Hello all,
My name is Jake and I live in Cincinnati OH. I graduated from UCSB with a BA in Poli Sci in 2005. I have since gotten my OH real estate license and quickly got out of that disaster.
Anyhoo, I work in inside sales which is the majority of my professional experience but I am heavily considering an MUP at the University of Louisville or University of Cincinnati. I love urban planning and development and have been to this site many times before registering. But before I make that decision to go back to school, I am looking to learn more first hand experience from urban planning students and professionals. I want to pick their brains about daily life in the study and profession. i.e likes, dislikes, challenges, why they got into it etc.... But having a little trouble getting it off the ground. Any suggestions?
Thanks all!

This wedding is a little vintage, a little Italian, a little bohemian... and I'm obsessed with it. It's absolutely stunning and filled to bursting with so many heartfelt details the likes of which I've never seen before. But the thing I love most is the way Closer to Love Photography was able to capture the absolute love between these two.

Helfaut, France
This wide-ranging temporary exhibition offers audiences a chance to find out about the scientific and technological advances that accompanied the two world wars. Indeed, the extended duration of the first conflict would serve to highlight, in a spectacular and terrifying way, the radical technical transformations being deployed on the battlefields. When the war ended in late 1918, the belligerents left behind a combat environment that was technically very different to how it had begun in 1914, in terms of the widespread use of tanks, planes, submarines, gas and explosives. This phenomenon continued to an even greater extent during World War Two. The field of battle and the terms of military strategy were radically altered by the impact of these new forms of armaments.
The exhibition is offered in three languages: French, English and Dutch.
Every day non stop from 9 am to 6 pm

Étaples, France
From a modest expeditionary force sent to the Western Front in August 1914, the involvement of the British Empire has grown steadily during the Great War. This exhibition will make you discover how these forces were deployed, organized, how they fought are lived on the territory of the Pas-de-Calais, throughout the fifty-one months of conflict. Collected in seven themes, photographs and drawings, newspapers clippings, posters and postcards, individual testimonies, are so many media of the memory of this Allied presence and of its different facets, from the heart of the fights in the trenches to ties forged with inhabitants at the back-front.

Étaples, France
This exhibition steers clear of habitual war clichés, instead striving to retrace moments in time captured by amateurs and professionals, a record of men and women whose lives were disrupted by these four years on the front line, at the rear or in occupied zones. Moving past the illustrations everyone has seen in history books, these shots show the human side of a deadly war in which shared and intimate moments are given pride of place over depictions of barbaric fighting.

I contacted Luis Nunez at Via Trading about the situation. What were his responses after sending him several pictures of the merchandise and explaining to him in detail via phone and several emails about the condition of the merchandise?
"Based on the pictures I received it seems that not all of the merchandise has been checked through. Have you checked all the
merchandise, every item? I understand the 3d glasses are broken and ear phones- what about the rest? The boxes may look damaged but what about the physical item? Are you just looking at the top of the pallet?"
I also asked him on several occasions to stop another shipment of six pallets I bought from this company. [continued below]....
If you want to purchase missing, broken, salvage merchandise then by all means buy from Via Trading.

If I could I'd give no stars This literally shut down my phone. I had to take out my battery and put it back in to make it even start. Its also glitchy. it pops up different parts of the game when I'm TRYING to pay. Not to mention it made my phone overheat so bad that just touching my phone burned me. Don't download this.
Line Runner - Review Line Runner is decent; pretty reminiscent of old flash games on the internet. The objective is simple: run, jump and roll your way to a higher score. With ten different tracks (layouts) to choose from, it'll keep the players busy, with multiple ways to tackle them. I really liked this game until I noticed something which ruins the game completely... ads. You are bombarded with unskippable fifteen-second long ads. However turning off your Wi-Fi can fix this. The game itself is fairly laggy, too.
Ad harassment! To many! Too many interruptions because of the consistent ad harrasment, you can't even begin playing and an ad pops up, I uninstalled it. Too bad it is a fun game, but the commercial overload is really annoying. I know ads bring the money in because it's free. I would rather buy it and not deal with the stupid ads, then to have to keep being interrupted while bearly playing. Pretty lame...
Annoying ads I usually don't review apps a lot. Yours had so many ads I felt compelled to give a bad review before uninstalling. Seriously, video ads that you can't without closing the app? You know we could be on data right?
Glitch Right after I downloaded this game, my phone started glitching, first only when you open the app but now my whole phone is messed up. I do NOT recommend.
Doo doo It's really laggy and there's too many ads. I can't believe I was tricked into wasting my time on this trash game. 2 thumbs down. But it was a good try.

The act of farting in the bath tub and attempting to bite the bubbles before they reach the waters' surface.
Keith made me swear not to tell a soul, but I couldn't keep quiet anymore. He told me he likes to snarf while taking a bath. He said its such an addiction that he thinks about it all day at work. He can't wait to get home so he can take a bath.

As my boss is the final person to approve leave of some people in the company, I usually would come across quite a few hilarious reasons to take leave. I mean, not the reasons that are funny, just the way they word their reasons are pretty hilarious.
To me, I find annual leave is an entitlement. There is no need to mention reasons, unless you took emergency leave or you had finished your allocated leave before the year ends.
I came across a funny reason to take leave today.
"Long appointment with dentist. Major repair work required."
Lol! The project manager must be thinking of his work when he was applying his leave.
My boss' driver is very fond of putting this in every leave application form.
"Untuk beristirehat." (Malay: to rest and relax)
A few weeks ago, his reason was:-
"Untuk berehat dan menenangkan fikiran." (Malay: To rest and to calm the mind. Haha! I didn't know being a driver have to think that much)
One of the managers is very detailed about taking his annual leave that he had to attach flight details to his application form.
I saw his reason to take annual leave.
"To take my wife for a much deserving holiday to Cambodia."
