27/11/2022: This page describes the GLIMPSE1 method. GLIMPSE1 is recommended to the users who want to use the joint model, for imputation of >1x data and a moderate sized reference panels. For large reference panels and lower coverages, we recommend the use of the GLIMPSE2 method
GLIMPSE command options
Tool name:
GLIMPSE_chunk defines chunks where to run imputation
GLIMPSE_phase main GLIMPSE algorithm, performs phasing and imputation refining genotype likelihoods
GLIMPSE_ligate concatenates imputation chunks in a single VCF/BCF file ligating phased information
GLIMPSE_sample generates haplotype calls by sampling haplotype estimates

TypeSafeMultiCredentials
public protocol TypeSafeMultiCredentials : TypeSafeCredentials
A TypeSafeMiddleware
protocol for using multiple authentication methods on a Codable route. An object conforming to this protocol must contain a static array of the acceptable TypeSafeCredentials
types and be initializable from the authentication instance that succeeded. If an authentication fails or you reach the end of your array, an unauthorized response is sent.
Usage Example:
public final class AuthedUser: TypeSafeMultiCredentials {
public let id: String
public let provider: String
public let name: String?
} extension TypeSafeMultiCredentials {
static let authenticationMethods: [TypeSafeCredentials.Type] = [MyBasicAuth.self, GoogleTokenProfile.self]
init(successfulAuth: TypeSafeCredentials) {
self.id = successfulAuth.id
self.provider = successfulAuth.provider
}
}
router.get("/protected") { (authedUser: AuthedUser, respondWith: (AuthedUser?, RequestError?) -> Void) in
print("user: \(authedUser.id) successfully authenticated using: \(authedUser.provider)")
respondWith(authedUser, nil)
}
-
An array of authentication types that conform to
TypeSafeCredentials
. Each type will be asked, in turn, to authenticate an incoming request.Declaration
Swift
static var authenticationMethods: [TypeSafeCredentials.Type] { get }
-
This initalizer creates an instance of the type conforming to
TypeSafeMultiCredentials
from a successfully authenticatedTypeSafeCredentials
instance.Usage Example:
init(successfulAuth: TypeSafeCredentials) { self.id = successfulAuth.id self.provider = successfulAuth.provider switch(successAuth.self) { case let googleProfile as GoogleTokenProfile: self.name = googleProfile.name default: self.name = nil } }
Declaration
Swift
init(successfulAuth: TypeSafeCredentials)
-
authenticate(request:
Extension methodresponse: onSuccess: onFailure: onSkip: ) Static function that iterates through the
authenticationMethods
array ofTypeSafeCredentials
types calling their authenticate function. If a type successfully authenticates and returns onSuccess(Self),TypeSafeMultiCredentials
will call init(successfulAuth:) with the successful instance. If a type matches its authorization header but fails to authenticate it returns onFailure() and an .unauthorized response is sent. If a type doesn’t match its authorization header then it returns onSkip() and the next authentication method is called.Declaration
Swift
public static func authenticate(request: RouterRequest, response: RouterResponse, onSuccess: @escaping (Self) -> Void, onFailure: @escaping (HTTPStatusCode?, [String : String]?) -> Void, onSkip: @escaping (HTTPStatusCode?, [String : String]?) -> Void)
Parameters
request
The
RouterRequest
object used to get information about the request.response
The
RouterResponse
object used to respond to the request.onSuccess
The closure to invoke in the case of successful authentication.
onFailure
The closure to invoke in the case of an authentication failure.
onSkip
The closure to invoke when the plugin doesn’t recognize the authentication data in the request.

Encourage and reward your child for healthy behaviors


CxStocks is a minigame played on the Ice Poseidon subreddit. Ice Poseidon is a livestreamer who interacts with many people during his livestreams. The main people who he interacts with have stocks in this game including Ice. The idea of the game is when a person on the stream does something good or is liked by the community, the community should buy the person's stocks so it's price increases and sell their stock when they are disliked.
Each player in the game starts of with 10 stocks of each character and $10000 in their holding. When a player sells stock of a character, it loses its price and when a player buys stock of a character, it increases its price. The ratio of the price change is 1:0.1 meaning 1 stock that is brought or sold will make the price change by $0.1.
Example: If Ice's stock price is $100 and a player buys 1 worth of stock, Ice's stock price is now $100 + $0.1 = $100.10
Example: If Ice's stock price is $50 and a player sells 0.5 worth of stock, Ice's stock price is now $50 - $0.05 = $49.95
Example: If Ice's stock price is $20 and a player buys 10 worth of stock, Ice's stock price is now $20 + $1 = $21
When you sell your stocks, you will have increased your holding and will be able to purchase other stocks using this holding. A player's total value is equal to the holding and the worth of their stocks. A player's stock is worth by the quantity multiplied by the stock price.
Example: Ice's stock price is currently $100, Brandon's stock price is currently $200
If a player has 2 Ice stocks, 1.5 Brandon stocks and $200 in holdings,
The total value of the player's portfolio is (2 * 100) + (1.5 * 200) + 200 = $700.
The goal of the game is for a player to get the highest portfolio worth compared to other players. The highest value players will have their name shown in the leaderboards.
The game is played by posting or replying to comments in the subreddit in ANY submission. There is a script running which is scanning new comments. These comments will trigger executions by a bot which will make buy/sell trades. Please make sure all comments are upper-case.
You need a reddit account which is 7 days old (This is to prevent price manipulation). To register for the game, post a comment or reply in any post in Ice's subreddit by typing exactly !REGISTER CXSTOCKS. If correctly done, you should see your portfolio in the Player page by entering your reddit username.
To buy a stock or sell a stock, a comment must be posted exactly in this format: !<TYPE> <SYMBOL> <QUANTITY>
TYPE can be either BUY or SELL
SYMBOL can be any symbol associated with a stock. You can see the symbols in the Stocks page
QUANTITY is the amount of stock you want to buy or sell. The value should be a positive number and will be cut to two decimal places.
Example - To buy 1 worth of Ice stock: !BUY ICE 1
Example - To sell 2.5 worth of Brandon stock: !SELL TTD 2.5
If a player does not have enough stocks that they can sell or does not have enough cash holdings to buy a stock, their command is ignored and nothing happens. The price of the stock will be constantly changing so by the time your buy/sell comment gets processed, the stock you are targetting might not be the same price at the time of the comment.

Anxiety and Performance
by Alexandre Barbosa
Anxiety
The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the pressure on us, making many more people feel stressed, anxious and overwhelmed.
We can become irritated, tense, disinterested, affecting our performance and our ability to make sensible decisions.
How to manage these emotions, control anxiety and create conditions that enable the maintenance of productivity and high performance, so demanded when facing these times of crisis, in business and in personal life?
The first and main paradigm to be visited is that you are the only person who can do something about your emotions and direct them towards a result that adheres to your goals.
Starting from that point, we need to recognize our unique ability to exercise four gifts of human nature: Consciousness, that is, the understanding or knowledge that allows human beings to experience or understand aspects or the totality of their inner world. Self-awareness, a logical characteristic of the consciousness of being. There is no consciousness without self-awareness.
Imagination, which, according to Philosophy, is the ability to combine images from experience in a new set, enabling the exploration of new future scenarios.
And finally, the independent will that allows us to exercise choice, regardless of external conditions. From the exercise of these four gifts that only the human being has, we can create a space between a stimulus and the response, in order to exercise the freedom to choose the response that can best contribute to the achievement of the results we desire.
In the words of Viktor Frankl, “There is a gap between the stimulus and the response. In this space lies our power to choose our answer. Our response lies in our growth and our freedom. ” – The sense of life.
To create that space between anxiety and choose responses that increase our performance and ability to perform, I separate three mechanisms that can be useful:
1. Memories
I’m passionate about diving! I practice this sport from 1987. I dived in several places in the world, always looking for sharks, because they are animals that I admire and respect.
When I notice that the level of anxiety and stress starts to increase, I do an exercise to rescue my memories of the thousands of dives I have already done.
Is there a pre-pandemic memory that you remember when you are feeling anxious? What does this make you realize about your resilience? What is this helping you to see about the future?
2. Focus on what matters
A source of anxiety and stress is the pressure to fulfill an avalanche of requests that often give us the feeling of being very busy, but it does not always reflect how productive and effective we are.
It is utopian to imagine that we can do everything and that we can meet all expectations and requests that come to us.
How to do it, then to stay focused on what is important to achieve the goals and results we want?
When a request arrives, ask myself: What quadrant does this task come from?
- If you come from Quadrant 1, you need to do something about it.
- If you come from Quadrant 3, you can decide to say no or negotiate a better time to answer it with the person who requested it.

