Track code quality with SonarQubeDmytro Patserkovskyi

It is not to complicated to keep new project with good code quality for half year. Maybe, for one year. But what if team works on some project for years? Or even ”better”: you need to support and grow large project after another team. Presentation describes Continuous Inspection, main measures of code quality that will make your life better, continuous inspection and how to cook it with SonarQube.

SonarPPThelperkid

SONAR is used to determine ocean depth and locate underwater objects. There are two main types of SONAR - active and passive. Active SONAR emits sound pulses and measures their reflection to determine distance and direction. Passive SONAR listens without transmitting. SONAR is used to detect submarines, map underwater features, calculate depth, and locate sunken ships and fish. To determine ocean depth using SONAR, high frequency sound vibrations called ultrasonic vibrations are transmitted into the water. The time for the vibrations to return is used to calculate the distance of the reflecting surface below.

Content Curation: An Essential Ingredient for Online Business SuccessJerod Morris

Successful content curation -- the kind that actually drives business results -- requires commitment, strategic thinking, and that most precious of resources: time. So why go to the trouble? Because when you do it right, and do it right consistently, content curation is a foundational building block of your authority. And authority is how you build and maintain the audience that builds your business. In this presentation, originally given to the Dallas Social Media Club in July of 2014, I break down the art and science of content curation, explaining not only the why, but more importantly: the how. o Why you should be curating content o The essentials (who, what, when, where, and why) of link curation. o How to curate ideas like successful writers do o Why knowledge curation is key to the wisdom on which your authority is built And much more.

How analogue intelligence complements AIPaul Rowe

Artificial Intelligence is providing benefits in many areas of work within the heritage sector, from image analysis, to ideas generation, and new research tools. However, it is more critical than ever for people, with analogue intelligence, to ensure the integrity and ethical use of AI. Including real people can improve the use of AI by identifying potential biases, cross-checking results, refining workflows, and providing contextual relevance to AI-driven results. News about the impact of AI often paints a rosy picture. In practice, there are many potential pitfalls. This presentation discusses these issues and looks at the role of analogue intelligence and analogue interfaces in providing the best results to our audiences. How do we deal with factually incorrect results? How do we get content generated that better reflects the diversity of our communities? What roles are there for physical, in-person experiences in the digital world?

AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix

Talk at the final event of Data Fusion Dynamics: A Collaborative UK-Saudi Initiative in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence funded by the British Council UK-Saudi Challenge Fund 2024, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2025 https://alandix.com/academic/talks/CMet2025-AI-Changes-Everything/ Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think? Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater. At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts. At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.
