National Chinese Anthem (Lyrics)
Background Information on China
Have you ever had a lot of questions about china? China is the coolest place ever.
To start out we are going to talk about China's religion. Taoism , it is there Chinese religion. Weird name , but from what I read it was pretty cool and weird at the same time. Taoism can be found everywhere just like any other religion, but this one evenly distributed everywhere unlike Christianity or Judaism it is mainly in places like China or North Korea .
Another question people might ask is how much pollution is there. Well, when I looked it up it said it was so bad it was about the same as a nuclear winter. And a nuclear winter is so bad that it covers the sun and it is so hard to see without a flashlight. I think it is worse than bad it is seriously bad.
China's president and his wife
China's president is Xi Jinping and his spouse is Peng Liyuan. Did you know that they are 34 years apart. That is like a long time ,that would mean he was 34 before she was born. That's crazy weird .I'm not one to doubt ,but I highly doubt that is even legal here in the U.S maybe even in the U.S.A . Once again that is crazy weird .
I feel as if this is very recommended for people at young age who are interested .I have learned a lot about china with my research .If I had a reason to remember this I think it would be if I ever went to China I would know something about it.

I’ve noticed that two materials with the same “dark” base color can look very different depending on their metallic value (1 or 0), and I’m trying to understand why, or if it’s a bug or mistake by my part.
Please, see this example:
The cube on the left (metallic set to 0) looks way brighter/greyish than the cube on the right (metallic set to 1). Both materials have the exact same values other than Metallic: base color is 1d1d1d and roughness is set to 0.4.
Why? Shouldn’t the rougher, non-metallic* material look darker?
Any help to understand this topic is appreciated. Thanks a lot!
I guess it’s the specular value that is being ignored when using the metalness workflow.
Both workflows, metalness and specular can produce similar results depending on the setup.
For more details have a look here
Thank you for your input, Lorenz, but still, how to prevent the colors from differing that much?
In both cases, the specular value is set to 0.5 (in Blender), and I’m using simple test maps generated for each of them in Subtance Painter.
Here’s the node setup for each material in Blender:
Material A (metallic: 0)
Material B (metallic: 1)
The setup is identical, except for the actual map files used. And again, the only difference is in the metallic map exported from Substance (one is flat black, the other flat white).
Thanks in advance for any advice on this topic.
Hi, I don’t know all the scientific details but what I can tell from experience and basic knowledge is that metallics and dielectrics are very different materials. Metals usually have a lighter albedo value than dielectrics, so indeed a dielectric with a .5 looks bright already but for a metallic, you go around .75 or higher (in most cases). Also common metals use just a bit saturation.
I mean, what you describe is not an issue in Blender, but it’s the difference between dielectrics and metals.
You’re mostly seeing a difference in specular.
As a rule of thumb:
With non-metallic surfaces, specular color is always the same, no matter the base color.
With metallic surfaces, specular color is multiplied with the base color.
As a result, the specular influence on your right cube is much lower, resulting in a darker cube.
This is correct behaviour.
Thanks for the replies, Thomas and Peetie. So this behavior is expected.
I understand dieletric and metallic materials react differently to light, but I wasn’t expecting the non-metallic one (Material A, in this case) to become that much brighter. It’s almost a light grey where the light hits more directly in the first image… I’ll give it a few more tries anyway, taking into account that the non-metallic material may need a darker base color, as you pointed.
An extra question that came up:
I’m using Principled BSDF, plugging in the basic PBR maps as image textures, and leaving the Specular value alone in the node setup (default 0.5). Should I tweak it or just leaving it alone is the correct course of action for a metalness workflow in Blender?
Quick update I’d like to share to anyone who may have a similar question in the future:
I tweaked the Specular value in Blender and in fact it made the color look darker as mentioned. Here’s the result:
This setup is slightly different, but it shows how the Specular value affects the materials. I always thought I should just leave it at default when setting up materials in Blender.
Thank you all very much for your help.
Four situations where I consider reducing the specular:
- If I think reflections are too bright at facing angles, this is purely an artistic choice.
- If I know the material structure is porous making specular reflections get absorbed. I.e. rubber.
- By viewing angle on bumpy materials to counter the “anti darkening fix”. Careful with this one.
- Procedurally set it to 0 in shadow gaps. I.e. gaps between wooden floorboards using a single plane.

The Evolving SRE Engagement Model
SRE Engagement: What, How, and Why
We've discussed in most of the rest of this book what happens when SRE is already in charge of a service. Few services begin their lifecycle enjoying SRE support, so there needs to be a process for evaluating a service, making sure that it merits SRE support, negotiating how to improve any deficits that bar SRE support, and actually instituting SRE support. We call this process onboarding. If you are in an environment where you are surrounded by a lot of existing services in varying states of perfection, your SRE team will probably be running through a prioritized queue of onboardings for quite a while until the team has finished taking on the highest-value targets.
Although this is very common, and a completely reasonable way of dealing with a fait accompli environment, there are actually at least two better ways of bringing the wisdom of production, and SRE support, to services old and new alike.
In the first case, just as in software engineering—where the earlier the bug is found, the cheaper it is to fix—the earlier an SRE team consultation happens, the better the service will be and the quicker it will feel the benefit. When SRE is engaged during the earliest stages of design, the time to onboard is lowered and the service is more reliable "out of the gate," usually because we don't have to spend the time unwinding suboptimal design or implementation.
Another way, perhaps the best, is to short-circuit the process by which specially created systems with lots of individual variations end up "arriving" at SRE's door. Provide product development with a platform of SRE-validated infrastructure, upon which they can build their systems. This platform will have the double benefit of being both reliable and scalable. This avoids certain classes of cognitive load problems entirely, and by addressing common infrastructure practices, allows product development teams to focus on innovation at the application layer, where it mostly belongs.
In the following sections, we'll spend some time looking at each of these models in turn, beginning with the "classic" one, the PRR-driven model.
The PRR Model
The most typical initial step of SRE engagement is the Production Readiness Review (PRR), a process that identifies the reliability needs of a service based on its specific details. Through a PRR, SREs seek to apply what they've learned and experienced to ensure the reliability of a service operating in production. A PRR is considered a prerequisite for an SRE team to accept responsibility for managing the production aspects of a service.
Figure 32-1 illustrates the lifecycle of a typical service. The Production Readiness Review can be started at any point of the service lifecycle, but the stages at which SRE engagement is applied have expanded over time. This chapter describes the Simple PRR Model, then discusses how its modification into the Extended Engagement Model and the Frameworks and SRE Platform structure allowed SRE to scale their engagement process and impact.
The SRE Engagement Model
SRE seeks production responsibility for important services for which it can make concrete contributions to reliability. SRE is concerned with several aspects of a service, which are collectively referred to as production. These aspects include the following:
- System architecture and interservice dependencies
- Instrumentation, metrics, and monitoring
- Emergency response
- Capacity planning
- Change management
- Performance: availability, latency, and efficiency
When SREs engage with a service, we aim to improve it along all of these axes, which makes managing production for the service easier.
Not all Google services receive close SRE engagement. A couple of factors are at play here:
- Many services don't need high reliability and availability, so support can be provided by other means.
- By design, the number of development teams that request SRE support exceeds the available bandwidth of SRE teams (see Introduction).
When SRE can't provide full-fledged support, it provides other options for making improvements to production, such as documentation and consultation.
Development guides are available for internal technologies and clients of widely used systems. Google's Production Guide documents production best practices for services, as determined by the experiences of SRE and development teams alike. Developers can implement the solutions and recommendations in such documentation to improve their services.
Developers may also seek SRE consulting to discuss specific services or problem areas. The Launch Coordination Engineering (LCE) team (see Reliable Product Launches at Scale) spends a majority of its time consulting with development teams. SRE teams that aren't specifically dedicated to launch consultations also engage in consultation with development teams.
When a new service or a new feature has been implemented, developers usually consult with SRE for advice about preparing for the Launch phase. Launch consultation usually involves one or two SREs spending a few hours studying the design and implementation at a high level. The SRE consultants then meet with the development team to provide advice on risky areas that need attention and to discuss well-known patterns or solutions that can be incorporated to improve the service in production. Some of this advice may come from the Production Guide mentioned earlier.
Consultation sessions are necessarily broad in scope because it's not possible to gain a deep understanding of a given system in the limited time available. For some development teams, consultation is not sufficient:
- Services that have grown by orders of magnitude since they launched, which now require more time to understand than is feasible through documentation and consultation.
- Services upon which many other services have subsequently come to rely upon, which now host significantly more traffic from many different clients.
These types of services may have grown to the point at which they begin to encounter significant difficulties in production while simultaneously becoming important to users. In such cases, long-term SRE engagement becomes necessary to ensure that they are properly maintained in production as they grow.
Production Readiness Reviews: Simple PRR Model
When a development team requests that SRE take over production management of a service, SRE gauges both the importance of the service and the availability of SRE teams. If the service merits SRE support, and the SRE team and development organization agree on staffing levels to facilitate this support, SRE initiates a Production Readiness Review with the development team.
The objectives of the Production Readiness Review are as follows:
- Verify that a service meets accepted standards of production setup and operational readiness, and that service owners are prepared to work with SRE and take advantage of SRE expertise.
- Improve the reliability of the service in production, and minimize the number and severity of incidents that might be expected. A PRR targets all aspects of production that SRE cares about.
After sufficient improvements are made and the service is deemed ready for SRE support, an SRE team assumes its production responsibilities.
This brings us to the Production Readiness Review process itself. There are three different but related engagement models (Simple PRR Model, Early Engagement Model, and Frameworks and SRE Platform), which will be discussed in turn.
We will first describe the Simple PRR Model, which is usually targeted at a service that is already launched and will be taken over by an SRE team. A PRR follows several phases, much like a development lifecycle, although it may proceed independently in parallel with the development lifecycle.
SRE leadership first decides which SRE team is a good fit for taking over the service. Usually one to three SREs are selected or self-nominated to conduct the PRR process. This small group then initiates discussion with the development team. The discussion covers matters such as:
- Establishing an SLO/SLA for the service
- Planning for potentially disruptive design changes required to improve reliability
- Planning and training schedules
The goal is to arrive at a common agreement about the process, end goals, and outcomes that are necessary for the SRE team to engage with the development team and their service.
Analysis is the first large segment of work. During this phase, the SRE reviewers learn about the service and begin analyzing it for production shortcomings. They aim to gauge the maturity of the service along the various axes of concern to SRE. They also examine the service's design and implementation to check if it follows production best practices. Usually, the SRE team establishes and maintains a PRR checklist explicitly for the Analysis phase. The checklist is specific to the service and is generally based on domain expertise, experience with related or similar systems, and best practices from the Production Guide. The SRE team may also consult other teams that have more experience with certain components or dependencies of the service.
A few examples of checklist items include:
- Do updates to the service impact an unreasonably large percentage of the system at once?
- Does the service connect to the appropriate serving instance of its dependencies? For example, end-user requests to a service should not depend on a system that is designed for a batch-processing use case.
- Does the service request a sufficiently high network quality-of-service when talking to a critical remote service?
- Does the service report errors to central logging systems for analysis? Does it report all exceptional conditions that result in degraded responses or failures to the end users?
- Are all user-visible request failures well instrumented and monitored, with suitable alerting configured?
The checklist may also include operational standards and best practices followed by a specific SRE team. For example, a perfectly functional service configuration that doesn't follow an SRE team's "gold standard" might be refactored to work better with SRE tools for scalably managing configurations. SREs also look at recent incidents and postmortems for the service, as well as follow-up tasks for the incidents. This evaluation gauges the demands of emergency response for the service and the availability of well-established operational controls.
Improvements and Refactoring
The Analysis phase leads to the identification of recommended improvements for the service. This next phase proceeds as follows:
- Improvements are prioritized based upon importance for service reliability.
- The priorities are discussed and negotiated with the development team, and a plan of execution is agreed upon.
- Both SRE and product development teams participate and assist each other in refactoring parts of the service or implementing additional features.
This phase typically varies the most in duration and amount of effort. How much time and effort this phase will involve depends upon the availability of engineering time for refactoring, the maturity and complexity of the service at the start of the review, and myriad other factors.
Responsibility for managing a service in production is generally assumed by an entire SRE team. To ensure that the team is prepared, the SRE reviewers who led the PRR take ownership of training the team, which includes the documentation necessary to support the service. Typically with the help and participation of the development team, these engineers organize a series of training sessions and exercises. Instruction can include:
- Design overviews
- Deep dives on various request flows in the system
- A description of the production setup
- Hands-on exercises for various aspects of system operations
When the training is concluded, the SRE team should be prepared to manage the service.
The Training phase unblocks onboarding of the service by the SRE team. It involves a progressive transfer of responsibilities and ownership of various production aspects of the service, including parts of operations, the change management process, access rights, and so forth. The SRE team continues to focus on the various areas of production mentioned earlier. To complete the transition, the development team must be available to back up and advise the SRE team for a period of time as it settles in managing production for the service. This relationship becomes the basis for the ongoing work between the teams.
Active services continuously change in response to new demands and conditions, including user requests for new features, evolving system dependencies, and technology upgrades, in addition to other factors. The SRE team must maintain service reliability standards in the face of these changes by driving continuous improvement. The responsible SRE team naturally learns more about the service in the course of operating the service, reviewing new changes, responding to incidents, and especially when conducting postmortems/root cause analyses. This expertise is shared with the development team as suggestions and proposals for changes to the service whenever new features, components, and dependencies may be added to the service. Lessons from managing the service are also contributed to best practices, which are documented in the Production Guide and elsewhere.
Evolving the Simple PRR Model: Early Engagement
Thus far, we've discussed the Production Readiness Review as it's used in the Simple PRR Model, which is limited to services that have already entered the Launch phase. There are several limitations and costs associated with this model. For example:
- Additional communication between teams can increase some process overhead for the development team, and cognitive burden for the SRE reviewers.
- The right SRE reviewers must be available, and capable of managing their time and priorities with regards to their existing engagements.
- Work done by SREs must be highly visible and sufficiently reviewed by the development team to ensure effective knowledge sharing. SREs should essentially work as a part of the development team, rather than an external unit.
However, the main limitations of the PRR Model stem from the fact that the service is launched and serving at scale, and the SRE engagement starts very late in the development lifecycle. If the PRR occurred earlier in the service lifecycle, SRE's opportunity to remedy potential issues in the service would be markedly increased. As a result, the success of the SRE engagement and the future success of the service itself would likely improve. The resulting drawbacks can pose a significant challenge to the success of the SRE engagement and the future success of the service itself.
Candidates for Early Engagement
The Early Engagement Model introduces SRE earlier in the development lifecycle in order to achieve significant additional advantages. Applying the Early Engagement Model requires identifying the importance and/or business value of a service early in the development lifecycle, and determining if the service will have sufficient scale or complexity to benefit from SRE expertise. Applicable services often have the following characteristics:
- The service implements significant new functionality and will be part of an existing system already managed by SRE.
- The service is a significant rewrite or alternative to an existing system, targeting the same use cases.
- The development team sought SRE advice or approached SRE for takeover upon launch.
The Early Engagement Model essentially immerses SREs in the development process. SRE's focus remains the same, though the means to achieve a better production service are different. SRE participates in Design and later phases, eventually taking over the service any time during or after the Build phase. This model is based on active collaboration between the development and SRE teams.
Benefits of the Early Engagement Model
While the Early Engagement Model does entail certain risks and challenges discussed previously, additional SRE expertise and collaboration during the entire lifecycle of the product creates significant benefits compared to an engagement initiated later in the service lifecycle.
SRE collaboration during the Design phase can prevent a variety of problems or incidents from occurring later in production. While design decisions can be reversed or rectified later in the development lifecycle, such changes come at a high cost in terms of effort and complexity. The best production incidents are those that never happen!
Occasionally, difficult trade-offs lead to the selection of a less-than-ideal design. Participation in the Design phase means that SREs are aware up front of the trade-offs and are part of the decision to pick a less-than-ideal option. Early SRE involvement aims to minimize future disputes over design choices once the service is in production.
Build and implementation
The Build phase addresses production aspects such as instrumentation and metrics, operational and emergency controls, resource usage, and efficiency. During this phase, SRE can influence and improve the implementation by recommending specific existing libraries and components, or helping build certain controls into the system. SRE participation at this stage helps enable ease of operations in the future and allows SRE to gain operational experience in advance of the launch.
SRE can also help implement widely used launch patterns and controls. For example, SRE might help implement a "dark launch" setup, in which part of the traffic from existing users is sent to the new service in addition to being sent to the live production service. The responses from the new service are "dark" since they are thrown away and not actually shown to users. Practices such as dark launches allow the team to gain operational insight, resolve issues without impacting existing users, and reduce the risk of encountering issues after launch. A smooth launch is immensely helpful in keeping the operational burden low and maintaining the development momentum after the launch. Disruptions around launch can easily result in emergency changes to source code and production, and disrupt the development team's work on future features.
Having a stable system at launch time generally leads to fewer conflicting priorities for the development team in terms of choosing between improving service reliability versus adding new features. In later phases of the service, the lessons from earlier phases can better inform refactoring or redesign.
With extended involvement, the SRE team can be ready to take over the new service much sooner than is possible with the Simple PRR Model. The longer and closer engagement between the SRE and development teams also creates a collaborative relationship that can be sustained long term. A positive cross-team relationship fosters a mutual feeling of solidarity, and helps SRE establish ownership of the production responsibility.
Disengaging from a service
Sometimes a service doesn't warrant full-fledged SRE team management—this determination might be made post-launch, or SRE might engage with a service but never officially take it over. This is a positive outcome, because the service has been engineered to be reliable and low maintenance, and can therefore remain with the development team.
It is also possible that SRE engages early with a service that fails to meet the levels of usage projected. In such cases, the SRE effort spent is simply part of the overall business risk that comes with new projects, and a small cost relative to the success of projects that meet expected scale. The SRE team can be reassigned, and lessons learned can be incorporated into the engagement process.
Evolving Services Development: Frameworks and SRE Platform
The Early Engagement Model made strides in evolving SRE engagement beyond the Simple PRR Model, which applied only to services that had already launched. However, there was still progress to be made in scaling SRE engagement to the next level by designing for reliability.
Over time, the SRE engagement model described thus far produced several distinct patterns:
- Onboarding each service required two or three SREs and typically lasted two or three quarters. The lead times for a PRR were relatively high (quarters away). The effort level required was proportional to the number of services under review, and was constrained by the insufficient number of SREs available to conduct PRRs. These conditions led to serialization of service takeovers and strict service prioritization.
- Due to differing software practices across services, each production feature was implemented differently. To meet PRR-driven standards, features usually had to be reimplemented specifically for each service or, at best, once for each small subset of services sharing code. These reimplementations were a waste of engineering effort. One canonical example is the implementation of functionally similar logging frameworks repeatedly in the same language because different services didn't implement the same coding structure.
- A review of common service issues and outages revealed certain patterns, but there was no way to easily replicate fixes and improvements across services. Typical examples included service overload situations and data hot-spotting.
- SRE software engineering contributions were often local to the service. Thus, building generic solutions to be reused was difficult. As a consequence, there was no easy way to implement new lessons individual SRE teams learned and best practices across services that had already been onboarded.
External Factors Affecting SRE
External factors have traditionally pressured the SRE organization and its resources in several ways.
Google is increasingly following the industry trend of moving toward microservices.151 As a result, both the number of requests for SRE support and the cardinality of services to support have increased. Because each service has a base fixed operational cost, even simple services demand more staffing. Microservices also imply an expectation of lower lead time for deployment, which was not possible with the previous PRR model (which had a lead time of months).
Hiring experienced, qualified SREs is difficult and costly. Despite enormous effort from the recruiting organization, there are never enough SREs to support all the services that need their expertise. Once SREs are hired, their training is also a lengthier process than is typical for development engineers.
Finally, the SRE organization is responsible for serving the needs of the large and growing number of development teams that do not already enjoy direct SRE support. This mandate calls for extending the SRE support model far beyond the original concept and engagement model.
Toward a Structural Solution: Frameworks
To effectively respond to these conditions, it became necessary to develop a model that allowed for the following principles:
- Codified best practices
- The ability to commit what works well in production to code, so services can simply use this code and become "production ready" by design.
- Reusable solutions
- Common and easily shareable implementations of techniques used to mitigate scalability and reliability issues.
- A common production platform with a common control surface
- Uniform sets of interfaces to production facilities, uniform sets of operational controls, and uniform monitoring, logging, and configuration for all services.
- Easier automation and smarter systems
- A common control surface that enables automation and smart systems at a level not possible before. For example, SREs can readily receive a single view of relevant information for an outage, rather than hand collecting and analyzing mostly raw data from disparate sources (logs, monitoring data, and so on).
Based upon these principles, a set of SRE-supported platform and service frameworks were created, one for each environment we support(Java, C++, Go). Services built using these frameworks share implementations that are designed to work with the SRE-supported platform, and are maintained by both SRE and development teams. The main shift brought about by frameworks was to enable product development teams to design applications using the framework solution that was built and blessed by SRE, as opposed to either retrofitting the application to SRE specifications after the fact, or retrofitting more SREs to support a service that was markedly different than other Google services.
An application typically comprises some business logic, which in turn depends on various infrastructure components. SRE production concerns are largely focused on the infrastructure-related parts of a service. The service frameworks implement infrastructure code in a standardized fashion and address various production concerns. Each concern is encapsulated in one or more framework modules, each of which provides a cohesive solution for a problem domain or infrastructure dependency. Framework modules address the various SRE concerns enumerated earlier, such as:
- Instrumentation and metrics
- Request logging
- Control systems involving traffic and load management
SRE builds framework modules to implement canonical solutions for the concerned production area. As a result, development teams can focus on the business logic, because the framework already takes care of correct infrastructure use.
A framework essentially is a prescriptive implementation for using a set of software components and a canonical way of combining these components. The framework can also expose features that control various components in a cohesive manner. For example, a framework might provide the following:
- Business logic organized as well-defined semantic components that can be referenced using standard terms
- Standard dimensions for monitoring instrumentation
- A standard format for request debugging logs
- A standard configuration format for managing load shedding
- Capacity of a single server and determination of "overload" that can both use a semantically consistent measure for feedback to various control systems
Frameworks provide multiple upfront gains in consistency and efficiency. They free developers from having to glue together and configure individual components in an ad hoc service-specific manner, in ever-so-slightly incompatible ways, that then have to be manually reviewed by SREs. They drive a single reusable solution for production concerns across services, which means that framework users end up with the same common implementation and minimal configuration differences.
Google supports several major languages for application development, and frameworks are implemented across all of these languages. While different implementations of the framework (say in C++ versus Java) can't share code, the goal is to expose the same API, behavior, configuration, and controls for identical functionality. Therefore, development teams can choose the language platform that fits their needs and experience, while SREs can still expect the same familiar behavior in production and standard tools to manage the service.
New Service and Management Benefits
The structural approach, founded on service frameworks and a common production platform and control surface, provided a host of new benefits.
Significantly lower operational overhead
A production platform built on top of frameworks with stronger conventions significantly reduced operational overhead, for the following reasons:
- It supports strong conformance tests for coding structure, dependencies, tests, coding style guides, and so on. This functionality also improves user data privacy, testing, and security conformance.
- It features built-in service deployment, monitoring, and automation for all services.
- It facilitates easier management of large numbers of services, especially micro-services, which are growing in number.
- It enables much faster deployment: an idea can graduate to fully deployed SRE-level production quality in a matter of days!
Universal support by design
The constant growth in the number of services at Google means that most of these services can neither warrant SRE engagement nor be maintained by SREs. Regardless, services that don't receive full SRE support can be built to use production features that are developed and maintained by SREs. This practice effectively breaks the SRE staffing barrier. Enabling SRE-supported production standards and tools for all teams improves the overall service quality across Google. Furthermore, all services that are implemented with frameworks automatically benefit from improvements made over time to frameworks modules.
Faster, lower overhead engagements
The frameworks approach results in faster PRR execution because we can rely upon:
- Built-in service features as part of the framework implementation
- Faster service onboarding (usually accomplished by a single SRE during one quarter)
- Less cognitive burden for the SRE teams managing services built using frameworks
These properties allow SRE teams to lower the assessment and qualification effort for service onboarding, while maintaining a high bar on service production quality.
Service reliability can be improved through SRE engagement, in a process that includes systematic review and improvement of its production aspects. Google SRE’s initial such systematic approach, the Simple Production Readiness Review, made strides in standardizing the SRE engagement model, but was only applicable to services that had already entered the Launch phase.
Over time, SRE extended and improved this model. The Early Engagement Model involved SRE earlier in the development lifecycle in order to "design for reliability." As demand for SRE expertise continued to grow, the need for a more scalable engagement model became increasingly apparent. Frameworks for production services were developed to meet this demand: code patterns based on production best practices were standardized and encapsulated in frameworks, so that use of frameworks became a recommended, consistent, and relatively simple way of building production-ready services.
All three of the engagement models described are still practiced within Google. However, the adoption of frameworks is becoming a prominent influence on building production-ready services at Google as well as profoundly expanding the SRE contribution, lowering service management overhead, and improving baseline service quality across the organization.
152Occasionally, there were consulting engagements by SRE teams with some non-onboarded services, but consultations were a best-effort approach and limited in number and scope.
153The new model of service management changes the SRE staffing model in two ways: (1) because a lot of service technology is common, it reduces the number of required SREs per service; (2) it enables the creation of production platforms with separation of concerns between production platform support (done by SREs) and service-specific business-logic support, which remains with the development team. These platforms teams are staffed based upon the need to maintain the platform rather than upon service count, and can be shared across products.

