'The Big Leap to X-World' Dr. Daniel's review of The X-Files: Fight The Future
Rating: in for observation (***)
Starring David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, Martin Landau, Blythe Danner, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Mitch Pileggi, John Neville, William B. Davis, Glenne Headly, Bruce Harwood, Lucas Black, Tom Braidwood.
Directed by Rob Bowman. Rated PG-13.
Okay, here's the deal. There's a big ol' rush nowadays toward anything along the lines of "unexplained phenomena," those weird head-scratchers that just seem to happen for no apparent reason. We get a lot of that stuff here in Carver Point, too, believe it or not. There's a man named Herbert Potterman, lived here 63 years, who always seems to get deathly ill about three days before his wife's people have their family reunion. He can be perfectly fine one day, then, Ethel Ann will remind him about her reunion this coming weekend, and he's in my office the next morning, poor soul. He always gets this mysterious aching in his back and stomach that we can't figure out, but I always have to tell Ethel Ann that Herbert'll need to stay home that weekend 'cause it pains him to travel.
Usually, about Monday of the next week, Herbert's pain fades away, and he's back to normal. And, even more mysterious than that, on the Tuesday of that same week, I find a hundred-dollar bill in my mailbox, taped to a fruit jar full of a clear, slightly oily liquid that has a strong scent of distilled spirits about it. Oh, the oddities of the world....
I guess this new-found interest in the unexplainable could be traced to TV's new darling, the "reality" show, starring aliens and crop circles and haunted houses. But I believe it goes beyond that. I think it can be traced to a conspiracy within television, eminating from the Fox network. These people have secretly hooked a good part of the country on a show called "The X-Files", a show devoted to every unexplained mystery you could think of, and a few I bet you never wanted to think about. A sleek combo of sci-fi and horror, wrapped in the guise of almost-documentary style of filming, it plays us all like violins, pulling on every string we have that loves to be scared, and puzzled, and scared some more. And I love it. I love it to death.
That's why I've been geared up for the new version of the show, this time in theatrical form, known as "The X-Files: Fight The Future." If there ever was a TV show that deserved to be a film, this is it. The show has pushed the limits of TV, and it was only logical that movies be the next output. They had the stars, they had the following, they had the creepy little supporting cast, they had it all. So, when the movie opened, I was there. Planted.
The film stars the Dynamic Duo of the Nineties, David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as FBI agents Mulder and Scully, and it literally picks up where the TV show ended its season a few weeks ago, a very interesting twist on the "cliffhanger" theory of TV season-enders. As we pick up, the two are investigating a network of power-brokers (played by John Neville, Martin Landau, and Armin Mueller-Stahl) that are involved in a project concerned with the colonization of the planet by means of alien life forms. The movie pulls all of the tricks it uses on the show, including my favorite semi-villain, the Cigarette-Smoking Man (William B. Davis). We get other quick hits like the "black oil" aliens and the super-bees.
I really don't feel comfortable going any further than that, because I'd get into divulging secrets, and, as any fan of the show can tell you, the only thing worse than a secret is a secret revealed.
Let's do this. I liked the movie, and parts of it impressed me, but it never seemed to reach where it was shooting for. It's good, but it's nowhere near what I was expecting. When a show like The X-Files gets the chance to strut its stuff on a big screen, it ought to absolutely take it to the moon. The movie never makes that leap. Oh, there's more gore than we get to see on TV, and there's some profanity stirred in to spice things up, but, to dump this thing into the middle of a summer line-up, everybody was geared up for super action and heart-pounding suspense and some "WHOA!" special effects, and none of that ever really shows up. The movie is bigger in scope than the show, but it's not near better.
At the same time, I almost think that this might have been the plan all along. Build a big hoo-rah for the movie, tease us with talk of a consummation of the romance between Scully and Mulder, spring some new villains on us, bait us for everything, and then leave us hanging until the new TV season starts. If this is the case, that's almost forgivable. But, if this is the best they can do, somebody might want to wash off the blackboard and start over. The "coincidences" we've learned to accept on TV don't play quite as well on a huge screen as they do on a 22-incher at home with the bulbs out. And, I have to admit, I was less than thrilled that Scully and Mulder act so surprised when they discover a conspiracy going on and alien life involvement. Just what have these folks been doing for five years now, bending spoons with their heads and walking on fire? They've stepped into bigger piles of governmental poo-poo on TV and never even blinked, so why be amazed that it's happening again? Deal with it!
