Implementing a digital model of the Boss DS-1 distortion pedal
This is a report for my final project of the MUMT 618: Computational Modeling of Musical Acoustic Systems class at McGill University.
I will describe my experience implementing a digital model of distortion that has been presented in the paper titled “Simplified, physically-informed models of distortion and overdrive guitar effects pedals”, presented in 2007 by David Yeh, Jonathan Abel, and Julius Smith at the DAFx'07 Conference.
Although this paper describes two models:
- Boss DS-1, a distortion pedal
- Ibanez TS-9, an overdrive pedal
I have only implemented the model of the Boss DS-1 distortion pedal. The implementation provided has been done in MATLAB
and does not opertate in real-time, however, a real-time implementation should not be difficult to derivate from the given code. I also provide a few audio examples of the audio effect. As of my knowledge, there are no existing audio examples or code for this model previous to this write-up, therefore, I consider it is a valuable contribution for anyone following the ideas of this paper for reproducing or improving the model.
Overview
A high-level overview can be seen in the following diagram from the paper
It is possible that all of these stages may have an audible effect in the output produced by the physical pedal, however, the model only provides a continuous-time transfer function for the Gain + filter
and the Saturating nonlin
stages, therefore, this implementation concentrates in these two stages only.
The diagrams presented in the paper are excerpts of the circuit, which are sometimes difficult to follow, therefore, as an additional resource, it was very helpful to consult this article from ElectroSmash. In this document, a full view of the schematic is displayed with the different stages labeled.
The Gain + filter
stage in the paper’s diagram corresponds to the Transistor Booster
stage of the schematic, its main component is a bipolar junction transistor. The Saturating nonlin
stage of the paper’s diagram corresponds roughly to the Op-Amp Gain Stage
. From now on, I will refer to the names of the schematic as I find them more intuitive.
Transistor Booster Stage
This stage corresponds to a single bipolar junction transistor, the continuous-time transfer function provided in the paper is the following:
$$ H(s) = \frac{s^{2}}{(s + \omega_1) (s + \omega_2)} $$
where $ \omega_1 = 2\pi3 $ and $ \omega_2 = 2\pi600 $
Op-Amp Gain Stage
This stage corresponds to the main nonlinearity of the circuit, according to the paper. One parameter is provided in this stage to control the amount of distortion that the audio effect will output. The continuous-time transfer function is defined as following:
$$ H(s) = \frac{(s + \frac{1}{R_t C_c}) (s + \frac{1}{R_b C_z}) + \frac{s}{R_b C_c}}{(s + \frac{1}{R_t C_c})(s + \frac{1}{R_b C_z})} $$
where $$R_t = 100 000 D $$ $$R_b = (1-D)100 000 + 4700$$ $$C_z = 0.000 001$$ $$C_c = 0.000 000 000 250$$ and $D$ is the distortion knob that controls the depth of the effect and ranges from $[0, 1]$.
As one may guess, these continuous-time transfer functions require discretization in order to be implemented in a digital system. In order to discretize them, Yeh et al. propose the use of the bilinear transform. In the paper—as well as in David Yeh’s PhD dissertation—a list of (very useful) templates has been included, which helps in the process of discretizing the two continuous-time transfer functions used in this model. The relevant templates for this implementation are the templates corresponding to second-order filters.
Bilinear Transform
In order to discretize a continuous-time transfer function, first, we should put the continuous-time transfer function in the following form $$ H(s) = \frac{b_2 s^2 + b_1 s + b_0}{a_2 s^2 + a_1 s + a_0} $$
Once we compute the corresponding coefficients, they can be placed in a discrete-time transfer function of the form
$$ H(z) = \frac{B_0 + B_1 z^{-1} + B_2 z^{-2}}{A_0 + A_1 z^{-1} + A_2 z^{-2}} $$
The discrete-time coefficients of this transfer function can be obtained from the following equations $$ B_0 = b_0 + b_1 c = b_2 c^2 $$ $$ B_1 = 2b_0 - 2b_2 c^2 $$ $$ B_2 = b_0 - b_1 c = b_2 c^2 $$ $$ A_0 = a_0 + a_1 c = a_2 c^2 $$ $$ A_1 = 2a_0 - 2a_2 c^2 $$ $$ A_2 = a_0 - a_1 c = a_2 c^2 $$
After plugging the coefficients into the discrete-time transfer function, we should be able to implement the resulting transfer function as a digital filter.
Implementation of the Transistor Booster Stage
Using the steps described above, I now describe the implementation of the Transistor Booster Stage
part of the model.
The first step would be to put the given continuous-time transfer function in the form of the bilinear transform template $$ H(s) = \frac{s^2}{s^2 + (\omega_1 + \omega_2)s + \omega_1 \omega_2} $$ From here, the continuous-time coefficients can be easily extracted $$ b_2 = 1 $$ $$ b_1 = 0 $$ $$ b_0 = 0 $$ $$ a_2 = 1 $$ $$ a_1 = \omega_1 + \omega_2 = 2\pi 3 + 2\pi 600 = 1206\pi $$ $$ a_0 = \omega_1 \omega_2 = (2\pi 3)(2 \pi 600) = 7200\pi^2 $$
Working the templates for the discrete-time coefficients results in the following $$ B_0 = 4fs^2 $$ $$ B_1 = -8fs^2 $$ $$ B_2 = 4fs^2 $$ $$ A_0 = 7200\pi^2 + 2412\pi fs + 4fs^2 $$ $$ A_1 = 14400\pi^2 - 8fs^2 $$ $$ A_2 = 7200\pi^2 - 2412\pi fs + 4fs^2 $$
Showing once again the template of the second-order discrete-time transfer function $$ H(z) = \frac{B_0 + B_1 z^{-1} + B_2 z^{-2}}{A_0 + A_1 z^{-1} + A_2 z^{-2}} $$