Have you come across any funny way of wording reasons to take leave?

Milwaukee Opera Theatre, Genghis Barbie rock the art song
Audiences at opera singers' recitals do not, customarily, pump their arms and cheer. Of course, singers at said recitals don't usually perform tunes by Queen and Guns N' Roses flanked by a quartet of female horn players, either.
Saturday evening's Milwaukee Opera Theatre presentation of Andrew Wilkowske in "Guns N' Rosenkavalier," directed by John Glover at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, was a riot of rule-breaking, genre-bending tunes from the worlds of art song and rock. »Read Full Article

Burner Computers – and the meek shall inherit the electronsPosted: November 26, 2015 Filed under: Musings, Uncategorized | Tags: compatible, raspberry pi zero Leave a comment
I wanted to write these words a week ago, because the thought occurred to me then. But, today I read the news of the latest 5$ Raspberry Pi Zero. Of course, the world of computing has been on pause much of this past year waiting for the $9 Computer by Next Thing Co. Of course, the Spark Photon has been making hay over the past year, and has the added benefit of integrated wifi. Speaking of which, the ESP8266 really got things moving over the past year, because $3! But, that's for a fairly tiny micro controller, main benefit being integrated wifi.
So, how does this relate to burner computers? Well, you know, in the movies, and more so on television crime serials, people are always picking up burner phones. You know, the kind where you walk into a local convenience store, and seemingly pick a phone off the rack for about $30, make a few clandestine calls, and then throw it in the trash, or crush it convincingly under foot, or throw it deceivingly out the moving car window, or drop it into the pocket of a passerby to throw the trackers off your scent… You know "burner phones". They are so appealing because they're so cheap, and they provide such anonymous activity.
I feel computers are reaching the same level of ubiquity and cost structure. As an example, last week I took possession of a laser cutter. With the cutter there were two things. A DVD, which contained software drivers, and a USB stick which contained who knows what. Now, in days of old, I would have stuck that DVD into my Windows machine, seen what was on it, and probably unknowingly installed some sort of root kit. Same with the USB thing. Especially after reading about the USB Driveby, I realize there is no way to safely stick anything into your computer without coming away with some sort of disease. Even worse if you connect anything to the internet, but what ja gonna do?
Well, with a fully functional computer at $5, you can simply plug that foreign media in, browse around, use some forensic tools on it, and when you're done, or you've perhaps done this a few times, throw the computer away! Yep, that's right. It's served its purpose, that of being a prophylactic against diseases which might otherwise infect various other of your more important computing systems around the home and office.
So, at $5, or $9, or $3, or whatever the very low price is for 'robust enough' computing, the Compaticles have arrived! They will become ubiquitous, low power consumer, all encompassing, and they will inherit the computing landscape.
Now, all they all need is a Lua core, and we're all set.
Spelunking Linux – what is this auxv thing anywayPosted: November 18, 2015 Filed under: Core Programming, linux, Lua, LuaJIT | Tags: auxv, iterator, linux, lua, luajit Leave a comment
While spelunking Linux, trying to find an easier way to do this or that, I ran across this vDSO thing (virtual ELF Dynamic Shared Object). What?
Ok, it's like this. I was implementing direct calling of syscalls on Linux, and reading up on how the C libraries do things. On Linux, when you wan to talk to the kernel, you typically go through syscalls, or ioctl calls, or netlinks. With syscall, it's actually a fairly expensive process, switching from userspace to kernel space, issuing and responding to interrupts, etc. In some situations this could be a critical performance hit. So, to make things easier/faster, some of the system calls are implemented in this little ELF package (vDSO). This little elf package (a dynamic link library) is loaded into every application on Linux. Then, the C library can decide to make calls into that library, instead of syscalls, thus saving a lot of overhead and speeding things up. Not all systems have this capability, but many do.
Alright, so how does the C runtime know whether the capability is there or now, and where this little library is, and how to get at functions therewith? In steps our friend auxv. In the GNU C library, there is a lone call:
unsigned long getauxval(unsigned long);
What values can you get out of this thing? Well, the constants can be found in the elf.h file, and look like:
#define AT_PLATFORM 15 #define AT_PAGESZ 6
And about 30 others. How you use each of these depends on the type of the value that you are looking up. For instance, the AT_PLATFORM returns a pointer to a null terminated string. The AT_PAGESZ returns an integer which represents the memory page size of the machine you're running on.
OK, so what's the lua version?
ffi.cdef[[ static const int AT_NULL = 0; static const int AT_IGNORE = 1; static const int AT_EXECFD = 2; static const int AT_PHDR = 3; static const int AT_PHENT = 4; static const int AT_PHNUM = 5; static const int AT_PAGESZ = 6; static const int AT_BASE = 7; static const int AT_FLAGS = 8; static const int AT_ENTRY = 9; static const int AT_NOTELF = 10; static const int AT_UID = 11; static const int AT_EUID = 12; static const int AT_GID = 13; static const int AT_EGID = 14; static const int AT_CLKTCK = 17; static const int AT_PLATFORM = 15; static const int AT_HWCAP = 16; static const int AT_FPUCW = 18; static const int AT_DCACHEBSIZE = 19; static const int AT_ICACHEBSIZE = 20; static const int AT_UCACHEBSIZE = 21; static const int AT_IGNOREPPC = 22; static const int AT_SECURE = 23; static const int AT_BASE_PLATFORM = 24; static const int AT_RANDOM = 25; static const int AT_HWCAP2 = 26; static const int AT_EXECFN = 31; static const int AT_SYSINFO = 32; static const int AT_SYSINFO_EHDR = 33; static const int AT_L1I_CACHESHAPE = 34; static const int AT_L1D_CACHESHAPE = 35; static const int AT_L2_CACHESHAPE = 36; ]] ffi.cdef[[ unsigned long getauxval(unsigned long); ]]
With this, I can then write code that looks like the following:
local function getStringAuxVal(atype) local res = libc.getauxval(atype) if res == 0 then return false, "type not found" end local str = ffi.string(ffi.cast("char *", res)); return str end local function getIntAuxValue(atype) local res = libc.getauxval(atype) if res == 0 then return false, "type not found" end return tonumber(res); end local function getPtrAuxValue(atype) local res = libc.getauxval(atype) if res == 0 then return false, "type not found" end return ffi.cast("intptr_t", res); end -- convenience functions local function getExecPath() return getStringAuxVal(libc.AT_EXECFN); end local function getPlatform() return getStringAuxVal(libc.AT_PLATFORM); end local function getPageSize() return getIntAuxValue(libc.AT_PAGESZ); end local function getRandom() return getPtrAuxValue(libc.AT_RANDOM); end --[[ Some test cases --]] print(" Platform: ", getPlatform()); print("Exec Path: ", getExecPath()); print("Page Size: ", getPageSize()); print(" Random: ", getRandom());
And so on and so forth, assuming you have the proper 'libc' luajit ffi binding, which gives you access to constants through the 'libc.' mechanism.