"The X-Files: Fight The Future" has a nice look to it, and, if you follow it as a glorified two-hour episode of the show, then, yes, it works fine. But, if the long-range plan is to pull a "Star Trek" with this, and go full-time cinema, Chris Carter and Crew better tighten some screws and do the same thing they did to make the TV show so popular. They're gonna have to quit playing it safe and push the envelope. Pardon the reference, but they will have to go where no movie has gone before.
So, all that said, all you "X-ers" out there, relax. It works. Maybe not as well as you'll want it to, but it works. And, remember, the first "Star Trek" movie stunk, and they're still going. And there's no way Shatner's gonna get a chance to ruin any of these. With Carter in charge of the world, it could only get better, or worse, which always seems more fun in X-World.

Evolve My Retirement is an exciting new startup focused on providing more realistic and helpful retirement planning.
Founder Nick May approached us with the brief of merging his functioning prototype with an improved user experience structure and design. The application works through a genetic algorithm that generates possible futures for the user based on a set of assumptions and the user's financial information.
Our goal was to simplify the end interface so as to ensure that users could easily use and understand the process even if they were not familiar with the theories being used.
Evolve my retirement is a startup focused on providing more realistic and helpful retirement planning. Evolve My Retirement has a functioning prototype of the processes needed to give such advice, however, this prototype is hard to use and the results are not easily understandable without explanation.
The Brief is to create a simple-to-use interface that makes the process more user friendly, and interprets and provides these results in a way that allows users to understand it.
The application should answer this question: Am I on track for retirement, or do I need to consider a financial advisor?
This is a new service in a marketplace that is crowded with similar services
We must define key strengths and leverage these in Launch Strategy and UX to differentiate the product.
We found that the product had two main strengths - of all the competitors, it produced the most realistic results by considering possible financial fluctuations in its predictions. Secondly, it’s the only product on the market using a genetic algorithm to produce an optimised retirement plan.
Genetic algorithms mimic the process of natural selection, testing multiple strategies and carrying over the best traits to find which one is the “fittest”.
The project was originally called OkinawaZest, as Okinawa has the highest concentration of centenarians in the world. However, the name didn't make sense without the back story, and didn't tell the user what the product does.
We wanted to introduce users to the more exciting concept of using natural selection for better results.
We collectively decided a better name would be Evolve My Retirement. It was more catchy, understandable and relevant to the product.
We also decided to highlight the concept of "evolving" in the copy both within the application and in future marketing pushes.
The User Needs to disclose potentially sensitive information about their financial situation, and must trust that the application will not misuse this information
We need to ensure that the look and feel, voice and tone as well as the informational text on the website reflects reliability and reassurance.
We kept the look and feel simple and friendly, with slightly rounded corners and a light, green colour scheme. While a number of competitors seemed to lean towards more mature darker purple and blue hues, we decided that green gave the product a fresher look and also tied in with the natural theme of "evolving".
Wherever we thought a concept or label might need more explanation, we either included a tooltip or help text depending on how much explanation was needed for the user to fully understand what was being asked of them, and why the application needs the information.
The User needs to fill in a lot of information in order to get reliable results
We need to make this process easy and where possible, make the entry feel more meaningful
The main complication in finding a user-friendly structure is that there are multiple “levels” in one account:
We decided it would be beneficial for the user to create up to two retirement plans - allowing them to create a plan on behalf of someone close to them (children or parents) or even to create an experimental plan.The user can also have two members for each plan, as married couples would share their retirement plan.
Some information needed to be entered per member, and some information was general to the plan. Expenses could be both joint as well as separate. We decided to split the information entry into three main sections: My Plan (general details), Members (Member Specific Information) and Expenses. The Members section is subdivided into two levels
In this way the user has a clear separation between the two member's details but can also easily navigate between them.