- The focus should be on Quadrant 2, the renewal and effectiveness quadrant. The more time you invest in Q2, the less you will fall into the traps of the other quadrants.
Source: Time Matrix
3. Connections
More and more, the demands of the present times demand a connection with ourselves and an investment of time and energy in self-knowledge. Only by understanding our values, priorities and purpose will it allow us to live in harmony with the legacy we want to leave and with the contributions we wish to make in the lives of the people we love and with society.
In addition, neuroscience has pointed out that maintaining our relationships and the feeling of belonging to a group allows for greater longevity, a less stressful and healthier life.
You have the ability to recognize stress and direct what it brings to achieve your goals, reaching levels of greater productivity and high performance.
Note: Chronic stress can cause serious health problems and, in extreme cases, death. Although the advice provided in this article can have a positive effect on reducing stress, it is only guidance, and you should seek advice from suitably qualified health professionals if you have any concerns about stress-related illnesses.

[Scene: Central Perk, the whole gang is there, Ross is showing pictures of his new baby boy, Ben, to the group.]
Ross: And here's little Ben nodding off...
Monica: Awww, look at Aunt Monica's little boy!
Phoebe: Oh, look, he's got Ross's haircut!
Rachel: Oh, let me see! (grabs picture) Oh, God, is he just the sweetest thing? You must just want to kiss him all over!
(Ross is practically drooling over Rachel at this point.)
Ross: (quietly) That would be nice.
(Chandler, annoyed with Ross's fawning, makes a 'pfft' noise.)
Rachel: Pardon?
Chandler: Nothing, just a little extra air in my mouth. Pffft. Pffffffft. (walks over to where Joey is seated)
(Joey is looking at his check.)
Joey: Hey, Chan, can you help me out here? I promise I'll pay you back.
Chandler: Oh, yeah, right, OK... inlcuding the waffles last week, you now owe me... 17 jillion dollars.
Joey: I will, really. I'll pay you back this time.
Chandler: (sigh)... And where's this money coming from? (gives money to Joey)
Joey: Well... I'm helping out down at the N.Y.U. Med School with some... research.
Ross: (overhearing) What kind of research?
Joey: Oh, just, y'know.... science.
Ross: Science. Yeah, I think I've heard of that. (everyone's interest is piqued, they all look over)
Joey: (sigh)... It's a fertility study.
(Rachel laughs.)
Monica: Oh, Joey, please tell me you're only donating your time.
 Really...  Hey, hey, but at the end of two weeks, I get seven hundred dollars.
Ross: Hey.
Phoebe: Wow, ooh, you're gonna be making money hand over fist!
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, Monica and Phoebe are preparing for a barbecue for Rachel's birthday.]
Monica: OK, we got the cole slaw, we got the buns...
Phoebe: We've got the ground-up flesh of formerly cute cows and turkeys, ew... (hands meat to Monica)
(Chandler and Joey enter with charcoal.)
Chandler: (in a deep voice) Men are here.
Joey: We make fire. Cook meat.
Chandler: Then put out fire by peeing, no get invited back.
Monica and Phoebe: Ewww!

Joey: Oh, OK.
Phoebe: So how are things going with you two? Is she becoming your (provocatively) special someone?
Joey: I don't know, she's, uh.... she's pretty great.
Monica: Yeah? What does she think of your little science project?
Joey: What, you think I'm gonna tell a girl I like that I'm also seeing a cup?
Monica: Man's got a point.
Joey: Well, the tough thing is, she really wants to have sex with me.

Joey: Yeah, well, I still got a week left to go in the program, and according to the rules, if I want to get the money I'm not allowed to conduct any... ersonal experiments, if you know what I mean.
Monica: Joey... we always know what you mean.
[Time lapse. Chandler and Joey are making the fire, Monica and Phoebe are inside. Ross enters, carrying luggage.]
Phoebe: Hey.
Monica: Hey.
Ross: Hey. (Phoebe sees his bags)
Phoebe: How long did you think this barbecue was gonna last?
Ross: I'm going to China.
Phoebe: Jeez, you say one thing, and...
Monica: You're going to China?
Ross: Yeah, i-it's for the museum. Someone found a bone, we want the bone, but they don't want us to have the bone, so I'm going over there to try to persuade them to give us the boit'sit's a whole big bone thing. Anyway, I'm gonna be gone for like, uh... like a week, so, uh, if you wanna reach me, y-you can't. So here's my itinerary (hands a sheet of paper to Monica). Um... here's a picture of me... (hands it to Monica)
Phoebe: Oh, let me see! (takes the picture)
Ross: (to Monica): Could you take it to Carol's every now and then, and show it to Ben, just so he doesn't forget me?
Monica: Yeah.
(Phoebe puts the picture of Ross up to her face.)
Phoebe: Hi, Ben. I'm your father. I am... the head.
Ross: Hey, is Rachel here? Um, I wanted to wish her a happy birthday before I left.
Monica: Oh no, she's out having drinks with Carl.
Ross: Oh. (pause) Hey, who's Carl?
Monica: You know, that guy she met at the coffeehouse.
Ross: No.
Phoebe: Oh, well, see, there's this guy she met at the...
Ross: At the coffeehouse, right.
Phoebe: So you do know who he is! (laughs, Ross stares at her) Sorry.
Ross: OK, I'm gonna go say goodbye to the guys.
Phoebe: Oh, hey, y'know what? Tell them that bone story.
(Ross goes outisde on the balcony.)
Ross: Hi.
Joey: Hey!
Chandler: Hey!
Ross: (sigh)....I have to go to China.
Joey: The country?
Ross: No no, this big pile of dishes in my mom's breakfront. Do you guys know who Carl is?
Chandler: Uh, let's see... Alvin... Simon... Theodore.... no.
Ross: Well, Rachel's having drinks with him tonight.
Joey: Oh no! How can she do that when she's never shown any interest in you?!?
Chandler: Forget about her.
Joey: He's right, man. Please. Move on. Go to China. Eat Chinese food.
Chandler: Course there, they just call it food.
Ross: Yeah... I guess. I don'tI don't know. Alright, just... just give her this for me, OK? (gives Chandler a gift for Rachel)
Joey: Listen, buddy, we're just looking out for you.
Ross: I know.
Joey: We want you to be happy. And I may only have a couple beers in me, but... I love you, man. (Joey gives Ross a hug)
Chandler: I'm still on my first. I just think you're nice.
[Time lapse. Melanie, Joey's girlfriend, is there with Joey, Chandler, Monica, Phoebe, and Rachel. Ross is gone.]
Melanie: Anyway, that's when me and my friends started this whole fruit basket business. We call ourselves 'The Three Basketeers.'
Joey: Like the three musketeers, only with fruit.
Chandler: (sarcastic) Ooooh. (looks dumbfounded at Joey's stupidity)
Monica: (gets up) OK, how does everybody like their burgers?
Rachel: Oh, no, no, no. Presents first. Food later. (walks into living room)
(Everyone follows Rachel to the living room. Monica pulls Joey aside.)
Monica: Hey, hold on there, tiger. How's it going? How you holding up?
Joey: Well, not so good. She definitely thinks tonight is the night we're gonna... complete the transaction, if you know what I...
(Monica rolls her eyes.)
Joey: Then you do. Heh, heh.
Monica: So, uh, have you ever thought about being there for her?
Joey: What do you mean?
Monica: Y'know, just be there for her.
(Long pause... Joey looks confused.)
Joey: Not following you.
Monica: Think about it.
(They both walk over to where Rachel is opening her gifts. Rachel sees her first gift is a fruit basket.)
Rachel: OK, I'm guessing this is from...
(Melanie smiles.)
Rachel: Well, thank you, Melanie.
Chandler: (pointing out a gift) OK, this one right here is from me.
Rachel: (picks it up) OK... ah, it's light... (shakes it)...it rattles... it's... (opens it) Travel Scrabble! Oooohhh, thank you! (she gives it back to him)
(Chandler looks dejected. Rachel picks up another gift.)
Rachel: This one's from Joey... feels like a book. Thinks it's a book... feels like a book. And...(opens it)...it's a book!
Phoebe: Oh, it's Dr. Seuss!
Joey: (to Rachel): That book got me through some tough times.

