Options Trading Vocabulary
http://www.options-trading-education.com/21663/options-trading-vocabulary/
To get a head start when you want to learn how to trade stock options you need to learn an options trading vocabulary. What are puts and calls? What is the difference between American style stock options and European style options? An options trading vocabulary contains such terms as in the money and out of the money, counterparty risk and risk management in option trading and long straddle versus short straddle. Here are a few definitions to help you grow your options trading vocabulary.
Puts and Calls in Options Trading
The basis of stock options trading is that one party pays a premium for the right to buy or sell a stock at a set price on or before a given date in the future no matter how high or low the market price of that stock might go. A call contract confers the right to buy stock at a set price called the strike price. How do puts and calls work? A put contract confers on the buyer the right to sell at the strike price. Contracts are written in 100 share lots. The seller receives the premium and incurs all risks involved. The buyer pays the premium but limits his risk while potentially leveraging his invested capital into a sizable profit. The buyer of a put or call contract can exercise the contract at any point in time up until expiration when trading American style stock options. With European style stock options the buyer can only exercise the option at expiration. However, the options contract has a constant value and when the buyer is correct in his judgment the value of his contract goes up and he can sell the contract and pocket his profit without ever touching the stock.
We’re in the Money
For the next stop on our options trading vocabulary tour, consider the old chorus line song, We’re in the Money, from the 1930’s. In the money applies to a put or call option contract that has value if sold. As opposed to in the money, out of the money refers to a contract with no value. How does this happen? Let us say that you purchase a call contract on ABC Corporation. It has a current market value of $98. The call contract is for $100. You pay a dollar a share or $100 for a contract for 100 shares. Your expectation is that the stock will go up in value so you are willing to pay a dollar a share and wait. The seller is obviously of the belief that the stock will not rise in price and is happy to receive the premium of $100 for taking on the risk of this transaction. As of the moment that you purchase the call option the contract is out of the money. Then the company announces a joint venture with XYZ Corporation and the market is happy. The stock price gaps up to $105 a share upon opening the next morning. You are now in the money. You could immediately sell your contract and make $5 per share minus the $1 per share you paid for the contract or you could wait to see if the stock goes up farther.
In this Video Vocab lesson, we’ll look at taxes, particularly corporate income tax. We will learn about audits done to ensure compliance with tax laws. And we will also explore exemptions and tax credits, as well as tax breaks and tax shelters. Ultimately, companies try to gain a higher tax rebate or pay less tax overall.

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:

Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
