    Abstract: Blockchain-based protocols like Bitcoin and Ethereum have made sending digital values in the form of tokens as cheap and easy as sending an email. But while cryptographic tokens (sometimes called "cryptocurrencies") may be as important to the next-generation internet as the World Wide Web was to Web 1.0, people aren't yet sure how to best design tokens or even what to do with them. In this report, Shermin Voshmgir, director of the Research Institute for Crypto Economics at the Vienna University of Economics, walks you through the different types of tokens, along with their properties and both operational and conceptual use cases. You'll get a concise overview of the current state of tokenization in our economy and explore the potential effects and dynamics of a future "token economy." You'll learn: What a token is A framework for determining the properties of a token Common use cases for different token types The relationship between tokens and money (including the functions of money that most current tokens don't fulfill) Where the token economy is headed

    Abstract: Data science, visualization, and artificial intelligence are powerful tools, but they can reinforce structural inequalities like sexism and racism. How do we-CTOs, product managers, marketing managers, data scientists, developers, and others-navigate these ethical challenges? The short answer: feminism-a vibrant body of thought and action from the past 50+ years that provides a model for analyzing and addressing the unequal distribution of power in the world as well as working toward data fairness. In this Spotlight on Data , Catherine D'Ignazio and Lauren Klein discuss key concepts from their forthcoming book, Data Feminism (MIT Press, 2020), which applies feminist ideas to data science and outlines seven principles for using data in the service of greater justice. You'll learn what "data feminism" means, how to evaluate your data practices through a feminist lens, and why feminism is not just for, about, or by women. You'll also discover how the principles of data feminism apply to different stages of the data processing pipeline, from project inception to collection to cleaning and analysis to communication.

    Abstract: Improving your craft is a key skill for product and user experience professionals working in the digital era. There are many established methods of product development to inspire and focus teams-Sprint, Lean, Agile, Kanban-all of which focus on solutions to customer and business problems. Enter XDPD, or Experiment-Driven Product Development-a new approach that turns the spotlight on questions to be answered, rather than on solutions. Within XDPD, discovery is a mindset, not a project phase. In Experiment-Driven Product Development , author Paul Rissen introduces a philosophy of product development that will hone your skills in discovery, research and learning. By guiding you through a practical, immediately applicable framework, you can learn to ask, and answer, questions which will supercharge your product development, making teams smarter and better at developing products and services that deliver for users and businesses alike. When applying the XDPD framework within your organization, the concept of an experiment-a structured way of asking, and answering, questions-becomes the foundation of almost everything you do, instilling a constant sense of discovery that keeps your team inspired. All types of activities, from data analysis to writing software, are seen through the lens of research. Rather than treating research as a separate task from the rest of product development, this book approaches the entire practice as one of research and continuous discovery. Designing successful experiments takes practice. That's where Rissen's years of industry expertise come in. In this book, you are given step-by-step tools to ensure that meaningful, efficient progress is made with each experiment. This approach will prove beneficial to your team, your users, and most importantly, to your product's lasting success. Experiment-Driven Product Development offers a greater appreciation of the craft of experimentation and helps you adapt it in your own context. In our modern age of innovation, XDPD can put you ahead. Go forth and experiment! What You Will Learn Know how to approach product development in a leaner, more efficient way Understand where and when experiments can be useful, and how they fit into pre-existing organization environments and processes Realize why you should be thinking about the simplest, useful thing rather than the minimum, viable product Discover how to break down feature and design ideas into the assumptions and the premises that ...

    Abstract: Building microservices applications introduces more complexity into your architecture. Highly distributed applications on elastic, ephemeral infrastructure that communicate heavily over the network make for an environment where an application is always in a fluid, partially failing state at all times. To help developers transition from the monolithic way of designing and building software to a more service-oriented approach, we need to bridge the gap in tooling to help diagnose and understand what a normal state looks like and how to recover from a non-normal state. Mitchell Kelley and Scott Cranton (solo.io) discuss the types of failures that can occur, namely networking, application behavior/code, and storage, and present a systemic workflow for prodding and exploring a system to detect faults and abnormal behavior. This framework builds on the practices known as chaos engineering. Mitchell and Scott take a look at two open source projects that aim to complement this workflow: the Squash project, for step-by-step distributed microservices debugging, and Gloo Shot, a newly created chaos engineering framework. Prerequisite knowledge Familiarity with debugging applications and building distributed applications A basic understanding of services-oriented applications What you'll learn Understand chaos engineering Learn how to debug distributed applications with appropriate tooling Investigate the requisite workflow to apply toward system behavior exploration This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Open Source Software conference in Portland.