OK, fine, if I'm a C programmer, and I just want to port some code that's already doing this sort of thing. By the way, the one value that we're interested in is: AT_SYSINFO_EHDR. That contains a pointer to the beginning of our vDSO. Then you can call functions directly from there (there's an API for that).
But, if I'm a lua programmer, I've come to expect more out of my environment, largely because I'm lazy and don't like so much typing. Upon further examination, you can get this information yourself. If you're hard core, you can look at the top of memory in your program, and map that location to a pointer you can fiddle with directly. Otherwise, you can actually get this information from a 'file' on Linux.
Turns out that you can get this info from '/proc/self/auxv', if you're running this command about your current process (which you most likely are). So, now what can I do with that? Well, the lua way would be the following:
-- auxv_iter.lua local ffi = require("ffi") local libc = require("libc") local E = {} -- This table maps the constant values for the various -- AT_* types to their symbolic names. This table is used -- to both generate cdefs, as well and hand back symbolic names -- for the keys. local auxtbl = { [0] = "AT_NULL"; [1] = "AT_IGNORE"; [2] = "AT_EXECFD"; [3] = "AT_PHDR"; [4] = "AT_PHENT"; [5] = "AT_PHNUM"; [6] = "AT_PAGESZ"; [7] = "AT_BASE"; [8] = "AT_FLAGS"; [9] = "AT_ENTRY"; [10] = "AT_NOTELF"; [11] = "AT_UID"; [12] = "AT_EUID"; [13] = "AT_GID"; [14] = "AT_EGID"; [17] = "AT_CLKTCK"; [15] = "AT_PLATFORM"; [16] = "AT_HWCAP"; [18] = "AT_FPUCW"; [19] = "AT_DCACHEBSIZE"; [20] = "AT_ICACHEBSIZE"; [21] = "AT_UCACHEBSIZE"; [22] = "AT_IGNOREPPC"; [23] = "AT_SECURE"; [24] = "AT_BASE_PLATFORM"; [25] = "AT_RANDOM"; [26] = "AT_HWCAP2"; [31] = "AT_EXECFN"; [32] = "AT_SYSINFO"; [33] = "AT_SYSINFO_EHDR"; [34] = "AT_L1I_CACHESHAPE"; [35] = "AT_L1D_CACHESHAPE"; [36] = "AT_L2_CACHESHAPE"; } -- Given a auxv key(type), and the value returned from reading -- the file, turn the value into a lua specific type. -- string pointers --> string -- int values -> number -- pointer values -> intptr_t local function auxvaluefortype(atype, value) if atype == libc.AT_EXECFN or atype == libc.AT_PLATFORM then return ffi.string(ffi.cast("char *", value)) end if atype == libc.AT_UID or atype == libc.AT_EUID or atype == libc.AT_GID or atype == libc.AT_EGID or atype == libc.AT_FLAGS or atype == libc.AT_PAGESZ or atype == libc.AT_HWCAP or atype == libc.AT_CLKTCK or atype == libc.AT_PHENT or atype == libc.AT_PHNUM then return tonumber(value) end if atype == libc.AT_SECURE then if value == 0 then return false else return true; end end return ffi.cast("intptr_t", value); end -- iterate over the auxv values at the specified path -- if no path is specified, use '/proc/self/auxv' to get -- the values for the currently running program local function auxviterator(path) path = path or "/proc/self/auxv" local fd = libc.open(path, libc.O_RDONLY); local params = { fd = fd; keybuff = ffi.new("intptr_t[1]"); valuebuff = ffi.new("intptr_t[1]"); buffsize = ffi.sizeof(ffi.typeof("intptr_t")); } local function gen_value(param, state) local res1 = libc.read(param.fd, param.keybuff, param.buffsize) local res2 = libc.read(param.fd, param.valuebuff, param.buffsize) if param.keybuff[0] == 0 then libc.close(param.fd); return nil; end local atype = tonumber(param.keybuff[0]) return state, atype, auxvaluefortype(atype, param.valuebuff[0]) end return gen_value, params, 0 end -- generate ffi.cdef calls to turn the symbolic type names -- into constant integer values local cdefsGenerated = false; local function gencdefs() for k,v in pairs(auxtbl) do -- since we don't know if this is already defined, we wrap -- it in a pcall to catch the error pcall(function() ffi.cdef(string.format("static const int %s = %d;", v,k)) end) end cdefsGenerated = true; end -- get a single value for specified key. A path can be specified -- as well (default it '/proc/self/auxv') -- this is most like the gnuC getauxval() function local function getOne(key, path) -- iterate over the values, looking for the one we want for _, atype, value in auxviterator(path) do if atype == key then return value; end end return nil; end E.gencdefs = gencdefs; E.keyvaluepairs = auxviterator; E.keynames = auxtbl; E.getOne = getOne; setmetatable(E, { -- we allow the user to specify one of the symbolic constants -- when doing a 'getOne()'. This indexing allows for the creation -- and use of those constants if they haven't already been specified __index = function(self, key) if not cdefsGenerated then gencdefs(); end local success, value = pcall(function() return ffi.C[key] end) if success then rawset(self, key, value); return value; end return nil; end, }) return E
In a nutshell, this is all you need for all the lua based auxv goodness in your life. Here are a couple of examples of usage in action:
local init = require("test_setup")() local auxv_util = require("auxv_iter") local apairs = auxv_util.keyvaluepairs; local keynames = auxv_util.keynames; local auxvGetOne = auxv_util.getOne; --auxv_util.gencdefs(); print("==== Iterate All ====") local function printAll() for _, key, value in apairs(path) do io.write(string.format("%20s[%2d] : ", keynames[key], key)) print(value); end end -- print all the entries printAll(); -- try to get a specific one print("==== Get Singles ====") print(" Platform: ", auxvGetOne(auxv_util.AT_PLATFORM)) print("Page Size: ", auxvGetOne(auxv_util.AT_PAGESZ))
The output from printAll() might look like this:
==== Iterate All ==== AT_SYSINFO_EHDR[33] : 140721446887424LL AT_HWCAP[16] : 3219913727 AT_PAGESZ[ 6] : 4096 AT_CLKTCK[17] : 100 AT_PHDR[ 3] : 4194368LL AT_PHENT[ 4] : 56 AT_PHNUM[ 5] : 10 AT_BASE[ 7] : 140081410764800LL AT_FLAGS[ 8] : 0 AT_ENTRY[ 9] : 4208720LL AT_UID[11] : 1000 AT_EUID[12] : 1000 AT_GID[13] : 1000 AT_EGID[14] : 1000 AT_SECURE[23] : false AT_RANDOM[25] : 140721446787113LL AT_EXECFN[31] : /usr/local/bin/luajit AT_PLATFORM[15] : x86_64
The printAll() function uses the auxv iteration function, which in turns reads the key/value pairs directly from the /proc/self/auxv file. No need for the GNU C lib function at all. It goes further and turns the raw 'unsigned long' values into the appropriate data type based on what kind of data the key specified represents. So, you get lua string, and not just a pointer to a C string.
In the second example, getting singles, the output is simply this:
Platform: x86_64 Page Size: 4096
The code for this goes into a bit of trickery that's possible with luajit. first of all, notice the use of 'auxv_util.AT_PAGESZ'. There is nothing in the auxv_iter.lua file that supports this value directly. There is the table of names, and then there's that 'setmetatable' at the end of things. Here's where the trickery happens. Basically, this function is called whenever you put a '.' after a table to try and access something, and that something isn't in the table. You get a chance to make something up and return it. Ini this case, we first call 'gencdefs()' if that hasn't already been called. This will generate 'static const int XXX' for all the values in the table of names, so that we can then do a lookup of the values in the 'ffi.C.' namespace, using the name. If we find a name, then we add it to the table, so next time the lookup will succeed, and we won't end up calling the __index function.
At any rate, we now have the requisite value to lookup. Then we just roll through the iterator, and return when we've got the value we were looking for. The conversion to the appropriate lua type is automatic.
And there you have it! From relative obscurity, to complete usability, in one iterator. Being able to actually get function pointers in the vDSO is the next step. That will require another API wrapper, or worst case, and all encompassing ELF parser…
cUrling up to the net – a LuaJIT bindingPosted: November 7, 2015 Filed under: Core Programming, Lua, LuaJIT, Network Programming | Tags: lua, luajit, network programming Leave a comment
I have need to connect to some Azure services from Linux, using C++. There are a few C/C++ libraries around that will make life relatively easy in this regard, but I thought I'd go with an option that has me learn about something I don't use that often, but will be fairly powerful and complete. I chose to use cURL, or libcurl.so to be more precise. Why? cURL has been around for ages, has continued to evolve, and makes it fairly easy to do anything from ftp down/upload to https connections. It has tons of options and knobs, including dealing with authentication, SSL, or just acting like an ordinary socket of you prefer that.
First I created a luajit binding to libcurl. This just follows my usual learning pattern. In order to conquer an API, you must first render it useful from Lua. I did my typical two part binding, first a fairly faithful low level binding, then added some luajit idioms atop. In this particular case, there's not a big database to query, although there are quite a few options that get listed in a table:
This is an excerpt from the original curl.h header file. There is a listing of some 200 options which can be set on a curl connection (depending on the context of the connection). This CINIT is a macro that sets the value of an enum appropriately. Well, those macros don't work in the luajit ffi.cdef call, so I needed a way to convert these. I could have just run the lot through the gcc pre-processor, and that would give me the values I needed, but I thought I'd take a different approach.
I wrote a bit of script to scan the curl.h file looking for the CINIT lines, and turn them into something interesting.
function startswith(s, prefix) return string.find(s, prefix, 1, true) == 1 end local function writeClean(filename) for line in io.lines(filename) do if startswith(line, "CINIT") then name, tp, num = line:match("CINIT%((%g+),%s*(%g+),%s*(%d+)") print(string.format("\t%-25s = {'%s', %s},", name, tp, num)) end end end
Well, that's nice. Now I have it as a useful table. I can write another script to turn that inti enums, or anything else.
