The framework is part of the PuppyIR project [1], as funded by the European Union, which is investigating children’s information retrieval (IR). The project’s long term goal is to work towards universal access of information for both children and adults. As part of this, the framework is being developed as a suite of tools to assist developers and researchers in rapidly developing interaction IR applications for children.
In summary, it aims to:
In this Chapter, the key functionalities of the framework are introduced and discussed; links are provided to the Chapters that provide more detailed commentary (and examples) of each functionality discussed here. To accomplish the aims listed above, the framework offers a developer, or researcher, a large variety of functionalities and associated components. These are split up into several distinct sections of the framework (for a full list, of all the individual components in these sections, please see consult the PuppyIR API Reference).
PuppyIR provides a standardised format for both queries and the results of a search, called a response. This is so that all the components are able to interoperate and also because having this consistency, makes it easier for developers/researchers to make use of these elements in their applications. This standardised format is an implementation of the OpenSearch Standard and the frameworks model of them can be found in PuppyIR’s ‘query’ and ‘response’ classes; which are used by all the components that deal with such data. Many search services and API’s support this standard, but, in some cases, some processing is required - in order to present data in a form that it is compliant with the OpenSearch standard (there are many examples of this processing in the framework’s search engine wrappers).
There are two paradigms, included with the framework, for developers/researchers to use to build PuppyIR based applications, these are:
A developer/researcher can select the paradigm that is most suited to their application; no matter which one is used, the same components and options (for configuring them) are available. This is due to all the components being generalised, in terms of their: interface, methods and parameters. All of the paradigms, however, make use of the ‘query’ and ‘response’ formats as mentioned earlier (however, the a pipeline service returns ‘response’ objects in a slightly different way).
Included with the framework are two kinds of logger, both of these are designed to assist developers and researchers in evaluating their applications, they are: (1) a query logger and (2), an event logger. Between these two kinds of logger, any kind of data required to be logged can be, for evaluation/analytical purposes.
Both the Search and Pipeline Services provide the ability to log queries, sent to the service in question, by a user. It is possible to log such queries at two distinct stages:
This allows two key areas to be investigated: (1) what sort of queries the users are sending and (2), the results of the query pipeline(s), defined in the application, on these queries.
The event logger provides a developer with a component that allows them to log only the details they wish (for the event being logged) to be logged for their specific application. This is possible via a keyword arguments parameter to the log method. However, an ‘identifier’ and ‘type’ must be supplied in order to differentiate the different events and assist with categorisation for analysis of the log file(s).
The PuppyIR framework comes with a variety of custom exceptions for its components and also a unit test suite. These are discussed, in-depth, in Exception Handling in PuppyIR and The PuppyIR Framework Test Suite.
The PuppyIR API Reference contains the full details of all the varied filters and modifiers that come with the PuppyIR framework. Examples include: a query filter, that rejects queries containing profanity; a suitability filter, that evaluates the suitability of a web result (for children) then accepts or rejects it based on a minimum score and a term expansion modifier, that adds extra terms to a user’s query (like ‘for kids’ to skew results in certain ways).
The PuppyIR framework contains a number of varied search engine wrappers. In this section - an overview of these wrappers, in terms of their category, is provided in order to provide an easy access guide to what is available (to enable a developer to select what best suits the application they have in mind). For more details of the implementation and usage of these wrappers please refer to the PuppyIR API Reference.
Please note that wrappers can, and do, appear in multiple categories as some wrappers are more general purpose than other, more specific, services. Also, the generic ‘web’ results category is not listed but is provided by, for example, Bing please see the API guide for more.
Some of these wrappers require API keys (again, see the API reference for details) in these cases, this requires the developer to sign up for said key on the respective search service webpages for the API in question.
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| GoogleBooks | This wrapper provides access to the Google Books data store, you can search for books and, in some cases, retrieve samples or whole books for reading (you need to embed the samples if used in an application). |
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Bing and BingV2 | Allows for the retrieval of images using Bing’s search API, including options like only get widescreen images. |
| Flickr | Retrieves images from the Flickr web service, including lots of details like geotags and more. |
| Picassa | Retrieves images from the Picassa web service. |
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Wikipedia | Allows the searching of wikipedia’s database. They results consist only of a link, snippet (summary) and a title, hence, this is not suitable if you require a large amount of textual content; but it is ideal for providing a short description for children. |
| Simple Wikipedia | An alternate version of the above wrapper, using the Simple Wikipedia variant of the Wikipedia API. |
These services allow for searching for: either results in a defined location or for a location itself.
N.B. Google Geocode should be used to retrieve the geo-coordinates and/or bounding box to use with the other services as their location based parameter(s).
For an example of this in action, a prototype (it should be noted, that this prototype was abandoned and the code is quite rough in addition to it not being styled) is available which you can download via:
$ svn co https://puppyir.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/puppyir/branches/working/LSee LSee
$ cd LSee
$ python manage.py runserver
Visit: http://localhost:8000/lsee
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Flickr | Allows for the retrieval of geotagged images within a defined bounding box. |
