If you run a car dealership or a rental service, you may not be a big fan of car sharing. But it's a trend that's coming on fast, and it's being described as a "disruptive" technology--because it's likely to change some things we all take for granted. Such as parking in cities, as this blog suggests.
But for developers and would-be urbanites looking for hip, eco-friendly housing in the city of the future, the ability to get rid of a lot of parking spaces means that structures can be built more affordably, because more space can be devoted to living, and less to parking a personal automobile.
Along with car sharing, the rise of autonomous vehicles seems to be on track--driven in large part by the Millennial generation, who would rather text and play games than drive a vehicle. All of these trends are converging, as a study published by Deloitte University Press (pdf) notes, in ways that are likely to change not only how we get around, but how our cities and homes are built.
For more on the future of the sharing economy and transportation, see the Celestia Project, our year-long look at the possibilities of an ecologically balanced life by the year 2100.

Nightly Minimums
We have a two night minimum stay on weekends, three nights on holiday weekends. A single Sunday night may be available. Friday night only stays are acceptable if paid for at the time of booking and non-refundable. We have a single person discount Monday through Thursday nights except holidays.
Taxes & Service Charge
All reservations incur a 10% service charge and 7 3/4% sales tax plus 3% occupancy tax. Please calculate accordingly when budgeting your stay.
Why the Service Charge?
According to New York State tax law, a service charge or gratuity cannot be taxed. We could just have priced our rates including this portion, but then the customer would be paying tax on that portion as well. This is our way of saving our customers from paying even more taxes. For a statement direct from the NYS Tax & Finance bureau, please see this link.
Bookings 3 or More Months in Advance, and Prepayment Options
When reservations are booked three months or more in advance, we require a non-refundable deposit of one night or 1/3 (whichever is greater) at time of booking. We take a credit card guarantee, but any room totals paid in full 2 weeks in advance with a check will receive a free gift.
House Policies:
No smoking in the house, but outdoors is just fine. We accept pets but only in one of our rooms that is reserved for that express purpose. All fireplaces in rooms are working wood-burning fireplaces meant for ambiance only; contemporary heating system throughout house.
Cancellation Policy:
For reservations booked less than three months in advance, we have a fourteen day cancellation policy. This means that if you cancel more than fourteen days before you are due to arrive, you have no financial penalty. Should you have to cancel less than fourteen days before arrival, you will forfeit the equivalent of one night at the inn in each room you've booked. Should you fail to cancel and not appear here, you would forfeit the entire stay. Cancellations must be received and acknowledged by a staff member. Do not cancel via email or by leaving a message on the answering machine. You will be given a cancellation number as confirmation of cancellation.
West Point Graduation Special Non-Refundable Deposit & Cancellation Policy:
1/3 of stay or one night, whichever is greater, non-refundable deposit due at time of reservation. If booked before January 1 of the graduation ceremony year, another 1/3 or one night's stay will be charged as a non-refundable payment on that day. Balance due at check-in. 10 day cancellation policy still applies for last 1/3 or one night, whichever is greater.
Gift Certificates
Gift certificates can be purchased for a specific dollar amount or particular amount of nights in one specific room. When choosing your amount, please take into consideration when your giftee might use the certificate. Certificates past their expiration date are not extended.

Minnie, it's a great site. New Products is a good link. I noticed they changed the name from Crafter's Coast to Coast... to That's Clever. As if the name of the show was the problem LOL. Sheesh. They're so busy being clever with the camera that the viewer can't see the craft being demonstrated. |
I can't stand that show. When it comes on I turn the channel . So annoying!! |

SAFECO Field
Attendance: 29,230
Seattle, WA (Sports Network) - Joe Saunders allowed one run in six solid innings, and the Los Angeles Angels opened a three-game set with the Seattle Mariners with a dominating 7-1 win at Safeco Field.
Saunders (4-6) scattered eight hits and two walks while fanning just one for the Angels, who are above .500 (29-28) for the first time since being 12-11 on April 28. Saunders also continued his domination of the Mariners, improving to 8-1 in 13 lifetime starts against Seattle.
"(I was) a little spotty there first couple innings, left some balls up," Saunders said. "They found some holes on me. It seemed like when I located, they were putting it on the ground, and we were fortunate enough to turn some double plays."
Hideki Matsui hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs in a 3-for-3 effort, while Howie Kendrick knocked in a pair of runs in the win for Los Angeles, which is 4-1 on a season-long 14-game road trip.
Ichiro Suzuki had three of the Mariners' nine hits and drove in the lone run, as Seattle's three-game win streak came to a screeching halt. Ian Snell (0-4) allowed four runs -- three earned -- on three hits and four walks in 5 1/3 innings in defeat.
Matsui gave the Angels a 2-0 lead in the second with his eighth home run of the season, and Los Angeles added two more runs in the third.
"He's a good hitter, so you can't expect to get him out every time," Snell said of Matsui, who has hit three homers off the righty. "He owns me, I can't say nothing else. He's a good hitter and he owns me. I'm trying to figure out a way to get him out."
Erick Aybar reached on a bunt single, and Maicer Izturis drew a walk. Kendrick put down a sacrifice bunt that advanced both runners, and Bobby Abreu walked to load the bases with one out.
Torii Hunter followed with a sacrifice fly, advancing Izturis to third, and Matsui's infield single plated Izturis for a 4-0 advantage.
The Mariners finally got on the board on Suzuki's RBI single in the fifth, but Juan Rivera restored the Angels' four-run lead with a homer leading off the seventh.
Kendrick added a two-run double off Chad Cordero later in the seventh to account for the final margin.