local ffi = require("ffi") local filename = arg[1] or "CurlOptions" local options = require(filename) ffi.cdef[[ typedef enum { CURLOPTTYPE_LONG = 0, CURLOPTTYPE_OBJECTPOINT = 10000, CURLOPTTYPE_FUNCTIONPOINT = 20000, CURLOPTTYPE_OFF_T = 30000 }; ]] local function CINIT(na,t,nu) return string.format("\tCURLOPT_%s = CURLOPTTYPE_%s+%d,", na, t, nu) end local tbl = {} local function addenum(name, type, number) table.insert(tbl, CINIT(name, type, number)); end table.insert(tbl, "local ffi = require('ffi')"); table.insert(tbl, "ffi.cdef[[\ntypedef enum {") for k,v in pairs(options) do addenum(k, v[1], v[2]); end table.insert(tbl, "} CURLoption;]]"); local tblstr = table.concat(tbl,'\n') print(tblstr) -- now get the definitions as a giant string -- and execute it local defs = loadstring(tblstr); defs();
It's actually easier than this. I threw in the loadstring just to ensure the output was valid. Yah, ok basics.
libcurl is an extremely convenient library. As such, it can be a challenge to use. Fortunately, it has an 'easy' interface as well. Here, I chose to wrap the easy interface in an object like wrapper to make it even easier. Here's how you use it:
That will retrieve the entirety of any given url, and dump the output to stdout. Well, that's somewhat useful, and its only one line of code. This simple interface will become more sophisticated over time, including being the basis for REST calls, but for now, it suffices.
So, there you have it. libcurl seems to be a viable choice for web access from within lua. You could of corse just do it all with pure lua code, but, you probably wont be wrong to leverage libcurl.
Spelunking Linux – Decomposing systemdPosted: November 5, 2015 Filed under: Core Programming, linux, System Programming | Tags: linux, lua, luajit, systemd Leave a comment
Honestly, I don't know what all the fuss is about. What is systemd? It's that bit of code that gets things going on your Linux machine once the kernel has loaded itself. You know, dealing with bringing up services, communicating between services, running the udev and dbus stuff, etc.
So, I wrote an ffi wrapper for the libsystemd.so library This has proven to be handy, as usual, I can essentially write what looks like standard C code, but it's actually LuaJIT goodness.
--[[ Test using SDJournal as a cursor over the journal entries In this case, we want to try the various cursor positioning operations to ensure the work correctly. --]] package.path = package.path..";../src/?.lua" local SDJournal = require("SDJournal") local sysd = require("systemd_ffi") local jnl = SDJournal() -- move forward a few times for i=1,10 do jnl:next(); end -- get the cursor label for this position local label10 = jnl:positionLabel() print("Label 10: ", label10) -- seek to the beginning, print that label jnl:seekHead(); jnl:next(); local label1 = jnl:positionLabel(); print("Label 1: ", label1); -- seek to label 10 again jnl:seekLabel(label10) jnl:next(); local label3 = jnl:positionLabel(); print("Label 3: ", label3) print("label 3 == label 10: ", label3 == label10)
In this case, a simple journal object which makes it relatively easy to browse through the systemd journals that are laying about. That's handy. Combined with the luafun functions, browsing through journals suddenly becomes a lot easier, with the full power of lua to form very interesting queries, or other operations.
--[[ Test cursoring over journal, turning each entry into a lua table to be used with luafun filters and whatnot --]] package.path = package.path..";../src/?.lua" local SDJournal = require("SDJournal") local sysd = require("systemd_ffi") local fun = require("fun")() -- Feed this routine a table with the names of the fields -- you are interested in seeing in the final output table local function selection(fields, aliases) return function(entry) local res = {} for _, k in ipairs(fields) do if entry[k] then res[k] = entry[k]; end end return res; end end local function printTable(entry) print(entry) each(print, entry) end local function convertCursorToTable(cursor) return cursor:currentValue(); end local function printJournalFields(selector, flags) flags = flags or 0 local jnl1 = SDJournal(); if selector then each(printTable, map(selector, map(convertCursorToTable, jnl1:entries()))) else each(printTable, map(convertCursorToTable, jnl1:entries())) end end -- print all fields, but filter the kind of journal being looked at --printJournalFields(nil, sysd.SD_JOURNAL_CURRENT_USER) --printJournalFields(nil, sysd.SD_JOURNAL_SYSTEM) -- printing specific fields --printJournalFields(selection({"_HOSTNAME", "SYSLOG_FACILITY"})); printJournalFields(selection({"_EXE", "_CMDLINE"})); -- to print all the fields available per entry --printJournalFields();
In this case, we have a simple journal printer, which will take a list of fields, as well as a selection of the kinds of journals to look at. That's quite useful as you can easily generate JSON or XML, or Lua tables on the output end, without much work. You can easily select which fields you want to display, and you could even change the names along the way. You have the full power of lua at your disposal to do whatever you want with the data.
In this case, the SDJournal object is pretty straight forward. It simply wraps the various 'sd_xxx' calls within the library to get its work done. What about some other cases? Does the systemd library need to be used for absolutely everything that it does? The answer is 'no', you can do a lot of the work yourself, because at the end of the day, the passive part of systemd is just a bunch of file system manipulation.
Here's where it gets interesting in terms of decomposition.
Within the libsystemd library, there is the sd_get_machine_names() function:
_public_ int sd_get_machine_names(char ***machines) { char **l = NULL, **a, **b; int r; assert_return(machines, -EINVAL); r = get_files_in_directory("/run/systemd/machines/", &l); if (r < 0) return r; if (l) { r = 0; /* Filter out the unit: symlinks */ for (a = l, b = l; *a; a++) { if (startswith(*a, "unit:") || !machine_name_is_valid(*a)) free(*a); else { *b = *a; b++; r++; } } *b = NULL; } *machines = l; return r; }
The lua wrapper for this would simply be:
ffi.cdef("int sd_get_machine_names(char ***machines)")
Great, for those who already know this call, you can allocate a char * array, get the array of string values, and party on. But what about the lifetime of those strings, and if you're doing it as an iterator, when do you ever free stuff, and isn't this all wasteful?