    Abstract: You built your system, you deployed it, you rolled it up in production, but it's just the beginning. The life of your system just started. It will grow, evolve, and wake you up in the middle of the night. Usually, at this point you start thinking about fault tolerance and error handling. Fault-tolerance concepts sound simple: modern frameworks promise to effortlessly solve it for you. But what's hiding behind the simplicity? Alex Borysov (Google) and Mykyta Protsenko (Netflix) take you along for a sneak peak at how to design and build truly fault-tolerant Java systems. They make it real by trying failure scenarios against a live system (you'll watch it recover in real time) and then review the recipes (with gRPC and REST examples and a number of open source tools) that you can use right away to make your code more resilient and your system more robust. Prerequisite knowledge A basic understanding of microservice architecture This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Open Source Software conference in Portland.

    Abstract: Organizations are shifting from centralized control and planning to adaptive approaches focusing on time to market, delegated autonomy, and freedom to experiment. In this new world of two-pizza teams organized around microservices, there are two common failure modes: the first is hierarchical command and control from ivory-tower architects with strict lists of approved tools and rigorous control gates for design reviews at various stages; at the opposite end of the spectrum is chaos with every team doing whatever they want and close to zero governance. Jonny LeRoy explores the Goldilocks zone that makes sure organizational risks and opportunities are handled while still giving teams as much autonomy as possible within those constraints. He draws on ThoughtWorks's recent client experience to delve into some of the strategies and approaches for creating the Goldilocks zone of lightweight governance: automating compliance, focusing on vision, principles and constraints, enrolling gatekeepers as collaborators, paved roads and the pit of success, tech radar as a lightweight governance tool, and ADRs for visibility. He also touches on how to help architects become comfortable with evolution, the org design implications, how to be responsive to skill levels on teams, and how to think about innovation zones.

    Abstract: The Business-IT Wall Must Come Down With A Seat at the Table, thought leader Mark Schwartz pulled out a chair for CIOs at the C-suite table. Now Mark brings his unique perspective and experience to business leaders looking to lead their company into the digital age by harnessing the expertise and innovation that is already under their roof: IT. In the war for business supremacy, Schwartz shows we must throw out the old management models and stereotypes that pit suits against nerds. Instead, business leaders of today can foster a space of collaboration and shared mission, a space that puts technologists and business people on the same team. For business leaders looking to unlock their enterprise's digital transformation, War and Peace and IT provides clear context and strategies. Schwartz demystifies the role IT plays in the modern enterprise, allowing business leaders to create new strategies for the new digital battleground. It is time to change not only the enterprise's relationship with technology, but its relationship with technologists. To accelerate, enterprises must bring technology to the heart of their work, for just as technology is causing this disruption, it is technology that provides the solution. Unlike Napoleon, it is time for business leaders to come down from the hill atop the Battle of Borodino and enter the fray with the technologists, for that is where the war will be won or lost.

    Abstract: Unlike a monolith, which is an independently deployable unit that can be tested as a whole, microservices are a distributed system, composed of many services that can be tested and deployed independently of each other. While this approach has many advantages, from a testing perspective it can actually make things harder. How do I know the impact of changing or deploying a microservice on other microservices that may depend on it? Andrew Morgan dives into common microservices testing anti-patterns, including building an end-to-end testing microservices like a monolith, the "distributed monolith" anti-pattern, and unit tests that are heavily reliant on stubs of other microservices that may be inaccurate or stale. He then offers an overview of consumer-driven contract (CDC) testing-a TDD at the API level approach to microservices-as a way to mitigate them. Andrew walks you through the concept end to end, explaining how to use it to guarantee that both message-driven and API-driven interactions between microservices will work without end-to-end testing, provide a fast and reliable feedback loop for microservices development, and deliver independently testable and releasable microservices.