A slight decrease in same-store sales dragged down profits at 410-unit Noodles & Company for the second quarter ended July 1.
Revenue at the Broomfield, Colo.-based fast-casual operator rose 11.5 percent, to $99.5 million, from $89.2 million in the same quarter last year. Profits declined to $3.7 million, from $4 million the previous year.
Kevin Reddy, chairman and chief executive officer of Noodles & Company, expressed disappointment in the chain's results, but said his team had "made significant progress with regard to long-term investments in key initiatives, including catering and local relationship marketing. Our team's efforts and initiatives are resonating with guests, resulting in a solid finish to the second quarter and a positive start to the third quarter, as our comparable restaurants sales have increased to 1.3 percent quarter to date."
The company opened 16 new restaurants during the quarter, 12 of which are corporate units and four of which are franchised.
Result: $3.7 million, or 12 cents per share% Decrease: 7.5% (from $4 million, or 13 cents per share)

I'm married to ShooterGranny and if I hadn't joined she would probably kick me out of the house. Actually, the only way I could view the neat photos that I wanted to see on the old airplane post was to join, so that's part of the reason too.
After 22 1/2 years shooting or dropping every kind of ordinance imaginable from various jets it was quite different learning to use a firearm that I can hold in two hands! Despite rumors to the contrary the USMC never really taught me how to shoot a handgun, even though I had the medals to prove I was an expert with pistol and rifle. I hope the USMC is doing more combat handgun training now. Fortunately, I learned more in one week at the old Chapman Academy than in all my years in the Corps.
From being "King of The Sky" to various jobs around the world I graduated to "ground school", with my last several jobs being at various local golf courses doing grounds maintenance. (Free golf too!) Then Granny made me really retire.
Now all I do is shoot and bellyache...............when I'm not taking naps...............
BTW - Thanks to all of you for your thoughts and prayers during my hospital stay a couple weeks ago.

"I loved these bachelorette party invites! I chose a customized color to match my bridesmaid color and it turned out great!"
"I ordered these because of the design and that they are postcards. I was able to write personal messages to each of the girls we are inviting and it's great not to deal with envelopes. Wedding paper divas shipped the cards quickly and I can't wait to drop them in the mail!"
"I liked the preview so much, I didn't change a thing when ordering cards for my best friend's Bachelorette. Everyone thought it was a fun card with out going over the top. Loved it so much we are using WPD for our save-the-date for our wedding!"
"It was very easy to design the invite just the way I wanted. The fonts that were offered were wonderful and fit my style and need. My guests loved the invites and thought it fit the personality of the Bride."
"Everyone loved the cards, I punched two holes at the top and tied a poem on with some ribbon. I did think it was going to be a little glossy, it was more of a dull black. It didn't really matter though, it was overall cute!"

I live in South Jersey, and can't grow a lawn. I have so many tunnels from moles and voles (yes, I have both somewhere. My cats bring me them sometimes). I don't want to use poison, if possible, but will if I have to. Does anyone have an idea on how to get rid of these pests? I've heard that if you eliminate the white grubs, then they'll leave. If so, how do you get rid of them? Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! |

I can tell you from trying to rid my yard of grubs, and therefore, armadillos, that this is a very tall order. First, the poison is quite expensive, and second, it only last 8 to 10 weeks and then you have to do it again. If I were you, I would call a local exterminator. |
Can't use poisons if you have an outdoor cat who hunts them. |

"It's BEAUTIFUL. The graphic is beautiful and looks nice printed (not faded, not too bold), the paper is really nice quality. It took me 2 minutes to put in my info, they set up the design and wording. So easy and fast, I really like their design interface. The card itself is very simple and elegant."
"Although this product is listed as a "Winter Girl Birth Announcement" the minty color on the back was neutral enough for us to use it as an announcement for our son. As always, the quality I've come to expect from Tiny Prints is excellent and the company outdid themselves again. I love the "Pearl" finish and add that to all the cards I've ordered from the website; it added a great little something extra to this card as well."
"Firstly, it is very easy to upload photos, and the layout was great, very ideal for busy moms like me! Second, the quality of the paper exceeded my expectation even if it is the most basic option (additional fee for the shimmer and round edge, ticket style). Third, as an added bonus, you can also get to have a nice layout at the back and put another picture, or you can opt this page to be blank. Most important of all my friends and family love it! Worth every penny!"
"The matte cards are nice and thick. The photo was printed beautifully on the matte card stock. The design is nice and clean and simple. Loved this."
"The only thing I would like to see is how it would look if you used less pictures in the preview. However, the card is beautiful, they arrived on time and were perfect for showing off our newest bundle of joy."

I think I'm less offended by the MKS EcoBoost than I am its Taurus SHO cousin -- mostly because the marketing folks at Ford's premier brand aren't trying to insist it's the reincarnation of a heralded sport sedan. As Phil and David have noted, it isn't: it's a large car (big enough, potentially, to appease the Town Car and Crown Vic crowd), albeit one packed with a stellar twin-turbocharged V-6.
I'm not necessarily convinced this D3 platform -- which is largely derived from the original Volvo S80 -- needs to die altogether. Until Ford can build a case for building a new large Lincoln from scratch, the current car could be much improved by adding weight to the steering rack and improving its feel, stiffening the suspension, and -- more than anything -- adding extra bite to the brake system.

