Leveraging games lifecycle to increase revenue & retention
There is no longer any argument that mobile games have shifted from Premium to Freemium business models.
However, there are few who understand how to deliver this model effectively.
In this Webinar Papaya Mobile's Oscar Clark will take a look at the > different life stages of games and how developers can leverage this to increase the engagement and enjoyment for their players.
He will talk about how designers can predict the user-lifecycle stages of Discovery, Learning, Earning and Churning to get the most out of the flow of the game.
These are the design techniques employed by companies who have created mobile social games generating 15% conversion and ARPPDAU of $30+
Automated Interactions With WorldCat: A Look at OCLC’s WorldCat Metadata APITerry Reese
This document summarizes OCLC's WorldCat Metadata API, which allows for the creation, reading, updating, and deletion of bibliographic records and institutional holdings in WorldCat. It describes available operations through the API as well as challenges around authentication, documentation, and lack of a sandbox environment. Potential uses are also outlined, such as automating technical services processes, batch record ingestion, and building pipelines between library systems and WorldCat. Integration with the tool MarcEdit is discussed for batch institutional holdings management and bibliographic record creation/updating through the API.
"The term "Microservice Architecture" has sprung up over the last few years to describe a particular way of designing software applications as suites of independently deployable services. While there is no precise definition of this architectural style, there are certain common characteristics around organization around business capability, automated deployment, intelligence in the endpoints, and decentralized control of languages and data."

Ransomware is a type of malicious software, or malware, that encrypts a victim's files. The attacker then demands a ransom, typically in cryptocurrency, in exchange for decryption. Ransomware attacks have become increasingly common and successful, with ransom demands growing in size. While some victims choose to pay the ransom, there are no guarantees the files will be recovered or that other attacks will be prevented. Experts recommend regular backups, up-to-date antivirus software, and caution against opening suspicious links or attachments as the best defenses against ransomware.
Hack The Capitol - The Unlikely Romance - Critical Infrastructure EditionCasey Ellis
The document discusses the increasing adoption of crowdsourced security practices like vulnerability disclosure programs (VDP) and bug bounty programs within critical infrastructure sectors. It notes that while conservative sectors are slower to adopt these practices, regulatory pressure is accelerating their adoption. The document also observes that aging critical infrastructure organizations tend to have many publicly accessible initial access vectors, and that digital transformation compounds this issue. Finally, it discusses moving security practices from a "broke" to "woke" approach, emphasizing the human aspects of security rather than just technology.

Devops and Intentional Emergence - Velocity Conferencejstogdill
Presented at Velocity Conference in September in New York City.
The information age is replacing the industrial age and corporations are going through changes as big as their original adoption of bureaucracy as an organizing principle.
This talk describes the notion of "Intentional Emergence" in a corporate setting. The idea that managers and technologists should create conditions for emergent outcomes rather than always focusing on the outcome itself.
DevOps and other mechanisms for a more dynamic IT culture are important to this end.
This document discusses how corporations can leverage digital technologies to enhance their intelligence. It suggests that a corporation's intelligence (IQcorp) depends on factors like fluid intelligence (Gf), crystallized intelligence (Gc), quantitative reasoning (Gq), memory (Gsm/Glr), processing speed (Gs), and decision speed (Gt). While humans currently excel in areas like fluid intelligence, digital technologies can augment corporations in other factors like crystallized intelligence, memory, and processing speed through techniques such as analytics, machine learning, and collaborative workflows. The document argues that through a symbiotic human-machine relationship, corporations can develop super-human levels of intelligence.
The document discusses how corporations can become more innovative by adopting post-bureaucratic models that allow for emergent and networked behaviors. It argues that intentionally enabling emergence through open source practices, low barriers to participation, and generative systems can produce unanticipated innovation from broad audiences. The key is impedance matching organizations to the decentralized world through policies, architectures, and cultures that enhance long-tail contribution from self-organizing groups.
W-JAX Keynote - Big Data and Corporate Evolutionjstogdill
A look at corporate evolution from the industrial revolution to the information age - with a focus on how Big Data will make an impact.
Presented at W-JAX Java Conference in Munich Germany, 11-8-11
This document discusses building open source software in the Department of Defense and encourages contractors to adopt more open source practices. It outlines three ways that government-funded source code could be made openly available, including having the government assert rights and share the code. Contractors are encouraged to release their copyrights to open source communities to delight customers, do more with less, and hire great developers. Examples are given of projects that benefited from becoming more open source. The document raises questions about whether adopting open source means complying with community processes, being prepared to work with people who see an ethical dimension, and how to deal with other groups forking openly released code.
The document discusses several key points about cyber warfare and coding:
1. Coding is a form of maneuver in cyber warfare, as code can be changed and adapted quickly to respond to new threats or vulnerabilities. Technological agility will be important in cyber warfare where there are no compensating physical assets.
2. Cyber situational awareness is different than traditional battlespace awareness, but they should still be related. Integrating cyber and physical target data will be important for coordination.
3. Culture is important in cyber operations and cannot be done in isolation. Participating in communities of practice and using open source tools and techniques will be necessary to learn from others and adapt quickly to changes.

Fluttercon 2024: Showing that you care about security - OpenSSF Scorecards fo...Chris Swan
Have you noticed the OpenSSF Scorecard badges on the official Dart and Flutter repos? It's Google's way of showing that they care about security. Practices such as pinning dependencies, branch protection, required reviews, continuous integration tests etc. are measured to provide a score and accompanying badge.
You can do the same for your projects, and this presentation will show you how, with an emphasis on the unique challenges that come up when working with Dart and Flutter.
The session will provide a walkthrough of the steps involved in securing a first repository, and then what it takes to repeat that process across an organization with multiple repos. It will also look at the ongoing maintenance involved once scorecards have been implemented, and how aspects of that maintenance can be better automated to minimize toil.