We plan to use elasticsearch-hadoop bolt in storm with 2.x version of Elastic-Search.
So we cannot use the es.mapping.routing option because that does not work with 2.x version.
And since we never want to search by ID, we just want that whatever ES-node gets the big bulk of documents, that node should consume those documents without distributing it any further (except its replicas).
Is there a way that I can disable routing in elastic-search via some configuration or custom-jar/plugin?
The code around https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/blob/0aba19f4fa5c4fa2ac76ee96996d463a838248ac/core/src/main/java/org/elasticsearch/cluster/routing/OperationRouting.java#L175 looks somewhat promising.

Is there a reason why the signup page on many websites are totally separated from the rest? I noticed that it results as a single page, where there is only the logo of the site and the signup form. No footer, no links, no header etc. The page seems to be totally separated from the rest of the site. I think that it could depends on the fact that users must not go away from this page, but I'm wondering how can I go back and return to the home page?Some sites (es. Linkedin) don't allow you to go back, and you have to rely on browser back button. What do you think about it?Is it a UX guidelines or just a "trend"?
In addition to all of the previous answers, another factor for the independent sign-up page is that there may be some referral data at play. A great deal of services want to know where a user was linked from – be it Twitter, Facebook or some other site – in order to measure the impact of their advertising efforts or influence. Additionally, there may also be some sort of bonus involved for the referrer or end user. For instance, if I send someone to my webhosts' sign-up page with a specific string appended to the URL, they get a discount and I can get a sign-up bonus. Allowing the user to access the site outside of that page prevents this type of deal from working.
However, I don't think that completely disconnecting the end user from the rest of the site is that great of an idea. I would rather take the risk of not getting 100% accurate analytics data or missing out on a discount here or there than to allow for the perception of my service being untrustworthy or poorly architected.
If a user is directed to a sign up page then the only thing available for the user must be to sign up. When it comes to user experience the user must get what he/she is looking for and what he/she has come there for. Keeping other options/ information on the page may not only be less productive but may also host as a distraction for the visiting user. Hence the standalone page for it. This decision may be based on the changing rather evolving UX trends. However there may be guidelines that govern it that I am unaware of.
However there must be some kind of navigation option on the page that may help the user to exit the page without having the leave the site/ application. Unless it is the requirement of the site that the user has to be a member to view anything this kind of approach may be avoided, since if a user changes his/her mind of signin up and wants to browse through the content then it should be possible without having to exit the site and browsing back to it. Else that will be a dead end and the navigation of the site will be incomplete.
Here I'm giving a try- there are many dependencies the service provider would validate while anyone sign up for them. 1. Correct information 2. Security 3. Avoiding spam
From user experience point of view during signup, user has to depend upon his cognitive load. they have to recollect many things and also try different options. So to reduce this load, sign up page will be made as simple as possible.
Now a days, in many signup page, they are not asking to fill the form, instead user information is taken from different trusted sites which user has already a part of it. In this way, user also doesn't required to maintain different mail ids also websites too doesn't need too either.
Coming to your question about why there is no provision to go back to the main page, may be because they want to avoid spams as I mentioned above. And user to focus on this part itself.
May not be relevant but helpful insights http://janrain.com/blog/social-login-trends-across-web-q4-2013/
In addition to the reduction to cognitive load -
It might sometimes be a technical limitation. Many sites take you to completely different area as that separated area might be run by a completely third party site. Contests and Loyalty on some Publisher properties can run this way.
That may partially answer the back button dilemma.
The other half is perhaps to prevent double entry (if the user decides to refresh the page, or go back and then forward again.)
There is also the risk that if the user goes back and then forward again, they could lose the data they already typed in.

I'm a Lecturer, part of the Data Science and Computational Maths & Optimisation Research Groups within Computing Science and Mathematics at Stirling, and also a Visiting Fellow in Civil and Building Engineering at Loughborough University. I'm interested in explainable optimisation: techniques that yield optimal or near-optimal solutions but also explain their decisions, revealing underlying information about the problem to help people make informed decisions. My main focus is in metaheuristics, including evolutionary algorithms and estimation of distribution algorithms; related issues such as fitness modelling (and mining such models), handling constraints and multiple objectives, and decision support. I am also interested in the underlying theory of what makes particular algorithms suited to particular problems. I work in application areas including scheduling and simulation-based optimsation in civil engineering and transport, search-based software engineering (including green and energy efficient computing) and in art.

This is a bonus spin-off thought from the main mini-series. It doesn't quite fit into the main thread.
Caring and Minding
There's another case here which I think Fail Forward handles suboptimally, but which is relatively common. This is the situation where I care what the result is, but I don't mind.
Now, you can make a case that this is exactly the situation Fail Forward tries to create, by making both options equally interesting. But let's ignore that, and focus on situations where it's inherently true, rather than those where the GM makes it true.
This is actually a really common situation in the types of games I tend to play, which are generally relatively simulationist. The most obvious case is the very frequent one where I simply want to establish facts about the world around me. For example: Is there a secret door in this wall? Is this ruin historically associated with the Dark Lady? What kind of outfit is Hilgarth Enterprises? Can I hear anyone on the other side of this door?
I care what the result is, because otherwise I wouldn't have asked.* But I don't mind. I have no personal stake in the specific answer, but collapsing that particular waveform will open up new lines of enquiry or simply inform my future actions.
You can usefully distinguish it this way:
- I care whether there is a secret door, a letter for me, anyone inside the room, any reason to suspect Lord Surly of treason, or a pretty girl eyeing me across the room. I don't particularly mind whether those things are true or false.
- I mind whether my gold has been stolen, a balrog is chasing me, I can escape my manacles, I know a spell to banish this spirit, or I have any ammo left.
For example, if there is someone on the other side of the door, they might be a prisoner in need of rescue, or a dangerous enemy. Either of those might be good (I do a good deed and perhaps gain a reward or information; I test my mettle and gain XP) or bad (I have to keep the prisoner quiet, free them, wonder whether the guards will notice and raise the alarm, and complete an escort quest; the enemy kills me). I don't specifically want there to be someone there, but I do want to use my senses to establish that fact.
Similarly, if I'm playing in a setting with a Dark Lady in the backstory, and exploring a sinister tower where something has happened, it makes sense to rack my brains and check whether this tower is associated with her. If so, that suggests some things that might be happening: some of her followers might be here, or the tower might be rife with undead, or an evil influence might flow from a relic buried here. I can use that information to make guesses and prepare accordingly. If not, I want to think of other possibilities and carry out appropriate research. Either way, I want to use my historical and mythical knowledge to know the answer.
A Fail Forward system doesn't handle this particularly well, because it's not clear what reasonable consequence there could be for failing "I look for secret doors". In extreme cases it doesn't handle success well either. After all, you're not trying to create a secret door with sheer force of will; you just want to know what's going on. If I succeed at listening at the door, I don't want to have to tell the GM that there's someone inside.
In fact, Dungeon World handles this by not having any consequences for this kind of failure. Which I think is probably better than the alternative, but feels a little inconsistent. It does seem to highlight that adding consequences to an event is very much not always an improvement.
It gets even worse with "I check for traps". The very last thing you want is to try to ensure your safety by making sure there's no traps, and instead end up actively creating a hazard that then injures you. Or, coming back to our secret door, to suggest that there might be a secret door, fail the roll, and suddenly be ambushed by goblins emerging from a secret door that didn't exist until you thought of it. These are, to be clear, examples of reasonably bad GMing rather than game design per se, but I think they're a decent example of where the idea of dividing character skill rolls into two equally-interesting sets of consequences breaks down.
I also think in general it's worth considering GMing and design advice from the point of view of "what happens if the GM isn't very good?". You can't design away GMing problems, of course. On the other hand, there are always going to be situations where a GM is inexperienced, underconfident, takes things quite literally, assumes the advice will explicitly state caveats rather than assuming they will work it out, tired or drunk.
The thing is that if someone does fail a roll to look for a secret door, the chain of thought that leads to them being ambushed by goblins makes a degree of sense. You looked for a secret door and failed. Well, you can't have failed to find a door that isn't there, so maybe there was a door, in which case how does it go wrong? Ah, there were goblins hiding inside! Or there weren't, but some will come soon and sneak up on you!
Unfortunately this sort of thing affects what you might call the metagame. If, when you look for secret doors and fail, this action can cause you to be ambushed by goblins that otherwise did not exist, you are creating a penalty for yourself by doing something that wasn't necessary (but was fun and interesting) in the first place. The natural response is to avoid looking for secret doors.
This is true of any similar mechanic: if failed Social Interaction rolls can have you attacked by otherwise disinterested merchants, it really deters you from talking to anyone. If fighting Dreadbears gets you horribly injured, you'll tend to avoid fighting Dreadbears.
This kind of gameplay can discourage or sabotage certain playstyles. In particular it harms deduction-style investigation, where players want to painstakingly check leads and suspicions and eliminate possibilities. It also potentially harms cautious tactical play, where players want to use research and observation to gain as many advantages as possible.

Install License Key
This page is applicable for the latest image version
mcx-rtos-v.2024.01. For other mcx-rtos-images checkout: Older versions.
Motorcortex Libraries require a
[hardwarekey].lic) file to run in a production environment. This section will explain how to acquire and install
license.lic file. You can always run your Motorcortex application without a license key, but the program will exit after 30 minutes.
- Motorcortex.io account
- Motorcortex Controller with running a application connected to laptop
Log into the Motorcortex controller from the console using a screen and keyboard or through ssh as described in Remote Access & File Transfer.
Acquire The License File.
For generating a license file the controller Hardware key is needed.
Email this hardware key and list of components to
You wil receive a
123456789.licfile trough E-mail, where the filename corresponds to the Hardware Key.
Installing the license file on the controller.
The license file can be stored in any location on the controller and can have any filename, as long as the “license” tag in the config.json file points to this file.
You can therefore add the license file into the configuration package so you can deploy it through the portal. The drawback is that for every controller hardware, you need to have a separate configuration package. The solution is to install the license in a differnt location than the configuration folder, so it does not get overwritten if you deploy the configuration and the license file stays with the machine.
Preferred method: install the license file in /etc/motorcortex
The license file can be stored in a location that is not affected by deploying a configuration. The license now stays with the controller regardless of the configuration that is deployed. A convenient location for the license is
/etc/motorcortex/, this file directory is not overwritten when deploying a new configuration.
If you upgrade mcx-os this procedure has to be repeated.
Inside config.json change license path to:
copy the license to the controller via ssh
scp 123456789.lic [email protected]:. This will copy the license to the admin home folder: /home/admin/123456789.lic.
Log into the controller and move the license file to
/etc/motorcortex/with following command:
sudo mv /home/admin/123456789.lic /etc/motorcortex/
- To make sure that the target name of the license file in the config.json file is a generic name, like “license.lic”, so you can deploy the configuration to any hardware without having to adjust the name of the license file every time, you can create a symbolic link with that generic name “license.lic”:
ln -s 123456789.lic license.lic
- Confirm if the
symbolic linkis created:
In the output you should see:
license.lic -> 123456789.lic
license is bound to the controller hardware and will not be overwritten when deploying a configuration.
Installing the license in the configuration package
Go to login to your
motorcortex.ioaccount and open
Browse to the configuration package.
123456789.licfile in the configuration package (if you have to upload the file press
UPLOADtab on the right).
line #10change “licence.pem” to the name of your
Press save and exit the file.
Now you can deploy the configuration to the controller and the license should be correctly installed.
Check If The License File Is Valid
A license file is
valid if it matches the controllers
Hardware Key and application:
List of Components and
List Of Features. The status of the license can be seen in the log of the motorcortex application:
mcx-lastlog | grep License
If your license check turns out
invalid: check if your
List Of Components and
List Of Features matches your application.