I'm from Finland, I don't speak english very much. :)
Well, I use a yoghurt can and a piece of fluting to make body for the hat. I glued them together with hot-setting adhesive. Then I overlayed hat with velvet and made some details with ribbons and velvets. I'm sorry for my bad english, I wish that pictures will tell more than thousand words! ^^

To rock what fashion types call streetwear—think Rocawear, Billionaire Boys Club—you need that certain swagger. Its a quality that grows in cities all over the world: Hovas Brooklyn. Weezys NOLA. T.I.s ATL. But one less name-checked town not to be forgotten: Toronto, Canada.
Its a town with a lot of style, as a visit to Ransom Holding Co., one of Torontos streetwear meccas, shows. In addition to carrying Levis, Carhartt, Alife, and PRPS, Ransom designs its own slick house line of denim, shorts, and oxford-cloth shirts. That caught the attention of the guys at Adidas, who are debuting their first shoe collection with the store this Saturday. Five styles make up the first offering, from the casual high-top Dune sneaker to the rubber-soled Creek lugs, but our favorites are the tough-as-nails hiking boots, the Summits (pictured above). The shape is classic, but the details stand apart: the canvas tongue and ankle padding, the contrast-color laces, stitching, and interior. And style, as T.I. or Jay could tell you, is in the specifics. No one on the corner have swagger like us, huh?
$225, launching this weekend at Ransom Holding Co., and globally at Daves Quality Meat in New York, HUF in San Francisco, Patta in Amsterdam, and UNDFTD in Japan

My credit card breaks down my balance my rate summary: Balance Transfer; Purchases and Advances; then it charges an interest for each to calculate the total finance charges. They have a daily periodic rate, and a corresponding APR. How do they calculate the total interest?
Each total has its own APR and terms that compute interest.
ie: purchases vs cash advance.
each total has its own formula which is used each month when your statement updates.
The individual finance charges are then added to your account.
In most cases your credit card only touts the APR of purchases.
You may have a Purchase APR of 7.9% and a cash advance APR of 11.9.
For example The purchase APR gives you a 30 day grace, the cash advance starts to acrue immediately.
Depending on the mix of purchase to cash Advance you may have a real APR on the total balance of any number between the 7.9 and 13.42

mksh made quite some waves (machine translation of the third article) recently. Let's state it's not just Amigas – ara5 is a buildd running the Atari kernel, an emulated though. On the other hand, the bare-metal Ataris used to be the fastest buildds, so I expect we get them back online soonish. I'm currently fighting with some buildd software bugfixes, but once they're in, we will make more of them. Oh, and porterboxen! Does anyone want to host a VM with a porterbox? Requirements: wheezy host system (can be emulated), 1 GiB RAM, one CPU core with about 6500 BogoMIPS or more (so the emulated system has decent speed; an AMD Phenom II X4 3.2 GHz does just fine). Oh, and mksh is ported to more and more platforms, like 386BSD 0.0 with GCC 1.39, and QNX 4 with Watcom… and more bugfixes are also being worked on. And let's not forget features!
jupp got refreshed: it's got a bracketed paste mode, which is even auto-enabled on xterm-xfree86 (though the xterm(1) in MirBSD's a tad too old to know it; will update that later, just imported sendmail(8) 8.14.6 and lynx(1) 2.8.8dev.15 into base, more to come) and will be enhanced later (should disable auto-indent, wordwrap, status line updates, and possibly more), lots of new functions and bindings, now uses mkstemp(3) to create backup files race-free, and more (read the NEWS file).
In MirBSD, Benny and I just added a number of errnos, mostly for SUSv4 compliance and being able to compile more software from pkgsrc® without needing to patch. This is being tested right now (although I should probably go out and watch fireworks in less than a half-hour), together with the new imports and the bunch of small fixes we accumulate (even though most development in MirBSD is currently in mksh(1) and similar doesn't mean that all is, or worse, we were dead, which we aren't). I'll publish a new snapshot some time in January. The Grml 2012.12 also contains a pretty up-to-date MirBSD, with a boot(8/i386)loader that now ignores GUID partition table entries when deciding what to use for the 'a' slice.
If you haven't already done so, read Benjamin Mako Hill's writings!

