The document discusses startup metrics and provides a model called AARRR for measuring the success of a startup. The AARRR model focuses on Acquisition, Activation, Retention, Referral, and Revenue. It describes each step of the model and provides examples of metrics and goals for activation and retention, which involve getting users to engage with the product and come back to the site. The document also discusses approaches for testing features and marketing channels to improve conversions at each step of the AARRR model.

Someone once said "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it." General Duke Abernathy said "Knowing is Half the Battle." General Anthony Clement McAuliffe said "Nuts!"
All of these are true. History gives us insight into the human condition and provides lessons for all fields. Let's take a look at some of the stories of World War II - of strategies, tactics, technology, and planning - and how they relate to web design and development in higher education today. By the end, maybe we'll have a few insights on how to bridge the communication gaps between our audiences, our authors, and ourselves.

Ενίσχυση της αντιδιαρρηκτικής προστασίας με την ανακαίνιση σπιτιούdomi anakainisi
Στην εταιρεία μας ασχολούμαστε με ανακαινίσεις και έχουμε τη δυνατότητα όταν αναλάβουμε την ανακαίνιση του σπιτιού σας να αυξήσουμε την ασφάλεια αυτού και την αντιδιαρρηκτική προστασία.
Διαθέτουμε τις καλύτερες τεχνικές αντιδιαρρηκτικής προστασίας που μπορούν να εφαρμοστούν σε ένα σπίτι κατά την ανακαίνιση σαυτού.
Μάθετε περισσότερα στην ιστοσελίδα μας στο άρθρο για την ανακαίνιση και αντιδιαρρηκτική προστασία:
https://www.domi-anakainisi.gr/news/item/13-enisxisi-tis-antidiarriktikis-prostasias-me-tin-anakainisi-spitiou
Πολλοί άνθρωποι εδώ ίσως αναρρωτηθούν. Ας υποθέσουμε ότι κατά την ανακαίνιση του σπιτιού μου αγοράζω την ασφαλέστερη πόρτα της αγοράς. Θα πληρώσω αυξημένο κόστος για την ασφαλή πόρτα μου. Μετά από δυο - τρία χρόνια θα βγουν νέες ασφαλέστερες πόρτες και τα χρήματα που έδωσα θα εξανεμιστούν; Θα πρέπει να αγοράσω πάλι νέα πόρτα ώστε να είμαι ασφαλής;
Ευτυχώς η απάντηση είναι αρνητική. Δεν χρειάζεται αγορά νέας πόρτας. Μόνο οι κλειδαριές αλλάζουν. Οι εταιρείες που κατασκευάζουν κλειδαριές γνωρίζουν ότι εξελίσσεται το έγκλημα και κατασκευάζουν συνεχώς νέες κλειδαριές. Μετά από λίγα χρόνια μπορούμε να αναβαθμίσουμε την κλειδαριά. Η αναβάθμιση σημαίνει ότι κάτι μπαίνει ως πρόσθετο, χωρίς να χρειαστεί να αλλάξουμε την κλειδαριά. ή μπορούμε να τοποθετήσουμε πιο σύγχρονο αφαλό. Ο αφαλός βρίσκεται στο εσωτερικό της κλειδαριάς, το σημείο που μπαίνει το κλειδί. Οι εταιρεία που χρησιμοποιούμε στις πόρτες που τοποθετούμε μας δίνει όλες αυτές τις δυνατότητες αναβάθμισης ώστε πάντα να έχετε πολύ ασφαλή κλειδαριά στη θωρακισμένη πόρτα σας.

How to VC: Creating a VC fund portfolio modelDave McClure
This article aims to help VCs figure out how to size a venture capital fund, how many companies to include in your portfolio, and when and how to do follow-on investments. Most VCs aim to make a 3X (net) return on initial fund capital, at a ~20% net IRR. Note however, likely less than 10% of most VC funds achieve that goal.
Basic concepts of marketing and branding for venture capital. Emphasis on competitive differentiation (aka "How are you different/better than other VCs in your category?"). Specific focus on defining areas of "value add" that aren't BS.

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).

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.
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.
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.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*
