#Procedure documentation software

[unpretty]

NGL I sometimes worry I'm going to become the type of person you're talking about with software migration. I'm employed by a city in their local Museum and am thus a historian by trade, not usually something that has to deal with numbers and accounting. But, due to a series of unfortunate events that would take too long to explain, I have inherited the responsibility of not only dealing with the Museum's day to day finances (entering receipts, making sure POs get signed, tracking down receipts for gas purchases, etc.,) but also updating the Museum's portion of the city website. I dont know if I'm doing any of this right but it's getting done 😂😂

if you're aware your shit's fucked and you're documenting you're honestly fine. if we had a standard operating procedure document detailing the rote memorization process we could have just passed it along at the start and it would have made things clearer for the poor trainer. instead this person refuses to document because they think that will give them job security. this process exists entirely in their head. the trainer had no way of knowing the reality of the situation because they insisted on feigning competence until it was too late.

[pneumaticpresence]

my biggest stressors right now are documents. the paperwork that I am paid to do, my personal noncompliance with administrative law, my "concerning" drawer full of unsorted (and mostly unopened) mail.

making sure I have the right documents. extracting dry hard facts (mostly numerical) from documents and putting them into other documents or software. following the proper procedures. I can never remember the proper procedures so it takes a very unpleasant kind of concentration to refer back. I have to take my mind off the grooves it wants to be on. (not that I'm special: how many minds really want to be on these? well, a fair amount of clerical workers', I guess...) talking to clients, writing emails, consulting with coworkers: I don't always love these tasks, but they don't take it off the grooves so violently.

I'm being stubborn, stupid, and a little crazy. I can be very efficient at paperwork. there are just so many other things I'd rather direct my energy towards. and yet this executive dysfunction burns up so much for no reason. I'm afraid it's either self-sabotage or a way of communicating something to others (and myself, who continues to say yes to things that don't suit me?). surely there are better ways.

if I stress myself out over these mindless problems, I am distracted from attending to the ones I really care about. if I really care about them, why am I turning minor distractions into huge obstacles?

I need to go to the BMV (and accept whatever fines I've accrued), file my taxes, do the work tasks I hate, figure out my finances, schedule overdue doctor appointments. these are the bugbears looming over me. ridiculous!!

[moose-mousse]

Software Engineer, huh? Impressive. Any advice?

Uhhhhhh. All systems engineers deal with is ultimately measured against people. Systems for people to use. That is what engineers does. So learn how to test for, use, control and manage people. Like variables in any other system. How will people read your code? What do you want them to do with the info you are writing? How will people use the GUI? Why? And how does this allow us to make a better GUI? How will people refactor this system when I leave the documentation like this? How will people interact with the delays of this system? How will people walk in this hallway? How will people see the sign? How will the engineers in this project work on things? How will we ensure people actually does the procedure correctly? Every single problem an engineer of any kind solves is deep down "How will people do people things with this system?"

Yet for some reason, many engineers considers this unimportant... Those are the bad engineers.

[askagamedev]

In your answer about technical designers, you remarked that technical artists are "special unicorns" - what sorts of things give them that status, and what does it mean for a technical artist's career? Are there any other jobs in game dev you feel fall into the "special unicorn" category?

"Special unicorn" roles are generally similar in how difficult it is to find them combined with how useful they are to a dev team. Besides Technical Artist, there's also console architecture experts and Houdini VFX experts. While this list is by no means exhaustive, all three of these roles are in fields that are both difficult to master and extremely useful in most game dev teams.

Technical artists are the rare combination of being both technically minded and artistically minded at the same time. Somebody who is able to perform in both arenas at a professional level is rare, but the needs for people with those skills are enormous. Being able to build out and improve the tools and technology for other artists to create high quality visuals is in high demand because just about every team needs one.

A software engineer that specializes in game console architecture, for example, is incredibly useful to have on a team - every game on that platform will need optimization and having an expert direct those initiatives makes a big difference. However, game console architecture is both difficult to learn, lacks much public-facing documentation and material, and a constantly-moving target as firmware updates and such come. This also makes console architecture experts a "special unicorn" role.

