Not sure about something? And that something affects the detailed design, an architectural decision or choice of functionality? Does that feel like a problem or a part of the solution?
There is a strong tendency for humans to feel unsure about uncertainty, in two minds over ambiguity and a little wobbly with instability. Whether over technology choice, implementation options, requirements or schedule, uncertainty is normally seen as something you must either suppress or avoid. Of this many people appear, well,
certain. That you should embrace it and use it to influence schedule, identify risk and inform design is not immediately obvious. A lack of certainty offers the opportunity to highlight risk and reframe questions, making uncertainty part of the solution rather than necessarily a problem.
Arpad Ray's PHPNW08 slides:
Looking at websites from the perspective of potential attackers is a useful technique not only for security professionals.
This talk demonstrates how to use simple PHP scripts to exploit many common security holes in PHP applications, hopefully giving developers a deeper understanding of what it is they are protecting against.
* Getting around common precautions against SQL injection
* Free spam with SMTP injection
* Making a malicious website to exploit PHP sessions
* The holes every attacker hopes for
* Making use of a newly exploited website
Johannes Schlüter's PHPNW08 slides:
The current PHP version, PHP 5.3 introduced a multitude of new language features, most notably namespaces and late static binding, new extensions such as phar, as well as numerous other improvements. Even so, this power-packed release boasts better performance than older PHP releases. This talk will give you a good overview about PHP 5.3 and show some less known features in detail.
Derick Rethans' PHPNW08 key note slides:
One of PHP’s strengths has always been its low barrier-of-entry. It’s also one of its weaknesses however. In this keynote I will talk about the first steps of getting to know PHP, its community and developers. Of course times have changed now, and we are in the Web 2.0 era now, but the KISS principle still applies; for application design, for UI design and for server set-ups. I will also take you to the application development side of the KISS principle, with simpler architectures you can more easily make powerful complex applications.
Ciarán Walsh's PHPNW08 slides:
In the right hands regular expressions can be a powerful tool, but it’s also far too easy for them to be used badly, or in the wrong situations.
This talk will kick off with a look at alternatives to regular expressions, for when the power of pattern matching is not required, and will also go over some cases when there are better alternatives available.
Then there will be a brief refresher on pattern syntax and some general tips and tricks to help when constructing regular expressions, before we go on to look at some situations where the use of pattern matching is a good fit, how to solve some common problems, and some common pitfalls when writing patterns.
Zoe Slattery's slides from PHPNW08:
The ability to store large quantities of local data means that many applications require some form of text search and retrieval facility. From the point of view of the application developer there are a number of choices to make, the first is whether to use a complete packaged solution or whether to use one of the available information libraries to build a custom information retrieval (IR) solution. In this talk I’ll look at the options for PHP programmers who choose to embed IR facilities within their applications.
For Java programmers there is clearly a good range of options for text retrieval libraries, but options for PHP programmers are more limited. At first sight for a PHP programmer wishing to embed indexing and search facilities in their application, the choice seems obvious - the PHP implementation of Lucene (Zend Search Lucene). There is no requirement to support another language, the code is PHP therefore easy for PHP programmers to work with and the license is commercially friendly. However, whilst ease of integration and support are key factors in choice of technology, performance can also be important; the performance of the PHP implementation of Lucene is poor compared to the Java implementation.
In this talk I’ll explain the differences in performance between PHP implementation of Lucene and the Java implementation and examine the other options available to PHP programmers for whom performance is a critical factor.

Once you have your query returning the correct results, speed becomes an important factor. Speed can either be an issue from the outset, or can creep in as your dataset grows. Understanding the EXPLAIN command is essential to helping you solve and even anticipate slow queries.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