We display the expenses data both as a table as well as a graph in order to show the user what the distribution of their essential expenses is like. This allowed us to add more value to the information entry as the user can use the application both to have an overview of their current financial situation as well as for retirement planning purposes.
The two outputted results from the prototype are confusing - one shows the outcome of a single sample trial and another shows a score rating the results from 1 to 10.
Interpret the results to find what key points will be valuable for the user, then display these in an easily understandable way.
The most difficult part of the project was finding a way to explain the concepts of the optimisation, strategy and results. The strategy is really the main takeaway for the user - it shows the optimal financial decisions they can take to prevent themselves from running out of money. However, these are complicated and abstracted financial behaviours that are hard to translate into real impact for the user. Instead, we decided to create a tab for “results” of a strategy, which would provide the user with the answers to the main question of the brief: am I on the right track, or do I need to consider a financial advisor?
We extracted three main messages from the outputted data:
This answers the most pressing question. We show the percentage of trials in which the user ran out of money before the death of the first money.
This adds context to 1. Running out of money 1 year before your predicted death would be much less of a worry that being likely to run out 30 years before.
This adds more context to 1. If the user thinks it is important to leave a legacy, they may still want to consider changing their financial strategy to ensure they are leaving the legacy they desire.
We then supplemented these with other valuable information extracted from the member’s inputted information and the strategy that had been generated:
In the strategy I have chosen, how much luxury spending money do I have?
This was the most relatable and easily understandable part of strategy - luxury spending obviously affected the probability of running out of money as well as potential size of any legacy left. We highlighted this by showing the user their yearly luxury allowance and how much that meant per month and per month per member. This was to make it easier for them to get a sense of what they could do in their current situation to become more in line with the strategy.


Admin AfD Counter Tool
This tool will analyze the AfD closure history of a user and report statistical results. It is currently in beta and may not be reliable or accurate in all cases, and currently only works for the English Wikipedia. The tool searches through the wikitext of AfD pages which have been edited by the Username specified below, and determines how (and if) the user closed that AfD by searching for their signature in key locations. If the signature of the user doesn't always include their username, then you may need to specify an alternate username so that the tool can identify those votes (e.g. if the user's signature links to a different user page which redirects to their user page). This is not common and can be left blank in most cases.
Since computer programs are generally not good at evaluating humanity's intentions through their words, this tool is limited to searching for bolded closures and votes in AfD's. If the user you are searching for doesn't routinely bold their votes, or doesn't use certain keywords in their bolded closures/votes (e.g. Keep, Delete, etc.) then this tool will likely not work well.
You can also specify the maximum number of AfD's to search through (maximum is 250 at this time). In some cases, the number of AfD's displayed will be less than the maximum number specified. This can happen when a user edits an AfD page but doesn't vote (e.g. just leaves a comment).

Introduction
This section describes the object file
information and system actions that create running programs.
Some information here applies to all systems;
information specific to one processor resides in
sections marked accordingly.
Executable and shared object files statically represent programs.
To execute such programs, the system uses the files to create
dynamic program representations, or process images.
As section ''Virtual Address Space'' in Chapter 3 of the
processor supplement describes, a process image has segments that
hold its text, data, stack, and so on. This chapter's major sections
discuss the following:
-
Program Header.
This section complements Chapter 4, describing
object file structures that relate directly to program execution.
The primary data structure, a program header table, locates
segment images within the file and contains other information
necessary to create the memory image for the program.
-
Program Loading.
Given an object file, the system must load
it into memory for the program to run.
-
Dynamic linking.
After the system loads the program it must complete
the process image by resolving symbolic references among the object
files that compose the process.
The processor supplement defines a naming convention for ELF constants
that have processor ranges specified. Names such as DT_
,
PT_
,
for processor specific extensions, incorporate the name of the
processor: DT_M32_SPECIAL
, for example.
Pre-existing processor
extensions not using this convention will be supported.

