Autonomous robotics based on simplesensor inputs.sathish sak
A “robot” is explained as “a device that performs functions normally ascribed to humans” - Webster.
“Autonomous” means that the robot can work totally independently of itself, once it has been programmed, and it should be able to function without interaction from any human influence. Many robots are used nowadays to work in conditions where it is inaccessible for humans to work and therefore need to be autonomous.
The aim of this project is to program a robot (shown left) using PIC (peripheral interface controller) chips, so that it will utilise its infra red sensors and run its stepper motors to follow a boundary wall within an enclosed environment.
Steelcon 2014 - Process Injection with Pythoninfodox
This is the slides to accompany the talk given by Darren Martyn at the Steelcon security conference in July 2014 about process injection using python.
Covers using Python to manipulate processes by injecting code on x86, x86_64, and ARMv7l platforms, and writing a stager that automatically detects what platform it is running on and intelligently decides which shellcode to inject, and via which method.
The Proof of Concept code is available at https://github.com/infodox/steelcon-python-injection
Building New on Top of Old: The Argument for SimplicityNew Relic
The software industry is surrounded by complexity, with new solutions to old problems appearing daily. Creators of software constantly face questions about how to best navigate changing technology tides while still building their “ships". Building these ships, or building software, requires picking challenges and making sensible technical choices to move fast without compromising stability.
In this talk, GitHub’s Director of Systems Sam Lambert will explore how GitHub steers its ship—the world’s largest software host serving over 11M users—on top of stable, proven systems and services. He’ll speak specifically about how these practices can be translated to any type of software creation by focusing on:
-The importance of pragmatism during building and maintaining software systems.
-How a company like GitHub moves fast and breaks as little as possible by carefully choosing what problems to tackle.
-Why this simple path of choosing and solving problems can prove extremely useful.
The role new technologies can play in informing decisions and approaches around what problems to solve.

Scratching the itch, making Scratch for the Raspberry PieESUG
Title: Scratching the itch, making Scratch for the Raspberry Pie
Speaker: Tim Rowledge
Fri, August 22, 12:00pm – 12:30pm
Abstract: Scratch was originally written in a Squeak 2.8 era image. Much has changed since then and to make the Raspberry Pi run Scratch as well as possible we have ported the code forward to a 4.5 image so it can run on a StackVM; and soon a Cog VM. A substantial amount of Smalltalk code has had to be rewritten to do this and yet we have to maintain complete compatibility with the original system to avoid overloading the teachers that use it in their classes. A new branch of Cog for the ARM cpu is being written as well.
Bio: Tim Rowledge has almost 30 years of Smalltalk experience, and almost as much with ARM. Somehow the two have always gone together.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
