Media's Discursive Influence on the Philippines' War on DrugsMark Raygan Garcia
The presentation analyzes the discursive influence of Philippine media on the government's war on drugs, and the interplay of power between media and government. It also examines the buffering effect of the Duterte administration's populist approach to leadership on alleged media's undermining (direct or indirect) of its campaign against drugs.

Deer in the headlights – Informationsüberflutung und wie man damit umgehen könnte: 3 Thesen
Eine der interessantesten Debatten rund um Informationstechnologien im allgemeinen und das Web im besonderen ist die zur "Informationsüberflutung". Frank Schirrmacher führt sie zur Zeit ausufernd mit seinem Buch Payback und durch eine Reihe von Texten in der FAZ. Den Hintergrund liefert das Portal edge.org (http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/schirrmacher09/schirrmacher09_index.html). Ich glaube, dass auch die Buchbranche von dieser Debatte lernen kann, denn was sind Bücher anderes als Informationsvermittler? Vor- und zugleich auch Nachteil jeden Buches ist aber die Hermetik, die mit dem Format einhergeht. Ein klassisches Buch kann man nicht "updaten", man kann ihm keine Informationen hinzufügen und die Menge an Text ist allein durch die Seitenzahl stark begrenzt. Ein Buch verlangt also nur eine überschaubare Aufmerksamkeitsmenge, wohingegen das Netz potentiell unendlich viel Aufmerksamkeit verlangt. Schirrmacher hat also zumindest in diesem Punkt recht: Potentiell tendiert das Web als Medium hin zu einer nur durch Algorithmen und (auch sprachlichen) Codes reglementierten Un-fassbarkeit. Es gibt zwei Wege, damit umzugehen. Der eine ist das Prinzip Deer-in-the-headlights: Die Informationslawine rollt unkontrolliert auf uns zu und wir lassen uns schreckstarr unter diesen Informationen begraben. Das ist der eine Weg, die Kapitulation vor der schieren Menge an Information.
Ich schlage einen anderen Weg vor. Das Web bietet nicht nur unendlich viel Information, es bietet auch Tools und Strategien, diese Information in klar abgesteckten, für einen selbst relevanten Arealen zu bewältigen. Dazu ist es aber nötig, klare Ziele vor Augen zu haben und zu wissen, wie Information sich strukturell im Internet fortpflanzt, sich dezentral vermehrt.

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.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
