I'm just reading the AI Con: How to Fight Big Tech's Hype and Create the Future We Want
by @emilymbender@dair-community.social and @alex@dair-community.social
I can highly recommend it. It should be a required read for anyone doing something with AI (voluntarily or otherwise)
I seem remember a #Mapping (Software Development) related #Event in Austria. I believe it was an #OpenSpace. I missed it several years and now can't remember how it was called.
Can someone tell me the name?

TIL about the #CarnotEfficiency
A formular which calculates the maximal efficiency of a heat-based engine. It describes the maximum ratio of work which can be produced by a heat base "engine".
Heat-base engine sound strange and theoretical but coal, gas-based power plants as well as nuclear power plants are heat engines.
The efficiency of heat-base engines depends on the difference between the hot and the cold temperastur. A smaller difference reduces the efficiency.
This mean that with the raising temperatures through #ClimateChange make al heat base power plants less efficient.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnot%27s_theorem_(thermodynamics)
This another strong argument the fossile energy needs to be ended
【Are you interested in a different kind of security conference?】
Then take a look at the Open Security Conference (@OSCo@infosec.exchange). #osco25 takes place from October 2 to 5 in Rückersbach (Germany near Frankfurt) and registration is still open at https://opensecurityconference.org/.
(this is an English version of the original German thread https://infosec.exchange/@realn2s/114936419689473030)Why?
The Open Security Conference aims to be diverse and inclusive. This also includes different levels of knowledge and experience.
It is therefore not only for security experts or for people who have (already) worked in the security sector for a long time,
but also for people who are interested in security or want to get into the field.
The #OpenSpace format not only enables expert presentations,
but also non-expert topics or questions as session topics. Sessions are not resticted to presentations, they can be interactive, collaborative, workshops or basically anything else.
Since topics do not have to be submitted months in advance,
but the agenda is created jointly by the participants, hot topics can also be covered.
The conference is non-commercial, i.e. the total costs are shared between the participants (including the organizers).
The costs include accommodation and meals in the conference hotel.
And yes, there are also sponsors who cover part of the costs.But not everything is different.
There are great keynotes e.g. by @bkastl@mastodon.social ("History repeating itself") and Mireia Cano ("Building an AppSec Program from Scratch").

Habt ihr Interesse an einer etwas anderen Sicherheitskonferenz?
#BoostWelcome
Dann schaut euch mal die #osco25 an. Sie findet vom 2-5 Oktober in Rückersbach statt und die Registrierung ist noch offen
https://opensecurityconference.org/【Warum?】
Die @OSCo@infosec.exchange hat das Ziel divers und inklusiv zu sein. Das schließt auch unterschiedliche Wissens- und Erfahrungsstände mit ein. Sie ist also nicht nur für Sicherheitsexpert*innen oder für Menschen die schon lange im Sicherheitsbereich arbeiten.
Das #OpenSpace Format ermöglicht nicht nur Expert*inne-Präsentationen, sondern es können "Halbwissen"-Themen* oder auch einfach Fragen behandelt werden. Da Vorträge nicht Monate im Voraus eingereicht werden müssen sondern die Agenda von den Teilnehmenden gemeinsam erstellt wird, können auch brandaktuelle Themen behandelt werden.
Die Konferenz ist nicht-komerziell, sprich die Gesamtkosten werden zwischen den Teilnehmenden (inklusive Organisator*innen) aufgeteilt. Die Konsten enthalten die Übernachtung und Verpflegung im Tagungshotel.
Und ja, es gibt auch Sponsoren die Teile der Kosten übernehmen.
Es ist aber nicht alles anders. Es gibt auch Keynotes z.B. von @bkastl@mastodon.social ("History repeating itself") und Mireia Cano ("Building an AppSec Program from Scratch")
Wenn es euch interessiert registriert euch unter https://register.opensecurityconference.org/

I'm just in a process training. One topic is Weighted Shortest Job First (#WSJF). For some reason if got a bad feeling about the use of WSJF. It feels like adding several unknown values (guesstimates) and dividing by some more unknowns, leading to an arbitrary result with questionalble value which isn't free.
The official devicition is
Cost of Delay / Job Size
where
Cost of Delay = User-Business Value + Time Criticality + Risk Reduction and/or Opportunity Enablement.
IMHO Agile is all about theat we generally don't know the Job Size, and are regularly wrong (biased) about the (User) Buisness Value.
The samme applies to Risk Reduction and Opportunity Enablement. If there isn't a fixed external dealine also the Time Criticality is pretty arbitray (reading pure opinion or politics)
Anyone has experience with it?
