Data Mining Online Audiences with D8A Group
Using a combination of the data-analysis products available from D8A Group, we’ve been monitoring the unfolding events in real-time to illustrate the ways our technology platforms can be used by companies, PR firms, marketing agencies, political groups, celebrities, and NGOs to make data informed decisions in real-time crisis scenarios.
In this case study document, we analyze breaking news scenarios involving Chris Christie's Brigegate scandal, Kerry Washington's appearance at the Golden Globes, and the Knight Foundation who we weren't aware had any news events at the time, but we quickly became aware of two through the use of our software.
The primary purpose of using technologies like the D8A suite of analytic products is to monitor and capture real-time data for analysis and research. They are also predictive, helping to surface trends, patterns, and happenings before one might find out about them otherwise. D8A’s products work across multiple communication channels.

Film + TV Private Finance Insights 2022 [Report]
This report shares insights about how the Film/TV industry is evolving from a financial data perspective.
Insights were derived from hundreds of productions prior to release. This is the opposite of box office data, it's the financial data from Film/TV productions that prior to completion and release.
To respect the privacy of the individual filmmakers and producers, we have abstracted the names of each production analyzed.
SCALETECH 2022: What Scaling $300M Startups Taught me about Scaling $300M Movies
Jon Gosier's slides from a presentation given at Scaletech 2022 in Toronto, Canada on 10/13/2022.
Prior to FilmHedge, a fin-tech that has changed the way major Film and TV projects are financed, Jon founded programmatic advertising company Audigent which now dominates the 1st-party entertainment space.
Using 6 films (and one song) as an example, here are my tips for scaling from startup to growth-stage:
1. Zack and Miri - Vet your co-founder based on you mutual interest and obsessiveness at solving a problem
2. Suicide Squad - hire to compliment your weaknesses as a Founder
3. The Expendables - know when to cut your losses with a bad hire or someone in the wrong role
4. Moneyball - track everything, define KPIs (not just for the big obvious stuff), milestones are just KPIs over time, KPIs keep your team focused
5. The French Dispatch - your company's relationship with the press will change as you grow, use the press to help re-educate the market and change behavior
6. "Know When to Hold em/Fold em" - know when to get out of your own way as a Founder, to build something bigger than yourself (by definition) sometimes you don't even need to be there anymore (graduate as a founder).
7. Avengers: Endgame - know your 'endgame'. re you building for lifestyle, legacy, or a liquidity event/exit?

This paper outlines a study conducted in Mombasa, Kenya where real-time consumer data collection techniques (also known as known as big data, real-time data, crowdsourced data or open source data) were used to prove or disprove hypothesis about macroeconomic trends. It concludes that there are many reasons to feel confident that these techniques may serve as sufficient alternatives for economic forecasts in countries where traditional means of microeconomic data collection are sparse due to poor infrastructure and other circumstance. Further research is needed to verify the repeatability of these findings and the methods soundness statistically.

Using Predictive Analytics for Anticipatory Investigation and Intervention
The proliferation and adoption of data, sensors, mobile phones and social media technology present new ways of capturing conversations surrounding events in real-time. There is high demand for products that allow law enforcement and criminal investigators and others to explore events by monitoring many transmedia sources (social media sources like Facebook and Twitter, photos, news sources, and tweets) and relating that activity to historic data sets like neighborhood maps, crime databases and other digital records.

The proliferation and adoption of mobile phones and social media technologies presents new ways of capturing conversations surrounding crisis events in real-time. This allows researchers, analysts, and first-responders to explore events by monitoring many media sources (blogs, photos, web feeds, news sources, and tweets) from one environment.
The tragic situation unfolding in South Sudan is complex and evolving rapidly. The rate at which the fledgling state has descended into political and social unrest is distressing and highlights the need for urgent intervention. Thus, having ways to identify and engage influencers and to anticipate and potentially mitigate disastrous scenarios is greatly needed.
Using a combination of the data-analysis products available from D8A Group, we’ve been monitoring the unfolding events in real-time to illustrate ways our technology platforms can be used by NGOs, first-responders, civil society organizations and government agencies make data informed decisions in real-time in crisis scenarios.

Structuring Your Social Enterprise #FTW
One of the most intimidating things about being an entrepreneur or founder of an organization can be the first steps of incorporating and legally structuring things.
The good thing to note is that if you make a mistake at the beginning, its almost always addressable down the road (but it can require a lot of time or significant cost).
What's the best legal structure for your social enterprise? Why do these different models exist?

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support
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 Calisthenics
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).
Speakers:

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
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.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