    Abstract: Technical debt is a funny thing. While the term attempts to make an analogy with financial debt, technical debt and financial debt have nothing in common. Instead, it's the name we give engineering decisions we disagree with. Robert "r0ml" Lefkowitz (Retired) offers an overview of technical debt, explaining how to recognize it, how to prevent or reduce it, and how come we see so much of it. Many so-called best practices today, are, in fact, technical debt factories. The reason we have so much of it is that we eagerly create it at earlier stages of an organization and fail to alter our approaches soon enough when the organization matures, and these early practices which were "investment" become "debt." Robert discusses many of these practices. One of these is microservices-often undertaken as a technique for increasing agility, at the cost of manufacturing tech debt. Robert details common methods for avoiding increasing the tech debt burden by deploying microservices. Robert explores two primary themes that apply to multiple software methods. The first is the principle of parsimony, which dates back to the ancient Greeks but was popularized more recently by the 12th century theologian William of Ockham. The second theme is the doctrine of immutability. This idea, too, flowered during the Middle Ages and is enjoying a renaissance today with the rise of functional programming languages. Robert dives into both of these ideas as they apply to data types, programming languages, network protocols, software dependencies, configuration management, and more. This session was recorded at the 2019 O'Reilly Software Architecture Conference in New York.

    Abstract: The Mac user's guide to mass storage Updated December 10, 2019 As the amount of data we store continues to grow, figuring out where to put it and how to access it becomes more complicated. It's not just that we need to find space for our increasingly large collections of photos, videos, music, and apps-we want it to be available whenever we need it, and be sure that it's safe from hackers and thieves. Every Mac includes internal storage in the form of a hard drive, SSD, or Fusion drive. But you may also have one or more external devices (such as hard drives, flash drives, SD cards, or RAID devices), not to mention network-attached storage (NAS) devices or cloud storage (like Dropbox or iCloud Drive). Making sense of all your options, managing your stored data, choosing new devices or services when you're running out of space, or even just figuring out what's where can drive anyone to distraction. Fortunately, Jeff Carlson has a book with all the answers! After decades of working with Macs and accumulating massive collections of photos and videos, Jeff has pulled together a wide-ranging book about Mac storage that contains just the help you're looking for. Among many other topics, this book covers: How to choose a new (internal or external) hard drive, SSD, or hybrid drive Determining how much storage space you need What you need to know about APFS, Apple's new filesystem Formatting and partitioning disks using Disk Utility How to repair a misbehaving disk RAIDs: what they are and how different types compare What to do with a hard drive when it has outlived its usefulness When to use a flash drive or SD card How to create and use disk images Deciding among local, network, and cloud storage for various types of files What a personal cloud is and why you might consider using one Strategies for freeing up extra disk space NAS devices get special coverage, including: How to choose a NAS-and when it's a better idea than an external hard drive Using a NAS with your Mac for a wide variety of purposes Special considerations when using a NAS for digital photos Jeff also digs into details about numerous storage-related technologies: How to tell if your third-party SSD needs to have TRIM enabled (and what to do if the answer is yes) How to create a software RAID using Disk Utility or SoftRAID What you need to know about filesystems-and how to choose among APFS, Mac OS Extended, FAT, and ExFAT Why and how to encrypt a disk using FileVault or the Finder Usi...

    Abstract: Learn how to combine the three most important tools in data science: Python, SQL, and Tableau About This Video How to use Python, SQL, and Tableau together Software integration Data preprocessing techniques Apply machine learning In Detail Python, SQL, and Tableau are three of the most widely used tools in the world of data science. Python is the leading programming language SQL is the most widely used means for communication with database systems Tableau is the preferred solution for data visualization; The course starts off by introducing software integration as a concept. We discuss some important terms such as servers, clients, requests, and responses. Moreover, you will learn about data connectivity, APIs, and endpoints. Then we continue by introducing the real-life example exercise the course is centred around: the Absenteeism at Work dataset. The preprocessing part that follows will give you a taste of what BI and data science look like in real-life, on-the-job situations. Then we continue by applying some Machine Learning to our data. You will learn how to explore the problem at hand from a machine-learning perspective, how to create targets, what kind of statistical preprocessing is necessary for this part of the exercise, how to train a Machine Learning model, and how to test it-a truly comprehensive ML exercise. Connecting Python and SQL is not immediate; we show how that's done in an entire section of the course. By the end of that section, you will be able to transfer data from Jupyter to Workbench. And finally, as promised, Tableau will allow us to visualize the data we have been working with. We will prepare several insightful charts and will interpret the results together.

