5 whys - The Path to Resolution
This document discusses the 5 Whys technique for problem solving and root cause analysis. It begins by providing examples of problems and outages experienced by companies. It then discusses common reactions to problems and the benefits of the team advancement approach. The document explains that the 5 Whys technique involves asking "why" five times to determine the root cause of a problem. It provides an example of using 5 Whys for a late delivery issue. The document outlines the history and potential pitfalls of the 5 Whys approach. It recommends an approach for effectively utilizing 5 Whys in a group setting.
Five Whys Lessons Learned
The document discusses lessons learned from introducing the "five whys" technique, which is used to identify root causes of problems, at the company IGN. Some key lessons included focusing five whys sessions on new problems, clearly explaining the process to newcomers, documenting sessions on a wiki for follow up, and designating people as "five whys masters" responsible for leading sessions and ensuring proportional investments are made to address root causes. Later lessons involved using project tracking software instead of wikis for follow up and scaling the process with additional masters.

Agile Mindset for Your Startup: From Vision to Viability
This is the presentation Jeffrey Beir & I gave at Harvard Innovation Lab on 7/23/2013.
You’ve got a big idea addressing a huge market opportunity - should be no problem getting financed and building a successful company. But that’s not how real companies get built. In the engineering world, agile has replaced traditional waterfall methodologies because it lowers risk, improves predictability and allows for mid-course correction. The same applies when thinking about how you build your business.
Abby and Jeffrey will present a framework for building your business with an agile mindset and explain why most companies should be built this way...

This document provides tips on how to stop procrastinating tasks. It discusses that procrastination is the act of delaying tasks that need to be done. Some common reasons for procrastinating include a lack of motivation, poor time management, distractions, and a fear of starting tasks. The document recommends setting goals, using a calendar or to-do list to manage time better, breaking large tasks into smaller steps, and doing short tasks first to build motivation. Overcoming procrastination also involves identifying non-urgent tasks to avoid distraction and focusing on the most important 2-3 tasks each day.

The Five-Second Rules: Ensuring a Healthy Five-Second Test
UXPA 2013 Annual Conference Wednesday July 10, 2013 4:30pm - 5:30pm ET by Paul Doncaster
Online five-second testing tools promise valuable response data that that can inform UX designs, but that value can be compromised by ignoring the restrictions of the method and designing the tests accordingly.
An analysis of more than 300 "crowdsourced" five-second tests showed that most tests are designed to encourage responses like "I don't recall" or "I cannot answer this".
From this analysis, rules and guidelines were developed and tested to increase the likelihood of obtaining useful data.
Asking Questions and Writing Effectively
This presentation is all about how asking questions drives an investigation and how to use the answers obtained to create an effective writeup.
StangaOne1_A_Guide_for_Everyone
The document provides guidelines for proper task estimation in 7 steps: 1) Review requirements and assets, 2) Define major tasks, 3) Break down work needed to complete each task, 4) Define sub-tasks step-by-step, 5) Estimate each sub-task, 6) Improve estimates by tracking time spent on similar tasks, and 7) Compare estimates to actual time and identify reasons for deviations. It emphasizes providing personal estimates based on individual work velocity and collecting data to continually improve estimates.

Organizations that Scale
The document discusses how to build organizations that can scale. It emphasizes starting with a solid foundation by defining the organization's mission, vision, principles and practices, and establishing strong leadership and authenticity. It also stresses the importance of culture and removing politics, negativity, and "not my job" attitudes that can undermine growth. Additional recommendations include adding experienced managers, autonomy, accountability, and ownership while avoiding too many programming languages and internal competition that damages morale and output. The key is iterating the culture over time through documentation, review, and rewarding exemplars of the desired culture.
Architecting teams that scale
The document discusses architecting teams that can scale. It emphasizes starting with clear mission, principles, context and expectations. It also stresses the importance of culture, having at least one world-class person, and balancing what teams do with how they do it. Teams should drive processes explicitly rather than implicitly and add experienced managers, autonomy and ownership while removing politics and negativity.
Avoiding the Pitfalls of Vanity Metrics
The document discusses the pitfalls of using "vanity metrics" which look good on paper but don't provide meaningful information. It provides examples of vanity metrics like release timelines filled with unrealistic assumptions. Large companies often focus on vanity metrics that prioritize predictability over innovation, taking small safe steps rather than risks. This can lead them to get stuck at local maxima rather than reaching their true maximum potential. The document advocates for focusing on learning and experimentation to drive growth rather than vanity metrics.
Expanding the Reach of Public Libraries
The document summarizes upcoming changes to the Ohio Public Library Information Network (OPLIN). Key points include:
- OPLIN is adopting new logos and redesigning its website to have a cleaner, simpler look.
- Libraries will continue to receive core databases for free through OPLIN but can also purchase additional databases through group contracts.
- OPLIN is transitioning from T1 lines to fiber optic broadband connections to improve network speeds statewide.
- Diagnostic phone lines are being removed to reduce costs, and network issues will now be addressed on-site.
- OPLIN will provide more support for libraries implementing web technologies through information sharing, training, and potential web hosting services.