Chandler: Yes, the doctors say if they remove it, he'll die.
(Rachel picks up the next gift.)
Rachel: Who's this from?
Chandler: Oh, that's Ross's.
Rachel: Oh... (opens it)... (sees it is a pin) Oh my God. He remembered.
Phoebe: Remembered what?
Rachel: It was like months ago. We were walking by this antique store, and I saw this pin in the window, and I told him it was just like one my grandmother had when I was a little girl. Oh! I can't believe he remembered!
Chandler: Well, sure, but can you play it on a plane? (pats his Travel Scrabble game)
Phoebe: Oh, it's so pretty. This must have cost him a fortune.
Monica: I can't believe he did this.
 Remember back in college, when he fell in love with Carol and bought her that ridiculously expensive crystal duck?
(Everyone looks at him. He realizes he just spilled the beans about Ross's crush on Rachel. You can hear this entire classic scene by clicking here.)
Rachel: What did you just say?
Chandler: (panicked) ahem... um... Crystal duck.
Rachel: No, no, no.... the, um, the... 'love' part?
Chandler: (stuttering incoherently) F-hah.... flennin....
Rachel: Oh.... my God.
Chandler: (rubbing his temples) Oh, no-no-no-no-no....
Joey: (pats Chandler on the leg) That's good, just keep rubbing your head. That'll turn back time.
Commercial Break
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, continued from earlier.]
Rachel: I mean, this is unbelievable.
Phoebe: I know. This is really, really huge.
Chandler: No it's not. It's small. It's tiny. It's petite. It's wee.
Phoebe: Nuh-uh. I don't think any of our lives are ever gonna be the same ever again.
Chandler: OK, is there a mute button on this woman?
Monica: I think this is so great!  D-did you have any idea?
Rachel: No! None! I mean, my first night in the city, he mentioned something about asking me out, but nothing ever happened, so I just... (to Joey): W-well, what else did he say? I mean, does he, like, want to go out with me?
Joey: Well, given that he's desperately in love with you, he probably wouldn't mind getting a cup of coffee or something.
Rachel: Ross? All this time? Well, I've got to talk to him. (gets up to leave)
Chandler: (quickly) H-He's in China!
Joey: The country.
Monica: No, no, wait. (checks Ross's itinerary) His flight doesn't leave for another forty-five more minutes.
Chandler: What about the time difference?
Monica: From here to the airport?
Chandler: Yes! (Rachel walks towards door) You're never gonna make it!
Monica: Rachel, what're you gonna say to him?
Rachel: I-I-I don't know.
Chandler: Well then maybe you shouldn't go.
Joey: He's right, cause if you're just gonna, like, break his heart, that's the kind of thing that can wait.
Monica: Yeah, but if it's good news, you should tell him now.
Rachel: I don't know. Maybe I'll know when I see him.
Phoebe: Here, look, alright, does this help?
(Phoebe gets up, holds the picture of Ross up to her face.)
Rachel: Noooo... look, all I know is that I cannot wait a week until I see him. I mean, this is just too big. Y'know, I just, I've just gotta talk to him. I... I gotta... OK, I'll see you later. (opens door)
Chandler: Rachel, I love you! Deal with me first! (she leaves)
[Scene: Airport, Ross has headphones on, and is listening to a 'How To Speak Chinese' tape. Occasionally, he makes an outburst in Chinese in accordance with the tape. He is getting on the jetway. The flight attendant is there.]
Ross: (something in Chinese)
Flight Attendant: Alright!
Ross: Ni-chou chi-ma! (walks onto jetway)
(Rachel runs into the airport, trying to catch Ross, moving people out of the way.)
Rachel: Ross! Excuse me, pardon me, excuse me....
(Rachel gets up to the jetway.)
Flight Attendant: Hi!
Rachel: Hi.
Flight Attendant: May I see your boarding pass?
Rachel: Oh, no, no, I don't have one. I just need to talk to my friend.
Flight Attendant: Oh, oooh. I'm sorry. You are not allowed on the jetway unless you have a boarding pass.
Rachel: No, I know, but Ihe just went on. He's right there, he's got the blue jacket on, I... can I j-just...
Flight Attendant: No no no! Federal regulations!
Rachel: OK, alright, OK, um... then could you please, uh... just give him a message for me? Please? This is very important.
Flight Attendant: Alright. What's the message?
Rachel: Uh... I don't know.
[Cut to the Jetway, the flight attendant enters, walks past Ross, and approaches an older man with his wife who is also wearing a blue jacket.]
Flight Attendant: Sir? Sir? Excuse me, sir? Uh... I have a message for you.
Man: (confused) What?
Flight Attendant: It's from Rachel. She said that she loved the present, and she will see you when you get back.
Man: (to wife): Toby... Oh, for God's sake, I don't know what she's talking about! There's no Rachel! Don't give me that deep freeze.
[Scene: Joey's Bedroom, he and Melanie are in bed together.]
Melanie: Mmmmmm... Oh, Joey, Joey, Joey... I think I blacked out there for a minute!
Joey: Heh, heh. It was nothin'.
Melanie: Well, now we've gotta find something fun for you! (she starts kissing his chest)
Joey: (panicked) Uhhh.. y'know what? Forget about me. Let's, uh... let's give you another turn.
Melanie: (surprised) M-Me again?
Joey: Sure! Why not?
Melanie: Boy, somebody's gonna get a big fruit basket tomorrow.
(Joey starts to kiss her.)
Melanie: Oooh, I gotta tell you... you are nothing like I thought you would be.
Joey: How do you mean?
Melanie: I don't know, I-I guess I just had you pegged as one of those guys who're always 'me, me, me.'  You're like the most generous man I ever met. I mean... you're practically a woman.
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, Monica, Phoebe, and Rachel are there. Monica is holding the wrapping paper from one of Rachel's gifts.]

Rachel: I don't know. I don't know... I thought about it all the way there, and I thought about it all the way back... and, uh, oh, you guys, y'know, it's Ross. Y'know what I mean? I mean, it's Ross.
Monica and Phoebe: Sure.
Rachel: I don't know, I mean, this is just my initial gut feeling... but I'm thinking... oh, I'm thinking it'd be really great.
Monica: Oh my God, me too! Oh! Oh, we'd be like friends-in-law! Y'know what the best part is? The best part is that you already know everything about him! I mean, it's like starting on the fifteenth date!
Phoebe: Yeah, but, y'know, it's... it would be like starting on the fifteenth date.
Monica: Another good point.
 Y'know, it's... you're committed.
Rachel: (confused) Huh?
Phoebe: Well, I mean, then what happens if it doesn't work out?
Monica: Why isn't it working out?
Rachel: I don't know... sometimes it doesn't.
Monica: Is he not cute enough for you?
Rachel: No!
Monica: Does he not make enough money?
Rachel: No, I'm just....
Phoebe: Maybe there's someone else.
Rachel: Wha...
Monica: Is there? Is there someone else?
Rachel: No! There is.. there is noone else!