The Demise of Machine Learning Algorithms
Students who want to do a beginner-level programme will find Python a programming language that is great to begin with. Comments are supposed to be read by people and are ignored by means of a Logo interpreter.
Most Noticeable Machine Learning Algorithms
Although the code is longer, the algorithm is much more effective. You do not need to memorize calculations that are complicated have a peek here that are long to fix the cube employing this report. It’s helpful to tour the algorithms in the field to find a feeling of what approaches are readily available.
Let us now carry out a program on Jupyter. Therefore it becomes simpler for the app to become integrated with the users’ daily routine.
Programming There are a lot of online courses that are finest that can teach you. Among the benefits of supervised learning is that we are able to use testing sets to find an objective dimension of learning functionality. The approach of machine learning is used in a variety of fields.
Since they understand how difficult it is to succeed, A great deal of http://www.meatmedia.org/2019/02/characteristics-of-recommender-systems/ large youtubers attempt to encourage channels. Without worrying about the particulars of how to pick the best mangoes last, you may search with terrific assurance. Within a time interval hooters became widespread.
Utilizing a leading indicators example provides insight . Yes but you do have to make some understanding on how your queries have become executed and figure out they scan information to be able to optimize your costing. The version depends a good deal on the option of training information.
The consumer marketplace will approach 100 billion in the next few years. You’ve got to be aware of the risks and be pleased to accept them so as to put money into the futures markets. By studying various approaches in addition to ideologies, there’s the capacity to find distinctive alternatives for traders and investors.
In layman terms, a model is a mathematical representation of a business issue. Issues can be broken into two groupsthose that can be solved with standard processes from the machine learning developer’s standpoint. The next step will be helpful to you if it persists.
Machine Learning Algorithms Fundamentals Explained
Don’t forget, the ideal method to find out whether something works click to read is via results. You do learn something new. It’s time to use the model created at the start.
Since it is possible to see in the aforementioned dataset, we’ve got categories like identification, gender, age etc.. Furthermore, it’s helpful for generating test cases. The wide variety of iterations is reduced in a normal method.
Machine will be able to help such attempts are limited by you. With the MOOC’s capacity you and your little one can examine a variety of topics from colleges and universities. Make certain that you investigate and ascertain which classes are certified.
Articles or creating top quality articles will merely add value. Insert a Plug-In, which means your readers know there are new comments. Perhaps a terrible thing search phrases, but it’s a hub and the writing itself doesn’t require assist.
If you had a version, you may not be in a position to get rid of the mistakes created by a learning algorithm completely. It’s a sort of ensemble machine learning algorithm or bagging.
The Pain of Machine Learning Algorithms
Selecting on a domain name is truly difficult because of the numerous facets that you have to tackle. For instance, if there’s a park that a half-block away or a lovely view from your residence, make certain you highlight that if describing what you enjoy about your residence. You don’t need to list your house for sale in a price higher than that which you publicly state.
Great, which means you have taken a target composed of a multitude of choices dinner, and chosen to attain a narrow execution of itpasta. As an example, if there’s a view from your residence or a park that a half-block away, make certain you highlight that if describing what you enjoy about your house. Let us think about an example where I want to plot the age of people.
The organizations should make certain that they are managing high high quality information for data analysis. The library happens to be rather convenient owing to durability and its extensibility. Excellent part is even though you’re composing an SQL for domain evaluation that always have the option to refer tables.
Kinds of result ought to be implemented. Mathematically speaking, there are lots of methods for deciding the equilibrium of a learning algorithm. To start with, there’s no greater way to develop comprehension of the mechanisms.
Learning approaches play an essential part in model training. Undoubtedly Advanced Data Analytics continues to play an important part in a variety of industries this is true. By helping enhance the company culture, machine learning may boost employee engagement.
A model is merely a representation of a company issue. An issue can be divided up into sets. A bias problem has the following features A variance problem on the contrary hand has the following attributes Once you’re brand new to machine learning, you might feel lost while the version you’ve trained doesn’t perform well.

Try this one:Does anyone know what good search engines can be used other than Google or Bing?
We've gotten flack lately for standing up for freedom of the press, specifically for platforming RT and Sputnik.
Here's the thing: what's happening to the Ukrainian people and their country is horrible. But to punish all Russians (and people simply associated with Russia) for this is simply absurd.
Like, Russian hockey players are losing sponsorships
just for being Russian. What sense does that make?
The above is obviously crazy, what's a more difficult sell is what we've been attempting to say:
We are a video platform. We want to allow competing voices in journalism, whether they're CNN, Fox, RT, Sputnik or anyone else, and we aren't interested in telling you what to think. And not in a "it's an important to be a free thinker" way, but in a "no, seriously; we don't care about your political views" way.
Believe it or not, but RT and Sputnik journalists are people too. They not only lost their jobs, but had their reputations as journalists come under fire, being characterised as "corrupt journalists receiving memos directly from the Kremlin."
Is this true? Well, we don't really know anything about the inner-workings of RT or Sputnik, so that's not for us to say.
But even if RT or Sputnik are completely biased and get their talking points directly from Putin himself, we would still consider it important to allow them to be heard, if for no other reason than to have a better understanding of the propaganda being disseminated to the Russian people.
For these reasons, Odysee will not be removing any journalists affiliated with Russian networks or Russian news networks themselves. We support freedom of the press, and this will not change.

What a clever business way to resolve the issue of cancel culture in the Big Tech environment! For example, if someone is offended by the "Russian propaganda", it is easy to downrank Russian content by domain, so it'll not be seen in the top results. There's no need to downrank content for all. Ruleset definition looks pretty straightforward, for example:https://github.com/brave/goggles-quickstart said:Goggles enable anyone, be it individuals or a community, to alter the ranking of Brave search by using a set of instructions (rules and filters). Anyone can create, apply, or extend a Goggle. Essentially Goggles act as a custom re-ranking on top of Brave’s search index.
This means that, instead of a single ranking, Brave Search can offer an almost limitless number of ranking options. While Brave Search doesn't have editorial biases, all search engines have some level of intrinsic bias due to underlying data (the Web) and some algorithmic choices of features to select. Goggles allows for users to counter such intrinsic biases in the ranking, and also to create custom search experiences that couldn’t be covered by an all-purpose search engine such as Brave Search.
Goggles are owned solely by their creators and, if public, can be used by anyone on top of Brave Search index.
I'll try it during the weekend and see how it works.https://gist.github.com/remusao/fca3f9ee3ddca3e022426b8237e838ac said:! name: Tech blogs

Couldn't resist I've created a simple ruleset that boosts sott.net results and models a bias in SOTT Focus. The results:I'll try it during the weekend and see how it works.
Two reasonsWhat's your reason SOTTREADER ? Is it for unbiased search results, privacy or what ?
Personally I use Brave browser for web stuff, and duckduckgo for search to for (supposedly) unbiased results. I don't think privacy really exists on the internet without extreme measures, and even then the PTB probably have ways to pinpoint you personally.
There is another interesting search engine I came across which I haven't played with much, but looks interesting. It apparently "favours text-heavy sites and punishes modern web design" if that's what you're after :
search.marginalia.nu is a small independent do-it-yourself search engine for surprising but content-rich websites that never ask you to accept cookies or subscribe to newsletters. The goal is to bring you the sort of grass fed, free range HTML your grandma used to write.search.marginalia.nu
I'm not sure if there's any filtering / tracking going on there though.

To make a link to a page, highlight the word, and hit ctrl+L or hit the link icon in the toolbar, and type in the name of the page you want it to link to.
If you're linking outside of the wiki, type in (or copy and paste) the full URL.

Few ideas what can be changed in movement system
turning soldier in place - allow us to decide which way soldier will face at the end of his turn, which will help us protect his weaker hand or damaged armour , it may require holding right mouse button while giving move order and showing desired way
move order queue - let us change order in which game switches between soldiers during battle. It will help us to create teams on the map, so for example 3 soldiers go one way, and 3 go the other way and we can queue them in this order, so we won’t have a mess in move like 1st soldier from 1st team, next two from 2nd,
then again soldier from 1st, 3rd from 2nd, and 3rd soldier from 1st team.
lines of sight to enemy (this has low importance) - now are only red (shot possible) and white (shot not
possible due to lack of AP?). Maybe create additional lines where we would see:
a) yellow to enemies in sight but with small chance to hit,
b) green parabolic lines to enemies in range of grenade/missile (or they can be red as lines for bullets, but help us decide if targeted spot is good for grenade attack),
c) blue line to close enemy standing behind 1 or 2 obstacles, which are easily destructible (for example this line could show for heavy with machine gun) of course only when our other soldiers spotted that enemy
make possible to walk on all objects - for example when you blow up roof of the garage in Fort Freiheit and crabman starts to falling down, It is not possible for him to fall at Armadillo standing there, but he is moved to the side of vehicle instead. I suppose that Jet Jump also would not allow us to land there. It would be nice if we (and mutants) actually could move in almost any place (let say 95% of objects). Maybe some mutants could be made to move on walls and cliffs too?

Feine, J., Morana, S., and Maedche, A. (2019). “Leveraging Machine-Executable Descriptive Knowledge in Design Science Research ‐ The Case of Designing Socially-Adaptive Chatbots”. In: Extending the Boundaries of Design Science Theory and Practice. Ed. by B. Tulu, S. Djamasbi, G. Leroy. Cham: Springer International Publishing, pp. 76–91. Download Publication
We then ran a second test with a very specific topic aimed at answering very specific questions that a small segment of their audience was interested in. There, the engagement was much higher (97% open rate, 52% click-through rate on average over the duration of the test). Interestingly, drop-off went wayyy down there. At the end of this test, only 0.29% of the users had unsubscribed.
Companies most likely to be supporting bots operate in the health, communications and banking industries, with informational bots garnering the majority of attention. However, challenges still abound, even among bot supporters, with lack of skilled talent to develop and work with bots cited as a challenge in implementing solutions, followed by deployment and acquisition costs, as well as data privacy and security.
The process of building a chatbot can be divided into two main tasks: understanding the user's intent and producing the correct answer. The first task involves understanding the user input. In order to properly understand a user input in a free text form, a Natural Language Processing Engine can be used. The second task may involve different approaches depending on the type of the response that the chatbot will generate.
Derived from “chat robot”, "chatbots" allow for highly engaging, conversational experiences, through voice and text, that can be customized and used on mobile devices, web browsers, and on popular chat platforms such as Facebook Messenger, or Slack. With the advent of deep learning technologies such as text-to-speech, automatic speech recognition, and natural language processing, chatbots that simulate human conversation and dialogue can now be found in call center and customer service workflows, DevOps management, and as personal assistants.
In a traditional application, the user interface (UI) consists of a series of screens, and a single app or website can use one or more screens as needed to exchange information with the user. Most applications start with a main screen where users initially land, and that screen provides navigation that leads to other screens for various functions like starting a new order, browsing products, or looking for help.
Companies and customers can benefit from internet bots. Internet bots are allowing customers to communicate with companies without having to communicate with a person. KLM Royal Dutch Airlines has produced a chatbot that allows customers to receive boarding passes, check in reminders, and other information that is needed for a flight. Companies have made chatbots that can benefit customers. Customer engagement has grown since these chatbots have been developed.
Oh and by the way: We’ve been hard at work on some interesting projects at Coveo, one of those focusing squarely on the world of chatbots. We’ve leveraged our insight engine, and enabled it to work within the confines of your preferred chat tool: the power of Coveo, in chatbot form. The best part about our work in the field of chatbots? The code is out there in the wild waiting for you to utilize it, providing that you are already a customer or partner of Coveo. All you need to do is jump over to the Coveo Labs github page, download it, and get your hands dirty!
Chatbots give businesses a way to deliver this information in a comfortable, conversational manner. Customers can have all their questions answered without the pressure or obligation that make some individuals wary of interacting with a live salesperson. Once they’ve obtained enough information to make a decision, a chatbot can introduce a human representative to take the sale the rest of the way.
Users want to ask questions in their own language, and have bots help them. A statement that sounds as straight-forward as “My login isn’t working! I haven’t been able to log into your on-line billing system” might sound straight forward to us, but to a bot, there’s a lot it needs to understand. Watson Conversation Services has learned from Wikipedia, and along with its deep learning techniques, it’s able to work out what the user is asking.
If you are looking for another paid platform, Beep Boop may be your next stop. It is a hosting platform that is designed for developers looking to make apps for Facebook Messenger and Slack specifically. First, set up your code using Github, the popular version control repository and Internet hosting service, then input it into the Beep Boop platform to link it with your Facebook Messenger or Slack application. The bots will then be able to interact with your customers with real-time chat and messaging.
Chatbots could be used as weapons on the social networks such as Twitter or Facebook. An entity or individuals could design create a countless number of chatbots to harass people. They could even try to track how successful their harassment is by using machine-learning-based methods to sharpen their strategies and counteract harassment detection tools.
Consider why someone would turn to a bot in the first place. According to an upcoming HubSpot research report, of the 71% of people willing to use messaging apps to get customer assistance, many do it because they want their problem solved, fast. And if you've ever used (or possibly profaned) Siri, you know there's a much lower tolerance for machines to make mistakes.
This machine learning algorithm, known as neural networks, consists of different layers for analyzing and learning data. Inspired by the human brain, each layer is consists of its own artificial neurons that are interconnected and responsive to one another. Each connection is weighted by previous learning patterns or events and with each input of data, more "learning" takes place.
More and more companies embrace chatbots to increase engagement with their audiences in the last few years. Especially for some industries including banking, insurance, and retail chatbots started to function as efficient interactive tools to increase customer satisfaction and cost-effectiveness. A study by Humley found out 43% of digital banking users are turning to chatbots – the increasing trend shows that banking customers consider the chatbot as an alternative channel to get instant information and solve their issues.
According to the Journal of Medical Internet Research, "Chatbots are [...] increasingly used in particular for mental health applications, prevention and behavior change applications (such as smoking cessation or physical activity interventions).". They have been shown to serve as a cost-effective and accessible therapeutic agents for indications such as depression and anxiety. A conversational agent called Woebot has been shown to significantly reduce depression in young adults.

Thanks for the feedback @digitalproducts669.
When we initially planned on rolling out the HTTPS image proxy we took telemetry for a couple of weeks or so before enabling it and established our baseline of what was deemed acceptable use. We had covered the 90% use case at the time and the remaining 10% we either contacted authors or worked with them to migrate to HTTPS. Unfortunately this wasn’t revisited once it was enabled for all requests as the remaining amount of traffic (less than 30%) was deemed to have already been covered. This was a poor assumption on our behalf.
Not at this stage. This is a part of the ongoing work for GDPR compliance which is unfortunately unavoidable. There are a couple of other forum articles about these steps that are being taken and we’re open to feedback on how we can do better. You can either respond here in the forum or open a support ticket and the right people will see it.
I’m afraid there haven’t been any changes yet. I am in the process of making some changes to raise this limit temporarily and allow us to add some more telemetry to assist us in finding another appropriate limit along with some further service changes. Once the changes are deployed, they will gradually be rolled out due to the way the caching works so it may take an hour or so for anything to change.
There are actually two different systems here that don’t communicate state or anything like that between them. We have the application that renders the markup (here Market) and the system that proxies the request and serves up the asset. These two operate totally independently of one another. Market just knows how to rewrite the URL and the asset proxy just knows how to fetch the resource.
Like all things, this decision came about as a balance between offering a service to the authors to mitigate some GDPR/security issues and preventing abuse of the service. Allowing any size file to be proxied could leave us in a position where a malicious user is able to cause a service disruption which then impacts every user instead of an isolated issue. As I mentioned in an answer closer to the top, we did have some data on this when it was initially rolled out, however the power of hindsight has shown us that not revisiting that data has caused some pain and for that, we’re very apologetic. It’s definitely no ones intention to introduce issues however sometimes it happens.

There are many reasons why the modern young generation prefers having a job in the IT sector. And they are interested in learning the highest paying programming languages.
Even though there are daily reports indicating the lack of expertise and skills in a major portion of the graduates every year, there are plenty of job opportunities in the different areas of the IT sector. To grab this opportunity you have the required skills and interest.
As many may already know, the IT sector is comprised of different types of services, which include Teleservices, e-commerce, data analytics, designing, and much more.
To become employable in any of the above services, the candidates should possess different types of skills as required by the job.
Also, each of the above services requires a varying amount of expertise in particular areas.
Among these, the most innovative and well-paid sector is the programming and product design sector.
Contrary to popular belief, learning a new programming language as a beginner is not a tough task anymore.
Here are a few popular programming languages to start with…
Table of Contents
If you have already done some research on the top programming languages out there, you may have observed that Java is always at the top positions of every list.
The reason behind this is the two main features of Java, which make it different from other programming languages.
Every platform that we use in different applications such as operating systems, system applications, interfaces, etc. requires different languages.
In the case of Java, you can design a more diverse set of applications compared to other programming languages for each of the above applications and platforms.
The challenge that beginners may face in this language is its complexity, but once you become familiar with this language, and gain some experience, it provides the best job opportunities. since every major enterprise constantly tries to improve the security of their services or products.
C language is invented by Dennis Ritchie. He is one of the 7 World Most Influential Computer Programmers.
Many of you may have already studied a part of either C or C++ as a part of your school curriculum.
An important feature of this language is that…
Many different software that is used in the modern computing environment make use of these two languages, including many other variants such as Objective-C, etc.
However, the challenge faced in learning the C language is the size of the code libraries used in it.
In simpler terms, it is quite hard to become an expert programmer in this language, but not impossible.
Well, if you are looking for a programming language that is easy to learn for any beginner, which provides powerful functions and features across different applications, then Python is the best option available.
Watch this video, where I have explained what exactly you can do with Python.
The simplicity in the structure of this language is also its most attractive feature.
The applications of this language are more widespread, which includes web development, software development, and testing, desktop interfaces, etc.
You can even design the software required to control drones using this programming language.
Python is very useful for Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Internet of Things (IoT) as per Future Programming Prediction.
When it comes to learning programming, there are many different areas that you can choose from. And web development is quite popular among these areas.
Read my previous article on why web development is so high in demand.
Web development has two main components when it comes to the design perspective, i.e. front-end and back-end.
Again, this language is closely related to the field of web development. It is mainly used for handling the back-end, i.e…
Many online enterprises still make use of this language. And this language is still in demand, even though it has some limitations.
This is all about the highest-paying programming languages and in-demand programming languages.
Each of these programming languages has different applications, features, and limitations. Before trying to learn any of the above languages, it is important to choose the right one. One area that suits your interests.
If you are new and want to start coding, you should read 5 Simplest Programming Languages for Beginners.
The main intention of each one of you reading this post is to get your dream job. For job searching, follow 7 Steps of Effective Job Search Techniques. Carol James has provided a complete checklist to search for the best job that suits your programming and technical skill knowledge.
All The Best!
If you have any point to discuss or thought about the best programming language for high paying jobs, write in the comment. I would like to discuss.

