Introduction to Web 3 - Tony Aube at WAQ19Tony Aubé
Watch with English closed captions: https://youtu.be/PQHEwuUOplQ
In the 2000s, sites like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter marked the arrival of Web 2.0. At the time, we were already wondering what would be the Web 3.0. Today we have the answer: Web 3.0 (simply called Web3) is the transition to a decentralized Internet.
The Internet is doing very badly today. Censorship, centralization, surveillance, data piracy, misinformation, the abolition of neutrality, etc. Fortunately, several solutions are being developed to solve these problems: Tim Berners-Lee's Blockchain and Cryptocurrency, IPFS and Solid.
This presentation aims to highlight these projects. We will see how these promise the creation of a decentralized Internet. An Internet beyond the control of private companies and governments. An Internet that will exchange value as easily as it is possible to exchange information today. And finally, an Internet where users are in control of their own personal information.

Ask for assistance. Gnashing your teeth in the dark will not get you extra brownie points. It is a sign of strength to ask for assistance and people will respect you for it.
Web 3.0 or Decentralised Web to revolutionise the world of Internet Era through Blockchain, Big Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence.
There has been a buzz around the Web 3.0 and the disruption it will bring to the Industry, but only a few know actually why it spawned and what is it about to transform. Let us travel back in time to understand and examine its predecessors - Web 1.0 and 2.0
The Blockchain, the Internet of Things, Advanced analytics, and Artificial Intelligence are potent technologies that will have a profound effect on society. They will take us much further into this new world of the information age as power shifts in a radical way from people in hierarchical institutions to automated networks and the algorithms that can coordinate in the Web 3.0 era.
The Web 3.0 knowledge management should give rise to an exciting and game-changing environment - the Social Semantic Web. However, still, the technology is in the early stages, but if you have used the Google search in the recent times know that the Google has used natural language to find the answer to your question. Hence you are already experiencing the revolutionary benefits of the next chapter in the story of the "World Wide Web (WWW)."
Level 1 undergrad class in which we chart the emergence of the term web 2.0 following the dot-com bubble. Looks at key players and problems of specificity. Also looks at some of the criticisms made of the by-product of web 2.0 tech, namely user generated content

Crypto-assets, blockchain & WEB3: Why does it matter? By Cyril PaglinoTheFamily
Cyril Paglino talked about the pros & cons of our current internet stack: How was it built 30 years ago? Why and how it could be radically improved by entering the new phase of WEB3?
We dived deep into why Blockchain and CryptoNetwork matter. Knowing how these technologies work is not an easy task, and it’s especially hard to figure out current & potential use cases. That will be Cyril’s mission during this talk: Explaining to us how they will become a MAJOR component of the worldwide web in the next decades.
This summarizes my concept of a transformation in which data is only entered once (by government, businesses or the public), automatically tagged with metadata, and then flows, preferably on a real-time basis, to anyone who needs it (limited only by their roles), plus tools to use and interpret the data. The results will be new goods & services, transparency, and economical operations!
The title of this PPT is "Blockchain 50 Companies".
This document is based on CB insight.
My favorite companies are Funderbeam, Augur, CHRONICLED, mediachain, OpenBazaar, and ripple.
I strongly believe that blockchain will change the world.
I would be glad if I could help you even just a little bit.

Web 3.0 All the basics of the hype for beginners.pdfJames Brown
In the last two decades, the Internet has changed dramatically: from Internet Relay Chat (IRC) we have moved to modern social media platforms. From simple digital payments to sophisticated online banking services, the technology we use every day has changed noticeably. We also got to know new, completely internet-based technologies such as crypto and blockchain.
Fixing the internet through timestamps & structured data @ Friends of SearchBas van der Lans
The internet has a deep-rooted issue: trust. How do consumers know whether the information presented by websites can be trusted? How can website owners claim ownership over their content? The web wasn’t designed with integrity in mind and therefore trust on the web is fundamentally broken.
Around 2010, the web started to implement Schema.org. This helped search engines and social media to index our content. Therefore, whom to trust is outsourced to those platforms. Yet still, misinformation literally costs lives, while online fraud is at all-time highs. How can trust on the web be democratized? How can we make the web a trustworthy place through Schema and Timestamps?
In 1991, blockchain was invented for timestamping documents. With a timestamp, you can prove that you didn’t tamper with data or content since a specific date and time. How are Schema.org Markup and blockchain timestamps building blocks for a better internet today?

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:

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

4. State of the Internet Today
5 Challenges to Fix ASAP
1. Data - mis usage (by purpose) and leaks (not by purpose)
2. Spread of wealth - monopolies
3. Censorship - demonetization (we don’t mind, or we don’t know, as long as
we can participate ourselves)
4. Inclusivity - 1.8 billion people are unbanked (we don’t mind, or we don’t
know, as long as we can participate ourselves).
5. Fake news - and e.g. clickbaiting (optimization for click / attention)
5. What if we would be living
in a world without
WordPress?
If, for example, Adobe had
the CMS market?

30. The Blockchain Era
- Basically the internet is fundamentally
insecure by design.
- Off course we have SSL, but if we want
to transfer or store value, we HAVE to
trust banks, PayPal and so on.
- With Blockchain technology we can
transfer and store value without middle
man.
- It handles logic too, programmable
value!
- Fixed amount of < 21.000.000
- Price set by Supply and Demand
- Everybody can join
- Transfer and store of value