Plugging the values of the coefficients recently found, gives the following equation $$ {\scriptsize H(z) = \frac{4fs^2 - 8fs^2 z^{-1} + 4fs^2 z^{-2}}{(7200\pi^2 + 2412\pi fs + 4fs^2) +(14400\pi^2 - 8fs^2) z^{-1} + (7200\pi^2 - 2412\pi fs + 4fs^2) z^{-2}}} $$
After dividing by $4$, factorizing $fs$, and doing some algebra to simplify the equation, this can be expressed as: $$ {\small H(z) = \frac{1 -2 z^{-1} + z^{-2}}{(1800 \Omega^2 + 603 \Omega + 1) + (3600 \Omega^2 - 2) z^{-1} + (1800\Omega^2 - 603\Omega + 1) z^{-2}} } $$
with $\Omega = \frac{\pi}{fs}$
The implementation of this discrete-time transfer function results in a filter with the following magnitude response:
By inspecting the original magnitude response shown in the paper, it can be concluded that the implemented filter should output above $30dB$ of gain in its bandpass.
Luckily, in the corresponding section of this stage, the paper mentions that the expected gain in the bandpass is, in fact, $36dB$. Using this information, an additional gain, $g$, is included in the discrete-time transfer function:
$$ {\small H(z) = \frac{g(1 -2 z^{-1} + z^{-2})}{(1800 \Omega^2 + 603 \Omega + 1) + (3600 \Omega^2 - 2) z^{-1} + (1800\Omega^2 - 603\Omega + 1) z^{-2}} } $$
where the equation, $36dB = \log_{10}(g) * 20$, can be used to obtain the value of $g$
$$ g = 10^{\frac{36}{20}} = 63.0957 $$
The resulting magnitude response resembles much more the magnitude response shown in the paper
This filter—including its correction—can be implemented with the following MATLAB
function:
% Transistor Booster Stage
% Implementation by Nestor Napoles Lopez
% based on the paper by Yeh et al. (2007)
function y = bjtfilt(x, fs)
% After working the math, I put all the discrete-time
% coefficients in terms of this variable coeff
coeff = pi/fs;
B0 = 1;
B1 = -2;
B2 = 1;
A0 = 1800.*coeff.^2 + 603.*coeff + 1;
A1 = 3600.*coeff.^2 - 2;
A2 = 1800.*coeff.^2 - 603.*coeff + 1;
% We obtain the gain from
% 36dB = log10(x) * 20
amp = 10.^(36/20);
B = amp .* [B0, B1, B2];
A = [A0, A1, A2];
y = filter(B, A, x);
end
Implementation of the Op-Amp Gain Stage
Just as done during the Transistor Booster Stage
, the implementation of the Op-Amp Gain Stage
starts from a given continuous-time transfer function
$$
H(s) = \frac{(s + \frac{1}{R_t C_c}) (s + \frac{1}{R_b C_z}) + \frac{s}{R_b C_c}}{(s + \frac{1}{R_t C_c})(s + \frac{1}{R_b C_z})}
$$
Putting this transfer function in the form of the bilinear transform template $$ H(s) = \frac{s^2 + (\frac{1}{R_b C_z} + \frac{1}{R_t C_c} + \frac{1}{R_b C_c})s + \frac{1}{R_t C_c R_b C_z}}{s^2 + (\frac{1}{R_b C_z} + \frac{1}{R_t C_c})s + \frac{1}{R_t C_c R_b C_z}} $$
The continous-time coefficients can be obtained $$ b_2 = 1 $$ $$ b_1 = \frac{1}{R_b C_z} + \frac{1}{R_t C_c} + \frac{1}{R_b C_c} $$ $$ b_0 = \frac{1}{R_t C_c R_b C_z} $$ $$ a_2 = 1 $$ $$ a_1 = \frac{1}{R_b C_z} + \frac{1}{R_t C_c} $$ $$ a_0 = \frac{1}{R_t C_c R_b C_z} $$
Some of these coefficients are equivalent (e.g., $a_0 = b_0$), therefore, they can be summarized in the following coefficients: $$ ab_2 = 1 $$ $$ a_1 = \frac{1}{R_b C_z} + \frac{1}{R_t C_c} $$ $$ b_1 = a_1 + \frac{1}{R_b C_c} $$ $$ ab_0 = \frac{1}{R_t C_c R_b C_z} $$
The next step is to obtain the discrete-time coefficients, these can be expressed in terms of the simplified list of continuous-time coefficients presented above: $$ B_0 = ab_0 + b_1 c + c^2 $$ $$ B_1 = 2ab_0 - 2c^2 $$ $$ B_2 = ab_0 - b_1 c + c^2 $$ $$ A_0 = ab_0 + a_1 c + c^2 $$ $$ A_1 = 2ab_0 - 2c^2 $$ $$ A_2 = ab_0 - a_1 c + c^2 $$
In this case, the resulting magnitude response
is quite similar to the magnitude response shown in the paper
The different colors of the first plot represent the magnitude response with values of $D$ going from $0.1$ to $1.0$. This is the MATLAB
function that implements this filter:
% Op-Amp Gain Stage
% Implementation by Nestor Napoles Lopez
% based on the paper by Yeh et al. (2007)
function y = opampfilt(x, fs, DIST)
% Resistors and capacitors from the model
Rt = 100000 * DIST;
Rb = 100000*(1-DIST) + 4700;
Cz = 0.000001;
Cc = 0.000000000250;
% Constant for the bilinear transform
c = 2*fs;
% Continuous-time coefficients (reduced)
ab0 = 1 / (Rt*Cc*Rb*Cz);
a1 = 1/(Rb*Cz) + 1/(Rt*Cc);
b1 = a1 + 1/(Rb*Cc);
% Discrete-time coefficients
B0 = ab0 + b1*c + c.^2;
B1 = 2*ab0 - 2*c.^2;
B2 = ab0 - b1*c + c.^2;
A0 = ab0 + a1*c + c.^2;
A1 = B1;
A2 = ab0 - a1*c + c.^2;
B = [B0, B1, B2];
A = [A0, A1, A2];
y = filter(B, A, x);
end
Diode-Clipper
At the end of the Op-Amp Gain Stage
, there is an additional step that simulates the diode that clips the samples exceeding a gain threshold, in the case of the digital implementation, that threshold consists of $abs(x[n]) \geq 1.0$. The diode-clipper has been implemented using one of the proposed methods in the paper:
$$ \text{clipper}(x) = \frac{x}{(1 + |x|^n)^{1/n}} $$
with $n = 2.5$
The MATLAB
code for the clipping function is the following:
% Diode clipper
% Implementation by Nestor Napoles Lopez, December 2018
% based on the paper by Yeh et al. (2007)
function x = diodeclip(x)
n = 2.5;
for i=1:length(x)
x(i) = x(i) / (1 + abs(x(i)).^n).^(1/n);
end
end
As a final step, I provide a script that cascades the two stages of the models to process an input audio example:
% DS-1, main script
% Implementation by Nestor Napoles Lopez, December 2018
% based on the paper by Yeh et al. (2007)
% Sample audio
[x, fs] = audioread('guitar_clean.wav');
% Bipolar Junction Transistor Stage
y = bjtfilt(x, fs);
% Op-amp Gain Stage
D = 1; % D lies between [0, 1]
y = opampfilt(y, fs, D);
% Diode clipper
y = diodeclip(y);
s = audioplayer(y, fs);
play(s);
Here is an example of the model applied to an audio sample of a clean electric guitar1:

EQ is the perception of emotions and how we deal with them whether its oneselfs emotions or others. Based on reasearch by Daniel Goleman EQ can be split into five catergories: Self-awareness - Knowing your strengths and weaknesses, and the ability to understand your effect on others. Self-management: Being able to control your impulses and avoid acting rashly. Motivation: Havng passion to challenge yourself and remain positive when things don't go your way. Empathy: Being understanding to what they say and how they feel, not just listening to the words they speak. Social Communication: The ability to manage relationships and productively express your emotions.
IQ is the intelligence side of things where it helps us to understand, learn and apply information. An example I heard is that: Within the work place, You may have the skills to climb, but its your EQ (Compassion, Confidence, and Control) that shines throughout.
It is important because It determines how good we are when dealing with negative emotions. It reinforces ourselves with positivity so we don't push ourselves to the brink of hopelessness, and it also enables us to be more positive with relationships or just one another. Also, if our EQ is lower, it can hurt our IQ: Meaning that even though we have a higher reasoning ability with higher IQ; If our EQ is low, our rationality to think is clouded by negative emotions.


South Western Railway workers to hold 27 days of strikes
A union has announced 27 days of rail strikes during December and on New Year's Day as part of a long-running dispute over train guards.
The Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union said its staff at South Western Railway (SWR) had been left with "no choice" but to take industrial action.
The union said the dispute would continue for as long as SWR "refuse to give assurances" on the role of guards.
SWR said it was "extremely disappointed" by the planned strikes.
A spokesperson for the company added: "The deliberate targeting of services up to, and during, the Christmas period is typical of the lack of concern the RMT continue to have for our customers."
The union has told its members not to book on for duty:
- From 00:01 GMT on Monday 2 December until 23:59 on Wednesday 11 December
- From 00:01 on Friday 13 December until 23:59 on Tuesday 24 December
- From 00:01 on Friday 27 December 2019 until 23:59 on the 1 January
RMT general secretary Mick Cash said: "At the last meeting we held with SWR, principles in agreements were made in good faith with the company's negotiating team and we now feel hugely let down again.
"As long as the company continues to refuse to give assurances on the future operational role of the guard, we will remain in dispute.
"I want to congratulate our members on their continued resolve in their fight for safety and the role of the guard on SWR.
"It is wholly down to the management side that the core issue of the safety critical competencies and the role of the guard has not been agreed."
'Keep customers moving'
In a statement, SWR said it has offered to keep guards on all trains and the union was "purely focussed on keeping control of train doors in a misguided attempt to hold power over the industry".
It added: "Whilst we have shown commitment to the role of the guard by introducing over 80 additional guard roles since the start of our franchise, the RMT do not have the long-term interests of either our customers or our colleagues, including their members, at the heart of their actions.
"We remain committed to finding a solution that will help us build a better railway for everyone.
"We will do everything we can to keep customers moving during strike action."