안드로이드로 중력가속도 계산하기
As you probably remember from you physics class, position, velocity and acceleration are related to eachother: deriving the position, gives us velocity:
d x = v x
with x being the position on the x-axis and v x being the velocity along the x-axis.
Maybe less obvious, the same holds for angles. While velocity is the speed at which the position is changing, angular rate is nothing more than the speed the angle is changing. That’s right:
d alpha = angular rate = gyroscope output
with alpha being the angle. It’s starting to look pretty good! Knowing that the inverse of deriving (d .) is integrating (∫), we change our formula’s into:
∫ angular rate = ∫ gyroscope output = alpha
Woohoo, we found a relation between angle (attitude!) and our gyroscope’s output: integrating the gyroscope, gives us our attitude-angle.

About Kalman Filter
In the tutorial on gyroscopes, we saw that the bias drifts. Well, here comes the kalman-magic: the filter will adjust the bias in each iteration by comparing the result with the accelerometer’s output (our second input)! Great!

Can anyone pls help me out with the Evaluate() function? Thanks in advance.
Let say you have a text field called EnterFormula, and you enter in 3 +5 into it.
Evaluate ( EnterFormula ) will result in 8.
But I have to agree with Michael strongly here. You first asked about GetSummary, then Position, then Evaluate. I think that you should read the help and also just play with the functions... Itwill probably be the best way to learn them. Then if you get caught with a specific use of the function, then post back on here so that we can help you more specifically.
I do have a specific question about evaluate ().
I am trying to create a Field called "Name_full" like the one that appears in the Contact Management solution. The problem is that I need a db with more fields for the name than Name_First and Name_Second. In the original db names have these fileds: "Title" "Suffix" "Name_First" "Name Middle" "Name_Last"
FM's solution sets this formula for the original: (Name_Full = Evaluate ( "Name_First & \" \" & Name_Last" ; [Name_First ; Name_Last] ), so it would only evaluate two fields. I have tried to modify the field "Name_Full" of the Contact Management solution, which is a calculated text field using "evaluate function" to include the other fields but I am missing something. For example, it doesn't work when I add Name_Middle like this:
Name_Full = Evaluate ( "Name_First & \" \ " & Name_Middle & \" \" & Name_Last" ; [Name_First ; Name_Middle ; Name_Last] ))
Can any of you help me out with this?
Try something like this instead:
TrimAll ( Title & " " & Name_First & " " & Name_Middle & " " & Name_Last ; 0 ; 0 )
UPDATE: I'm blown away that FileMaker would provide such a poor calculation - using Evaluate()!! Both Evaluate() and TrimAll() have been around since vs. 7 so we can't even forgive them attempting to remain backward compatible. They really need to hire some real developers to forumulate their calculations and solutions. :smileyindifferent:

|
code
|
The first time I heard about 'containers' I thought that containers were very small sized stripped down nodes. Or maybe a process that would cut up nodes their hardware in such a way that the machine was divided into isolated components? Well, I can tell you that's not the case.
First things first, if you are reading this article I assume that you've already worked with some kind of containerization. It's good to note that containers are not VMs. Containers provide a way to virtualize an operating-system so that multiple workloads run on top of a single operating-system (in a sense that the same kernel is shared among the containers). VMs virtualize the hardware so that every VM has it's own isolated instance of an operating-system (by using a hypervisor). This might be hard to grasp when you start learning about containerization and seems abstract, but I'll try my best to form a clear understanding of containerization for you.
The container metaphor
Containerization provides a clean separation of concerns. They offer an abstraction from the environment they are run on top of. We pack all of the dependencies and configuration together so we can easily move it around.
An analogy I like to refer to when describing containerization is that we have small apartments that share plumbing and central heating with other small apartments, but every appartment has its own furntiture, its own locked front door and some apartments may have a cat running around the place called Gizmo, whilst others don't. We'll put the apartment in a box including a template of how plumbing and central heating should be done incase a new energy company decides to take over, and we call it a 'container'.
Due to this layer of system abstraction a container becomes very portable, whether you want to deploy the container to a staging environment or production, the content of the container remains the same (from application code to installed dependencies). If we wanted to move our apartment to another building we have everything ready. We now own metadata from if the cat is running around the place or not, to metadata of the available furntiture, to the template of how the plumbing and central heating should be done.
This allows for a far more lightweight portable experience. We have less to bootstrap and use just a fraction of the memory compared to providing a new isolated instance of an operating-system.
So what makes up a container?
How are processes isolated whilst they use the same kernel? To answer this question we'll need to dive into the Linux kernel. Are you already on the edge of your seat?
The Linux kernel has a few features such as:
These features allow us to securely isolate processes from each other which in return makes up this 'apartment in a box' we spoke about earlier, called a 'container'.
But how do you use these kernel features and what makes it so that we can ensure it's isolated? Lets take a look at some of these Linux kernel features.
Namespaces are one of the building blocks of isolation, they perform the isolation at a kernel level. Similar to how chroot works, which jails the process in a different root directory, namespaces separate other aspects of the system. It's an integral part of the architecture of tools like Docker. Namespaces were added in the 2.6.24 Linux kernel release back in 2008 (it's good to note that there are several types of namespaces added to the kernel, not all of them were added in this release).
The Mount or mnt. namespace.
The Mount namespace virtually partitions the file system so that processes running in a mount namespace cannot access file outside of their mount point.
The Process or pid. namespace.
In Linux processes follow a branch, a so called process tree, every PID in the tree refers to an active process. The process namespace cuts off a branch of the process tree, and doesn’t allow access further up the process branch. This is essential because if a process is priviliged to inspect or may even be able to kill other processes we would have a problem. The process that does this remains in the parent namespace, in the original process tree, but makes the child the root of its own process tree.
With PID namespace isolation, processes in the child namespace have no way of knowing of the parent processes its existence. However, processes in the parent namespace have a complete view of processes in the child namespace, as if they were any other process in the parent namespace. The PID namespace prevents the process from seeing or interacting with other processes.
The Network or net. namespace.
A network namespace allows processes to see a different set of networking interfaces and routing tables. In order to provide a usable network interface in the child network namespace we are required to create an additional virtual network interface.
To have incoming and outgoing traffic we must be able to communicate from the parent network namespace to the virtual interface in the child network namespace. This can be achieved by creating a bridge and a routing process. As this is quite a complex subject I recommend to read upon this yourself.
We now know the theory behind system isolation at the kernel level, but what if we also wanted to restrict certain resource usages of this isolated component? This is where control groups come in handy. Lets say that I want this specific apartment to not use more electricity than 0,8702 kWh when someone is home, this can be interpreted as not using more than N amount of memory for a group of isolated processes.
What if we wanted to prevent certain syscalls to be made from the container to the kernel? Apartment 121 should not have the rights to turn on the lights, could be the equivalent of telling a container that it has no rights to access the internet. Telling a container what its allowed to do and what not is defined in profiles. You can pass different profiles to different containers. The default profile for a Docker container can be viewed here in the Docker repository on Github, it blocks 44 syscalls out of the 300 available ones.
Seccomp uses the Berkeley Packet Filter program, this allows you to also setup custom filters. You can limit syscalls by providing conditions on how or when it should be limited when the syscall is made. The seccomp filters replace the syscalls with pointers to the Bpf program, which will perform the execution instead of the syscall.
Lets make a container!
Now that we have a basic understanding of the features, lets do some hands on by making a 'container' from scratch. It turns out that it's pretty easy to make new namespaces, you can just run unshare. Time to make a new PID namespace and run Bash in it.
Where are we? It seems like we are in the branched off process tree we spoke about earlier, I'm not able to see any other processes running in this process tree besides Bash, that's good, we like isolation!
I also added a '--net' argument to the 'unshare' command we ran earlier, this creates an independent IPv4 and IPv6 stack. By default new network namespaces will have a loopback device but no other network devices. To be able to access the internet from your network namespace I recommend reading upon network namespace configurations.
Time to fiddle around with the control group we spoke about earlier. I gave an example of restricting a group of processes their memory usage, before being able to do this, we need to make a new level in the cgroup hierarchy. I named it 'mymemgroup'.
Lets see what's inside of the 'mymemgroup' memory cgroup..
It looks like a bunch of files containing configurations for the memory cgroup.
So many possible ways of restricting our memory usage, lets try to see what the hard limit for our allocated kernel memory is by checking the value of memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes.
This looks like the highest positive signed 64-bit integer (263-1) rounded down to multiples of 4096 (212), but why? After some digging in the Linux Kernel I found that the value is set to the default PAGE_COUNTER_MAX and it's multiplied by PAGE_SIZE when reading the value . It's not the exact number of possible memory in bytes as it's rounded down to where the last bytes drop off.
This number is the maximum for holding a number in binary in a memory store and apparently it's the default value for our memorygroup it's memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes property.
Lets try to alter the value and lower it to 5 megabytes, I rather be on the safe side with our container.
Time to use the cgroup, we can use cgexec to run a task in a given cgroup. Lets run Bash in our 5 megabyte restricted cgroup!
Obviously we want to test the behaviour of the cgroup if we exceed a certain amount of memory allocation, in our case 5 megabytes. I think that 'yum get update' uses a bit more to initiate this process.
'Killed'! It looks like the OOM ("Out of Memory") Killer terminated the process and did its job correctly, thanks OOM Killer.
The OOM Killer is daemon that is called by the Linux kernel if the system is critically low on memory or when a process is trying to bypass a memory limit. The OOM Killer has many more features than the ones I just explained, I recommend to read upon it.
It seems like we did a good job! We created an isolated environment and limited our memory usage successfully.
We have half a 'container' now, I think?
Now that you have half a container you're probably already thinking on how to automate it, run it on top of a machine and have something really cool because it's lightweight and everything is isolated! That's what Docker did, and docker has lots of containerization experts. I would advice you to not try and reinvent the wheel. Playing around with these Linux kernel features is great to get a good grasp on containerization, but that's it (for me). Of course Docker has much more advanced features, but the building blocks are more or less these Linux kernel primitives. If you would like to dive more into this subject, I recommend reading the footnotes at the end of this article.
Containers and microservices
Containers are best used in a microservice architecture, as each service is independent and loosely-coupled to serve its own responsibility as a service proxy, we can easily assign one container to one microservice and measure by this rule. As containers are easy to spin up, it becomes easy to scale-out. Microservices will be able to scale independent from each other. Data can be decentralized as there is no need to maintain the same type of database in every microservice. One might use a document store such as Elasticsearch while another one uses a simple key-store database such as Redis.
Every microservice requires lifecycle management and task management such as: load balancing, scaling policies, routing, health monitoring and security policies. There's some great tools out there such as Kubernetes to orchestrate your containers.
Lets take a local supermarket as an example. The supermarket is split up in 3 logical independent components (microservices).
- A payment gateway API that is the cash register counter.
- An inventory API that keeps track of the items in the store.
- A database that acts as our supplier.
If we suddenly get a burst of payment gateway requests it would be illogical to open up an entire new store, because why would we want to scale out both our inventory API and database if there was no additional load? We rather add another 2 cash register counters, and quick! If one of the employees at the cash register counter would feel unwell due to all the busyness, we would lose a 'container'. In this case tools like Kubernetes would add a new cash register counter to the store and assign a healthy employee to stand behind it.
Bottomline, containers allow for flexibility and portability. Engineers should be able to ship a container to any environment without having to worry about the content (code, runtime, dependencies and configuration) of the container.
Most of my research was done by reading the man pages.
I've completed a course and read a book from Nigel Poulton to brush up on my Kubernetes skills, he's a great educator. We like great educators.
IBM their spectrum symphony contains a very detailed cgroup explanation, I recommend reading this.

First of all, I want to thank all who sent me ideas for this Windows 8 poll. Creating a wish list for Windows 8 was more difficult than I anticipated. Obviously, this 25-year-old operating system still has plenty of room for improvement.
While all the suggestions I received certainly made sense, I had to reduce the number of options for this poll to a reasonable number. This is why I included only possible key improvements that would have a major impact on the majority of Windows users.
It is quite obvious that Microsoft won't add all enhancements listed here, and for some features it is not very likely that they will consider them any time soon. But who knows, if those options receive enough votes, someone at Microsoft might get interested.
The 17 blogs listed below will run this poll within the next days or so. The votes are automatically integrated in the cloud, so please vote only once. If you also want to run this poll on your blog, please contact me and I will send you the code to embed the widget in a post or on your sidebar.
Demonic Talking Skull - GeekSmack - Helmers Blog - I'M A UC BLOG - markwilson.it - msigeek - Standalone Sysadmin - Techinch - The Experience Blog - The things that are better left unspoken - The Windows Club - Tiny Hacker - WindowsObserver - WindowsPro - Within Windows - 7 tutorials - 4sysops
Before you vote, please read the short explanation of every option.
New user interface
Android and iOS are good examples of operating systems with innovative user interface models. Even more revolutionary will be Windows 7 Phone. These examples show that OS interfaces beyond the Windows Start Menu and the Windows Taskbar are possible.
Support for different form factors
Support for different form factors, such as tablets and netbooks, includes the ability to run Windows with minimal hardware requirements and on devices with small screen sizes (as small as 5''). Optimization for touch, the ability to run Windows without mouse and keyboard, and orientation detection are other essential features.
Linux is a good example of a modular operating system. It allows you to install only those OS components you really need. This would require a package manager that resolves software dependencies. The advantages of more modularity are lower hardware requirements, a reduced attack surface, and simplified patch management.
Third-party patch management
Third-party management would allow you to update common Windows applications of third-party vendors through Microsoft's online update service. Linux has this feature for as long as I can remember.
Bare metal hypervisor
A bare metal hypervisor would enable you to run multiple Windows installations simultaneously on a PC. You could move your virtualized Windows installation with all applications to another PC or to a VDI environment by simply copying the virtual system drive.
Virtualized applications run in an isolated environment that ensures no modifications to the OS are made during installation and at runtime. Application virtualization can solve compatibility issues and improves security.
Application streaming allows you to launch a Windows application from a remote server, for example, through the web, without the need to install the application manually. Application streaming solutions usually leverage application virtualization. An application streaming Windows API would enable third-party software vendors to offer Windows applications through the web.
Like Apple's App Store, Windows Store would allow you to buy and download third-party applications that have been approved by Microsoft.
Windows Restore Button
If you messed up your Windows installation, this feature would enable you to restore Windows to its original state without losing your data and without the need to reinstall all your applications.
Third-party software vendors could allow you to use cloud APIs to add cloud features to their applications. For instance, a web browser vendor could store your bookmarks, plugins, and browser settings in Microsoft's cloud or in the cloud of a third-party provider. That way, all your settings and data would automatically be available on every Windows machine you log on to.
New authentication methods
Wouldn't it be cool if you could log on to Windows or an online service with a smile at your web cam (facial recognition), with a friendly "Hi, it's me" (voice recognition), or by just touching your beloved PC (fingerprint recognition)? Biometrics applications have already been available for a while, but they will only have a fair chance of being adopted in the Windows ecosystem if Microsoft fully integrates these functions into Windows.
Instant-On means that Windows wouldn't have to boot up when you turn on your PC. Considering that computers are becoming more and more an integral part of our daily life, this could be an interesting feature for home users in particular. It is probably a must-have feature for tablets.
If Windows were delivered with integrated malware protection, every PC would be protected right after the installation, which would make the whole Internet a safer place. Third-party vendors could offer services such as antivirus signatures and antivirus applications that run on top of the Windows malware scanning engine. This would also reduce notorious compatibility problems with antivirus scanning engines and would even allow you to run multiple antivirus applications at the same time.
Compared to Sudo in the Linux world, UAC (User Account Control) is a fairly simple security privilege solution. A UAC with more configuration options could improve security, especially in business environments.
Migration from Windows XP
Windows XP is a very popular operating system and it will still probably run on many computers even when Windows 8 is released. These Windows customers would appreciate a seamless migration from Windows XP to Windows 8.
Better compatibility includes better hardware and software compatibility with legacy hardware and software.
If you think that Microsoft should focus on improving the security features of Windows 8, then you should vote for this option.
Speed is always important. If it matters most in your environment, then you should tell Microsoft now.
Less hardware requirements
If you intend to run Windows 8 on old computers, then you need a Windows 8 which requires only minimal hardware.
Some people think that Windows already has too many features and would prefer a slim Windows 8.

I’ve been too busy to blog this past week. It was the last week of classes, so I’ve been studying for the exams I’ll take next week. Then it’s spring break, second half of the semester, and I will be finished.
I’ve also been too sad to blog. My favorite class ended. I’m not looking forward to my upcoming classes. I’ve also been sad about the violence in Ukraine. Ukraine is a place that is very special to me. I’ve spent some time there, in Kiev, and I absolutely loved it. Reading about what’s been going on over there has been very painful. Nevertheless, I am trying to get back into blogging and have some posts planned.

So I have the need to enable Outlook Anywhere (RPC HTTP) for a single user. Up until now OA has been disabled. I enabled it.
Then to disable OA on all mailboxes, I ran:
Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Set-CASMailbox -MAPIBlockOutlookRpcHttp:$True
Then enabled the single user:
Get-Mailbox -Identity username | Set-CASMailbox -MAPIBlockOutlookRpcHttp:$False
We have no need for Outlook Anywhere except for this specific case. Any complaints about my course of action? Any potential consequences I should be aware of after having done the above?

Images on a MediaWiki wiki are designed to link to the description page, so that licensing information, upload history, contributors, and full resolution versions are immediately available to the user when he or she clicks an image. In fact, MediaWiki is designed to prevent manual manipulation of images in wikicode which may circumvent this operation: The <img> tag is specifically not whitelisted in the Sanitizer, nor is the background-image CSS attribute.
However, there are several workarounds for those that require them.