Update: Tanguy asked
for a short English summary: it's me ranting against the rioting against
muslims and the call for more CCTV surveillance after a possible
bomb was found at the train station.
In Bonn herrscht immer noch "Bombenstimmung", wenn man z.B. auf die Webseite der Lokalzeitung schaut – von dem Amoklauf in Connecticut, über den sich im IRC gewunder wird, ist immer noch nichts zu sehen, dafür wird fleißig wider "Islamisten" gehetzt.
Ich finde das besorgniserregend, muß doch jetzt jeder Angehörige des Islams fürchten, verfolgt oder benachteiligt zu werden. Das reizt doch erst recht zum Gegenschlag, bei dem dann auch Menschen, die absolut nicht mit der hier vorherrschenden Meinung und Politik übereinstimmen, getroffen werden können.
Ich persönlich habe kein Problem mit Menschen anderen Glaubens oder anderer Weltanschauung, solange wir friedlich miteinander leben können. Ich teile eure Unzufriedenheit mit dem herrschenden Staat, der immer weitergehenden Überwachung, Unterdrückung von Leuten, die nicht dem vorherrschenden Menschenbild entsprechen (egal an welchen Kategoriën), und bitte die, die dies lesen, nochmal nachzudenken, bevor sie etwas tun, was hinterher Unschuldige trifft oder gar in "friendly fire" ausartet.
Hat eigentlich wer die in Bad Godesberg ausgegebenen Koran-Bücher sich mal angeschaut? Als ich davon las, war ich ja zugegebenermaßen neugierig, weil ich vom Koran leider eher wenig kenne, weiß aber nicht, wie neutral oder eben nicht die Übersetzung gehalten ist. Anhand dessen, was ich bereits mitbekam, sollte das eher friedlicher sein als was durch spätere Theologen festgelegt wurde – wie ja auch zum Beispiel im Christentum, aber über die Horrorepisoden der christlichen Kirche will ich jetzt auch nicht mich auslassen, in der Hoffnung, daß auch diese sich mit den Jahren gebessert hat. (Ist nur halt das Problem mit den Leuten, die die "alten Hetzparolen" jetzt noch verbreiten. Ist wie im Netz mit den Groupies von Theo de Raadt, die noch asiger zu Leuten sind als er selber.) (Außerdem muß man ja befürchten, durch Besitz eines Korans schon vorverurteilt zu werden heutzutage *seufz*… ich finde das nicht gut!)
Update (ich vergaß): auch der Ruf nach mehr Videoüberwachung ist nur Panikmache. Das geht nur zu Lasten des Normalbürgers. Vielleicht lassen sich noch Kleinstdelikte wie Taschendiebstahl damit abschrecken, aber gerade diese Bomben und dergleichen sind doch oft von Leuten, die vor Konsequenzen keine Angst haben, organisiert. Die werden dann maximal Märtyrer. Ich wiederhole nochmal für die Politiker und die ganz langsamen unter den Lesern: Überwachung verhindert keine Straftat.
Update 11.01.2013: Mittlerweile hat auch Fefe was dazu.
There is one week left to submit your talk proposals for the BSD devroom at FOSDEM 2013. We still have quite a few slots open, so do not be shy! See the original announcement below:
FOSDEM 2013 will take place on February 2-3, 2013, in Brussels, Belgium. Just like in the last years, there will be both a BSD booth and a developer's room (on Sunday).
The topics of the devroom include all BSD operating systems. Every talk is welcome, from internal hacker discussion to real-world examples and presentations about new and shiny features. The talks will be 45 minutes including discussion. Feel free to ask if you want to have a longer or shorter slot.
If you want to do a talk, please submit your proposal to
bsiegert at google.com
and include the following information:
- Your name
- The title of your talk (please be descriptive, as titles will be listed with ~400 from other projects)
- A short abstract of one to two paragraphs
- A short biography introducing yourself
- Links to related websites/blogs etc.
The deadline for submissions is December 17, 2012. The talk committee, consisting of Daniel Seuffert, Marius Nünnerich and Benny Siegert, will consider the proposals. If yours has been accepted, you will be informed by e-mail within one week of the submission deadline.
Before we begin, everyone should read up on hashtables and what open addressing / closed hashing is. The context is lines 111‥190 of Python's Objects/dictobject.c as of today (so we get the line numbers straight).
(I've reworded this wlog entry a bit; I originally wrote it too late at
night for it to read coherent.) Basically, I've got an application where
I'd like to use a hashtable for a number of things – not as generic as
Python, and with focus on small footprint. I'd like to offer associative
arrays in a scripting language, where the keys are always arbitrary byte
strings excluding NUL. Also, I'd like to use the hashtable as backend for
indexed arrays, where the keys are uint32_t and the usual use
case is sequential. Finally, I'm using it for several internal tables,
such as a list of keywords, one of builtins, one of special variables,
etc. which is a reason for me to not use a self-balancing binary tree
as data structure (reading further below might suggest that, but getting
a sorted list of hashtable keys is not the focus, though not unimportant).
My questions on this are:
① Why is the shift on perturb done after its first use? In my experiments (using 32-bit width everywhere), for the pathological case of an 8-element (i = 3) table with three entries 0, 0x40000000 and 0x800000000, the "second round" yields 1 for all three, so it cannot have to do with the upper bits. My lookup looks like:
mask = 2ⁱ - 1; j = perturb = hash(key); goto find_first_slot; find_next_slot: j = (j << 2) + j + perturb + 1; perturb >>= PERTURB_SHIFT; /* FALLTHROUGH */ find_first_slot: entry = table[j & mask]; if (!match(entry)) goto find_next_empty_slot;
This means that my first check is always the bare hash (so "only do it if needed" is no reason) and, since I'm using gotos, I could just move the perturb >>= PERTURB_SHIFT; line before the line recalculating the next j to use. This seems to make more sense, even in the face of Python. (I actually looked at the Python file's comments again today because I thought to use a different resolution, but they have a good rationale for using the multiplication by 5.)
② Why can't we just use i as the PERTURB_SHIFT? Sure, this changes a shift-right by a constant, which can possibly be encoded as immediate value in assembly (unless you're on a pre-80186, which can only do SHR AX,1 and SHR AX,CL but not SHR AX,4, but that's outside of mksh's scope) into a right-shift by a variable, but i is already known, and I think the behaviour is better (it wouldn't eat any bits; assume the same 8-entry hashtable and pathologic keys 0, 8 and 16). Again: who do I think I am to go against the wisdom of the Python people, who seem to have shed more thought on this than everyone else I saw, asked, read about (including Spammipedia). That's why I'm asking here. On that reference: I don't support spammers or people nagging for donations or premium accounts, like Xing and Groundspeak/Geocaching.COM, at all. In fact, I urge others to do the same, so it really hurts them; it may be their business model, but not if they spam me. Besides, OpenCaching.DE exists.
Another thing is: to avoid CVE-2011-4815, I'm randomising the hash used, with one "seed" value per hashtable, changed before a resize operation. I originally thought to seed it with nonzero, but then I have to rehash on hashtable resize, so I'll be XORing the final hash value instead (thanks ciruZ for the idea). I'm thinking of omitting that for indexed arrays, as an attacker almost certainly cannot determine the keys there. (To directly use the indexed array keys, which are already uint32_t, as hashes makes using i from ② even more important.) The hash I'm using is a modified Jenkins one-at-a-time called NZAAT: it's my new generic standard nōn-cryptographic hash, and the changes are thus: while adding a byte, another increment of the hash is done (so NUL counts), and the finaliser got prefixed with the shift-left-add+shift-right-xor sequence of the adder (but not adding any value or the +1), to get best avalanche for all bytes. I actually compiled several versions of Hash.cs on a Windows® VM at work to analyse the original one-at-a-time and all of my modifications; these turned out to be the simplest ones (I originally had added 0x100 instead of 1, but the effect was the same, and +1 is usually cheaper on most CPUs).
Also, to avoid people being able to get to the seed, a user will always get only a sorted list of hashtable keys (numeric for indexed arrays, ASCIIbetically otherwise; see also my thoughts on JSON from the previous wlog entry). What algorithm do I use? For strings, comparisons are much more expensive, so I'd like to keep them low. Memory use is also a factor; allocating one large(r) block is better than many small ones due to the pool allocator overhead and due to portability to ancient Unicēs (which is another reason for me to use a hashtable which is a small struct plus an array of pointers, and then pass the list of keys as array of string pointers, instead of a tree). For both reasons, I'm thinking a relatively simple MergeSort: I need to allocate the result array anyway, so I can just get two and free the one that isn't the end result, and it's AFAICT the cheapest on comparisons other than Tree Sort (which nobody really seems to use, and which would effect to using a balanced binary tree again). Since keys are unique, stability and duplicate handling is never an issue. I'd like to use only one algorithm and one data structure, not a combination, as compactness is a design goal.
Please drop your thoughts on Freenode, e.g. by /msg MemoServ send mirabilos your text here or per eMail to the domains debian, freewrt or mirbsd, which are organisations, with the localpart tg. Or just contact me as usual, if you're already acquainted. Or lookup 0xE99007E0. Thanks in advance! (Especially, Python Developers' thoughts are welcome.)
The following proposal extends the JSON specification, with the idea of using JSON as an information interchange format, rather than just a way of writing certain ECMAscript values. They do not add anything but only restrict valid JSON content and encoders with some rationale.
First of, I'd like to remind everyone, including JSON's author, that JSON is case-sensitive, except in the four hexdigits after a backslash-u sequence in a String.
Second, I'd like to remind everyone that JSON is not binary-safe. No way around that, it implements Unicode (actually, 16-bit UCS-2, and it doesn't guarantee that UTF-16 surrogates are correctly paired) text. I also consider only UTF-{8,{16,32}{B,L}E} valid encodings for JSON. (No PDP endian, either. Sorry, guys.)
For my first proposal, I'd like to point out CVE-2011-4815 which was about overflowing hashtables. The obvious fix is to randomise the hash per hashtable; to ensure this doesn't leak, we sort ASCIIbetically the keys of an Object in the encoder. (Using Unicode is good here – we can just sort the keys as UTF-8 strings by their uint8_t value or as Unicode (UCS-2 or even UCS-4 or UTF-16) strings by the codepoints.) JSON was never preserving the order of elements in an Object anyway so we make it standardised (we still accept any order, and, when parsing, in collision cases, the later value wins). This also helps diffs.
For my second proposal, I'd like to forbid \u0000, \uFFFE, \uFFFF in strings. The first because many implementations use C strings, and for an information interchange format this is better; it also has security implications to allow NUL in a string. The other two, but not unpaired UTF-16 surrogates (as ECMAscript uses UCS-2 and got UTF-16 only later) because they're not valid Unicode; JSON was not binary-safe already so why bother. Among other benefits, this also helps implementations.
For my third proposal, I'd like to agree that implementations should impose a nesting depth limit that may be user-defined, and in the face of which, cyclic checking may be ignored by an encoder. I emit nesting depth overflows as literalnull; might also throw an error. Since I was asked, the common "standard" value is to restrict nesting depth is 32, unless the user specified one. (I also saw 8, but 32 WFM pretty well.) Most seem to use it even if it may seem low at first. Only specialised applications probably need more, and they can always pass a value.
For my forth proposal, backslash-escape U+007F‥U+009F always. It may upset humans, editors, databases, etc. (This paragraph is newly added, after some IRC discussion.)
All these do not permit anything that wasn't accepted to be accepted afterwards. I've got a fifth proposal which changes acceptance rules – but only for a subset of parsers: formally JSON is defined in ECMA-262 as industry standard that, in contrast to RFC 4627, always allowed any Value as top-level element of a JSON text. I'd like to make it so, and ignore the RFC's requirement for it to be an Object or Array. Even so, the first two characters (after the BOM, if any) of a JSON text always are in the non-NUL 7-bit ASCII range, allowing for encoding detection. (This is done by the NUL octet pattern in the first four octets.)
JSON has only taken off because it's a tightly defined simple format that can be used "everywhere" and isn't too awful for humans (escaping not needed for U+0020‥U+D7FF and U+E000‥U+FFFD after all, although I'd also take the C1 control characters out, see my forth proposal above). I've started to use a trailing comma in indexed and associative arrays in code I write at work, when the array values are one a line, to help version control systems to do their diffs, but refrain from asking for a JSON extension to permit that in order to not endanger compatibility any (no comment needed, it's just not worth it), but I'd like my above proposals to be followed by implementators (and I'm one of them).
Some more discussion with Jonathan pointed out that JSON5 allows for trailing commata in Object and Array; IMHO the only feature of it that is not bad or outright harmful. I'll probably keep from accepting them because, on their own, they're not that useful, and I usually would run JSON texts, even configs, through a parser/encoder roundtrip to pretty-print them which would lose them anyway.
As for binary-safeness: probably best to just use base64 and let the outer layers worry about compression. The data is usually unrelated to the JSON-encoded structure, and even if it's related to other data the base64 representation is usually similar (unless misaligned).
Update 02.12.2012 – Wrong I was about the first two characters: ""€"" is a valid JSON text. Still possible to peek at four octets and determine the encoding by ordering the tests; updated my notes.
Starting today, I am running continuous builders for Go on NetBSD/386 and NetBSD/amd64. Both are running fine, so Go is now (semi-officially) supported on NetBSD. You need at least version 5.99.51 or, even better, a NetBSD-6.0 release candidate. In addition, the latest Go release (1.0.3) does not have the NetBSD support, so you must build from source on tip.
Go 1.1, which is expected for January 2013, will support NetBSD on x86 officially.
Source Code Pro
There are a lot of monospaced fonts or "programmer's fonts" available these days. Personally, I like neither the default "sans" that is generally used in Gtk applications nor the default monospace font in Mac OS X, Menlo. Both fonts are very similar, as Menlo is based on Bitstream Vera Sans.
Now, Adobe has just released an excellent monospaced OpenType font, called Source Code Pro, as open source. The fonts can be directly downloaded from their SourceForge page.
(Of course, if you are into non-antialiased fonts, nothing beats the "fixed" font included with X.)
Packages for pkgsrc-2012Q2 are now available on ftp.NetBSD.org. They have been built for MirBSD-current on i386. This time, there is notably a much larger selection of software for X11, due to a successful build of gtk+2. All in all, there are about 6300 packages available.
There have been some interesting recent developments in MirBSD. As always, there has been development on mksh but tg@ is more qualified to write about this.
The kernel has also seen some improvements: bge(4) is now again included in the GENERIC kernel, and it supports some newer chips – for example the BCM5751 Gigabit Ethernet. This chip is the one in the machine graciously donated by Marc Balmer. The umsm(4) driver has been added, supporting certain 3G "surf sticks".
There has been a new release of jupp, joe-3_1jupp21, containing several critical fixes regarding the use of uninitialized memory. It also contains a bugfix for syntax highlighting.
In pkgsrc, have been attacking the list of broken packages breaking the highest number others. The three versions of Ruby in the tree (1.8.x, 1.9.2 and 1.9.3) now build fine, as do ilmbase, blas and a few others. Fixing blas meant introducing a weird special case in libtool: Usually, MirBSD has no Fortran compiler; however, pkgsrc has f2c, which it uses as f77, confusing libtool. It actually needed a special-case entry to treat it like gcc (which it uses internally). There is also a weird failure in policykit, where an XSLT processor segfaults during the creation of one of the manpages. Maybe it hits an ulimit, I am not sure. Anyway, these fixes are now in pkgsrc-current.
I (bsiegert@) have been interviewed by OSWorld, a Polish news site about open source software. The interview took place at FOSDEM 2012. I talk about the project, about the community and about some of the great things when using open source. Check out the video.

