Podcasts about dependencies

In this eye-opening episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano welcomes back Chris Fenton, author of Feeding the Dragon: Inside the Trillion Dollar Dilemma Facing Hollywood, the NBA, and American Business. They explore how China uses economic leverage, propaganda, and soft power to infiltrate American institutions, from corporate boardrooms to TikTok's algorithm. Fenton breaks down why U.S. companies and even government officials refuse to challenge the CCP, and how American culture has been co-opted to serve Chinese interests. With tensions escalating globally, this is a conversation every American needs to hear. Episode Highlights Why Hollywood and major U.S. businesses bend over backwards to appease the Chinese Communist Party How TikTok became China's most powerful tool to influence and divide America's youth Why the U.S. must prioritize national security over profits and end our dangerous dependency on Beijing

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. In this episode, I discuss my ongoing project aimed at mapping the dependencies municipalities have on major third-party digital services, particularly focusing on Microsoft and Google , given their dominance in the market. The aim of this research isn't about debating the quality of these products—it's assumed that with thousands of employees, these services meet most quality expectations. Instead, the focus is on the critical implications of widespread dependency and potential risks related to service interruptions or supply chain attacks. Why is this important? Supply Chain Attacks : High dependency means higher vulnerability to targeted disruptions. Business Continuity : Significant risks were illustrated by incidents such as the CrowdStrike outage in July 2024 , which forced Brussels Airport back to pencil-and-paper operations temporarily. My Research Approach: Primarily, I analyze the DNS MX records of municipalities: MX records typically reveal if mail services are hosted on Microsoft (Office 365/Exchange Online) or Google (Workspace). A high probability that using these providers for email also means municipalities likely depend on the respective cloud office suite (e.g., Word/Excel/SharePoint or Docs/Sheets/Drive). Preliminary Observations: Belgium, Finland, Netherlands : Over 70% of municipalities rely heavily on Microsoft mail services, a significant warning sign of dependency. Germany, Hungary : Fewer than 5% of municipalities use Microsoft or Google explicitly via MX records, though caution is necessary. Here's why: Challenges Identified: Local MS Exchange Servers : Municipally hosted local installations aren't externally identifiable via MX records. Mail Proxies : Some municipalities use mail proxy services (spam/phishing filters) obscuring the actual mail service used behind proxy domains. Techniques Tested: SPF Records : Often reveal the underlying email service, though they may contain outdated information, lowering reliability. Telnet EHLO Commands : Municipalities commonly obscure their SMTP headers, limiting usefulness. Cloud Provider IP-Ranges : Investigating if mail servers run on Google, Amazon, or Azure infrastructure. Even if identified, this alone doesn't clarify if proprietary or replaceable services are used. TXT Records : Occasionally contain subscription keys or mail-related settings (e.g., MS subscriptions, Mailjet), but again, could be historical remnants. Unfortunately, none of these get to show me all of the third party services. Community Call: I'm reaching out to listeners and the broader community for ideas or techniques on reliably fingerprinting the actual digital service providers behind mail servers. Specifically: How to accurately determine if servers run Microsoft or Google services ? Any ideas to detect deployments of Nextcloud or similar open-source alternatives? Resources: Project Webpage : jurgen.gaeremyn.be/map.html Source Code : gitlab.com/jurgeng/mxcheck I'm looking forward to all your suggestions in the comments! Provide feedback on this episode.

News this week has been dominated by dependency issues and attribution towards unwanted nation states and actors. Specifically, easyjson is developed by a Russian firm that is under sanctions. The podcast duo discuss the implications and how to protect apps from sub-dependency threats. This leads to a deep dive into breaches and whether a breach has an effect on the industry, company, or individual. Current regulations and certifications can be lost, but does not always have the effect we would expect.