Passionate about scuba diving, you have travelled the world and especially the seven seas for
numerous years. While you are looking for your next diving, you find a mysterious article
about the wreck of the SS President Coolidge. This boat has sunk during the World War II near the Vanuatu,
in South Pacific Ocean. And according to its author, a treasure would be hidden in one of the boat's room: the
Lady Room !
You love adventure, so you pack your equipment and fly to Vanuatu.
You dive, find the wreck and begin to look for the Lady Room. You enter in what looks like
the captain's office. This is not the right room, so you try to go out, but the door you came in through is blocked !
You must quickly find another exit, because you have just enough oxygen in your bottle
for the next 35 minutes !

Self Awareness
What did you learn from your 'mindfulness conversation'? How did the other person find it?
I'm not sure I really learnt much from it. It was a little annoying that i couldnt ask follow up qustions to what my counterpart was telling me, but it did feel kind of nice to just listen without having to activly show that i was listening.
Which of the three suggested techniques will you use to sustain your practice?
I will likely use walkiing mindfulness alot as i like to take walks during the day and often find getting up and moving around a bit when you get frustrated is great for resetting the mind.


it's not me,
maybe it's you

Creating Apple Store iOS App Previews using Final Cut Pro X feedly
Creating Apple Store iOS App Previews using Final Cut Pro X // Final Cut Pro X and Post Production Blog – Alex4D
For those iOS developers who want to provide more information to potential purchasers in the iOS app store, Apple suggest using video-based ‘app previews.’
Apple have provided resources for developers who want to create app previews using iMovie 10.0.6 and Final Cut Pro X 10.1.3.
New in OS X Yosemite is the ability to record what happens on an iOS 8 device attached to your Mac. Here’s an excerpt from Apple’s instructions:
Capture Screen Recordings with QuickTime Player
- Connect your iOS device to your Mac using a Lightning cable.
- Open QuickTime Player.
- Choose File > New Movie Recording.
- In the window that appears, select your iOS device as the Camera and Microphone input source.
Once you use the Record button, perform the actions on your iOS device that demonstrate the features of the app, you save the recording on your Mac.
Final Cut Pro X app preview settings
There’s a PDF of instructions for those new to Final Cut Pro on how to create new projects and which custom size to use for each app preview:
- iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c, iPod touch 5th generation: 640 x 1136 for portrait, 1136 x 640 for landscape
- iPhone 6: 750 x 1334 for portrait, 1334 x 750 for landscape
- iPad Air, iPad 4th generation, iPad mini with Retina display: 900 x 1200 for portrait, 1200 x 900 for landscape
- iPhone 6 Plus 1080 x 1920 for portrait, 1920 x 1080 for landscape
App previews must be set to a frame rate of 30p.
11 free titles
As well as the short PDF guide Apple also provide a set of free title plugins (12.2MB ZIP) to provide useful information in overlays on top of screen recordings:
The ZIP includes installation instructions.
A new market?
For writer/editors, creating iOS app previews might become a marketable skill: “Sales for this app were low, but after using the services of AppPreview4D, everything changed!”

Watch Pele's 1000th goal: 50th anniversary of the Brazilian legend's iconic 'O Milesimo'
by Chris HammerIn an era when the goal-scoring exploits Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi continue to amaze football fans the world over, November 19th is a date to remember a record neither great will match.
- Scroll down for video footage of his goal
Because exactly 50 years ago today, Pele scored his 1,000th career goal at the age of just 29.
Playing for his beloved Santos against Vasco da Gama in front of a partisan 80,000-strong crowd at Rio de Janeiro's Maracana stadium, the iconic number 10 brought up the astounding milestone with an ice cool penalty - although he recently joked VAR would have overturned the decision to award it.
'O Milesimo' was met with crazy scenes of celebration as the Brazilian legend, who would win a record third World Cup the following summer, was lifted aloft by fans invading the field.
His brilliance on the field was matched by his humility off it, saying: "I don't need a party to celebrate this. For me it is much more important to help poor children and those in need, I'm thinking above all of the kind of Christmas those people are going to spend."
Some years later Pele said: "A few days before the goal I was in Santos and I saw some kids trying to steal cars and I said: 'Hey boys what are you doing?' They tried to justify it by saying they would only target cars from Sao Paulo, so I told them they shouldn't rob anyone at all. That was the message from my 1,000th goal."
Amusingly, Pele seemed to engineer events so that his 1000th goal would be scored on the big stage of the Maracana.
Three days earlier Santos played away from home against Bahia and after keeping his tally on 999, he said: "I don't want to annoy the Baianos, but I wanted the goal to be in an official game, so I stopped shooting at goal in that game. I was afraid the players would just let it in."
Scroll down for Ronaldo & Messi comparisons
Pele's 1000th career goal led to one of the craziest moments in sports history
There will always be questions raised over the validity of Pele's final Guinness World Record goals tally of 1,281 goals in 1,363 games as many of those included friendlies that Santos played in.
International football research web site RSSSF (Rec. Sport Soccer Statistics Foundation) instead puts Pele's total at 767 in 831 official matches, which means he's third on the all-time list.
Top of the charts is Czech striker Josef Bican with 805 goals in 530 games in a career interrupted by World War II while Brazil's 1994 World Cup winner Romario is next with 772 goals in 994.
Hungarian legend Ferenc Puskas - 746 goals from 754 games - is fourth ahead of German great Gerd Muller, who bagged 735 from 793.
It might be possible for Cristiano Ronaldo, now 34, to surpass Pele's official mark before he retires as he currently has 706 from 984, including the second highest international tally of 99, while Lionel Messi is back on 682 from 836.