Lol; some of those were pretty good, especially the last one, because it's true. Virtually every "WYSIWYG" editor is really a "WYSIWYMGIYRRLAAGW" editor >:(
The programmer compiled an array of reasons as to why he can't find a girlfriend with a good <HEAD> on her <BODY>, reason 0 being that he has limited cache.
So often he searches his memory to recall connecting to the TCP/IP tunnel of his last girlfriend -- sometimes even without a secure socket.
His last girlfriend always complained about his lack of comments. He fumed, "I hate commenting!"
Realizing it was a program requirement, he told her she had nice bits.
This resulted in a Syntax Error.
Now she demanded a massage but this was rejected as "Feature Creep."
He smacked her back-end and shouted, "Who's your parent node?!"
He scanned for open ports. He attempted to install a backdoor worm but her response was 403.
While his data uploaded into her input device, she considered terminating the process. But instead she initiated a Do While loop where she recalled a previous boyfriend with a larger pointer.
To expedite the routine routine, she screamed, "Hack into my system! Hack deep into my system! You're 1337, baby!"
 She always does exactly what you tell her to do, even to a fault. She's smart, witty, funny, and loves playing videogames, she also loves it when you play arround with I/O ports, so long as you don't touch the wrong cable. Yup, the computer is the best girlfriend a programmer could ever ask for. hell, I have 3 of them and not a single one of them gets jealous of the others. Especially not the one I put in the kitchen. where she will stay, just like she belongs.
lol, if your in highschool hang arround the marching band kids, you'll likely find at least one girl gamer. My first love was a major gamer, and a programmer..but I got her into that. :P
If you're in college: Look to the CS department. I'm sure it's not a total sausage fest.
 The Average programmer sees his finished code as a work with bugs to fix. The Master programmer knows that no code is without bugs, but always looks to repair them.
Not really a joke but one of my favorite coding quotes.

The ANICE ice-sheet model is a 3-D thermo-mechanical finite difference ice-sheet model and is part of the IMAU-ICE (Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Research Utrecht) ice-sheet model package. The model we use here is the same version as has been used in previous publications 28, 61. In ANICE, ice velocities are calculated on land with the SIA and uses the SSA for sliding, i.e. ice streams and shelf velocities. A Mohr–Coulomb plastic law paramaterisation is employed to derive basal stresses that are used to derive the SSA velocities on land 61, 62.
The surface mass balance is determined with monthly fields of precipitation, temperature and insolation at the top of the atmosphere. The precipitation is adjusted with surface temperature. Surface melting is calculated with an insolation temperature melt model, for which a linear relation is used for temperature combined with the net incoming short-wave radiation, using an internally calculated albedo 61. Sub-shelf melting underneath the ice shelves is included as a heat-transfer equation 63:
The different parameters are described in Supplementary Table 4. For ANICE, n = 1. Here, Toc is the ocean temperatures of each GCM that are vertically interpolated to the depth of the ice shelves and Tf is the freezing temperature 63:

Cummins: Fundamentals Have Taken A Backseat
by MarketGyrationsSummary
- Cummins lowered its guidance for the year after reporting a decline in revenue and net income for Q3.
- Lower volumes due to weak demand is the big issue and Cummins doesn’t seem to think that this is about to change.
- Expectations of an imminent trade deal have helped Cummins rally by 20%, despite the less-than-stellar earnings report.
- A rally is not sustainable if based on weak foundations and must be backed by more than what is just hope.
The Q3 earnings report showed that Cummins (CMI) is currently going through a rough patch. Revenue, for instance, missed consensus estimates.  Such setbacks usually do not bode well for a company. However, there may be another factor that could negate the impact of these headwinds, if only temporarily. What this factor is will be covered next.
