Speed is Essential for a Great Web ExperienceDigicure ApS
Andy Davies' slides fra Digicures web performance seminar på Bella Sky, 24. oktober 2012.
Den engelske ekspert og freelance konsulent, Andy Davies, har været bidt af emnet om god web performance siden 90'erne. Andy hjælper virksomheder med at måle, analysere og forbedre performance og stabiliteten af deres websites.
Selvom hastighed er vigtig for en god online oplevelse, bliver det ofte overset. Andy Davies vil fortælle hvordan hastighed påvirker brugeroplevelsen på et website og afdække hvordan hastighed kan måles og analyseres.
Slides from my Ignite (20 slides, auto-advancing every 15 secs) talk at WebPerfDays, Mountain View.
Not sure they will make sense standalone but talk was recorded and will be available at some point.
Would also like to work this up into a longer talk at some point.

Where 2.0 — Native vs Web vs Hybrid: Mobile Development ChoicesJason Grigsby
Examining the landscape of the mobile development, the hidden challenges of the iPhone app store, and the middle way provided by hybrid applications.
Presented at Where 2.0 in San Jose, March 31, 2010
Your visitors interact with content, not with your website. Content consistency is crucial to a successful user experience. Re-publishing is one option but it’s an inside-out action that relies on the authority controlling where the information goes. An API frees your data and the responsibility to where it is published and accessed. Mobile is a major consumer for your API but not every API is setup to handle the mass of requests coming from those devices. Learn how to mobile devices consume API’s with limited or low bandwidth and how to to tailor your API to be as efficient and effective as possible.

We are obsessed with coding and creating automated workflows and optimisations. And yet our final products aren't making it easy for people to use them. Somewhere, we lost empathy for our end users and other developers. Maybe it is time to change that. Here are some ideas.
PWA are a hot topic and it is important to understand that they are a different approach to apps than the traditional way of packaging something and letting the user install it. In this keynote you'll see some of the differences.
Keynote at halfstackconf 2017 discussing the falsehood of the idea that in order to survive the automation evolution everybody needs to learn how to code. Machines can code, too.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