Apache 2, https clients linked against GnuTLS, connection errors
I've been debugging a weird problem at work – after upgrading a complex system from lenny to wheezy, some https clients failed to connect: GNU wget and Debian's version of lynx(1) which is linked against libgnutls26 fail. NSS applications continue to work, as does cURL; wget and lynx on MirBSD (linked with OpenSSL of course) work. Even Debian's gnutls-cli tools from both gnutls26 and gnutls28 work. Huh. The error_log shows renegotiation problems, yet setting the new Apache 2 configuration option to "use insecure renegotiation" doesn't help either. (The option is a total #FAIL: its only other value is "use secure TLSv1.x renegotiation", but I don't want/need SSL renegortiation at all, anyway.) Natureshadow told me this was a hot issue on Debianforum at the moment, yet, nobody had a clue or enough information to file a formal bugreport against (initially) apache2, as that's what changed. I tracked it down on a new VM with no configuration otherwise, and here are my findings so others don't run into it.
Tracking down the problem, this can be reduced to the following configuration (minimised, to show the problem) in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/1one:
<VirtualHost *:443> ServerName wiki-70.lan.tarent.de RedirectMatch permanent . https://evolvis-70.lan.tarent.de/ SSLEngine on SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/W_lan_tarent_de.cer SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/W_lan_tarent_de.key SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/godaddy.ca </VirtualHost>
Do not mind the actual content, this is a very stripped-down demo on a not-actually-set-up-yet box.
Same is valid for the companion configuration file /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/2two:
NameVirtualHost *:443 <VirtualHost *:443> ServerName evolvis-70.lan.tarent.de SSLEngine on # workaround for BEAST (CVE-2011-3389), short-term SSLCipherSuite RC4-SHA SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/W_lan_tarent_de.cer SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/W_lan_tarent_de.key SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/godaddy.ca SSLProtocol TLSv1 </VirtualHost>
Turns out the BEAST workaround was at fault here: the differing SSLCipherSuites between the vhosts (on the same Legacy IP / TCP Port tuple, as we use Wildcard SSL Certificates) made Apache 2 want to renegotiate, so either commenting it on 2two or, better, adding it to 1one helped. Interestingly enough, the SSLProtocol directive did not matter (in my tests).
So, keep SSL settings synchronised between vhosts. In fact, those were already from include files, but 2two was from the "Evolvis 5" generation, whereas we added to 1one an Include of the httpd.ssl1.inc file generated by the previous releases of EvolvisForge and had not switched those legacy vhosts to the new configuration, as everything worked on lenny.
This wlog entry brought to you by the system administrators of tarent solutions GmbH and the Evolvis Project, based on FusionForge.
Update 17.05.2013 – Absolutely do not use RC4-SHA for SSL/TLS (https)! It can leak over 200 initial plaintext bytes easily. (arc4random(3) is not affected from this, especially on MirBSD, nor arc4random(9).)
Originally posted by bubulle on Planet Debian, a shell prompt that displays the current git branch, in colour on some terminals, after the current working directory. The following snippet does similar things for mksh users, except it doesn't redefine your prompt but amend it – just throw it at the bottom of your ~/.mkshrc before that last line beginning with a colon (copy from /etc/skel/.mkshrc if you haven't done that yet):
function parse_git_branch { git branch 2>/dev/null | sed -n '/^\* \(.*\)/s//(\1)/p' } function amend_prompt_with_git { local p q='$(parse_git_branch)' r if [[ $TERM = @(xterm-color|xterm|screen*) ]]; then if [[ ${PS1:1:1} = $'\r' ]]; then p=${PS1:0:1} else p=$'\001' PS1=$p$'\r'$PS1 fi q=$p$'\e[1;33m'$p$q$p$'\e[0m'$p fi p=${PS1%%*( )[#$]*( )} if [[ $p != "$PS1" ]]; then # prompt ends with space + #-or-$ + space, we can amend r=${PS1: ${#p}} PS1=$p$q$r fi } amend_prompt_with_git unset -f amend_prompt_with_git
The indirection by use of a function is not strictly necessary but allows the use of locals. I took the liberty of adding an asterisk after "screen" to match the GNU/Linux nonsense of having TERM=screen.xterm or somesuch.