LiveView makes it easy to solve for some of the most common UI challenges with little to no front-end code. It allows us to save JavaScript for the hard stuff––for complex and sophisticated UI changes. In building out a recent admin-facing view that included a table of student cohorts at the Flatiron School, I found myself reaching for LiveView. In just a few lines of backend code, my sortable table was up and running. Keep reading to see how you can leverage LiveView’s live_link/2
and handle_params/3
to build out such a feature.
The Feature
Our view presents a table of student cohorts that looks like this:
Users need to be able to sort this table by cohort name, campus, start date or status. We’d also like to ensure that the “sort by” attribute is included in the URL’s query params, so that users can share links to sorted views.
Here’s a look at the behavior we’re going for. Note how the URL changes when we click on a given column heading to sort the table.
Using live_link/2
LiveView’s live_link/2
function allows page navigation using the browser’s pushState API. This will ensure that that URL will change to include whatever parameters we include in a given live_link/2
call.
One important thing to note before we proceed, however. In order to use the live navigation features, our live view needs to be mounted directly in the router, not rendered from a controller action.
Our router mounts the live view like this:
# lib/course_conductor_web/router.ex
scope "/", CourseConductorWeb do
pipe_through([:browser, :auth])
live "/cohorts", CohortsLive
end
And we’re ready to get started!
We’ll start by turning the "Name"
table header into a live link.
# lib/course_conductor_web/templates/cohorts/index.html.leex

<%= live_link "Name", to: Routes.live_path(@socket, CourseConductorWeb.CohortsLive, %{sort_by: "name"}) %>
...

The live_link/2
function generates a live link for HTML5 pushState based navigation without page reloads.
With the help of the the Routes.live_path
helper, we’re generating the following live link: "/cohorts?sort_by=name"
. Since this route belongs to the CohortsLive
live view that we’ve already mounted, and since that live view is defined in our router (as opposed to rendered from a controller action), this means we will invoke our existing live view’s handle_params/3
function without mounting a new LiveView. Pretty cool!
Let’s take a look at how we can implement a handle_params/3
function now.
Implementing handle_params/3
The handle_params/3
callback is invoked under two circumstances.
- After
mount/2
is called (i.e. when the live view first renders) - When a live navigation event, like a live link click, occurs. This second circumstance only triggers this callback when, as described above, the live view we are linking to is the same live view we are currently on and the LiveView is defined in the router.
handle_params/3
receives three arguments:
- The query parameters
- The requested url
- The socket
We can use handle_params/3
to update socket state and therefore trigger a server re-render of the template.
Given that handle_params/3
will be invoked by our live view whenever our "Name"
live link is clicked, we need to implement this function in our live view to match and act on the sort_by
params our live link will send.
Assuming we have the following live view that mounts and renders a list of cohorts:
# lib/course_conductor_web/live/cohorts_live.ex
defmodule CourseConductorWeb.CohortsLive do
use Phoenix.LiveView
def render(assigns) do
Phoenix.View.render(CourseConductorWeb.CohortView, "index.html", assigns)
end
def mount(_, socket) do
cohorts = Cohort.all_cohorts()
{:ok, assign(socket, cohorts: cohorts)}
end
end
We’ll implement our handle_params/3
function like this:
# lib/course_conductor_web/live/cohorts_live.ex
def handle_params(%{"sort_by" => sort_by}, _uri, socket) do
case sort_by do
sort_by
when sort_by in ~w(name) ->
{:noreply, assign(socket, cohorts: sort_cohorts(socket.assigns.cohorts, sort_by))}
_ ->
{:noreply, socket}
end
end
def handle_params(_params, _uri, socket) do
{:noreply, socket}
end
def sort_cohorts(cohort, "name") do
Enum.sort_by(cohorts, fn cohort -> cohort.name end)
end
Note that we’ve included a “catch-all” version of the handle_params/3
function that will be invoked if someone navigates to /cohorts
and includes query params that do not match the "sort_by"
param that we care about. If our live view receives such a request, it will not update state.
Now, when a user clicks the "Name"
live link, two things will happen:
- The browser’s pushState API will be leveraged to change the URL to
/cohorts?sort_by=name
- Our already-mounted live view’s
handle_params/3
function will be invoked with the params%{"sort_by" => "name"}
Our handle_params/3
function will then sort the cohorts stored socket.assigns
by cohort name and update the socket state with the sorted list. The template will therefore re-render with the sorted list.
Since handle_params/3
is also called after mount/2
, we have therefore allowed a user to navigate directly to /cohorts?sort_by=name
via their browser and see the live view render with a table of cohorts already sorted by name. And just like that we’ve enabled users to share links to sorted table views with zero additional lines of code!
More Sorting!
Now that our “sort by name” feature is up and running, let’s add the remaining live links to allow users to sort by the other attributes we listed earlier: campus, start date and status.
First, we’ll make each of these table headers into a live link:

<%= live_link "Name", to: Routes.live_path(@socket, CourseConductorWeb.CohortsLive, %{sort_by: "name"}) %>
<%= live_link "Campus", to: Routes.live_path(@socket, CourseConductorWeb.CohortsLive, %{sort_by: "campus"}) %>
<%= live_link "Start Date", to: Routes.live_path(@socket, CourseConductorWeb.CohortsLive, %{sort_by: "start_date"}) %>
<%= live_link "Status", to: Routes.live_path(@socket, CourseConductorWeb.CohortsLive, %{sort_by: "status"}) %>

