This document discusses social networks and social network analysis. It begins by defining a network as a set of nodes connected by communication for information exchange. It then defines a social network as the social structure between individuals or organizations through social connections ranging from casual to close. The document outlines some popular social networking sites and discusses both the benefits and risks of social networks. It acknowledges that while social networks can help people connect and share interests, they also pose privacy and security risks if personal information is shared. In the end, it concludes that social networks can be good for society if proper precautions are taken, but individuals must make their own choice about participating based on their judgment and experiences.

Social Networks
No inventions of the 20th Century surpass the Internet, which is a modern-day vessel for communication, information, and entertainment, all rolled into one! It has greatly improved humanity’s ability to communicate effectively by time to response; it is often the principle source of information on any possible topic from baby care to auto mechanics. If you are seeking entertainment, just click on one of the million websites available. Now the Internet has entered a new realm, social networking with services which are said to enable their users to maintain and dissolve friendships online. Traditionally, an individual’s social networking needs, which date back to the beginning of mankind, were dependent on the individuals’ immediate environment and their interactions within (out) it; how they interacted with people in their community, school, or workplace. Online social networking has changed by expanding the environment for interaction from those named above to large and extensive networks that cover the world.
The following research paper attempts to explore the advent and evolution of social networking sites, their benefits and the dangers of online social networking sites as it relates to human relations. It also aims to determine whether social networking sites enable people to form effective bonds, or is it actually the destroyer of human interactions by reducing man to man contact, as well as the erosion of privacy.
The dictionary definition of the word “effective” is “successful in producing a desired or intended result” also defined as “existing in fact, though not formally acknowledged as such (Oxford dictionaries, 2011).” To effectively achieve a desired goal or result, all the necessary conditions must be availed and adhered to, failure to which, this goal will not be accomplished. For example for one’s studies to be effective, the learner should be focused in all ways, right from attending lessons, timely completion and submission of assignments.
Various issues demand some conditions so as to achieve a given goal. This seems sometimes as part of the main idea, that is the lack of it implies part of the deal is not there hence partial accomplishment. An example of this is a vehicle for one to effectively travel; all the components of the vehicle, such as fuel, tire, and other parts of the vehicle must be in good condition for the journey to be a success. Therefore effectiveness is reached after accomplishing these stipulations.
As for the research topic, it is evident that for people to meet and communicate effectively they must exist social networks, that will help link and bring them together to a site where they can exchange ideas in the process of knowing each other, something which takes place with time. For effective communication in these websites, a lot need to be availed, so as to enable these individuals communicate effectively. Such components include, an open minded person, ready to fully discuss .

Effects of Social Media on Young AdultsRatan Rajpal
Social media has taken the world by storm through dozens of websites, mobile apps, and other forms of technologies improving the way people communicate with each other. There are social media sites that have millions of members allowing them to share photos, videos, text messages, and more on a regular basis. There are a large number of advantages and disadvantages to using such sites that leave researchers wondering if we are better off without it. Has social media improved or damaged the way people connect with each other?

Social networking platforms may offer a strong and easily available arsenal for identifying and pursuing topics and causes that concern and influence, young people. A larger audience can be made aware of issues and perspectives by using social networking platforms to organize activities, events, or organizations. Managing band activities, and charity events, and raising awareness of various issues, for instance.

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.

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!

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).

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.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
3. Social Networks
How do you explain to say somebody what
Social Network is ? What Social Network
Analysis is ?
Network Analysis is the keyword
For the 21st Century
Researchers , Politicians , People talk
about Networks around you.
How do you explain what network is?
4. What is a Network ?
Web Definition : A set of nodes, points, or locations connected by
means of
data, voice, and video communications for the purpose
of
exchange.
5. Social Networks
A social network is a
description of the social
structure between actors,
mostly individuals or
organizations. It indicates
the ways in which they
are connected through
various social familiarities
ranging from casual
acquaintance to close
familiar bonds.
8. Good
Social networking made
communication much
easier.
Friends and family now
have a quicker, cheaper
way of keeping in touch,
making important
relationships easier to
maintain.
Site help you keep in touch
with friends you already
have, but they also help
you form new relationships.
9. Good
People can find others who share
the same interests or hobbies.
Bring together people from all
different cultures and races:
breaking down boundaries that
may otherwise exist in everyday
life.
Sites gives bands to build up a fan
base and show off their talent.
Using the Internet for personal use
can increase your productivity at
work by up to 9%.
Sites, can help you land a job.
10. Bad
People can use these sites to
prey on the naive and vunerable.
Sensitive information like:dates of
birth, addresses, marital statuses,
and jobs. All of this can be used
against you by a fraudster.
It is also easier for people to
harass, stalk and bully you
through these sites.
People could invent fake
businesses or products and
advertise them on social
networking sites, in a bid to take
your money.
11. Final judgment
The dangers with using social
networking sites are very serious , in
my opinion they are good for our
society as long as the correct
precautions are taken.
However, when it comes down to
whether social networking is right for
you that is something only you can
decide, using your own judgment and
past experiences.
Before becoming a member of a
social networking website do your
homework on what they have to offer
