| Abstract: | The Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), although inspired by HTTP, was designed to use UDP instead of TCP. The message layer of the CoAP over UDP protocol includes support for reliable delivery, simple congestion control, and flow control. Some environments benefit from the availability of CoAP carried over reliable transports such as TCP or TLS. This document outlines the changes required to use CoAP over TCP, TLS, and WebSockets transports. It also formally updates RFC 7641 for use with these transports. |

Here are some articles I found interesting that I've read recently:
- Workflow in Application Integration: Kevin Francis talks a bit about application integration architecture in the enterprise on the Architecture Journal 9. Despite the title, it doesn't really talk much about Workflow, but rather about the whole architectural perspective on integration.
- Commonwealth Bank of Australia CommSee Solution: An interesting look at a case study, in this case the CommSee application at the CBA. Part 1 focuses on the overall backend architecture for the application; Part 2 focuses on the front end: a Smart client Windows Forms application and Part 3 focuses on the infrastructure and development/test process.
A few other architecture case studies can be found here.
- Building Interoperable Insurance Systems with .NET 3.0 Technologies: An interesting case study on building an insurance system based on insurance standards (ACORD), WCF and Web Services, Windows Workflow Foundation, a smart client and BizTalk Server 2006. It also appears to use "SQL Server 2006" :-). Some really interesting bits here...

Verses
On the day of his resurrection.
Luke 24:1-51 View context
Now upon the first [day] of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain [others] with them.
And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.
And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:
And as they were afraid, and bowed down [their] faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead?
He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,
Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
And they remembered his words,
And returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.
It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary [the mother] of James, and other [women that were] with them, which told these things unto the apostles.
And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulchre; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.
And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem [about] threescore furlongs.
And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
And it came to pass, that, while they communed [together] and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
And he said unto them, What manner of communications [are] these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Art thou only a stranger in Jerusalem, and hast not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?
And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found [it] even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.
But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.
And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed [it], and brake, and gave to them.
And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.
And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?
And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,
Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
And they told what things [were done] in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace [be] unto you.
But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them [his] hands and [his] feet.
And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?

And he took [it], and did eat before them.
And he said unto them, These [are] the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and [in] the prophets, and [in] the psalms, concerning me.
Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
And ye are witnesses of these things.
And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.
Mark 16:9-19 View context
Now when [Jesus] was risen early the first [day] of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.
[And] she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.
After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.
And they went and told [it] unto the residue: neither believed they them.
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
At least eight days after his resurrection.
John 20:26 View context
And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: [then] came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace [be] unto you.
Many days after his resurrection.
Acts 13:31 View context
And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.
Forty days after his resurrection.
Acts 1:2-3 View context
Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:

I am a full time student pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Technology at Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, Campus Monterrey.
Although I have been able to work in companies with different challenges and scopes, I always try to learn new things besides what my day to day job requires.
I worked in the Firestore's Watch Team. My project consisted on optimizing the way queries with limits and offsets are processed. This lead to a decrease on filter latencies and a cleaner codebase. This was implemented mainly in C++. I designed several kind of tests to assess the correctness of the components, such as load tests, integration tests, ent-to-end tests and random tests. Most of these were written in Java.
I created a web system that improved the training process for a chatbot. Among the different processes that I integrated where the download of utterances, annotation of entities and the upload of annotations to the AI. This project was implmented using Ruby on Rails and consuming APIs from LUIS and Elastic Search.
I worked in the Optimization team for DoubleClick Search. I created the frontend and backend of two health detectors using Java, Dart, Protocol Buffers and BUILD files. My projects allow advertisers to know when a bid strategy is misconfigured, reducing unnecesary spend and creating awareness about misconfiguration.
I worked as a part-time intern at my college's information security department. I ran vulnerability scans and penetrataion tests for institutional websites and servers. I also had exposure to some incident response and monitoring.
After my brief experience in the industry, I think of myself as a backend engineer. I thrive for making things more efficient and clean. Although my experience as a backend engineer is not very extensive, some fields that I find interesting are programming languages, database internals, operative systems, networking and security.
I am always open to try new things, but I have found that backend is something that I really enjoy doing, and that I do well.
Java was the first language I learned, having used it for my projects at Google, school projects, hackathons and competitive programming; from .jar applications to android apps.
I have used C++ in my college courses. Most recently, I implemented the processing of limits and offsets for Firestore in C++, which has given my a great insight into the language.
I am relatively new to Python. I started using it to make scripts for my job as InfoSec intern in order to increase efficiency and automate tasks.
I used Angular-Dart alongside HTML and CSS to work on the frontend for my projects at Google. I am also experimenting with Dart as backend and frontend for personal projects.
Although I have no experience (yet) creating exploits, I know the basics of the Metasploit framework. It is one of the main tools I use when pentesting.
I have used Ruby on Rails both for work and personal projects. I consider myself as a beginner in this language and framework.
Below you will find my most relevant projects developed for school, work or just for fun. Most of them are on GitHub, so feel free to visit, use and modify the repositories.
A hackathon's project which takes images of passports as input and extracts the personal information contained in the alpha-numeric key. It was developed in a team of four. I worked more on the backend but also contributed to the frontend.
A script to make my work easier. It scans a list of websites in order to find wheter they use Joomla!, and if so, scans for vulnerabilities using Joomscan.
Winner hackathon project for a companie's challenge. Developed a bot to attend employees' FAQ's with the objective of reducing the number of calls to a call center. Included a dashboard to keep track of statistics related to the problems and questions employees have, plus performance stats. Developed using JavaScript, PHP, SQL and HTML. Used IBM's Watson for NLP and Telegram for the chat interface.
A web crawler created to retrieve data from shodan.io based on initial queries. Requires a valid shodan.io account to log in. Used the scrapy module for python.
A mobile applications course project. Alongside a group of teammates, I developed an Android application for a provider of ecotoursim trips. The app allows clients to browse the catalog and book trips. It also allows employees to manage bookings. It works in real time by using Firebase.