Q3 2019 earnings
Revenue declined by 3% to $5.8B and net income fell by 10% to $622M. EPS went from $4.28 a year ago to $3.97. Gross margin and EBITDA both declined compared to a year ago. The table below lists the numbers for Q3.
| (GAAP) | Q3 2018 | Q3 2019 | YoY |
| Revenue | $5943M | $5768M | (3%) |
| Gross margin | 26.1% | 25.9% | - |
| EBITDA | $983M | $958M | (2.6%) |
| Net income | $692M | $622M | (10.1%) |
| EPS | $4.28 | $3.97 | - |
Source: Cummins
In addition, Cummins benefited from tax gains in Q3. If not for these gains, EPS would be lower than reported. Management explains in the Q3 earnings call that:
Net earnings for the quarter was $622 million or $3.97 per diluted share compared to $692 million or $4.28 from a year-ago. Third quarter results were positively impacted by $23 million or $0.14 per diluted share and discrete tax items and the after-tax gains of $28 million or $0.18 from closing out the foreign exchange hedging contracts I referred to earlier.
A transcript of the Q3 earnings call can be found here.
| 2019 Guidance by segment | Revenue |
| Engines | Down 5% to 6% |
| Distribution | Up 2% to 3% |
| Components | Down 4% to 5% |
| Power systems | Down 3% to 4% |
| Electrified power | $40M |
Cummins also dialed down its future outlook. Its guidance now suggests that revenue will decline by 2% for the whole of 2019. The prior guidance called for revenue to stay flat for the year. Except for the distribution segment, all other major segments are expected to show a decline.
Weaker demand is the main reason for the change in outlook. From the Q3 earnings call:
In summary, we are now expecting revenues to be down 2%, for the year lower than our prior guidance of flat.  Lower sales reduced joint venture income in India and the acquisition of Hydrogenics will impact our EBITDA for the year, which we now projected at 15.9% to 16.3% of sales, down from our prior guidance of 16.25% to 16.75% of sales.
All in all, Q3 was not a good quarter for Cummins. The company missed expectations and guidance was lowered. Q3 was likely a quarter that Cummins would rather forget.
Demand is falling in a number of key markets
The quarterly results were driven by weak demand, which in turn led to lower volumes. In fact, the impact of weak demand and lower volumes could have been even greater if it wasn’t for other circumstances compensating to a certain extent. From the Q3 earnings call:
Positive pricing, lower variable compensation, material cost reduction activities and lower warranty expense partially offset the impact of lower volumes and increased investments in research and engineering.
Nevertheless, Cummins still saw broad-based weakness. But not to the same extent in every market. For instance, revenues in North America were flat at $3.6B.
Our third quarter revenues in North America were flat at $3.6 billion. Increased sales of power generation equipment, especially the data center customers were offset by lower shipments of heavy-duty truck and construction engines.
On the other hand, international revenues declined by 8%. Foreign markets were a bigger problem for Cummins than the domestic market.
Our international revenues decreased by 8% in the third quarter of 2019 compared to a year-ago. Third quarter revenues in China, including joint ventures were $1.2 billion, a decrease of 2% over the prior year.
Demand fell in a number of key markets. For example, revenue from Brazil is projected to decrease by 10% in 2019 and India by an even greater amount.
Third quarter revenues in India including joint ventures were $344 million, a reduction of 29% in the third quarter a year-ago with lower demand in all of our major end markets. Industry truck sales decreased 52% year-over-year and even larger decline than we'd expected, driven by continued lack of credit availability. Credit availability also started to impact other markets during the third quarter with construction revenues down 75% as companies struggle to finance construction projects, placing pressure on equipment purchases.
In a nutshell, Cummins is dealing with headwinds on several fronts. Several big developing economies present a problem, but the U.S. market is not exactly roaring either.
The slowdown caught Cummins by surprise
Cummins expected to be confronted with some weakness in certain markets. For instance, Cummins foresaw headwinds in North America. However, Cummins did not expect international markets to drop off as much as they have. From the Q3 earnings call:
The surprise has been how quickly things have gone bad internationally and that was probably not expected at the beginning of the year. I do believe in North America it is a cyclical downturn.
The slowdown has turned out be too much more severe than first thought. Not only did it happen fairly quickly, but the slowdown is more widespread than anticipated.
Typical signs that we're used to reading things like slowing orders, inventory build, et cetera. And now what we're seeing is those things starting to come to fruition. Maybe what's surprising to me is it's broader than I thought. Like we are seeing challenges in India, challenges in China, challenges in – even in Europe is slowing. We saw North America coming, that was all part of what we expected, but some of the challenges in some of the other markets, how quickly we've seen in the large engine markets sort of peak out and begin to turn the other way has been a little surprising. So maybe that's what's new, not the – not necessarily that things would turn down, but just how broadly and how quickly they have.