Good-looking VFX are needed in most games. Doing really good VFX generally involves a good understanding of procedural generation and simulation. Many in the industry use Houdini to create the sort of VFX shots you see in TV, movies, and video games. However, Houdini is both incredibly powerful and difficult to master. Thus they also meet the criteria for "special unicorn".

How Do Criminal Defense Attorneys Handle Search and Seizure Issues?

When you’re facing criminal charges, understanding your rights is essential. Search and seizure laws play a critical role in protecting people from unlawful actions by law enforcement. If these laws are in question in your case, an experienced criminal defense attorney can help ensure your rights are upheld.

Understanding the Fourth Amendment

The Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures. Law enforcement officers must have a valid warrant or probable cause to conduct a search. If they operate outside these boundaries, any evidence collected could be ruled inadmissible in court, thanks to the "exclusionary rule."

This means that if the police violated your Fourth Amendment rights, the evidence obtained through their unlawful actions may not be used against you.

How Criminal Defense Attorneys Address Search and Seizure Issues

Criminal defense attorneys are vital in challenging unlawful searches and ensuring your rights are protected. Here’s how they typically handle these situations:

Thorough Investigation: Attorneys examine the circumstances surrounding the search, including police reports, witness statements, and evidence collection methods. This helps identify whether law enforcement violated proper procedures.

Identifying Unlawful Searches: Defense attorneys carefully review whether the police had the required warrant, probable cause, or followed legal procedures. If not, they can argue that the search was illegal.

Challenging Evidence: Attorneys can file a motion to suppress evidence obtained from an unlawful search. If the court agrees, this evidence cannot be used in the case, potentially weakening the prosecution’s argument.

Advocating for You: Throughout the legal process, your attorney ensures your rights are upheld, offering guidance and representation in court.

What to Do if You Believe Your Rights Were Violated

If you suspect law enforcement conducted an unlawful search, here’s what you can do to protect yourself:

Document the Incident: Write down everything you remember about the search, including the officers involved, what was said, and any actions they took.

Contact a Criminal Defense Attorney: Seek legal advice immediately. An experienced attorney can review your case and advise you on the next steps.

Consider Filing a Complaint: If you believe law enforcement acted improperly, you may file a complaint with the appropriate agency. This could lead to an investigation into their conduct.

Navigating Modern Search and Seizure Challenges

With advancements in technology, new issues have emerged around privacy and search laws. Tools like facial recognition software, digital surveillance, and cell phone tracking have raised questions about government overreach. A knowledgeable attorney can help you understand how these evolving issues may affect your case.

Legislative Reforms and Your Rights

Laws surrounding search and seizure are constantly evolving at both state and federal levels. Changes often aim to strengthen privacy protections and establish stricter rules for law enforcement. Staying informed about these developments—and having an attorney who understands them—is crucial to defending your rights.

Navigating the complexities of search and seizure laws can be overwhelming. Having an experienced criminal defense attorney in your corner ensures that your rights are safeguarded and that law enforcement is held accountable for any misconduct.

If you believe your Fourth Amendment rights have been violated, don’t hesitate to seek legal guidance. A skilled attorney can help you challenge evidence, build your defense, and protect your future.

AITHEMIS: A New Way Of Enhancing Legal Practice in “AI” Way

Is AI a legal threat or a helpful tool? Is it replacing or altering the work of lawyers? You might be surprised by the response.

AI is now a quiet participant in the dance of existence. After initially being reluctant to take the initiative, it now easily guides us through its complexity. It helps us with things we used to think people could only do.

It can change the legal sector, including law firms, in-house attorneys, legal operations, and law schools.

AI is a potent instrument in the legal field that enhances rather than replaces human skill. It increases productivity and offers instant access to large databases, a document visualizer, and a case summarizer, which can help contract review in a few minutes.

But a human touch is still necessary for creativity, nuance, and comprehension of human settings. We should consider AI a friend rather than an adversary attempting to supplant humanity. Many of our problems can be solved by AI as a collaborator, which includes:

Review and Analysis of Documents Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies save time in case law research, contract analysis, and due diligence by quickly scanning hundreds of legal documents and finding relevant information.