Iran Develops Software To Control Duqu Virus
Iran said on Sunday that it found a way to "control" the computer malware Duqu, which is similar to Stuxnet virus that attacked its nuclear program in 2010 and infected over 30,000 computers.
"The software to control the (Duqu) virus has been developed and made available to organizations and corporations" in Iran, head of civil defense Brigadier General Gholamreza Jalali told the official IRNA news agency.
"The elimination (process) was carried out and the organizations penetrated by the virus are under control … The cyber defense unit works day and night to combat cyber attacks and spy (computer) virus," he added.
Symantec, a U.S. computer security firm, said in October (http://www.redorbit.com/news/technology/1112405020/symantec-claims-new-virus-preyed-on-irans-nuclear-program/index.html) that Duqu infections have been reported in a dozen countries, including Iran, France, Britain and India.
Microsoft said the virus takes advantage of a previously unknown vulnerability in Windows font-parsing engine to plant malicious code in the heart of a computer system.
Similarities between the Duqu and Stuxnet viruses have prompted speculation that the same culprits might be involved.
Duqu is similar to Stuxnet in that they are both designed to gather intelligence for future attacks on industrial control systems.
Stuxnet was designed to attack computer control systems made by German industrial giant Siemens and commonly used to manage water supplies, oil rigs, power plants and other infrastructures.