In this episode, we dig into the lies we tell ourselves, about being “cool,” about our progress, and ask: are they really lies, or deeper truths in disguise? We kick things off with a hilarious Gen Z slang fail, then dive into how perfectionism blocks momentum in business, creativity, and life. With stories from CEOs, screenwriters, and our own messy projects, we show why sharing unpolished work is essential. From parenting lessons to political rants (with a Star Wars twist), we explore finding peace in chaos, valuing moments over stuff, and staying adaptable. It's raw, real, and hopefully, really useful.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------(0:00:02) - Common Lies We Tell Ourselves(0:10:02) - Navigating Strategy and Procrastination(0:23:24) - The Gift of Contentment(0:32:46) - Navigating Imperfection and Ruin(0:37:53) - Letting Go of Dependencies(0:41:29) - Discovering Humility Through Self-Reflection(0:50:02) - The Value of Self-AwarenessSend us a text

Dependencies Destroy Agility and PredictabilityWhy do organizations desire Agile?Two of the most common items I hear organizations and executives identify as reasons for adopting Agile methods and practices are to increase their delivery speed and to become more predicable. When will X be done? There are valid financial reasons for these goals such as: when can we expect to book revenue for product X?How to connect with AgileDad:- [website] https://www.agiledad.com/- [instagram] https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/- [facebook] https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/- [Linkedin] https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

في حلقة النهارده هنتكلم عن موضوع مهم في تطوير الويب، وهو الـ "Monorepo". ببساطة، المونوريپو هو مكان واحد بنحط فيه مشاريع كتير بتاعتنا، بدل ما كل مشروع يبقى له Repository خاص بيه. يعني بدل ما يبقى عندك كذا "بيت" للمشاريع، كلهم بيبقوا في "بيت العيلة".طيب، ليه نعمل كده؟ فيه فوايد كتير. أول حاجة، الكود بيتشارك بسهولة بين المشاريع المختلفة. لو عندك Component كويس، تقدر تستخدمه في أكتر من مشروع من غير ما تكرره. تاني حاجة، إدارة الـ Dependencies بتبقى أسهل بكتير، ومشاكلها أقل. كمان، التغييرات اللي بنعملها في الكود بتبقى متناسقة بين كل المشاريع، وده بيقلل المشاكل. ده غير إن الشغل بيبقى أسرع، والتيم بيقدر يشتغل مع بعض بشكل أحسن.لكن، زي أي حاجة، المونوريپو له تحدياته. مهم برضو نختار الأدوات المناسبة، زي Nx أو Turborepo أو pnpm workspaces، كل أداة ليها مميزاتها.في الحلقة دي، هنشرح كل ده بالتفصيل، وهنعرف إمتى نستخدم المونوريپو وإمتى لأ!لينكات مفيدة:NxTurborepopnpm workspacesLerna

The unpredictability of AI's trajectory is part of what makes it so exciting.Human Adaptation to Technology: The conversation highlights how the layering of technological abstractions over time has allowed more people to interact with complex systems without needing deep technical knowledge. This trend is accelerating with AI, making once-daunting tasks more accessible even to non-technical individuals.The Role of Creativity in the AI Era: Diego discusses how creativity, unpredictability, and humor remain uniquely human strengths that current AI struggles to replicate. These qualities could play a significant role in maintaining human relevance in an AI-enabled world.The Evolving Nature of Coding: AI is changing how developers work, reducing the need for intricate coding knowledge while enabling a focus on solving more human-centric problems. While some coding skills may atrophy, understanding fundamental principles remains essential for adapting to new tools.Argentina's Unique Position: The discussion explores Argentina's potential to emerge as a significant player in AI due to its history of technological creativity, economic unpredictability, and resourcefulness. The parallels with its early adoption of crypto demonstrate a readiness to engage with transformative technologies.AI and Human Relationships: An AI-enabled economy might allow humans to focus more on meaningful, human-centric work and relationships as machines take over repetitive and mechanical tasks. This could redefine the value humans derive from work and their interactions with technology.Risks and Opportunities with AI Agents: The development of autonomous AI agents raises significant security and ethical concerns, such as ensuring they act responsibly and are not exploited by malicious actors. At the same time, these agents promise unprecedented levels of efficiency and autonomy in managing real-world tasks.