[Scene: Chandler and Joey's, Chandler is eating breakfast, Joey quietly opens his bedroom door.]
Chandler: Hey, big...
Joey: Shhhh!
Chandler: (quietly) ...spender.
Joey: She's still asleep.
Chandler: So how'd it go?
Joey: Oh, it was amazing. You know how you always think you're great in bed?
Chandler: The fact that you'd even ask that question shows how little you know me.
Joey: Well, it's like, last night, I couldn't do the thing that usually makes me great. So I had to do all this other stuff. And the response I got... man, oh man, it was like a ticker tape parade!
Chandler: Yes, I know, as it happens my room is very very close to the parade route.
Joey: It was amazing! And not just for her... uh-uh. For me, too. It's like, all of a sudden, I'm blind. But all my other senses are heightened, y'know? It's like... I was able to appreciate it on another level.
Chandler: I didn't know you had another level.
Joey: I know! Neither did I!
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's, one week later. Monica is seated, Rachel comes out of her bedroom.]
Monica: Hey, great skirt! Birthday present?
Rachel: Yeah.
Monica: Oh, from who?
Rachel: From you. I exchanged the blouse you got me.
Monica: Well, it's the thought. Hey, doesn't Ross's flight get in in a couple hours? At gate 27-B?
Rachel: Uh, yeah. Uh, Monica, y'know, honey, I've been thinking about it and I've decided thisthis whole Ross thing, it's just not a good idea.
Monica: Oh, why?
Rachel: Because, I feel like I wouldn't just be going out with him. I would be going out with all of you. Oh, and there would just be all this pressure, and I don't wanna...
Monica: (gets up) No, no, no, no, no, no pressure, no pressure!
Rachel: Monica, nothing has even happened yet, and you're already so...
Monica: I am not 'so'! OK, I was a teensy bit weird at first, but... I'll be good. I promise.
(Door buzzer goes off. Rachel answers it.)
Rachel: Who is it?
Intercom: It's me, Carl.
Rachel: C'mon up.
Monica: Behind my brother's back? (Rachel glares at her) ... is exactly the kind of crazy thing you won't be hearing from me.
[Scene: Chandler and Joey's, Chandler is seated, and the apartment is filled with baskets of fruit. Joey enters, check in hand.]
Joey: Seven hundred bucks!
Chandler: Alright, you did it! Do we have any fruit?
 Y'know what, though? I really feel like I learned something.
Chandler: Really? So, you're gonna stick with this 'it's all for her' thing?
Joey: What, are you crazy? When a blind man gets his sight back, does he walk around like this? (Joey closes his eyes and walks around with arms spread.)
[Scene: Monica and Rachel's Balcony, Rachel is having drinks with her date, Carl.]
 I mean, don't get me wrong... I'm not against environmental issues per se.... it's just that guy!
(Rachel looks bored. At this point, Rossa figment of Rachel's imagination shows up on the balcony and starts talking to her.)
Ross: I can't believe you'd rather go out with him than me.
Rachel: Would you excuse me, please? I'm trying to have a date here.
Ross: Fine, just stop thinking about me.
(She tries, and Ross disappears momentarily. He reappears, standing closer to her.)
Ross: Can't do it, can you?
Rachel: So I'm thinking about you. So what?
Ross: I don't get it. What do you see in this guy, anyway?
Rachel: Well... he happens to be a very nice... guy....

Ross: Rachel, come on. Give us a chance.
Rachel: Ross, it's too hard.
Ross: No, no, no... why, because it might get weird for everyone else? Who cares about them. This is about us.
Rachel: Ross, you're like my best friend.
Ross: I know.
Rachel: If we broke up, and I lost you...
Ross: Whoa, whoa, whoa. What makes you think we're gonna break up?
Rachel: Well, have you been involved with someone where you haven't broken up?
Ross: (pause) No. But... it only has to happen once. Look, you and I both know we are perfect for each other, right? I mean... so, the only question is... are you attracted to me?
Rachel: I don't know... I mean, I've never looked at you that way before.
Ross: Well, start looking.
(They kiss. Ross walks away, and then fades out.)
Rachel: Wow.
Carl: Exactly! And you just know I'm gonna be the guy caught behind this hammerhead in traffic!
Rachel: Right!
Carl: Heh... y'know?
Rachel: You know what?
Carl: What?
Rachel: I forgot... I am supposed to pick up a friend at the airport. I am so sorry! I'm so... if you want to stay, and finish your drinks, please do.... (gives him her drink) I meanI'm sorry. I-I-I gotta go. I'm sorry.
(Rachel leaves.)
Carl: But...
[Scene: Airport. Madonna's Take A Bow plays in the background as Rachel waits at the gate with flowers.]
Rachel: (sifting through crowd) Excuse me, pardon me, excuse me, excuse me, sorry. Hi.
[Cut to the jetway, the old man who the flight attendant delivered Rachel's message to gets off the plane, his wife still upset with him.]
Man: For God's sake, will you let it go? There's no Rachel!
(A Chinese woman getting off the plane drops one of her bags. Ross gets off next.)
Ross: Oh, hey, hey, I got that.
(Ross picks up the bag... then he and the woman kiss.)
Julie: Oh, thanks, sweetie.
Ross: No problem. I cannot wait for you to meet my friends.
Julie: Really?
Ross: Yeah.
Julie: You don't think they'll judge and ridicule me?
Ross: No, no, they will. I just... uh...
Ross and Julie: Can't wait.
Ross: Come on, they're gonna love you.
[Cut to a close-up of Rachel, eagerly awaiting Ross's arrival... not knowing he is getting off the plane with another woman.]

Implements the three-step procedure proposed by Leffondree et al. (2004) to identify clusters of individual longitudinal trajectories. The procedure involves (1) calculating 24 measures describing the features of the trajectories; (2) using factor analysis to select a subset of the 24 measures and (3) using cluster analysis to identify clusters of trajectories, and classify each individual trajectory in one of the clusters.

Atlas Concorde ventilated facade is a technological system consisting of a series of layers that are mechanically linked to the building via a metallic structure. If applied to the external walls of buildings, this system fulfi ls two important aspects for a perfect living comfort: insulation and moisture vapour transmission.
We are the spaces we live. Marvel tells stories about authenticity and beauty, as unique as the people who live in them.
Structure
From a structural point of view, Atlas Concorde ventilated facades consist of a load-bearing metallic structure fixed to the wall of the building on which layers of insulating and protecting materials are assembled. In particular, a thermal and insulating layer can be applied to the main wall of the building and this is externally covered with Atlas Concorde porcelain stoneware. This surface ensures protection and insulation of any subsequent layer applied and it creates an air gap with the external wall of the building.


Just Writing
Get yourself an empty writing book just for this course It’s up to you whether it’s lined or unlined. This book will be private.
Outcome doesn’t matter Preparation for ‘real’ writing
It’s in the doing.
- You need a prompt – we’ll give you a couple initially. It frames what you are going to write.
- Write the prompt you’ve chosen as the first thing on the page.
- Keep your hand moving on the page. It doesn’t need to be fast.  (Creates a direct link between your mind and your hand. Exploring relationship between thinking and doing.)
- Try to stay focussed on the prompt, but if you feel you are getting stuck, try the other prompt.
- You don’t need to write well. You don’t need to like what you’ve written.
- You’re not allowed to show this writing to anyone else.
Reflection / Discussion
- What’s the point of writing if you don’t write well? (Content, idea generaion, writing ‘muscle’)
- What happens if you let your hand stop? (You look back, you start editing.)
- How is it different from the way you usually write?
- What happens when you find it hard to keep going?
- What happens when time is up?
What happens if you review past sessions? What themes, ideas, patterns start to emerge? But keep some distance, don’t do it too soon.
- When you set your own prompts, try to decide what is the ‘next frontier’ for your own research.
Begin before you begin. (Not a first draft.)
What I don’t understand Where is this taking me What is the next question? Where do I find that out?