| Google Geocode | This service allows results to be retrieved for locations, for example, if you search for ‘Edinburgh’ it will return details of the various Edinburgh’s around the world (like their location/latitude). |
| Allows for the retrieval of geotagged tweets made within a box defined by a point - the origin - with a radius to define a box around the point. | |
| YouTube V2 | Allows for the retrieval of geotagged videos from within a box defined by a point - the origin - with a radius to define a box around the point. |
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Rotten Tomatoes | Allows for the retrieval of details about movies like: the cast and aggregated review score etc. |
N.B. YouTube and YouTubeV2 are also, arguably, a music based services due to the large proportion of music based content.
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| ITunes | The iTunes wrapper allows you to search for not only music, but also forms of media such as movies and TV shows. |
| LastFM | Allows for searching for music using LastFM, specifically, you can search for: tracks, albums and artists. |
| Soundcloud | This wrapper allows you to search for music on the Soundcloud service, using advanced searching parameters like genre and beats per minute. |
| Spotify | Allows for searching for music using Spotify (and get links to play the songs), specifically, you can search for: tracks, albums and artists. |
These wrappers provide the ability to search for news stories.
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Bing and BingV2 | Allow for the searching of the ‘news’ results. |
| Guardian | Is a wrapper for the search api of the UK based newspaper: the Guardian. While UK based this service also provides a large variety of stories about events the world over. |
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| BingV2 | Using the spell source type spelling corrections to a query. |
| Wordnik | This service provides a spelling correction feature, in addition to providing definitions of words and examples of words in context (via selections of text from various web pages). |
| Web Spell Checker | Allows for searching for spelling corrections in a variety of languages - there is no extra information returned however just the spelling correction suggestion. |
These wrappers provide the ability to search for videos. It should be noted that Bing’s search engine strongly favours YouTube results so there is a lot of overlap if both it and YouTube are used in the same application.
| Service Name | Description |
|---|---|
| BingV2 | Allows for the retrieval of video results using Bing’s search API. |
| YouTube and YouTubeV2 | Results from YouTube come with an embed URL so they can be played in-line (as seen in the MaSe and aMuSeV3 prototypes). |
As stated in the aims detailed earlier, the extensibility of the framework and its components is a key aspect of its design. In is possible to add, customise and extend all of the components, discussed above, for use in a PuppyIR based application. However, several distinct areas have been selected to be written up for this document, i.e. the process for going about adding new components is detailed. These areas were identified as being the most likely for developers/researchers to wish to extend and are described briefly below.
It is expected that the area, of the framework, especially, is one with great potential for future expansion and development. This is due to the inevitable influx of new API’s and updates to the ones currently supported by the PuppyIR framework. The section detailing this area, therefore, looks at how to write new wrappers that are compatibly both with the architectural paradigms as well as the other components that interact with search engine wrappers (i.e. filters etc). See: Adding new Search Engine Wrappers for more details on this.
The other areas identified as being a likely candidate for extension, are the filters and modifiers available in both the query (Extending the Query Pipeline) & result (Extending the Result Pipeline) pipelines. A lot of the filters and modifiers included with the framework were developed as part of, or in response to, the latest research in children’s information retrieval hence, this being a likely area to get added to as researchers/developers explore new methods & techniques.
The PuppyIR framework is designed, built and maintained using Python 2.7; Python 3.x is not supported and earlier versions may have compatibility issue. It is, therefore, recommended to upgrade to Python 2.7 rather than using earlier versions. For details of some of the known Python compatibility issues please consult the Known issues with the PuppyIR framework page.
The PuppyIR framework can be used to build a standalone service for research and development purposes. This mode has minimal requirements and simplifies the process of building custom search services that do not require a user interface. See Building a Standalone PuppyIR Service for more information.
Many workplaces and research institutions use a proxy server and so, any applications created, using PuppyIR, would need to go through such a proxy server. The framework, therefore, offers a simple interface for its components that enables developers/researchers to easily set-up the components they are using to work with a defined proxy server. The code below shows how to create a service in both the paradigms, included with the framework:
# Set-up a config setting for a proxy server
config = {"proxyhost": "http://your-proxy-server-address"}
# -- Paradigm 1 and proxy servers --
# ----------------------------------
# Create a service manager and set it to use config
sm = ServiceManager(config)
# Create a search service for Bing Web
ss = SearchService(sm, "bing_web")
# Set our new search service to use the Bing wrapper
ss.search_engine = Bing(ss)
# Add new search service to ServiceManager
sm.add_search_service(ss)
# -- Paradigm 2 and proxy servers --
# ----------------------------------
# Create a Pipeline Service called 'myPipeline' using config
pipelineService = PipelineService(config, "myPipeline")
# Create a Bing search engine wrapper
bing = Bing(pipelineService)
# Add Bing to our search engine manager (this stores all our search engines)
pipelineService.searchEngineManager.add_search_engine("Bing", bing)
The PuppyIR framework can be integrated with the Django web application framework to provide a toolkit for rapidly prototyping and deploying search services for children on the web. PuppyIR includes a number of components that augment the existing Django functionality. See BaSe Tutorial: Building a PuppyIR/Django Service for more information.
N.B. Django is provided as an example, the framework can also work with other Python based web application frameworks as no parts of the framework are tied into Django.