A screenshot of the partial output of the program LSITESYM, showing the characters of the subduced representations of the site-symmetry group of the Wyckoff position 2 c (0, ½, 0) of the layer group p4/ mmm (No. 61) at the k point M. The columns are specified by the symmetry operations of the site-symmetry group mmm ( cf. Fig. 1 ▸).


A very widespread trope in video games, especially in Side View, but can also be found in animations. All characters, no matter how slow they are otherwise, can turn their backs instantly. This is also due to difficulty constraints of implementing non-instant turning, making it one of the Acceptable Breaks from Reality.
In 2D games, it very often goes hand in hand with Ambidextrous Sprite. Even in several First Person Shooters (particularly on consoles), there may be a button which instantly turns the player by 180 degrees. It is also usually possible in 3D PC games to make a character spin dozens of revolutions per second with high mouse sensitivity, yet the character doesn't feel the effects of that. This trope dates to the second generation of video games, making it Older Than the NES.
When this trope is present in a multiplayer game, it is a good way to identify novices. If a player uses only keyboard controls they will turn at a slow fixed rate. Besides causing a severe maneuverability disadvantage, this is also obvious to other players and marks them as easy targets. It can also identify people using aimbots, as the code involved would cause the person using the aimbot to instantaneously lock on to the nearest enemy, even if it was behind the aimbotter.
Obviously not Truth in Television...unless you count the spin of an elementary particle, which can instantly rotate by 180 degrees (for quantum values of instantly, rotate, 180 and degrees).
Since this trope is ubiquitous, we list aversions instead of straight examples.
Aversions from video games
- Symphony of the Night is one of several Castlevania games to avert this. Alucard takes a few frames to turn around.
- Soma, Julius, Yoko, and Alucard do take a few frames to turn around in Dawn of Sorrow, as well.
- Albus, from Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia also has a turn around animation. Turning back and forth rapidly results in a wonderful moonwalking impression. Shanoa also has one.
- Charlotte and Jonathan in Portrait of Ruin too.
- Partially in play in The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. Whenever you board your train from a town, you have to select a destination, which determines the direction your train is facing, even if there's no possible way your train could have turned around at most of the stations. An Acceptable Break from Reality, because without it you might have to take a detour or travel backwards (which is much slower) to the nearest intersection just to turn around, making the train trips very annoying.
- The Tower Of Spirits, on the other hand, has an actual railroad turntable inside of it, so you always come out locomotive first.
- The GBA Metroid games avert this.
- Lara Croft uses an Unnecessary Combat Roll to turn 180 degrees; without it, turning around would require about a full second (too long for an action/adventure game).
- The main character from NieR slides to a halt before turning around.
- Ecco would always turn towards the camera as he switched between going left and going right.
- Alice: Madness Returns shows Alice practically teleporting around with a dramatic hair woosh when the player makes her turn to or away from the camera.
- In the Monster Hunter series, just walking around outside of a hunt plays this straight, but when running at any time, the hunter takes a second to turn around and start running. This has led to many a Rage Quit as a player attempts to avoid an attack coming from a specific direction, only for their hunter to take a moment to turn and build up speed and get pulverized by the incoming fireball/charge/hipcheck.
- The Atari 2600 version of Asteroids let the player activate a special power when pressing down on the joystick. By default, it's hyperspace (teleport randomly) but the player could replace that ability with a shield, instant 180 degree turns, or no special power at all.
- Moon Crystal had a smoothly animated sprite which actually turned slowly. However, controls suffered a bit due to that.
- Gene can flip around instantly in God Hand - which is good, because you're often surrounded. Notably, he does so by jumping in place and turning in midair.
- Super Smash Bros. has relatively quick turning animations, but also allows the player to execute attacks mid-turn, so the animation is mostly cosmetic. Though there are weird tricks such as Shellshifting...
- Played straight for Mr. Game & Watch for obvious reasons. Although it becomes averted when he's wielding a hammer in Melee as he can actually be seen slowly turning, likely due to a graphical oversight. This was fixed in subsequent games.
- Sonic Battle averted this. Which Fight Pose Emerl has equipped is usually a cosmetic choice (though Gamma's causes him to explode on death), but it does affect how quickly he turns around. Chaos's, for example, is painfully slow.
- Averted in the Deadliest Warrior videogame, to Spoony's chagrin. The game developers actually sent him a message about his complaints, saying that you don't make instant 180 degree turns in real life, and his response was "Yes you do! If someone is stabbing you in the back, I think you turn around pretty much instantaneously!"
- In order to equalize online multiplayer between mouse, keyboard and flightstick players, the Descent series has a fixed maximum turning rate. Though it's most like an FPS, this may have something to do with the fact that it also resembles a flight sim to a certain extent.
- Upcoming Interstellar Marines avert this and play it straight, at least in the playable demos that have been released so far.  You can freely pull off instant turns in midair after jumping though.
- In the original Unreal Tournament, increasing the difficulty level makes the bots capable of, among other things, turning around faster. On a moderately high level, they can do a full spin in less than a second; on the highest level (appropriately named "Godlike"), ambushing them becomes impossible as they gain instant turning and a 360° field of view that goes through walls.
- Left 4 Dead and its sequel include a controller binding for a 180 degree turn, a rarity on console games of this generation.
- On the Wii version of Medal of Honor: Vanguard, quickly tilting the nunchuk will turn 180 degrees.
- Averted from the first series in Armored Core, reflecting the size and the apparent difficulty maneuvering the titular Humongous Mecha. The turning problem (if you can call it a "problem"; most players simply grow to live with it) are sometimes mitigated by boosters that explicitly allows for quick turns. In the 4 series, the trope is played straight, in that side boosters can be used to perform quick turns.
- Players and NPCs can generally do this in World of Warcraft, so it is really obvious in the few situations where they can't. Several vehicles, such as vehicles on the Flame Leviathan encounter and mounts at the Argent Tournament, have a nonzero turning radius and time. It's generally the same as or close to the radius and time it would take for a player to turn if they used arrow keys, except that it can't be avoided by using the mouse.
- It is also actually possible to make other players feel the effects of such rapid spinning to a degree: if another player sits in a passenger seat of a mount, rapid spinning will be shared by them, but they will not be expecting it.
- Played straight in League of Legends but jarringly averted in Defense of the Ancients: All-Stars where using abilities and attacking behind you is noticeably delayed and even running away takes more time than expected, ensuring people coming from League will feed a lot at the start.
- Star Fox Adventures for Gamecube had the characters skid a moment and stop before turning around, sometimes causing a bit of frustration when avoiding enemies.
- Averted in the Prince of Persia games after The Sands of Time: walking in one direction and then attempting to walk in the opposite direction without stopping would result in the character skidding to a halt before turning around.
- Same goes for Assassin's Creed, but only if you're running or sprinting.
- Ditto the original 2D games, though this is a common trait of the Cinematic Platformer.
- Toki Tori averts this and has the added bonus of him getting dizzy if you use it to spin him around too quickly.
- Super Metroid had quite detailed animations for Samus, including turning animations for both standing up and crouching.
- Spelunky is a mixed case. While small characters turn around instantly, the larger ones take conveniently a bit longer to turn around.
- Due to the fact that Bunny Must Die! Chelsea and the 7 Devils has turning around as a powerup, it takes a few frames for her to turn around, and it feels just a bit sticky. However, turning around does make you momentarily invulnerable.
- In all Mario games, 2D or 3D, if you move in one direction and quickly slam the Control Stick in the opposite direction, Mario will skid a little; Luigi tends to skid more.
- The above also applies to all Sonic the Hedgehog games to date. Although, in the 2D games at least, it's played straight if you're standing still, or moving very slowly, or if you are forced to by springs (sometimes the two close together facing each other).
- In Sonic Unleashed, Sonic the Werehog not only does a full turning-around animation, but needs extra space for him to turn around in. This can result in some unintentional deaths if the player chooses to turn Sonic around when he's standing near a ledge he can't grab.
- Strangely, in Super Mario World, Mario plays this straight, but certain enemies like Koopa Troopas and the Koopalings take a moment to turn around.
- The above also applies to all Sonic the Hedgehog games to date. Although, in the 2D games at least, it's played straight if you're standing still, or moving very slowly, or if you are forced to by springs (sometimes the two close together facing each other).
- The ZX Spectrum game Zub has a three-frame turnaround animation that was added to justify the Ambidextrous Sprite.
- In Glider PRO, the glider goes through a few frames of spinning animation when reversing orientation. However, orientation has no mechanical importance except when shooting rubber bands.
- Partially averted in Iji: Turrets, shredders and Iji herself have turnaround animations, while other enemies don't.
- In Jaleco's City Connection, it takes a few frames for the player's car to wheel itself around, but it's still improbably fast and automatic. In fact, it's still possible to execute instant 180-degree turns in midair.
- In Battlefleet Gothic: Armada, the huge spaceships you command definitely have turning radii, some of which are huge... But the Eldar have an upgrade for their ships that can allow this. Given their hit-and-run nature and relatively-fragile ships, it's quite a useful ability.
- In the Star Trek: Starfleet Command series, this is a tactical maneuver called a "High Energy Turn". The downside is that using it can damage a ship and even cause it to suffer a breakdown, leaving it helpless for several seconds. Typically, the larger ships are more prone to malfunctions when performing this maneuver.
- The Elder Scrolls:
- Daggerfall's mobile NPCs and monsters display their sprites from various angles. As programmed, this allows them to turn around and turn corners. In practice, they always run right at the PC against corners and walls and, depending on the speed of the computer, appear to turn around instantaneously when approached from behind.
- Despite being 3D games, Morrowind and Oblivion still contain instances where AI controlled characters will do this.
- The Paper Mario series lampshades this trope almost the entire game, where if you do an instant 180-degree turn (or an object does) it shows the object or person literally turning over as if you were flipping the piece of paper over instead of turning it around in a more real-life way. This looks especially funny when long trains and such perform this, as it takes forever for it to turn around in the first place.
- The Wild ARMs games were notable for averting this; despite being sprites, turning in various directions will use animation.
- Dragon Quest IX uses a touch screen to control the Celestial Express, so the train will gradually turn to follow the stylus. Even with a directional pad it will gradually turn to face the direction of the pad.
- Somewhat unusually for an educational game that predates Legend of Zelda, Tonk in the Land of the Buddy-Bots featured fairly fluid turning animations that did take a beat to do. Considering the tight timing necessary in parts of the higher levels, it could make a difference.
- Present in all Final Fantasy games up until Final Fantasy XIII, where characters turn realistically.
- Elasto Mania and its prequel had the main character along with the body of the motorbike turn although the wheels remain intact although their front wheel and rear wheel roles are reversed.
- When using the third-person Free Rotating Camera mode in Thief: Deadly Shadows, Garrett not only can't turn around quickly, but actually can't even turn around in-place (as one would in first-person view): he has to make a realistic (or "realistic") couple of steps in a small circle, which can mean death on a narrow ledge.
- The main character of Resident Evil 4 walks slow, but can turn around quickly. Thank goodness for this feature, it is easy enough to get stuck in the middle of group of enemies.
- The quick-spin was first seen in Resident Evil 3: Nemesis. Since the series uses tank-style controls, this was quickly seen as a blessing, and every game since has implemented it (including the Gamecube remake of Resident Evil).
- When Leon (or Chris or Sheva) performs the 180 quick turn, he actually takes a step behind himself, with his foot turned almost all the way opposite from the direction he was originally facing. This is the fastest and most efficient way to turn around, showing that someone did the research, nice it's not generally a natural movement.
- Annoyingly averted in Rule of Rose where Jennifer must actually walk a small circle to turn around; turning on the spot simply isn't possible in this game. Really annoying in the Mermaid Princess bossfight where you must avoid the titular monster's corrosive vomit, and more often than not end up walking straight into it when you direct Jennifer to run away.
- An actual Ability of Soldiers/Tanks in Transformers: War for Cybertron, who can instantly switch to a backwards pointing position. This, combined with tanks having a powerful cannon, let tanks outmanuveur faster foes like Scouts/Cars. Needless to say, spinning 180 without a rearview mirror and snap-shotting an enemy is very much Difficult, but Awesome.
- In Jagged Alliance, characters take Time Units to turn. In Jagged Alliance 2, they may automatically turn as they raise their weapon as you enter view.
- Averted by the X-COM series despite battles being turn-based. Soldiers have to use Time Units to turn in place and it is quite possible to spend an entire turn just twirling around or, more likely, come up a few TUs short of being able to take a shot because you had to turn to face the enemy. On the other hand, it is one of the very very few actions that do not trigger Reaction attacks from aliens looking at you.
- The same is true in its Spiritual Successor, Xenonauts.
- The freeware game Sane features a version of this, with instant turns only possible if the character isn't moving, or moving very slowly. If the character has built up some speed, when the player tries to turn around, they have to skid to a stop first.

Top-level Functions
callback()
namespace event { CallbackPtr callback(std::function<base::Result()> f); template <typename Function, typename... Args> CallbackPtr callback(Function&& f, Args&&... args); }
STABLE. Allocates and constructs a new event::Callback
value. The first variant accepts a std::function
object;
the second variant captures the given functor and arguments, which may
be of move-only types.
Callback
namespace event { class Callback { public: virtual ~Callback() noexcept = default; virtual base::Result run() = 0;Callback(const Callback&) = delete;Callback(Callback&&) = delete;Callback& operator=(const Callback&) = delete;Callback& operator=(Callback&&) = delete;}; using CallbackPtr = std::unique_ptr<Callback>; }
STABLE. event::Callback
is an abstract base class for
one-shot callbacks having the function signature
base::Result(void)
.
Why have event::Callback
, when C++11's
std::function
already exists? Since Callback
is specialized for the case
of one-shot callbacks, it becomes possible to build closures over
move-only values, which is not possible with standard C++11 function
objects.
Callback::run()
Invokes the callback. MUST NOT be called more than once.

Femi Otedola: ‘People think when they die, they take their money with them’
Olaitan Ganiu
Business mogul, Femi Otedola, has revealed why he donated N5 billion to a charity in Abuja.
The billionaire, earlier this month, gave out N5 billion to the Save The Children charity in support of its intervention in the Northeast. The donation through his daughter at the ball organised by the Cuppy Foundation.
Save The Children is the 100-year-old United Kingdom-based charity. It is the biggest children-focused organisation in the world after UNICEF.
Speaking on why he donated the whopping amount, Otedola said he has taken risk, achieved success and recognition in life.
“A lot of people think when they die, they take their money with them, we’ll see,” said the Executive Chairman of Geregu Power Plc.
“In my journey of life, I have taken the risk, I’ve done the chase, I’ve enjoy the thrill and I have achieved success and recognition. What next? You give it back.”


My research is in the areas of stochastic control and deterministic filtering on matrix Lie groups. I am also interested in reinforcement learning and in risk-averse decision making.
I was a postgraduate researcher with the Department of Attitude and Orbit Control System at Airbus Defence and Space (Friedrichshafen). Prior to that, I received my MSc from the 3ME's Delft Center of Systems and Control (DCSC) at TU Delft where I worked with Prof. Bart De Schutter. I graduated from the Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Patras being advised by Prof. George Bitsoris and Prof. Thanos Stouraitis.


A character makes a derogatory statement about a group of people, then realizes that his or her statement includes either one of his or her friends or him or herself, and qualifies the statement with "Present company excluded." A variation on the Verbal Backspace.
This is often used in passing as a throw-away gag, although occasionally more conflict might stem from it; the character it was unintentionally aimed at might still be insulted (especially if the prejudice was a long running thing), or if the sub-text seems to suggest that the speaker really did mean to offend. Often, though, the character won't seem to mind.
Examples:
- In the Dragonball Z fanfic Honor Trip, there's this exchange from Chapter 49:
"Now, at last, all of those damn androids are dead." Upon realizing exactly what he had said, Trunks turned to directly face Cell, and grinned. "No offense, of course," Trunks said. "Of course none is taken," Cell said, with a humble grin as well.
- The Pieces Lie Where They Fell: In the sequel Picking up the Pieces, griffon Doctor Gregory says "Damn Equestrians", then realizes Night (a Nox Pony from Equestria) is right there. Night isn't offended though, since he feels the same way about the specific Equestrians being referred to.
- My Little Pony: Totally Legit Recap: Lampshaded in the recap for Rainbow Rocks.
Rainbow Dash: Woah, wait, hold on, is Sunset Shimmer gonna do something useful? No offense.

Rainbow Dash: You're fundamentally inadequate! No offense.
- In Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, the mayor refers to the population of the town as "sardine-sucking knucklescrapers."
Brent: But not me, right?
Mayor: Oh, not you, Brent. No, you've always been Like a Son to Me. - Quickly deconstructed by Bunnymund in Rise of the Guardians when Jack has a minor Rage Against the Heavens.
Jack: No, [becoming a guardian] is NOT for me! [turns to the others] No offense.
Bunny: How is that not offensive?!
- The Mummy, when Jonathan is complaining about the Americans in Hamunaptra, while Rick O'Connell is digging.

Rick: None taken.
Jon: We'll dig our way up and steal that book right out from under them.
Rick: Are you sure you can find this secret compartment thing?
Evie: Oh, yes, if those beastly Americans haven't beaten us to it, no offense.
Rick: None taken. - In Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, one of the Klingons describes The Federation as a "Homo Sapiens-only club", and another glances at Spock and adds, "Present company excepted."
- Used in Master and Commander, after Jack calls for his ship to spill the wind from his sheets, and act lubberly and panicky, like a whaler might (in order to capture the ship they are chasing). With the captain of a whaler who'd been captured by, had the ship he'd been out for two years on burnt to the waterline, and left on a small boat in the middle of nowhere to die by said enemy ship standing right beside him.
- Comes up in the 2004 remake of The Manchurian Candidate, when Ben Marco approaches Raymond Shaw.
Raymond Shaw: Who would I ask? My old Army "buddies," who love and adore me for saving their pathetically unimportant — present company excluded — asses?
- Averted in Lois McMaster Bujold's novel Barrayar, during Cordelia's first meeting with the Dowager Princess Kareen:
"There have to be bright women around here somewhere, with all these bright men. Where are they hiding?" Cordelia shut her mouth, as it suddenly occurred to her that Kareen might mistakenly construe this remark as a slur on herself. Adding present company excepted would put her foot in it for sure, though.
- Discworld:
- Night Watch'': The revolutionaries on the street are rather confused when Commander Vimes comes up to talk to them, instead of forming ranks against them. Reg Shoe's lone cry of "Death to the Fascist oppressors!" is quickly amended to "Death to the Fascist oppressors, present company excepted."
- Guards! Guards! has a bit where one of the members of the council says that the dragon who's been made king of Ankh-Morpork shouldn't have to waylay people "like some common assassin" and the head of the Assassins' Guild says "Excuse me?" This makes perfect sense, because there is nothing common about the Assassins.
- The Legend of Drizzt has a few instances of this when Drizzt and his allies face off against other members of Drizzt's species. Drizzt generally isn't offended when people add the qualifier in haste, though he does care when people deliberately avoid giving a qualifier.