So, looking at that code in the library, you might think, 'wait a minute, I could just replicate that in Lua, and get it done without doing any ffi stuff at all!
local fun = require("fun") local function isNotUnit(name) return not strutil.startswith(name, "unit:") end function SDMachine.machineNames(self) return fun.filter(isNotUnit, fsutil.files_in_directory("/run/systemd/machines/")) end
OK, that looks simple. But what's happening with that 'files_in_directory()' function? Well, that's the meat and potatoes of this operation.
local function nil_iter() return nil; end -- This is a 'generator' which will continue -- the iteration over files local function gen_files(dir, state) local de = nil while true do de = libc.readdir(dir) -- if we've run out of entries, then return nil if de == nil then return nil end -- check the entry to see if it's an actual file, and not -- a directory or link if dirutil.dirent_is_file(de) then break; end end local name = ffi.string(de.d_name); return de, name end local function files_in_directory(path) local dir = libc.opendir(path) if not dir==nil then return nil_iter, nil, nil; end -- make sure to do the finalizer -- for garbage collection ffi.gc(dir, libc.closedir); return gen_files, dir, initial; end
In this case, files_in_directory() takes a string path, like "/run/systemd/machines", and just iterates over the directory, returning only the files found there. It's convenient in that it will skip so called 'hidden' files, and things that are links. This simple technique/function can be the cornerstone of a lot of things that view files in Linux. The function leverages the libc opendir(), readdir(), functions, so there's nothing new here, but it wraps it all up in this convenient iterator, which is nice.
systemd is about a whole lot more than just browsing directories, but that's certain a big part of it. When you break it down like this, you begin to realize that you don't actually need to use a ton of stuff from the library. In fact, it's probably better and less resource intensive to just 'go direct' where it makes sense. In this case, it was just implementing a few choice routines to make file iteration work the same as it does in systemd. As this binding evolves, I'm sure there is other low lying fruit that I'll be able to pluck to make it even more interesting, useful, and independent of the libsystemd library.
Experiences of a Confessed LuaJIT Binder – The all in onePosted: October 26, 2015 Filed under: Core Programming, linux, LuaJIT | Tags: core libraries Leave a comment
It seems I've been writing binders, wrappers, frameworks, and the like for the entirety of my 35 years of programming. Why is that? Well, because the tools I use to program are often times not the same as those used to create various libraries, frameworks, and the like. Sometimes it's just that there is no universal bond between all those disparate libraries that you want to use, so you end up writing some wrappers, to make things look and behave similar.
I've written quite a lot about LuaJIT bindings, and produced rather a lot of them myself. Most recently, I was writing a binding for the D-Bus library on Linux. D-Bus is a communications protocol and mechanism meant to support Interprocess Communications. As such, it's about low latency, speed on read and write, and relative simplicity. You can do everything from pop-up and alert, to logging commands in a persistent log.
Here I want to show an approach that I've slowly grown and evolved over the past few years. This approach to writing bindings is written with a few constraints and aspirations in mind:
- Provide a low level interface that is as true to the underlying framework as possible.
- Porting typical C code to the wrapping should be straight forward and obvious
- Provide an interface that supports and leverages Lua idioms and practices
- Provide a wrapper that does not require a separate compilation step
That list of constraints is brief, but can cause enough trouble depending on how seriously you take each one of them. So, let's get to it.
Here I will use the LJIT2dbus project, because it gives a chance to exhibit all of the constraints listed above. Here's a bit of code:
--dbus.lua local ffi = require("ffi") if not DBUS_INCLUDED then local C = {} require ("dbus-arch-deps"); require ("dbus-address"); require ("dbus-bus"); require ("dbus-connection"); require ("dbus-errors"); require ("dbus-macros"); require ("dbus-message"); require ("dbus-misc"); require ("dbus-pending-call"); require ("dbus-protocol"); require ("dbus-server"); require ("dbus-shared"); require ("dbus-signature"); require ("dbus-syntax"); require ("dbus-threads"); require ("dbus-types"); C.TRUE = 1; C.FALSE = 0;
Yah, ok, not so exciting, just a bunch of 'require()' statements pulling in other modules. What's in one of these modules?
-- dbus-misc.lua local ffi = require("ffi") require("dbus-types") require("dbus-errors") ffi.cdef[[ char* dbus_get_local_machine_id (void); void dbus_get_version (int *major_version_p, int *minor_version_p, int *micro_version_p); ]]
Yes, again, more require() statements. But then, there are those couple of C functions that are defined. The other files have similar stuff in them. This is the basis of the constraint related to making the code familiar to a C programmer.
Let's look at another file which might turn out to be more illustrative:
local ffi = require("ffi") require("dbus-macros") require("dbus-types") require("dbus-protocol") ffi.cdef[[ /** Mostly-opaque type representing an error that occurred */ typedef struct DBusError DBusError; ]] ffi.cdef[[ /** * Object representing an exception. */ struct DBusError { const char *name; /**< public error name field */ const char *message; /**< public error message field */ unsigned int dummy1 : 1; /**< placeholder */ unsigned int dummy2 : 1; /**< placeholder */ unsigned int dummy3 : 1; /**< placeholder */ unsigned int dummy4 : 1; /**< placeholder */ unsigned int dummy5 : 1; /**< placeholder */ void *padding1; /**< placeholder */ }; ]] local function DBUS_ERROR_INIT() return ffi.new("struct DBusError", { NULL, NULL, TRUE, 0, 0, 0, 0, NULL }); end ffi.cdef[[ void dbus_error_init (DBusError *error); void dbus_error_free (DBusError *error); void dbus_set_error (DBusError *error, const char *name, const char *message, ...); void dbus_set_error_const (DBusError *error, const char *name, const char *message); void dbus_move_error (DBusError *src, DBusError *dest); dbus_bool_t dbus_error_has_name (const DBusError *error, const char *name); dbus_bool_t dbus_error_is_set (const DBusError *error); ]]
So more require() statements, a data structure, and some C functions. And how to use it? For that, let's look at the bottom of the dbus.lua file.