Such comments from Cummins do not bode well for those hoping for better numbers in upcoming quarterly reports.
Cummins has kept on rallying in spite of all the bad news
But despite Cummins missing earnings estimates, lower guidance and dire statements about an ongoing global slowdown, the stock has kept on rallying. Cummins has gained about 20% since early October despite the less than stellar Q3 earnings report.
The price action in recent weeks suggests that the market has set aside deteriorating fundamentals, at least for the time being. The rally coincides with the news that a trade deal between the U.S. and China is imminent. All attention seems to be focused on this impending trade deal. So much so that other fundamentals have been cast aside. How long this will last is not clear, but it’s clear that the market has high expectations for this trade deal - expectations that are perhaps way too high.

Investor takeaways
Not everything is going wrong at Cummins. There are some pockets of strength in selected markets. For instance, the pickup truck market is holding out in an otherwise challenging market. But as a whole, business is slowing down with demand weakening in many parts of the world. The weak data in the Q3 earnings report and the statements made in the earnings call leave no doubt about this.
Meanwhile, negotiations continue for a trade deal between the U.S. and China. The trade conflict is blamed by many for contributing to, if not causing, the slowdown that many economies are experiencing. The hope is that a deal will help put an end to the uncertainty that is weighing down on companies. An acceleration in growth should lift demand and that is precisely what Cummins needs more than anything else right now.
Apparently, the belief is that a trade deal will help reverse the current state of the global economy. An economy that is characterized by slowing growth. Slow growth tends to be bad for industrial names like Cummins as can be seen in the latest quarterly report. But a reversal in growth should be good for the company. The recent behavior of the stock is a reflection of this.
However, a trade deal is not a sure thing even if quite a few people seem to believe so. It would not be the first time that the euphoria surrounding an impending trade deal turned out to be premature. If it turns out that no trade deal is coming, Cummins will no longer have the benefit of what is essentially a relief rally. A rally based on hope that a trade deal will bring relief.
Attention will then turn back to what has been neglected in the meantime. That includes declining earnings, weak guidance and an outlook that suggests that the worse is yet to come for Cummins. That cannot be good for the stock.
With this in mind, it’s most appropriate to be neutral on Cummins. There is too much riding on a trade deal that may or may not be coming. And even if there is one, there's no guarantee that the global economy won't continue to slow down. The recent stock move is not warranted if based on weak guidance and a deteriorating business environment. The stock may continue to rally on trade headlines, but it’s based more on hope than anything concrete. That’s not sustainable.

WA moves to improve racehorse welfare
by AAPMOVES are underway to improve welfare standards for racehorses in Western Australia, including creating a “passport” for each animal to track them after retirement, and subjecting knackeries and abattoirs to random inspections.
The state government announced on Thursday a new ‘rule of racing’ whereby the industry must aim to rehome all healthy and behaviourally sound thoroughbreds and standardbreds.
Racing and Gaming Minister Paul Papalia said the federal government would be pressured to implement and oversee a National Traceability Register, which was essential to restore confidence in the industry in the wake of the recent scandal surrounding the Meramist Abattoir in Queensland.
“Racing and Wagering Western Australia (RWWA) in collaboration with the State Government has developed a robust welfare plan that incorporates all stages of a racehorse’s life through a program of investment, education, monitoring and regulation.
“Western Australia is leading the nation on racehorse welfare. We are doing more than any other State to look after our racehorses.
“I applaud the industry for getting behind the plan of action and ensuring our racehorses receive the best treatment from birth to death.
“I now call on the Commonwealth Government to play its part and implement and oversee a National Traceability Register as a priority.”

This is the 3rd post in a series ‘How to get started with CI’
Previously, we talked about choosing the correct infrastructure for your CI system. We will now talk about CI tools themselves. There are lots of CI tools out there. Many more than I know about and have listed here. Some tools are good and some, not to my liking.