Social Network and Social News Services¶


The base parser class (Parser) defines two methods, _scan and _peek, and two fields, _pos and _scanner. The generated parser inherits from the base parser, and contains one method for each rule in the grammar. To avoid name clashes, do not use names that begin with an underscore (_).
Yapps produces as output two exception classes, a scanner class, a parser class, and a function parse that puts everything together. The parse function does not have to be used; instead, one can create a parser and scanner object and use them together for parsing.
def parse(rule, text): P = X(XScanner(text)) return wrap_error_reporter(P, rule)
The parse function takes a name of a rule and an input string as input. It creates a scanner and parser object, then calls wrap_error_reporter to execute the method in the parser object named rule. The wrapper function will call the appropriate parser rule and report any parsing errors to standard output.
There are several situations in which the parse function would not be useful. If a different parser or scanner is being used, or exceptions are to be handled differently, a new parse function would be required. The supplied parse function can be used as a template for writing a function for your own needs. An example of a custom parse function is the generate function in Yapps.py.
Unlike most scanners, the scanner produced by Yapps can take into account the context in which tokens are needed, and try to match only good tokens. For example, in the grammar:
parser IniFile: token ID: "[a-zA-Z_0-9]+" token VAL: ".*" rule pair: ID "[ \t]*=[ \t]*" VAL "\n"
we would like to scan lines of text and pick out a name/value pair. In a conventional scanner, the input string shell=progman.exe would be turned into a single token of type VAL. The Yapps scanner, however, knows that at the beginning of the line, an ID is expected, so it will return "shell" as a token of type ID. Later, it will return "progman.exe" as a token of type VAL.
Context sensitivity decreases the separation between scanner and parser, but it is useful in parsers like IniFile, where the tokens themselves are not unambiguous, but are unambiguous given a particular stage in the parsing process.
Unfortunately, context sensitivity can make it more difficult to detect errors in the input. For example, in parsing a Pascal-like language with ``begin'' and ``end'' as keywords, a context sensitive scanner would only match ``end'' as the END token if the parser is in a place that will accept the END token. If not, then the scanner would match ``end'' as an identifier. To disable the context sensitive scanner in Yapps, add the context-insensitive-scanner option to the grammar:
Parser X: option: "context-insensitive-scanner"
Context-insensitive scanning makes the parser look cleaner as well.
There are two internal fields that may be of use. The parser object has two fields, _pos, which is the index of the current token being matched, and _scanner, which is the scanner object. The token itself can be retrieved by accessing the scanner object and calling the token method with the token index. However, if you call token before the token has been requested by the parser, it may mess up a context-sensitive scanner.1 A potentially useful combination of these fields is to extract the portion of the input matched by the current rule. To do this, just save the scanner state (_scanner.pos) before the text is matched and then again after the text is matched:
rule R: {{ start = self._scanner.pos }} a b c {{ end = self._scanner.pos }} {{ print 'Text is', self._scanner.input[start:end] }}
Sometimes the parser code needs to rely on helper variables, functions, and classes. A Yapps grammar can optionally be surrounded by double percent signs, to separate the grammar from Python code.
... Python code ... %% ... Yapps grammar ... %% ... Python code ...
The second %%
can be omitted if there is no Python code at the
end, and the first %%
can be omitted if there is no extra
Python code at all. (To have code only at the end, both separators
are required.)
If the second %%
is omitted, Yapps will insert testing code
that allows you to use the generated parser to parse a file.
The extended calculator example in the Yapps examples subdirectory includes both pre-parser and post-parser code.
For each kind of pattern there is a class derived from Pattern. Yapps has classes for Terminal, NonTerminal, Sequence, Choice, Option, Plus, Star, and Eval. Each of these classes has the following interface:
Both setup and update monotonically increase the variables they modify. Since the variables can only increase a finite number of times, we can repeatedly call the function until the variable stabilized. The used function is not currently implemented.
With each pattern in the grammar Yapps associates three pieces of information: the FIRSTset, the FOLLOWset, and the accepts- flag.
The FIRSTset contains the tokens that can appear as we start matching the pattern. The FOLLOWset contains the tokens that can appear immediately after we match the pattern. The accepts- flag is true if the pattern can match no tokens. In this case, FIRST will contain all the elements in FOLLOW. The FOLLOWset is not needed when accepts- is false, and may not be accurate in those cases.
Yapps does not compute these sets precisely. Its approximation can miss certain cases, such as this one:
rule C: ( A* | B ) rule B: C [A]
Yapps will calculate C's FOLLOWset to include A. However, C will always match all the A's, so A will never follow it. Yapps 2.0 does not properly handle this construct, but if it seems important, I may add support for it in a future version.
Yapps also cannot handle constructs that depend on the calling sequence. For example:
rule R: U | 'b' rule S: | 'c' rule T: S 'b' rule U: S 'a'
The FOLLOWset for S includes a and b. Since S can be empty, the FIRSTset for S should include a,
b, and c. However, when parsing R, if the lookahead
is b we should not parse U. That's because in U, S is followed by a and not b. Therefore in
R, we should choose rule U only if there is an a or
c, but not if there is a b. Yapps and many other LL(1)
systems do not distinguish S b and S a, making S's FOLLOWset a, b, and making R always try to match
U. In this case we can solve the problem by changing R to
'b' | U
but it may not always be possible to solve all such
problems in this way.

| MPI_BCAST( buffer, count, datatype, root, comm ) | |
| INOUT buffer | starting address of buffer (choice) |
| IN count | number of entries in buffer (non-negative integer) |
| IN datatype | data type of buffer (handle) |
| IN root | rank of broadcast root (integer) |
| IN comm | communicator (handle) |
int MPI_Bcast(void* buffer, int count, MPI_Datatype datatype, int root, MPI_Comm comm )
MPI_BCAST(BUFFER, COUNT, DATATYPE, ROOT, COMM, IERROR)
If comm is an intracommunicator,
MPI_BCAST broadcasts a message from
the process with rank root to all processes
of the group, itself included.
It is called by all members of
the
group using the same arguments for
comm
and
root.
On return, the
content of root's buffer is copied to all other processes.
General, derived datatypes are allowed for datatype.
The type signature of count, datatype on any process must
be equal to the type signature of count, datatype at the root.
This implies that the amount of data sent must be equal to the amount received,
pairwise between each process and the root.
MPI_BCAST and all other data-movement collective routines
make this restriction.
Distinct type maps between sender and receiver are still allowed.
The ``in place'' option is not meaningful here.
If comm is an intercommunicator, then the call involves all
processes in the intercommunicator, but with one group (group A) defining the
root process. All processes in the other group (group B) pass the same value
in argument
root, which is the rank of the root in group A. The root
passes the value MPI_ROOT in root.
All other processes in group A pass the value MPI_PROC_NULL in
root.
Data is broadcast from the root to all processes in group B.
The
buffer arguments of the processes in group B must be consistent with
the buffer argument of the root.