Or watch the video version on YouTube. Bret is joined by Willem Delbare and Roeland Delrue to discuss Aikido, a security tool consolidation platform designed specifically for smaller teams and solo DevOps practitioners. The discussion explores how Aikido addresses the growing challenges of software supply chain security by bringing together various security tools - from CVE scanning to cloud API analysis - under a single, manageable portal. Unlike enterprise-focused solutions, Aikido targets the needs of smaller teams and individual DevOps engineers who often juggle multiple responsibilities. During the episode, they demonstrate Aikido's capabilities using Bret's sample GitHub organization, and show how teams can implement comprehensive security measures without managing multiple separate tools.Be sure to check out video version of the complete show for demos, from our December 5, 2024 YouTube Live stream.★Topics★Aikido websiteAikido on BlueskyAikido on LinkedInCreators & Guests Cristi Cotovan - Editor Beth Fisher - Producer Bret Fisher - Host Willem Delbare - Guest Roeland Delrue - Guest (00:00) - Intro (06:20) - Aikido Origin Story (10:32) - What Does AutoFix Mean?

Join me as I talk with experienced Business Continuity Management (BCM), Incident Management, and Emergency Response specialist, Jennifer Park, as we discuss why organizations and leadership downplay the importance of BCM along with what it can offer organizations. During our discussion we touch on: 1. Defining BCM and resilience (Jennifer's view), 2. Viewing BCM as a short-term initiative, 3. 'Chicken little' syndrome, 4. Periodic rebuilding of programs, 5. Create and show value, 6. AI has the answers, 7. RTO misunderstandings, 8. Aligning BCM with IT, 9. Not understanding impacts and dependencies (it's not just the number of people using an application!), 10. Decisions, 11. Prioritization and reprioritization, 12. Tips to improve BCM visibility...and much more! Jennifer share some great insights on why organization leadership may not fully understand the complexity and benefits of a good BCM program, while also offer suggestions on how to improve our own if we aren't getting the traction we want. Enjoy!

If you had told me that Sporting KC was going to head up to New Jersey without a number of players and come away with a 1-1 draw before the game started I'd have probably thought that was a decent result.  Unfortunately, the way they went about achieving said draw left a bit of a sour taste in the mouths of fans and was a reminder of how many leads the club has shipped in the 2nd half of games the season.   Sporting KC will also be without perhaps the most promising member of the roster, Jake Davis, for the next 2 league matches after he somehow acquired two yellow cards in a matter of 10 minutes.  Jake continues to be a bright spot in a pretty dour season, and it's telling that his suspension is causing as much consternation as it is amongst Sporting KC fans. We will dive a bit deeper into the Roster conversation as it seems Peter Vermes is trying to get good looks at a number of players over the waning months of the season, and discuss what type of turnover is good, and what can perhaps be too much. Finally, there are a number of topics to cover in Potpourri before we do a quick preview of another road trip for Sporting KC as they head to the Pacific Northwest to take on the Seattle Sounders.

The work of the registrar is cyclical and complex. Dependencies abound between and among systems and offices. How do you keep track of all of the tasks required to make everything run smoothly in your office and on your campus? Use a production calendar. In this episode we'll talk about what a production calendar is, how to use one, its relationship to the academic calendar, along with tips and tricks for getting the most out of this critical tool in a registrar's resources. Key Takeaways:Your production calendar should be informed by your academic calendar. The academic calendar governs the flow of each term for the institution, while your production calendar governs the work your office does to support each action in the term.Your production calendar doesn't have to be fancy or have a lot of whistles and bells, but it needs to be shared across your office (and potentially with other offices) and it needs to be used. Make it a habit to review your production calendar regularly, and have your teams review it, as well, to be more proactive.  Getting started with a production calendar can seem overwhelming, but take it a little at a time. Go through one academic cycle and track all the things that you or your team does. Over time, include more granularity for the tasks with links to documentation or the text of repeated messages. Operate with a mindset of “progressive elaboration,” or “continuous improvement.”Host:Doug McKenna, University RegistrarGeorge Mason Universitycmckenn@gmu.edu Guests:Amber Cellotti, Deputy Registrar & Director, Office of the RegistrarUniversity of Minnesota - Twin Citiesknap0071@umn.edu Nicolas Jobe, University RegistrarSeton Hill Universitynjobe@setonhill.edu Traci Rees, Associate University Registrar for Student Systems & Information ServicesUniversity of Pennsylvaniartraci@upenn.edu Elissa Thoman, Registrar Services Coordinator University of Iowaelissa-thoman@uiowa.edu  References and Additional Information:AACRAO Core Competencies - Change ManagementAACRAO Core Competencies - Leadership & ManagementAACRAO Professional Proficiencies - Records and Academic ServicesPivot to a Successful Production Calendar - Annual Meeting Presentation by Traci Rees