local Lib_dbus = ffi.load("dbus-1") local exports = { Lib_dbus = Lib_dbus; } setmetatable(exports, { __index = function(self, key) local value = nil; local success = false; -- try looking in table of constants value = C[key] if value then rawset(self, key, value) return value; end -- try looking in the library for a function success, value = pcall(function() return Lib_dbus[key] end) if success then rawset(self, key, value); return value; end -- try looking in the ffi.C namespace, for constants -- and enums success, value = pcall(function() return ffi.C[key] end) --print("looking for constant/enum: ", key, success, value) if success then rawset(self, key, value); return value; end -- Or maybe it's a type success, value = pcall(function() return ffi.typeof(key) end) if success then rawset(self, key, value); return value; end return nil; end, }) DBUS_INCLUDED = exports end return DBUS_INCLUDED
And just for reference, a typical usage of the same:
local dbus = require("dbus") local err = dbus.DBusError(); dbus.dbus_error_init(err); local bus = dbus.dbus_bus_get(dbus.DBUS_BUS_SESSION, err); if (dbus.dbus_bus_name_has_owner(bus, SYSNOTE_NAME, err) == 0) then io.stderr:write("Name has no owner on the bus!\n"); return EXIT_FAILURE; end
First case is the creation of the 'local err' value.
local err = dbus.DBusError(); dbus.dbus_error_init(err);
The dbus.lua file does not have a function called 'DBusError()'. All it has done is load a bunch of type and function declarations, to be used by the LuaJIT ffi mechanism. So, how do we get a function of that name? It doesn't even exist in one of the required modules.
The trick here is in the '__index' function of the dbus.lua table. The way the Lua language works, any time you make what looks like an access to the member of a table, if it can't be found in the table, and if the __index function is implemented, it will get called, with the key passed in as a parameter.
In this case, the '__index' function implements a series of lookups, trying to find the value that is associated with the specified key. First it tries looking in a table of constants. Then it tries looking in the actual library, for a function with the specified name. If it doesn't find the value as a function, it will try to find it as a constant in the C namespace. This will find any enum, or static const int values that have been defined in ffi.cdef[[]] blocks. Finally, if it doesn't find the key as one of the constants, it tries to figure out if maybe it's a type ('ffi.typeof'). This is in the case of DBusError, this one will succeed, and we'll get back a type.
As it turns out, the types returned from the LuaJIT ffi can be used as constructors.
So, what we really have is this:
local errType = dbus.DBusError; local err = errType();
The fact that you can just do it all on one line is a short hand.
This is a great convenience. Also, once the value is found, it is stuck into the dbus table itself, so that the next time it's used, this long lookup won't occur. The type is already known, and will just be retrieved from the dbus (exports) table directly.
Well, this works for the other kinds of types as well. For example, the 'dbus_error_init()' function is defined in a ffi.cdef[[]] block, and that's about all. So, when re reference it through dbus.dbus_error_init(), we're going to look it up in the library, and try to use the function found there. And again, once it's found, it will be stuffed into the dbus (exports) table, for future reference.
This works out great, in that it's fairly minimal amount of work to get all interesting things defined in ffi.cdef blocks, then just use this __index lookup trick to actually return the values.
I've come to this style because otherwise you end up doing a lot more work trying to make the constants, types, enums, and functions universally accessible from anywhere within your program, without resorting to global values. Of course you can make the __index lookup as complex as you like. You can lazily load in modules, for example.
That's it for this round. An all in one interface that gives you access to constants, enums, and functions in a ffi.cdef wrapped library.
Spelunking Linux – Yes, the system truly is a databasePosted: October 19, 2015 Filed under: Core Programming, linux, Lua, LuaJIT, System Programming | Tags: iterator, libudev, linux, luajit, spelunking Leave a comment
In this article: Isn't the whole system just a database? – libdrm, I explored a little bit of the database nature of Linux by using libudev to enumerate and open libdrm devices. After that, I spent some time bringing up a USB module: LJIT2libusb. libusb is a useful cross platform library that makes it relatively easy to gain access to the usb functions on multiple platforms. It can enumerate devices, deal with hot plug notifications, open up, read, write, etc.
At its core, on Linux at least, libusb tries to leverage the uvdev capabilities of the target system, if those capabilities are there. This means that device enumeration and hot plugging actually use the libuvdev stuff. In fact, the code for enumerating those usb devices in libusb looks like this:
udev_enumerate_add_match_subsystem(enumerator, "usb"); udev_enumerate_add_match_property(enumerator, "DEVTYPE", "usb_device"); udev_enumerate_scan_devices(enumerator); devices = udev_enumerate_get_list_entry(enumerator);
There's more stuff of course, to turn that into data structures which are appropriate for use within the libusb view of the world. But, here's the equivalent using LLUI and the previously developed UVDev stuff:
local function isUsbDevice(dev) if dev.IsInitialized and dev:getProperty("subsystem") == "usb" and dev:getProperty("devtype") == "usb_device" then return true; end return false; end each(print, filter(isUsbDevice, ctxt:devices()))
It's just illustrative, but it's fairly simple to understand I think. The 'ctxt:devices()' is an iterator over all the devices in the system. The 'filter' function is part of the luafun functional programming routines available to Lua. the 'isUsbDevice' is a predicate function, which returns 'true' when the device in question matches what it believes makes a device a 'usb' device. In this case, its the subsystem and dev_type properties which are used.
Being able to easily query devices like this makes life a heck of a lot easier. No funky code polluting my pure application. Just these simple query predicates written in Lua, and I'm all set. So, instead of relying on libusb to enumerate my usb devices, I can just enumerate them directly using uvdev, which is what the library does anyway. Enumeration and hotplug handing is part of the library. The other part is the actual send and receiving of data. For that, the libusb library is still primarily important, as replacing that code will take some time.
