If you do not want to use Cloud9 to follow along with the Node parts of this course, you can instead install Node locally on your computer. If you're set on installing locally, I still highly recommend you use Cloud9 because it's what I'll be using in the videos, and it's easier to get help when you have bugs. If you're still set on installing locally, follow these instructions:
Visit https://nodejs.org/en/download/ and download the version of Node that corresponds to your operating system and specific machine. Once the download is complete, open up the package and run the installer.
To verify the install, open up your command line and try running:
node -v
If you see any version number (doesn't really matter which version), you're good to go! If you get an error message instead, the installation may not have worked. Post on the discussion board to get some help.


Volcanic eruption creates one new Pacific island, sinks another
by James RogersA volcanic undersea eruption has created an island in the Pacific Ocean near Tonga while sinking another small island nearby.
The former island of Lateiki is now submerged, according to the news website Matangi Tonga. The website reports, citing geologist Taaniela Kula, that the new Lateiki island is about 328 feet wide and 1,312 feet long. The new island appeared 394 feet west of its smaller, now submerged predecessor.
The earlier Lateiki island first appeared in 1995.
AN ENTIRE HAWAIIAN ISLAND HAS VANISHED BENEATH THE WAVES
On Monday, GeoNet, a collaborative initiative between the New Zealand government’s Earthquake Commission and GNS Science, tweeted out satellite images of the area.
“Since mid-Oct we’ve been tracking the #Lateiki (#Metis Shoal) #eruption with satellite imagery. By Nov 1 an elongated island has appeared at the main focus of activity,” it said.
The “1995 dome,” or the former Lateiki island, “appears to have gone,” it explained.

Listening to too much Christmas music is bad for your health, psychologist claims
Good news for all the Grinches out there!
by Rebecca CarterThis may be music to many people's ears out there: Christmas tunes may be bad for your health, apparently.
A psychologist has claimed that listening to too much festive tracks can actually cause stress triggers.
British clinical psychologist Linda Blair said that listening to Christmas music on loop in the car or at stores reminds people of all their daily stresses.

Stores are beginning to introduce their Christmas playlists but Blair said that retail workers are most at risk of being mentally drained by the songs.
She said that more prolonged exposure to the tunes causes a mental strain for employees and irritates shoppers.
Blair told Sky News: "It might make us feel that we’re trapped. Music goes right to our emotions immediately and it bypasses rationality. [So] It’s a reminder that we have to buy presents, cater for people and organise celebrations."
Speaking about retail workers, she added: "People working in the shops at Christmas have to [tune out] Christmas music because if they don’t, it really does stop you from being able to focus on anything else.
"You’re simply spending all of your energy trying not to hear what you’re hearing."
Meanwhile, if you're a fan of Jingle Bells, Last Christmas and We Wish You A Merry Christmas, you may want to pick up B&M's £4.99 doormat sensor which plays festive songs.
The sensor detects when someone stands on a doormat and starts playing Christmas songs.
One shopper posted about the find on the Facebook group Extreme Couponing & Bargains UK and laughed: "This is amazing, lol."
They shared a clip of the sensor to show off some of the tunes shoppers can expect to hear if they bag one for themselves.

In the video, posted on Monday (11.11.19), the sensor is heard playing a rendition of We Wish You A Merry Christmas followed by Jingle Bells.
According to the back of the packaging, the sensor is placed under a doormat and comes with an upright speaker to be positioned nearby.

PyObjC is built and installed using the distutils package included with Python
2.0 and beyond. distutils provides a single interface for building and
packaging the PyObjC via a setup.py
script. To see usage documentation
for setup.py
, issue the --help
command:
% python setup.py --help
To see an inventory of building and packaging commands, issue the command:
% python setup.py --help-commands
The following command will build and open a binary installer for PyObjC, py2app, tools, examples, and documentation:
% python setup.py bdist_mpkg --open
When multiple versions of Python are installed, the above examples
will use the default interpreter. Unless you have changed your
PATH
environment variable, this will be the Python interpreter
that ships with Mac OS X. To use PyObjC with an alternate Python
interpreter, specify it explicitly or manipulate your PATH
such that the location of the Python interpreter comes before
/usr/bin
.
Note that there is a known bug in Python 2.3.0 (as shipped with Mac OS X 10.3), such that when another framework Python is installed it will not link extensions (such as PyObjC) properly, rendering them unusable. If you intend to build PyObjC for Python 2.3.0, first install the PantherPythonFix package from pythonmac.org packages.
If you have a previous version of PyObjC installed, you may see an exception
such as Wrong version of PyObjC C API
. If this happens, you should
delete any previous installation of PyObjC and the build folder in your
new sources and try again. PyObjC will typically be installed to a folder
of the same name in /Library/Python/2.3
or
/Library/Python/2.3/site-packages
.
When using Mac OS X 10.2, you must install the WebKit SDK from the ADC website in order to build or use the WebKit wrapper.
The examples directory contains a number of projects that demonstrate various features of the PyObjC bridge. The scripts at the top level of the examples directory were mostly written to test a particular feature of the bridge (or document a bug until a fix could be found).
CurrencyConverter and TableModel are both examples of standalone Cocoa-Python applications. To build and execute:
% cd TableModel % python setup.py py2app % open dist/TableModel.app
The preferred method for building the examples is to use a py2app-based setup.py, as above. Some examples may also have an Xcode (.xcode) or Project Builder (.pbproj) project file, but these may be out of date.
All of the examples are always installed whether or not the target operating system supports them. If an example fails to run due to a ImportError, it is likely that the example is intended for a newer version of Mac OS X.
The Xcode
directory contains some file and project that make it easier to
work with Python and PyObjC when using Xcode.
For documentation on these templates, see Xcode-Templates.html
Normally these Xcode templates are installed with PyObjC by the package installer.
If doing development, you may copy or symlink them to the appropriate places in
/Library/Application Support/Apple/Developer Tools/
.
The Project Builder templates are out of date and unsupported. You should use py2app exclusively when developing on Mac OS X 10.2.
The ProjectBuilder Extras
directory contains additional files that can
be used with Project Builder. The directory Specifications
contains files
that enable syntax coloring for Python files in Project Builder.
The Project Templates
directory contains project templates for
Project Builder. These have to be copied to
/Developer/ProjectBuilder Extras/Project Templates/Application
before
they are useable from Project Builder.
There are three templates available:
A project created from this template is designed to implement standalone, pure-Python, applications that are compatible with Apple's build of Python as well as all other builds of python that support PyObjC.
When building the 'install' target, the resulting application wrapper will include the PyObjC module and can be launched on any stock OS X 10.2 system without requiring PyObjC to be preinstalled.
A project created from this template includes an embedded framework project into which all compiled (Objective-C) code can be placed. Upon launch, the application automatically dynamically loads the embedded framework containing the compiled code.
Each Framework's Resources directory is automatically added to sys.path.
This template works like the Cocoa-Python Application template in that it is compatible with the Apple build of Python. It creates an application that uses Cocoa's Multiple Document Architecture in the same fashion as the default Cocoa Document-based Application supplied with Project Builder.
More information on project templates can be found in the Project Builder documentation and/or release notes.


Take a look how to start using it.
To easily access the list of workspaces the Workspaces extension icon should be always visible. Open the Extensions menu, navigate to the Workspaces item and click the Pin icon next to it.
If you prefer keyboard, you can always open the Workspaces menu using Alt + W (on Windows) or ⌥ + W (on Mac).
Create a workspace for school subject, personal project, gift idea, vacation plan, or others. All tabs in the workspace are automatically saved. When you open the workspace again tabs are restored to the state where you had left off.
Please note that Tab Groups are not supported by the extension since they are used to mark individual Workspaces.