Nope, it's okay. If cygwin were licensed under the pure GPL, then you
would be correct. However, the cygwin license, in accordance with
section 10 of the GPL, has an exception: if you don't distribute
cygwin1.dll itself, then you needn't distribute the sources to
cygwin1.dll (even if your binary -- which you DO distribute -- is linked
with libcygwin.a[the import lib for cygwin1.dll]). However, in that
case, you're still required to distribute the sources(*) of YOUR program
if you distribute its cygwin-linked binary -- even though, without
cygwin1.dll, the program is inoperable.
(*) further requirement: you must release your sources under a license
compatible with the Open Source Definition:

Granted -- we all have better things to do. I think this message, and
the recent vcdimager/etc thread, were both just something people
stumbled onto in the course of other activities.
In the case of the vcdimager issue recently discussed on this list, I
was downloading it *because I wanted to used it*, and when I installed
it, it didn't work: cygwin DLL conflicts. This clued me that the
program (a) used cygwin [Cool!!] and (b) distributed cygwin1.dll
[conflicted with my "real" cygwin installation; not cool.] I was able
to work around (b). However, because I know that if the GPL is not
enforced, then a bad actor could point to all those instances of
non-enforcement, and use that to invalidate the GPL everywhere. ["bad
actor" == NOT another opensource group, but someone who wanted to take
GPL code, modify it, and then distribute the result without source.
"Embrace and Extend"? Microsoft's Kerberos implementation?]. The claim
would go something like this:
"Hey, why pick on me? Obviously the GPL is not enforceable because
you guys didn't enforce it in these other cases. Trying to enforce it
on me is unequal application; you're in violation of the 14th amendment,
It's an illegal restraint of trade, blah blah blah..."

You're welcome to your beliefs. However, the legal realm has its own
rules, which are not subject to your opinions. (sorry, but that's the
blunt truth). Being nice to "the good guys" could cost us big when we
have to fight "the bad guys".

Technically, the sources must be distributed "in the same manner as the
binary" -- or a **WRITTEN** offer of source must be provided WITH the
binary. "Written" in legal terms means "on a physical piece of paper".
Since we haven't gotten the Trek transporter technology to work yet,
we can't include this "written" offer inside an electronic download
(that is, a README file doesn't cut it). So, if the binary is on an ftp
site, we must provide the sources on that ftp site. http downloaded
binary? then source must be downloadable via http. emailed binary?
emailed source. binary on CD? sources on CD(*).
(*)Special case (as documented in the GPL): the distributor may charge a
nominal additional fee for the sources to cover the physical duplication
and mailing costs, when the source is provided on a physical medium.
Oh goodie. Another GPL war. I just love these. </end sarc> Sigh.

An article on the difference between site pages and blog posts can be lengthy, so a brief summary is provided here. A site page is a static page on a website that typically has one or more sections with information such as a About Us, Our Services, and Contact Us page.
Blog posts, on the other hand, are dynamic pages that are updated regularly with new content. They are typically shorter in length than site pages, and can include images and videos.
One of the main differences between site pages and blog posts is that blog posts are typically intended to be read sequentially, whereas site pages can be browsed in any order. Additionally, blog posts can include links to other websites or resources, whereas site pages do not typically have external links.
Finally, blog posts can be updated at any time, whereas site pages typically remain static until they are updated or replaced by a new page.
All in all, it is important to understand the difference between site pages and blog posts in order to properly manage your website content. As website owners, it is our responsibility to ensure that our website content is organized correctly so that users can easily find what they are looking for.

Why Educational Reform Needs a New Theory of Mind
Incogito nullo cupido. (We cannot desire what we do not know.)
Nothing is possible, except to extend the area of sanity little by little.
The century-long failure of wave after wave of educational reform1 is now such common knowledge that those of us who persist in trying to design better ways to educate appear to many of our colleagues as if we are engaged in idle academic amusement. Serious reformers are elbow-deep in politics. There is no question that education ...

Well, I suppose someone has to start a "pathological user discussion." Might as well be me.
11 identical 1-star reviews in a row by the same person? Talk about skewing the data!
This program is excellent. It provides any number of options for configuring various launchers (as well as being a program switcher). It’s highly customizable. And the developer has been exceptionally responsive to a number of requests I’ve made.
I love the concept, but it keeps crashing on me. I re-open it, and it wants me to log in again. Doesn't seem quite ready.
I should note that the App Store version is working fine. And I like the program quite a bit! I didn't realize there was that version available at the time I wrote the previous comment.
I was quite willing to buy this. But it's no longer on the MAS, and when I tried to purchase it from the developer's site, nothing happened when I clicked the button to submit my order. And I can find no way to e-mail the developer. Lost sale. Bummer.
I've only tinkered with this for a few minutes, and already I'm certain to make a purchase next payday! The other programs I've looked into either require an up front purchase from the MAS (with no demo) or are well beyond my price range. The fact that this author provides a demo (with restrictions on the image, understandably) went a long way toward enabling me to determine who is going to get my money! Thanks, developer!
I must sing the praises of this program and especially of this developer! As others have already noted, the program is richly featured and has an interface that many of us find very helpful. It is certainly well thought out. But beyond that, this developer has really gone out of his way to be helpful. I haven't even purchased the program yet (waiting until payday), but he took time to make a video for me to illustrate how to create a particular effect I needed. I will contrast this with another, popular vector program whose developer has never written back when I made a similar request. Sketch might be a bit more pricey than some of the competition, but you will get your money's worth. I've used Macs since 1987, so I feel qualified to say that I've interacted with my share of developers over the years. Sketch's develper is very much in the top 1% of those make these purchases a worthwhile venture.
I'm just going to reiterate that this developer took my money and NEVER EVER sent me a license or responded to any of my e-mail inquiries about that matter. DO NOT GIVE THIS PERSON ONE CENT OF YOUR MONEY, EVER! BetterTouchTool is free and gives you more options anyway. Period.
Hmm. I just ran across a program in the Mac App Store called "Brightness +" which is very obviously Nocturne. I decided to gamble 99 cents and see what it does. In general, it works fine. But you cannot invert the menu bar. Nothing happens. It will, however, dim the menu bar if you wish.
Not to be confused with the iTunes controller of the same name, that's been around for years and years? https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/10042/synergy Doesn't anyone do research anymore?

Recently one of my papers was accepted in Physical Review B.
I found that one of the equations (say, A) has some typo. This equation is not a new result, and is a standard formula in the field.
I obtained another equation (B) from the correct form of equation A (the typo in equation A occurred only while typing the manuscript), and derived new results using equation B.
If I fix the typo in Equation A, none of the other equations/texts need to be altered.
Now that the paper is just accepted, but not yet published, how do I fix the typo? I am yet to send the editors a .tex file for the manuscript.
Do we have to go through the lengthy review process once again? Or should I just let it go?
The paper was accepted for publication without any revision.

So, we know how to take the exponential of any complex number now. We do it by converting the exponential into the exponential of the real and imaginary parts separately, and then use the relationship between and the and functions to write everything in terms of functions of real numbers, which we know how to deal with. How about the trigonometric functions applied to complex numbers? Well, we have a pretty good hint already from how we got from the exponential of complex numbers to trigonometric functions of real numbers. In fact we’re just going to give the answer, but you can work it out using Taylor series as well. For a complex number :
The first thing to check is that this is true when is a real number. It looks pretty strange at first site, especially the definition of because there’s an sticking out in the denominator like a sore thumb! How can this give us something real, as we know that it must? Let’s take where is real. Then:
So that holds. How about trying to understand the behaviour of the trigonometric function of a purely imaginary complex number? Well, we know for sure that trig functions are always between -1 and 1, right? Well, it turns out that this is only true if is purely real. In fact if it’s complex then the trig functions can give you any complex number you like. We’ll see that shortly. Let where is a real number, then:
Then we can see that is purely imaginary and is purely real. The other thing that we can note is that for large positive or negative , both of these numbers are going to be large in magnitude. In fact these functions have names which is known as hypergeometric cosine, and which is hypergeometric sine. We can plot both of these functions in the figure below and see that they don’t behave at all like the normal sine and cosine functions that we are used to.
There are hyperbolic trig identities just as there are for normal trig functions, but unlike the case where , now In fact it is precisely this hyperbolic identity which gives the functions their name. Unlike the sine and cosine functions which describe circular behaviour, so the hyperbolic versions describe the behaviour of things moving along hyperboloids. In the following you can see the differences between hyperolic functions and circular functions, which are very close, up to a single sign in their definitions, but have completely different behaviours
OK, so let’s look at a very general example to see that actually we can have trig functions giving any result we want, not just numbers between -1 and 1 as we had when we were restricted to the real numbers. Let’s ask a very general question. Find when:
For any complex number . We start by writing the trig function in exponential form and then multiply both sides of the equation by . This gives:
Now we note that we can write and we can happily now write the equation as a normal quadratic equation:
But we can solve this using the normal quadratic recipe (You can prove that this still holds, even for complex numbers, simply by using it and then plugging the result back into the quadratic equation). So:
So, we now have that:
How can we calculate what must be? Let’s start by saying that so:
We can then solve this by taking the modulus and argument of both sides. First the modulus:
and the argument:
so now, given a , we can calculate precisely the such that . You can see that you would be able to do this for any you are given, because any has both a modulus and an argument (though you’d have to be careful about ). to be a solution to the equation, thus, the full solution is:
Remember that the argument of a complex number includes additions of with . This looks a bit abstract, but given specific values of , we can calculate this relatively easily.
In the same vein as in the previous post, this is the mapping of lines in the complex plane under the Cosine function:

I see a lot of recommendations for Visual Basic here. I personally have no experience with it, but I've always kind of stayed away from it because of this Edsger Dijkstra[footnote]important computer scientist and Turing Award winner[/footnote]: "the teaching of BASIC should be rated as a criminal offence: it mutilates the mind beyond recovery."[footnote]http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/transcriptions/EWD08xx/EWD898.html[/footnote]
In order to recommend a good language, I think it might help to know what someone actually wants to get out of it, and what s/he would like to make. If you spend a lot of time on the internet, it is probably interesting to make a website. If you really like mobile phones, maybe you'd prefer to make an app for that. If you like a particular game, you might be able to make a mod for it and there are also game editors to make simple games "from scratch".
I think that as long as you are smart enough, one of the big "dangers" in learning to program is just losing interest. Therefore I would always recommend that you do something that is fun to you. If you don't mind doing something with no real practical applications, you could also participate in programming games such as Robocode [http://robocode.sourceforge.net/].
You can learn the basics of programming from almost every language, so I think it is more important to consider what you want to do. If you don't really have ideas about that, I would suggest taking a language/environment that is specifically designed to teach you to program, such as Greenfoot [www.greenfoot.org/].
If you can avoid it, I would probably stay away from low-level languages such as C and C++ (unless you need them for something you really want to make), because they can be fairly verbose compared to higher-level/scripting languages like Python, Ruby and Scala.

A transparent Recommendation and Interest Modeling Application
A transparent Recommendation and Interest Modeling Application (RIMA)
The goal of the transparent Recommendation and Interest Modeling Application (RIMA) is to recommend items (e.g. tweets, Twitter users, publications, researchers, conferences) and leverage explanatory visualizations to explain the recommendations (output) as well as the underlying interest models (input). RIMA follows a user-driven personalized explanation approach by providing explanations with different levels of detail and empowering users to steer the explanation process the way they see fit. Further, the application provides on-demand explanations, that is, the users can decide whether or not to see the explanation and they can also choose which level of explanation detail they want to see.

I blame Dyson Logos.
I was halfway through my draft (along with several maps) for the Chronicles of the Splintered Realm: Timbervale volume, when I started working on a series of dungeon geomorphs based on Dyson’s challenge… and that got me thinking about how these would go together… and this got me thinking about the Abyssal Labyrinth… and that got me thinking about Minotaurs… and that got me thinking about the Great Reckoning, and the part they played in it… and that got me writing… and that got me a dozen pages into a draft of a chronicle for the Abyssal Labyrinth, and as of right now, 24 geomorphs into my Labyrinth starter pack.
So, you see, it’s all Dyson’s fault.
My first chronicle is going to be for the Abyssal Labyrith, and it will be out some time in the next week or two. I’ll post some of the geomorphs once I fire up my scanner in the next few days, but I’m having a great time working through this. Let me give you the elevator pitch (this elevator pitch assumes that the elevator breaks down for a while, and you have time to kill to explain the whole thing):
Before the Great Reckoning, the Fates gave Bael (god of evil, twin of Yahalla, ultimate bad guy) a vision of the splintered universe to come. He commissioned one of his key lieutenants, the Minotaur King, to create a massive labyrinth within a huge (nearly infinite) tessaract that exists outside of time and space, and which Bael could then use after the Reckoning to ultimately re-unify the various realms, building a bridge between them that he would control. However, he didn’t account for two things…
First, he ended up trapped at the far fringes of Pandemonium after the Reckoning, beyond even the reach of the Labyrinth.
Second, the Minotaur King learned that Bael planned to destroy him after the Labyrinth was completed; so, the Minotaur King launched a pre-emptive strike and stole the keys from Bael, leaving him unable to navigate his own network, and leaving it totally under the control of the Minotaur King, who still lairs at its very center, deep within a complex network of facets.
I see the Abyssal Labyrinth as a sort of Rubik’s Cube… every time you encounter it, and for everyone who encounters it, it’s different. Basically, the randomization of the geomorphs is its central design component; unless you are a Minotaur (or are being guided by one), you can only travel backward one step, and you can never be sure where your next step will be. It’s a little complicated, but it makes total sense in my head. Let’s see if I can break it down…
You enter the labyrinth through a gate in Del Anon (let’s say an opening at the bottom of a tomb), entering a facet (geomorph) from the ‘west’. As long as you are in the first facet you’ve entered (the first geomorph), you can always turn around and go back… once you move off of this facet in any direction except where you came from (to the next geomorph ‘north, ‘east’ or ‘south’), you cannot go back- the gates that once led backward have been randomized, now sending you in a new direction.
In short, there’s always a random chance that the next facet (geomorph) will be the one you want to get to, but the chances are really, really, really (really) slim. Again with the Rubik’s Cube- you might be able to solve it by turning it randomly, but odds are against you.
There’s a lot more about this, and I’ll drop tidbits in the next few days leading up to the release of the volume.

I see what you mean. Yes, I agree that the idioms used make all the
difference, and that there are "safe" idioms in every language which
should be promoted.
I would still dearly love to see the RAII idiom available in Python,
however, as I don't think there can be any doubt that it's safer than
the try/finally idiom. It's another tool in the toolbox...

Show both 'console' and 'output' windows when debugging using command line Follow
I'm testing a script from the command line (in this case it's Drupal with some Laravel components, e.g. Collections).
I've set the environment variable to make sure breakpoints work.
When interactively debugging, I'm finding the output of some commands - e.g. count($foo); - is shown in the Console (desirable because you don't have to look elsewhere) and other things - e.g. a method that returns an array - $foo->bar() - end up in the Output tab - this is undesirable, especially as the Console simultaneously prints "null", even though there's valid output in the other window.
- is there a way to get both the Console and the Output tabs on screen at the same time? (I can't see how)
- should I be able to get more output than I currently am in the Console?
Please sign in to leave a comment.
Please check the screenshot below, does it look like what are you looking for?
Hello. Mine looks like this (having used 'Restore Default Layout') - so I can only select one of Debugger, Console or Output at a time:
And here's an example of the split output:
It is not obvious but you may use drag'n'drop to drag "Output" and "Console" to a different section, for example, the one with "Watches" that should be enabled first:
Some animation for a better illustration:
Thanks for this, I was able to get it working.
Can you think of any reason a method in my code that returns an array, for example, won't show inline in the console, only the output tab?
Sorry, missed your comment.
Please check the following ticket:
Does it look like your scenario?
Yes, thanks - following that issue now.

Well, the nightmare continues. I decided to try an Apache2 setup on my server. But using DarwinPorts I was unable to get subversion to build the mod_dav_svn. It wouldn't put it into the already installed Apache2 server in /opt. I tried all the variants including building a DarwinPorts Apache2 installation. In the end, I decided to look at Fink which I haven't tried in years. It turns out the current Fink is much nicer than I remembered. Fink commander is great! However a working DarwinPorts would still be simpler. Fink breaks up all the variants into pieces and although it knows the dependencies it kind of leaves you guessing sometimes. But in the end I was able to build Apache2 and mod_dav_svn.
You'd think that would be the end of the saga, but nooooo...
It turns out that Xcode won't connect to my WebDAV hosted repository. It tells me the host couldn't be found. I suppose I could try building with SSL. I tried to build it that way to begin but when I tried to build subversion from Fink it complained and so I uninstalled and did it again without SSL. This was because I am doing the whole thing behind a firewall and just didn't want the hassle. I think that Xcode just wants to do it through svn+ssh anyway, So fixing it now it would probably be another time waster.
Everything works great from the command line. So I guess I'll suffer with that for the time being.
One last little problem. I had to flatten out some resource files. I have a couple of PICT files that don't seem to want to flatten out (at least using Resorcerer) so I guess I'll change to using png or jpeg or something. @#$%

Looking for advice on best practice around GPRS connecting / disconnecting.
Project is an IoT telemetry device, monitoring battery levels at remote sites. Readings sent every 15 minutes.
Using a GSM module (in this case the SIM800L, but module is unimportant in the context of this question).
When sending data, is it better / more reliable to connect GPRS every time, or open the GPRS connection at startup and leave it open?
There will be plenty of defensive coding to trap conditions where the send fails and reset as necessary, just wondering which approach is more reliable.

So here's what's been happening over the past year or so.
I joined AmeriCorps to be a teaching assistant at a school in my city between August 2015 and June 2016. Working with students all day every day doesn't really leave much time or energy for much else, and I had to put a lot of interests and hobbies on the backburner, papercraft included.
New job #2
I moved to Japan in August to be an English teacher.
I'm sure many of you (by which I mean the few that will probably notice that I've even written something) can understand that moving somewhere else can be a big change. In my case, I just moved halfway around the world to a foreign country. Granted, I studied Japanese language and culture for many years in college (my bachelor's degree is in Japanese Studies), but there's a lot you don't learn in class about living in Japan. Needless to say, between the transition and getting used to my new job, still not a lot of time or energy to dedicate to personal interests.
Having a tiny apartment and no easy access to a printer doesn't help as a papercrafter either. I might end up buying a printer eventually to resume/restart/start a lot of the projects I wanted to do, but until I figure it out, not much going on in my papercraft-land. I do have a lot of photos I never added to DeviantArt, so I might do that.
I might also share some of the plastic models I've built since I've moved here (because, you know, Japan).
Anyway, I just decided to log into DeviantArt on a whim and wanted to generally share what's going on in my life. I do miss papercrafting, but real life > hobbies. -__-
Hope you're all doing well!

With Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) you are able to monitor an Oracle environment as well as a non-Oracle environment, like Microsoft’s SQL Server.
You are also able to exchange notifications between Oracle Enterprise Manager and e.g. Microsoft’s SCOM. How to monitor this heterogeneous environment. What licenses do you for monitoring? And.. do you need Oracle licenses when sending notifications by mail? Hold on to this thought.
When buying licenses for Oracle, the first year support is mostly part of the deal. After that, a Customer may decide to stop paying for the yearly technical support of the Oracle licenses. The consequences of that decision is not always clear to customers. Most OLSA’s will contain the sentence “If you decide not to purchase technical support, you may not update any unsupported program licenses with new versions of the program.”
This is correct, but there is more to think of. This post will cover the elements that should be considered when deciding on stopping the support.
This post has already been published in the past on the AMIS technology blog.
Once in a while a company wants to know if her Oracle development- and test- environments needs to be licensed. And in a lot of cases this question simply can be answered as: yes, these environments must be licensed. The cases in which these licenses are not needed, are quite rare and a company should verify this with her Oracle representative or an intermediary.

I have a client who is running 4 iphone 3GS handsets all setup to use activesync for exchange. They are having a problem where contacts are not being synced at all and the calandar and emails will only sync if Outlook is open on their laptops. The iphone is not connected to the laptop when this happens.
I have entered one of the users details into my HTC Tattoo phone and his emails and calandar sync fine but the contacts do not. I have tried the following web site:
The first activesync test completes with no errors when using the same users credentials as above.
Going through the event logs I find two errors messages relating to activesync which are given in the text file attachment. The first error relates to knowledgebase article 905013 which talks about HTTPS timeouts on the firewall. I am using a Draytek Vigor 2820n router and have increased the timeouts to the 59 minutes recommended by apple.
This all used to work ok before Christmas. The only things I have done since is run a Microsoft update to make sure the server is fully patched, and Backup Exec 12.5 is also on SP3 with the latest hotfixes (through Liveupdate).
The server is Windows Server 2003 SBS and Exchange 2003 SP2.
Any help welcome as with the snow I am short staffed today.

Had an error over the last few days on the Merchant Centre with our feed.
We recently upgraded our server to a newer PHP version and as a result we had a few issues that needed resolving, one of which being the feed tool which we had to change.
The feed it outputs seems to be correct in nature i.e. formatting/fields etc however when google tries to access the feed it fails and gives out a response code of 403 in the File Errors section on the Merchant Centre.
We can view the feed from multiple locations and it appears to be formatted correctly in different browsers.
The directory the feed sits in is the root and there are no authentication steps required.
Not really sure where to start with such a vague error (nothing in the logs either) =(
Also tried without firewalls/mod sec off and without robots.txt.

The code below is obviously wrong - it is surprising that you get
anything other than an exception. See comments below inserted into

"result" here is obviously a string.

This means that "sample" successively hold the characters composing

You should get "AttributeError: str object does not have attribute `attrib`".

code
|
If I am using channel 8 for my flight mode selection (ie. FLTMODE_CH = 8) then can I still use an RCn function on the corresponding port (Main 8) to control something else? In my case I have a quadplane setup with RC8_Function = 36 (right rear motor) and seems to fly OK but sometimes that motor appears to behave a little differently on arming. But that might just be a calibration issue or a “sticky” motor.
Related to my query above, I have another question: will the PWM parameters for RC8 (Max, Min, Trim) affect the right rear motor in any way? The existing values are correct for controlling the flight mode but they are different to the PWM values (Max. Min, Trim) for the other three motors. Do I need to be concerned about this? Or perhaps these have no effect when RCn function is used?
Sticking my neck out a bit here, but on the first question, I believe that FLIGHTMODE_CH must logically be an RC input, while RC8_Function is an RC output. There should be no direct relationship between RC inputs and RC outputs., unless you set the RCx_FUNCTION to “passthrough” These parameter could probably be be better named.
For the PWM, it is pretty hard to fathom how they work. Logically since they are named similarly to RC outputs, they should apply to the RC Outputs, but if you say they are “correct for the flight mode”, that would imply they apply to the RC inputs.
This whole area of ArduPilot is a mess and could certainly be improved.
I am aware that you have been working on this bit of ArduPilot and I’m hoping that it will be possible to have a generic actuator output mixer , when it is completed. I understand that you are planning a mixer scheme based on the OpenTX system?
For RC outputs I personally prefer the term actuator to servo, since it covers the set of servos, ESC’s, switches, relays etc.
As an alternative to “RC inputs” I found the term joystick input most descriptive.
Also defining the the RC inputs using names “pitch”, “roll”, “yaw”, “throttle” rather than using numbers might also help understanding
Thanks gents, good to know that input and output are independent of each other. I’ve exhausted all the servo ports on my Pixhawk, so it’s good to know that I can use FLTMODE_CH = 8 and also use main 8 port for RCn function on my quadplane.

I am currently having a problem concerning Qty's in my BOM. All Qty's of my parts within the BOM are correct except one. Its telling me there are 106 of this specific part. When I inspect the actual assembly file, there are only two of said part as there should be. There are no hidden parts in the tree or anything. Can someone please point me in the right direction to correct this. Thanks.

|
code
|
Yesterday I wrote a post in which I remarked on the relative few numbers of wine bloggers in the UK compared with the US (even considering the differences in size of our two nations). One of the comments left by a reader got me thinking a lot about the differences in wine culture between our two nations, and the degree to which those differences might be responsible for the much lower ratio of wine bloggers to wine drinkers in the UK. Moreover, there are a lot of countries in Europe that also have far fewer wine bloggers than might be expected: France, Spain, and Italy all have less than 200 wine bloggers each as far as I know.
Commenter King Krak, suggested that “My thinking on this is that it’s simply a smaller percentage of the population are passionate about wine.”
My first reaction to this idea was dismissive, but the more I thought about it, the more I wondered if it really might be true. I also started wondering if there might be an inverse relationship between what I will call the strength and homogeneity of the wine culture in a country and the tendency for people to blog about wine.
Let’s get the following disclaimer right up front: except for the consumption numbers below, I have no data to back up the following line of conjecture. It’s 100% pure speculation, and I welcome any corrections or damning evidence to the contrary.
There are definite differences between the US and nearly every European country when it comes to wine. The biggest one can be captured in a single statistic: annual per-capita consumption of wine. In the US, we drink on average 9.68 liters of wine per year. In the UK, they drink 19.14 liters per year. In France they drink 53.22 liters of wine per year.
I believe a significant cultural difference accompanies this variance in consumption. Or perhaps more accurately, I believe a significant cultural difference drives this difference in consumption. The cliché of wine as food in Europe comes from somewhere.
Here in the USA, we have what on a bad day I’d call a stunted wine culture. Being more optimistic in general, a better characterization might be fledgling. But in either case, the relationship Americans have with wine feels at best slightly dysfunctional. As I have written before, our relationship with wine is riddled with class connotations, self-esteem problems, and intimidation. Wine in America is not commonplace enough to be treated like any other beverage. Instead it gets a vaunted status that carries with it a lot of oppressive baggage.
Could one of the consequences of this situation be the existence of the demographic called the wine geek? It certainly seems somewhat plausible that the desire to immerse oneself in the passion of wine, and then turn around and evangelize it to the world (or at least your closest friends) seems much more likely in a culture where most people only drink wine on special occasions, as opposed to a culture where wine is part of every meal. Add to that situation the deep penetration of internet technologies and a dash of American ego, and perhaps you have the ingredients for the wine blog explosion in the US.
I wonder if America has more wine writers per capita than the UK, France, Italy, or Spain? Does a country with a relatively constrained wine culture produce a stronger market for writing about it? Note that I’m not just talking about the proclivity to drink wine, as there’s obviously not a correlation between low per-capita wine consumption and the number of wine geeks in a country. Just ask the folks in Burundi, whose annual wine consumption hovers around .1 liters per capita.
But even absent this correlation, the converse of the American situation seems equally plausible to me. “Why write or talk about wine when you can just drink it,” the average Italian might say. Sure, there are wine critics, writers, and magazines in most European countries, but I wonder if, like wine bloggers, they may be fewer in number for that reason? Your average European might be less inclined to pick up a wine magazine (or more to the point, start a wine blog) for the same reason that there aren’t a lot of tanning salons in Tahiti.
This is obviously not a well researched thesis, and probably won’t stand up to even the most cursory of analytical inquiries, but there’s something to be said, I think for the aspects of American wine culture, versus the rest of Europe, and the reason why there might be more wine bloggers in the US than everywhere else.

I want to place all of my libraries on the server. Currently the sketches work fine and as far as I know the libraries are coming from the individual linux mint machines using cinnamon, releases vary depending on machine. I can move the libraries etc but what do I do to the IDE 1.8.18 and 1.8.19? to make it follow that path.
Arduino IDE can use libraries only from 3 locations.
- libraries folder in sketchbook folder
- libraries folder of selected board's platform
- libraries folder in IDE installation folder (only IDE 1, not IDE 2)
There is no option to configure other paths and absolute or relative paths don't work in
#include directive with the Arduino build process.
The only way to use libraries from a different location is to link with means of the operating system the folder with the library into one of the searched locations.

After seeing your post i got that you have two interfaces: br0 and br1.
br0 - > inet addr:10.30.4.114 Gateway:10.30.4.1
br1 - > inet addr:172.19.1.145 Gateway:172.19.1.1
this is your requirement and also you configured two routing tables, admin and users to be used for packets sent to or from these NICs in /etc/iproute2/rt_tables.
Now set up the routing rules to route incoming and outgoing packets via these tables:
ip route add 10.30.0.0/24 dev br0 src 10.30.4.114 table users
ip route add default via 10.30.4.1 dev br0 table users
Above command says that the network, 10.30.0.0/24, can be reached through the br0 interface and the second command sets the default gateway.
ip rule add from 10.30.4.114/32 table users
ip rule add to 10.30.4.114/32 table users
Above rules say that both traffic from the IP address, 10.30.4.114, as well as traffic directed to or through this IP address, should use the users routing table.
You can follow the same procedure for remaining networks and try to do telnet in some cases ping will not work
and also send me the output of below command
#ip route list table uers
#ip rule show
I hope this will work and also look at the below link

https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/311598/how-to-structure-huge-conditional-statement
|
code
|
I'm creating some kind of a "personal assistant" application which is basically a web service that receives a message and then does something according to it.
For example I send "what time is it?" and I get the current time as answer. Other examples:
- "tell me a joke" -> queries and sends some joke from an public api
- "I have to [X] -> sets [X] to todo list
- "What do I have to do?" -> sends todo list
- "Start my pc" -> Starts PC via Wake On Lan
or what ever else comes to my mind.
My first prototype just uses an if else statment which looks something like
if message.contains("foo"): # do foo stuff elif message.contains("bar"): # do bar stuff
Of course this will be a total mess after adding several commands so I'm thinking about what would be a good concept to structure such a huge conditional statement.
(I'm using Python with the web.py framework)
One idea is to use some list / map to create a mapping between key words and associated functions and split functionality in different classes (like a todo list module and so on).
There are applications like WolframAlpha or Siri which have just a single input method but several hundred or thousand different functions in the brackground. Of course those are on a totally different level but in general, how do you create a nice and clean branching from a single input to a big number of different functions?

Mailman is not a mail-merge program. Nor is it a customer-relations
management program. Nor does it have a user database, at least not
the kind you're thinking of. On these subjects, you should take a
look at FAQ entries like 3.18, 3.37, and 3.40.
However, in FAQ 4.43, Tokio Kikichi mentions a patch which might be
related to your question.
Nevertheless, I would suggest that you spend some time searching the
FAQ and reading the various entries, to make sure that you've covered
all your bases.

UPDATE: According to ISP, an autopsy was performed on Laura Hurst at the Tippecanoe County Morgue and the cause of death was asphyxiation due to strangulation by a snake.
OXFORD, Ind. — A woman was found dead with a snake around her neck in Benton County Wednesday night, police say.
Indiana State Police said Benton County Sheriff Don Munson found the woman inside the Oxford home, according to WLFI. It appeared the woman had been “killed by a reptile,” police said.
ISP described the building as a “reptile home” that had been specifically set up to house 140 snakes. According to the Journal & Courier, police found an eight-foot-long reticulated python around the woman’s neck. The newspaper also reported that Munson owns the home.
The victim was identified as Laura Hurst, 36, of Battle Ground. Police say would usually go to the location about twice per week.
Police said Hurst’s cause of death would be determined during an autopsy that’s been scheduled for Friday.

code

We show that for several natural problems of interest (including Vertex Cover, Satisfiability, and variants of the Minimum Circuit Size Problem), complexity lower bounds that are barely non-trivial imply super-polynomial or even exponential lower bounds in strong computational models. We term this phenomenon "hardness magnification''. We further explore magnification as an avenue to proving strong lower bounds, and argue that magnification circumvents the "natural proofs'' barrier of Razborov and Rudich. Examining some standard proof techniques, we find that they fall just short of proving lower bounds via magnification. As one of our main open problems, we ask whether there are other meta-mathematical barriers to proving lower bounds that rule out approaches combining magnification with known techniques.

Found a solution, i'll post it here in case someone else runs into this:
It cant be done with Snow Leopard tools. It used to be a feature in QuickTime, but was removed from Quicktime X.
What you do is install QuickTime 7.0.
Cmd-i on the video-icon to open the info-pane. Then Open the movie in QT 7.0, scroll to which-ever frame you like, and drag this image from the QT-window to the info-pane on the icon top-left corner. That's it.
I cant understand why apple would remove this feature from QT X??

Installing Tools (Windows)
This guide covers the tools required to author, build and debug Rhino plugins on Windows.
This guide presumes you have Rhino 7 for Windows
Install Visual Studio
Visual Studio is Microsoft’s development platform and Integrated Development Environment (IDE). Visual Studio comes in three major “streams”: Visual Studio Code1, Visual Studio Online2, and Visual Studio “proper”3. In order to author RhinoCommon plugins, you will need Visual Studio “proper” (Visual Studio Code and Visual Studio Online are not supported).
At the time of this writing, Visual Studio “proper” comes in three editions: Community, Professional, and Enterprise. Any of these editions will work.
Note: For the purposes of this guide, we will presume you are using Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition.
- Visual Studio Community Edition is free from Microsoft for students, open-source contributors, and small teams. Details here. Click the Community button to download the installer.
- Run the Visual Studio installer you downloaded from Microsoft.
- Follow the onscreen prompts to install Visual Studio. You will need the “.NET desktop development” workload for RhinoCommon based plug-in development. When successfully installed, click the Launch button.
The RhinoCommon templates contains wizards to get you started creating plugins quickly.
- Launch Visual Studio.
- Navigate to Tools > Extensions and Updates…
- In the left-hand sidebar, expand the Online section, then select the Visual Studio Gallery entry…
- In the Search field, search for rhinocommon. This filters the gallery list below.
- Find RhinoCommon templates and select it.
- Click the Download button. The extension installation should begin after you close Visual Studio.
- You must Accept the license agreement by clicking on the Install button.
- If the installation is successful, the extension should appear in your list of Installed extensions.
Congratulations! You have the tools to build a RhinoCommon plugin for Rhino for Windows. Now what?
Check out the Your First Plugin (Windows) guide for instructions building - your guessed it - your first plugin.
Visual Studio Code is Microsoft’s cross-platform source code editor for Windows, Linux, and macOS. At the time of this writing, Visual Studio code does not yet support the features required to author RhinoCommon plugins. ↩
Visual Studio Online is Microsoft’s online counterpart to the desktop edition of Visual Studio (referred to as Visual Studio “proper” above). We have not tested using Visual Studio Online to debug RhinoCommon plugins as having a copy of Rhino running would prove logistically difficult. ↩
Visual Studio “proper” is the desktop version of Visual Studio…we are only attaching the “proper” epithet to distinguish it from the Visual Studio Code and Visual Studio Online. In subsequent guides this will be referred to as simply “Visual Studio.” ↩

code

Please help me restore my sanity!
Major issue: Accessing files on the server can vary from normal to painfully slow (3-4 minutes to open a 500KB Word File). While editing a Word file that was opened from the server, the program will stutter and stall frequently. This will happen if the keyboard/mouse input is idle for 10 or more seconds. Example - Type a few lines...stop to think...type again or even press page-down, system pauses for 3-5 seconds, then starts responding. This is the symptom on Windows 7. On XP, a "Not responding" message appears too frequently when attempting to open a file from a network share.
Configuration is a SBS 2008 server with 5 total workstations. Office 2003 on all stations. Clean install of SBS 2008 (let the Wizards do the walkin') in April 2012. Workstations are 3 Windows 7 Pro and 2 XP Pro. Un-managed Cisco GB switch. AT&T DSL through a Netopia Modem. DHCP on server. User folders are not redirected to the server.
Things I've tried/reviewed/examined:
-Turned off all Antivirus - no change.
-Moved a small set of files off server and onto a workstation share - no change.
-Changed from a Netgear GB switch to a Cisco GB Switch - no Change.
-Changed from a GB switch down to a 100MB switch - Problem much less frequent, but overall speed obviously reduced.
-Ethernet wiring all tested and confirmed good.
-Current drivers on all NICS (server and workstations).
-Set up a constantly running ping from server to workstation on a 5 second interval (based on symptom of the "stalls" only appearing when a user pause of 10+ seconds occurred - no appreciable change.
-Found several documents on slow Server 2008 File Access here noting changes to several NIC settings on server and workstations (see italicized below). Did that - No change:
This sounds like a network issue:
On one of the slow machines and the server please run the following commands (Elevated command)
netsh int ip set global taskoffload=disabled
netsh int tcp set global congestion=none
netsh int tcp set global autotuning=disabled
netsh int tcp set global rss=disabled
I did NOT make an additional suggested change to the SMB signing settings on the server (turning them off).
It *seems* that when I keep a steady flow of data (e.g. Pandora) moving to workstation, file access is more consistent (better).
Owner does his work by typing documents from templates in Word 2003 (originally created in Word 2000 or prior). I tried opening one of the .doc templates used for most of his work and then saving it as an .rtf and the stalling/hanging/slow opening all disappeared. Reopened the original .doc and the issue resurfaced. Went back to the .rtf and all was well. Assumed I had it licked as a format issue in the template (.rtf's don't preserve more than basic formatting) as I could make the problem happen and not happen at will based on the type of file being used (.doc vs .rtf).
Owner now reporting that the .rtf files are behaving with the stalls/pauses/slow opens and I have not yet confirmed that.
If files are residing on the C: drive of owner's system, absolutely no issues present.
NIC on Owner system (Dell Optiplex)? System just coming up to 1 year old, but haven't tried swapping it out.
Office 2003 not playing well with Windows 7/Server 2008?
This one is driving me (and my client) nuts. Looking for things to look at, test, change, etc. that will make this headache go away.

