Hyperlapse - the new app by Instagram for time-lapse videos shooting - social...Brand24
Hyperlapse is the brand new app designed by Instagram to capture high-quality time-lapse videos. It is provided with a built-in stabilization technology that enhances the quality and makes a time-lapse video smooth. It works as a simple camera that then lets you speed up the video (by 6 or 12 times). And the most of all it is for free, but for the time being it is only available for iOS. Hyperlapse was announced on the 26th August 2014 and since that date it has been widely discussed in social media.
It was approximately mentioned in social media 30 thousand times (within two days) and these contents reached to 60 million social media users. The most popular motives of Hyperlapse videos are street views and car driving (from the driver's perspective). The most popular source of mentions is Twitter, but most of videos are shared through Instagram. People are very positive towards the new app (20% - positive, 1% - negative contents). They usually express their general positive opinion about the app, but also mention specific features, especially stabilization. Negative mentions are related to the lack of the Android version of the app. Some users also accuse Instagram that copied the idea of stabilization technology from Microsoft. Neutral information include information about the app introduction or its description and the testing videos as well.

On the 1st May new features were introduced to a photo sharing application Snapchat. These features include texting and video chatting with friends inside the app. Doubtlessly it has been the biggest upgrade in months and as the novelty it appealed to the huge audience. Nevertheless, plenty of social media users criticized it, as they very often tend to do. Brand24 explored social media platforms in search for opinions of the Internet users about the update. The following report presents results of the analysis. Data includes altogether 3311 mentions, concerning Snapchat and was collected on the 5th May.
The majority of comments about Spanchat were found on Twitter (73,9%).
In the analyzed period about 10% of mentions in the Internet including key phrase „snapchat” concerned its new update. Amongst those entries we distinguished about 100 opinions and most of them were negative.
The significant part of comments about the new Snapchat update had negative sentiment. The upgrade caused general public outrage, which was widely expressed across social media platforms. We distinguished few main reasons for people’s dissatisfaction.
At the Advertising Research Foundation’s (ARF) 2011 annual re:think convention, a key issues forum presentation was held entitled Understanding the Relationship Between Social Media and TV Viewership.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
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:

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:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
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.
