Speaker Check-in - 3 - Munich
This document provides guidance for presenters at DrupalCon on preparing for and delivering presentations. It covers room setup details, managing nerves, dealing with potential technical failures, and handling audience questions. Presenters are advised to practice their presentation multiple times, prepare backup options if technology fails, and focus on telling their story with passion despite potential issues.
Cooking Time
The document provides tips for effective time management when cooking or completing tasks. It recommends creating a to-do list categorized by urgency and importance, defining the time needed for each task, completing anything under 5 minutes immediately, striking off completed tasks, and doing weekly audits. It also lists procrastination, notifications, and saying yes as demons to avoid and suggests tackling difficult tasks first, batching similar tasks, staying hydrated, taking notes, and using the Pomodoro technique to manage time well.
Working the right way, by knowing all the wrong ways
Software development is a strange mixture of work and art. We do not only write code, but we make art as writers create their masterpieces. Your habits reflect on your daily work and shape how you approach new tasks. The main problem of bad habits, aside of wasting your time and lowering your motivation, is that rather often you don’t even know about them. I will talk about bad habits by sharing with you all of the bad practices that I remember from my past and current projects. I will talk about what helps me write better, what motivates me and what prevents me from doing so. I will tell you how I started with Delphi, PHP and JAVA, how I hated JavaScript and how I love it now. We will even briefly talk about DevOPS and how I had to develop a torrent client in Python. I’ll share how I manage to learn new things, despite my uncanny laziness for reading.
Maker's Schedule, Manager's Schedule
This document contrasts the schedules of managers and makers (such as programmers and writers). Managers operate on a schedule broken into short time blocks, often hourly, where meetings fill empty slots. Makers require longer uninterrupted blocks of half a day or more to focus on complex tasks without distraction. Interrupting makers cuts their productivity as it takes time to regain focus. The document provides suggestions for reconciling the schedules such as flexitime, communicating availability, and sending meeting questions in advance.

Time management technique
The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method that uses a timer to break work down into 25-minute intervals called "pomodori" to improve mental agility through frequent breaks. The basic steps are to decide on a task, set the pomodoro timer to 25 minutes, work until the timer rings, take a short break, and take longer breaks every four pomodori. The technique aims to reduce interruptions and improve focus through indivisible pomodori intervals and planning, tracking, and visualizing progress.

How to Successfully Build a Local Docker Community by Mathias Renner
A community is one of the key components of an open source software project. The success of an open source project like Docker is highly dependent on a large and active community. The speakers will share their experience of how to successfully build a local community by the example of how they raised a Docker community at their University (Univ. of Bamberg, Germany). They summon their best practices as a result of the mistakes they made, illustrated by story telling.

Threads and Threads
Pre-emptive multi-tasking operating systems use involuntary context switching to provide the illusion of parallel processes even when the hardware supports only a single thread of execution. This allows for liveliness, responsiveness, and sometimes performance by time-slicing the CPU between processes through rapid context switching, where the execution state is stored and restored. While context switching was once expensive, cache improvements have reduced the cost so it is usually low compared to other operations, though excessive context switching can still be expensive.

It notes that pre-emptive operating systems provide an illusion of parallel processes even on single-core hardware through context switching. When moving to multi-core, caches may be shared between cores on the same chip but not between chips. Communication is faster on-chip than off-chip. Shared memory requires software strategies like mutual exclusion and non-blocking algorithms to ensure reasonable behavior. Locks and memory barriers like synchronized in Java are used to prevent reading stale data. Compare-and-swap is an algorithm that allows non-blocking updates to shared memory locations.
If the Data Cannot Come To The Algorithm...
This document discusses data locality and scaling algorithms to large datasets. It notes that as more processors are added, the problem size should also scale up according to Gustafson's Law. Map-Reduce platforms provide benefits like fault tolerance, orchestration, and redundant storage that help process terabytes and petabytes of data by adding new nodes smoothly. The conclusion recommends adopting an appropriate architecture now to enable processing of big data by adding cores or computers in the future.
An End to Order
The document discusses how parallelism exists even on single-core processors through techniques like out-of-order execution, where the execution order is determined by efficiency rather than program order. It also discusses how simultaneous multithreading allows multiple threads to share execution resources within a single core. The challenges of parallel programming are that it is an unpredictable high-dimensional problem space, and performance analysis can be expensive as it may require modeling the entire system.

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).

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
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.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex Proofs
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).