If you have used a CI tool before then you may find yourself comfortable with that, if that is the case then I’d love to hear about your experiences. Alternatively, if you are new to these tools I have included a few things to consider when choosing a tool:
1. Technology
Don’t choose a CI tool that is not compatible with your environment e.g. if you run linux based servers then you would not choose a windows based tool unless you had the ability to create a windows VM. Before choosing a tool, make sure to investigate the requirements needed by it.
2. Cost
If you have little or no budget then you will be limited to some of the tools that are either free or have community versions. Check the license agreement for terms and conditions about their uses – its best to know what is expected before you start using it.
3. Support &/or Community
Choose a tool that has a good user base or support forums. If you choose otherwise then it may be difficult (if at all) to get help if things do not go as expected or if there are issues with the software. A more established and well known tool means there is a greater probability of someone having a similar issue to you and thus a resolution may be more readily available.
4. Ease of Use & Maintainability
If you choose a tool that is difficult to use, then it will be difficult to adopt into your organisation. For example. CCNET, hugely powerful tool (and one I started with) is configured mostly via XML files (special editors may be available) and build scripts. There is no easy UI to make things smoother. In my opinion, unless you like creating scripts in notepad (or your favourite text editor) then it may not be the one for you. Remember, you probably won’t be at a company forever, so think of the guy that has to pick up this system after you leave – unless you have a simple system, it may get neglected or trashed completely.
5. Choose something ‘Cool’
I personally love new shiny tools. In fact, if there is a developer out there who doesn’t then I’d love to speak with them to find out why. I enjoy testing, evaluating and writing about new tools. So when a new CI system appears on my radar, I give it a go. If you find a tool that keeps you interested then you will enjoy using it.
It is very important for your tool to not be a hassle to use, configure or maintain. If you have to reason for “CI” maintenance that may take hours out of your week then the team is less likely to buy into that situation. My top tip is to use a scoring matrix and score each of the sections above 1 – 10 (1 being worst, 10 being best) and then get a shortlist of the tools that you like. After you have got a shortlist of say 3 tools, then trial them. It is very important to trial them, they may look great on paper but they may not work out how you imagine.
This article talks about the points worth considering when choosing a CI tool. It you have been through this process and feel there are other points worth considering then please do comment and I will add them to the list. If you feel that a particular CI tool was missed from this article then please do add that as well with a link to its website.
The next post in this series will talk about how to implement your first project into a CI tool.

Sorry, but this feature isn't available yet. This is part of a test to gauge interest in new and upcoming features. So thank you, you have just helped improve the user experience of our site.


ColdFusion version, the credentials are stored in different places, but you might be able to retrieve the passwords from the administrative panel as well! :)
Data & Services > Datasources
For ColdFusion 6 and 7 the passwords for DataSources encrypted in the following XML files:
[ColdFusion_Install_Dir]\lib\neo-query.xml
For ColdFusion 8, 9 and 10:
[ColdFusion_Install_Dir]\lib\neo-datasource.xml
Hernan Ochoa (Hexale) wrote a great blogpost [6] on how the passwords for the data stores are being encrypted, so I will not go into details. The most important thing is that by decompiling \lib\cfusion.jar and looking at the \coldfusion\sql\DataSourceDef.class, you can find the seed for the key ("0yJ!@1$r8p0L@r1$6yJ!@1rj") and algorithm (3DES and then Base64 encoding) used.
In case of ColdFusion 6, 7 and 8, the encrypted passwords can be found just by looking at the page source of the individual data sources on the administrative panel (on ColdFusion 9 and 10 this was fixed and you will only see ******** in the page source for the passwords).
No matter how you obtain the encrypted passwords, you can decrypt them with openSSL like this:
echo [encrypted_and_base64_encoded_password] | openssl des-ede3 -a -d -K 30794A21403124723870304C4072312436794A214031726A -iv 30794A2140312472; echo
or, with the python script of Hernan Ochoa (I had to do a small fix in it, oh and you will need pyDes for it):
or, you can just use a CFML like this one from Paul Hassinger:
