LAST WORDS

This document introduces open source software and provides guidance on how to contribute. It defines open source software as software where the original source code is made available and can be redistributed or modified under a given license. It encourages contributing to give back, collaborate with others, learn new skills, and improve one's resume. The document recommends finding a project to contribute to that is used regularly, built in a favorite language, or seems interesting, and provides non-code contributions like raising issues and sharing projects. It concludes by stating open source is the new standard and encourages getting involved.

Open Innovation and Opensource SoftwarePradyot Sahu

The document discusses open innovation and open source software. Open innovation involves using innovations created by others through processes, products, or knowledge. It is characterized by purposeful knowledge inflows and outflows, organic growth of innovation, and reliance on outside innovators. Open source software development is a form of open innovation where the intellectual property is openly available and projects involve collaboration. However, open innovation does not always involve making internal components openly available as with systems like IBM PCs.

Rethinking Mobile with IonicMike Hartington

The document discusses the Ionic framework for building hybrid mobile apps using web technologies like Angular. It highlights how Ionic allows web developers to build native-feeling apps, provides an SDK for developing these apps, and empowers developers. Ionic 2 aims to push the limits of what is possible with web technology by keeping apps simple, providing a better native experience, and reducing tooling fatigue. Ionic also makes it easy to build progressive web apps that can be installed like native apps and work offline.

The document discusses the history of how software was sold and distributed from the early 19th century to present day. It outlines key events like IBM beginning to charge separately for software in 1969 and Richard Stallman's launch of the GNU project in 1984 to create a free Unix-like operating system. Stallman believed software users should have four essential freedoms: to use, study, share, and modify software. This philosophy led to the creation of the GNU General Public License to ensure any versions or modifications of GNU software remained free to use. While open source software has similar goals, the document notes it allows some licenses considered too restrictive by free software advocates.

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.

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc

Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency. This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data. Attendees will learn: - Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection - How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations - Where business preparedness needs improvement - What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.
