City Games: Up and Down and Sideways on the Ladder of AbstractionSebastian Deterding
Like games and everyday life, games and cities have been intersecting in two primary ways: modelling the city in an abstract view from above, with planning games and urban simulations, and transforming people's everyday urban experiences and behaviors with playful interventions on the ground. Neither one, this talk argues, has been particularly successful in creating lasting improvements in citizen's well being. To accomplish this, we need to take game design seriously and look sideways at the messy middle between map and territory, the processes in which one is translated into the other (or not).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

4. NDSM
Various levels of participation, of (co)ownership
Similar to nature, NDSM is in constant flux, of
shifting the balance between the different
participators of the space
A microcosm of
The NDSM holds
different needs,
companies, artist studio’s,
functions,
leisure activities like a

skatepark, tourist hotspot,
frequencies of
various events, etc
occupation
5. The diversity dilemma of the NDSM
How to enhance the perceived
relevance for active intermarriage
of permanent community hubs
and welcoming ad hoc participants?
7. Visible community hub identities
conditions for ‘open end’ (co)ownership
no prescribed participation
opportunities for ambiguous interaction
iterate towards a playful NDSM
8. Diversity has a strong affordance for
intermarriage
Closely knitted communities paired with visibility
of (co)ownership stimulate open ended
resourceful participation.
Intercommunal exchange can be stimulated
through utilized situated mobile communication
and locative tools that don’t require continuous
attention
17. After my first week of working for the Noorderlicht restaurant, my boss
gives me a token that he is wearing on his wrist too, it is a beautiful and
very nicely made object that I have seen with other coworkers as well. I am
really proud being part of this group of people and wear the token all the
time. It simply looks great and has a nice feel to it.
When my friends ask me about the token and where he can get one, I invite
him over to the restaurant because I know that dear friends and some
customers can get a similar token that is slightly different than the one I
have received. At their second visit, even though I was not working, my
friends get the best table and a complementary order because my
colleagues recognize their token.
Two weeks later, during the first big festival I notice a lot of people with
similar tokens to mine, we all have a festival token too that I got as an
entrance ticket. One of my friends is wearing his Noorderlicht and the
festival token in combination with another variation. He tells me that this
one belongs to the skatepark family and gives him a discount when he goes
skating.
20. During the day I met somebody who has his own studio on the NDSM and
his token is the coolest one I have seen so far, it is a subscription for a
discount to all the events of the NDSM. He shows me a mobile application
that he could download when checkin in at his first festival via Foursquare
at one of the previous festivals. There are a lot of of photos in the app
stream and a few of them are posted by one most regular clients. I was
already wondering why this person did not wear a token, apparently some
people choose be part of our group only by digital means.
After installing the app I can only read the several group streams, but after
entering a combination puzzle of symbols that are on my token I am
allowed to comment and post my own media. I never thought these
symbols would have any use, the symbols are also part of a sculpture close
to the Noordelicht entrance,
There is a distinct Noordelicht icon on my profile that merged into another
shape after I join the festival group, again by solving a simple symbolic
puzzle. Now my uploads are also showing up in the other group, where one
of my pictures is commented on by a member, who is also participating in a
little yoga gathering that is located on the NDSM terrain, immediately I sign
up for their try out lessens.
After a couple of weeks the NDSM has shown me so many more
opportunities than I thought were around during my first visit and I start to
explore them more actively.
22. 3 months later my profile icon is one of the most diverse of the several
communities and I get an invitation to a unfamiliar place on the NDSM to
pick up a present. I really have no idea what that could possibly be but am
really curious.
I come earlier to work the next day and try to find the place. There is this
no sign and the building is not very inviting but there are people inside that
hand me a little package after I show them the invitation. It is a token that I
have never seen before.
There is something really special about it even though it is the most
minimal and unimposing token compared to the others. Looking around I
see somebody who is sitting on a table littered with tools, working on the
finishing touches of a token.
From this point on I keep getting special invites and can simply walk into
any paid event on the NDSM.

Editor's Notes
In our opinion a successful interdisciplinary workshop is a workshop that is open ended and aims towards breaking down the barriers between the participants, establishing an evolving culture of collaboration and knowledge exchange.\n
Goodmorning everyone welcome to our workshop!\n\nAfter this kick off everyone will get the opportunity to introduce him/herself, so then you will know what we know already: \nthat there is a huge amount of knowledge assembled here, \nand that all this knowledge will be divided in teams that each have very specific combinations of experience on board.\n
