“Resurrecting Lost Voices: DIY Digital Archiving” PowerPoint PresentationStan Prager
“Resurrecting Lost Voices: DIY Digital Archiving” PowerPoint Presentation. On July 30, 2016 Stan Prager did a presentation at History Camp at Holyoke Community College on the letters of George W. Gould and digital archiving techniques. The complete PowerPoint presentation is available here, although it lacks the audio narration. More info at www.resurrectinglostvoices.com
This document discusses the debate around digitizing paper documents versus continuing traditional paper storage. It notes that paper records are vulnerable to theft, loss, natural disasters and lack proper security controls. Digital storage provides backups across multiple secure servers, reducing risk of permanent loss. Privacy and compliance with laws like FERPA are also easier with digital files that can restrict access more precisely than paper files. While there is a cost to digital storage, the document claims paper storage has much higher hidden costs relating to storage, retrieval and compliance. It introduces YellowFolder as a solution specifically designed for K-12 schools to securely digitize and manage records in the cloud.
Rivonia Trial Dictabelt Project, Save Your Archive, Gerrit Wagener, Brenda Ko...FIAT/IFTA
The document discusses the Rivonia Trial Dictabelt Project, which aims to digitize 591 dictabelt recordings of the 1963-1964 Rivonia Trial in South Africa. The recordings document the landmark trial of Nelson Mandela and other anti-apartheid activists. Due to their age and fragility, the dictabelts could only be played on obsolete machines and were at risk of being lost. The project received funding from FIAT/IFTA's Save Your Archives program to have the recordings digitized by INA in France. This important collaboration between South African and French archives will preserve this pivotal part of South African history and make it permanently accessible.

Water is the most common cause of damage to library materials. When water damage occurs, rapid response is essential to effectively recover collections. Wet materials begin distorting immediately and are at risk of mold growth. The first steps are to remove standing water, assess damage, and freeze or air dry wet items. Very wet materials should be frozen within 6-8 hours to prevent mold. Partially wet items can be air dried or interleaved with blotting materials. Proper preparation includes assigning responders, prioritizing collections, and having disaster response kits prepared.

Abstract: Roughly 30.6 million individuals in the US have physical disabilities that affect their ambulatory activities; nearly half of those individuals report using an assistive aid such as a wheelchair, cane, crutches, or walker. Despite comprehensive civil rights legislation, many city streets, sidewalks, and businesses remain inaccessible. The problem is not just that street-level accessibility affects where and how people travel in cities but also that there are few, if any, mechanisms to determine accessible areas of a city a priori.
In this talk, I will describe our research developing novel, scalable data-collection methods for acquiring accessibility information about the built environment using a combination of crowdsourcing, computer vision, and online map imagery (e.g., Google Street View). Our overarching goal is to transform the ways in which accessibility information is collected and visualized for every sidewalk, street, and building façade in the world. This work is in collaboration with University of Maryland Professor David Jacobs and graduate students Kotaro Hara and Jin Sun along with a number of undergraduate students and high school interns.

Scaling Design Through Relationship Maps (Michael Polivka at DesignOps Summit...Rosenfeld Media
This document discusses scaling design through relationship maps. It begins by outlining how design tools and responsibilities have evolved from linear/waterfall processes to being iterative/agile and cross-organizational. It then discusses how design is growing within companies, but also faces growing pains in moving from individual to system-level design. Design operations (DesignOps) is introduced as a layer of management between designers and companies. The rest of the document focuses on relationship maps, describing them as beyond traditional org charts in identifying cross-company stakeholders to promote meaningful change. It emphasizes that relationships are key to success, and provides a case study of creating a relationship map to implement InVision at Autodesk.
Alan McLean is a developer and journalist who has worked on interactive news projects at the New York Times since 2007. He discusses challenges with the traditional developer-newsroom relationship where projects are handed off late in the process. McLean advocates for developers to work more closely with journalists from the start of projects to focus on stories rather than just features. He also recommends techniques like rapid prototyping, using cloud services, and prioritizing content over pixel-perfect designs to enable faster iteration and collaboration between teams.
If you're running a tech start-up, it's essential that you familiarize yourself with the fundamentals of web development. Ultimately knowing how to "talk to the talk" will help you communicate better with developers, and overall just look really cool.
In this hour and a half long workshop, Chris Castiglione, experienced developer and founder of One Month Rails, will tackle some development principles and answer questions to get you on the right path, such as, "Front-end vs. Back-end?", "Is UX necessary for my project?", "What is this Javascript function thingy, and why am I passing it strange math equations to it?" He will also have you coding a bit yourself!
Leading a development team (without being a developer yourself) can sometimes feels like talking about dancing, and so this is an interactive and friendly environment in which to learn the basics. Come with questions, and a desire to have fun!

Startupfest 2012 - Coefficients of frictionStartupfest
It must have been amazing to live when the steam engine was invented. For millennia, human enterprise has tried to do one thing: overcome the friction of the physical world. From the first wheel and the earliest lever, to the structure of representative government and the design of broadcast TV, we’ve been fighting friction since we crawled out of the primordial ooze. That steam engine promised spare muscle, a beast of burden than never complained. Machinery would set us free. As it turned out, we were wrong. The answer wasn’t a better way to overcome friction—it was a move to the near-frictionless world of electrons. Today, every edifice we’ve erected to fight friction is crumbling in the face of a frictionless future. Join Alistair Croll for a wild romp through the economics of abundance, augmented humanity, home manufacturing, firing before aiming, coal supplies, education, and more, and see why there is simply no better time in human history to be a disruptor.
This document discusses programming and the web development process. It begins by defining programming as a set of instructions to solve a problem, using the example of instructions for making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. It then discusses why learning programming is important. The rest of the document outlines the typical steps in the web development process, including user experience design, information architecture, visual design, and development. It provides examples of each step and timelines for hypothetical web projects.
Breaking News and Breaking Software by Andy HumeSyncConf
The Guardian publishes around 350 articles of content a day. Hardly 'big data'. We deal with barely 150 million users a month. Facebook (with it's 600 million users on mobile alone), we ain't. But we do have to serve the news, and we do have to serve it fast, accurately, and on time, across multiple platforms and devices.
For a company that's 192 years old, we like to think we're pretty Agile. So what do our development teams care about? What kind of qualities are we optimising for in our software and processes? How do we make sure that when the news is breaking, our software isn't broken? Or if it is, how do we fix it fast?

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdfBen Linders
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.

Successes
Dynamic Content is often hidden behind php or javascript files which
the crawler is unable to access. Sometimes the crawler is able to
collect all of the necessary files, but is unable to display the viewing
interface.
