Last week at our internal meetup at Solita I gave a talk “Please don’t do that” about the most frequent accessibility issues and how to avoid them. (Wanna hear it too? Join me in Tampere on 6th of June at TampereJS! https://lnkd.in/dFWbE-Ki) The second most frequent accessibility issue is missing alternative text on images; one of the participants asked if it would be possible to bake-in an alternative text into the image’s metadata. Solving the lack of alts for sure, but would that be the way to go? The intent is indeed good and the solution is technically possible, but there’s quite a few problems with it. Eric Bailey wrote a great piece on this, analyzing so many aspects: from images being contextual, through localization, performance, tone, all the way to manipulation and malware. Give it a read for some pleasant horizon-broadening: https://lnkd.in/d2e2evcE

Hei, we’re looking for your input on a better tagline for AdaCon. We’ve always focused on bringing a diverse set of new speakers from Norway to stage that deliver great tech talks. But we have been perceived as a diversity conference, not as a tech conference. Let's fix that! More details in this Google Doc: https://lnkd.in/eBSJgfay

I had a great talk 🗣️ about TDD 🔁 and Coding Dojos at Piktiv AB, a talk building on things I first learned with Fredrik Wendt at JDojo 13 years ago 🤯, adding my experience and some ideas brought to me by Samuel Ytterbrink last year 🤝. Now I can't count how many times I've thought this, but it's such a core and important topic for successful software development 🏗️, and I am still learn 🧠. The talk was well-received 👍, but I can't stop thinking about the fact that that was the best picture from the talk 😂. Guess why I was wearing the headphones that way 🤔? #TDD #CodingDojo #SoftwareDevelopment #AlwaysLearning

After much hard work, today we officially released our user facing EU-election AI chatbot "Valkompisen": https://lnkd.in/d-WbXn63 . This project is a cooperation between Aftonbladet Editorial Team and the Aftonbladet AI-hub team. The "Election Buddy" is based on OpenAI's GPT-4 technology. To ensure the provision of relevant and accurate information about the EU and the EU elections, we have created a database containing facts reviewed by Aftonbladet's journalists. It also includes responses to multiple surveys answered by the eight parliamentary parties and their top 10 candidates. A significant part of the database also consists of facts about the EU election, the structure of the EU, the history of the EU, current topics in the EU debate, votes in the European Parliament, party groups, and much more. When a user asks a question, the AI bot performs a semantic search in the database to retrieve relevant facts. The bot then combines this information and formulates a well-founded response. The Election Buddy has also been provided with guidelines, or "prompts," that direct how it should use the information to respond and what tone and personality it should convey. To ask questions you can press the predefined questions or login to ask your own questions.

Okey, How is it feasible to have over 600 companies in finland conducting "software development consultancy" services. and still time to time I hear new (consultancy) company founded. By quickly doing a simple search they all also proclaim to be the best and most effective companies with the brightest talent. Just wondering how many consultancy companies can finland fit ?-)

The intersection between speedcubers and neovim users is probably not that high, but there is atleast one in existance (yours truely), so here we are. I felt the pull of the lua language yet again and decided to create a small plugin for neovim. The usual problem of "what should the plugin do?" arose but I quickly fell upon something that I always have on my desk when I work: my cube. Everyone has seen one, but not a whole lot of people can solve them. To solve them you need to scramble them. This seems like a strange issue but when you solve the cube in less than 30 seconds you might need to scramble the cube quite a few times in each session. Hence this plugin, now I can get a scramble whenever I want by just pressing the appropriate key mapping in neovim. My personal best on the cube is 19.60 seconds. My best average of 5 (do 5 consecutive solves, remove the slowest and the fastest and average the rest) is 27.46 seconds. By no means great but decent for a hobbyist. As a reference the world record is 3.13s single solve and 4.48s average of 5. Here is the plugin. https://lnkd.in/dqyHNmz6 A small note about the name of the plugin: When I got the idea I was listening to the song Den Svarta Fanan and decided that I wanted to honor Miesko Talarczyk (RIP) by naming the plugin after a song that he created.

Put your heart in it and make it happen. That's what these guys did when they gathered, teamed up with Google and created the competence developing forum ”Flutter Örebro” to put Sweden on the map of the global Flutter Community network!📍   We can't help but feel proud and inspired when we see Alexander, Jonas & Tommie paving the way for curious minds and tech students - by embracing and spreading knowledge about new technology.   ”We want to challenge the future of front-end. Why not combine game theory and business applications, to see what can be done on a device? Utilize animations in your GUI and let the creativity guide you instead of the framework holding you back.”   #futuretech #frontend #tech #flutter

In these days, exchanging ideas and information between organisations in friendly countries is more important than ever. After the first half day I already see one theme which is common among us. There is too much talk and not enough do. Questions that will be asked includes because of this, what has been done, what effect did it have, what did one learn? And that not only success stories, but also experiences on what not to do. These will be interesting days, and I urge people interested to follow Kungl. Ingenjörsvetenskapsakademien, IVA here this week to learn a lot. Because if there is something we do in the academy is sharing. Alone is not strong. Only together we will survive.

I finally managed to get a local instance of Open WebUI running on the servers of Helsingør Kommune, thanks to help from our talented IT department. Even though we do not have any GPUs, the performance of Llama3 8B is still decent on a 100GB CPU server. This setup allows case-workers to use the power of GenAI without worrying about sensitive data being stored on OpenAI's servers. Next, we will stress test the server to determine whether we need to add some GPUs (we probably will). #GenAI #AI #DataPrivacy #HelsingørKommune #OpenWebUI #Llama3 #TechInnovation #ServerPerformance #GPUs #DigitalTransformation #SecureAI #FutureOfWork