Guests Eva Maxfield Brown | Boris Veytsman Panelist Richard Littauer Show Notes In this episode of Sustain, host Richard Littauer engages with guests Eva Maxfield Brown and Boris Veytsman to explore their co-authored paper, "Biomedical Open Source Software: Crucial Packages and Hidden Heroes." The paper focuses on identifying crucial but often overlooked software dependencies in biomedical research. The discussions delve into how the study used data from two million papers to map these dependencies, revealing both well-supported and undermaintained software components vital to scientific research. There's a conversation on the methodological challenges and the concept of "Nebraska packages," which are essential yet potentially undermaintained elements crucial to the software stack used in both industry and science. The conversation also covers broader implications for software sustainability, security, and future research directions, including improving how software contributions are tracked and recognized within scientific careers. Press download now to hear more! [00:01:47] Richard dives into the paper co-authored by Eva and Boris. Boris explains the origins of the paper, starting from a workshop at CZI aimed at accelerating science through sustainable software, leading to the analysis of software used in biomedical research. He highlights the focus on identifying crucial yet often unmentioned software dependencies in research software, which he labels as “unsung heroes.” [00:05:22] Boris provides findings from their study, noting that while many foundational packages were cited, there are significant packages that, despite their critical role, remain uncited. [00:06:43] Eva discusses the concept of “Nebraska packages,” which are essential yet potentially undermaintained components that are crucial to the software stack used in both industry and science. Also, she elaborates on the methodological challenges of determining which packages to include in their analysis, particularly in terms of dependencies that vary between different users and contexts. [00:09:42] Richard reflects on the broader implications of their discussion for the open source community, particularly in terms of software sustainability and security. Eva emphasizes the importance of security across all fields and discusses the potential impact of software bugs on scientific research and the need for robust software infrastructure. [00:12:04] Boris comments on the necessity of well-tested tools in the scientific community, given that many scientists may lack a strong background in software development and training. [00:13:47] Richard quotes from the paper discussing the absence of cycles in the network of software packages used in science, indicating a more robust design compared to general software. He questions this in light of earlier comments about scientists not being great at coding. [00:14:08] Eva explains that the paper's findings about acyclic dependencies (DAGs) might seem surprising given the common perception that scientific software is poorly developed. She notes that while scientists may not be trained in proper software packaging, the Python environment helps prevent cyclic dependencies. [00:17:31] Richard brings up “Katz centrality” which is discussed in the paper, and Boris clarifies that “Katz centrality” refers to a concept by Leo Katz on network centrality, explaining how it helps determine the importance of nodes within a network. [00:20:13] Richard questions the practical applications of the research findings, probing for advice on supporting crucial but underrecognized dependencies within software ecosystems. Eva addresses future research directions, including improving ecosystem matching algorithms for better accuracy in linking software mentions to the correct ecosystems. [00:22:50] Eva suggests expanding the research to cover more domains beyond biomedicine, considering different software needs across various scientific disciplines. Boris discusses the potential for targeted interventions to support underrecognized contributors in the scientific software community aiming to enhance their prestige. [00:27:22] Richard asks how the research team plans to map dependencies to individual contributors and track their motivations. Boris responds that while they have gathered substantial data from sources like GitHub logs, publishing this information poses ethical challenges due to privacy concerns. [00:28:45] Eva discusses her work on linking GitHub profiles to academic authors using ORCID identifiers to better track contributions to scientific software. [00:31:42] Richard brings up the broader impacts of their research, questioning whether their study on software packages centrality within the scientific community is unique or if there are similar studies at this scale. Eva acknowledges the need for more comprehensive studies and cites a previous study from 2015 that analyzed developer networks on GitHub. Boris adds that while there is extensive literature on scientific citation networks, the study of dependencies is less explored.

