Canva has more than 20 billion user-uploaded images, with 50 million uploaded daily.
Dealing with a large variety of media creates difficulties when it comes to moderating and minimizing unnecessary duplicate content

To solve this problem, Canva uses perceptual hashing with an internally built reverse image search system
My #indoorairquality & #thermalcomfort lectures in a nutshell...this the stuff we need to teach #architects and #engineers but don't...neither of these fields are complete without understanding human factors. S/o @ashraenews
One of the cool studies I talk about is particle emission from carpets and respiration by infants crawling across the floor...it's a real thing...s/o to Wu & Boor from Purdue
I also tall about the use of PET scans to observe the brain's response to skin heating and cooling...both critical in thermal comfort design.
THE GREAT RESET: Over 200,000 people have been laid off in the #tech industry this year, and the flood of new talent has started to change the job market.

1/ The Great Resignation and the ease of wage hikes when changing jobs may be over.
56% of U.S. professionals said they would accept the same or LESS pay in a new role, per an April 2023 survey by Blind

I have met many mathematicians, #engineers, and #statisticians, from different countries, but, the ones that are graduates of #French and Belgian Universities are probably the best that I have come across.
What makes these countries so proficient when it comes to teaching #maths?

During the early 1990s, most of the #Quants and Financial Engineers who joined the Financial Services industry in the City of #London came from France.
French Mathematicians changed the way banking & asset mgmt was done.
Actuaries at @CityUniLondon dominated Insurance

Step #1
Use #nocode or #lowcode solutions to build your #product from scratch (needs $15-30 for domains and nocode platform)
You don't need funds or hire engineers/designers to build your product just grow your skillset.

While Belgium is about to become one of the first countries to mandate #CO2monitors in bars, no evidence supports their use, which is particularly problematic in clinical medicine #EBM. How are CO2 levels in hospitals? What does the literature say? @HuffmanLabDU @j_g_allen
Widely varying results have been reported, with values >1000 p.p.m. up to 3000 p.p.m. in low-income setttings vs. excellent values in high-resource settings

"The #OFQUAL #algorithm is a gross misuse of statistics... there is a special place in hell for those who use maths to hide rather than reveal the truth, this algorithm is hiding the achievement of this generation of young people." my @ChronicleLive blog chroniclelive.co.uk/news/news-opin…
Most people now think the #AlevelResults should not stand, whether the Govt will recognise that or not is another matter. But we shouldn't blame #algorithms for this huge injustice - like most technology they are neither good nor bad in themselves
And I don't blame those who wrote the #algorithm I do think #engineers (like me) & #datascientists should take a 'do no harm' oath like doctors, but currently there is no framework for that & they were presumably working to a spec
Taleb wrote, “...arguments should be simplified to their maximum potential; but often people confuse complex ideas that cannot be simplified into a media-friendly statement as symptomatic of a confused mind.”

And Einstein supposedly said, “All things should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.”
But it turns out that was probably a simplification.
But it turns out that was probably a simplification.
What Einstein actually wrote was, “the supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single datum of experience.”

Arrange the IT firms like Hospitals and everything will fall in place. Doctor Consultation (UX Consultation / Solution Consultation) in one corner. If Doctors need some testing done, then they will forward it to the testing lab. Testing by Test Specialist (Usability Specialist)
in another corner. Pharmacy (necessary services to keep the client afloat) in the main entrance. Operation Theater (Strategist / Data Scientist) in 2nd Floor. Emergency ward (DevOps) in a separate building. Well nurses, what do they do? They work as per Doctor's instruction
so yup they are the developers. But everyone must understand Doctor's Hand Writing!!!

Recently I saw a lot of opening for Usability #Engineers in Indian #IT #companies. So this query came to my mind, is Usability Engineer
an appropriate term in IT or should it be called Usability #Analyst? A lot of Bachelors of #Interaction Design and Bachelors of #Product Design progress to become Usability Analyst in IT. In such cases would it be appropriate to call Bachelors of Design as Engineers?
How would this affect CMMI, ISO, Accessibility Act, Hazard & risk and other such Standards?
The #UX #Teapot Philosophy of Cohesive Vision Design Driven Organisation. The generic approach of Technology Companies to solve a problem in typical engineering way is to throw a lot of people for a challenge, pour in lot of money and then choose the most efficient solution.
However this doesn't work with UX. A famous Proverb as it says "World's 7 great artists sitting around a table drawing a tea pot all from their perspective of vision". That would be 7 different pictures all equally appealing and flawless. When you distribute designers
based on module with no centralize Design CoE to channelize and cultivate a cohesive vision design philosophy, all you receive is so many different perspective in the same product. It complicate the seamless integration of one module with another at all levels.