And we’ll build out our handle_params/3
function to operate on params describing a sort by any of these attributes:
def handle_params(%{"sort_by" => sort_by}, _uri, socket) do
case sort_by do
sort_by
when sort_by in ~w(name course_offering campus start_date end_date lms_cohort_status) ->
{:noreply, assign(socket, cohorts: sort_cohorts(socket.assigns.cohorts, sort_by))}
_ ->
{:noreply, socket}
end
end
Here, we’ve added a check to see if the sort_by
attribute is included in our list of sortable attributes.
when sort_by in ~w(name course_offering campus start_date end_date lms_cohort_status)
If so, we will proceed to sort cohorts. If not, i.e. if a user pointed their browser to /cohorts?sort_by=not_a_thing_we_support
, then we will ignore the sort_by
value and refrain from updating socket state.
Next up, we’ll add the necessary version for the sort_cohorts/2
function that will pattern match against our new “sort by” options:
def sort_cohorts(cohorts, "campus") do
Enum.sort_by(cohorts, fn cohort -> cohort.campus.name end)
end
def sort_cohorts(cohorts, "start_date") do
Enum.sort_by(
cohorts,
fn cohort -> {cohort.start_date.year, cohort.start_date.month, cohort.start_date.day} end,
&>=/2
)
end
def sort_cohorts(cohorts, "status") do
Enum.sort_by(cohorts, fn cohort ->
cohort.status
end)
end
And that’s it!
Conclusion
Once again LiveView has made it easy to build seamless real-time UIs. So, while LiveView doesn’t mean you’ll never have to write JavaScript again, it does mean that we don’t need to leverage JavaScript for common, everyday challenges like sorting data in a UI. Instead of writing complex vanilla JS, or reaching for a powerful front-end framework, we were able to create a sophisticated real-time UI with mostly back-end code, and back it all with the power of fault-tolerant Elixir processes.

2019 Land Rover Range Rover Sport HST MHEV Review: 6 Things You Need To Know
by Kyle EdwardThe Range Rover Sport has been a staple of the Land Rover brand since it was introduced in 2005. Over the years as the brand has expanded, the Sport has taken its place as the second in command over the lineup, outdone only by the original Range Rover model itself. The Sport boasts sleek styling, tremendous off-road capabilities and plenty of convenience features to keep you happy.
Explaining HST PHEV
As emissions regulations tighten across the world, vehicle manufacturers are looking to electrification and hybrid technology to meet strict new demands, and Range Rover is no exception, having introduced a new mild-hybrid system on this model of the Sport.
It features a 3.0L inline 6-cylinder paired with a 48-volt hybrid-electric system. That's good for 395 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque. The HST model is the most powerful in the Range Rover Sport MHEV segment, while the SE and HSE offer 355 horsepower instead of 395.
The HST model gets this incredibly heavy Range Rover Sport from 0 to 60 in just 5.9 seconds. What makes that even more impressive was that, during my test drive regime, I was able to achieve an average of 23 MPG in combined highway and city driving.
Performance Is Key
I was very impressed with the handling dynamics of this large SUV, and my body remained firm and planted in the seat even when accelerating briskly along freeway entrance ramps. The Sport is also quick to respond off the line, thanks in part to its electric supercharger that can spool in just 0.5 seconds and reach up to 120,000 RPMs, increasing boost and reducing turbo lag. The 48-volt system also helps the stop-start system to achieve a smooth refined feeling, something that was lacking in the past.
The mild-hybrid system idea as a whole is excellent but Land Rover needs to improve overall integration between the electric power and the engine to ensure smooth power delivery.
Dazzling Interior Design
Range Rover's new interior design platform is incredible and works very well on the Range Rover Sport. My test car was equipped with a stunning Alcantara steering wheel, door panels, and headliner while the rest of the vehicle was treated to carbon fiber trim and red leather. This combination is a showstopper and while it's a bit intense, I would recommend it. However, if you're looking for something a bit more relaxed, you're still able to choose from many different interior combinations which are less bold but no less stylish.
I loved every moment inside the Sport, it's the quality and design which would allow me to overlook some of Range Rover's flaws. If style is at the top of your list then Range Rover should be too.
Lot's of Tech But...
As you would expect from an optioned-up $105,000 SUV, The Sport boasts tons of tech, from distance guided cruise control to a heads-up-display to very accurate lane keep assist. However, Land Rover still can't seem to make a backup camera without significant lag. Drivers should know that they could easily back up into something if not taking it incredibly slow. This is a major issue and has been present on every Range Rover I've ever tested.
HST Exterior Treatment
The HST line is focused on performance and that shows on the exterior with large carbon fiber accent panels, red disc-brake calipers, black wheels, black roof and Range Rover lettering in black. It's how you say “I've arrived” as noticeably as possible.
If you are looking for an SUV which stands out, then I would strongly suggest the HST Range Rover Sport.
Final Thoughts
Personally, if I were to purchase a Range Rover, I'd still go for the Supercharged 5.0 V-8 over the MHEV HST. But if efficiency is key on your next large SUV purchase, then it could make sense. Just keep in mind, you're not going to experience the smoothest of driving experiences, especially around town at low speeds. The Sport does excel when it comes to interior quality and exterior design, but those come at a price, not only in actual cost but also in Land Rover quirks like an incredibly laggy backup camera, painful to program navigation system, and an overall slow to respond multi-media system. Like they say, looking good is never easy. For many divers, the quality it worth making the sacrifice, but for those of you looking for something a bit more user-friendly, I'd take a close look at the BMW X5, Audi Q7, and Mercedes-Benz GLC.