Where else can this great query capability be applied? Well, libudev is just a nice wrapper atop sysfs, which is that virtual file system built into Linux for gaining access to device information and control of the same. There's all sorts of stuff in there. So, let's say you want to list all the block devices?
local function isBlockDevice(dev) if dev.IsInitialized and dev:getProperty("subsystem") == "block" then return true; end return false; end
That will get all the devices which are in the subsystem "block". That includes physical disks, virtual disks, partitions, and the like. If you're after just the physical ones, then you might use something like this:
local function isPhysicalBlockDevice(dev) if dev.IsInitialized and dev:getProperty("subsystem") == "block" and dev:getProperty("devtype") == "disk" and dev:getProperty("ID_BUS") ~= nil then return true; end return false; end
Here, a physical device is indicated by subsystem == 'block' and devtype == 'disk' and the 'ID_BUS' property exists, assuming any physical disk would show up on one of the system's buses. This won't catch a SD card though. For that, you'd use the first one, and then look for a property related to being an SD card. Same goes for 'cd' vs ramdisk, or whatever. You can make these queries as complex or simple as you want.
Once you have a device, you can simply open it using the "SysName" parameter, handed to an fopen() call.
I find this to be a great way to program. It makes the creation of utilities such as 'lsblk' relatively easy. You would just look for all the block devices and their partitions, and put them into a table. Then separately, you would have a display routine, which would consume the table and generate whatever output you want. I find this much better than the typical Linux tools which try to do advanced display using the terminal window. That's great as far as it goes, but not so great if what you really want is a nice html page generated for some remote viewing.
At any rate, this whole libudev exploration is a great thing. You can list all devices easily, getting every bit of information you care to examine. Since it's all scriptable, it's fairly easy to taylor your queries on the fly, looking at, discovering, and the like. I discovered that the thumb print reader in my old laptop was made by Broadcom, and my webcam by 3M? It's just so much fun.
Well there you have it. The more you spelunk, the more you know, and the more you can fiddle about.
New Baby in the house!!Posted: October 4, 2015 Filed under: Musings, News 1 Comment
Of course you'd expect to see a picture here, or on Facebook, or Instagram, or whatever, but we don't roll like that.
New baby girl arrived 9/30 at 9:30am. September 28th was apparently a 'supermoon', and we've been having 'blood moon', and the pope was visiting and the president of China was visiting, and…
Seems like an interesting confluence, or near confluence. I especially like the 9/30, 09:30 thing. That will make it easier to remember.
Having newborns around means a couple of things. First and foremost, not a lot of sleep, although this one seems to sleep at least a couple hours here and there. Seems like we're constantly up from 10pm to 4 am, although it's probably not true. The second thing it means is that a lot of fairly shoddy code gets written. During those wee hours, between feedings, changes, and general soothing walks around the house, one or the other of the laptops is actually on my lap, and I'm slinging out code. It's funny though. Something that might take 2 hours to figure out during these late night sessions can take a mere minute to realize in the bright light of regular day hours. Nonetheless, I'm heeding the call of our President and making it possible for everyone to write code!
And so it goes. A new reason to write inspired code. There's someone new to reap the benefits of my labors.

NBER Working Paper No. w18066
This paper posits a notion of the value of an individual's human capital and the associated return on human capital. These concepts are examined using U.S. data on male earnings and financial asset returns. We find that (1) the value of human capital is far below the value implied by discounting earnings at the risk-free rate, (2) mean human capital returns exceed stock returns early in life and decline with age, (3) the stock component of the value of human capital is smaller than the bond component at all ages and (4) human capital returns and stock returns have a small positive correlation over the working lifetime.

Is there somewhere or someone I can go to and pay to fix up my mess?
I followed an online tutorial to move my site out of the subdirectory and into the root directory. Somehow, I screwed things up (although I'm not sure because I followed everything step by step & it was a video tutorial and I had exactly the same screen info showing on mine).
So I called my hosting provider and they reckon my site is now in a subdirectory of a subdirectory of a subdirectory :-(
They don't offer WordPress support but are kind of looking at it for me.
They seem to think the easiest will probably be to reinstall WordPress but I really don't want to start from scratch.
How can I do this? Or find someone to do it all for me?
Please help, I'm desperate!

After decades of slow integration, Europe has to face a decisive turning point. British citizens have expressed their will to leave the Union, adding a new element of instability in a Continent already plagued by economic stagnation and pressed by multiple crisis.
The unpredictability that has followed this event must not be underestimated in the short period.
Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon – Da Orks is out on PC, Steam and iOS!
Following the huge success of Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon and its long series of DLCs, we return to the Warhammer 40,000 universe, offering a whole new take on the 2nd War for Armageddon.
Time has come for another reportage from our Command Live News team on the ground!
How the Brexit referendum will impact on the quintessential Western collective defense, the North Atlantic Alliance?
Are the rumors of a Russian mobilization in the east confirmed? And how much effective would be a European countermove?
Hello everyone! We are releasing a new set of screenshots to display our upcoming stand-alone game, Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon - Da Orks.
In 2002, the original Strategic Command game was a relatively simple construct. With a limited rule set and a much smaller 62x37 map of approximately 2300 hexes, the requirements for the AI were not necessarily trivial, but in general terms, they were straightforward.
Fast forward to today, and Strategic Command WWII: War in Europe has been expanded into a modifiable hexagonal game engine allowing map sizes of up to 512x512 or 262,144 hexes!
We have received from the Command LIVE News Report editorial team their second dispatch, and as expected, this time is entirely focused on the Brexit situation!
A truly in-depth analysis, essential to better understand the military implications for NATO and Europe after this extremely important referendum.
Hello everyone! We are releasing a few new screenshots showing the new exclusive DLC for Command: Modern Naval Air Operations, You Brexit, You Fix it!