DECLARE name [ BINARY ] [ INSENSITIVE ] [ [ NO ] SCROLL ] CURSOR [ { WITH | WITHOUT } HOLD ] FOR query
DECLARE allows a user to create cursors, which can be used to retrieve a small number of rows at a time out of a larger query. After the cursor is created, rows are fetched from it using FETCH.
Note: This page describes usage of cursors at the SQL command level. If you are trying to use cursors inside a PL/pgSQL function, the rules are different — see Section 39.7.
The name of the cursor to be created.
Causes the cursor to return data in binary rather than in text format.
Indicates that data retrieved from the cursor should be unaffected by updates to the table(s) underlying the cursor that occur after the cursor is created. In PostgreSQL, this is the default behavior; so this key word has no effect and is only accepted for compatibility with the SQL standard.
SCROLL specifies that the cursor can be used to retrieve rows in a nonsequential fashion (e.g., backward). Depending upon the complexity of the query's execution plan, specifying SCROLL might impose a performance penalty on the query's execution time. NO SCROLL specifies that the cursor cannot be used to retrieve rows in a nonsequential fashion. The default is to allow scrolling in some cases; this is not the same as specifying SCROLL. See Notes for details.
WITH HOLD specifies that the cursor can continue to be used after the transaction that created it successfully commits. WITHOUT HOLD specifies that the cursor cannot be used outside of the transaction that created it. If neither WITHOUT HOLD nor WITH HOLD is specified, WITHOUT HOLD is the default.
A SELECT or VALUES command which will provide the rows to be returned by the cursor.
The key words BINARY, INSENSITIVE, and SCROLL can appear in any order.
Normal cursors return data in text format, the same as a SELECT would produce. The BINARY option specifies that the cursor should return data in binary format. This reduces conversion effort for both the server and client, at the cost of more programmer effort to deal with platform-dependent binary data formats. As an example, if a query returns a value of one from an integer column, you would get a string of 1 with a default cursor, whereas with a binary cursor you would get a 4-byte field containing the internal representation of the value (in big-endian byte order).
Binary cursors should be used carefully. Many applications, including psql, are not prepared to handle binary cursors and expect data to come back in the text format.
Note: When the client application uses the "extended query" protocol to issue a FETCH command, the Bind protocol message specifies whether data is to be retrieved in text or binary format. This choice overrides the way that the cursor is defined. The concept of a binary cursor as such is thus obsolete when using extended query protocol — any cursor can be treated as either text or binary.
Unless WITH HOLD is specified, the cursor created by this command can only be used within the current transaction. Thus, DECLARE without WITH HOLD is useless outside a transaction block: the cursor would survive only to the completion of the statement. Therefore PostgreSQL reports an error if such a command is used outside a transaction block. Use BEGIN and COMMIT (or ROLLBACK) to define a transaction block.
If WITH HOLD is specified and the transaction that created the cursor successfully commits, the cursor can continue to be accessed by subsequent transactions in the same session. (But if the creating transaction is aborted, the cursor is removed.) A cursor created with WITH HOLD is closed when an explicit CLOSE command is issued on it, or the session ends. In the current implementation, the rows represented by a held cursor are copied into a temporary file or memory area so that they remain available for subsequent transactions.
WITH HOLD may not be specified when the query includes FOR UPDATE or FOR SHARE.
The SCROLL option should be specified when defining a cursor that will be used to fetch backwards. This is required by the SQL standard. However, for compatibility with earlier versions, PostgreSQL will allow backward fetches without SCROLL, if the cursor's query plan is simple enough that no extra overhead is needed to support it. However, application developers are advised not to rely on using backward fetches from a cursor that has not been created with SCROLL. If NO SCROLL is specified, then backward fetches are disallowed in any case.
Backward fetches are also disallowed when the query includes FOR UPDATE or FOR SHARE; therefore SCROLL may not be specified in this case.
| Caution |
Scrollable and WITH HOLD cursors may give unexpected results if they invoke any volatile functions (see Section 35.6). When a previously fetched row is re-fetched, the functions might be re-executed, perhaps leading to results different from the first time. One workaround for such cases is to declare the cursor WITH HOLD and commit the transaction before reading any rows from it. This will force the entire output of the cursor to be materialized in temporary storage, so that volatile functions are executed exactly once for each row. |
If the cursor's query includes FOR UPDATE or FOR SHARE, then returned rows are locked at the time they are first fetched, in the same way as for a regular SELECT command with these options. In addition, the returned rows will be the most up-to-date versions; therefore these options provide the equivalent of what the SQL standard calls a "sensitive cursor". (Specifying INSENSITIVE together with FOR UPDATE or FOR SHARE is an error.)
| Caution |
It is generally recommended to use FOR UPDATE if the cursor is intended to be used with UPDATE ... WHERE CURRENT OF or DELETE ... WHERE CURRENT OF. Using FOR UPDATE prevents other sessions from changing the rows between the time they are fetched and the time they are updated. Without FOR UPDATE, a subsequent WHERE CURRENT OF command will have no effect if the row was changed since the cursor was created. Another reason to use FOR UPDATE is that without it, a subsequent WHERE CURRENT OF might fail if the cursor query does not meet the SQL standard's rules for being "simply updatable" (in particular, the cursor must reference just one table and not use grouping or ORDER BY). Cursors that are not simply updatable might work, or might not, depending on plan choice details; so in the worst case, an application might work in testing and then fail in production. The main reason not to use FOR UPDATE with WHERE CURRENT OF is if you need the cursor to be scrollable, or to be insensitive to the subsequent updates (that is, continue to show the old data). If this is a requirement, pay close heed to the caveats shown above. |
The SQL standard only makes provisions for cursors in embedded SQL. The PostgreSQL server does not implement an OPEN statement for cursors; a cursor is considered to be open when it is declared. However, ECPG, the embedded SQL preprocessor for PostgreSQL, supports the standard SQL cursor conventions, including those involving DECLARE and OPEN statements.
You can see all available cursors by querying the pg_cursors system view.
To declare a cursor:
DECLARE liahona CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM films;
See FETCH for more examples of cursor usage.
The SQL standard says that it is implementation-dependent whether cursors are sensitive to concurrent updates of the underlying data by default. In PostgreSQL, cursors are insensitive by default, and can be made sensitive by specifying FOR UPDATE. Other products may work differently.
The SQL standard allows cursors only in embedded SQL and in modules. PostgreSQL permits cursors to be used interactively.


Configuration
jCarousel accepts the following options:
Options can be set either on initialization or at runtime.
list
A function or a jQuery selector to select the list inside the root element.
A function will be called in the context of the carousel instance.
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
list: '.jcarousel-list'
});
Default
function() {
return this.element().children().eq(0);
}
items
A function or a jQuery selector to select the items inside the list element.
A function will be called in the context of the carousel instance.
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
items: '.jcarousel-item'
});
Default
function() {
return this.list().children();
}
animation
The speed of the scroll animation as string in jQuery terms ("slow"
or
"fast"
) or milliseconds as integer (See the documentation for
jQuery animate).
Alternatively, this can be a map of options like the one jQuery.animate accepts as second argument.
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
animation: 'slow'
});
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
animation: {
duration: 800,
easing: 'linear',
complete: function() {
}
}
});
Default
400
transitions
If set to true
, CSS3 transitions are used for animations.
Alternatively, this can be a map of the following options:
-
transforms
: If set totrue
, 2D transforms are used for better hardware acceleration. -
transforms3d
: If set totrue
, 3D transforms are used for full hardware acceleration. -
easing
: Value will be used as the transition-timing-function (e.g.ease
orlinear
).
Note:
jCarousel does not check if the user's browser supports transitions and/or transforms. You have to do that yourself when setting the option.
You can for example use Modernizr for browser feature detection. If you're not including it already in your site, you can use this minimal build.
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
transitions: true
});
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
transitions: Modernizr.csstransitions ? {
transforms: Modernizr.csstransforms,
transforms3d: Modernizr.csstransforms3d,
easing: 'ease'
} : false
});
Default
false
wrap
Specifies whether to wrap at the first or last item (or both) and jump back
to the start/end. Options are "first"
, "last"
, "both"
or "circular"
as
string.
If set to null, wrapping is turned off (default).
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
wrap: 'both'
});
Default
null
vertical
Specifies whether the carousel appears in vertical orientation. Changes the carousel from a left/right style to a up/down style carousel.
If set to null
, jCarousel tries to auto-detect the orientation by simply
checking if the list's height is greater than the list's width.
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
vertical: true
});
Default
null
rtl
Specifies wether the carousel appears in RTL (Right-To-Left) mode.
If set to null
, jCarousel looks for dir="rtl"
attribute on the root
element (or to any of its parent elements) and if found, automatically sets
rtl to true.
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
rtl: true
});
Example with dir attribute:

...