Software & Accessories / Re: Canon Has Released an Updated Version of its Digital Photo Professional Software
« on: December 17, 2014, 02:35:15 PM »I'm guessing it still doesn't read in the recipe from the previous version. Still, at least it's actually usable now since it's compatible with the 5D Mark II now.
It was always "usable" despite only now being available for the 5D2.
I'm glad more of the recent crop sensor cameras are being made compatible with DPP 4. I have both a 5D3 and an SL1/100D, so it will be nice to use this software for both cameras. Goodbye Aperture!

Robert Downey, Jr. Speaks Out on Son's Arrest for Cocaine Possession
Robert Downey, Jr. is speaking out on his son Indio's arrest for cocaine possession over the weekend.
Robert Downey, Jr. is speaking out on his son Indio's arrest for cocaine possession over the weekend.
Anyone who has been following superhero movies knows that Robert Downey, Jr. has signed on to return as Tony Stark in 'The Avengers 2' and 'The Avengers 3,' but his future as Iron Man beyond that is up in the air. It's unlikely that Downey (who will be 53 when the third 'Avengers' film hits) will occupy the role forever, and Marvel hasn't been shy about recasting the character should the need ever arise.
And that brings us to the weird news bit of the day: Mark Wahlberg wants to takeover the part.
Things are going well for the super-heroic hunks of Hollywood, with 'Iron Man' portrayer Robert Downey Jr., White House savior Channing Tatum and Wolverine himself -- Hugh Jackman -- landing the top three spots on the list of Tinseltown's highest paid actors.
"Will Robert Downey, Jr. star in 'Iron Man 4?'" has been a very hot question over the past few weeks. Robert Downey, Jr. and his co-stars have been asked ad nauseum about the potential for another sequel and they've all had varying reactions. But here's a more realistic question: What if it doesn't matter if Robert Downey, Jr. will return for 'Iron Man 4? Marvel, it seems, is already planning for life without their biggest star.
In one of the most public contract negotiations of the modern era, Robert Downey Jr. has let it be known that he finished his contractual obligations to Marvel and to playing Tony Stark and Iron Man. Which means his future involvement with both 'The Avengers' and 'Iron Man' will depend on how much Marvel is willing to pony up.
A group of children who helped out in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy got a special surprise during an advanced 'Iron Man 3' screening on Monday, April 29, when star Robert Downey Jr. showed up to thank them for their hard work.
Although it doesn't open in the United States for another week and change, 'Iron Man 3' has already started rolling out internationally, garnering its fair share of rave reviews. While some audiences are already getting the chance to see the whole movie, we simply have to sit back and play the waiting game. Well, at least the waiting game involves a new behind-the-scenes look and footage from the film!
If you're as excited as we are about 'Iron Man 3,' then you'll love this new trailer which was released today. Cool new armor? Check. A hero in peril? You bet. A new baddie to rival all others? Ben Kingsley! Prepare to feast your eyes.

