Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) is a technique for adaptive bitrate streaming of content over the Internet delivered from conventional web servers. This is a quick overview of DASH for those who are not familiar with it. For a more detailed view of DASH, visit {@link http://dashif.org/guidelines/ dashif.org}.
Every DASH stream is described by a manifest written in XML. Within a manifest file, representation elements describe the DASH stream's audio, video, and text sources. There may be more than one representation of the same content. These typically differ in terms of bitrate and resolution, although there can be some other variations as well.
Representations are grouped into one or more adaptation sets, and a DASH client can switch automatically between representations within a set. Adaptation sets can differ in codec and language. DASH streams usually have audio and video in separate adaptation sets. Although the DASH specification allows for audio and video to be multiplexed, the Shaka Player does not support this type of stream.
For the Shaka Player to adapt and choose the best representation for the user's available bandwidth, you must encode your content into more than one resolution and bitrate. It is up to you what bitrates and resolutions make sense for your site. Note that you can encode at multiple bitrates for a single resolution.
Example video encoding scheme:
There are many open-source tools to transcode video, including:
A DASH packager is required to get your media ready to stream. There are a few open-source packagers available for MP4 / ISO BMFF streams, including:
Your DASH packager will convert your content to a valid, segmented ISOBMFF file and generate a DASH manifest (MPD file). Most DASH packagers can not transcode your media into multiple resolutions and bitrates. (DASHEncoder does both.)
To package WebM streams for DASH, the WebM project provides tools for this:


The documentation lives in the CouchDB source tree. We’ll start by forking and closing the CouchDB GitHub mirror. That will allow us to send the contribution to CouchDB with a pull request.
If you don’t have a GitHub account yet, it is a good time to get one, they are free. If you don’t want to use GitHub, there are alternate ways to contributing back, that we’ll cover next time.
Go to https://github.com/apache/couchdb and click the “fork” button in the top right. This will create a fork of CouchDB in your GitHub account. Mine is janl, so my fork lives at https://github.com/janl/couchdb. In the header, it tells me me my “GitHub Clone URL”. We need to copy that and start a terminal:
$ git clone https://github.com/janl/couchdb.git
$ cd couchdb
$ subl .
I’m opening the whole CouchDB source tree in my favourite editor. It gives me the usual directory listing:

The documentation sources live in share/doc/src, you can safely ignore all the other files and directories.
First we should determine where we want to document this inside the documentation. We can look through http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/ for inspiration. The JSON Structure Reference looks like a fine place to write this up.
The current state includes mostly tables describing the JSON structure (after all, that’s the title of this chapter), but some prose about the number representation can’t hurt. For future reference, since the topic in the thread includes views and different encoding in views (as opposed to the storage engine), we should remember to make a note in the views documentation as well, but we’ll leave this for later.
Let’s try and find the source file that builds the file http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/json-structure.html – we are in luck, under share/doc/src we find the file json-structure.rst. That looks promising. .rst stands for ReStructured Text (see http://thomas-cokelaer.info/tutorials/sphinx/rest_syntax.html for a markup reference), which is an ascii format for writing documents, documentation in this case. Let’s have a look and open it.
We see ascii tables with some additional formatting, all looking like the final HTML. So far so easy. For now, let’s just add to the bottom of this. We can worry about organising this better later.
We start by adding a new headline:
Number Handling
===============
Now we paste in the rest of the main email of the thread. It is mostly text, but it includes some code listings. Let’s mark them up. We’ll turn:
ejson:encode(ejson:decode(<<"1.1">>)).
<<"1.1000000000000000888">>
Into:
.. code-block:: erlang
ejson:encode(ejson:decode(<<"1.1">>)).
<<"1.1000000000000000888">>
And we follow along with the other code samples.
I cleaned up the text a little but to make it sound more like a documentation entry as opposed to a post on a mailing list.
The next step would be to validate that we got all the markup right. I’ll leave this for later. For now we’ll contribute our change back to CouchDB.
 Fill in the description with something useful and hit the “Send Pull Request” button.
And we’re done!

Implementation and architecture¶
Guacamole is not a self-contained web application and is made up of many parts. The web application is actually intended to be simple and minimal, with the majority of the gruntwork performed by lower-level components.
Users connect to a Guacamole server with their web browser. The Guacamole client, written in JavaScript, is served to users by a webserver within the Guacamole server. Once loaded, this client connects back to the server over HTTP using the Guacamole protocol.
The web application deployed to the Guacamole server reads the Guacamole protocol and forwards it to guacd, the native Guacamole proxy. This proxy actually interprets the contents of the Guacamole protocol, connecting to any number of remote desktop servers on behalf of the user.
The Guacamole protocol combined with guacd provide protocol agnosticism: neither the Guacamole client nor the web application need to be aware of what remote desktop protocol is actually being used.
The Guacamole protocol¶
The web application does not understand any remote desktop protocol at all. It does not contain support for VNC or RDP or any other protocol supported by the Guacamole stack. It actually only understands the Guacamole protocol, which is a protocol for remote display rendering and event transport. While a protocol with those properties would naturally have the same abilities as a remote desktop protocol, the design principles behind a remote desktop protocol and the Guacamole protocol are different: the Guacamole protocol is not intended to implement the features of a specific desktop environment.
As a remote display and interaction protocol, Guacamole implements a superset of existing remote desktop protocols. Adding support for a particular remote desktop protocol (like RDP) to Guacamole thus involves writing a middle layer which “translates” between the remote desktop protocol and the Guacamole protocol. Implementing such a translation is no different than implementing any native client, except that this particular implementation renders to a remote display rather than a local one.
The middle layer that handles this translation is guacd.
guacd¶
guacd is the heart of Guacamole which dynamically loads support for remote desktop protocols (called “client plugins”) and connects them to remote desktops based on instructions received from the web application.
guacd is a daemon process which is installed along with Guacamole and runs in the background, listening for TCP connections from the web application. guacd also does not understand any specific remote desktop protocol, but rather implements just enough of the Guacamole protocol to determine which protocol support needs to be loaded and what arguments must be passed to it. Once a client plugin is loaded, it runs independently of guacd and has full control of the communication between itself and the web application until the client plugin terminates.
guacd and all client plugins depend on a common library, libguac, which makes communication via the Guacamole protocol easier and a bit more abstract.
The web application¶
The part of Guacamole that a user actually interacts with is the web application.
The web application, as mentioned before, does not implement any remote desktop protocol. It relies on guacd, and implements nothing more than a spiffy web interface and authentication layer.
We chose to implement the server side of the web application in Java, but there’s no reason that it can’t be written in a different language. In fact, because Guacamole is intended be an API, we encourage this.
RealMint¶
Guacamole is now a generalized remote desktop gateway, but this was not always the case. Guacamole began as a purely text-based Telnet client written in JavaScript called RealMint (“RealMint” is an anagram for “terminal”). It was written mainly as a demonstration and, while intended to be useful, its main claim to fame was only that it was pure JavaScript.
The tunnel used by RealMint was written in PHP. In contrast to Guacamole’s HTTP tunnel, RealMint’s tunnel used only simple long-polling and was inefficient. RealMint had a decent keyboard implementation which lives on now in parts of Guacamole’s keyboard code, but this was really the extent of RealMint’s features and usability.
Given that it was just an implementation of a legacy protocol, and that several other JavaScript terminal emulators exist, most of which well-established and stable, the project was dropped.
VNC Client¶
Once the developers learned of the HTML5 canvas tag, and saw that it was already implemented in Firefox and Chrome, work started instead on a proof-of-concept JavaScript VNC client.
This client was purely JavaScript with a Java server component, and worked by translating VNC into an XML-based version of the same. Its development was naturally driven by VNC’s features, and its scope was limited to forwarding a single connection to a set of users. Although relatively slow, the proof-of-concept worked well enough that the project needed an online place to live, and was registered with SourceForge as “Guacamole” - an HTML5 VNC client.
As Guacamole grew and became more than a proof-of-concept, the need for speed increased, and the old RealMint-style long polling was dropped, as was the use of XML.
As WebSocket could not be trusted to be supported at the time, and Java had no WebSocket standard for servlets, an equivalent HTTP-based tunnel was developed. This tunnel is still used today if WebSocket cannot be used for any reason.
Remote Desktop Gateway¶
A faster text-based protocol was developed which could present the features of multiple remote desktop protocols, not just VNC. The entire system was rearchitected into a standard daemon, guacd, and a common library, libguac, which drove both the daemon and protocol support, which became extendable.
The scope of the project expanded from an adequate VNC client to a performant HTML5 remote desktop gateway and general API. In its current state, Guacamole can be used as a central gateway to access any number of machines running different remote desktop servers. It provides extendable authentication, and in the case you need something more specialized, a general API for HTML5-based remote access.

Tight security in Athens before annual November 17 march
Drones, helicopters and 5,000 police deployed for annual rally marking 1973 uprising that often descends into violence.
Drones, helicopters and some 5,000 police are expected to be deployed in central Athens as part of a tight security operation over an annual protest marking the anniversary of a 1973 uprising against Greece's then-military government that regularly descends into violence.
The November 17 demonstration commemorates the uprising at the Athens Polytechnic which set into motion a chain of events that toppled the US-backed military government - known in Greece as "the Junta" - in 1974.

The demonstrators have traditionally used the anniversary to voice opposition to US "imperialism", marching outside Washington's embassy to mark the crushing of the uprising which saw a tank bursting through the gates of the Polytechnic, killing at least 24 people and leaving deep-rooted suspicion towards authority among Greeks.
More recently, participants have also used the rally to denounce the harsh austerity measures imposed on Greece by international creditors over the past decade.

This year's protest on Sunday is expected to be dominated by opposition to the conservative government of Kyriakos Mitsotakis, elected in July on a promise to strengthen law and order, among others.
Mitsotakis's administration has already come under fire over police operations against anarchist squats and demonstrators. There is also tension over a recent amendment to facilitate police checks in universities, which has prompted several student demonstrations.
The strict security measures will once again be focused on Exarchia, a central Athens district from where anti-establishment rioters traditionally mount evening raids on police after the conclusion of the main anniversary march.
Greek media this week quoted police as saying that they also have plans for dealing with attackers that climb up onto the roofs of buildings in the area in order to hurl various objects at police. Authorities will also use the helicopters and drones to relay visual images to an operations centre.
"We will be there with 5,000 officers," police unionist Stavros Balaskas told Ellada radio.
Throwing a Molotov cocktail - a fairly frequent occurrence at demonstrations in Greece - will now be punishable by up to 10 years in prison, instead of the five years previously.
"Laws and regulations are needed for Greek citizens to feel safe," Justice Minister Kostas Tsiaras told Parliament recently.
Athens Mayor Kostas Bakoyannis, a nephew of Mitsotakis, urged respect for the city.
"On this anniversary, let's send out the right message. A shared message about memory. We should not obscure the essence which is the struggle of youth for democracy. On this anniversary, let's show respect toward the city," he said in a Facebook message on Friday.
On Monday, some 200 students demonstrating at the Athens University of Economics were surrounded by anti-riot police who used tear gas and arrested two protesters.

Rent The Runway: A College Girl's Dream
Written on October 30th, 2017 by DiannePhoto by Kris Atomic on Unsplash
Hi gals!
For the past two years, I’ve worn the same black dress to events. I’ve shopped about two times in the last year and my wardrobe consists of blacks (a lot of blacks) and neutrals. This past weekend, we celebrated our friends Jamilah and Ray’s marriage and for the first time, I really didn’t want to wear the same black dress. Figures.
I haven’t bought a dress in a long time because my body keeps changing. I get extremely frustrated trying on dresses and it just doesn’t fit in certain areas. When a dress doesn’t fit, I resort to either ditching the event or buying a new one. As a college student, it is extremely hard to pay for a well-made dress. I just don’t want to pay for a dress I will only wear once. I mean, you understand, right?
One day, I decided to explore my app store. Who would have thought shopping for dresses these days involved an app store? I found apps I’ve used before like Poshmark, then I stumbled upon Rent The Runway. Honestly, it sounded enticing. I could never afford Runway clothes, but what the heck - let’s give it a try.
I looked through the app, saved some dresses in my account for future events, but never used it until this past week.
Rent The Runway: A College Girl’s Dream
Like I mentioned, I attended my friend’s wedding this past weekend.I rented the dress I wore and I felt comfortable in it. I felt like a million bucks. I felt put together. I felt beautiful in it.
I rented this dress for 4 days. Scheduled the delivery to my parent’s house on Friday, 27 October 2017, but arrived on Thursday, 26 October 2017. A week before the wedding, the rental price was around $30-$45, so I waited until the weekend before to rent it. When I checked back, the rental price went down to $30, so SCORE!
Here’s a breakdown of my rental in US Dollars
Dress Rental - 30
Insurance - 5
Shipping - 9.95
Return - Included (but they say FREE)
Estimated Taxes - 2.30
--------------------------------
Order Total: 47.25
Honestly, not bad considering this rental cost $258 in retail. On top of this, I thought I was only renting the size I picked out, but you get an additional size for FREE. Picking the size was fairly easy. If you’re like me and the dress or dresses you currently own only have S,M,L instead of numbers - RTR makes it easy for you find the perfect dress and size. You can put in your height, size and look through reviews (if available) from people who are of your same height, body type, etc. I originally ordered a size 2 and picked a size 4 as my extra just to make sure. I fit in the 4 comfortably, but size 2 was the perfect size and that’s what I wore at the wedding.
What came in the mail was a garment bag with two dresses (the same, but different sizes), however, you do get an option to have an additional dress (different) instead of an additional size for extra cost. A return mailing label is also included.
Insurance covers stains, slight rips (you know, the accidental stuff). I didn’t have to worry about dry cleaning at all, too. All you have to do is put it back in the garment bag after you’re done and drop it off at any UPS store before noon on your return date. Easy!
The dress looked exactly like the image on the app and it is definitely very well made!
So, will I be using Rent The Runway again? 100% YES
If you’re interested in trying out RTR especially now that the holidays are approaching, here’s a a coupon code that will get you $30 off.
If you decide to use this code, RTR will also give me $30

Taking a break
After three years maintaining an open source project, it’s time to take a few months of me time.
TL;DR
I’m taking a break to do things I’ve been missing. I will be back, no later than September 1st, 2018.
Rusoto history and running an open source project
Back in early 2015, Anthony DiMarco and I started Rusoto. Rust’s promises of performance and correctness looked like a perfect match for cloud computing. Our employer at the time was an expert AWS consulting business and we knew an SDK for AWS would be required before it could take off in the cloud. So we made it.
I’ve learned a tremendous amount in three years of open source maintainership. One thing I’ve learned is I am susceptible to spending all my time working on it, to the detriment of other hobbies and activities I enjoy.
Another thing I’ve learned is it’s immensely frustrating when a maintainer goes silent. It’s understandable and more common than one would think. I’d like to avoid it, so here’s a note saying why I’m taking a break and that I will be back.
There are six people with maintainer rights to Rusoto. It will keep moving forward and I’m excited to see where it will be when I get back to it.
What I’ll be doing
I’m going to spend more time riding my motorcycles. More camping trips with my wife, more visiting family.
I’m also going to level up my metalworking skills and get my 1971 Plymouth Duster roadworthy again.
Contributors, users, friends: thank you for your support. Here’s to another three years of Rusoto. 🙂


Uncovering the pathway to wine's acidity
| Source: | University of Adelaide |
| Summary: | Wine researchers say their latest discovery may one day lead to winemakers being able to manipulate the acidity of wines without the costly addition of tartaric acid. |
University of Adelaide wine researchers say their latest discovery may one day lead to winemakers being able to manipulate the acidity of wines without the costly addition of tartaric acid.
The team of researchers has uncovered a key step in the synthesis of natural tartaric acid in wine grapes — identifying and determining the structure of an enzyme that helps make tartaric acid in the grapes.
"Tartaric acid is important in all wines — red, white and sparkling — providing the finished wine with the vital acid taste to balance the sweetness of alcohol," says project leader Associate Professor Chris Ford, Interim Head of the University of Adelaide's School of Agriculture, Food and Wine.
"For example, in white wines such as a dry Riesling from the Eden Valley, the liveliness of the wine on the palate and the delicate balance of fruit flavours is due to careful management of acid levels in the grapes and during winemaking.
"However, it is often the case that natural levels of acidity in grapes are not enough for winemakers' requirements, requiring the addition of more tartaric acid."
Estimates have suggested that this costs over $10 million to the Australian wine industry each vintage, so understanding what controls the natural levels of acids like tartaric in the grape berry has the potential to save the industry significant sums of money.
"For this to become a reality, we need first to understand the details of the biochemical pathway that produces tartaric acid in the grape," says Associate Professor Ford.
This recent discovery follows an earlier collaboration with University of California Davis, when in 2006 the first enzyme in the six-step pathway that leads from vitamin C (ascorbic acid) to tartaric acid was discovered. Now a second enzyme has been identified and its structure determined and results published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry.
Associate Professor Chris Ford and Dr John Bruning, a protein crystallographer and enzymologist from the School of Biological Sciences and Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing, worked with researchers at Flinders University, the James Hutton Institute, Dundee, and postgraduate students Crista Burbidge, Emi Schutz and Yong Jia. They identified the enzyme based on its similarity to a bacterial enzyme with the same properties.
The enzyme was confirmed on the basis of its biochemical activity, and crystals of the enzyme grown so that its structure could be determined to atomic resolution using high-powered X-rays.
"Now that we understanding the 3D structure of this enzyme we can define its function and therefore its chemical mechanism and how it carries out its job in the grape," says Dr Bruning.
"That means we can modify the structure for biotechnological purposes down the line, such as altering the protein to change tartaric acid levels in the plant, instead of directly adding the acid at huge cost to winemakers."
Associate Professor Ford says: "As each piece of this intriguing puzzle falls in to place, our understanding of the metabolism of this critical grape acid increases. We now need to get to grips with the genetic, environmental and viticultural factors we may be able to manipulate to modulate the natural levels of tartaric acid in the grape."

A huge U.S. bank is making a compelling case for snapping up shares right now in a Canadian miner
by Scott BarlowMorgan Stanley analysts are predicting a rebound in global economic growth and manufacturing activity that will benefit base metals prices and miners everywhere, and they believe Canada’s Teck Resources Ltd. will be one of the most lucrative ways to benefit from the trend.
Early signs of a recovery in the factory sector make the forecast all the more compelling.
Chetan Ahya, Morgan Stanley’s chief global economist, expects the recovery in key global indicators such as purchasing manager surveys will gain momentum, and this is very good news for base metals miners.
“A [first quarter] recovery is on the cards: Global growth should recover … as trade tensions and monetary policy are easing simultaneously for the first time since the downtrend began," the analyst said in a report this week titled 2020 Global Macro Outlook: The Late-Cycle Expansion Extends.
The first accompanying chart shows a close relationship between resource prices – as measured by the BMO Equal Weight Global Base Metals Hedged to CAD Index ETF – and global manufacturing activity.

The blue line on the chart represents the JPMorgan Global Manufacturing PMI, a composite index. This benchmark compiles national surveys of manufacturing executives who answer a series of questions regarding trends in hiring, business activity and orders for new goods. Readings above 50 indicate growth (as of Oct. 31, the last data point, it stood at 49.8).
The metals ETF has stabilized since the PMI bottomed in July and began recovering. Investors should always remember that “correlation does not equal causation” when looking at charts like these, but subjectively it makes perfect sense that rising manufacturing activity has lifted demand and prices for related commodities.
In a Nov. 19 report, Morgan Stanley mining analyst Carlos De Alba noted the significant profit potential in the current global economic environment. When the U.S. manufacturing PMI (not shown on chart) drops below 48, as it did in September, and a recession did not follow in subsequent months, the
S&P Metals and Mining index significantly outperformed the S&P 500, on average, in the following 12 months.
Mr. De Alba highlighted Teck, along with U.S.-based Freeport-McMoRan Inc., as stocks best positioned to benefit from the recovery in the mining industry. The analyst highlighted Teck’s strong balance sheet and strong copper production growth outlook as primary reasons.
The second chart compares Teck’s performance to the global PMI. The relationship is less close than between PMIs and commodity prices, but the stock price did peak just after the index in early 2018, and can be expected to follow PMIs higher.
Morgan Stanley’s base case is for copper prices to average US$3 a pound in 2020, and metallurgical coal prices average US$141 a tonne, which gives Teck a target price of $28.63 next year. The stock is currently trading just under $21, so the target price implies a return of more than 35 per cent in 2020.
Morgan Stanley’s view is rosy, but a position in Teck is not without risk. A global economy that fails to recover in 2020 would likely result in losses. Furthermore, on Thursday, Bank of Montreal analyst Jackie Przybylowski downgraded the stock to “market perform” from “outperform” on fears of low coal production. Ms. Przybylowski‘s stock price target, however, remains much higher than Morgan Stanley’s, at $37.

Finneas teases “experimental” second album from Billie Eilish
"There's just a lot of stories we felt we didn't get to tell yet"
Billie Eilish‘s brother and frequent collaborator Finneas has teased that the singer’s second album will see her heading in an “experimental” new direction.
The producer, real name Finneas O’Connor, explained that the follow-up to 2019’s ‘When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?‘ will allow the singer to “evolve” her sound.
He told Billboard at the American Music Awards: “I think so far, in album two…there’s just a lot of stories we felt we didn’t get to tell yet.
“We’re just trying to tell all those and we’re being a little bit experimental. I think if you’re not trying to change things a little bit, you’re not evolving. So I think we’re just trying to embrace everything that we are proud of in our music and also just try new things and experiment and give people stuff to look forward to.”
When asked about their process of working together, he admitted that the pair experienced “creative disagreements” but he stressed that it was a healthy part of working together.
“I think that’s probably the number one reason why collaboration is good,” he said.
“You disagree with each other about things and then what we always say is whichever one of us is more passionate about the issue is the winner because if you care about something enough to fight for it, that means it’s probably a good thing.”
Eilish emerged triumphant at the AMAs last night, picking up two awards for Best New Artist of the Year and Favourite Artist – Alternative Rock.
She also delivered an incendiary performance of ‘All The Good Girls Go To Hell’, which saw her being backed by a fiery display of pyrotechnics.

A Mocha like BDD testing framework for Go
No extensive documentation nor complicated steps to get it running
Run tests as usual with go test
Colorful reports and beautiful syntax
Inspired by the flexibility and simplicity of Node BDD and frustrated by the rigorousness of Go way of testing, we wanted to bring a new tool to write self-describing and comprehensive code.
Describe
and It
blocks as you wantBefore
, BeforeEach
, After
and AfterEach
for setup and teardown your testsDescribe
and It
blocksSince go test
is not currently extensive, you will have to hook Goblin to it. You do that by adding a single test method in your test file. All your goblin tests will be implemented inside this function.
package foobar
import (
"testing"
. "github.com/franela/goblin"
)
func Test(t *testing.T) {
g := Goblin(t)
g.Describe("Numbers", func() {
g.It("Should add two numbers ", func() {
g.Assert(1+1).Equal(2)
})
g.It("Should match equal numbers", func() {
g.Assert(2).Equal(4)
})
g.It("Should substract two numbers")
})
}
Ouput will be something like:
Nice and easy, right?
Yes! Goblin will help you to test asynchronous things, like goroutines, etc. You just need to add a done
parameter to the handler function of your It
. This handler function should be called when your test passes.
...
g.Describe("Numbers", func() {
g.It("Should add two numbers asynchronously", func(done Done) {
go func() {
g.Assert(1+1).Equal(2)
done()
}()
})
})
...
Goblin will wait for the done
call, a Fail
call or any false assertion.
Gomega is a nice assertion framework. But it doesn’t provide a nice way to hook it to testing frameworks. It should just panic instead of requiring a fail function. There is an issue about that here.
While this is being discussed and hopefully fixed, the way to use Gomega with Goblin is:
package foobar
import (
"testing"
. "github.com/franela/goblin"
. "github.com/onsi/gomega"
)
func Test(t *testing.T) {

A couple of comments at the hectic Caucasian Lullaby discussion reminded me about Charles Babbage and his hatred of “street disturbances”. This was the subject of a brief snippet posted here as long ago as 19 January 2004. I thought I would dig it out of the archive and reproduce it here. Much to my annoyance, I failed to identify the source of my quotations, and now I cannot recall where I read them. Very slapdash.
When he wasn't inventing the computer, Charles Babbage spent much of his time getting het up about what he called “street disturbances”. These seem to have consisted almost entirely of what most people call “music”. He wrote a helpful list of “instruments of torture permitted by the Government to be in daily and nightly use in the streets of London”:
Organs, Bagpipes, Brass bands, Accordians, Fiddlers, Halfpenny whistles, Harps, Tom-toms, Harpsichords, Trumpets, Hurdy-gurdies, Shouting out objects for sale, Flageolets, Religious canting, Drums, Psalm-singing.
And apart from the Government, responsible for allowing this mayhem, Babbage knew who to blame: “Tavern-keepers, Public-houses, Girl-shops, Beer-shops, Coffee-shops, Servants, Children, Visitors from the country, Ladies of doubtful virtue, Occasionally titled ladies; but these are almost invariably of recent elevation, and deficient in that taste which their sex usually possess”.


Example:
Collections.unmodifiableList(Collections.singletonList("abc"));
In order to detect the methods that return unmodifiable collections, the inspection uses the org.jetbrains.annotations.Unmodifiable
and org.jetbrains.annotations.UnmodifiableView
annotations. Use them to extend the inspection to your own unmodifiable collection wrappers.

I've just built a NanodeRF 433. Tested all power points during build. Added "brown out" capacitor fix. have successfully run the guide sketches using static IPs. I've modified DHCP.cpp to increase the timeout to 60sec. I've tried changing the MAC address. I've checked the pin 27 voltage @ 3.304 volts. I've downloaded the newest firmware and sketch files.
1) DHCP does not work with any of the Guide Sketches. (DHCP works fine on Arduino Ethernet board, so I don't think it's my router - please advise)
2) NanodeRF_multinode does not work with Static IP as shown in this thread. A modified version of Guide 05-Basic Multinode Web Client using static IP is working posting to my emoncms account. (but not relaying the time to emonglcd)
The Ethercard testDHCP sketch shows:
[testDHCP] MAC: 74:69:69:2D:30:31 Setting up DHCP DHCP failed My IP: <IP_ADDRESS> Netmask: <IP_ADDRESS> GW IP: <IP_ADDRESS> DNS IP: <IP_ADDRESS>
Any Ideas of what I should test next?
Thanks, Pat
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
This looks to be the same problem as I'm experiencing http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/1079
Problem with the ethercard library perhaps?
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Looks like this is an issue with the Ethercard library
https://github.com/jcw/ethercard/issues/45
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Does anyone have DHCP working on the NanodeRF that openenergymonitor sells?
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Assuming that Ethercard is the issue, might it be prudent to fork the library (and any others emon uses) when it next becomes stable?
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Hi guys,
Very sorry about this, it seems to me that some latest EtherCard updates might have broken DHCP. Last time I used it a few weeks ago it worked fine for me. Yes, us forking the library to the openenergymonitor git hub would be a good idea. At least then we would be in control of pushing out updates (and testing them first!).
I'm currently on a train, when I get home tonight/tomorrow morning I will do some testing. For the time being I have attached the version of EtherCard I currently have on my laptop, I think it worked fine with DHCP. Does this work for you?
Sorry again, and best of luck.
Glyn.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Update: It has come to my attention that the problem might be due to a few Nanodes accidently being shipped with the Duemilanove bootloader. Does this apply to any of you guys? Can you upload the the Nanode when you select Uno under tools>boards in the Arduino IDE? If you can only upload when Duemilanove is selected then this might be the cause of the problem.
The Duemilanove, bootloader will cause issues since the reset watchdog won't work. You can try commenting out #define uno to disable the reset watchdog. You can put the uno bootloader on yourself using another arduino: http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoISP. If you're not happy or able to do this please get in touch via the shop and we'll send you an an Atmega with the Uno bootloader.
Sorry again, all the best,
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Thanks a lot for the attention. I'll try the new ethercard library. I am using the UNO menu option for uploading to the device.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
It's the Uno bootloader in my board.
I've tried with the ethercard library you attached, still no joy with dhcp.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Just tested again here with the latest ethercard library and UNO and dhcp worked fine:
I get an output like this in the serial window:
[webClient]
DHCP status: 1
IP: <IP_ADDRESS>
GW: <IP_ADDRESS>
DNS: <IP_ADDRESS>
DNS status: 1
SRV: <IP_ADDRESS>
Data sent: /api/post.json?apikey=461008d1a226629f5daf81cf4903ac16&json={rf_fail:1}
Time request sent
Time: t10,17,12
Data sent: /api/post.json?apikey=461008d1a226629f5daf81cf4903ac16&json={rf_fail:1}
OK recieved
Not sure what's causing the issue, Might be worth trying a different MAC address, do you get any positive results with any of the ethercard examples?
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
OK, I've tested again using the copy of ethercard you attached the other day and with a fresh copy downloaded from github.
With a recent copy of NanodeRF_Power_RTCrelay_GLCDtemp (last couple of weeks) I get :
[testDHCP]
MAC: 74:69:69:2D:30:31
Setting up DHCP
DHCP failed
My IP: <IP_ADDRESS>
Netmask: <IP_ADDRESS>
GW IP: <IP_ADDRESS>
DNS IP: <IP_ADDRESS>
Using the ethercard testDHCP sketch, I get pretty much the same result, no dhcp, no IP address.
Tried a few different MAC addresses, resetting router, swapping switches, connecting direct to router. Even tried another router the other day.
Roll back a few months (early april) with NanodeRF_Power_RTCrelay_GLCDtemp and ethercard, testDHCP and the nanode sketch both have DHCP working and reciece IP addresses almost instantly.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
If your having issues with DHCP please could note the make and model of your router. I have heard of issues with older BT home hubs. I have a BT home hub 3 and it works fine.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
I'm using a Netgear N150 DGN1000 router. I tested out on a spare Netgear god-knows-what with the same results.
I'm going to have a root around in my spares box, I'm sure I've got a Thompson router to try out on.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
I just grabbed the freshly updated jcw/ethercard library from github.
I built the latest NanodeRF_Power_RTCrelay_GLCDtemp. I had to remove the call to ether.dhcpValid() in dhcp_dns.ino to get it to build. I then loaded it on my NanodeRF (purchased and built in the past couple weeks), and now it resolves the reference to "emoncms.org" for the first time for me, and I am logging data from my emonTx build.
I suspect some of the logic in dhcp_dns() and maybe NanodeRF_Power_RTCrelay_GLCDtemp should be updated, and I haven't attempted that.
Thanks much to those who have been working on this (Victor and Chris, I believe, and maybe others.)
-Ed
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
ether.dhcpValid() is included in the new EtherCard library (version -0c4c1a6 dated 7/10/2012), I believe.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
As of two days ago the EtherCard DHCP API has changed slightly, I've updated our Nanode RF examples today to reflect this.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
I've been asked to try the Ethercard library from https://github.com/vicatcu/ethercard
Compiling the latest Nanode sketch with this library, my nanode now gets an IP address, Yay!
However, I have a solid red light on the nanode, and I aren't seeing any inputs updating on enoncms.org. Arrgh!
I'll have another look tomorrow night, see if I've done something wrong in the sketch. All I've done is added my API key, not sure what else it could be.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
I've just uploaded the new nanode sketch with new jcw.ethernet and I also have an IP address but the red LED is on continuous (except after 10 fails when it resets).
I see in the Serial Monitor that it is trying to send the value's, but it's not getting to emoncms.
Dennis
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Hi guys, sorry about this. I've been in contact with Victor to try and resolve the current issue with the EtherCard library. In the meantime I could try and older EtherCard attached to one of my post's above: http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/1112#comment-6570.
I'll post here when the issue has been resolved.
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Could you try commenting out the line:
if (!ether.dhcpSetup()) dhcp_status = 0;
line 10 of the dhcp_dns tab
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
Commenting out that line has sorted it and it's updating emoncms again.
Thanks very much
Dennis
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
excellent, thats good to hear
Re: RESOLVED - Emonbase NanodeRF DHCP issues
That's working for me too.


Qatar University, Rosneft Research Centre to Develop Oil, Gas Technologies
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The Qatar University’s Engineering Department has signed an agreement with the International Research and Development Centre of the Russian energy company Rosneft on cooperation in research and technology development in the oil and gas industry.
"The agreement with Rosneft is in line with the university’s policy of developing cooperation with local and international organisations that specialise in Qatar’s priority sectors, such as gas research", Dean of the University’s Department of Engineering Khaled Kamal Naji said in a statement published on the faculty’s website.
He noted the need to invest in scientific and research programmes that play a significant role in supporting sustainable development projects.
As the director of the gas research centre Professor Muftah al-Na’as explained, the development of cooperation mentioned in the document provides for consultations in the oil and gas sector, as well as the development of research projects to familiarise them with international research centres, and the organisation of continuing education courses for people working in this industry.
Rosneft opened its main international research and development centre in Doha’s Science and Technology Park, in early 2018.

Never daunted by a steep learning curve, I am intellectually intrigued by technology, fazcinated with patterns and design, and intent on leaving things better than I found them. Whether in fiber arts, baking, or coding – I believe everything gets better if you document what works and calculate how to improve the next iteration.
I grew up a third-culture-kid. After graduating from the University of Texas, I stayed in Austin to be an administrative assistant by day - fiber artist and comic book geek by night. I was bitten by the coding bug while using HTML and CSS to create a website for my craft business. Dev Bootcamp helped me learn JavaScript, Ruby, and how to absorb a lot of information in a very short amount of time.
Most recently, I attended the Moms Can Code School to dust off my skills after taking some time to be at home. Never fully leaving the tech scene, I've supported Women Who Code Austin as an Event Lead for the past two years. I look forward to sharing my love of learning and patterns with future coworkers.

As mentioned in the Lua documentation, it is possible to pass an error handler function to lua_pcall(). Luabind makes use of lua_pcall() internally when calling member functions and free functions. It is possible to set the error handler function that Luabind will use globally:
typedef int(*pcall_callback_fun)(lua_State*);
void set_pcall_callback(pcall_callback_fun fn);
This is primarily useful for adding more information to the error message returned by a failed protected call. For more information on how to use the pcall_callback function, see errfunc under the pcall section of the lua manual.
For more information on how to retrieve debugging information from lua, see the debug section of the lua manual.
The message returned by the pcall_callback is accessable as the top lua value on the stack. For example, if you would like to access it as a luabind object, you could do like this:
catch(error& e)
{
object error_msg(from_stack(e.state(), -1));
std::cout << error_msg << std::endl;
}
If you want to add file name and line number to the error messages generated by luabind you can define your own pcall errorfunc. You may want to modify this callback to better suit your needs, but the basic functionality could be implemented like this:
int add_file_and_line(lua_State* L)
{
lua_Debug d;
lua_getstack(L, 1, &d);
lua_getinfo(L, "Sln", &d);
std::string err = lua_tostring(L, -1);
lua_pop(L, 1);
std::stringstream msg;
msg << d.short_src << ":" << d.currentline;
if (d.name != 0)
{
msg << "(" << d.namewhat << " " << d.name << ")";
}
msg << " " << err;
lua_pushstring(L, msg.str().c_str());
return 1;
}
For more information about what kind of information you can add to the error message, see the debug section of the lua manual.
Note that the callback set by set_pcall_callback() will only be used when luabind executes lua code. Anytime when you call lua_pcall yourself, you have to supply your function if you want error messages translated.
When lua encounters a fatal error caused by a bug from the C/C++ side, it will call its internal panic function. This can happen, for example, when you call lua_gettable on a value that isn’t a table. If you do the same thing from within lua, it will of course just fail with an error message.
The default panic function will exit() the application. If you want to handle this case without terminating your application, you can define your own panic function using lua_atpanic. The best way to continue from the panic function is to make sure lua is compiled as C++ and throw an exception from the panic function. Throwing an exception instead of using setjmp and longjmp will make sure the stack is correctly unwound.
When the panic function is called, the lua state is invalid, and the only allowed operation on it is to close it.
For more information, see the lua manual section 3.19.
Since lua is generally built as a C library, any callbacks called from lua cannot under any circumstance throw an exception. Because of that, luabind has to catch all exceptions and translate them into proper lua errors (by calling lua_error()). This means we have a catch(...) {} in there.
In Visual Studio, catch (...) will not only catch C++ exceptions, it will also catch structured exceptions, such as segmentation fault. This means that if your function, that gets called from luabind, makes an invalid memory adressing, you won’t notice it. All that will happen is that lua will return an error message saying “unknown exception”.
To remedy this, you can create your own exception translator:
void straight_to_debugger(unsigned int, _EXCEPTION_POINTERS*)
{ throw; }
#ifdef _MSC_VER
::_set_se_translator(straight_to_debugger);
#endif
This will make structured exceptions, like segmentation fault, to actually get caught by the debugger.
These are the error messages that can be generated by luabind, with a more in-depth explanation.
the attribute 'class-name.attribute-name' is read only
There is no data member named attribute-name in the class class-name, or there’s no setter-function registered on that property name. See the Properties section.
the attribute 'class-name.attribute-name' is of type: (class-name) and does not match (class_name)
This error is generated if you try to assign an attribute with a value of a type that cannot be converted to the attributes type.
class-name() threw an exception, class-name:function-name() threw an exception
The class’ constructor or member function threw an unknown exception. Known exceptions are const char*, std::exception. See the Exceptions section.
no overload of 'class-name:function-name' matched the arguments (parameter-types) no match for function call 'function-name' with the parameters (parameter-types) no constructor of class-name matched the arguments (parameter-types) no operator operator-name matched the arguments (parameter-types)
No function/operator with the given name takes the parameters you gave it. You have either misspelled the function name, or given it incorrect parameters. This error is followed by a list of possible candidate functions to help you figure out what parameter has the wrong type. If the candidate list is empty there’s no function at all with that name. See the signature matching section.
call of overloaded 'class-name:function-name*(*parameter-types)' is ambiguous ambiguous match for function call 'function-name' with the parameters (parameter-types) call of overloaded constructor 'class-name*(*parameter-types)' is ambiguous call of overloaded operator operator-name (parameter-types) is ambiguous
This means that the function/operator you are trying to call has at least one other overload that matches the arguments just as good as the first overload.
cannot derive from C++ class 'class-name'. It does not have a wrapped type.

Some one opened the door at the other end of the room, and Nancy felt that it was her husband. She turned from the window with gladness in her eyes, for the wife's chief dread was stilled.
"Dear, I'm so thankful you're come," she said, going towards him. "I began to get—"
She paused abruptly, for Godfrey was laying down his hat with trembling hands, and turned towards her with a pale face and a strange unanswering glance, as if he saw her indeed, but saw her as part of a scene invisible to herself. She laid her hand on his arm, not daring to speak again; but he left the touch unnoticed, and threw himself into his chair.
Jane was already at the door with the hissing urn. "Tell her to keep away, will you?" said Godfrey; and when the door was closed again he exerted himself to speak more distinctly.
"Sit down, Nancy—there," he said, pointing to a chair opposite him. "I came back as soon as I could, to hinder anybody's telling you but me. I've had a great shock—but I care most about the shock it'll be to you."
"It isn't father and Priscilla?" said Nancy, with quivering lips, clasping her hands together tightly on her lap.
"No, it's nobody living," said Godfrey, unequal to the considerate skill with which he would have wished to make his revelation. "It's Dunstan—my brother Dunstan, that we lost sight of sixteen years ago. We've found him—found his body—his skeleton."
The deep dread Godfrey's look had created in Nancy made her feel these words a relief. She sat in comparative calmness to hear what else he had to tell. He went on:
"The Stone–pit has gone dry suddenly—from the draining, I suppose; and there he lies—has lain for sixteen years, wedged between two great stones. There's his watch and seals, and there's my gold–handled hunting–whip, with my name on: he took it away, without my knowing, the day he went hunting on Wildfire, the last time he was seen."
Godfrey paused: it was not so easy to say what came next. "Do you think he drowned himself?" said Nancy, almost wondering that her husband should be so deeply shaken by what had happened all those years ago to an unloved brother, of whom worse things had been augured.
"No, he fell in," said Godfrey, in a low but distinct voice, as if he felt some deep meaning in the fact. Presently he added: "Dunstan was the man that robbed Silas Marner."
The blood rushed to Nancy's face and neck at this surprise and shame, for she had been bred up to regard even a distant kinship with crime as a dishonour.
"O Godfrey!" she said, with compassion in her tone, for she had immediately reflected that the dishonour must be felt still more keenly by her husband.
"There was the money in the pit," he continued—"all the weaver's money. Everything's been gathered up, and they're taking the skeleton to the Rainbow. But I came back to tell you: there was no hindering it; you must know."
He was silent, looking on the ground for two long minutes. Nancy would have said some words of comfort under this disgrace, but she refrained, from an instinctive sense that there was something behind—that Godfrey had something else to tell her. Presently he lifted his eyes to her face, and kept them fixed on her, as he said—
"Everything comes to light, Nancy, sooner or later. When God Almighty wills it, our secrets are found out. I've lived with a secret on my mind, but I'll keep it from you no longer. I wouldn't have you know it by somebody else, and not by me—I wouldn't have you find it out after I'm dead. I'll tell you now. It's been "I will" and "I won't" with me all my life—I'll make sure of myself now."
Nancy's utmost dread had returned. The eyes of the husband and wife met with awe in them, as at a crisis which suspended affection.
"Nancy," said Godfrey, slowly, "when I married you, I hid something from you—something I ought to have told you. That woman Marner found dead in the snow—Eppie's mother—that wretched woman—was my wife: Eppie is my child."
He paused, dreading the effect of his confession. But Nancy sat quite still, only that her eyes dropped and ceased to meet his. She was pale and quiet as a meditative statue, clasping her hands on her lap.
"You'll never think the same of me again," said Godfrey, after a little while, with some tremor in his voice.
She was silent.
"I oughtn't to have left the child unowned: I oughtn't to have kept it from you. But I couldn't bear to give you up, Nancy. I was led away into marrying her—I suffered for it."
Still Nancy was silent, looking down; and he almost expected that she would presently get up and say she would go to her father's. How could she have any mercy for faults that must seem so black to her, with her simple, severe notions?
But at last she lifted up her eyes to his again and spoke. There was no indignation in her voice—only deep regret.
"Godfrey, if you had but told me this six years ago, we could have done some of our duty by the child. Do you think I'd have refused to take her in, if I'd known she was yours?"
At that moment Godfrey felt all the bitterness of an error that was not simply futile, but had defeated its own end. He had not measured this wife with whom he had lived so long. But she spoke again, with more agitation.
"And—Oh, Godfrey—if we'd had her from the first, if you'd taken to her as you ought, she'd have loved me for her mother—and you'd have been happier with me: I could better have bore my little baby dying, and our life might have been more like what we used to think it 'ud be."
The tears fell, and Nancy ceased to speak.
"But you wouldn't have married me then, Nancy, if I'd told you," said Godfrey, urged, in the bitterness of his self–reproach, to prove to himself that his conduct had not been utter folly. "You may think you would now, but you wouldn't then. With your pride and your father's, you'd have hated having anything to do with me after the talk there'd have been."
"I can't say what I should have done about that, Godfrey. I should never have married anybody else. But I wasn't worth doing wrong for—nothing is in this world. Nothing is so good as it seems beforehand—not even our marrying wasn't, you see." There was a faint sad smile on Nancy's face as she said the last words.
"I'm a worse man than you thought I was, Nancy," said Godfrey, rather tremulously. "Can you forgive me ever?"
"The wrong to me is but little, Godfrey: you've made it up to me—you've been good to me for fifteen years. It's another you did the wrong to; and I doubt it can never be all made up for."
"But we can take Eppie now," said Godfrey. "I won't mind the world knowing at last. I'll be plain and open for the rest o' my life."
 "But it's your duty to acknowledge her and provide for her; and I'll do my part by her, and pray to God Almighty to make her love me."
"Then we'll go together to Silas Marner's this very night, as soon as everything's quiet at the Stone–pits."