Vietnam Conflict Mini Research
The Vietcong were the military wing of the National Liberation Front and used guerilla warfare tactics against the United States during the Vietnam War. They received weapons from China including AK-47s to use against infantry and rocket propelled grenades to use against tanks. The Vietcong would avoid direct battles, instead launching surprise hit-and-run ambushes and traps from tunnels and hidden bases before retreating into rural jungles. Their main strategy was to wear down the American forces over a long period through these guerilla tactics.

Federated Search: Growing Your Own Tools
Libraries spend a considerable amount of money each year on subscriptions to proprietary databases of online information. The most efficient way to access these expensive resources is through a federated search tool, but due to a lack of speed and difficulty of use, some third party federated search products can leave both patrons and library staff dissatisfied. Solomon describes how OPLIN undertook the development of a federated search tool that is “Google-like” in nature and provides accurate results with fast response times. She shares the process used to create a unique tool that combines both open source and proprietary components that has resulted in significant increases in both searches and documents retrieved.

It discusses why libraries need a website and social media presence, how social media has changed communication from one-to-many to many-to-many. It provides tips for writing engaging social media posts, including using specific details and focusing on the patron experience rather than just promoting the library. It also warns against being too worried about negative interactions and encourages libraries to "own their own story."My Lai Massacredannydillon
On March 16, 1968, US troops massacred over 500 Vietnamese civilians in the village of My Lai during a search for enemy fighters. Troops rounded up and killed civilians, including women, children, and animals, through shooting, grenades, and bayonets. The massacre was successfully covered up for 18 months until reports surfaced in late 1969. Twenty-six soldiers were later charged with war crimes for their involvement, though only one, Lieutenant William Calley, was convicted for the murder of over 100 civilians. The massacre reduced US support for the Vietnam War and prompted widespread international outrage.

Agile Schmagile -- Jon Kern
The document discusses whether Agile practices are effective or not. It questions if the reader's team is performing well with Agile and what practices may have failed. It acknowledges that while Agile can be problematic, the principles may not be the root cause and introspection is needed. The document advocates focusing on people, processes, and tools holistically. It suggests educating oneself on successful teams and reflecting on one's own practices rather than blindly following Agile. Overall, it argues that Agile success depends more on individuals' mindsets and adaptiveness than any defined processes.
Presentation: What we did Right and Wrong with LGS
Looking Glass Solutions was a software development company that operated from 2002 to 2008 but ultimately closed down. It provided open source software development, training, and IT support services. While it had some successes over its lifespan, the company took on too many different types of work without proper focus or the right mix of skills. This led to issues like low pay, stressful financial situations, and burnout among employees. The company was able to make a living for a time but struggled with marketing, sales, accounting, and not having a clear business plan or exit strategy. While the experience provided valuable lessons, shutting down the business proved difficult with outstanding debts and liabilities to resolve.

The rest is split between induction and leadership training. It argues that graduates feel pressure to be leaders from day 1 and explores what followership means. Effective followership involves self-management, commitment, self-development, and courage. The document advocates making followership a core graduate competence through language, definitions, program design, and senior role models.

Enabling Autonomy at Spotify
This document discusses how Spotify enables autonomy through alignment and competence. It defines alignment as having a shared intent, rationale, and constraints, which Spotify achieves through company beliefs, goals, bets, tribe bets, and alignment sessions. Competence involves shared work beliefs and technical excellence, which Spotify fosters through engineering core beliefs, tutorials, coaching, and channels for technical discussion. While autonomy is a goal, the document notes it is a work in progress and principles need adapting to specific organizations rather than copying outright.

Why Most eLearning Fails: How to Create eLearning that Gets Results
Let’s admit it: most eLearning just plain sucks! The sad reality is that most eLearning courses require learners to sit through a disappointing experience, where information is poorly organized, the content isn’t relevant, and the interactions seem contrived and without purpose. This is compounded even more when the slideshow-like presentation is interrupted with several poorly written quiz questions and cheesy animations to make it all seem “fun.”
In this session, we will explore many of the reasons why most eLearning fails and the components that contribute to bad eLearning design. we will also explore how bad eLearning design can negatively affect the learning experience. Finally, this session will walk you through several practical methods you can immediately apply to fix your bad eLearning courses.
In this session, you will learn:
• When to implement a blended learning approach
• Why clicking doesn’t make interactivity meaningful
• Why good eLearning requires more than instructional design
• Why knowledge and behavior aren’t mutually exclusive

How to Achieve a Better Product Culture by Pinn VP of Platform
Main takeaways:
- How to make sure you're joining a company with a culture for success. Turnover for PMs can be high because, if there is an execution issue or political issue plaguing the company, PMs experience it without protection. However, we can also learn from those experiences to identify when a company and team will actually execute well.
- How to make sure you're hiring the right people. If you're going to be a Product Lead, I'll teach a key behavior trait that's vital. It dives into the "hire smart people, no jerks" but that's easier said than done. I'll share what to really look for and watch out for.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