Default
null
center
Specifies wether the targeted item should be centered inside the root element.
Note: This feature is experimental and may not work with all setups.
Example
$('.jcarousel').jcarousel({
center: true
});
Default
false


Ghana's football season to kick start December 21
by Simon Asare, GNAAccra, Nov. 21, GNA - The Ghana Football Association (GFA) has announced that the Ghana Premier League (GPL), Division One League (DOL) and the National Womens League (NWL) will kick start on December, 21, 2019.
The new calendar for the 2019/2020 season indicates that, the registration of players across various leagues which opened on start October 14 would end on December 15, 2019.
Clubs are expected to declare their match venues, strips and authorized signatories for the Club Licensing Board expected to inspect the venues.
The GFA would hold its Ordinary Congress on Thursday, December 12, 2019 as stipulated in its new statutes especially with the commencement of the new season and also review its activities and modalities.
There would be Competition Management System (CMS) training for clubs and referees prior to the start of the league which would be launched on December 17, 2019.

DEVIL'S ADVOCATE By Harvey Karten, Ph.D. Warner Bros./Regency Enterprises Director: Taylor Hackford Writer: Jonathan Lemkin, Tony Gilroy Cast: Keanu Reeves, Al Pacino, Charlize Theron, Jeffrey Jones, Judith Ivey, Craig T. Nelson
Some viewers will put "Devil's Advocate" down because, they'll say, it's just not believable. True, there may be a few items in the movie that will dare you to suspend disbelief. But only once does it become wholly incredible: when it suggests that anyone married to an adoring Mary Ann Lomax (Charlize Theron) might spend one minute looking at another woman. Otherwise, what comes out of the supernatural thriller are words and hints of pure gospel. For example: "New York is the dwelling place of demons" (said by Mrs. Lomax played by Judith Ivey). That lawyers sometimes tell fibs. That vanity is everyone's preferred sin, (without which there would be hardly any movies). That giving cameo appearances to Senator Alfonse D'Amato and boxing promoter Don King is silly. That it is impossible for Al Pacino to be anything but magnetic in any medium he chooses to appear. And that Keanu Reeves really can act.
"Devil's Advocate" is a morality tale whose ingenious coda is not simply a final unravelling. The tack-on--for which you'll have to wait for almost all of its 144-minute length--confirms screenwriters Jonathan Lemkin's and Tony Gilroy's view that we human beings never learn. The Devil will always take the hindmost.
Dramatizing a case in which Kevin Lomax (Keanu Reeves) successfully defends an obviously guilty sleazeball on trial for molesting a high-school kid, director Taylor Hackford acquaints us with a professional who has not known the meaning of the word "defeat." When Lomax was a Florida prosecutor, he ran up a string of sixty-four consecutive convictions. Now, as a defense counsel, he continues his unbroken record of victories. The American legal system does allow an attorney to do his best for his client even if he believes the latter to be at fault--that's the adversarial system--but "Devil's Advocate" is uncomfortable with the presumption of innocence, allowing Lomax to work out for himself the morality or immorality of his calling.
Lured to New York by the charismatic John Milton (Al Pacino), who runs a prestigious law firm, Lomax and his drop- dead-gorgeous wife Mary Ann take up residence in a plush Fifth Avenue apartment against the advice of Lomax's Bible- thumping mother (Judith Ivey). While his wife begins to go bonkers with boredom and loneliness, Lomax continues his string of wins, defending a bizarre man who sacrifices goats in his basement (Delroy Lindo) and one Alexander Cullen (Craig T. Nelson), a tycoon accused of killing his wife, stepson, and maid. Like the Robert Rodriguez-Quentin Tarantino film "From Dusk Till Dawn," the picture heads into off-the-wall occultism at that point, giving way to excesses which both debase its intelligently cynical tone and threatens to turn it into juvenalia. Mary Ann begins to see monsters. First, the face of her neighbor Jackie (Tamara Tunie) turns momentarily hideous. Later the kind and supportive Pam (Debra Monk) appears equally macabre. Considering that we know pretty much from the start that the sharply-dressed, sophisticated and witty John Milton is the Devil, it's a disappointment to see the movie lose its urbane veneer and give itself over to adolescent indulgence.
This fault aside, "Devil's Advocate" remains an edge-of-the- seat stew peppered with comic dialogue throughout. Its extravagant budget shows through Bruno Rubeo's production design, particularly his concept of John Milton's office with its opulent bas-relief, its telltale fireplace, and its outdoor patio featuring a pool which seems to run right off the penthouse roof. James Newton Howard's soundtrack is devilishly eerie, fashioned to be played at full theater volume, adding considerable tension and even wit to the production. What's more it is blessed by actors with remarkable chemistry for one another, highlighting a climactic face off between Reeves and Pacino and an intensely emotional relationship between Reeves and Charlize Theron. Theron, the 5'9" South-African born beauty, has her career-making role as a spirited party girl who goes off the deep end when she moves from her laid-back Florida surroundings to the fiendish Big Apple in a movie which--however excessive at many points--provides chic repartee, handsome design, and professional performances. Rated R. Running Time: 144 minutes. (C) 1997 Harvey Karten