generate-mapping
: Auto-generating D2RQ mapping filesThe generate-mapping
tool creates a
D2RQ mapping file by
analyzing the schema of an existing database. This mapping file, called the
default mapping, maps each table to a new RDFS class that
is based on the table's name, and maps each column to a property based
on the column's name. This mapping file can be used as-is or can be customized.
generate-mapping [-u user] [-p password] [-d driver] [-l script.sql] [--[skip-](schemas|tables|columns) list] [--w3c] [-v] [-b baseURI] [-o outfile.ttl] [--verbose] [--debug] jdbcURL
jdbcURL
JDBC connection URL for the database. Refer to your JDBC driver documentation for the format for your database engine. Examples:
MySQL: jdbc:mysql://servername/databasename
PostgreSQL: jdbc:postgresql://servername/databasename
Oracle: jdbc:oracle:thin:@servername:1521:databasename
HSQLDB: jdbc:hsqldb:mem:databasename
(in-memory database)
Microsoft SQL Server: jdbc:sqlserver://servername;databaseName=databasename
(due to the semicolon, the URL must be put in quotes when passed as a command-line argument in Linux/Unix shells)
If -l
is present, then the JDBC URL can be
omitted to load a SQL script into an in-memory HSQLDB database. See
example.
-u user
-p password
-d driver
The fully qualified Java class name of the database driver.
For MySQL, PostgreSQL, and HSQLDB, this argument can be omitted as drivers
are already included with D2RQ. For other databases, a driver has to be
downloaded from the vendor or a third party. The jar file containing
the JDBC driver class has to be in D2RQ's /lib/db-drivers/
directory. To find the driver class name,
consult the driver documentation. Examples:
Oracle: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
Microsoft SQL Server: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
-l script.sql
d2rq:startupSQLScript
property of the database in the generated mapping will be initialized with the same value.--schemas
, --tables
, --columns
, --skip-schemas
, --skip-tables
, --skip-columns
Only map the specified schemas, tables or columns.
The value of each argument is a comma-separated list of names.
Schema names are of the form schema
,
table names of the form table
or schema.table,
and column names are table.column
or schema.table.column
.
Each dot-separated segment can be specified as a regular expression encloded between slashes.
If the value starts with “@
”, then it is interpreted
as a file name, and the list of names is loaded from the file.
The file contains one name per line or comma-separated names. Examples follow:
--schema SCOTT
(maps only tables in the SCOTT
schema)--tables PERSONS,ORGS
(maps only the PERSONS
and ORGS
tables)--skip-table TEMP_CACHE
(skips the TEMP_CACHE
table)--skip-columns /.*/.CHECKSUM
(skips the CHECKSUM
column of each table, if present)--skip-tables /BACKUP.*/i
(skips tables backup1
, BACKUP_2
and so on)--skip-tables @exclude.txt
(reads a list of excluded table names from a file)--w3c
-v
-o outfile.ttl
-v
is used) will be stored in this file in Turtle syntax. If this
parameter is omitted, the result will be written to standard out.-b baseURI
http://baseURI/vocab/resource/
.
This should be the same base URI that is used when invoking the server. Defaults to http://localhost:2020/
.
For more information on vocabulary serving, see the D2RQ language specification.--verbose
--debug
generate-mapping -u root jdbc:mysql:///iswc
generate-mapping -u riccyg -p password -d oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver -o staffdb-mapping.ttl jdbc:oracle:thin:@ora.intranet.deri.ie:1521:staffdb
This will save the mapping file into staffdb-mapping.ttl
.
generate-mapping -l db_dump.sql -o mapping.ttl
This will create a new temporary in-memory
HSQLDB database, load the
SQL dump db_dump.sql
into the database, and
create a mapping file mapping.ttl
for it.
The mapping file will reference the dump as a
d2rq:startupSQLScript
.
This is a useful setup for quickly testing and debugging D2RQ.
generate-mapping -u root --skip-columns @bad-columns.txt jdbc:mysql:///iswc
The file bad-columns.txt
would contain column names in
schema.table.column
or table.column
notation,
one per line.


Introduction
Given the name of the blog, its fair to say that I am a huge NBA fan. I have been watching the NBA for over 2 decades and saw first hand the rise of analytics in basketball. Statistical modeling has greatly impacted basketball strategy from drafting players all the way choosing what play to run. However, there is still a long way to go as there are many problems with the current state of basketball analytics. They often times only paint half the picture, and people just run with the result, rather than taking a moment to reflect on the short comings of these stats.
Hot Hand Theory
The best example I can think of where statisticians blindly followed the data and jumped to a conclusion is the hot-hand theory. The hot-hand theory is when a person experiences a successful outcome and then has a greater chance of success in future attempts. In basketball, it means there is positive auto-correlation with shot-making percentages. I am more likely to hit the next shot if I have already made a few, whether this is do to confidence, focus, or some other unexplainable reason.
For years, statisticians and media members quoted a paper by Gilovich, Vallone, and Tversky which claimed that the hot hand did not exist. By looking at sequences of shooting, the authors concluded that the various 'hot hand' streaks were nothing more than random sequences of chance.
Players and coaches were shocked at this conclusion. From a person who has been playing basketball at various levels since I was 5, I could not accept this conclusion either. I was doing mental gymnasts trying to reconcile what I was feeling and the data. This was a very controversial debate with people who played basketball on one side arguing against those who analyzed the data. Most of the basketball community had accepted the paper as gospel and the hot hand was renamed the hot hand fallacy.
Finally, in 2014 the NBA got tracking data and the hot hand fallacy was debunked. A paper using tracking data was able to control for shot difficulty and disprove the hot hand fallacy. Players who are 'hot' shoot their next shot from further away and face a tougher defense, lowering the expected value of the shot. The conclusion is that players who are outperforming will continue to do so, conditional on the difficulty of their present shot.
The Blog
Similarly to the hot hand fallacy, our current statistics are have flaws when trying to describe the game, which leads to people often drawing wrong conclusions from the data. When people analyze a game, they often look at the box score which will often have around 15 categories, ranging from minutes to FG to points. I wish to tackle basketball analysis from first principles and examine the pros and cons of each box score statistic. I will do deep dives on new statistics that are important in describing the outcome of a game and show how these new metrics can help create optimal game play.