Spock: I see.
McCoy: ...I mean that it's odd for a non-Vulcan. - In Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, when General Xaviax possesses the comatose body of Kamen Rider Wrath, he muses to his loyal right-hand man, JTC/Kamen Rider Strike, that "Things would have been much simpler if I could have manipulated all the Earth Riders this way.

- Had private dermatologist appointment—she was incredible. After weeks and weeks now of not being able to get ahold of a doctor it was incredible to sit face to face with one. It took 7 or so weeks to book this appointment though so I didn't actually have any more dermatological symptoms to show.
- But she was so understanding and said my situation this year was harrowing. She commended the research I've done, documents I've collated or created and doctors that I've spoken to. She was shocked how little attention I'm getting from the NHS right now.
- Related, I found out the NHS didn't prescribe me enough steroids to make it to my next check-in so I've just had to decrease my dose myself. I tried to call and talk to someone about it but that of course was fruitless.
- The side-effects of decreasing suck.
 It's hard to explain how it feels to be ill for so long, on your own, and despite doing everything you're supposed to do and can do, not only having doctors out of reach but making things worse.
- I'm going to go back to Georgia for a couple of weeks to have my family look after me as I (presumably) start officially weaning off the steroids after the 25th.
- My old landlord's wife stepped in and paid back my deposit in full. My landlord—who breached our contract in 2 major ways—called me—who despite everything else going on, breached nothing—"nasty" for holding him to the terms of our contract. And he still got off easy as I could have claimed up to 3x the deposit for his breaches.
- Good-riddance! Finally he's out of my life and I'm fully my own landlord now.
- I've decide to re-commit myself to English football this season. I bought a membership to Brentford FC. Bees!
- I went to my new local pub (3 min walk!) to be brave and watch a football match on my own (not only is it complicated to watch them at home here because of channel subscriptions but not even all pubs have the subscriptions either). The night ended with staff having to kick a guy out for being creepy to me and a bartender walking me home.
- Can I catch a break, please?

Ruby Hashes vs. JavaScript Objects
---Week 7
- Well JavaScript objects are in many ways very similar to Ruby’s Hash class, except for using the dot notation for property look-up. This is easily simulated Ruby’s method_missing to dynamically simulate getters and setters.
- You can not access these instance variables in the same way that you can access (read or write to) JS properties. Ruby enforces a level of data encapsulation which protects these variables. Only when you are within the context of an object, which occurs during a method call, you can create or alter instance variables.
- Ruby is a class based language, whereas JS is not (although you can achieve level of class like behaviour). In Ruby, every object has an associated class.
- The essential difference is that JS does not restrict access to properties. The language itself does not support any data encapsulation on objects directly. That does not mean you can not achieve this in other ways however through function scopes acting as modules. Ruby on the other hand enforces a certain level of data encapsulation by not providing a simple way to access its internal instance variables. You have to enter the object’s context through a method call to operate on instance variable


I'm head of Android development for Kamino d.o.o., a mobile development agency focused on producing high quality mobile apps. In this role I lead team of developers working on variety of Android project. My job, beside usual Android development is to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to producing high quality mobile apps. I try to scope out new technologies, come up with new ideas how to optimize development process and share that knowledge with coworkers.
Beside sharing my knowledge internally I also like to create and contribute to open source project. One of the biggest is ButterProject/PopcornTime that allows user to stream video content to their preferred device. Other projects are anything from custom UI components for Android application to tools/plugins that make life for developers easy. Majority of them can be found at my Github account.
Alongside open source projects I also like to do public speaking on different types of events. In past few years I have had talks internally for coworkers, on local and international meetups/conferences and on Faculty of Computer and Information Science in Ljubljana. I also had a 16 lecture long class on introductory Android development in cooperation with SmartNija.
Before Kamino, I was senior/lead Android developer at Fika, that was a startup focusing on making calendar experience nicer on mobile.