This is dedicated to all Webdevs, especially those WordPress fanboys.
I was reflecting on some things since I do more frequent freelance jobs at the time. And I have to admit: people are fucking crazy.
I had some serious talk with customers and some serious talk for people I work as subsidiary.
The average customer thinks a nice webpage costs I'm 9-50 bucks. They got some shitty Webhosting for 1-5$/month including domain and think they are set.
They have unclear visions about what they actually want, it all boils down to "I like the design". I made a page for someone who just posted images, no text nothing and I told him a trillion times NEEDS some text, even a fucking picture description would be sufficient, else he'll never score anything at google.
Ofc it got denied, now he's bitching how nobody finds the site when they google his name. The other thing is that Wordpress became the solution for everything.
I'm a fucking certified magento developer and I hate magento with a passion. Magento is an overabstracted clusterfuck and believe me, I did the certification I had to learn more than average about the core. But damn, don't slap woocommerce on everything.
Narrowninded fucktards, the cheap out of the box solution isn't always the best.
Don't cry if you got hacked because you were too dumb to upgrade your wordpress. Don't tell me to do some "enhancements" on a server you probably share with 100 other uses. I can't fix your Webserver with your shitty ftp account.
I also hate WordPress with a burning passion. Cum guzzling cavetroll it is. It has it usages, but don't rely on a core So small every kind of extra functionality has to somehow tinkered on it and then expect it to work flawlessly and for 10$ price.
I still stay to my word. Nothing great has been nor will be created with a Wordpress core. Don't tell me how some great stuff has been achieved. Or wait, please do so. But before you do think about if that wouldn't been faster, cheaper, more reliable , etc... if done with a framework like symphony or laravel... or even zend or cake.
And that brings me back to the point:
Is cheap and "out of the box" really what you need and desire? As customer and as developer?6
( rant || !rant ) && idiots
console.info( this.isLongRant );
console.warn( "contains strong language and wordpress" );
A friend of mine sent two of his "friends" to me because they wanted me to build a website for their new business (~idea).
So I had a meeting with them.
First of all they wanted me to have a look on the current (work in progress) site.
First impression of the frontend:
Well, imagine this:
- a 90s/2k background (dotted/pixelated cloud in baby-blueish as backgroud with repeat)
- the logo was made by the sister of one of the guys, it wasn't too bad, but badly aligned, asymmetrical
- some obvious $offTheShelfShopPlugin with $randomStockContent
- the fucking slider had a small loading bar to indicate changes, it appears like an hyperanxious child on ADHS
- below the logo TWO FUCKING GIF SPINNERS to indicate nothing else but how fucking brain amputated these two dudes are, including the dev who is responsible for adding this. (to this point, they only told me, that a webagency did the setup and some basic work on the site, more on that later)
- no styling concept at all, random fonts and stuff everywhere including default styles of the shop plugin.
- FUUUUUCK WTF wil come furtherin this meeting?
After seeing a pile of binary puke fisted out of a 60yo nonstop-intern who changed his jobtitle from dildo-traveling-salesman to fullstack-frontend-dev by wrinting it on a post-it-note, I imagined, there has to be something wrong with the backend as well.
Boy was I right!
Yes, you guessed it! A random Wordpress adminpanel login appeared! OH NO....
I really wanted to levae this meeting immediately.
I was not able to hold my disgust back and I told them right in their face, what a shit pile of nutty squirrel turds this current page is. And that Wordpress is not the right choice at all for a shop.
Then came the best part: They basically told me, that they terminated the previous contract with the webagency because they were too expensive (they are cheap, compared to others, I know people who know their prices) and that they wanted to create A BIG MARKETPKACE with multiple ressellers who can have their shop in their website. Something similar to FUCKING AMAZON. ON FUCKING WORDPRESS!?!?!?
They even asked me if I wanted to be their partner & developer and that they can't pay much at the moment until the marketplace starts to grow.
I more or less told them to go fuck themselves with a rusty pitchfork.2
MFW the company that have a turnover around $100 million via their woocommerce site only does'nt want to upgrade from PHP5.4 because "it is too much work".
Well fuck you then3
Boss came in with new project:
boss shows me the design
me: it's a wordpress website ?
boss: client wants it with prestashop
me: but the brief is for an ecommerce website with 2 categories and a blog, wordpress with woocommerce and a blog should be enought
boss: no, client wants it with prestashop
oh I forgot, client wants it in a shared hosting server, where I can't add php extensions
started the project, fucked my weekend with anxiety and depression, and then products list came in ... 15 product
me: ok, I need to get the fuck out quick
I quit, I sleep at night, I smile with my kids ...2
So I fucked up.. I assigned a small wordpress/woocommerce project to myself to avoid my team members from wasting their time on it. I had a two month deadline, which was insane, so I kept postponing it until I forgot about it. Today my client contacted me by email to ask if she could preview the site before our meeting in two weeks..
QUE BULLSHIT EXCUSE:
- “I had to migrate to another server because of some access/permission issues with my current host. They gave me their word that they would be done with the migration thursday or friday, then I have to correct some permissions and database settings, and the DNS update may take up to 24 hours to finish. I will personally make sure that you know as soon as the migration has finished.”
- “Thank you so much! I feel so safe having assigned your company the job! I am really looking forward to our meeting and seeing the site!”
Oh and did I mention that deadline was around 65 days ago? And that I haven’t even started yet? I know what I’ll be doing for the next 6 days..3
I maintain two WooCommerce plugins on wordpress.org. Yesterday I had to update one plugin and let me tell you one thing.
The motherfucking piece of shit is slow and suck ass. My Dad uses git, WordPress why don't you move on. Please for god sack, Move to git.4
Sorry for my bad english.
So, I made an e-commerce site for a company once. It's actually just a WordPress site with that WooCommerce plugin.
After that, my dad was "advertising me (suggesting me?)" to one of his friend that I can make a website.
Then his friend called me and I asked what to do. In short, she has an online marketplace website where the users can be either a seller or a buyer (just an ordinary e-bay like site). Her site is built with PHP (codeigniter 2).
I can't make custom site that's why I'm using WordPress for my client, I'm still learning PHP right now. How do I tell my dad to not "overestimate" my ability to make sites. I already told my dad about my abilities and I'm still learning, but he keep saying that I should accept it because it will give you experiences.11
I had spent the last year working on a online store power by woocommerce with over 100k products from various suppliers. This online store utilized a custom API that would take the various formats that suppliers offer their inventory in and made them consistent. Now everything was going swimmingly initially, but then I began adding more and more products using a plug-in called WP all import. I reached around 100k products and the site would take up to an entire minute to load sometimes timing out. I got desperate so I installed several caching plugins, but to no avail this did not help me. The site was originally only supposed to take three to four months but ended up taking an entire year. Then, just yesterday I found out what went wrong and why this woocommerce website with all of these optimizations was still taking anywhere from 60 to 90 seconds to load, or just timing out entirely. I had initially thought that I needed a beefier server so I moved it to a high CPU digitalocean VM. While this did help a little bit, the site was still very slow and now I had very high CPU usage RAM usage and high disk IO. I was seriously stumped the Apache process was using a high amount of CPU and IO along with MYSQL as well. It wasn't until I started digging deeper into the database that I actually found out what the issue was. As I was loading the site I would run 'show process list' in the SQL terminal, I began to notice a very significant load time for one of the tables, so I went to go and check it out. What I did was I ran a select all query on that particular table just to see how full it was and SQL returned a error saying that I had exceeded the maximum packet size. So I was like okay what the fuck...
So I exited my SQL and re-entered it this time with a higher packet size. I ran a query that would count how many rows were in this particular table and the number came out to being in the millions. I was surprised, and what's worse is that this table belong to a plugin that I had attempted to use early in the development process to cache the site. The plugin was deactivated but apparently it had left PHP files within the wp content directory outside of the actual plugin directory, so it's still executing scripts even though the plugin itself was disabled. Basically every time I would change anything on the site, it would recache the whole thing, and it didn't delete any old records. So 100k+ products caching on saves with no garbage collection... You do the math, it's gonna be a heavy ass database. Not only that but it was serialized data, so when it did pull this metric shit ton of spaghetti from the database, PHP then had to deserialize it. Hence the high ass CPU load. I had caching enabled on the MySQL end of things so that ate the ram. I was really desperate to get this thing running.
Honest to God the main reason why this website took so long was because the load times made it miserable to work on. I just thought that the hardware that I had the site on was inadequate. I had initially started the development on a small Linux VM which apparently wasn't enough, which is why I moved it to digitalocean which also seemed to not be enough, so from there I moved to a dedicated server which still didn't seem to be enough. I was probably a few more 60-second wait times or timeouts from recommending a server cluster to my client who I know would not be willing to purchase it. The client who I promised this site to have completed in 3 months and has waited a year. Seriously, I would tell people the struggles that I would go through with this particular site and they would just tell me to just drop the site; just take the money, just take the loss. I refused to, this was really the only thing that was kicking my ass. I present myself as this high-and-mighty developer like I'm just really good at what I do but then I have this WordPress site that's just beating the shit out of me for a year. It was a very big learning experience and it was also very humbling as well, it made me realize that I really don't know as much as I think I might. It was evidence that there is still so much more to learn out there, I did learn a lot from that experience especially about optimizing websites the different types of methods to do that particular lonely on the server side and I'll be able to utilize this knowledge in the future.
I guess the moral of the story is, never really give up. Ultimately things might get so bad that you're running on hopes and dreams. Those experiences are generally the most humbling. Now I can finally present the site that I am basically a year late on to the client who will be so happy that I did not give up on the project entirely. I'll have experienced this feeling of pure euphoria, and help the small business significantly grow their revenue. Helping others is very fulfilling for me, even at my own expense.
Anyways, gonna stop ranting. Running out of characters. If you're still here... Ty for reading :')7
God I fucking hate WordPress
Today I found out a single WooCommerce site is using 20% of database CPU (for comparison, 50 other sites use only 10% between them). Upon investigation it turns out that WooCommerce loads every single product in order to do the taxonomy count. Because the data is stored as PHP-serialised values in post meta, there's no way to do a decent "SELECT count() ... GROUP BY ...". And that code came straight from the WordPress devs, no more and no less...8
Shit, again a long rant...
It all started 9 months ago.
We had a meeting with our group staff (5 people). Back the we discussed, if we should only work online or still send files around with mail.
Sure I suggested to run everything on a root server, would be the best performance/cost choice.
The president and the accounted refused, they said it's still working, why change. Payment will only be trough banktransfer and everybody keeps files local.
Back then I told them, that they will have sooner or later a problem. Files will be missing and bills not payd.
Last week we had a new meeting:
- Some of the group missed files.
- Some bills were unpaid
So now I have time until march to find and finish a groupware/collaboration tool.
I need to run member administration and payment online, this should be finished in October 2018. It should also do accounting.
Im really planing to use WooCommerce for this, I'm really crazy, I know! But I dont have time for that shit!
I work fulltime beside this and almost have no time to code something like that.
Well this week I demanded a memberlist, so I can plan a CRM database.
I received a word file as memberlist.
I asked them if this is a joke, right?!
They said no, thats the list. All the Data was mixed and some user details missing.
I HAD 3 HOURS TO GET IT DOWN IN EXCEL. WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS??? I REALLY WANNA PUNCH YOU ALL IN YOUR FACE!
When I sended it, I didn't receive a response or thanks.
The joke, I'm doing this stuff for free. I volontered, to make something big...
Im really going to shit Lego Bricks next...
The company that I work for has recently recruited a team for Web Development, so they don't have to pay a monthly fee to the previous team who designed their website.
They have over 3000+ products in the old website, and no logical way to import them to the new website. The old team was asking for 300$ to give them an API which would return the product details in an XML format.
Obviously, paying that amount of money wasn't logical for a dying website, so the manager decided to hire someone to manually copy the content from the old admin panel to the new one, that is until I stopped him.
My solution? Write a simple web scraper to login to the old panel and collect data. Boom! 300$ saved from going to waste.
Now, the old team found about this and as much as my manager was happy, they were quite angry. So they implanted a Google reCaptcha to prevent my bot from scraping the old panel.
I spent about 20 minutes, and found out once you're logged in to the old panel, the session is saved in a cookie and you are no longer greeted by a Captcha.
So I re-written a small portion of my bot, and Boom! Instant karma from manager. We finished publishing the new site, and notified the old team, only to see the precious look on their face. Poor guy, he thought I was a wizard or something 😂😂
That's what you get for overcharging people!
TL;DR: Company's old website team wanted to overcharge us writing an API to fetch 3000+ records.
Written a basic web scraper to do the same job in less than an hour.3
I just wasted 4 hours debugging a wordpress plugin because the API was returning only the first element of a list. I posted it on support forums, downloaded the plugin's source code and tried to manually find the cause, and I was about to post an issue on the plugin's github page.
It turns out that I forgot I had '$' in my insomnia json filter.... I should probably look for a different job.3
Just spent 8 hours debugging an issue that had been sitting in my issue queue for a week. WooCommerce was claiming transactions were failing, but going through in the background anyway.
Can’t share any more specifics here, but the gist of it is that the server the code was developed on was set to PHP version 7.1, while the server the dev site was on was set to version 5.6 (which I didn’t even think was still installed, never mind the default...).
So yeah, fun times over a trivial fix.1
WooCommerce is shit
Just try to find anything in the documentation on their retarded website and you will get what I am talking about.
A billion of unstructured links. With absolutely no sidebar or table of contents.
IMPOSSIBLE to find any fuck there.
It is far easier to build an e-store from scratch, than to customize their ugly monster.
Now look Laravel or PHPunit documentation to compare how it should be.
😔this weekend should be fun, I... I need to... well you see... I need to create a woocommerce site despite my better judgments and opinions on the subject.
God, if you are listening.. well reading, please have mercy on my soul.5
I've always thought that Wordpress is HOT CARBAGE for custom solutions. The opinion is influenced by devRant actually. And I'm really starting to see that after few of months working with it.
For context, it's a accommodation booking site with sub-theme that uses plugins such as Woocommerce Bookings. I didn't build it but I'm now developing and maintaining it.
The emails... I've tried to make them function properly. But no. Because we skip the fucking verification step to allow instant booking it just won't send them. I made yet another workaround and casted some spells. NOW IT SENDS THE EMAIL TWICE...
I'm done. It's good enough.3
This project is gonna drive me insane. I'm moving a custom-scripted WordPress ecommerce site to WooCommerce. The basis of the source site was WooCommerce but with the advantages stripped away and with a LOT of hard coded stuff added to it to make it seem like a unique, custom ecommerce engine.
Now I have to strip all that away and standardize it back into the WooCommerce way so it's all easier to maintain.
It's like I've been handed a jigsaw puzzle of a bunch of clowns and now I need to take it apart and put it together again but make it look like George Washington instead.1