This tutorial was generated from an Jupyter notebook that can be downloaded here.
Quick autodiff tutorial¶
In this tutorial, we’ll go over how to use the derivatives computed by starry
to help in optimization/inference problems. Since the equations in starry
are all analytic, the code uses autodifferentiation to analytically (and quickly) compute gradients of the model with respect to all input parameters.
Let’s begin by importing some stuff.
[1]:
import starry
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as pl
from tqdm import tqdm
from scipy.optimize import minimize
import sys
np.random.seed(8765)
For convenience, before we get started, let’s write a quick function to show side-by-side images of the map as it rotates about its axis. This will help us visualize our original map and the inferred one:
[3]:
def show(map, res=100, nframes=8):
x, y = np.meshgrid(np.linspace(-1, 1, res), np.linspace(-1, 1, res))
theta = np.linspace(0, 360, nframes, endpoint=False)
fig, ax = pl.subplots(1, nframes, figsize=(2 * nframes, 2))
for n in range(nframes):
I = [map(theta=theta[n], x=x[j], y=y[j]) for j in range(res)]
ax[n].imshow(I, origin="lower", interpolation="none", cmap='plasma', extent=(-1, 1, -1, 1))
ax[n].axis('off')
Generating a map¶
Let’s create a low degree (\(l_{max} = 5\)) map of the Earth and plot it using our show()
function:
[4]:
lmax = 5
earth = starry.Map(lmax)
earth.load_image('earth')
show(earth)
Not terrible! Africa and Europe are kind of one big blob, but you can pick out the Americas, Asia, and a smudge that looks to be Australia. Let’s try to recover this map from some occultation light curves!
Generating synthetic occultation data¶
We’re going to pretend that there’s an occultor of radius \(r_o = 0.1\) tracing random paths across the surface of our planet as it rotates. Say we observe 20 of these occultations, each with ~100 cadences. Say we also have a ridiculously good telescope and our SNR is huge, so I’m not going to bother noising the data (though you’re encouraged to play around with this!)
Let’s generate some fake data.
[5]:
npts = 100
nevents = 20
ro = 0.1
xo = []
yo = []
theta = []
dy = []
n = 0
while n < nevents:
# Randomize the occultor path. We randomly pick
# a minimum impact parameter `ymin`, the angle of
# the transit chord `alpha`, and the rotational
# phase of the planet `theta`:
ymin = 2 * np.random.random() - 1
alpha = np.pi * np.random.random() - np.pi / 2
x = np.linspace(-1.5, 1.5, npts)
y = ymin + x * np.tan(alpha)
inds = x ** 2 + y ** 2 <= 1.5 ** 2
if len(x[inds]) > 10:
xo.append(x[inds])
yo.append(y[inds])
dy.append(ro / np.cos(alpha))
theta.append(np.ones_like(x[inds]) * np.random.random() * 360)
n += 1
Now that we have our occultation parameters, let’s compute the light curves for each event using starry
and plot them:
[6]:
# Plot the rays the occultor traces
fig = pl.figure(figsize=(14, 4))
ax = pl.subplot2grid((3, 10), (0, 0), rowspan=3, colspan=4)
res = 100
x, y = np.meshgrid(np.linspace(-1, 1, res), np.linspace(-1, 1, res))
I = [earth(x=x[j], y=y[j]) for j in range(res)]
ax.imshow(I, origin="lower", interpolation="none", cmap='plasma', extent=(-1, 1, -1, 1))
for i in range(nevents):
ax.fill_between(xo[i], yo[i] - dy[i], yo[i] + dy[i], color='w', alpha=0.5)
ax.set_aspect(1)
ax.set_xlim(-1 - ro, 1 + ro);
ax.set_ylim(-1 - ro, 1 + ro);
ax.axis('off');
# Plot the light curves
axlc = np.array([[pl.subplot2grid((4, 10), (i, j)) for i in range(4)] for j in range(4, 9)]).flatten()
flux = [None for i in range(nevents)]
for i in range(nevents):
flux[i] = earth.flux(xo=xo[i], yo=yo[i], ro=ro, theta=theta[i])
axlc[i].plot(flux[i])
axlc[i].axis('off')
Those look pretty cool – the information content of these light curves is huge! To make the inference problem easier, let’s concatenate all the events into a single dataset:
[7]:
xo = np.concatenate(xo)
yo = np.concatenate(yo)
theta = np.concatenate(theta)
flux = np.concatenate(flux)
Exocartography!¶
Now we’re ready to be exocartographers. Armed with our dataset (the xo
, yo
, theta
, and flux
arrays), our task is to find the \((l_{max} + 1)^2 = 36\) map coefficients that best explain the features in the light curves. We’ll do this by minimizing an objective function, which in this case is just plain old chi-squared: the sum of the squares of the difference between our model and the data, normalized by the standard errors. Since our errors are formally zero (since we didn’t
add any noise), let’s set \(\sigma\) to something small but nonzero so we don’t run into numerical issues.
Here’s our chi-squared function:
[8]:
def chisq(y, map, xo, yo, ro, theta, flux, sigma=0.001):
# Assign the map coefficients
map[1:, :] = y
# Compute the model and the chi-squared
model = map.flux(xo=xo, yo=yo, ro=ro, theta=theta)
chi2 = np.sum((model - flux) ** 2) / sigma ** 2
# Return chi squared
return chi2
(Note that we’re actually fixing the \(Y_{0,0}\) coefficient at unity, so we’re really solving for 35 coefficients.)
Let’s use scipy.minimize
to minimize the chi-squared. We initialize the solver with random map coefficients (and fix the zeroth coefficient to one).
[16]:
y = 0.1 * np.random.randn((lmax + 1) ** 2)
map = starry.Map(lmax)
map[0, 0] = 1
%time res = minimize(chisq, y[1:], args=(map, xo, yo, ro, theta, flux))
print(res.message)
print("Function calls: %d" % res.nfev)
print("Best chi-squared: %.5e" % res.fun)
map[1:, :] = res.x
CPU times: user 9.77 s, sys: 20.4 ms, total: 9.79 s
Wall time: 9.78 s
Desired error not necessarily achieved due to precision loss.
Function calls: 4119
Best chi-squared: 2.16519e-06
Looks like it worked! When I ran this on my MacBook, it took 11 seconds and 4748 function calls. Here’s what our recovered map looks like:
[17]:
show(map)
For comparison, here’s the original map:
[11]:
show(earth)
They’re practically identical! Note how tiny the chi-squared is: we definitely found the global minimum. (Remember, though, this is pretty unrealistic since there’s no noise!)
Exo-autodiff-cartography¶
If you’ve been paying close attention, you’ll notice I didn’t actually pass any gradient information to scipy.minimize
, so a lot of time was spent by the optimizier trying to figure out which direction (in a 35-dimensional space) to take steps in. This is pretty inefficient, especially since our formulae are analytic and we can easily compute gradients! So let’s define a new chi-squared function that returns the gradient of the chi-squared in addition to its value:
[19]:
def chisq_grad(y, map, xo, yo, ro, theta, flux, sigma=0.001):
# Assign the map coefficients
map[1:, :] = y
# Compute the model and the chi-squared
model, gradient = map.flux(xo=xo, yo=yo, ro=ro, theta=theta, gradient=True)
chi2 = np.sum((model - flux) ** 2) / sigma ** 2
# Get the derivatives of the model w/ respect to y
dmdy = gradient['y'][1:]
# Now compute the gradient of chi-squared with respect to y
grad = np.sum(2 * (model - flux) * dmdy, axis=1) / sigma ** 2
# Return chi squared **and** gradient
return chi2, grad
Note that whenever map.flux(gradient=True)
is called, derivatives of the flux are also returned as a dictionary. The derivative of chi-squared with respect to the map coefficients is, from simple calculus:
\(\frac{\mathrm{d}\ \chi^2}{\mathrm{d}\ \mathbf{y}} = \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}\ \mathbf{y}} \left( \sum \frac{(m - f)^2}{\sigma^2} \right) = \frac{2}{\sigma^2} \sum (m - f) \frac{\mathrm{d}\ m}{\mathrm{d}\ \mathbf{y}}\)
where \(m\) is the model, \(\mathbf{y}\) are the coefficients, \(f\) is the flux (our data), and \(\sigma\) are the standard errors.
As before, let’s call the minimizer, but this time we specify jac=True
to let scipy
know that our objective function returns the Jacobian (a derivative vector) in addition to the chi-squared.
[20]:
y = 0.1 * np.random.randn((lmax + 1) ** 2)
map = starry.Map(lmax)
map[0, 0] = 1
%time res = minimize(chisq_grad, y[1:], args=(map, xo, yo, ro, theta, flux), jac=True)
print(res.message)
print("Function calls: %d" % res.nfev)
print("Best chi-squared: %.5e" % res.fun)
map[1:, :] = res.x
CPU times: user 1.01 s, sys: 2.45 ms, total: 1.01 s
Wall time: 1.01 s
Optimization terminated successfully.
Function calls: 65
Best chi-squared: 6.10258e-23
Woot! When I ran this on my laptop, it took under 1 second and 60 function calls. That’s more than ten times faster than the previous approach, required about 80 times fewer function evaluations, and just look at that chi-squared!
Here’s our recovered map:
[21]:
show(map)
And the original map for comparison:
[15]:
show(earth)
That’s all for now!

Drag superheroes around the field
This task can help you to check understanding of several aspects of Drag’n’Drop and DOM.
Make all elements with class draggable
– draggable. Like a ball in the chapter.
Requirements:
- Use event delegation to track drag start: a single event handler on
document
for mousedown
.
- If elements are dragged to top/bottom window edges – the page scrolls up/down to allow further dragging.
- There is no horizontal scroll (this makes the task a bit simpler, adding it is easy).
- Draggable elements or their parts should never leave the window, even after swift mouse moves.
The demo is too big to fit it here, so here’s the link.

