Step 1. Identify the immediate (short-term) strategy aimed at providing a minimum or basic level of service to contain or minimise the impact of the disruption until a more sustainable level of service can be provided.
What is required to provide this service?
How can we provide this immediately (without the system)?
Step 2. Determine how long this strategy can be maintained.
How long can we continue this before the impact is intolerable?
Step 3. Identify the sustainable strategy aimed at providing a higher level of service that can be continued beyond the immediate continuity strategy
What is required to provide this in addition to the immediate strategy?
How do we procure the required resources?
What processes do we need to put in place?
Step 4. Determine how long this strategy can be maintained.
How long can we practicably continue this strategy?
How long can we continue this before the impact is intolerable?

Tesla Cybertruck pickup: ultra hard stainless steel, 0-60 in 2.9 secs, 14k lbs towing capacity, and $40k base price
by Simon AlvarezTesla has revealed its highly-anticipated pickup truck to the public, and it is every bit the monster that CEO Elon Musk has made it out to be. With its aggressive stance, high ground clearance, and massive frame, the Tesla’s CYBRTRK is quite a sight to behold. It also shows that while Tesla has pretty much created stunning city cars until today, the company is every bit as capable of creating a daunting machine that can perform just as well on paved roads as it does on rough terrain.
Design
The Tesla Cybertruck does not look like a traditional pickup. True to Elon Musk’s words, the vehicle does look like a futuristic armored personnel carrier that stepped out of the set of Blade Runner. Its straight sloping roof give the pickup a streamlined yet very unique look. As the Tesla CEO has stated in the past, the Cybertruck won’t look like any other pickup on the road today.
That being said, there are several key design aspects that are notable about the Cybertruck. These include its extremely angular body, its large bed, and its high ground clearance. The Cybertruck also has a thick stainless steel body, which Tesla demonstrated by having a sledgehammer hit the pickup’s door panel. The vehicle is also fitted with Tesla’s Armor Glass, which unfortunately cracked after a large steel ball was thrown at it onstage. The metal ball didn’t go through the glass though, which is a plus.
Specs
Tesla has pretty much mastered the art of keeping the specs of its upcoming vehicles’ secret. As it turns out, the Cybertruck’s performance figures are definitely worth the secrecy, as they are flat-out insane. The vehicle is equipped with a standard single motor and can be upgraded to dual and tri-motors. Just as Musk said, the Cybertruck, despite its size, is quite nimble, thanks to its instant torque and adaptive air suspension that can adjust height to meet the vehicle’s intended purpose. These ultimately allow the Cybertruck to hit 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds, with handling comparable to a Porsche.
Here are other notable specs of the Tesla Cybertruck:
- 250+, 300+, and 500+ miles of range
- 3500 lbs payload
- Towing rating between 7.5k to 14k lbs
- 250 kW charging
- Off-road performance with 35 degrees approach angle, up to 16″ clearance, and 28 degrees departure angle
- 100 cubic feet of exterior storage
Special Features
Pickups are utility vehicles by nature, and as such, they are used primarily for work on locations such as farms or construction sites. Luxury pickups exist that prioritize comfort over utility, but Tesla’s monster pickup has chosen to do both. The interior of the Cybertruck is classic Tesla in the way that it’s minimalist and airy, with plush seats and a massive touchscreen that’s optimized for work and even entertainment. This, however, is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the pickup truck’s notable features. Others include:
- 110v/220v onboard outlets
- Full Self-Driving features
- Autopilot as standard
Price
Earlier this year, Elon Musk has mentioned that the Tesla Cybertruck would start at $49,000 at the highest. Tesla has stayed true to its CEO’s words, pricing the futuristic pickup truck very aggressively compared to other EV trucks and ICE-powered luxury pickups. Tesla’s Cybertruck does have a number of higher-priced trims, and these cost substantially more, while offering significantly more.
Here’s the complete pricing of Tesla’s Cybertruck depending on its trim.
- Single Motor RWD – $39,900 before options
- Dual Motor AWD – $49,900 before options
- Tri-Motor AWD – $69,900 before options


I made a video guide showing you how to install the mod for people who prefer videos over text youtube link
First install the four dependencies for the mod:
As of July 2021, nexusmods is no longer used for my mods. Updates will continue to be hosted on Github in order to retain full control over my projects and IP. That means you will have to download the recent versions on Github, an entirely free website for you that is also ad-free, respects your privacy and doesn't put any non-premium restrictions.
Then take the latest release from Github and drop its content (not the directory itself, the three sub-directories bin/mods/dlc) in your The Witcher 3 directory
Merge the changes introduced by the Shared Utils
Add the following line of code into The Witcher 3\Mods\modBootstrap-registry\content\scripts\local\mods_registry.ws
add(modCreate_RandomEncountersReworked());so the file looks like this :
// ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- class CModRegistry extends CModFactory { protected function createMods() { // add mod creation calls here, like this: // // add(modCreate_()); // ... // see example dir //add(modCreate_ExampleMod()); //add(modCreate_ExampleEntityMod()); //add(modCreate_UiExampleMod()); add(modCreate_RandomEncountersReworked()); // <-- you added this line } } // ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- // ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Start the game, let it compile the new scripts and open the new mod menu to configure the mod as you want (it needs a loading screen to update the values).
Done.
If you have ideas about features, or you encountered a bug and want it fixed (or even better you fixed it) head to the github repository and create an issue i appreciate any feedback 👍

The Iowa Blue is an American breed that was developed in the early 1900's near Decorah, Iowa by John Logsdon. The original stock came in a unique form of the silver penciled pattern that made the hens appear to be a blue-grey color from a distance, hence the name. It was available through the 1960’s from several hatcheries, but it lost popularity and was nearly extinct before several dedicated breeders began efforts to preserve the remaining flocks in the 1980’s. It is currently undergoing a re-surge in popularity. The Iowa Blue breed club is currently working on fulfilling the requirements for APA recognition, they anticipate meeting the requirements by 2017.
The Iowa Blue is a dual-purpose bird, exceptional foragers with good predator awareness, and the roosters are good flock protectors especially against hawks. The hens are good layers, will go broody and are good mothers. They are an excellent breed for the homesteader and are becoming more popular with the backyard flock owner looking for a friendly productive brown egg layer.
A number of different breeds have gone into its make up, originally including Black Minorca, Rhode Island Red, White Rocks, and legend has it, a pheasant cock was used to produce the original stock.
It is currently found in four colors, Silver, Charcoal, Smoky and Birchen. They are single combed with medium sized comb and wattles. They are quite weather hardy, tolerating both heat and cold.

Scanifly is dedicated to making solar site assessments safe, accurate, and efficient.
The Scanifly Team has experienced the typical solar site assessment first hand. Why get on top of a roof with a measuring tape and a shade analysis tool when you can use a drone to collect all of your data. After all, some of us are scared of heights anyway.. Scanifly's technology makes it possible to collect solar site assessment data without ever putting boots on the roof!
Capturing a solar access viewshed with a fish-eye lens, while physically on the roof, is now a thing of the past. At Scanifly, we provide a solar access shade report that is comparable to the current industry standard. We can even remove a tree from the 3D model and re-process the shade analysis before the customer commits to removing the tree.
No longer does a site assessor need to draw dimensions on paper while on the roof. Scanify is taking the guess work out of reading those (sometimes illegible) handwritten roof dimensions. We provide you with an already to scale dwg file so you do not waste time drawing roof planes and elevations.
Our experience, passion and all-nighters have allowed us to create a product for the solar industry that is truly remarkable. We are excited to bring this product to you, and help make a dent in the solar universe.
Want to join our Team? We are looking for talented, passionate people! Send us your cover letter & resume to: havefun@scanifly.com.


THE NEWTON BOYS A film review by Matt Williams
RATING: * * 1/2* out of * * * *
Richard Linklater, notorious for his modern day Generation X films, strikes off in new territory in The Newton Boys, a period drama detailing the true-life exploits of the most successful gang of bank robbers in United States history.
The mastermind behind the robberies is Willis Newton (Matthew McConaughey) who, after being wrongly imprisoned, decides to take a little back from the system. He teams up with an explosives expert, Brentwood Glasscock (Dwight Yoakam), and together they plan to rob square-door bank safes up and down the country.
To help them out, Willis enlists his brothers. There's Jess (Ethan Hawke), the cowboy of the bunch who lives for the moment. Joe (Skeet Ulrich) is the youngest Newton, and the one with the largest moral dilemma. Finally, there's Dock (Vincent D'Onofrio), the eldest, and most stubborn of the family Newton.
Together, they blaze a trail throughout the Midwest in the early 1920s (and even to Canada at one point). They never aim to hurt anyone...they just want the money. Along the way, Willis discovers one more thing he wants: Louise Brown (Julianna Margulies), whom he woos by pretending he's a wildcatting oilman.
The Newton Boys takes a cavalier attitude toward its subject, painting the bank robbers as modern day Robin Hoods, who, since they were poor, robbed the rich and gave to themselves. The film is more about their attitude than about their crimes, or even their personalities. Aside from the well-done period detail, there's not much we learn from The Newton Boys.
The lead characters are all genial in their roles. They're likable, but not outstanding. They're not bad here, but they've all done better work.
Perhaps the problems that fail to give the movie any lasting weight are the same that have allowed the exploits of the Newton boys to fade from popular knowledge. Sure, they set a record, but other than that, there's very little there: no lurid tabloid details that stick in the mind, or lasting personalities to haunt us.
The best I can claim about The Newton Boys movie is that it is diverting. It is an anecdote of a movie that will pass the time, but won't linger on your mind.

\[y_n(\pmb{z}) = y_n^0 + \sum\limits_{j\in\mathcal{J}^n} y_{nj}^z z_j, ~~~~n=1, 2, ..., N.\]where \(\mathcal{J}^n\) is a subset of all random variables that the decision rule \(y_n(\pmb{z})\) adapts to. The formulation above suggests that we are minimizing (or maximizing) the objective function under the worst-case realization of the uncertainty set \(\mathcal{Z}_0\), subject to constraints under the worst case over uncertainty sets \(\mathcal{Z}_m\), \(m= 1, 2, …, M\).
The RSOME package provides rich algebraic tools for specifying random variables arrays, uncertainty sets, the worst-case objective and constraints of the robust model, which will be introduced in the subsequent sections.
Random variables of a robust optimization model can be defined by the method rvar()
of the model object.
rvar(shape=(1,), name=None) method of rsome.ro.Model instance
Returns an array of random variables with the given shape.
Parameters
----------
shape : int or tuple
Shape of the variable array.
name : str
Name of the variable array
Returns
-------
new_var : rsome.lp.Vars
An array of new random variables
Similar to decision variables, random variables are also formulated as arrays, and all array operations and functions aforementioned, including operations between decision and random variables, could be applied.
from rsome import ro
model = ro.Model() # Create a model object
x = model.dvar((1, 5)) # A 1x5 array of decision varaibles
y = model.dvar((2, 1)) # A 2x1 array of decision variables
z = model.rvar((2, 5)) # A 2x5 array of random variables
model.st(x * z <= 2) # Multiplication with broadcasting
model.st(y.T@z - x <= 5) # Matrix multiplication
The uncertainty set \(\mathcal{Z}_0\) for the objective function can be specified by the method minmax()
and maxmin()
. Take the following uncertainty set \(\mathcal{Z}_0\) for example,
it is used to define the worst-case objective functions, which can be written as the following code.
from rsome import ro
import rsome as rso
import numpy as np
model = ro.Model()
x = model.dvar((2, 5))
z = model.rvar((1, 5))
# Define uncertainty set Z0 as a tuple
z_set0 = (rso.norm(z, np.inf) <= 1,
rso.norm(z, 1) <= 1.5)
# Minimize the worst-case objective over the uncertainty set Z0
model.minmax((x*z).sum(), z_set0)
# Maximize the worst-case objective over an uncertainty defined by two constraints
model.maxmin((x*z).sum(),
rso.norm(z, np.inf) <= 1,
rso.norm(z, 2) <= 1.25)
In the functions minmax()
and maxmin()
, the first argument is the objective function, and all the remaining arguments are used to specify the constraints of the uncertainty set \(\mathcal{Z}_0\). Constraints of the uncertainty set can be provided in an iterable data object, such as a tuple
or list
. Alternatively, these constraints can be given as other arguments of the minmax()
or maxmin()
methods, as shown by the examples above.
For constraints of the robust model, uncertainty sets can be specified by the forall()
method of constraints involving random variables, as shown by the following example.
# Define uncertainty set Z1 as a tuple
z_set1 = (rso.norm(z, np.inf) <= 1.5,
rso.norm(z, 1) <= 2)
# The constraints over the uncertainty set Z1
model.st((x*z + z >= 0).forall(z_set1))
Please note that if the uncertainty set of a robust constraint is not defined, then by default, its uncertainty set is \(\mathcal{Z}_0\), defined by the minmax()
or maxmin()
methods for the objective. The code below demonstrates a case where one uncertainty set \(\mathcal{Z}_0\) applies to the objective function and all constraints.
from rsome import ro
import rsome as rso
model = ro.Model()
x = model.dvar((2, 5))
z = model.rvar((1, 5))
# Define uncertainty set Z0 as a tuple
z_set0 = (rso.norm(z, np.inf) <= 1,
rso.norm(z, 1) <= 1.5)
# Define objective function and the uncertainty set
model.minmax((x*z).sum(), z_set0)
# The uncertainty set Z0 applies to all constraints below
model.st(x*z + z >= 0)
model.st(x*z + x >= 0)
model.st(x >= z)
It can be seen that uncertainty sets of the robust model can be flexibly specified. More application examples are presented in the next section.
The rsome.ro
modeling environment also supports linear decision rules for non-anticipative decision-making. A linear decision rule object can be created by the ldr()
method of an ro
model. Details of the method are provided below.
ldr(shape=(1,), name=None) method of rsome.ro.Model instance
Returns an array with the given shape of linear decision rule
variables.
Parameters
----------
shape : int or tuple
Shape of the variable array.
name : str
Name of the variable array
Returns
-------
new_var : rsome.ro.DecRule
An array of new linear decision rule variables
Decision rules are also defined as arrays, as shown by the following examples.
from rsome import ro
model = ro.Model()
x = model.ldr((2, 4)) # Decision rule variable array x
y = model.ldr((3, 5)) # Decision rule variable array y
print(x)
print(y)
2x4 decision rule variables
3x5 decision rule variables
As mentioned in previous sections, the decision rule \(y_n(\pmb{z})\) may affinely depend on a subset \(\mathcal{J}^n\) of random variables, and such a subset can be specified by the adapt()
, as shown by the following code segment.
z = model.rvar((2, 4)) # Random variable array z
u = model.rvar(5) # Random variable array u
x.adapt(z) # All elements of x depends on all z elements
y[2, 3:].adapt(z[0, 1]) # y[2, 3:] depends on z[0, 1]
y[1, 3:].adapt(u[3:]) # y[1, 3:] depends on u[3:]
Once the decision rules are created and the affine dependency on random variables is specified, the aforementioned array operations and syntax can be applied to decision rule arrays in constructing constraints involving adaptive decisions. The affine dependency must be specified before using decision rule variables in constraints, otherwise an error message will be given.
Please also note that RSOME does not allow redefinition of the same affine dependency relation, such as the following code segment
y[2, 3:].adapt(z[0, 1]) # y[2, 3:] depends on z[0, 1]
y[:3, :].adapt(z[0]) # y[:3, :] depends on z[0]
would give an error message because the affine dependency of decision rules y[2, 3:]
on the random variable z[0]
is defined twice.

1 Quick question, is there a way to move the hover to somewhere other than the upper left? It covers up the ticket count on my battlemap. I can't seem to find any settings for that.

Menu can't be moved, but you can set it to open on click (at the bottom of the menu "BBLog Menu opens with a click")

I saw the "open with click" but that's not really the issue.
I guess I just need to buy a bigger second monitor!!!

Frankly, Brain could move the button a little lower. Even on the main page its overlaping the menu stripe, which doesen't look very nice.

U can modify the CSS on demand. (CSS= style e.x. color, height, margin, padding etc)
this will move it 10px on every click of the bookmark
Bookmark it how? I've tried to paste that into the address bar and create a bookmark and it doesn't work. I created a manual bookmark using the second code and when I click on it all I get is "object object" and nothing changes when I go back to BBL.

NavigationStackModel
public class NavigationStackModel<IdentifierType> : ObservableObject where IdentifierType : Equatable
extension NavigationStackModel: CustomDebugStringConvertible
The underlying NavigationStackView
‘s model which can be manipulated to apply the navigation transitions.
This class is generic to provide the possibility to use a different type as identifier.
However, normally you want to bound the identifier’s type simply to a string.
For this you can also just use NavigationModel
.
An instance of this model has to be injected into the view hierarchy as an environment object:
MyRootView().environmentObject(NavigationModel())
Even when using multiple navigation stack views in a view hierarchy there has to be always only one instance of NavigationModel
.
The model can be used with identifiers to target specific navigation stack views.
-
Initializes the model.
Declaration
Swift
public init(silenceErrors: Bool = false)
Parameters
silenceErrors
When set to true each error will be silently ignored, when false each error will result in an exception thrown. Defaults to false.
-
Flag used to determine if errors are thrown or silently ignored.
Declaration
Swift
public let silenceErrors: Bool
-
Performs the navigation by showing a new view.
This is typically used to navigate to a new view.
Warning
It’s not possible to navigate to a new view while a navigation for the same stack view is already active, i.e. tying to push View3 on View1 when there is already View2 pushed on View1 will result in an error.
Declaration
Swift
public func showView<Content: View>( _ identifier: IdentifierType, animation: NavigationAnimation? = nil, @ViewBuilder alternativeView: @escaping () -> Content )
Parameters
identifier
The navigation stack view’s identifier targeting by this navigation. The provided ID will be used to determine which navigation stack view should replace its view with the provided one.
animation
The transition animation to apply.
alternativeView
The new view which should replace the navigation stack view’s default view.
-
Navigates back to the previews view by using its reverse animation. This is typically used to execute a back navigation.
Declaration
Swift
public func hideTopViewWithReverseAnimation()
-
Navigates back to the previous view by using a provided a specific transition animation. This is typically used to navigate back, but with a specific animation which might not be known in advance.
Declaration
Swift
public func hideTopView(animation: NavigationAnimation? = nil)
Parameters
animation
The transition animation to use for this navigation. When nil is passed then no animation will be used.
-
Navigates back to a specific navigation stack view somewhere in the stack. This is typically used to navigate back multiple views.
Declaration
Swift
public func hideView(_ identifier: IdentifierType, animation: NavigationAnimation? = nil)
Parameters
identifier
The navigation stack view’s identifier targeting by this navigation. The provided ID will be used to determine which navigation stack view should switch back to its default view.
animation
The transition animation to use during this transition. When nil is passed then no animation will be used.
-
Navigates back to a specific navigation stack view somewhere in the stack by using its reverse animation. This is typically used to execute a back navigation to a view farther down the stack, e.g. back to the root.
Declaration
Swift
public func hideViewWithReverseAnimation(_ identifier: IdentifierType)
Parameters
identifier
The navigation stack view’s identifier targeting by this navigation. The provided ID will be used to determine which navigation stack view should switch back to its default view.
-
Returns whether there is a navigation view on the stack or not, meaning is it possible to navigate back or not.
True when it’s safe to navigate back, otherwise false.
Warning
Using this method to show different views or sub-views without freezing the result in alet
variable will result in animation glitches!Declaration
Swift
public var hasAlternativeViewShowing: Bool { get }
-
Returns whether there is a navigation view with a specific ID on the stack or not, meaning is it possible to navigate to the navigation stack view or not.
Warning
Using this method to show different views or sub-views without freezing the result in a
let
variable will result in animation glitches!Declaration
Swift
public func isAlternativeViewShowing(_ identifier: IdentifierType) -> Bool
Parameters
identifier
The navigation stack view’s identifier to query for its existence in the stack.
Return Value
True when it’s safe to navigate to the ID, otherwise false.

I went to the March For Our Lives today in Redwood City. It was so wonderful to be among people united in hope for positive change. It’s so hard to face the news these days, it’s nice to see something Good. Votes are supposed to count more than cash.


The content you see here is displayed in a div. It was initially loaded into a hidden iframe. A function called onload of the iframe copied the content from iframe to div.
Since the body content of the iframed document is incorporated into the current document by the code used here, styles used by the current document are applied and regular links replace the current document. This emulates the new seamless
iframe attribute that is not yet supported by browsers.
Since the div's height is not set in this example, it shrinks and expands according to the amount of content in the document loaded into the iframe so the regular window scrollbars are used rather than iframe scrollbars.
Another option for avoiding iframe scrollbars sets iframe height to display its full content.


Miscellaneous markup¶
File-wide metadata¶
reST has the concept of “field lists”; these are a sequence of fields marked up like this:
:fieldname: Field content
A field list near the top of a file is parsed by docutils as the “docinfo” which is normally used to record the author, date of publication and other metadata. In Sphinx, a field list preceding any other markup is moved from the docinfo to the Sphinx environment as document metadata and is not displayed in the output; a field list appearing after the document title will be part of the docinfo as normal and will be displayed in the output.
At the moment, these metadata fields are recognized:
tocdepth
The maximum depth for a table of contents of this file.
New in version 0.4.
nocomments
- If set, the web application won’t display a comment form for a page generated from this source file.
orphan
If set, warnings about this file not being included in any toctree will be suppressed.
New in version 1.0.
Meta-information markup¶
Identifies the author of the current section. The argument should include the author’s name such that it can be used for presentation and email address. The domain name portion of the address should be lower case. Example:
.. sectionauthor:: Guido van Rossum<EMAIL_ADDRESS>By default, this markup isn’t reflected in the output in any way (it helps keep track of contributions), but you can set the configuration value :confval:`show_authors` to
True
to make them produce a paragraph in the output.
The
codeauthor
directive, which can appear multiple times, names the authors of the described code, just likesectionauthor
names the author(s) of a piece of documentation. It too only produces output if the :confval:`show_authors` configuration value isTrue
.
Index-generating markup¶
Sphinx automatically creates index entries from all object descriptions (like functions, classes or attributes) like discussed in Sphinx Domains.
However, there is also explicit markup available, to make the index more comprehensive and enable index entries in documents where information is not mainly contained in information units, such as the language reference.
-
.. index::
<entries>
¶ This directive contains one or more index entries. Each entry consists of a type and a value, separated by a colon.
For example:
.. index:: single: execution; context module: __main__ module: sys triple: module; search; path The execution context --------------------- ...
This directive contains five entries, which will be converted to entries in the generated index which link to the exact location of the index statement (or, in case of offline media, the corresponding page number).
Since index directives generate cross-reference targets at their location in the source, it makes sense to put them before the thing they refer to – e.g. a heading, as in the example above.
The possible entry types are:
- single
- Creates a single index entry. Can be made a subentry by separating the subentry text with a semicolon (this notation is also used below to describe what entries are created).
- pair
pair: loop; statement
is a shortcut that creates two index entries, namelyloop; statement
andstatement; loop
.- triple
- Likewise,
triple: module; search; path
is a shortcut that creates three index entries, which aremodule; search path
,search; path, module
andpath; module search
. - see
see: entry; other
creates an index entry that refers fromentry
toother
.- seealso
- Like
see
, but inserts “see also” instead of “see”. - module, keyword, operator, object, exception, statement, builtin
- These all create two index entries. For example,
module: hashlib
creates the entriesmodule; hashlib
andhashlib; module
. (These are Python-specific and therefore deprecated.)
You can mark up “main” index entries by prefixing them with an exclamation mark. The references to “main” entries are emphasized in the generated index. For example, if two pages contain
.. index:: Python
and one page contains
.. index:: ! Python
then the backlink to the latter page is emphasized among the three backlinks.
For index directives containing only “single” entries, there is a shorthand notation:
.. index:: BNF, grammar, syntax, notation
This creates four index entries.
Changed in version 1.1: Added
see
andseealso
types, as well as marking main entries.
-
:index:
¶ While the
index
directive is a block-level markup and links to the beginning of the next paragraph, there is also a corresponding role that sets the link target directly where it is used.The content of the role can be a simple phrase, which is then kept in the text and used as an index entry. It can also be a combination of text and index entry, styled like with explicit targets of cross-references. In that case, the “target” part can be a full entry as described for the directive above. For example:
This is a normal reST :index:`paragraph` that contains several :index:`index entries <pair: index; entry>`.
New in version 1.1.
Including content based on tags¶
-
.. only::
<expression>
¶ Include the content of the directive only if the expression is true. The expression should consist of tags, like this:
.. only:: html and draft
Undefined tags are false, defined tags (via the
-t
command-line option or withinconf.py
, see here) are true. Boolean expressions, also using parentheses (likehtml and (latex or draft)
) are supported.The format and the name of the current builder (
html
,latex
ortext
) are always set as a tag [1]. To make the distinction between format and name explicit, they are also added with the prefixformat_
andbuilder_
, e.g. the epub builder defines the tagshtml
,epub
,format_html
andbuilder_epub
.These standard tags are set after the configuration file is read, so they are not available there.
All tags must follow the standard Python identifier syntax as set out in the Identifiers and keywords documentation. That is, a tag expression may only consist of tags that conform to the syntax of Python variables. In ASCII, this consists of the uppercase and lowercase letters
A
throughZ
, the underscore_
and, except for the first character, the digits0
through9
.New in version 0.6.
Changed in version 1.2: Added the name of the builder and the prefixes.
Warning
This directive is designed to control only content of document. It could not control sections, labels and so on.
Tables¶
Use standard reStructuredText tables. They work fine in HTML output, however there are some gotchas when using tables in LaTeX: the column width is hard to determine correctly automatically. For this reason, the following directive exists:
-
.. tabularcolumns::
column spec
¶ This directive gives a “column spec” for the next table occurring in the source file. The spec is the second argument to the LaTeX
tabulary
package’s environment (which Sphinx uses to translate tables). It can have values like|l|l|l|
which means three left-adjusted, nonbreaking columns. For columns with longer text that should automatically be broken, use either the standard
p{width}
construct, or tabulary’s automatic specifiers:L
flush left column with automatic width R
flush right column with automatic width C
centered column with automatic width J
justified column with automatic width The automatic widths of the
LRCJ
columns are attributed bytabulary
in proportion to the observed shares in a first pass where the table cells are rendered at their natural “horizontal” widths.By default, Sphinx uses a table layout with
J
for every column.New in version 0.3.
Changed in version 1.6: Merged cells may now contain multiple paragraphs and are much better handled, thanks to custom Sphinx LaTeX macros. This novel situation motivated the switch to
J
specifier and notL
by default.Hint
Sphinx actually uses
T
specifier having done\newcolumntype{T}{J}
. To revert to previous default, insert\newcolumntype{T}{L}
in the LaTeX preamble (see :confval:`latex_elements`).A frequent issue with tabulary is that columns with little contents are “squeezed”. The minimal column width is a tabulary parameter called
\tymin
. You may set it globally in the LaTeX preamble via\setlength{\tymin}{40pt}
for example.Else, use the
tabularcolumns
directive with an explicitp{40pt}
(for example) for that column. You may use alsol
specifier but this makes the task of setting column widths more difficult if some merged cell intersects that column.Warning
Tables with more than 30 rows are rendered using
longtable
, nottabulary
, in order to allow pagebreaks. TheL
,R
, … specifiers do not work for these tables.Tables that contain list-like elements such as object descriptions, blockquotes or any kind of lists cannot be set out of the box with
tabulary
. They are therefore set with the standard LaTeXtabular
(orlongtable
) environment if you don’t give atabularcolumns
directive. If you do, the table will be set withtabulary
but you must use thep{width}
construct (or Sphinx’s\X
and\Y
specifiers described below) for the columns containing these elements.Literal blocks do not work with
tabulary
at all, so tables containing a literal block are always set withtabular
. The verbatim environment used for literal blocks only works inp{width}
(and\X
or\Y
) columns, hence Sphinx generates such column specs for tables containing literal blocks.Since Sphinx 1.5, the
\X{a}{b}
specifier is used (there is a backslash in the specifier letter). It is likep{width}
with the width set to a fractiona/b
of the current line width. You can use it in thetabularcolumns
(it is not a problem if some LaTeX macro is also called\X
.)It is not needed for
b
to be the total number of columns, nor for the sum of the fractions of the\X
specifiers to add up to one. For example|\X{2}{5}|\X{1}{5}|\X{1}{5}|
is legitimate and the table will occupy 80% of the line width, the first of its three columns having the same width as the sum of the next two.This is used by the
:widths:
option of the :dudir:`table` directive.Since Sphinx 1.6, there is also the
\Y{f}
specifier which admits a decimal argument, such has\Y{0.15}
: this would have the same effect as\X{3}{20}
.Changed in version 1.6: Merged cells from complex grid tables (either multi-row, multi-column, or both) now allow blockquotes, lists, literal blocks, … as do regular cells.
Sphinx’s merged cells interact well with
p{width}
,\X{a}{b}
,Y{f}
and tabulary’s columns.

Nothing To Lose
The story is far-fetched; the overly-friendly relations between our white hero and a black family are somewhat heavy-handed. The explanation involving the wife's infidelity is quite a stretch, and the ending should have come sooner; no need to dot every "i" and cross every "t." Despite those caveats, I enjoyed almost every moment. It was a feel-good movie.
Nick (Tim Robbins) is an advertising executive who comes home early one day and discovers his wife (Kelly Preston) in bed with his boss. Nick flies out of the house and furiously drives away unmindful of traffic. His life is ruined; he has NOTHING TO LOSE.
A carjacker, T Paul (Martin Lawrence) pulls a gun on him when Nick stops at a traffic light but Nick, crazy with grief and NOTHING TO LOSE, not only takes a swipe at T Paul but gets him into the car and drives away with him. T Paul explains that he is an educated person who cannot find a job.  Before very long, they become friends. With NOTHING TO LOSE, Nick and T Paul set out to rob Nick's boss for having slept with Nick's wife.
Unfortunately for Nick and T Paul, they are being followed by another couple of gangsters, who like them, one is black and the other white. (Giancarlo Esposito and John C McGinley) Neither Nick and T Paul nor the cops on their trail are aware that there are 2 sets of black and white suspects.
When T Paul goes home to his family with Nick, T Paul's mother slaps them around; her son for staying out late and Nick for probably being a bad influence. In the end, of course, everything turns out fine . . . by use of two unoriginal bits of mistaken identity to make the plot work. Still, quite funny. and entertaining.

[Erowid Note: 700 mgs of Amitriptyline is considered an extremely high dose]
Ok. I will first start this off by saying I take amitriptyline for depression. 150mg a night. Usually it wires me for about 2-3 hours before crashing me into sleep. When I first started taking this medicine I would fall asleep with cigarettes burning in my hand, and still have the blanket with 8-10 burn holes as evidence. Every once in a while when I have no weed but am still looking to get high I take 250-400mg to give me an incredible high before the most extreme drowsiness I have ever known.
About 4 months ago, I fell in love with a friend of 2 years. It led to a relationship that lasted about 3 months. I quit my job because I was working for my father in the basement waterproofing business. I had no life, driving 4 hours to work, working 12 hour shifts, and then driving 4 hours back. Or staying out of state for a whole week. well when I quit my job, we had a low grade fight, and then she did not call for for a whole week. After years of experience with drug overdoses I have become prone to anxiety and paranoia. This whole week was the pits.
The night before she finally called me to end things, I was so disgusted with my life and myself and the fact that the only being that has ever trully understood me, the only being I have ever, felt TRUE love for up to the present, a cat that I had named darkside, and he was my life, had recently been killed by a fischer cat because someone let him outside at night while I was out of state on a job for a week, that I tried to commit suicide.
I have tried several times, with zoloft, paxil, vicodin, percoset, and morphine. All major overdoses, paxil being the worst at 360mg a whack at a recommended dose of 10mg a day. The only thing that happened was a short vomiting stint. Over the years I have come to think of myself as invincible when it comes to drugs.  I was always dissapointed.
I was downstairs talking to my roomate about 3 hours after I took the 700mg of amitriptyline, when I promptly told her I was going upstairs to hallucinate before falling asleep, as I sometimes get mild hallucinations while overdosing on my meds. I woke up 15 hours later, in a scorching sweat, shaking like a jackhammer, opened my eyes to see my roomate sitting on my bed next to me.
She began to tell me that about an hour after I fell asleep, she heard slamming sounds coming from upstairs so came up to see what it was all about. When she got upstairs, she saw that I had knocked her birdcage over, had my playstation two in my hands, banging it against the sink, yelling that I had to return my window to the muffins. I then picked up my cat and tried to throw him out the back door, which used to be my porch but my landlord thought he would be smart and tore it down and dug a 10 foot deep pit because he was *going to build an addition* a 25 foot drop that one of my cats had recently decided to take a trip out on her own when the door was open for ventilation and broke her jaw.
She then told me that I started knocking my stereo speakers over, I tried to get out while the door was closed, banging my head off of it about 3 or 4 times before she got ahold of me, as the knots on my forehead had evidenced. She then tried to get me to lay down, all the while I was spitting at her and calling her derrogatory names.  I was gnawing at myself, and started talking jibberish, about how I had to go pick her and my friend trish up. I walked into some more walls, and throwing pill bottles around.
 Thankfully I had told her recently that if I ever OD'ed, to not call the paramedics because I had no health care insurance and no job to pay for the massive hospital and psychiatrist bills that would result.  And that is saying alot, because I am Wiccan and I do not believe in harming anyone. Unless it is myself in a depressive chasm.
I took a 3 month hiatus from my meds to clear my mind and system, have since totally rennovated my life, making major changes, and restarted taking my meds at the dose I am supposed too. I have gotten a job at a creamery, and have quit all drugs, weed, opiates, and alcohol. I'm a total straight-edge now except for the anti-depressants I'm prescribed. And have found true hapiness in hard work and sobriety. I have also begun intensive self-therapy to hash out the multitude of psychological problems that I know I have that my decade of drug abuse has led to.

When Thoreau came inside after swimming naked in the pond, and capturing a frog for dinner, he was surprised to see more than 100 comments on his Facebook posting. “Fried rat!,” said one comment, “you better get yourself to a doctor now. You will have parasites and worms in the morning.” There were more than 20 comments from animal lovers horrified that he had eaten a cat, and there were warnings about berries, queries about the mushrooms, and questions from environmentalists about whether he had eliminated in the woods, properly disposed of the carcass. He was cautioned about drinking water that wasn’t boiled, and told that he might freeze if he didn’t dress more warmly in the winter.

Hotstar Projects
Here, you will find a few projects. You can choose to work on any one of them. Each project has a minimum scope as well as extra credits. Regardless of the project you choose, you must finish the minimum scope of the project before you turn it in.
Here is our guidance for you to select the project based on the role you have applied for:
| # | Project |
|---|---|
| 1 | Like Service |
| 2 | Language Affinity Score |
| 3 | Watch History |
Once you have completed the project, please send a mail to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>with links to your work. The specific details are mentioned within the project. If you have any questions about the project, also send an email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Good luck!
Project: Like Service
Background
It is common for people to signal their likes (and dislikes) for the content they consume. Not only does it provide a low friction way for people to express themselves, it’s a powerful signal that can be used to tailor content recommendations to people’s tastes.
Your team at Hotstar is tasked to build the functionality for viewers to Like videos and then use that signal in various recommendation solutions. You have been chosen to develop the backend service that acts as the system of record for user Likes.
Minimum Scope
Create a microservice by using the technology of your choice. This microservice provides the following RESTful APIs:
- Like. This API takes a user id and video id as input. The response indicates success/failure of the API.
- UnLike. This API takes a user id and video id as input. If this user had previously liked a video, the API removes that association. The response indicates success/failure of the API.
- Has Liked. This API takes a user id and a list of video ids as input. For each video id, the response indicates whether the user has liked that video or not.
- Likes Count. This API takes a video id and returns the count of total likes it has received.
Create a self-contained docker image for your microservice. When this docker image is run, your service should be fully up and running and ready to interact with the postman collection you created.
Create a demo video that shows functioning microservice through the postman API client.
Share a document with the following details:
- GitHub link to your microservice code.
- Which database did you use and the schema of that database.
- Link for the postman collection.
- Link for the docker image.
- Link to the demo video.
Extra Credits
You want to include a section in your application that shows the most popular videos over the last 24 hours. The popular videos are determined based on the Like activity of users and the granularity is 1 hour. For example, between 9am-10am of Aug 23, the popularity will be based on Like activity during 9am Aug 22 to 9am Aug 23. However, between 10am-11am of Aug 23, the popularity will be based on activity during 10am Aug 22 to 10am Aug 23.
To support this functionality, extend your microservice to include one more API:
- Popular Videos. This API returns the IDs of 5 most popular vides over the last 24 hours at the 1 hour granularity. More Likes equal to more popularity.
- Runtime Computation. In this method, the system would compute the most popular videos within the API call. Typically, this would be done by running an aggregation query on the database where all the Like activity is stored.
- Periodic Computation on DB. In this method, you would have an offline job that runs every hour through a cron like scheduler. This job would run an aggregation query on the database to compute most popular videos over a 24 hour window and store them in a table within the DB.
- Periodic Computation over Event Stream. In this method, the microservice would publish an event to a message queue for every Like and Unlike event. You would have an offline job that runs every hour through a cron like scheduler. This job would compute the most popular videos over a 24 hour window and store them in a table within the DB.
- Your demo video includes a demo of this functionality.
- Postman collection has the Popular Videos API.
- Docker image contains the corresponding components like message queue and scheduler etc.
Project 2: Language Affinity Score
Background
At Hotstar, you are part of the team that generates video recommendations for the users. When a user visits the website (or mobile app), these recommendations are displayed to the users on the home screen. You are tasked to identify the video language a user is interested in based on the viewing history of that user.
One simple method to compute this score is (number of videos viewed / number of videos presented) for a user for a given language. For example, if a user Ishan was presented with 10 videos in Hindi language, and Ishan watched 2 of those videos, Ishan’s language affinity score for Hindi would be 0.2. You can either use this simple method or go for another one that you find appropriate.
In order to compute this, you have access to an event stream of user activity. The event stream has two types of events. One type relates to a video being displayed to the user while the other event relates to a video being watched by a user. Here are the sample events:
- { "user_id": 4012, "video_id": 982, "lang": "kok", "event_type": "display" }
- { "user_id": 9327, "video_id": 792, "lang": "ur", "event_type": "watch" }
Minimum Scope
In a technology of your choice, please implement a program that wakes up every hour and:
- Discovers all the snapshot files that are available to process.
- For each unprocessed file, it:
- Computes the language affinity score based on the events data.
- Stores the language affinity scores in a database of your choice.
- If there is an error in processing a complete or partial events file, there is a mechanism to retry it in future.
Create a docker image for your application. It should contain the scheduler, database, your application as well as anything else required for retry logic. Running this docker image should start the periodic run of your application.
Create a demo video that shows the functioning program.
Share a document with the following details:
- GitHub link to your code.
- Link to the docker image.
- Which database did you use and the schema of that database.
- Link to the demo video.
Extra Credits
Create a microservice that provides the following API:
- Not Interested. At times, the user could watch a few videos in a language out of curiosity. So, the user should be able to tell us that he/she is not interested in a language and we should stop recommending it. This API takes user id and language name as input and stores the indication that a user is not interested in a particular language.
- Top Categories. This API takes a user id as input and it returns the list of languages with highest affinity score. This API must not return the languages that the user has explicitly marked as “Not Interested”.
If you implement this functionality, please do ensure that:
- Your demo video includes a demo of this functionality as well.
- The GitHub link for the microservice is also included.
- Docker image also has this microservice.
Project 3: Watch History
Background
Hotstar’s web and mobile applications generate telemetry data about people’s video watching activity. The key event of interest is the “progress” event. When a user is watching a video, this event is generated by the client applications every 30 seconds. The event contains video id, user id, total video duration in seconds and the watched video duration in seconds. Here is a sample video stream:
- { "user_id": 802, "video_id": 31, "duration": 5484, "elapsed_duration": 120 }
- { "user_id": 966, "video_id": 26, "duration": 6243, "elapsed_duration": 120 }
- { "user_id": 153, "video_id": 66, "duration": 1725, "elapsed_duration": 0 }
There are several ways to use this data. The first use case is to allow a user to see his/her “Watch History”. This is essentially a screen where a user can see the videos he/she watched in a reverse chronological order. You are tasked to build the backend components to consume this data as well as to build a microservice for fetching user’s “Watch History”.
Minimum Scope
Create a backend system that supports the following functionality:
- Ingestion: Provides an API to receive the telemetry data about the watching activity of the users.
- History: Provide an API that takes a user_id as input and returns the watching activity of the user. The watching activity is in reverse chronological order. Each item within the history has three pieces of information: video_id, duration of video that the user already watched (in seconds) and the time at which the user stopped watching the video.
- Edit History: At times, people want to modify their watch history to remove certain videos. Provide an API that takes a user_id and video_id as input. This API would exclude the video_id from the given user’s watch history for all future calls. This would hold true even if the user re-watches the video in future.
We have made a few sample events available to your development. They are available here. Feel free to make use of these or generate your own synthetic events.

Create a self-contained single docker image for the entire backend. When this docker image is run, all components of your system should be fully up and running and ready to interact with the postman collection you created.
Create a demo video that shows a functioning system through the postman API client.
Share a document with the following details:
- GitHub link to your code.
- Which database did you use and the schema of that database.
- Did you use a message queue? If yes, include the schema of your message(s).
- Link for the postman collection.
- Link for the docker image.
- Link for the demo video.

After the successful launch of Watch History, the product team wants to launch another feature called “Continue Watching” based on the same telemetry data. If a user started watching a video but stopped midway and exited, that video will be presented to the user under “Continue Watching” heading on the home screen.
You are tasked to introduce a new API that takes user_id as input and it returns one video_id for the “Continue Watching” section. If there are no partially-watched videos in the history, the API does not return any video_id. If there are multiple partially-watched videos, the API tries to pick the one that user is most likely to continue watching.
If there are multiple partially-watched videos, there are several ways to pick only one. Our objective is to present the video that the user is most likely to continue watching. This could be based on several factors like time (partially-watched an hour ago vs a year ago), %age watched (the user finished watching 10% vs 90% of the video), popularity (less popular videos vs the most popular ones). We encourage you to devise your own method for the same.
If you implement this functionality, please do ensure that the docker image, postman collection, demo video, github link etc include this functionality.
