Agile Assessment of the Aquifer American Social History Onlineguest6a8e0d
The document summarizes an agile assessment conducted for the development of the Aquifer American Social History Online portal. Over 8 weeks, the assessment involved interviews with 8 participants including faculty, graduate students, and librarians. The interviews focused on users' workflows, needs for browsing, searching, and reviewing content. Feedback from participants prioritized tasks like improving date filtering, preview options, and social networking features. The assessment informed priority tasks and helped gain user buy-in for the portal's iterative development process.
The document discusses communication as an institution from an anthropological perspective. It defines communication as the establishment of coded relations between a speaker and receiver where the receiver can become a speaker. An anthropological approach studies the common, unwritten laws of coexistence within communities. The document analyzes whether communication fits the criteria of an institution by examining its tools (sign systems), activities (speech acts), functions (socialization, pleasure, healing), norms (influenced by language habits), and laws (pragmatic principles of communication). It ultimately argues that communication demonstrates the arrangements to be considered an institution according to an anthropological framework.
This document discusses how to make money with online content in a simple way by charging for content instead of relying on advertising revenue from free content. It argues that relying solely on Google for traffic and AdSense for revenue is risky because Google can change its algorithms or policies at any time. While niche content targeting the "long tail" is possible, most people will not make meaningful money that way by giving content away for free. Instead, the document advocates creating valuable content once and then selling it repeatedly to customers by building a community around paid content offerings.

1) Necrologies traditionally followed certain norms and conventions regarding format and content, serving as notices of death and funeral details.
2) However, the document discusses how necrologies have begun shifting from a spatial deixis focused on funeral rites to a discourse deixis that introduces aspects of the deceased's lifestyle and implicitly challenges traditional funeral norms in Bulgaria.
3) This shift generates deviations from norms in some modern necrologies, such as less somber tones, inclusion of personal details, and in some cases explicit violations through insulting language.

The document summarizes the DLF Aquifer initiative's American Social History Online project. It discusses the project's goals of aggregating digital collections to make them easier for scholars to access as a single collection. It provides an overview of the project accomplishments to date, as well as next steps, and introduces the core team members and technologies used.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against developing mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already have a condition.
El resumen cuenta la historia de dos jóvenes que le preguntan a un anciano sobre las personas que viven en un pueblo cercano a un oasis. El anciano les da la misma respuesta a ambos, pero de forma diferente dependiendo de cómo describieron las personas de donde venían. Un tercer hombre pregunta al anciano cómo puede dar respuestas tan diferentes a la misma pregunta. El anciano explica que cada uno ve el mundo según su propia actitud mental, la cual es lo único sobre lo que cada persona tiene control absoluto.

TinyMessenger is an event aggregator that allows for loosely coupled communication between classes. It provides a central hub for publishing and subscribing to messages. Classes can publish messages to the hub asynchronously, and subscribe to receive specific messages by message type or predicate. Subscriptions return a token that can be used to unsubscribe. Messages are simple classes that implement an interface. Proxies can also be used to deliver messages in a specific context like a UI thread.
The goal of the Computer Science PhD program at Carnegie Mellon University is to nurture students' raw talent and intellect through research and coursework to produce well-educated researchers and future leaders in the field. The program takes about 6 years to complete on average and has areas of research including algorithms, artificial intelligence, databases, robotics, security, and more. To earn a PhD, students must complete coursework, serve as a teaching assistant twice, write and defend a thesis on original research.

Контрольный список для предотвращения атак программ-вымогателейCisco Russia
Готова ли ваша организация к отражению атак? Не тратьте время на обдумывание стратегии защиты. Приведенная ниже таблица поможет вам защититься от этих атак.
Программы-вымогатели — вредоносное ПО, которое шифрует информацию (документы, фотографии, музыку) на личном или корпоративном компьютере. И требует выкуп за расшифровку файлов и получение доступа к ним.
Программы-вымогатели: все, что нужно знать об этом виде угрозCisco Russia
Вы заняты. Вы устали. Вы хотите сыграть в Pokémon Go или открыть страницу в интранет-сети вашей компании. Причина не имеет значения. Щелкая Remind me later (Напомнить позже) в окне с запросом об установке обновлений, вы упрощаете задачу для авторов программ-вымогателей.
Но это лишь один из путей проникновения таких программ в вашу систему. Злоумышленники широко применяют вредоносную рекламу, фишинговые письма и даже сложные схемы на основе USB-накопителей. Рассмотрим подробнее один из самых распространенных сценариев.
