Hi, my name is Bruno, and here are some talks/events that I had participated in. Yes, site is “aliased” e.com since, you know, the domain. If you don’t get it, then the reference is probably not for you anyway. Oh yes, and some of the posts are copied from the stone age, JFTR.
At the end of 1992, the Croatian Open Systems Users’ Group (HrOpen) was founded. Since 2001, the association has been called the Croatian Society for Open Systems and Internet.
HrOpen is a self-financing, non-profit association established following the example of similar European national associations. From 1993 to 1998, HrOpen was a full member of the European Forum for Open Systems (EurOpen), and since June 2010, it has been a member of OpenForum Europe, headquartered in Brussels.
Rapporteur for CYBER; CRA; Essential cybersecurity requirements for routers, modems intended for the connection to the internet, and switches. This document will provide security requirements and assessment criteria covering all elements defined in CRA Annex I Part 1 and Part 2 for routers, modems intended for the connection to the internet, and switches, excluding such equipment used in the industrial OT domain, as mentioned in CRA Annex III Class I important products.
This work item intends to produce an EN as candidate for harmonization, under the standardization request in support of the implementation of the CRA (M/606). It will be a multipart standard, accommodating multiple product variants across market segments.

The NetDev Society has been established for the purpose of advancing the Linux networking user and kernel open source software by, among other things, providing a forum for collaboration through conferences and other activities. It is operated by volunteer netdev community members. It is not a trade association. Our goal is to serve the netdev community.

I presented Large Language Models (LLMs) through the prism of easily understandable math, since everything is based on it. Also, I showcased which interesting things pop up in this segment. Finally, he will tell us how to run and use local LLMs through FLOSS tools.
I demonstrated hands-on access to local LLM’s on an average computer utilizing open source technologies such as Ollama, Open WebUI and similar technologies, demonstrating native function calling, local RAG integration, web search for RAG’s and similar features.