The nozama-cloudsearch REST service repository checkout contains multiple parts that get built into eggs. Paver is used to make it appear as one “egg” from the top level. This mean setup.py develop | bdist_egg and other commands can be used. All contained parts will then have the command run on them.
For example, to set up all contained eggs in development mode:
python setup.py develop
Run the server using the default “development.ini” do:
python setup.py runserver
Behind the scenes this will changed into the Service directory. It will then run “pserver –reload development.ini”. The default port for the service is “63833” and you can go to “http://localhost:63833” in your browser and see the top level status page.
The project containing the sphinx documentation for all contained project parts. The documentation can be built using paver from the top level of the project.
From a development checkout you can do the following:
$python setup.py docs
---> pavement.docs
make html
sphinx-build -b html -d build/doctrees source build/html
Running Sphinx v1.1.3
loading pickled environment... done
building [html]: targets for 1 source files that are out of date
updating environment: 0 added, 1 changed, 0 removed
reading sources... [100%] index
:
etc
:
Build finished. The HTML pages are in build/html.
You can now open the index.html in your browser:
docs/build/html/index.html
$
You can then run the command to open the newly built docs in Firefox:
firefox docs/build/html/index.html
This part provides the business logic and core code behind the cloudsearch project. This delivers the namespace “nozama.cloudsearch.data” into the environment. The Service builds on this to provide the REST API.
This part provides the Pyramid REST Service egg. This delivers the namespace “nozama.cloudsearch.service” into the environment. You can run the development version of the service using paver, as stated in the quick start, or from the Service directory directly.
For example:
cd nozama-cloudsearch-service
pserve --reload development.ini
This part provides the python client library the consumes the REST API, provided by the Service. This delivers the namespace “nozama.cloudsearch.client” into the environment.
A quick test of the client library against a running service is:
from nozama.cloudsearch.client.rest import CloudsearchService
# If the URL of the service is not provide localhost:63833 is used
# by default.
#
api = CloudsearchService("http://localhost:63833")
api.ping()
>>> {u'status': u'ok', u'version': u'1.0.0dev', u'name': u'nozama-cloudsearch-service'}
# Success!


Thanksgiving gasoline prices no bargain, but improving
SOUTHLAND (INT) Beleaguered Southern California motorists are getting some relief at the gas pump.
While some retailers have been reluctant to lower their pump prices, the Auto Club reports some rapid price drops.
Theres been an overall 10-cent-a-gallon decline the past week to $3.86 for 87 octane regular in Riverside and $3.91 in San Bernardino.
While the averages are down nearly 25-cents from last month, its still 28-cents higher than last Thanksgiving.
Octobers peak above $4 a gallon was the highest in four years.

AEW's Luchasaurus responds to Braun Strowman
by Karan BediLuchasaurus has always been very clear that he doesn't take insults about dinosaurs lightly, considering that he barrages the likes of Barney and others for sullying the good name of 'his species'.
Recently, Braun Strowman took a shot at Luchasaurus by referring to him as a 'Dork in a dragon mask.' Not to let anything go, Luchasaurus shrugged off the comment and responded by saying, "Wow... I haven’t heard the dragon insult since the Middle Ages".
Luchasaurus is certainly the most over 'big man' in AEW. He captivates crowds everywhere he goes and has been wonderfully paired with Jungle Boy and Marko Stunt. AEW has been pushing the group hard and even released a mock 'wild life documentary' on the group.
On the other side of the pond, Braun Strowman is set to be in a 5-on-5-on-5 match representing Team SmackDown alongside Roman Reigns, King Corbin, Shorty G and Mustafa Ali at Survivor Series 2019. The other two are Team Raw (Seth Rollins, Randy Orton, Kevin Owens, Ricochet and Drew McIntyre) and Team NXT (TBA).
Would a match between the two happen in the future? While it's highly unlikely, in the world of professional wrestling, anything is possible.