COURAGE UNDER FIRE A film review by Scott Renshaw Copyright 1996 Scott Renshaw
Starring: Denzel Washington, Meg Ryan, Lou Diamond Phillips, Michael Moriarty, Matt Damon, Scott Glenn. Screenplay: Patrick Sheane Duncan. Director: Edward Zwick. Reviewed by Scott Renshaw.
Akira Kurosawa's classic film RASHOMON may be the definitive cinematic text for film critics, because no film may work better at keeping us honest. The story of an assault seen through the eyes of four different individuals is about the subjectivity of reality, how perception creates "truth," and every time I think about RASHOMON it makes me structure my arguments with care, and with an eye to my own subjectivity. I was thinking about RASHOMON quite a bit as I watched COURAGE UNDER FIRE, and not just because it is about conflicting accounts of a single event. Throughout the film, I found my perspective shifting, my opinion rising and falling to the point where I realized that I was responding to COURAGE UNDER FIRE in pieces, and not as a whole.
That response was at least in part the result of the kind of film COURAGE UNDER FIRE is, the kind of ambitious, sprawling drama which director Edward Zwick (GLORY, LEGENDS OF THE FALL) has favored since his television days as co-creator of "thirtysomething." It is the story of Lt. Col. Nat Serling (Denzel Washington), a tank commander in the Gulf War who, in the middle of a confusing night battle, gives an order to fire which results in the destruction of a friendly tank, and the death of a close friend. Serling is re-assigned to the Pentagon, where he is given the task of investigating a posthumous candidate for the Medal of Honor -- Capt. Karen Walden (Meg Ryan), the first woman ever nominated for the award. The story is that helicopter pilot Walden led a rescue mission which saved several lives, but that story is an inconsistent one. Serling's interviews with Walden's crew lead to more questions than answers in a quest for an evasive truth.
Reaction #1: Edward Zwick is turning into a marvelous director of battle scenes. In GLORY, LEGENDS, and now in COURAGE UNDER FIRE, he captures the feel of war with a chaotic poetry, vistas of destruction which are nevertheless spectacular to behold. Perhaps more impressive, Zwick has accomplished something that the news was never able to accomplish, namely to drive home the fact that the Gulf War was not a video game or a casual police activity like rousting a wino off a park bench with a baton. It was a war, and COURAGE UNDER FIRE does justice to the sacrifices of its participants.
Reaction #2: Patrick Sheane Duncan over-loaded his screenplay. For a very long time, it is not clear what COURAGE UNDER FIRE is really about. Is it a war-time tale of the terrors of the trenches? Is it a domestic drama focusing on Serling's profound guilt over his actions in the Gulf and his inability to re-connect with his family? Is it an attack on the inability of the military, and by extension the nation, to own up to its mistakes? Is it a sort of mystery, where the real story of Walden's actions will provide the payoff? It takes forever for Duncan to clarify what all of these stories have to do with one another, but by then they don't provide the layers of emotional resonance he was aiming for; mainly, they provide confusion. There are too many conflicts in COURAGE UNDER FIRE, blunting the impact of the one which should have stirred the audience.
Reaction #3: Meg Ryan really does have some dramatic chops. In previous serious efforts like WHEN A MAN LOVES A WOMAN and RESTORATION, I found it difficult to buy Ryan in a role which strayed from her quirky comic ingenues.  She appears only in flashback, and her character develops only as Serling learns more about her, but she is nevertheless a powerful presence in the film.
Reaction #4: Denzel Washington has his limits. Washington is a tremendous actor, and he does some excellent work in COURAGE UNDER FIRE, but there are moments when the intelligence and confidence he almost always projects just don't seem appropriate. Serling has moments of real despair and confusion, and Washington doesn't always bring those qualities across.
Reaction #5: COURAGE UNDER FIRE comes through with an emotional conclusion, and features some great supporting performances (particularly Matt Damon as the medic in Walden's crew). It is the kind of film which satisfies even as it leaves you suspecting that the scope should have been narrowed. COURAGE UNDER FIRE is a film which looks better from the back than the front, and a bit thick around the middle -- it's a different experience from different angles.
On the Renshaw scale of 0 to 10 RASHOMONs to judgment: 7.

Maven 3 support in the native maven plugin has been integrated in 1.392
Documentation in progress
Introduction
Maven 2 support in Hudson is still experimental, but many users rely on it. Maven 3 comes now with first beta available, we have to consider support in Hudson as many things changed and it cannot be integrated to Hudson the way Maven 2 was.
Maven support in Hudson
Maven 2 support in Hudson is a two-phase process :
- Read project POM(s), build the module tree assuming dependencies ordering, and setup jobs for thoses modules
- Run maven build on modules
In early stages, First step was built on Maven Embedder, but this strategy failed due to lack of support for settings and other issues. The project POMs are now parsed by Hudson using maven model API.
Second step uses a hack to create the classloader hierarchy expected by Maven, but include Hudson tweaks (custom plexus components, plugin filters, phase listeners) so that Hudson can monitor the build. As a result, some maven builds in hudson can behave strangely compared to command line maven (JIRA issues #?).
Why do we have to integrate Maven into Hudson?
What is the main benefit for integrating Mavens internal structures into Hudson? What do Hudson gain from that compared to viewing Maven as a black box and just make sure that Hudson can install and find Maven 3 and call it's target as any user would do?
Better feedback
Many maven projects are built as multi-module projects. Running the build as a black-box process with a single success/failure status gives few feedback on build status. By analyzing the POM and modules, Hudson can display status per module, with related links to test failures and other reporting stuff. Hudson can also setup the maven options to only build modules that are related to last commit and the dependent ones (incremental build option) OR build modules in parallel fo a quicker build.
Possible improvements to Maven 3 support
Project analyzis
This step can take advantage of new Maven 3 API and "build plan" (doc) to get a clean view of the project structure, without dependency on maven internals. Using such API the Maven version and configuration used to analyze the project and to run the build will be the same
Running maven 3 build
This step requires a better isolation from Hudson JVM with less changes to Maven runtime.
Maven 3 has cleaner APIs and support for listeners (used in maven parallel build, to be confirmed|link to doc?). Running the Maven3 build as a standalone JVM - like freestyle projects in hudson - will make it more compliant to standard Maven build. The forked JVM just has to include a Hudson dedicated listener to send back build notifications to Hudson JVM, but the JVM running Maven will require no other hack.
Change in Hudson Plugins for maven 3
@since 1.392 MavenBuildProxy has a new method getMavenVersion() which returns a bean MavenBuildInformation.
This bean returns the maven version used for this build with the method String getMavenVersion().
Here you are able to know if you are using maven 2 or later with this piece of code :
public boolean maven3orLater(String mavenVersion) { // null or empty so false ! if (StringUtils.isBlank( mavenVersion )) { return false; } return new ComparableVersion (mavenVersion).compareTo( new ComparableVersion ("3.0") ) >= 0; }
So now all MavenReporter knows the maven version used.
If you are modifying the mojo execution in your maven reporter you have to take care of the following change to (see related issues : JENKINS-8415, JENKINS-8362 )
See relative commit https://github.com/jenkinsci/jenkins/commit/3f2ab68b248a8104053227b074221937f7ab3176
Now in order to change (when your build is maven 3), you must play with the mojo configuration available with :
mojo.mojoExecution.getConfiguration() This is a Xpp3Dom now (previously it was a XmlPlexusConfiguration )


