The first Americans crossed into North America over a land bridge between Siberia and Alaska around 30,000 years ago during the last ice age. As the climate warmed, different groups migrated throughout the Americas and adapted to various environments by developing different ways of life including tools, clothing, shelter and food sources appropriate to each region's natural resources and climate. Despite regional differences, most Native American cultures shared some common beliefs including respect for nature, communal land ownership, sustainable use of resources, and the importance of trade.

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.

LF Energy Webinar: Electrical Grid Modelling and Simulation Through PowSyBl -...DanBrown980551
Do you want to learn how to model and simulate an electrical network from scratch in under an hour?
Then welcome to this PowSyBl workshop, hosted by Rte, the French Transmission System Operator (TSO)!
During the webinar, you will discover the PowSyBl ecosystem as well as handle and study an electrical network through an interactive Python notebook.
PowSyBl is an open source project hosted by LF Energy, which offers a comprehensive set of features for electrical grid modelling and simulation. Among other advanced features, PowSyBl provides:
- A fully editable and extendable library for grid component modelling;
- Visualization tools to display your network;
- Grid simulation tools, such as power flows, security analyses (with or without remedial actions) and sensitivity analyses;
The framework is mostly written in Java, with a Python binding so that Python developers can access PowSyBl functionalities as well.
What you will learn during the webinar:
- For beginners: discover PowSyBl's functionalities through a quick general presentation and the notebook, without needing any expert coding skills;
- For advanced developers: master the skills to efficiently apply PowSyBl functionalities to your real-world scenarios.

1. America In The Beginning Who were the first Americans? This land bridge is known as __________. Animals like mammoths crossed the bridge or ___________ to the America's. This caused ocean levels to _drop ____ and expose ____land ______. In the Bering straight a __land bridge _______ appeared connecting ____Siberia the _______the Americans ____& _______________ 30,000 years ago During a period of low temperatures called an __ice age ________ The world was covered in _glaciers __ or sheets of ice.

3. How did Native Americans adjust to the new environments? America In The Beginning Different groups in different environments developed their own beliefs and ways of life or culture. Groups in the same environments adapted similar life styles, and language creating cultural region . Many Native American have these things in common. 1. Nature has a spirit & believe in many gods. 2. No one can own land 4. Only use what is needed(no waste) 5. trade was important to most societies Living in many different parts of the Americas the Natives used the different natural recourses in their own different environments for food, clothing, and shelter. What did they have in common?
