    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for managing interaction between users in a social network. One method includes receiving one or more first user interactions made by a user account in a social network system with content presented in a user interface on a display device. The content is associated with a first entity account in the social network system. The first user interactions include one or more endorsements of the content or the first entity account. The method further includes calculating, by at least one processor, a level of endorsement of the first entity account by the user account based on the endorsements. The method further includes providing a limited level of access to the first entity account to add one or more posts to a stream of the user account in a stream user interface of the social network system based on the level of endorsement.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving samples of data over a time range from a start time to an end time, determining a mean/median of the data samples within a historic time window, and determining a mean/median of the data samples within a recent time window. The method also includes determining a data sample delta based on a difference between the mean/median of the data samples within the recent time window and the mean/median of the data samples within the historic time window. The method also includes determining whether the data sample delta exceeds a delta tolerance, and when the data sample delta exceeds the delta tolerance, determining a regression in performance. The method also includes transmitting a regression alert to a user device. The user device is configured to notify a user associated with the user device of the regression in performance.

    Abstract: An electronic device may include a printed circuit board (PCB) including at least one electronic component, and an electrically conductive enclosure surrounding the at least one electronic component to provide electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding for the at least one component. The electrically conductive enclosure may include a frame, made of a resilient, electrically conductive material, on a mounting surface of the PCB, surrounding the at least one component, and an electrically conductive shielding cover extending across an open top area defined by the frame. The frame may be attached to the PCB and the cover by an electrically conductive material to provide for electrical continuity. The frame may be made of a resilient, electrically conductive material so that the frame may compress in response to an externally applied force, and may return to an original, non-compressed form upon removal of the externally applied force.

    Abstract: A method includes, for each of a plurality of web resources, receiving, at a communications server, data indicating characteristics of a respective web resource, detecting, based on the received data, that the respective web resource provides functionality for live assistance by a third party content provider through a chat user interface on the respective web resource, and storing, in a database, an entry that indicates that the respective web resource has the functionality. The method includes receiving, from a user, a request to access a particular web resource hosted by a particular third party content provider, determining, based on a stored entry in the database representing the particular web resource, that the web resource provides functionality for live assistance by the particular third party content provider through a particular chat user interface on the web resource, and initiating a chat session between the user and the third party content provider.
