One of the main highlights in preparing an AMSHeR Progress Report had to be our 10th Anniversary. That’s 10 eventful years of promoting non-discrimination for MSM/LGBT individuals, building partnerships and achieving our mission of a healthy and empowered LGBT community in Africa. May this landmark occasion introduce an exciting new chapter of strengthening our leadership and, especially, celebrating the great contributions of our 18 members across 15 African countries, as well as our global partners.
The document summarizes the City of Cape Town's Critical Water Shortages Disaster Plan, which outlines three phases of response to increasingly severe drought conditions. The plan assumes very little additional water supply and takes a pessimistic approach to ensure preparedness. The City is currently in Phase 1, which includes water rationing measures like limiting supply and pressure management. Phase 1 aims to prevent entering Phase 2, which involves more intensive daily rationing. The disaster plan guides City operations and preparedness, and relevant information will be shared with partners and the public during each phase.
The document describes a study that investigated using freezing as a method for desalinating seawater. Three seawater samples were collected from Boshehr beach in the Persian Gulf and subjected to three cycles of a freezing-melting process. This involved crystallization at -20°C, separation of ice crystals, surface washing, and melting. Testing showed that after three cycles, the total dissolved solids in the samples were reduced to levels making the water potable. Freezing is a potential desalination method for remote areas due to its low energy requirements compared to other processes like reverse osmosis. However, freezing also has disadvantages such as higher costs and potential water quality issues.

African horse sickness diagnosis - Cape Town, South AfricaFanus van Straten
1. African horse sickness (AHS) is a vector-borne disease of equines caused by the African horse sickness virus. There are four clinical forms: pulmonary, cardiac, mixed, and horse sickness fever.
2. The pulmonary form is characterized by severe respiratory distress, coughing, and nasal discharge. Lesions include edema of the lungs and fluid in the chest cavity. The cardiac form shows edema of the head and neck. Mixed form shows signs of both pulmonary and cardiac forms. Horse sickness fever causes mild fever and is rarely diagnosed.
3. Laboratory confirmation is through virus isolation from blood or tissues, serological tests for antibodies, and PCR/RT-PCR tests. Differential diagnosis includes equine

Position Statement on the Use of Dominance Theory in Behavior Modification of...Fanus van Straten
Dominance is defined as a relationship between
individual animals that is established by
force/aggression and submission, to determine
who has priority access to multiple resources
such as food, preferred resting spots, and mates
(Bernstein 1981; Drews 1993). A dominancesubmissive
relationship does not exist until one
individual consistently submits or defers. In
such relationships, priority access exists primarily
when the more dominant individual is present
to guard the resource. For instance, in a herd
comprised of several bulls and many cows, the
subordinate males avoid trying to mate when
the dominant bull is near or they defer when the
dominant bull approaches (Yin 2009). However,
they will mate with females when the dominant
bull is far away, separated by a barrier, or out of
visual sight. By mating in this manner, subordinate
bulls are not challenging the dominant
bull’s rank; rather, they are using an alternate
strategy for gaining access to mates.
In our relationship with
our pets, priority access to
resources is not the major
concern. The majority of
behaviors owners want to
modify, such as excessive
vocalization, unruly greetings,
and failure to come
when called, are not related
to valued resources and
may not even involve aggression.
Rather, these behaviors
occur because they
have been inadvertently
rewarded and because alternate
appropriate behaviors
have not been trained
instead. Consequently, what
owners really want is not to
gain dominance, but to obtain
the ability to influence their pets to perform
behaviors willingly —which is one accepted
definition of leadership (Knowles and Saxberg
1970; Yin 2009).

The incorporation of the Rome Statute of the ICC into national law in South A...Fanus van Straten
The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court is a multilateral international agreementor treaty. All states have the right to become parties to it. When a state does ratify or accede to it, it incurs international obligations to the other State Parties to the agreement. State Parties must ensure that their domestic laws enable them to comply with its international obligations. Failure adequately to provide for the international obligations is not only undesirable internationally but also domestically. The South African Parliament has incorporated the Rome Statute into national (municipal) law by passing the Implementation of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court Act 27 of 2002. This is a commendable step in ensuring that its international obligations are met. Unfortunately, it appears that the scheme of arrest and surrender to the ICC provided for in the South African legislation to give effect to the Rome Statute is somewhat defective. There is no provision for any competent authority, whether a court or the executive branch of government, to issue an order of surrender. This defect should be remedied as soon as possible.

2. Meat should be cooked over an open fire and served directly off the grill, not from an oven. Steaks are best cooked medium-rare.
3. Good braai hosts put effort into preparation and cooking to provide guests with a good meal, rather than just standing around drinking. The meat, not a schedule, determines when the meal is ready.

Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

Bram Verhoef, Head of Machine Learning at Axelera AI, presents the “How Axelera AI Uses Digital Compute-in-memory to Deliver Fast and Energy-efficient Computer Vision” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
As artificial intelligence inference transitions from cloud environments to edge locations, computer vision applications achieve heightened responsiveness, reliability and privacy. This migration, however, introduces the challenge of operating within the stringent confines of resource constraints typical at the edge, including small form factors, low energy budgets and diminished memory and computational capacities. Axelera AI addresses these challenges through an innovative approach of performing digital computations within memory itself. This technique facilitates the realization of high-performance, energy-efficient and cost-effective computer vision capabilities at the thin and thick edge, extending the frontier of what is achievable with current technologies.
In this presentation, Verhoef unveils his company’s pioneering chip technology and demonstrates its capacity to deliver exceptional frames-per-second performance across a range of standard computer vision networks typical of applications in security, surveillance and the industrial sector. This shows that advanced computer vision can be accessible and efficient, even at the very edge of our technological ecosystem.