This page describes all the artifacts, produced out of a build of Xcode library project with the xcode-maven-plugin.
<artifact-id>-<version>.pom
The project pom file as defined in the project. More information in Project Pom.
<artifact-id>-<version>-versions.xml
The file containing the reproducibility information of the project built and its (transitive) dependencies. More information in Version information.
<artifact-id>-<version>.tar
The main artifact is a tar file, which may contain additonal
information about the deployed artifacts.
By default the main
artifact contains only a
README.txt
.
In case the built library exposes additional bundle resources, the main artifact must contain a "bundles.txt" file. The bundles.txt file must contain for each exposed bundle resource the following information:
<group-id>:<artifact-id>:type:classifier1:<version>
<group-id>:<artifact-id>:type:classifier2:<version>
...
<artifact-id>-<version>-<classifier>.a
The library archive(s) as built from Xcode.
The default built configurations and sdks/platforms for library projects are Release/Debug and iphoneos/iphonesimulator, i.e. by default you see the following artifacts:
<artifact-id>-<version>-Release-iphoneos.a
<artifact-id>-<version>-Debug-iphoneos.a<artifact-id>-<version>-Release-iphonesimulator.a
<artifact-id>-<version>-Debug-iphonesimulator.a
<artifact-id>-<version>-<classifier>.headers.tar
The header files exposed as public headers into Copy Headers > Public Build Phase into Xcode.
The default built configurations and sdks/platforms for library projects are Release/Debug and iphoneos/iphonesimulator, i.e. if the library exposes public headers, by default you see the following artifacts:
<artifact-id>-<version>-Release-iphoneos.headers.tar
<artifact-id>-<version>-Debug-iphoneos.headers.tar<artifact-id>-<version>-Release-iphonesimulator.headers.tar
<artifact-id>-<version>-Debug-iphonesimulator.headers.tar
<artifact-id>-<version>-<classifier>-<type>.a
Fat binaries (combined iphoneos and iphonesimulator binaries) built with the lipo tool.
The
<type>
for these artifacts is set to
fat-binary
The default built configurations and sdks/platforms for
library projects are Release/Debug and iphoneos/iphonesimulator, i.e.
if the building of fat binaries is enabled for the project, you see
the following artifacts:
<artifact-id>-<version>-Debug-fat-binary.a
<artifact-id>-<version>-Release-fat-binary.a
More information how to enable fat binary generation in Generate Fat Binaries
<artifact-id>-<version>-<type>.zip
The zipped output of the generation of Doxygen documentation.
The <type> is set to DoxygenApiDoc .
More information how to enable generation of Doxygen Documentation in Generation of API Docs with Doxygen.
<artifact-id>-<version>-<classifier>.xcode-bundle-zip
The zipped exposed bundle resources out of a library project as
defined into the "Copy Bundle resources" Build Phase into Xcode.
The classifier is the escaped bundle name (the bundle name where the
file separators are replaced with ~).
If a library project defines a bundle resource with the same name as
the library itself, this bundle is treated as "default bundle".
In this case the classifier has the same name as the
artifact-id
.
<artifact-id>-<version>-<artifact-id>.xcode-bundle-zip

Magister Dieter:
This vision came to me from the key you gave me.
"You were being watched by the thieves before you even stole the scripture. Because it was so long ago I was not able to distinguish much about them.
There were 4 shadows. One of them was definitely a Dwarf, obvious from the short shadow. The other 3 were more difficult to distinguish. It was a moonless night.
I saw them open the box and steal the scripture shortly after you left it there. They left hurriedly, in a northerly direction."
I don't remember anything after this. I think there may be more secrets locked in my memory.
"Take your time and try to remember."


--- layout: post esbma_id: 1658 title: Trip Report: SD West 2007 date: 2007-03-26 15:38:01 ---
I am back home from last week's trip to SD West. This might have been the best trade show trip we've ever done. We had heavy booth traffic every day.
I normally dislike gimmicks like SWAG or prize drawings. They tend to attract people who aren't really interested in the company or its products, causing me to wonder which is worse:
Nonetheless, despite my usual aversion to booth giveaways, we distributed around 800 Evil Mastermind T-shirts last week. Wearing one of those shirts was a prerequisite for entry into the drawings for our bigger prizes, which included two Wiis, an Xbox 360, and a complete set of Calvin and Hobbes books. The goal of this whole thing was to get people to wear our shirts around the show, and it worked.
After reading Kathy Sierra's blog entry about T-shirts, I wanted to be sure we had the right size shirt for everybody. We brought every size from Small to XXXL. Unfortunately, we didn't get the distribution of sizes quite right. Here are the percentages we used:
|
S |
5% |
|
M |
14% |
|
L |
27% |
|
XL |
35% |
|
XXL |
14% |
|
XXXL |
5% |
This wasn't a horrible guess, and might have been just right if the event were in, say, Wisconsin. But out there in Silicon Valley where everybody is thin and beautiful, we ran out of Small and Medium shirts toward the end of the show. Also, we expected XL to be a little more popular than L, but we probably should have ordered equal amounts of each.
In our next order, we'll shift the distribution a bit toward the smaller sizes.
I've had quite a few people asking how they can get one of these shirts without going to SD West.
You can't "buy" these shirts with money, but the shirts are nonetheless not completely free. The people at SD West received a shirt and paid for it by wearing it around the conference. You can receive a shirt if you agree to provide "payment" using the following method:
Currently this is the only form of payment we can accept for an Evil Mastermind shirt.
If you want one of these shirts according to the terms above, send an email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with your shipping address and preferred shirt size (yes, we've got Small and Medium available now).
While supplies last. Offer limited to the United States and Canada. Offer void where prohibited, taxed or restricted. No purchase necessary. Shown with optional equipment. Financing requires credit approval. Not all buyers will qualify. Allow 4-6 weeks for delivery.
Without a doubt, the T-shirts and cool prizes attracted lots of people who were mostly just interested in the free stuff. However, we still talked to more genuine prospects than any show I can remember.
This was my first time at SD West, and I'm really glad we went. I always perceived this show as a great place to be for a company selling source control tools, as long as those tools are not Windows-only. I was glad to see 7 version control vendors on the expo floor (AccuRev, Microsoft, Perforce, Seapine, SourceForge, SourceGear , and Telelogic).
My book didn't do so well at the Jolt Awards, but the quality of my competition was exceedingly high. The main winner in my category was
In addition to the Jolt winner, they recognize 3 more entries in each category with a "Productivity Award" (which is basically an alternate spelling for "Honorable Mention"). The Productivity Award winners were:
Finally, since there were 7 finalists in this category, there were three other books comprising the "non-winners":
I would love to have won, but I remind myself it was an honor to be among the finalists at all. So, and with a nod toward one of my favorite quotes from the Simpsons:
In one sense, we're all winners, but in another far more accurate sense, Alistair Cockburn is the winner. :-)