    Abstract: Kubernetes is all the rage these days and for good reason. Among other benefits, app development teams get to use battle-hardened infrastructure to build and deploy containers, use modern tech and practices, and lower their cloud bill. But these days, the journey to Kubernetes is long and hard. Aaron Schlesinger (Microsoft) dives into case studies that reveal the general needs of many app developers. He uses these case studies to build a long list of concepts and technologies you need to learn before you can even think about deploying your apps on Kubernetes. You'll learn his strategies (and hacks and shortcuts) that teams have used to get up and running faster. Aaron helps you shorten that long list, eases your transition, and makes the day-to-day life of app developers easier on Kubernetes. Gain a holistic view of your team's needs and how you can help them, and leave with a deep understanding of what your teams need to succeed on Kubernetes, important tools you can use to help them, and how you can use them today to realize the benefits that Kubernetes can bring to your apps right now.

    Abstract: Blockchain technology is among the most exciting developments in the IT industry in many years. Often shrouded in mystery (including who the person is who developed it), today blockchain is most well known as the technology that underpins cryptocurrencies, the most famous of those being Bitcoin. But blockchain's distributed-ledger technology holds the promise to revolutionize the way businesses and governments create and maintain important records of transactions of all kinds, whether it's contracts, deeds, or any other types of activity for which an inviolable record must be maintained. In this video course, intended for developers and programmers who have a basic understanding of web-based applications, you learn the fundamentals of a blockchain and Decentralized Applications, or DApps, and how data that's stored there is considered immutable-all but impossible to tamper or change, and if an attempt were made, it would be detected immediately.

    Abstract: If you're rolling out a large-scale infrastructure change, you know it can be like swapping out a jet engine while flying. Staying aloft takes coordination and communication with many teams, good processes and documentation, risk identification and management, monitoring, and tracking of the change progress-not to mention dealing with the catastrophic challenges that crop up midflight. In this report, technical program managers in Google SRE take you through case studies that demonstrate how infrastructure change projects are managed at Google. Authors Wendy Look and Mark Dallman offer an overview of two long-term projects at Google: one to migrate all of Google's systems from Google File System (GFS) to its successor, Colossus, and the other to move from local disk storage to diskless compute nodes for all jobs. You'll dive into the tools and processes used to manage the changes, see what worked (and what didn't), and discover lessons learned along the way. Best of all, you'll get a preflight checklist drawn from these experiences that will help you keep your own projects on course.

    Abstract: Learn Blazor, an alternative to JavaScript for web applications that is based upon Microsoft's popular and powerful C# language. You'll build web applications by dividing them into easy-to-maintain components known as Razor components, then create those components using the Blazor framework. In this video you'll see how to make components in Blazor that communicate efficiently with each other and the Blazor runtime libraries in order to accomplish your application goals. Along the way, you'll learn to leverage your components over multiple applications by packaging those components into libraries that can be shared. This video starts off by walking you through the creation of a simple component. Then the video shows how to leverage what you've built in the first component by using that component as the basis for a second. The video continues by showing how you can split your code from markup using the View and ViewModel approach, and how to set up communications between components. You'll also cover life-cycle hooks, cascading parameters, and the concept of templated components to facilitate code reuse. What You Will Learn Create Blazor components as building blocks for reusing code Share components between projects using component libraries Build complex component hierarchies with cascading parameters Construct templated components that can be re-used in different scenarios Implement the popular View/ViewModel pattern for Blazor components Share data between different components and make them sync Optimize your code using a component's life-cycle hooks Who This Video Is For For Blazor and web developers who want to learn how to build functional and reusable Blazor components. For developers who want to gain maximum leverage from their components by using them across as many applications as is feasible.

    Abstract: So you want to test your complex application that involves large-scale distributed systems. But how do you feel about testing it effectively just using your test environment? Today, automated testing of Netflix client and server applications runs at scale in production. Within a few years, the company's testing has gone from a low-volume manual mode to one where it is continuous, voluminous, and fully automated. Collectively, Netflix teams create hundreds of thousands of tester accounts every day, each being used in thousands of test scenarios, to the point where service providers are more wary of getting paged for causing instability to internal testers than for causing an external outage. Vasanth Asokan offers a study of the evolution and anatomy of production testing at scale at Netflix, explaining why there was a desire to test in production, what Netflix did to try to keep testing out of production, and where testing belongs, anyway. Along the way, Vasanth shares a few case studies to demonstrate both the benefits and the less tangible diffused impacts of concentrated, uncoordinated testing against customer-facing infrastructure. Vasanth also looks at other forms of testing, such as load, failure, and simulation testing, and explains the role they play in ensuring a fully functioning customer experience. Join in to learn whether the benefits outweigh the risks of executing untested code in production or whether it's better to focus on creating a production mirror. If you run large-scale distributed systems, this talk will better inform your overall testing strategy, illustrate specific techniques that work at scale, and provide trade-offs to consider.