Pressure for Market-Based Medicaid Reform Rises
Medicaid's skyrocketing expenditures are reaching a breaking point in state budgets, experts say, and state legislatures are responding with sweeping new reform bills that fundamentally change the way states finance and deliver the federally mandated program.
"Medicaid spending consumes, on average, roughly 25 percent of states' budgets. This figure continues to grow, and will grow unabated unless states reform their Medicaid programs," said Michael Keegan, director of the Tax and Fiscal Policy Task Force at the American Legislative Exchange Council, the nation's largest nonpartisan membership association of state legislators.
"Because this rate of growth cannot be sustained, the question is no longer whether states will implement structural reforms, but rather when and how they will do so," Keegan added.
'Perverse Incentives' Cited
Some legislators say Medicaid's budget woes stem from "perverse incentives" that encourage state governments, doctors, and patients to overspend and overutilize medical care.
"The dollar-for-dollar federal match on Medicaid wrongly encourages states to milk the Medicaid system, and low reimbursement rates mean that doctors might have the incentive to add unnecessary medical tests just to stay profitable," said Indiana state Rep. David Frizzell (R-Indianapolis), who is working with his state's Medicaid officials to develop a "cash and counseling" waiver for certain Medicaid beneficiaries.
"Perhaps the most important element of Medicaid reform is that beneficiaries have a stake in their own health care spending. It makes sense from a budgetary standpoint, and it also empowers individuals," Frizzell said.
Budgets, Patient Health Linked
Health policy experts agree Medicaid's budget and patient health outcomes are inextricably linked.
"We tend to think about money. And states have gone down this road before, with cutting Medicaid reimbursements and limiting access to prescription drugs," said Nina Owcharenko, senior health policy analyst for The Heritage Foundation. "States should recognize that Medicaid reform should not just be about budgetary concerns. They need to focus on how an unsustainable program will affect the health of their citizens. It's not about slashing and burning. It's about preserving the program for the most vulnerable citizens."
Trying Consumer-Directed Approaches
Several states are experimenting with a consumer-directed approach--allowing Medicaid beneficiaries to own a fixed amount to pay for a benefit plan of their choice, or to opt out of Medicaid and purchase health insurance through an employer.
Florida will be the first state to implement such reforms in two test counties in June, as its "Empowered Care" waiver was approved by the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Florida legislature last fall.
Under the plan, insurance companies will compete in a "Medicaid marketplace" and offer varying benefit packages that specialize in certain health needs. The plan also will allow beneficiaries to opt out of Medicaid and purchase health insurance through their employer, and to earn extra money in "enhanced benefit accounts" by participating in healthy practices.
Lawmakers are hopeful the program will serve both Medicaid beneficiaries and taxpayers well.
"Patient empowerment, marketplace competition, access to quality care, and cost stability are worthy goals that Florida and every state should strive for in reforming Medicaid," said Florida state Rep. Gayle Harrell (R-Port St. Lucie), a key legislative player in her state's Medicaid reform effort.
SC Starts 'Healthy Connections'
South Carolina is moving forward with its "Healthy Connections" Medicaid reform plan, but without prior CMS approval. In February, Gov. Mark Sanford (R) announced his plan could proceed due to a provision in the federal Deficit Reduction Act (DRA).
The Healthy Connections plan allows Medicaid beneficiaries to own a "personal health account" to directly pay for medical expenses, join a managed care plan, or buy employer-sponsored insurance.
South Carolina also is applying to be part of a 10-state pilot program to test the use of health savings accounts by Medicaid beneficiaries, under another DRA provision.
"Policymakers and the people of South Carolina should be encouraged that Governor Sanford is trying new things with reforming Medicaid," said Owcharenko. "With [the new provisions] in the Deficit Reduction Act, he's looking at any opportunity he has to move reform forward."
Oklahoma Considers Competition
At press time, the Oklahoma Senate was considering House Bill 2842, which would authorize the Oklahoma Health Care Authority--the state agency charged with administering Medicaid--to submit a CMS waiver allowing personal health accounts for Medicaid beneficiaries and eliminating costly mandated benefits from the Medicaid program.
Oklahoma state Rep. Kris Steele (R-Shawnee), the bill's sponsor, said he's "cautiously optimistic" the bill will pass the Senate and survive Gov. Brad Henry's (D) veto pen.
"This reform plan is the future of Medicaid," Steele said. "Introducing competition into the system will change the bureaucracy of Medicaid and, in the process, change lives," added Steele.
Idaho OKs Health Accounts
Idaho's Medicaid reform bill--House Bill 663--was signed by Gov. Dirk Kempthorne (R) in March. The plan authorizes a CMS waiver to establish personal health accounts for all Medicaid beneficiaries, with differing beneficiary groups receiving different care packages based on their health needs. Supporters say the bill will encourage healthy lifestyles and the responsible use of medical care.
"There are [Medicaid beneficiaries] who use the emergency room as a health clinic because it's more convenient. This is costly, and it wastes precious resources that need to be used for real emergencies," said Idaho state Rep. Robert Ring (R-Caldwell), a retired physician and supporter of the bill. "But with personal health accounts, you eliminate the one-size-fits-all mandate from the federal government and instill personal responsibility."
Ring said Idaho has received informal assurances from CMS that the state's waiver would be approved.
"I'm proud of what we've done: preserving the Medicaid safety net and changing the way we do business," Ring said.
Reforms 'Overdue'
J. P. Wieske, director of state affairs for the Council for Affordable Health Insurance, a research and advocacy organization of insurance carriers, said Medicaid reform is overdue.
"We are in a doom and gloom situation. Costs are rising, patients are not getting healthier, and the government is creating a dependency and paternalism that doesn't help the Medicaid population," Wieske said. "They deserve to have quality health care. They deserve to make their own choices. They don't deserve getting squeezed out of the system."