Have you ever seen another programmer who wasn't as skilled as you get promoted? Did you tell yourself management was making a mistake? Earlier in my career I didn't realize I was doing some things that caused managers to lose confidence in me. I would spend all my time writing code and never think about how I came across to other people. In this episode, I share some harsh truths I've learned about how being a software engineer can cause us to do things we think the company wants - that actually hurt our reputation in the long run. Companies are actually paying you for confidence as a programmer. And this episode is full of practical strategies for making sure you don't fall into traps that stop you from getting recognized for the great code you write as a programmer - before your career is really getting started!

Show Notes And keep in mind that, not to bash OWASP and the top ten at all because I'm a big fan of OWASP, but people always tell me like, "yeah, I'm OWASP compliant," and that's the biggest BS, to be honest. Because a top ten could not like, it should be an awareness piece and you should work from it. And there are better ways of dealing with that. But I think a security scorecard should never be a goal. It should be a means to reach the goal, to have better understanding, right? And hopefully they can change stuff and be more expressive. — Niels Tanis Welcome to The Modern .NET Show! Formerly known as The .NET Core Podcast, we are the go-to podcast for all .NET developers worldwide and I am your host Jamie "GaProgMan" Taylor. In this episode, Niels Tanis returned to the show. He was previous on the show back in episode 69 - The Risks of Third Party Code With Niels Tanis - which was released back in February of 2021. I asked Niels to back on the show to talk more about securing the software development supply chain and SBoMs (Software Bills of Materials). Yeah, that makes sense. It's funny. So I think when I started out talking about supply chain, and there were some tools that have been introduced to do SBoM data, and then you also come into an area called provenance, which tells more about the build and about "this build server was used. And I've run on GitHub actions, or I run on a GitLab instance, or I have stuff done differently," right? Maybe even the Redhat one: Tekton, that kind of thing. And based on that, I'm producing an SBoM. And I did a talk and I concluded with that, "it's like, these are cool tools, you need to look into it." And then somebody at the end asked me the question, "and the what? You have all the data? And then what?" I said, "yeah, that's solid question because that will be the next step." And it's funny that you mentioned it as well. So over the time, I think it was around already when I started out talking. But there's a project that Google created called Guac. — Niels Tanis So let's sit back, open up a terminal, type in dotnet new podcast and we'll dive into the core of Modern .NET.

In this episode we are looking at how the public sector is embracing the hybrid cloud model and what steps need to be taken to be certain our information, as members of the public, is kept safe. It's a big issue. In 2021 and 2022 the largest percentage of cyber threats and attacks were reported by governments and the public sector, according to the European Parliament. So, what operational security strategies are being tailored for public sector needs? How does regulation differ between the public and private sector when it comes to hybrid cloud security? And how can leaders in health, education, the military, public transport and law enforcement ensure that adopting a hybrid cloud model is a secure option? To fill us in is Simon Leech, Director at Hewlett Packard Enterprise's Center of Excellence for Cybersecurity and Digital Risk Management.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

This episode is a meditation on screwing with our dependencies in Lent. In the language of the Twelve Steps of addiction recovery: we are powerless over our drug of choice, and our lives as we know them are unmanageable. The purpose of Lent is to subvert our addictions that we might become more dependent upon the love of God. But we cannot do this easily. We cannot force our way toward healing and holiness. When we over-function and strive toward God, we set ourselves up for regression. In this episode we turn to the wisdom of Thomas a'Kempis, that we “uproot just one vice per year.” This is to say we must make a plan for Lent that is gracefully approachable.I encourage you to use the 40 Ways to Spend Five Minutes with God prayer guide for your Lenten practice.