Predictive analytics AI can predict legal outcomes by examining past cases. This allows lawyers to make better arguments and advise clients, enhancing strategy and decision- making.

Legal Studies AI tools that efficiently scan legal literature and rulings expedite research, and lawyers can focus. These technologies allow them to retrieve relevant content and concentrate on more crucial tasks quickly.

Contract Management AI-assisted contract management solutions reduce turnaround time and legal problems by accurately drafting, reviewing, and managing contracts while identifying risks and guaranteeing regulatory compliance.

Client Communication & Chatbots AI-driven chatbots respond to client questions and offer updates, enhancing client involvement and freeing legal professionals to focus on intricate case details. Therefore, AI is more likely to assist legal teams in keeping more work in-house than replacing positions. As a result, these teams can more carefully choose which tasks to outsource.

In other words, AI can free experts to concentrate on more creative and intellectually stimulating work — the kind of work that first attracted them to the legal field. One of the most significant effects of AI on the legal sector will probably be these procedures, which can benefit law firms or internal legal departments, as well as the clients and businesses they assist.

AI is having a truly remarkable and revolutionary impact on the legal industry. Law Firm AI Software and AI Case Management System tools are just two examples of how technology may modernize law businesses, promote growth, and enhance client services — it’s not just about automating work.

It is essential to have a reliable tool. The AI they employ must produce accurate and legally binding records, be based on trustworthy legal sources, and indicate where its data originates.

These are the few things to Take Into Account When Collaborating with a Trustworthy AI:

Does the AI platform for legal case summaries work well with your workflow, and is it compatible with your current legal applications?

Does it have the capability to meet legal demands, such as automated case management software?

Does the user interface guarantee that legal professionals can easily use it?

Does the supplier protect sensitive legal data by adhering to strict security and privacy standards?

Can AI be expanded to meet upcoming legal issues and technological advancements?

These factors must be considered when choosing AI for legal work. The quick adoption of AI to automate legal documents evidences a notable trend toward more precise and effective legal processes. In a time when time is of the essence, and legal difficulties are becoming more widespread, people who use and adapt to AI have a better chance of success.

The future of law is not about humans vs. AI but rather about how we can employ both to improve client service and build a more accessible and effective legal system.

With Aithemis, incorporating AI into law is not merely a trend but a revolution in law practice in the twenty-first century.

Ready-Made Banks: A Fast-Track Solution for Financial Entrepreneurs

In the ever-evolving financial sector, setting up a new bank from scratch can be a complex, time-consuming, and heavily regulated process. This is where ready made banks offer a strategic advantage. Acquiring a pre-established banking institution with the necessary licenses in place allows financial entrepreneurs to bypass lengthy approval procedures and start operations quickly. In this article, we explore the benefits, processes, and considerations of purchasing a ready-made bank.

What Are Ready-Made Banks?

Ready-made banks, also known as shelf banks, are pre-licensed financial institutions that are available for sale. These banks have already been incorporated, undergone regulatory approvals, and in some cases, have an operational history. Investors and financial service providers can acquire these institutions to accelerate their entry into the banking industry.

Benefits of Acquiring a Ready-Made Bank

Regulatory Compliance – Ready-made banks typically already comply with financial regulations and have obtained the necessary banking licenses. This reduces the burden of going through rigorous application procedures.

Established Reputation – A bank with an operational history may already have established relationships with regulatory bodies, financial institutions, and clients, providing an easier path to business development.

Access to Banking Infrastructure – Many ready-made banks come with existing banking infrastructure, including financial software, payment processing systems, and client portfolios, enabling seamless transitions.

Global Business Expansion – Investors looking to expand their financial services globally can benefit from acquiring a licensed bank in a strategic jurisdiction.

Considerations Before Buying a Ready-Made Bank

Jurisdiction & Regulations – Different countries have varying regulatory requirements. Buyers should assess the jurisdiction to ensure it aligns with their business goals and legal considerations.

Due Diligence – Conducting thorough due diligence is essential to verify the financial health, compliance status, and potential liabilities of the bank before purchase.