    Abstract: The number of microservices running in enterprises increases daily. As a result, service composition, governance, security, and observability are becoming a challenge to implement and incorporate. A cell-based architecture is an approach that can be applied to current or desired development and technologies to address these issues. This technology-neutral approach helps cloud-native dev teams become more efficient, act in a more self-organized manner, and speed up overall release times. Asanka Abeysinghe offers an overview of a cell-based reference architecture that is API-centric, cloud native, and microservices friendly. You'll learn the role of APIs in the cell-based approach and examine how real applications are built as cells. Along the way, Asanka explores metrics and approaches that can be used to measure the effectiveness of the architecture and demonstrates how organizations can implement the cell approach. This session is sponsored by WSO2.

    Abstract: Siri, Apple's voice-controlled digital assistant, has been around since 2011, when it debuted on the iPhone. But since then, it has become vastly more powerful and useful, and has spread across Apple's entire ecosystem-it now runs on iOS, macOS, Apple Watch, Apple TV, and HomePod. Siri can now listen and speak in a wide range of languages and accents, perform a long list of helpful day-to-day tasks, and keep you entertained in the process. Although Siri is easy to use, it's so multitalented that you might easily overlook some of its best features. In this book, former Macworld editor Scholle McFarland takes you deep into Siri's capabilities. You'll learn tons of tips and tricks about making the most of Siri. Discover how Siri can increase your efficiency and productivity, lend a hand when you're in the car or out for a jog, and even make it simpler to play music or find movies and TV shows to watch. Among many other things, this book teaches you: What hardware and software you need to use Siri How to change Siri's language and voice Ways to personalize Siri by telling it about yourself, your contacts, and more The numerous ways to activate Siri (by touch or by voice) How to use Siri with AirPods, wired earbuds, or third-party headphones What to do if the wrong device answers your "Hey Siri" request How to ask Siri about sports, math and conversions, time, food, movies, people, stocks, the weather, jokes, and random facts Tips for asking Siri follow-up questions How to control music (on any device, with or without an Apple Music subscription) Techniques for using Siri to get directions, set reminders and appointments, send messages and email, and take notes Ways to use Siri to search for files on your Mac What Siri can and can't do for you on an Apple TV or HomePod How to make and use Siri Shortcuts on an iOS device or Apple Watch Everything you need to know about your privacy where Siri is involved Plus bonus videos! Since Siri is an audio-based, interactive tool, there are some things that are more readily demonstrated than written about. So Scholle has put together a series of videos that illustrate techniques from her book, allowing you to see and hear exactly what happens as you use Siri. Whether you're new to Siri or a seasoned pro, you're sure to find lots of tricks and suggestions in this book to improve your experience of using Siri.

About This Video Master some of the most powerful and effective tools and techniques used by Excel professionals Unique hands-on demos and real-world case studies Learn tools and techniques in quick, bite-sized lessons In Detail This course is not an introduction to Excel. It features some of the most powerful and effective tools and techniques used by Excel professionals, and shares them through crystal-clear demos and unique, real-world case studies. Unlike most Excel courses, this course is non-linear and constantly evolving, which means that you can jump to different sections or individual lectures freely. Each video is designed to be an independent and self-contained demo, to help you learn these tools and techniques in quick, bite-sized lessons. The Excel tips and techniques covered in this course fall into six categories: Productivity tips (navigation, flash fill, cell protection, advanced sorting & filtering, and more) Formatting tips (freeze panes, row/column grouping, advanced custom formats, and more) Formula tips (formula auditing tools, fuzzy lookups, detecting duplicates, randomization, and more) Visualization tips (sparklines, filled maps, custom templates, Excel form controls, and more) Pivot Table tips (slicers & timelines, custom layouts, value calculations, and more) Analytics tips (outlier detection, Monte Carlo simulation, forecasting, CUBE functions, and more) While the level of difficulty varies considerably, the demos generally start simple and become progressively more complex within each section. There are no strict prerequisites for this course, but keep in mind that some demos may be challenging without a strong foundational knowledge of underlying Excel concepts (such as Pivot Tables or formulas, for example).
