The document discusses people's growing reliance and addiction to mobile technology. It notes that 77% of UK teens experience nomophobia or cell phone addiction. When we receive texts or notifications, dopamine is released in our brains giving us pleasure. As a result, people are constantly checking their phones to get this feeling. However, this leads us to miss face-to-face interactions and be unaware of our real-world surroundings. The average person now carries their phone with them 97% of the time and a large percentage of mobile internet use is for social media like Facebook and Instagram. While technology keeps us connected, overreliance on screens can diminish real-world interactions if unchecked.
As the internet population has matured over time, binary distinctions between those who are online and offline have given way to a more robust understanding of the assets, actions and attitudes that affect user experience. Nearly ten years' worth of research conducted by The Pew Internet & American Life Project examines the growing role of technology in our lives, our changing expectations about how to find and use information, and the impact these changes will have on libraries and other institutions in the future.
MLK Day 2014: Social Media, Community Building, and ActivismMarie K. Shanahan
In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy in community building and helping people peacefully reconcile differing points of view, the Windsor Historical Society and Archer Memorial AME Zion Church in Windsor, CT invited me to talk about social media, and how it has changed activism and community building. This presentation is from January 20, 2014. See "notes" tab for the presentation script.
Do you really know who's watching you? With the prevalence of the smartphone in today's society, do you know how your apps, carriers, and products are affecting your security? This is an important topic that is facing all generations on mobile devices.
The word connections has lost its true meaning and now due to technology and social media is more directed to internet and wifi access. We need to bring the word connections back to personal physical connections.
It’s no secret that mobile devices have taken over when it comes to digital content. Email, apps, podcasts and more are constantly warring for our attention in an ongoing battle that can be as ruthless as a show you may have heard of… So travel with us to a digital Westeros and see which medium will reign on the mobile battlefield.

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.
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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