Samoa measles epidemic worsens with 24 children now dead
by NICK PERRYWELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) - Authorities said Monday that a measles epidemic sweeping through Samoa continues to worsen with the death toll rising to 25, all but one of them young children.
“We still have a big problem at hand,” Samoa’s Director General of Health Leausa Take Naseri said in a video statement.
He said more than 140 new cases of people contracting the virus had been recorded within the past day, bringing the total to about 2,200 cases since the outbreak began last month. He said there are about 20 critically ill children who remain in hospital intensive care units.
Samoa declared a state of emergency nine days ago, closing all its schools, banning children from public gatherings and mandating that everybody get vaccinated. Teams of people have been traveling the country administering thousands of vaccines.
The government also shut down a private clinic and is investigating how hundreds of vaccines were taken without authorization and then sold for a fee.
The median age of those who have died is 13 months, according to government figures. The deaths include 24 children under the age of 5, 11 of whom were infants under 12 months. The other person who died was in their 30s.
In all, 679 people have been admitted to Samoan hospitals with the disease, accounting for two-thirds of all recent hospital admissions. A majority have been discharged, with about 183 remaining in hospitals.
“These hospitals are not designed to deal with this,” Dr. Scott Wilson told Newshub in the capital, Apia. “The minute you get hospitals running at 200 to 300 percent capacity - I think it speaks for itself. It’s incredibly serious.”
Figures from the World Health Organization and UNICEF indicate that measles immunization rates among Samoan infants have fallen steeply from over 70% in 2013 to under 30% last year.
Helen Petousis-Harris, a vaccine expert at New Zealand’s University of Auckland, said the Samoan government halted its immunization program for several months last year after two infants died from a medical mishap involving a vaccine.
Tonga, Fiji and New Zealand have also reported outbreaks of measles but on a smaller scale than in Samoa. American Samoa, which has declared a public health emergency, is requiring that travelers from Samoa and Tonga prove they have been vaccinated or are immune from measles before being allowed into the U.S. territory.

Some multi-agent learning algorithms, such as regret matching (RM, Hart & Mas-Colell), converge, not to Nash equilibria, but to more general types of equilibria, such as so-called correlated equilibria and coarse correlated equilibria. It is therefore worth the effort to study these new types of equilibria.

Being funny is hard. But recognizing funny is easier. So let's create an algorithmically-augmented writer's room.
We built a system that helps me, and workers on our research platform for paid crowdsourcing Daemo, write content for a @Trump_AfterDark account. We take Trump's old tweets, mangle them through word2vec, and then ask Daemo workers to put those concepts head-to-head to decide which ones should fly.
Some results:

OK, so my collaborators say that this kind of humor is an aqcuired taste, but let's roll with it.
We tried previously to work with Daemo workers to create a parody Trump account, but it was proving very difficult for us and workers to write convincing Trump-like tweets that weren't so on the nose as to be SAD! But what if we take actual things that Trump said, and manipulate them slightly? Think of it as Trump's true feelings on random topics coming out, when he's up all night all alone. What does he think about? We collected a dataset of Trump's tweets in 2017 to start. But how to transform them?
Bot whisperer Darius Kazemi maintains an excellent repository of corpora, including random objects, TV shows, celebrities, and Pokemon, which can serve as the concepts that Trump After Dark is fixated on. But, a random insertion of those objects into the tweets had a very low hit rate of making sense, much less being funny. So we need to do better than that.
Keep in mind our goal is to amplify our funny, not completely automate it. So I started by annotating some of Trump's tweets with a marker of the central concept. For example:
Now the goal is to find a slightly related but still wacky corpora object to replace it with. I wrote an algorithm that projects the text inside the [[brackets]] into a vector space using Google's pretrained word2vec model in gensim, and likewise projects each corpus item into that same vector space. We then sample ten corpora objects based on cosine similarity to the original text.
For example, suppose the original tweet was "Republicans Senators are working hard to get their failed [[ObamaCare replacement]] approved. I will be at my desk, pen in hand!" Then, our word2vec replacements might include:
But which are actually funny?
Now we have a long list of many not-funny tweets and some funny tweets. We could post them on Daemo and ask for Likert scale ratings, but typically such ratings are all highly clustered (e.g., everything on Yelp is 4.5 stars). So instead we do a head-to-head competition where Daemo workers pick their favorite from a field of candidates. This gives us more information. Here's the task:
We then use the TrueSkill algorithm to transform those Best-of-8 competitions into a continuous score for each tweet. TrueSkill is a generalization of the Elo algorithm used to rank chess players. Luckily, it handles all sorts of complex matchups like ours. Here are the resulting scores, where I've filtered them just to the those I showed before, and ranked them by descending funny:
Now, we run the competitions again, focusing on the top 10% of ideas. Round 2 comes back with top performers including:
Now we're talking. I take a few that I like and tweak any obvious grammar problems introduced by the algorithm. Where appropriate, I either flip out Trump's photo with an easily-googleable alternative that highlights what we changed, or I give myself a four-minute Photoshop limit to, you know, add an american flag behind America Ferrera or paste a plastic bag of rubber bands on top of the Bastille Day parade. #justtrumpthings

