it-crowd-moss-fire-email-404 - Draftpunkt
At the beginning of millennium IT field wasn't as popular as it is in our time. Majority of population didn't have their own computers and being familiar with technologies used to be considered as something special. At that time individuals who work in IT had wide theory knowledge and most of them studied computer science in university. Required skills weren't so specific. Companies had a demand to make their system work and hire those who can provide such service. Due to lack of powerful machines and technologies itself systems were quite unreliable and it was a common thing to have unpredictable failures. People didn't believe in anything that's not written on paper. 

Since 2006 internet became a useful tool for programmers and the rest of IT world. Many tech communities were formed and it has been provided communication inside the field. Companies could better analyze the market and requirements for employees were set up in more specific way. 

Starting from 2010 depiction of IT specialist represented a person with experience that familiar with theory and at least some trends in tech. Still coders and system administrators were expected to be nerds and nobody expected them to be good in communication skills. 

The IT world renewed its police in about 2015 when all that comes to technologies turned into cool thing to do and internet was filled with different tech schools and advertisement related to having a job growing field. While all services have started transition in online form, competition was increasing even faster. In consequence we can see changes on market and higher number of people for a place. 

In 2018 it's no longer a case to have some experience and being able to create a website. Enterprises hire looking on github portfolio rather than empty words in CV.

Looking at contrast between bad and good design is useful for designers. Following common practices is not always a cure to avoid unfriendly interface. Let’s look on the example of trendy practice and how to prevent inappropriate usage. Bad Example of Animation While interactive style is an ultimate tool for making web page more appealing it’s also can become noticeable and annoying. When it comes to creating nice pop up window, first priority should be its functionality. Greatest example of over stepping the bounds is Vladyslav Tyzun’s animation concept for a PayPal email receipt, published on Dribbble. It looks tidy and minimalistic. As for a designer it just feels good to enjoy the animation. This solution is, however, superfluous. To get all transaction information user needs to wait 3.5 seconds. Alternative solution could be some simple drop-down receipt. Good Example of Animation Animated solution can be great-looking with elaborate approach Let’s consider Stripe ...

Make yourself look good online 1. Take advantage of your anonymity Communication online leaves an opportunity to be anonymous and you should take an advantage of it. People are tired of watching themselves behaving according to society standards. Going online makes it easier to live your life and share the exact thoughts and experience that close to your heart.

The Review of Paper "Computer vision in Security" Author: Fothul Karim Forhan The paper is the overview on a technology that helps us recognize different patterns and proceed it in a specific format. The focus is set on security field where CV helps to prevent attacks and massive resource looses. The introduction covers a bit of history as well as points to goals of the research. The main part is divided into: Types of CV technologies applied in security matters, security matters that require CV and other safety matters. For me the most fascinating part is CV in financial field. In the given example cv could identify fraudsters by emotional state, the way a fraudster behaves. After the thief is identified, the alarm is enabled automatically and the transaction is terminated. This is a direct example of how cv saves a companies' money. The only thing that missing is lack of illustrations. It'd be great to see face-recognition algorithms visualization. Overall...