Made In Chelsea star slams Man Utd’s Brandon Williams and Patrice Evra for girlfriend DMs
Sam Thompson called out the Red Devils pair after contacting Love Island's Zara McDermott through social media site Instagram
by Ned KeatingManchester United legend Patrice Evra and current full-back Brandon Williams has incurred the wrath of reality star Sam Thompson after being caught contacting the Made in Chelsea cast member's girlfriend.
Thompson is currently dating Zara McDermott who herself shot to fame on Love Island in 2018 and was most recently seen on this year's series of The X Factor as part of the band 'No Love Lost'.
The pair got together earlier this year and have not been shy in sharing a glimpse into their romance with both regularly uploading pictures of the other to their social media accounts.
Despite having a boyfriend, it seems McDermott does not remain short of admirers with Evra and Williams apparently contacting her on Instagram .
And Thompson decided to take the pair to task over their actions, though did do it with good humour.
"I've always dreamed of talking to footballers, but no one ever replies to me. The only way I can talk to them is through my girlfriend's phone on the DMs," said Thompson in a clip on his own Instagram account on Saturday night.
"We've got Brandon Williams today who is actually sick and got his debut, congratulations Brandon. Little eye emoji, yes boy. Love that, classic stuff.
"We've got Patrice Evra on there who's like a hero of mine and who I absolutely love. He's sent one of those things where he says 'I love this game'. Why don't they reply to me, but slide into her DMs? I'm just as good."
Made in Chelsea star Thompson then went on to finish the clip by making a joking plea to players of a club far closing to his hometown to get in contact.
"It's always Man United, but where are the Chelsea boys? Mason Mount, slide in. Or Tammy Abraham, you're my hero, come on," he added.
Former Utd full-back Evra married wife Sandra in 2007 and the pair have two children together.

Bluetooth 5: Is it actually better, and do you need it?
Source: Bluetooth SIG
If you've recently bought any sort of smart device it might note that it has support for Bluetooth 5, the latest version of the Bluetooth standard. There's also a good chance that a recent purchase didn't support Bluetooth 5 because not every company is worried about updating to the newest version. That's more than enough to raise some questions.
Luckily, even though Bluetooth can be a tricky subject, the answers about what's "new and improved" and what difference it really makes are fairly easy to answer. Let's take a look at just what Bluetooth 5 brings to the table.
Bluetooth Low-Energy for headphones
Bluetooth Low-Energy (or BLE) was introduced with Bluetooth 4 and it does exactly what you might think — provides a way for devices to communicate that uses less power. That's important when a device runs from a battery, like a phone or wireless headphones.
Prior to Bluetooth 5, BLE was relegated to things like wearables, beacons, and small Internet of Things devices. This means that Bluetooth headphones had to use the regular, more power-hungry Bluetooth radio connection.
While the difference to something like your phone isn't too terrible, it makes a big difference to something with a really tiny battery like a pair of Bluetooth earbuds. More time being charged means less time in your ears.
With Bluetooth 5 all audio devices communicate over Bluetooth Low-Energy. This can make a meaningful difference in battery life, but this isn't always the case. Apple's original AirPods are a good example: when connected to an iPhone the Apple W1 chip could "broker" the Bluetooth connection to monitor the strength and make any small adjustments. On an Android phone, it depended on the standard Bluetooth connection. This is why they had better battery life when used with an iPhone.
Bluetooth Dual Audio
Source: Android Central
Bluetooth Dual Audio means connecting two audio devices like headphones to one source, like a phone.
It's not an entirely new thing — thanks to work by Qualcomm it was an option with Bluetooth on the Galaxy S8. With Bluetooth 5 it's part of the standard and shouldn't depend on a special license from a chip maker.
Note that this means all audio devices, not just headphones. You can connect to two speakers, too or even a pair of headphones and a Bluetooth speaker.
Faster, stronger, and better
The biggest benefits of Bluetooth 5 are faster speeds and more range. And we mean a lot faster and further.
Bluetooth 5 has a maximum of four times the range, eight times the bandwidth, and twice the speed. Just not all of it at the same time.
Bluetooth 5 only makes a difference if both devices use it.
Specifically, devices get to "choose" between faster speeds or more range. Something like a pair of headphones primarily designed for music playback might choose to take advantage of the double throughput speeds, while a device like a Bluetooth tracker tag would benefit from more range.
Bluetooth 5 can transmit data at 2 Mbps, while Bluetooth 4.2 had a maximum of 1 Mbps. Bluetooth 5 can communicate with another device up to 800 feet (240 meters) away while Bluetooth 4.2 was limited to a distance of 200 feet (60 meters).
Remember these are line-of-sight maximums, meaning anything in the way can and will affect the signal. Still, those are some impressive improvements. These improvements also apply to BLE, so that means Internet of Things devices can have a better signal and still save power.
Do you really need Bluetooth 5?
That depends.
Bluetooth 5 only makes a difference if both devices use it. If your phone is Bluetooth 5-enabled but your headphones or car aren't, for example, then none of this applies. There's also a good chance both of those things are true, as automakers are notorious when it comes to updating Bluetooth.
The good news is that Bluetooth 5 is 100% backward-compatible with Bluetooth 4. That means even if both devices don't run the same version they should still connect and operate normally. You just won't see any of the benefits Bluetooth 5 has to offer.
A good way to handle coneections that doesn't involve throwing out your favorite things is to make sure anything new you buy is Bluetooth 5 ready. That can be difficult when you're looking at IoT and smart home devices, though.
Don't stress too much if you're not 100% Bluetooth 5 ready in your tech life. Most of us aren't and by the time Bluetooth 5 is in everything, we'll be seeing a new version and can do it all over again!

A dynamic AABB tree broad-phase, inspired by Nathanael Presson's btDbvt. A dynamic tree arranges data in a binary tree to accelerate queries such as volume queries and ray casts. Leafs are proxies with an AABB. In the tree we expand the proxy AABB by b2_fatAABBFactor so that the proxy AABB is bigger than the client object. This allows the client object to move by small amounts without triggering a tree update.
Nodes are pooled and relocatable, so we use node indices rather than pointers.
| int32 b2DynamicTree::GetHeight | ( | ) | const |
Compute the height of the binary tree in O(N) time. Should not be called often.
| int32 b2DynamicTree::GetMaxBalance | ( | ) | const |
Get the maximum balance of an node in the tree. The balance is the difference in height of the two children of a node.
|
inline |
Get proxy user data.
Move a proxy with a swepted AABB. If the proxy has moved outside of its fattened AABB, then the proxy is removed from the tree and re-inserted. Otherwise the function returns immediately.
|
inline |
Query an AABB for overlapping proxies. The callback class is called for each proxy that overlaps the supplied AABB.
|
inline |
Ray-cast against the proxies in the tree. This relies on the callback to perform a exact ray-cast in the case were the proxy contains a shape. The callback also performs the any collision filtering. This has performance roughly equal to k * log(n), where k is the number of collisions and n is the number of proxies in the tree.
| input | the ray-cast input data. The ray extends from p1 to p1 + maxFraction * (p2 - p1). |
| callback | a callback class that is called for each proxy that is hit by the ray. |
| void b2DynamicTree::ShiftOrigin | ( | const b2Vec2 & | newOrigin | ) |
Shift the world origin. Useful for large worlds. The shift formula is: position -= newOrigin
| newOrigin | the new origin with respect to the old origin |

The workspace path on the Disk can be configured within the Build DSL. If the path parameter is provided, the exwsAllocate step will allocate this workspace path on the Disk. If it's not provided, the exwsAllocate step will fallback to using the Workspace path template parameter defined in the Jenkins global config, External Workspace Definitions section, if any.
Basic Pipeline example:
def customPath = "${env.JOB_NAME}/${PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER_PARAM}/${env.BUILD_NUMBER}" def extWorkspace = exwsAllocate diskPoolId: 'diskpool1', path: customPath ...
Note: It's recommended to use ${ } for variable declaration, instead of standalone $ symbol, as shown in the examples.
