HIGHLIGHTS:
• Proposed U-ViT model based on Prithvi GFM for multi-sensor glacial lake mapping.
• Achieved an F1 score of 0.894 on Sentinel-1&2, surpassing CNNs scoring below 0.8.
• Maintains strong performance with 50% less training data, proving efficiency.
• Excels in detecting small lakes (<0.01km²) and handling clouds and complex terrains..."

"managers should work to identify and reduce sources of stress for their teams, since working under more-stressful conditions can impact employees’ consistency in following security protocols (not to mention their well-being and effectiveness across a slew of other metrics). In particular, especially as remote work becomes more common, managers should be cognizant of the psychological burden to employees of working under systems that monitor them. Surveillance systems that seemed reasonable in the office might feel intrusive at home — and even if there’s no obvious, direct fallout, our research suggests that the added stress could indirectly make people more likely to break security protocols."—Clay Posey & Mindy Shoss

Knowing and not knowing at conferences through the lens of Mary Oliver’s poetry, where metrics meet wonder, connection, and the intangible

Metrics are always a difficult thing. Youre trying to convey the success of a program with numbers when it isnt always that straight forward.
Enter the vendors.

"Metric Ton of BS: How Vendors Are Selling Bad Metrics"
https://cyphercon.com/portfolio/metric-ton-of-bs-how-vendors-are-selling-you-bad-metrics/
It's gratifying to see my insights about the #techEconomy—especially #ITlayoffs in #cybersecurity and #softwareDevelopment partly driven by the current #AI hype cycle—amplified by peers & media.
"AI can't support what it doesn't know," says James Stanger, the chief technology evangelist at CompTIA, a nonprofit trade association for the US IT industry…"If you've got toxic companies that are interested in that binge-and-purge, on-and-off hiring of developers, I'm not sure they're going to create very good products." (Hoover)
It supports my own #codingAI #metrics that show a human solving a problem the AI never completed even with 400% more time & expert prompting. Confirmation bias? Possibly. Feeling seen & heard? You bet!

The opening sentence of this: "one of the most popular academic social networking sites is [ResearchGate]"
This may be factually correct but it really doesn't feel like it anymore. I always felt that RG was, frankly, $hit, but accepted that it appeared popular among scholars. But today? I rarely come across it.

OKRs identify the targets we're aiming for when it's too uncertain to precisely forecast, but we still need to give ourselves a progress or success measure to aim for.
The question I ask when creating Key Results is: "What empirically-measurable impact would be truly incredible to achieve, if everything goes right?" and "How will we know -- objectively -- that we're making progress toward our objective?"