Operational Readiness – Some ready-made banks may be dormant or inactive. Investors should evaluate the bank’s readiness for immediate operations.

Cost Factors – Acquiring a ready-made bank involves substantial investment. Buyers should consider initial costs, operational expenses, and any additional licensing or compliance fees.

Regulatory Approvals for Ownership Transfer – Although a ready-made bank is pre-licensed, regulatory authorities often require approvals for changes in ownership, which should be factored into the timeline.

How to Acquire a Ready-Made Bank

Identify the Right Bank – Research available banks for sale in preferred jurisdictions that match your business objectives.

Engage Financial and Legal Experts – Work with professionals who specialize in banking acquisitions to navigate legal and regulatory complexities.

Due Diligence & Negotiation – Assess the bank’s history, financials, and compliance status before finalizing the purchase.

Regulatory Approval Process – Submit necessary documentation and seek regulatory consent for ownership transfer.

Operational Launch – Once approvals are secured, the new owners can rebrand, implement business strategies, and commence full-scale operations.

Conclusion

Acquiring a ready-made bank is a strategic move for financial entrepreneurs looking to enter the banking industry swiftly. With pre-existing licenses, compliance frameworks, and operational structures, these institutions offer a fast-track solution to financial success. However, due diligence, regulatory compliance, and strategic planning are crucial to ensuring a smooth transition and sustainable operations. Whether for global expansion or niche financial services, a ready-made bank provides a unique opportunity to accelerate growth in the financial sector.

Essential Predictive Analytics Techniques 

With the growing usage of big data analytics, predictive analytics uses a broad and highly diverse array of approaches to assist enterprises in forecasting outcomes. Examples of predictive analytics include deep learning, neural networks, machine learning, text analysis, and artificial intelligence. 

Predictive analytics trends of today reflect existing Big Data trends. There needs to be more distinction between the software tools utilized in predictive analytics and big data analytics solutions. In summary, big data and predictive analytics technologies are closely linked, if not identical. 

Predictive analytics approaches are used to evaluate a person's creditworthiness, rework marketing strategies, predict the contents of text documents, forecast weather, and create safe self-driving cars with varying degrees of success. 

Predictive Analytics- Meaning 

By evaluating collected data, predictive analytics is the discipline of forecasting future trends. Organizations can modify their marketing and operational strategies to serve better by gaining knowledge of historical trends. In addition to the functional enhancements, businesses benefit in crucial areas like inventory control and fraud detection. 

Machine learning and predictive analytics are closely related. Regardless of the precise method, a company may use, the overall procedure starts with an algorithm that learns through access to a known result (such as a customer purchase). 

The training algorithms use the data to learn how to forecast outcomes, eventually creating a model that is ready for use and can take additional input variables, like the day and the weather. 

Employing predictive analytics significantly increases an organization's productivity, profitability, and flexibility. Let us look at the techniques used in predictive analytics. 

Techniques of Predictive Analytics 

Making predictions based on existing and past data patterns requires using several statistical approaches, data mining, modeling, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. Machine learning techniques, including classification models, regression models, and neural networks, are used to make these predictions. 

Data Mining 

To find anomalies, trends, and correlations in massive datasets, data mining is a technique that combines statistics with machine learning. Businesses can use this method to transform raw data into business intelligence, including current data insights and forecasts that help decision-making. 

Data mining is sifting through redundant, noisy, unstructured data to find patterns that reveal insightful information. A form of data mining methodology called exploratory data analysis (EDA) includes examining datasets to identify and summarize their fundamental properties, frequently using visual techniques. 

EDA focuses on objectively probing the facts without any expectations; it does not entail hypothesis testing or the deliberate search for a solution. On the other hand, traditional data mining focuses on extracting insights from the data or addressing a specific business problem. 

Data Warehousing  

Most extensive data mining projects start with data warehousing. An example of a data management system is a data warehouse created to facilitate and assist business intelligence initiatives. This is accomplished by centralizing and combining several data sources, including transactional data from POS (point of sale) systems and application log files. 

A data warehouse typically includes a relational database for storing and retrieving data, an ETL (Extract, Transfer, Load) pipeline for preparing the data for analysis, statistical analysis tools, and client analysis tools for presenting the data to clients. 