Here is some of my photographs for you to look through. If you have any questions refer to the Contacts page.

Constants
Fuel has four constants in the global namespace to direct you to important directories. Fuel uses them internally to locate classes and other files. These constants are set in public/index.php.
Note: When you move any of fuel's prime folders (app, core, public, packages) be sure to update your index.php to direct fuel to the right paths.
| Key | Description |
|---|---|
| APPPATH | Path to the application directory (/path/to/fuel/app). This is where your application directories and code reside. |
| COREPATH | Path to the core directory (/path/to/fuel/core). This is where all the Fuel classes live. |
| DOCROOT | Path to the location where the 'startup script' is. For your web application, path to the public directory (/path/to/public). This is where index.php resides. Everything accessible to user lives and is accessible via the browser. For oil command, path to where oil command resides. |
| PKGPATH | Path to the packages directory (/path/to/fuel/packages). This is where your packages are installed (when installed through oil). |
| VENDORPATH | Path to the composer root directory (/path/to/fuel/vendor). This is where your composer installs the libraries downloaded from packagist.org. |
Note: When you use the Oil package, you have to make the same changes in the 'oil' file in the docroot of your website.
Note: When you want to run unit tests, you have to make the same changes in the 'phpunit.xml' file in the fuelphp core folder.

Make this butternut squash quiche with festive Stilton and membrillo for an unforgettable vegetarian Christmas.
Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.
Toss the squash in a bowl with the oil, a pinch of salt and black pepper. Spread out on a baking tray and roast for 30 minutes, or until golden-brown, turning once. Set aside to cool.
Roll out the pastry on a floured work surface, roughly 3mm thick, and transfer it to a 24cm/9½in quiche tin. When lining, leave some pastry hanging over the edge. Prick the base of the pastry with a fork and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 160C/140C Fan/Gas 3. Line the pastry case with baking parchment, fill with baking beans and cook for 30-35 minutes. Remove the beans and paper, and cook for a further 10 minutes, or until the pastry is golden-brown. Increase the oven temperature to 180C/160 Fan/Gas 4.
Spread the squash over the pastry base, dot the Stilton between, and sprinkle the membrillo all over.
Place the eggs, cream and crème fraîche in a mixing bowl with a pinch of salt and some black pepper. Whisk together and pour over the squash, leaving some of the filling exposed. Place in the oven for about 40 minutes, or until the egg mixture has set. Leave to rest, then remove from the tin and keep warm or allow to cool to room temperature.
Meanwhile for the pomelo, place the sugar, cinnamon and star anise in a small saucepan with 100ml/3½fl oz of water and bring to a light simmer. Cook for 1 minute, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat, stir in 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice and set aside to cool.
 Segment the fruit, making sure to remove all the white membrane. Break into bite sized pieces and put in a shallow bowl. Pour the sugar syrup over the pomelo and leave to marinate for at least an hour, stirring occasionally. Remove the cinnamon and star anise and strain the pomelo reserving the juices.
For the sprouts, increase the oven to 220C/200C Fan/ Gas Mark 7. Halve the sprouts lengthways and cut the shallots so that they are similar size to the sprouts. Put in a baking tray with 3 tablespoons of the oil, ½ tablespoon of salt and some black pepper. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until the sprouts are golden brown but still retain a bite. Set aside to cool.
Just before serving, put the shallots, sprouts, pomelo and coriander in a large mixing bowl. Add the remaining olive oil and lemon juice, plus 1 tablespoon of the reserved pomelo syrup and ¼ tablespoon of salt. Gently mix, season to taste, you may wish to add another tablespoon of the pomelo syrup.
Slice the quiche and serve alongside the Brussels sprouts.