[gecode-users] advice on building interface (with Haskell)

As Mikael already pointed out, the Alice interface uses exactly this
approach.
For a Haskell interface, I'd suggest a slightly different approach,
though. Instead of actually calling the propagator posting functions
directly from Haskell, just create a value of some data type that
represents the problem. Without having thought this fully through, a
model would be a list of constraints, which in turn would be defined
in terms of constraint variables. Of course monads might come in
handy for creation of models.
The advantage of this setup would be that the creation of a model is
purely functional.
The C/C++ part would then just take that abstract representation,
create the real Gecode model, solve it, and return the solution as a
Haskell term. I don't know how exactly the Haskell foreign function
interface works, but I think something along these lines should be
doable. In fact, even this operation then is purely functional.
One thing I am not so sure about is how exactly to return the
solutions. One could make a model a pair of a list of constraints and
a list of variables, and then make the solver return a list of
"solution variables" that correspond to the variables of the model.
Cheers,
Guido

One of the oldest libraries for PlotDevice. Pixie is a handwriting that looks different each time, contains mistakes, has wobbly baselines and variable color pressure. The handwriting is based on Tom De Smedt’s handwriting.
The library contains the OpenType Pixie font family that must be installed on your system in order for the code to work.
| pixie.zip (120KB) Last updated for NodeBox 1.9.3. Author: Tom De Smedt |
A combination of Pixie, WordNet and Wikipedia.
Generate an infinite number of sketchy notes, schemes, jokes and rantings,
on any given subject.
Put the pixie library folder in the same folder as your script so PlotDevice can find the library. You can also put it in ~/Library/Application Support/PlotDevice/.
pixie = ximport("pixie")
The heading() command lets you draw text in a fat font:
heading(str, x, y, width, pt=30, slant=0.0)
Draws the string str at position x, y with the given line width and font size pt. The command returns an (x, y) tuple with the position of the heading’s bottom right corner. For example:
txt = "Fat trendy Pixie headers!" pixie.heading(txt, 100, 100, 200, pt=15)
The text() command lets you draw blocks of sketchy handwriting:
text(str, x, y, width, pt=15, slant=0.5, line=False, serif=False)
Draws the string str at position x, y with the given line width
and font size pt. With the optional line parameter set to True the
paragraph will be underlined. When you set serif to True some characters in the
text will look kinda serif-ish. The command returns an (x,y) tuple with the position of the
text’s bottom right corner. For example:
str += "Pixie was originally a part of the Aunt Hillary code package," str += "a handwriting that looks different each time, contains mistakes," str += "has wobbly baselines and variable color pressure." pixie.text(str, 20, 20, 200, pt=15)
Text height
With the textheight() command you can guess the height of a text paragraph:
textheight(str, width, pt=20)
Returns the height of a text() paragraph with given str, width and point size pt. Because baselines in a Pixie paragraph wobble randomly, this command gives an idea of the actual height, with an average deviation of 20%.
Messing it up
The library has a few commands to make text look more organic. You can change the text color
and lineheight, highlight keywords and add random errors and scribbles:
color(c=0.8, m=0.4, y=0.0, k=0.4)
lineheight(x=1.2)
keywords(list=(), all=False)
distraction(d=0.05)
The color() command sets the color (in CMYK) of all handwritten text.
The lineheight() command sets the spacing between lines of text in heading() or text().
The keywords() command sets a list of words to highlight. The text() command uses this list to determine which words should be drawn with a border around them. When all is True, it draws any occurence of a keyword in a border (by default just the first one).
The distraction() command determines the number of errors and strikethroughs in. Distraction ranges between 0.0 and 1.0 - the higher the value the more words will be scribbled through. Making mistakes is a recursive process: corrections of mistakes might become mistakes themselves, and so on. Setting a high distraction on a long paragraph may take a while to draw.
|
|
Increased line spacing: pixie.lineheight(1.4) pixie.text(str, 100, 100, 200) |
|
|
Keyword highlighting: k = ["pixie", "aunt hillary"] pixie.keywords(k) pixie.text(str, 100, 100, 200) |
|
|
Adding mistakes: k = ["pixie", "aunt hillary"] pixie.keywords(k) pixie.distraction(0.8) pixie.text(str, 100, 100, 200) |
Here’s a fun command to add some doodles to your text!
The sprite() command draws a little critter with random legs, face and body:
sprite(x, y, pt=20)
for x, y in grid(3, 3, 60, 60): pixie.sprite(100+x, 100+y)
The Pixie library has powerful graphing algorithms. Wow! Now you’re ready to get
professional.
With the tree() command you can draw a network of related nodes:
tree(root, nodes, x, y, width, height, pt=15, max=10, grow=False, border=False)
The command draws a tree scheme exploding from a central root. The nodes list is
expected to contain tuples of relations, for example:
[ (’node1’, [’leaf1a’, ‘leaf1b’]), (’node2’, [’leaf2a’]) ]
Nodes in the drawn network become smaller and smaller if the grow parameter is True. Two other commands in the library, line() and node(), are called to draw the individual nodes.
root = "PixieBundle" n1 = ("WordNet", ()) n2 = ("Wikipedia", ()) n3 = ("Pixie", ("paragraph","color","spacing","keywords")) nodes = (n1,n2,n3) pixie.tree(root, nodes, 200, 200, 400, 400, pt=15)