shall i just kill my self slowly with fire?
Got frustrated with trying to shoehorn an overly-customized, spaghetti code WooCommerce implementation back into one that is easier to maintain via plugins. Got on my bike and rode north toward my old neighborhood until I started recognizing landmarks. Part of me wants to keep riding and never return.
Name a shittier API to hook into than Magento's REST API.
Protip: You can't.
[bit of context]
Building 3rd party integrations via their REST API and keep unearthing "WTF?!" architectural design moments. For example: Pulling down products tells you if it has a configurable parent (product to store all master options, etc)... but fuck me if I want to know what the sku of that parent is, or any other means of accessing it!
How the fuck M2 is such a major eCommerce platform is beyond me. WooCommerce in comparison however: Beautiful API, Beautiful documentation, a couple of limitations, no big deal. I love WooCommerce.
M2 makes me question why the hell I became a dev sometimes.2
Fuck you WooCommerce and fuck you shopify, also a big fuck you to every developer who thinks it's a good idea to notify other customers about what another customer just bought in real time.
Guess fucking what. I don't fucking care what uncle deadinthehead just bought. Get fucking raped in a columbian prison and die to aids infested rain..2
The customer wants to migrate his old store into WooCommerce. Here's a MySQL dump with 130 tables and no documentation on how they're related.
You also have to scrape all of the couple thousand product images off their site because they don't want their old dev knowing, so you can't just have FTP access...1
Our owner's other company sells products online (or has the ability to anyways). Their current site is 7+ years old WordPress/Woocommerce and is seriously outdated because the site breaks if you update anything so we've been told to make a new site (finally). They also said they were going to release a whole new line up of products. So the first thing I tried to do was get them to nail down their product line and how shipping was going to be configured. I was told to just use the shipping from the previous site.
Turns out those shipping rates don't use any sort of math or automation at all, there is literally a manually set shipping value for every single product for every single shipping location (30*60) and even values for different quantities. And there's no way to export these rates into a readable table because the plugins they use shove all the data into the postmeta table, I'm forced to go through and put the data into a spreadsheet so that I can attempt to organize it and hopefully find someone way to automate it. Owner claims at one point that he has a similar spreadsheet that's more up to date but for some reason refuses to send it over or put me in touch with the right people in the shipping department.
I've gone through the shipping rates with the old products and the new products and organized them as best I can and each time I've gotten done and shown them the spreadsheet with their products and shipping, they add or change something which requires me to basically wipe the slate clean and start over eating another 50 or so hours of my time, which with everything else really means another month+ to find time to work on it between other projects.
After about a year they finished their products and I finally finished the planning and got approval to build it out for the site. Small victory!!
After about 60 hours plugging these values into the database (only about 1/3 done) I get an email from their head of shipping who tells me the values in my spreadsheet are "terribly inaccurate, in some areas by $100+" and that the data should not be used anywhere.
So after something like a year and a half and 200+ hours of work, the data I've been using to plan all this isn't even accurate. I'm trying not to go crazy here but this kind of shit is unacceptable. When we're done with this I'm going to send the owner an invoice to show him how much money he wasted on this because nothing was planned and he just wanted it built. There's a fucking process for a reason, when you don't follow the process you fuck everything up. If a client had pulled this shit and turned their simple site into this much work they would have been dropped. I get constant emails asking when the new site will be done and every time my answer is "I'm still waiting for x items that I asked for last time you asked where we were." He gets a couple things on the list and sends them back and then goes unresponsive for weeks at a time.
Management has been telling me that I seem more stressed lately but only one of them understands what's going on here when I explain it. The rest say stupid shit like "why don't you automate it" or "make an intern do it." You won't let me hire an intern and even if I did, I'm not sure I could explain how the shipping works now to even trust someone else to do it. I'm hoping when the shipping guy gives me the new sheet that maybe there's some easier solution here because I'm ready to start shooting people.2
Are you content with your job or always searching for greener pastures?
I'm split inbetween. Current pay is very decent and working conditions are flexible. However, the work itself is not always that great. I find it to be comedically true how "hard workers" don't get promoted or bonuses, they get more work. There has recently been a heavy influx of what I'd like to classify as "shit tickets" since a guy who was the main "shit ticket doer" left the company after being burnt out.
I work with a small-ish digital agency as a BE dev, so I'm mostly dealing with small to medium scale projects built with WordPress/WooCommerce, with often custom API/ERP integrations on top. I'm not a big fan of the stack as a developer but as a contractor I can understand the business reasons why it is used. Part of me wants to find something else, part of me thinks I'm looking for a perfect company that doesn't exist and I should lower my expectations -- I might find better work for sure, but with the same pay and conditions? It seems unlikely at the moment. The company was recently acquired, so I'm hopeful for the future.4
Trying to create a custom woocommerce store theme, pretty sure I've become bald from all the hair pulling I've had to do over their shitty CSS class names. For example .woocomerce_Store--Front5
I’m now in my third try at attempting to set up reasonably priced shipping for a small volume ecommerce website. First it was UPS which charged more to ship than the product was worth, and ended up just dropping it off at USPS for local purchasers. Then it was USPS but apparently I chose the wrong WooCommerce plugin because it’s meant for high volume (but doesn’t say so in the description). Now I have to get the plugin maker to swap it to Stamps.com and I have to set up a whole new account there and no idea if it’ll even work. FML.
Hating WooCommerce at the moment. Have to update a private CC payment gateway plugin to do tokenization and subscriptions. The examples are pitching errors and deprecation notices, not all steps are being shown, and the example plugins aren’t providing any useful hints, either...
Last thing I need to deliver before Christmas; looking to be a long night...4
When making an ecommerce site, what platform do you guys use? WooCommerce, Magento, Shopify, ....
Or do you just start from scratch with a payment gateway such as stripe or icepay5
WooCommerce sucks, Block editor sucks, Elementor is no better, but if you want a real mess, just add more plugins. Bonus: if you use any "third party WordPress plugin", WooCommerce support can always say, oh yeah, I see that you are using a third party plugin, so we cannot support you, sorry.
Fuck, that's not the kind of front-end development that I was hoping to do in 2023.4
I will find the person who realized the category-management and the arrangement of items inside Woocommerce.
And when I'll find you, I'll make you change all the categories inside every single fu***n item.1
Looking for a credit card billing option another than PayPal.
Searched “React e commerce” and found
I’m more familiar with node.js, React toolset, but only never managed eshop beside Wordpress wooCommerce.
Have any one used it before? Pro or cons?Or any alternatives?
Really appreciate your opinion 🙏4
After an hour of head banging trying to get products filtered from woocommerce api, I get to know that filters do not exist anymore. Why would they remove something so important in a newer api version?
Anybody aware of alternatives?1
Because you maintain a WooCommerce payment gateway plugin, a user contacts you to ask if it can do something that seriously extends the basic checkout functionality.
An e-mail conversation ensues to clarify the nature of the request and see if it is even remotely in scope for the plugin (it isn't).
Final e-mail from the user ends with, "It really isn't all that hard. I think you can probably knock it out in a day or two. ;)"
Co-worker with 20 years of "computer" experience, and another that's a graphic designer who has never used Illustrator make suggestions to the owner about what's best for the site... claims the problems he is having with Pricing wouldn't happen if he wasn't using WooCommerce, because "it's really only good for small sites, not sites with 3000 items or more..."
I died a little inside from laughing, as the problems are coming from a custom plugin created by his dev!
I've a new request from a client wanting a drop shipping system with WordPress and WooCommerce. He also wants a merchandise management system.
I never did this and am unsure how to build it, what fuck to expect or even what to charge.
Please send help! 🥺😱😰6
Fun Fact: Did you know that ublock origin specifically hides the global store notice banner in WooCommerce by CSS? I found out tonight after fiddling with that shite for almost an hour.
Haha, fuck you.6
Thinking on selling products online. In the long run, Would you rather use wordpress+woocommerce or develop the whole thing from the ground up?2
The fucking shitty fucking ass shithole Wordpress Woocommerce just fucking run sluggishly like shit even not touched on without and clue causes fuck. As if there is a fucking gost behind this shit working well in the morning and slow the fuck down without any cause in the afternoon no fix
So i wrote complex, great WP framework using parts of nette, latte template engin, shit tons of my code, has many usefull features. Is fast, puting barier between me and WP shit. You have no idea how fast my development is now.
Now, i writing eshop component, looking good, working great, is extendable, fast and so.
Reason 1: WP is piece of shit, woocommerce too, CMB has no fucking sense, fuck ACF and many other WP tools.
Reason 2: I'm too lazy to read.
Question: I spent months of coding, looking for ideas, and make tenths implemenations because:
1: WP is piece of shit, woocommerce too, CMB has no fucking sense, fuck ACF and many other WP tools.
2: I'm too lazy to read.
Please decide, i honestly don't know.1
How can I change a price display in WooCommerce as I have already seen several tutorials and I am following one of the article WooCommerce price display (https://cloudways.com/blog/...) to implement it step by step but still having an issues in changing price on Shop page2
On the one hand, I'm done with all of the major bugs in a piece we're getting ready to launch this month.
On the other hand, there's one lingering bug that only appears when I've got Query Monitor running, because WooCommerce throws a false positive "table does not exist" error, which it tries to backtrace through **39** layers of functions, eating all of the memory.
Turning off Query Monitor fixes this, but means I basically have to flip it off before the primary function of the software and flip it back on afterward.
Currently considering the best way to put off the WooCommerce activation for a point where there isn't so much going on...
I love the flexibility and power you get with Wordpress, WooCommerce and its entire plugin ecosystem...
BUT FUCK ME! PHP IS SHIT!!
It's like writing code by hand with pen and paper, putting it through an OCR and then compiling it. Sure, it might work if you're lucky and maybe even look cool, but good luck trying to develop a sulution with any sort of speed!3
Wrote some awesome methods in my application which writes products and their variations directly to SQL for a WooCommerce shop, avoiding uploading any images and constant handshakes for thousands of API calls for each product.
Been heavily criticised for it though as bad practice and to just use the API. I say fuck you, it's lightning fast and works well. Sure the API spec could change in a year but these methods will scale well.
I need to run wordpress on a Windows server or Windows 10 to be used for a medium sized WooCommerce site for a reason I don't want to state. What is the best way to do this. My best options seem to be :-
Docker with caddy
Linux vm with or without docker10
I extended WooCommerce functionality using gravity forms. For users to upload files. I want a script or function to automatically append order I'd to the begining of the filename on any order. I know you had the platform but ....1
Best way to troubleshoot a long ttfb on a wp woocommerce site? Yes I know wp and woo == boo. Still, a friend of mine has a shop and needs some help with it. Shared hosting, 6-7sec load for homepage, 4-5secs for product page6

Does new FM include other extension updates?
['FM' in the title should read 'FB' - sorry about that.]
Given that creating a simple form still generates about 1000 lines of CSS code, I don't think I shall use the new Form Builder (I have version 1 and have never used it since trying it out). However I do find some of the extensions which the new version replaces useful. I have a few questions:
Have the extensions (UE etc.) in the new version of FB been updated? If so, are there details of improvements/bugfixes etc.?
It's been mentioned that a later update of FB might include the option to exclude CSS generation. Is this something that's likely to be included soon?
I can see that bundling things together to create a one-click solution to a series of tasks is appealing in some respects and doubtless sells well. However the result is inevitably inflexible and cumbersome in some respects (eg producing huge amounts of redundant code). For some users I'm sure it would be preferable to have much finer control and to continue to use extensions for quite specific tasks. Eg while FB can create a complex form including a Captcha, it can't simply apply a Captcha to a form which already exists (without creating dummy files and cutting and pasting etc.). I would find it useful if it did this; as it is, it's not useful. I hope this point of view will be considered as you continue to develop your products.

Lip Syncing Pipeline
For a video game project at the Florida Interactive Entertainment Academy (FIEA), I was responsible for learning FaceFX on my own and implementing it into our art pipeline for character animation.
1) A control object is mapped and animated in FaceFX to the audio
2) The control object is imported into Maya
3) A MEL script parses the data, condensing it to one animation curve
4) The data is baked into a utility joint on export to Unity
5) In Unity, part of a card manager script parses this animation and sets the active card as it changes. This script also controls hand card swaps.
A note taking tool for Maya, Maya Notes is a 3D bookmarking notepad. When the user adds a new notes in the UI, the script will save the current camera and its position, the time range and the selection - this data is then loaded when the note button is pressed. Once created, the user may also add a URL link to each note or change the color-coded category tab.
All notes are saved within the Maya file, no external file is created.
UE4 Procedural Dungeon
A blueprints project in UE4, I created a grid-based procedural dungeon system. The user has control over the grid dimensions, room definitions and placement (random or manual), as well as various settings to affect how the corridors are generated. While not shown in this video, the room definitions use a template room definition Actor and the user may swap out the meshes used for the dungeon.
UE4 Warp Transition Effect
A Work In Progress Video, I created a material function for use in the spawning of objects, giving a warped-in effect. Cleaner video coming soon!
A friend asked me for a mailbox rig to use in his class for some animation assignments, I might have gone a tad overkill. . .
- Opens top and bottom
- Tilt forward / backward
- Tilt left / right
- Twist clockwise / counter clockwise
- Bend along Bezier Curve ( Show Bend controls )
- Global Scale setting
Facial Rig - Barbossa
A quick rendition of Barbossa from Disney Infinity, I modeled and setup a facial rig with SDKs controls for creating facial expressions.

My Three Required Gnome Extensions
Gnome is the default desktop environment for many Linux distributions, including my distro of choice, Fedora. When Gnome 3 was first released, I had to install a bunch of extensions to get a functional experience. These days, between becoming more familar with the Gnome workflow, and the Gnome team ironing out the rougher edges of the DE, I don’t need nearly as many extensions to get going. However, there are still three which I do not think I could live without.
Gnome extensions are installable enhancements to the Gnome desktop environment. They are obtained by going to the gnome extensions website with a supported browser, installing the plugin, and switching the tab of desired extensions to “On”. Extensions can be further configured using the Tweaks desktop application.
My Must-Have 3
My first required extension is Caffeine, which adds a little coffee cup icon to the status bar. When the cup is empty, the system behaves as normal. However, when clicked, the cup ‘fills up’ and caffeine will prevent the system from suspending the display.
This is useful when giving presentations to stop the screen from dimming off during longer slides, or during Q&A time. I also use this if I have a secondary computer displaying information, to prevent it from repeatedly logging me out. I can temporarily pause my sleep settings, without having to actually go in and change them.
Top Icons Plus
Many applications still expect an icon to be visible, in a task bar, where the application can to store settings in. However, Gnome will often hide these icons, making them less accessible. Top icons plus moves these icons back to the top status bar, like many people expect.
I use this extension so that I can more easily see and control applications on my system which assume the icons to be visible. Top Icons plus also allows me to choose where on the bar I want them located (left, center, right). I usually just set them to the ‘right’ side of the screen, with all the other junk.
Sound Input & Output Device Chooser
Lastly, the Sound Input & Output Device Chooser plugin adds a drop-down menu to the top bar where audio input and output devices can be easily switched. Otherwise, I usually need to do this from the sound section of the system settings.
As someone that switches between speakers and headphones all day, has 100% remote meetings, and usually more than one microphone device connected to their computer, this is probably my most required plug-in. It makes my life easier, and allows me to react quicker in a meeting if I notice that an incorrect audio device is selected.
While I still use other extensions, these are the big three. I think default gnome has gotten surprisingly usable, but I would probably struggle to use it if these extensions were no longer available to me. So, to the Gnome team… please consider adding the functionality of these items as defaults in Gnome. If not, I understand. However, if that is the case… Gnome community, please don’t let these extensions become deprecated! Thanks :)

Instant Rails with NetBeans
Two weeks ago I introduced myself to Ruby on Rails, which was, technically, JRuby on Rails. Based on some constructive comments by David Rupp, I've spent some time over the past week doing some additional research on rails. In the process I began to look at pure Ruby (not JRuby).
Now, I'm sorry, this blog entry is somewhat Windows biased, which feels odd for a guy that normally talks about Java. However, playing with Ruby for the past week I realized the easiest way to get up and running with Rails on Windows is to use Instant Rails, which contains everything you need in one nice package: Ruby, Rails, Mongrel and MySQL.
Setting Things Up
- Download and extract Instant Rails.
- Run InstantRails.exe. The first time InstantRails.exe runs, it will want to update the paths in the Rails configuration files to the location you extracted the archive. InstantRails starts Apache (which you can stop) and MySQL.
- Create an environment variable named RUBY_HOME that points to the Ruby location within Instant Rails. For example: C:\Software\Ruby\InstantRails-1.6-win\InstantRails\ruby.
- Add %RUBY_HOME%\bin to your Path environment variable.
- Download and install NetBeans 6.0 M7 or greater.
- Download and save the MySQL JDBC driver somewhere on your workstation. We need this to use the NetBeans Database tools with MySQL.
- Start NetBeans and switch to the Runtime tab (Ctrl+5).
- Expand the Databases > Drivers node and right-click to add a new driver.
- Browse to the location where you saved the MySQL JDBC driver. NetBeans will detect the driver class and recommend a name:
- Right-click the MySQL (Connector/J driver) now listed under Drivers and select Connect Using. Instant Rails comes with a sample database called cookbook, that we can use to test our connection:
- If all goes well, you should be able see your connection and browse the database:
- Install the Ruby module from the update center (found in the Features folder. Many dependant modules will come along). The Ruby module requires a restart of the IDE.
- The Ruby module also installs JRuby and Rails. However, we're going to point NetBeans at the location where Instant Rails installed Ruby. Open the Options dialog Under Miscellaneous, expand the Ruby Installation node and point NetBeans to the version of these files found in instant Rails installation
Test the Installation
Instant Rails comes with a sample cookbook application which we'll set up in NetBeans. This will also serve as an example of how to set up existing rails projects you already have in NetBeans.
- Create a new Ruby on Rails Project From Existing Sources.
- Browse to your Instant Rails installation directory where you'll find a rails_apps folder. Select the cookbook folder under rails_apps and click Finish.
- The project will open in NetBeans and the Mongrel server will be started (The Output window says WEBrick, but it's actually Mongrel that's running. Also, the server is started even though the Output window just says STARTING. This issue has been logged.).
- Try the following: http://127.0.0.1:3000 and you should see the Online Cookbook.
- If you run into problems, check that you can verify the Instant Rails setup from the command line.
Create Your Own Rails Project
- Create a new Ruby on Rails Application project and click Finish.
- Right-click the Controllers folder and select Generate. Name the controller MyTest. NetBeans will run the script to generate the controller.
- Open the MyTestController class and add the following:
- Press F6 to run the project and browse to http://127.0.0.1:3000/My_Test. You get a Routing Error.
This is because the Mongrel (and WEBrick for that matter) web server is only capable of handling one application at a time. It needs to be restarted when we switch to another application.
- Since we're letting NetBeans start the server, the only way I know to kill it is to kill the ruby.exe process using the Windows Task Manager. Kill ruby.exe, press F6 to run the project, and browse to http://127.0.0.1:3000/My_Test.
Another Way To Run Mongrel
Since NetBeans doesn't yet provide the best integration with Mongrel, you may prefer to run it from the command line. Let's see how this works.
- First, kill the ruby.exe again started by NetBeans.
- Open the command prompt to the location of your Rails application above. It should be named RailsApplication1 if you accepted the default name.
- Type ruby script/server (if ruby isn't found, make sure you set up your path correctly as described under setup above).
Now you see there's at least a cleaner way to stop the server.
- To run the cookbook application, CTRL-C to stop mongrel, switch to the cookbook directory and run ruby script/server again.

https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/213815/identify-area-within-one-shapefile-not-in-another-shapefile-in-r
|
code
|
I have two shapefiles. I would like to identify the part of the first shapefile that doesn't overlap with the second shapefile. Then I would like to clip that part of the first shapefile and make it its own shapefile to merge with the second shapefile in R. I have tried
union in the raster package and
gIntersection in the rgeos package but haven't had any luck.
After trying to use the answer below from Simbamangu I think the reason the answer is not working for my shapefiles is that the coordinates for my two shapefiles are formatted differently. The answer works with the example data.
Shapefile 1 output from attributes Shapefile 2 output from attributes
$bbox $bbox min max min max x -67.33333 -66.33739 x 639772.8 723467.9 y 40.58634 41.50000 y 4499609.0 4597064.1
Is there a way to format the coordinates so both shapefiles are formatted the same way and could this be the reason gIntersection is not working.
intersect1<-rgeos::gIntersection(shapefile1, shpaefile2) NULL
I figured out to format the coordinates from the 2 shapefiles into a similar format. The gDifference function doesn't seem to be identifying all of the differences between the two shapefiles. See output below.
Output from getting answer to work. The only part of the Shapefile 1 identified as outside of Shapefile 2 is the little sliver of green, but the 2 sections in white should also be identified.
# Create SpatialPolygons objects polygon1 <- readWKT("POLYGON((-180 -20, -140 55, 10 0, -140 -60, -180 -20))") polygon2 <- readWKT("POLYGON((-180 -20, -140 70, 10 0, -140 -60, -180 -20))")

1 - 3: Yes.
4: Once your Configurable ODBC DSP is set up, you'll be able to search for users in that directory the same as you would in AD. You can then use the Add Users button in Section Access Management and simply select your new DSP as the directory where you want to search for users.
5. The v11 server reference manual is kind of useless for this (and for most other things too). Check out the old v10 reference manual at page 253. This post also seems pretty good: http://community.qlik.com/thread/31302
I have done the Configurable ODBC in DSC but when we mouse over on the star symbol in that console it showing Exception When connecting to Data Source.
We need to consider the above exception.
We are unable see the ODBC connection in the Users ----> User Management tab drop down.
Please can you help me
