Information Literacy, Privacy, & Risk: What Are the Implications of Mass Surv...g8briel
In light of new revelations about government warrantless wiretapping and electronic surveillance what role do librarians have in educating our patrons about digital privacy and security issues? Given that digital privacy is further complicated by for-profit Internet companies services, such as those provided by Facebook and Google, are our users savvy enough to understand threats to their information in this increasingly complex digital landscape? This presentation will explore issues related to current events and information security with an eye towards the implications for information literacy standards; brief examination of tools used to enhance information privacy; and discuss how librarians might play a role in helping users become more information aware.
At Data Journalism UK 2016 Andy Dickinson provided an insight into the ways that data journalism is being used at a hyperlocal level. Here are his slides.

Convergence Partners has released its latest research report on big data and its meaning for Africa. The report argues that big data poses a threat to those it overlooks, namely a large percentage of Africa’s populace, who remain on big data’s periphery.

With thousands of sessions, a packed exhibit hall floor, hundreds of party and networking opportunities, and dozens of ancillary activities, this year’s SXSW Interactive, which took place March 7-11 in Austin, Texas, was a place ripe for curiosity and exploration. To paraphrase one panelist: SXSW is a living, breathing manifestation of the Internet and culture.
This report highlights 10 overriding themes from the 21st annual festival, based on on-the-ground reporting, input from JWT and Digitaria colleagues in attendance and secondary research.
Цифровая жизнь в 2025 году - 'эксперты предсказывают, что интернет станет менее видимым и более интегрированным в нашу жизнь
Expert predict the Internet will become 'like electricity' - less visible yet more deeply embedded in people's lives for good and ill
Доклад Жанны Андерсон и Ли Рэйни на тему «Цифровая жизнь в 2025 году». Этот доклад приурочен к 25-летию создания «Всемирной паутины» сэром Тимом Бёрнерсом-Ли — британским учёным, изобретателем URI, URL, HTTP и HTML. Эксперты прогнозируют, что интернет скоро станет подобен электричеству: менее заметным, но больше погружённым в повседневную человеческую жизнь.

Future of the Internet Predictions March 2014 PIP ReportVasily Ryzhonkov
This report is the latest research report in a sustained effort throughout 2014 by the Pew Research Center to mark the 25th anniversary of the creation of the World Wide Web by Sir Tim Berners-Lee. He wrote a paper on March 12, 1989 proposing an “information management” system that became the conceptual and architectural structure for the Web. He eventually released the code for his system — for free — to the world on Christmas Day in 1990. It became a milestone in easing the way for ordinary people to access documents and interact over the Internet — a system that linked computers and that had been around for years.
The Web became a major layer of the Internet. Indeed, for many, it became synonymous with the Internet, even though that is not technically the case. Its birthday offers an occasion to revisit the ways it has made the Internet a part of Americans’ social lives.
Our first report tied to the anniversary looked at the present and the past of the Internet, marking its strikingly fast adoption and assessing its impact on American users’ lives. This report is part of an effort by the Pew Research Center’s Internet Project in association with Elon University’s Imagining the Internet Center to look at the future of the Internet, the Web, and other digital activities. This is the first of eight reports based on a canvassing of hundreds of experts about the future of such things as privacy, cybersecurity, the “Internet of things,” and net neutrality. In this case we asked experts to make their own predictions about the state of digital life by the year 2025. We will also explore some of the economic change driven by the spectacular progress that made digital tools faster and cheaper. And we will report on whether Americans feel the explosion of digital information coursing through their lives has helped them be better informed and make better decisions.
This report is a collaborative effort based on the input and analysis of the following individuals.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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.

restaurant inspection site has gone from
10,000 hits per month to 124,000”
- New York Times
44. Traditional tools applying tech to
journalism…
• Calculators and Graphs
• Mainframe and PCs
• Spreadsheets
• Databases
• Text and code editors
• Statistics
• Programming
45. …combined with new tools & context…
• Online spreadsheets and wikis

46.
47. 2014: data journalism is the present
Gathering, cleaning, organizing, analyzing,
visualizing and publishing data to support
the creation of acts of journalism
49. Trendy but not new
• The collection, protection and
interrogation of data as a source,
complementing traditional “shoe
leather” investigative reporting relying
on witnesses, experts and authorities
60. Create your data
“If Stage 1 of data journalism was “find and
scrape data,” then…
Stage 2 was “ask government agencies to
release data” in easy to use formats.
Stage 3 is going to be “make your own data”,
and those sources of data are going to be
automated and updated in real-time.”
-Javaun Moradi, Mozilla
89. More diverse newsrooms will
produce better (data) journalism.

found that 63% of them had no minorities.

90. Data illiteracy is leading to
a new data divide.
Risk: open data empowers
the empowered.

91. Transparency is not enough
• “For adaptable data to engender
accountability, it must fulfill at
least two conditions: publicity
and political agency” – Tiago
Peixoto
92. Be mindful of data-ism and bad data.
Embrace skepticism.