Clustering 

One of the most often used data mining techniques is clustering, which divides a massive dataset into smaller subsets by categorizing objects based on their similarity into groups. 

When consumers are grouped together based on shared purchasing patterns or lifetime value, customer segments are created, allowing the company to scale up targeted marketing campaigns. 

Hard clustering entails the categorization of data points directly. Instead of assigning a data point to a cluster, soft clustering gives it a likelihood that it belongs in one or more clusters. 

Classification  

A prediction approach called classification involves estimating the likelihood that a given item falls into a particular category. A multiclass classification problem has more than two classes, unlike a binary classification problem, which only has two types. 

Classification models produce a serial number, usually called confidence, that reflects the likelihood that an observation belongs to a specific class. The class with the highest probability can represent a predicted probability as a class label. 

Spam filters, which categorize incoming emails as "spam" or "not spam" based on predetermined criteria, and fraud detection algorithms, which highlight suspicious transactions, are the most prevalent examples of categorization in a business use case. 

Regression Model 

When a company needs to forecast a numerical number, such as how long a potential customer will wait to cancel an airline reservation or how much money they will spend on auto payments over time, they can use a regression method. 

For instance, linear regression is a popular regression technique that searches for a correlation between two variables. Regression algorithms of this type look for patterns that foretell correlations between variables, such as the association between consumer spending and the amount of time spent browsing an online store. 

Neural Networks   

Neural networks are data processing methods with biological influences that use historical and present data to forecast future values. They can uncover intricate relationships buried in the data because of their design, which mimics the brain's mechanisms for pattern recognition. 

They have several layers that take input (input layer), calculate predictions (hidden layer), and provide output (output layer) in the form of a single prediction. They are frequently used for applications like image recognition and patient diagnostics. 

Decision Trees  

A decision tree is a graphic diagram that looks like an upside-down tree. Starting at the "roots," one walks through a continuously narrowing range of alternatives, each illustrating a possible decision conclusion. Decision trees may handle various categorization issues, but they can resolve many more complicated issues when used with predictive analytics. 

An airline, for instance, would be interested in learning the optimal time to travel to a new location it intends to serve weekly. Along with knowing what pricing to charge for such a flight, it might also want to know which client groups to cater to. The airline can utilize a decision tree to acquire insight into the effects of selling tickets to destination x at price point y while focusing on audience z, given these criteria. 

Logistics Regression 

It is used when determining the likelihood of success in terms of Yes or No, Success or Failure. We can utilize this model when the dependent variable has a binary (Yes/No) nature. 

Since it uses a non-linear log to predict the odds ratio, it may handle multiple relationships without requiring a linear link between the variables, unlike a linear model. Large sample sizes are also necessary to predict future results. 

Ordinal logistic regression is used when the dependent variable's value is ordinal, and multinomial logistic regression is used when the dependent variable's value is multiclass. 

Time Series Model 

Based on past data, time series are used to forecast the future behavior of variables. Typically, a stochastic process called Y(t), which denotes a series of random variables, are used to model these models. 

A time series might have the frequency of annual (annual budgets), quarterly (sales), monthly (expenses), or daily (daily expenses) (Stock Prices). It is referred to as univariate time series forecasting if you utilize the time series' past values to predict future discounts. It is also referred to as multivariate time series forecasting if you include exogenous variables. 

The most popular time series model that can be created in Python is called ARIMA, or Auto Regressive Integrated Moving Average, to anticipate future results. It's a forecasting technique based on the straightforward notion that data from time series' initial values provides valuable information.  

In Conclusion- 

Although predictive analytics techniques have had their fair share of critiques, including the claim that computers or algorithms cannot foretell the future, predictive analytics is now extensively employed in virtually every industry. As we gather more and more data, we can anticipate future outcomes with a certain level of accuracy. This makes it possible for institutions and enterprises to make wise judgments.  

Implementing Predictive Analytics is essential for anybody searching for company growth with data analytics services since it has several use cases in every conceivable industry. Contact us at SG Analytics if you want to take full advantage of predictive analytics for your business growth.