What Is Feature Testing?
Feature testing is using Capybara to test user experience through a web application. Capybara uses its own browser to replicate a user. Use capybara method save_and_open_page in feature tests to debug problems quickly.
Why Feature?
Testing in Rails requires you to think about how long it takes to run a test suite. While feature testing can test all restful routes, it takes much longer than a controller test or model test. For this post, I will run feature tests, but in the future I will break my tests down into controller, model, and feature tests.
Setting up RSpec for Rails
Rails comes bundled with its own version of testing, but I'll use RSpec for feature testing.
The first thing that I run from the console is rails new -T name_of_app. This will create a new rails application without the test folder.
Gemfile
Next I'll setup my gems to allow for Rspec. Make sure to change gem 'sqlite3' to 'pg'(note, remove all the versions in group :development, :test and group :test)
Run rails g rspec:install from shell to create your spec folder and spec_helper.rb
Put require 'capybara/rspec', 'factory_girl_rails' in rspec_helper and change the RSpec.configure
Database
Let's setup the config file for our databases next. Go to database.yml and setup your databases for development, test, and production. Go to config/database.yml and post the following:
After configuring the database, run rake db:create:all to create your databases.
Migrations
run rails g migration name_of_migration and make the table with corresponding columns
Migrate your databases using rake db:migrate (do db:test:clone to setup your test db migrations.)
Models
Now that you have the tables in your database, create the associated models(Remember! ORM!) Models are singularly named! models inherit from ActiveRecord::Base
Routes
The last thing you create before using feature testing to TDD your application are your routes. Navigate to config/routes.rb and make your routes.
Feature Testing TDD
Now here comes the fun part. Lets setup a factory that creates objects we can test. Create a factories folder with the name of your factory.rb(singular!)
Now create a features folder with a file named model_name_spec.rb
require 'spec_helper' in your features model_name_spec.rb file.
Capybara uses syntax feature for RSpec's describe and scenario for Rspec's it
From there you can create the Controller#Action and .html.erb views
Note: HTTP routes in route.rb goes to controller#action that has corresponding view.html.erb In view, you can use link_to path([object]) to redirect to another http route in routes.rb and its associated controller#action

Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate ‘responsive’ after scary hit
by Adam HillOAKLAND, Calif.—Bengals coach Zac Taylor had little information on the status of wide receiver Auden Tate after his team suffered a 17-10 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.
Tate was carted off the field in the fourth quarter after he was hit by Oakland safety Curtis Riley while making a diving catch on a 20-yard gain.
He stayed down on the grass at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum for several minutes while being tended to by the training staff.
“I can just tell you he was responsive to me,” Taylor said after the game. “He could talk and motion and all that. Hopefully it was just mostly precautionary, but again, I don’t have anymore details on that.”
The organization expected Tate to fly home with the team, NFL Network reported late Sunday.
Tate, a 22-year-old out of Florida State, waved and gave a thumbs up as he was loaded onto a cart while strapped to a stretcher.
He was Cincinnati’s leading receiver in the game with four catches for 56 yards.

Man charged in hit-and-run suspect’s apparent overdose death
CINCINNATI (AP) - A prosecutor says a man accused in the apparent overdose death of a jail inmate awaiting trial on charges of driving over a curb and killing a toddler in a stroller has been indicted in Cincinnati.
Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters (DEE’ turz) says 27-year-old Kadeem Kelley was indicted Monday on involuntary manslaughter and drug charges in 31-year-old Satwinder Singh’s death at the county jail. Authorities say Singh was found unresponsive in his cell in March and died.
Deters says Kelley also was being held in the jail and worked as a porter, serving food to inmates. Authorities say he allegedly supplied drugs to Singh.
Court records don’t show an attorney for Kelley.
Singh faced charges including aggravated vehicular homicide in the 2-year-old boy’s death.

This is a simple blog application built using Backbone, Underscore, jQuery, requireJS, Moment and Twitter Bootstrap.


Brandon is a graduate of Winona State University with a BS in Business Administration. He worked for Fastenal in various aspects from picking orders to sales calls (cold, warm, and hot), to purchasing items from vendors. He became a Stay at Home Dad in August of 2011 after their oldest daughter was born. He opened up a buying and selling business during that time and purchased many different items from estate sales, auctions, garage sales, and others and sold them in various methods. Using that experience, he helped his wife open their consulting business in September of 2015. He's been running the business side of that since it’s conception. He also wrote a children’s book under their consulting business.
Brandon's ideal work is with an organization that is designed to help people. His main drive is to help people better themselves and the world around them. He would love to use his coding skills in a team environment that thrives on helping and encouraging one another to take the work one step further. He would want something that regularly stretches his skills and knowledge. If there is a clear goal set, he is not afraid of putting his head down and getting the work done that needs to get done.
Work/life balance that Brandon would like includes working mostly remotely with the ability to go into an office. When going into an office, ideally it would be in a community style office rather than being a cubicle or closed off. He would also like the flexibility to work when he's able to work as opposed to a set time schedule. Some of his best work is created in traditionally off hours.
Brandon is most proud of the path he has taken to get to where he is today. He sees life in terms of building blocks. Each piece of experience or knowledge on its own doesn’t look like much, but once you start putting all those blocks together, you start to see something amazing. He's had some really high highs (The births of his children, marriage, opening two successful businesses, writing a children’s book that many kids love, being one of the top salespeople for Fastenal) and some really low lows (his father’s passing at the age of 21) in his life, but each of those experiences has made him who he is today. He am also very proud of how far He's come in his coding bootcamp. After about week 3, he felt like he was completely overwhelmed and would not be able to make it through the class. Through a lot of hard work, today, he's realized how much he's learned and how far he's come. He may not be able to apply for a senior position that would usually come with his age group, but he knows that he can get work that he never would have dreamed possible before starting the coding bootcamp.

Go, Rust, Erlang, R, Closure and what all the new(er) languages around the block are all called. But one thing is certain: They are all niche languages. Why is that? Why don't we have another C or Java? One language to rule them all?
If you have ever chosen a new language to program in, you know the steps: Look at whats available, dabble in them, find out what other people think about it. Or you might do it like I did. Chose a framework, and then learn the language that this framework is written in. This way I got started in Ruby.
Big Languages Are The Past, Right?
But is the time for big languages, ones that we use for everything, coming to an end? Maybe. The last "big" language is C#, and just because it got a lot of promotion from Microsoft. Before that? Java. C. Cobol. Let's not go further into the past please!
And while no new all purpose language has come out, we get more and more niche languages. R for data processing. Rust for systems programing. ClosureScript for writing web applications in a LISP dialect.
Programming Languages Have A Short Lifespan
Is the time of the all purpose programming language coming to an end? I think so. There was a time when a company would use one language. One framework. One database. One operation system.
But today? Employees chose their operation system. Databases are mix and matched freely for whatever purpose they serve best. And programming languages are intermingled in huge systems.
The Programming Language Lifecycle
Programming languages seem to have a limited lifetime. They take a few years to mature, are then picked up, and a few more years later, replaced by something new.
And I think we should all embrace this change. Because we learn a lot about language design, programming. CPUs get faster and faster, so the language designers can get away with even more every year.
Is this cycle inevitable? Yes. It is. There are some languages which try to dump every new thing into it (hello Java, hello C#!).
But look at what happens when you just put everything in your fridge in a pan and let it cook for an hour. You get crap! The same thing happens to languages as well. The only fix is to do something new, which takes full advantage of that new paradigm.
No Good Programmer Knows Just One Language
Programmers who can just use one language are becoming a rarity. Does who do will soon be obsolete. So don't think just because you use Ruby you are save. Ruby is quite popular right now, so according to the language life cycle, it will soon be made obsolete by something better.
Will everyone switch to the new thing? Of course not, there is a good reason why big companies still search for Cobol programmers.
But those of us who want to stay ahead, who want to belong the circle of not just good programmers, but great programmers. We can't look the other way. We can't ignore all new languages and stay too comfy with our current languages.
Don't have a holy cow that you aren't ready to slaughter!

Mothercare UK administration plan threatens 2,500 jobs
Baby goods retailer Mothercare has said it plans to call in administrators to the troubled firm's UK business, putting 2,500 jobs at risk.
Mothercare said its 79 UK stores were "not capable" of achieving a sufficient level of profitability and that so far it had failed to find a buyer.
It said its stores would continue to trade as normal for the time being.
Analysts said Mothercare had been slow to adapt to competition from rivals and the switch to online retailing.
Mothercare has already gone through a rescue deal, known as a company voluntary arrangement (CVA). This is an insolvency process that allows a business to reach an agreement with its creditors to pay off all or part of its debts. The process enabled the chain to shut 55 shops.
The firm said the decision to appoint administrators was "a necessary step in the restructuring and refinancing" of the group.
"Plans are well advanced and being finalised for execution imminently. A further announcement will be made in due course," it said.
Aisa Kara's parenting journey started in Mothercare when she used its Babybond ultrasound scanning service.
"I was so anxious waiting for my 12-week scan, and I don't think either of us could believe it was actually happening, so we booked our private appointment," she said.
"Everything was OK and we viewed a heartbeat, so we left elated, and as it was in Mothercare we got to buy our first item of baby clothing at the same time.
"We bought all our nursery items and pushchair from there, and my daughter and son have been dressed in Mothercare almost exclusively.
"The baby clothing is beautiful and I love the vintage styles. My only complaint is that the online experience isn't as good as you would have expected from a company trying to keep up with the market."
Dave Gill, national officer at the shopworkers' union Usdaw, said: "Usdaw is providing our members in Mothercare with the support, representation and advice they need at this difficult and uncertain time.
"We will urge the administrators to treat the staff with dignity and respect, keep them fully informed through the administration process, do everything possible to save jobs and keep as many stores open as possible and prioritise stabilising the business to provide a more certain future."
It is understood Mothercare is in advanced talks to move its pension schemes from its British operations over to its international parent company which remains profitable.
As first reported by Sky, the aim is to stop the schemes being placed in the Pension Protection Fund, which would likely result in cuts for members.
The company operates in more than 40 overseas territories, which are not subject to administration.
In the financial year to March 2019, Mothercare's international business generated profits of £28.3m, whereas the UK retail operations lost £36.3m.
In its heyday, Mothercare had hundreds of stores. It was the go-to place for new parents. But it failed to keep up with our changing shopping habits. Mothercare's UK arm has been loss-making for years. One big reason is there's so much more competition these days.
From Zara and H&M to the major supermarkets, there are no shortages of places to buy children's clothing and often at cheaper prices. And then there's online, with the likes of Amazon who are able to deliver basic kit to your doorstep within hours of ordering. It has all eaten into Mothercare's market share.
Truth is, this is a business that's been losing money for a very long time. Last year's CVA wasn't enough to turn things around. Mothercare ran out of time and money to try to revive its fortunes.
Shifting trends
Mothercare's move comes as High Street retailers continue to face tough times amid a squeeze on consumers' income, the growth of online shopping and the rising costs of staff, rents and business rates.
Retail analyst Steve Dresser told the BBC that like collapsed travel firm Thomas Cook, Mothercare had failed to adapt to the world of online retail.
"They got very used to fat margins and a way of trading that's store-based," he said.
However, the firm had also lost its way on the High Street, with poor store environments that deterred customers. Ultimately, he said, people did not think of Mothercare first when it came to buying baby goods: "I think you would be hard-pressed to know what the brand stands for."
Julie Palmer, partner at Begbies Traynor, said Mothercare had become "a byword for trouble on the High Street", demonstrating "the failure of well-established brands to stay afloat".
She added: "Other retailers, particularly those who have also previously filed for CVAs, will be concerned that these restructuring plans haven't succeeded and a more radical approach may be required in order to survive."
Richard Lim, boss of independent research consultancy Retail Economics, said: "This is perhaps one of the most highly anticipated collapses on the High Street... the cost-cutting operation and disposal of assets have not gone far enough to revive plummeting profits.
"Years of underinvestment in the online business and its inability to differentiate itself as a specialist for young families and expectant parents has been the root of its seemingly inevitable downfall. As competition has become fiercer they have been beaten on price, convenience and the overall customer experience."

Depending on the WSGI gateway/server, exceptions are handled differently. But most of the time, exceptions go to stderr or the error log.
Since this is not the best debugging environment, Werkzeug provides a WSGI middleware that renders nice debugging tracebacks, optionally with an AJAX based debugger (which allows to execute code in the context of the traceback’s frames).
The interactive debugger however does not work in forking environments which makes it nearly impossible to use on production servers. Also the debugger allows the execution of arbitrary code which makes it a major security risk and must never be used on production machines because of that.
You can enable the debugger by wrapping the application in a DebuggedApplication middleware. Additionally there are parameters to the run_simple() function to enable it because this is a common task during development.
Enables debugging support for a given application:
from werkzeug.debug import DebuggedApplication
from myapp import app
app = DebuggedApplication(app, evalex=True)
The evalex keyword argument allows evaluating expressions in a traceback’s frame context.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|
Once enabled and an error happens during a request you will see a detailed traceback instead of a general “internal server error”. If you have the evalex feature enabled you can also get a traceback for every frame in the traceback by clicking on the console icon.
Once clicked a console opens where you can execute Python code in:
Inside the interactive consoles you can execute any kind of Python code. Unlike regular Python consoles the output of the object reprs is colored and stripped to a reasonable size by default. If the output is longer than what the console decides to display a small plus sign is added to the repr and a click will expand the repr.
To display all variables that are defined in the current frame you can use the dump() function. You can call it without arguments to get a detailed list of all variables and their values, or with an object as argument to get a detailed list of all the attributes it has.
If you click on the Traceback title the traceback switches over to a text based one. The text based one can be pasted to paste.pocoo.org with one click.


Improve search - more information
This page is to document more & more in-depth information about what we're making / have made. Including some of the things we know it doesn't do - yet.
Contents
Problems people have - pain that we're are trying to reduce
our general hypothesis is that we will lessen these problems
People:
- don't understand why places (addresses) are missing
- don't know what to do if they can't see the place they want
- struggle picking the right record (title) - we expect people to!
- because - A1 property description
- multiple titles at an address
- don't know which will contain the right information they seek (eg the owner)
- don't understand a place can have more than one title record
- pick and buy the wrong title
- don't undertsand tenures
How to measure improvments
our more specific hypotheses of what will happen - and how to test/measure it
Note: We may need to baseline existing data before we ship
- more people will succeed in finding the place (address)
a) first time;
b) overall.
because - results match mental model; are complete; are in a logical order.- "i can't find it" - feedback should decrease
- we will get less (%) of people doing non postcode search
- less 'churn' - around the search / search results - before leaving / going to about (pppa or about title)
- less 'back and forth' - between results and about page(s) (pppa and about)
- less deliberation (time spent) on a results page
- more people will succeed in finding the title record they need / want
a) first time;
b) overall.
because - place to title is clearer;- less 'churn' - around the search / search results - before leaving / going to about (pppa or about title)
- less 'back and forth' - between results and about page(s) (pppa and about)
i.e. less deliberation - we see a decrease in the difference between searches and next stage - start of completion
- we see an increase in completion because - its easier to get what you came for
- feedback about 'search'
- will decrease - overall amount
- will get more specific (less 'search is rubbish', more 'why don't you have anything for x'
- new - page per property address
- we'll get people leaving the service at this page
- we'll get new feedback about being confused by this page / titles. This feedback will be specifically about being confused by 'things' (i.e. titles)
Note: if we can track this feedback to this page - it will be very beneficial - people will spend a long time on this page (because they have to make a choice thats hard for them) - should see this in analytics.
- Measure how well the 'whats the difference between Freehold and Leasehold' works - in getting people to pick the title they need.
- I'd like to measure how may people open the accordion. (best ever copy / but accordions have always cause people problems)
- Are people who open the accordion more successful in picking the right title / completion rate
- miscellaneous
- we will display max 100 addresses. We think there are about 50 postcodes with more than 100 addresses. Monitor how many times the user hits the limit - and what postcode it is.
- ordering addresses is difficult. Can be very hard for user to find their result, especially when paginated (20 per 'page'). Find more ordering rules based on feedback/looking at our database - they will need documenting and testing.
- we currently show 20 results per page (this was an arbitrary number). Keep an eye on feedback / pagination events and perhaps try changing the limit - e.g. where is the sweet spot (mode?)
- there are lots of titles that cannot be found by user - because the way the data is linked / our apps built. Users wont know this - try to fix / explain / show size of / give forward journey / record instances not found by people.


Revealing the fifth winner of the ‘Dear John’ hearing aids contest
by John CrudeleReaders: Here is the fifth winner of Lively hearing aids. Two more to go. And then maybe a surprise. — John
Dear John:
My name is Levi, and I’m the proud 25-year-old dad of a beautiful 5-month-old.
Unfortunately, hearing loss runs in my family, and my daughter needed a new pair of hearing aids, which, of course, aren’t covered by insurance.
This really set us back because I was hoping to get hearing aids for myself, as I also have hearing loss. I haven’t gotten a new pair since I was 18.
We have just never been able to scrape up enough money for them. I’ve applied for a number of different grants, but have been denied due to being slightly over the maximum income.
Getting a new set of hearing aids for myself would make a world of difference in my life, from being able to interact with my daughter to being more aware and adept at work. I appreciate your work, consideration and time spent reading this.
Now you can hear the baby crying at night. No more excuses for not getting up!
Wear them well.

After a couple of losses it's nice to get something, but before the game we'd have hoped for more.
I haven't got many detailsso far, but in difficult conditions Rocester took the lead from a speculative shot that deceived Tim Clarke. We equalised in the second half after a golamouth scramble, the goal was maybe given to Leroy May (although my contacts aren't sure about this).
We've now slipped to 5th place , with Solihull losing but Clevedon, Evesham and Stourport all winning. Saturday brings old rivals Atherstone to The Grove in a game where I'm sure we're going to get back to winning ways.
P.S. There were odd problems on the site on Tuesday. Apologies for that - it was all my service provider's fault :-(

Court docs allege drug trafficking conspiracy after multimillion-dollar home raided
by Craig SmithWe're learning more about the year-long investigation that led federal agents to raid a multimillion-dollar home northwest of Tucson last week.
Raul Garcia Cordova, 47, was arrested after Homeland Security Investigations agents executed a search warrant at his home near the intersection of Moore Road and Como Drive Thursday. Investigators say their search turned up marijuana, vape pens, equipment to make vape pens, drug ledgers and plenty of cash.
KGUN 9 was there when agents hauled away multiple vehicles including SUVs, pickup trucks, a sports car, a trailer and a motorboat.
RELATED: Arizona man arrested, multi-million-dollar home raided in HSI money laundering, drug investigation
The complaint against homeowner Raul Garcia Cordova says he bankrolled an operation that used UPS to ship vape pens that dispense THC, the psycho-active ingredient in marijuana. He's now facing 13 charges, including drug manufacturing, money laundering and weapons violations.
New court documents filed Thursday reveal he's not the only one implicated in the investigation.
The documents say agents and detectives began their investigation last November.
They say in June they bought 100 THC vape pens, then in September seized multiple THC vape pens from a Vape shop that had purchased the pens from the organization.
Detectives describe 32-year-old Fernando Navarro-Figueroa as being in charge of the stash house where some of the illegal items were stored, and in charge of multiple members of the drug trafficking organization.
Court clerks say the investigation resulted in 11 defendants altogether. Their indictments haven't yet been filed in court.
Cardova is jailed unless he can post a bond of $250,000 cash. Navarro will need to post $75,000 in cash to bond out.

I work with organizations to learn about complex problems and what can be done at them. My research interests lie in positively dealing with the challenges relating to current societal and technological trends. This space was made in the spirit of open science, to share my thoughts on ongoing research and practice and things mostly unrelated but that I wanted to write about anyway.
Links to more polished work are available on here.


I was commissioned by the Inter-American Development Bank to carry out a study on the 2018 socio-economic crisis in Nicaragua and its impact on poverty. To do so, I had access to a rich database from Telefonica with a series of indicators generated from the mobile phone activity of users in the country before and after the crisis.
On April 18, 2018, a sociopolitical crisis started in Nicaragua following protests against social security reforms that increased taxes and cut into benefits. The resulting economic impact of the crisis was reported as particularly devastating. However, no accurate data covering the whole country at fine granularity is available to date to assess the scale of this impact. In particular, very little data exists to estimate the number of people who have fallen below the poverty line as a result of the crisis.
Poverty is traditionally estimated from national household surveys which are expensive, labour intensive and time-consuming. Consequently, poverty maps are generally available at low frequency and only representative at coarse granularity. On the other hand, non-traditional data sources such as mobile phone data have demonstrated great potential for estimating poverty at low cost, more frequently and at high resolution. Their continuous and almost real-time availability makes them an interesting asset for crisis monitoring. However, although the potential exists in theory, it has yet to be empirically proven. By studying the variability of mobile phone data before and after the Nicaraguan crisis, this study aims to assess the value of these data for tracking a temporal decline in socio-economic and poverty indicators and provide first quantitative estimates of the impact of the crisis over time.
The results are (unfortunately) confidential.
Experian DataLab Brazil has partnered with Dalberg Data Insights to pilot an online marketplace aiming to bring together the different actors of data innovation for social good (data analysts, data providers, funders, problem owners...).
In this project I participated in the development of two case study applications. Finapp is a toolbox to design the best strategy for increasing financial inclusion in a country. It provides a series of tools for the visualization and analysis of spatialized financial inclusion data. I developed this app from A to Z, from conception, through design and implementation. Disease app is an epidemiological disease modeling application for which I developed the front end. Finally, I also participated in the design of the market place itself (preliminary design and front-end contribution).
Dalberg Data Insights proposed a case study to GIZ, the German cooperation agency, to demonstrate the use of their internal data in use cases that leverage artificial intelligence. In this case, the project was to develop an information system on the cashew crop in Burkina Faso using Sentinel-2 satellite images. This starting point served to lay the foundations for a more ambitious strategy on the governance of training data available at GIZ.
I led this project from A to Z, from the business development to the delivery of the final products, including the technical management of the project and the design of the scale-up.
Dalberg Data Insights, the Qatar Computing Research Institute and the World Bank Group convened experts to join a Poverty Mapping workshop at the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) 2019 AI for Good Global Summit to kick-off a poverty mapping iniative. The goal of the workshop was to share knowledge and make plans to better combine traditional development data (such as household surveys, labor force surveys and censuses) with complementary sources of big data (satellite, mobile phones, social media) towards achieving more accurate, timely and cost-effective measures of poverty. I led the organization of this project with my partners at the Qatar Computing Research Institute.
About one-tenth of the world’s population lives in extreme poverty (World Bank, 2018). The goal to “eradicate extreme poverty for all people everywhere by 2030” tops the list of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals adopted by world leaders, at the United Nations summit in September 2015. Regardless of the nature of the strategies used to reduce poverty, governments and development agencies need a baseline depiction. Poverty maps provide such a spatial distribution of the socio-economic deprivations and help policy makers assess the impact of interventions.
Poverty is traditionally estimated from national household surveys which are (i) expensive (~USD 1M), (ii) labour intensive and (iii) time-consuming (~12 to 20 months to complete). Consequently, poverty maps are generally available at low frequency (every 5 to 10+ years) and only representative at coarse granularity. For instance, between 2002 and 2011, among the 155 countries for which the World Bank monitors poverty data, 57 have only one or zero poverty data point available (Serajuddin, 2015).
On the other hand, non-traditional data sources such as mobile phone data (Blumenstock et al., 2015), satellite data (Jean et al., 2016, Engstrom et al., 2014) and social media data have demonstrated great potential for estimating poverty at low cost, more frequently and at high resolution. A few studies have also explored the combination of different data sources (in particular, mobile phone and satellite data) for poverty mapping, showing improved accuracy using complementary data sources (Njuguna et al., 2017, Steele et al., 2017 and Pokhriyal et al., 2017). However, there are still significant technical (bias, accuracy), practical (training data availability, data access) and ethical (individual and group privacy) challenges preventing the successful operationalization of these methods.
Report WebsiteDalberg Data Insights worked for GiveDirectly on a project to estimate poverty at the individual level using mobile phone data in Uganda. I guided the technical aspects of this project.

The Zipkin lab collaborated with Todd Arnold to use an integrated population model (IPM) to estimate population size and vital rates of the American woodcock (AMWO) using harvest data, band recovery data, and Singing Ground Surveys. We used an IPM framework to integrate multiple datatypes from AMWO and analyze them in conjunction. The results from our IPM reconcile discrepancies in inference from past studies that analyzed these datatypes independently.


## Capistrano
[![Build Status](secure.travis-ci.org/capistrano/capistrano.png)](http://travis-ci.org/capistrano/capistrano)
Capistrano is a utility and framework for executing commands in parallel on multiple remote machines, via SSH. It uses a simple DSL (borrowed in part from [Rake](rake.rubyforge.org/)) that allows you to define tasks, which may be applied to machines in certain roles. It also supports tunneling connections via some gateway machine to allow operations to be performed behind VPN’s and firewalls.
Capistrano was originally designed to simplify and automate deployment of web applications to distributed environments, and originally came bundled with a set of tasks designed for deploying Rails applications.
## Documentation
## DEPENDENCIES
- [Net::SSH](net-ssh.rubyforge.org)
- [Net::SFTP](net-ssh.rubyforge.org)
- [Net::SCP](net-ssh.rubyforge.org)
- [Net::SSH::Gateway](net-ssh.rubyforge.org)
- [HighLine](highline.rubyforge.org)
If you want to run the tests, you’ll also need to install the dependencies with Bundler, see the `Gemfile` within .
## ASSUMPTIONS
Capistrano is “opinionated software”, which means it has very firm ideas about how things ought to be done, and tries to force those ideas on you. Some of the assumptions behind these opinions are:
- You are using SSH to access the remote servers.
- You either have the same password to all target machines, or you have
public
keys in place to allow passwordless access to them.
Do not expect these assumptions to change.
## USAGE
In general, you’ll use Capistrano as follows:
- Create a recipe file (“capfile” or “Capfile”).
- Use the `cap` script to execute your recipe.
Use the `cap` script as follows:
cap sometask
By default, the script will look for a file called one of `capfile` or `Capfile`. The `someaction` text indicates which task to execute. You can do “cap -h” to see all the available options and “cap -T” to see all the available tasks.
## CONTRIBUTING:
- Fork Capistrano
- Create a topic branch - `git checkout -b my_branch`
- Rebase your branch so that all your changes are reflected in one commit
- Push to your branch - `git push origin my_branch`
- Create a Pull Request from your branch, include as much documentation as you can in the commit message/pull request, following these
[guidelines on writing a good commit message](spheredev.org/wiki/Git_for_the_lazy#Writing_good_commit_messages)
- That’s it!

Football: Pellegrini does not expect drastically different Spurs under Mourinho
REUTERS: West Ham United manager Manuel Pellegrini believes the arrival of Jose Mourinho as Tottenham Hotspur's new boss will have no immediate impact on the club's style of play although the Portuguese could eventually leave his mark on the team.
Pellegrini's side host Spurs on Saturday (Nov 21), a few days after the North London club sacked Mauricio Pochettino with the team 14th in the Premier League and replaced him with Mourinho.
"Mourinho is just in charge of the team for two days so I don't think he can change too much, they'll play in a similar way," Pellegrini told reporters.
Mourinho took over from the sacked Pellegrini as Real Madrid manager in 2010 but the Chilean said he had no hard feelings towards him and was only focused on arresting his own team's slide down the table.
West Ham, who are 16th, have not won a league match since beating Mourinho's former side Manchester United in September and are looking to end a run of two straight league defeats.
"He's not my friend but not my enemy either. Maybe I think a different way, but he's not my enemy. Everyone has their options to play football the way they want," Pellegrini added.
"Tottenham has a very good team with important players. You cannot know what has happened there but the results were not what they are used to having.
"That's not an important problem for us to solve, we must give a good performance as a team... the league this year is tight ... we must try to recover."

Ambient occlusion is a technique for approximating shadows when determining the ambient light component for local shading. This is done by casting several rays in a hemisphere around the normal from a incident ray's intersection point. The ambient light component is then divided by the number of these rays that actually intersect something in the scene.
The Monte Carlo ambient lighting technique already provides a mechanism for casting these rays in a hemisphere, so I leveraged that code. The only modification was simply counting the number of these rays that hit another object. I then divided the ambient lighting component by this count.
The reason that this works is because when a hemisphere of random rays are cast where two objects are close together, many of these rays will intersect with another object. This reduces the ambient contribution to local shading and provides a good approximation of shadows.
Below are some examples of the same image with and without ambient occlusion and monte carlo global illumination.
and here with some colors...

About
I was born in Moscow, but my parents took me to Germany (Jülich) when I was 7. Today I speak both Russian and German, English, and some French (badly). I did my Abitur in Karlsruhe, where I also was an undergraduate in physics. I took an excursion to the University of Oslo, where, after learning about physics in space, I decided to let go of Earth entirely and went on to study astrophysics at the University of Potsdam. I did my master's project at the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics in Potsdam on stellar flares in open clusters. Since the end of 2018 I have been a happy doctoral student, mostly supervised by
Katja Poppenhäger. I research stellar flares, and how they affect exoplanets.
My research interests include: stellar magnetic activity, (magnetic) star-planet interactions, and the solar-stellar connection. Otherwise I care about better science and institutions, practical ethics, equity and inclusion, green politics, and how humanity may survive the next couple of millenia and beyond.
I spend my leisure time reading, drinking coffee, meditating, listening to music, painting, dancing and walking around Potsdam. Many of these things are done while petting my cat Tom.