H.B. Woodrose Seeds, Cannabis & Oxycodone
At about noon I took seven of the small seeds and scraped off the outside, then chewed them up one at a time and swallowed them with water. I hadn't eaten anything yet that day, but after about 15 minutes I started feeling very nauseous so I drank some ginger ale and smoked a small bowl of weed. I laid down on my bed to try to get rid of the nausea.
Now before I get into the actual trip I want to say that before doing these I was expecting a mild trip with only like a body high and maybe some CEVs. I've done mushrooms before and wasn't expecting these to be anything like them.
I was wrong.
After about 30 minutes of laying down the nausea went away, and I could start to distinguish the LSA from the weed. I closed my eyes and just let my mind wander...I had incredibly vivid CEVs that were just randomly popping into my head. They weren't strange images, just normal things like houses and trees, but the sharpness, for lack of a better word, of them was what made them cool.
After about an hour of this I decided to open my eyes and see what was going on. At this point I was VERY messed up and had no idea what was going on. I was still laying on my bed, and I was just staring at the one side of my room. I started to do this cool thing where I would focus on a point and pull it towards me. For example, I was focus at the spot where my wall and ceiling met and pull with with my mind. I went about doing this to the whole side of my room until it was completely 2 dimensional.
I got bored of that and decided to go on the computer.
I was just browsing PM and stuff, don't really remember. I played some games, but pretty much I was just enjoying how nice my body felt. My legs started hurting so I got up and walked downstairs to get a drink. I had zero motor skills and almost fell down the steps. I stumbled into the kitchen and tried to pour myself some OJ. I spilled it everywhere and nailed my teeth and lip when I tried to take a drink. I crawled back upstairs and went to the bathroom (I ended up pissing like 9 times throughout the trip for some reason). After all this moving around my legs were burning horribly and were so cramped up so I laid down again and played with my dog.
At this point I seemed to shrink and everything got very large.  I noticed that my vision was real weird. Everything was glowing, and I had some major tracers. One of my favorite parts of the trip was this thing that happened where my vision became 'low-resolution'. Imagine turning down the resolution on your comp to like 300 x 400. Thats what everything looked like...big and grainy. My vision stayed like this for the rest of the day.
I kept hearing a car pull into my driveway but everytime I got up to look there was nothing there.  There were shadows on it that looked like people, but I couldn't find out where the shadows were coming from.
At this point I had to talk to my mom on the phone.  I had no idea what was going on and was slurring my words. I told her that I had been sleeping and just woke up and she bought it.
I went in the bathroom and looked at my pupils.  I kept turning off the lights then turning them back on and watched my pupils expand and contract. After that I went in my room and snorted about 5mgs of oxycodone. This produced these awesome waves of warmth and pleasure on my body and made me so relaxed.
About 4 hours had gone by, and the most intense part of the trip was over. For the next 4 hours though I was still having weird vision, CEVs, and audio hallucinations. My dad came over for like 15 minutes and I just got into bed and made sure he didn't look at my eyes and tired to concentrate on talking right.
For the rest of the night I had low-dosage DXM-like effects. For some reason I couldn't get comfortable and my arms and legs were cramping real bad. I did some more oc and listened to music and went to bed. I had a good sleep and when I woke up I had the usual post-trip haziness. I felt very satisfied with my life and everything.
For some reason I got a horrible headache that didn't go away until about an hour ago. Overall the trip was very fun, but with some real bad side effects (cramping and nausea). I easily matched some of my shroom trips in intensity which I wasn't expecting at all.
LSA is a cool drug, but I'd rather do mushrooms or acid as soon as I get some. Worth trying once, but I probably won't do it again just because of the headache I had the next day.
SUMMARY: Trip was fun, vivid CEVs and aural hallucinations, cool vision alterations. Bad side effects such as cramping and nausea.

The goal of this converter is to take a JavaScript matrix as input and apply rules specified in a rule file to the matrix. This rule file is a JSON file containing key value pairs, the keys being the hexadecimal color value of a block and the values being settings like texture, size, rotation, bump map, shape and color. The rules file is interpreted by an Interpreter pattern which extracts the hexadecimal values, dtermines which objects can be associated with which color and then renders the object with all the associated rules applied to each relevant object.
The example below is aimed at showing the versatility of this converter in texturing the same object in completely different ways.

Customization
Take advantage of the Docs UI Kit's past, current and future updates, by learning how to create your own content without changing the core styles of Docs UI Kit.
With SASS
-
Use the
$font-family-base
attribute as our typographic base applied to the<body>
in_user-variables.scss
file to change the current font family variable with yours.$font-family-base: "Poppins", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
-
Add your font stylesheet into the
<head>
before all other stylesheets. Like:<!-- CSS Global Compulsory --> <link rel="stylesheet" href="//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Poppins:300,400,500,600">
With CSS
-
Simply replace the font family
font-family
from<body>
intheme.css
tag with yours.body { font-family: "Poppins", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; }
-
Add your font stylesheet into the
<head>
before all other stylesheets. Like:<!-- CSS Global Compulsory --> <link rel="stylesheet" href="//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Poppins:300,400,500,600">
SASS
Utilize our source SASS files to take advantage of variables, mixins, and more.
Whenever possible, avoid modifying Docs UI Kit's core files. For SASS, that means creating your own stylesheet that imports Bootstrap so you can modify and extend it.
Customizing SASS
To avoid file loss, overrides of your custom styles or any other conflicts during the upgrade process, create or modify your styles with these 2 files assets/include/scss/
:
_user-variables.scss
- Variables file for customizing or overriding Bootstrap core and Docs UI Kit elements/components that have been tied to variables._user.scss
- Create a new style in here.
Note
Custom files along with Bootstrap core CSS files will be generated in to the theme.css
file.
Variable defaults
Every SASS variable in Docs UI Kit includes the !default
flag allowing you to override the variable's default value in your own SASS without modifying either Bootstrap or Docs UI Kit's source code. Copy and paste variables as needed, modify their values, and remove the !default
flag. If a variable has already been assigned, then it won't be re-assigned by the default values in Docs UI Kit.
You will find the complete list of Docs UI Kit's variables in assets/include/scss/_variables.scss
.
Variable overrides within the same SASS file can come before or after the default variables. However, when overriding across SASS files, your overrides must come before you import Docs UI Kit's SASS files.
Here's an example that changes the color
of the template in the scss/custom/_custom-variables.scss
file when importing and compiling Docs UI Kit via npm:
// Your variable overrides
$blue: #107ef4;
Maps and loops
Bootstrap 4 includes a handful of SASS maps, key value pairs that make it easier to generate families of related CSS. We use SASS maps for our colors, grid breakpoints, and more. Just like SASS variables, all SASS maps include the !default
flag and can be overridden and extended.
Some of our SASS maps are merged into empty ones by default. This is done to allow easy expansion of a given SASS map, but comes at the cost of making removing items from a map slightly more difficult.
Modify map
To modify an existing color in our $theme-colors
map, add the following to your custom SASS file:
$theme-colors: (
"primary": #107ef4,
"danger": #de4437
);
Add to map
To add a new color to $theme-colors
, add the new key and value:
$theme-colors: (
"custom-color": #000
);
SASS options
Customize Docs UI Kit with our built-in custom variables file and easily toggle global CSS preferences with $enable-*
SASS variables.
You can find and customize these variables for key global options in Docs UI Kit's scss/_variables.scss
file.
Color
Many of Docs UI Kit's various components and utilities are built through a series of colors defined in a SASS map. This map can be looped over in SASS to quickly generate a series of rulesets.
All colors
All colors available in Docs UI Kit, are available as SASS variables and a SASS map in scss/_variables.scss
file.
Here's how you can use these in your SASS:
.alpha {
color: $primary;
}
// From the SASS map with Bootstrap `color()` function {
.beta {
color: color("purple");
}
Color utility classes are also available for setting color
and background-color
.
Theme colors
We use a subset of all Bootstrap colors to create a smaller color palette for generating color schemes, also available as SASS variables and a SASS map in Docs UI Kit's scss/_variables.scss
file.
Grays
An expansive set of gray variables and a SASS map in scss/_variables.scss
for consistent shades of gray across your project.
SASS Components
Many of Bootstrap's components and utilities are built with @each
loops that iterate over a SASS map. This is especially helpful for generating variants of a component by $theme-colors
and creating responsive variants for each breakpoint. As you customize these SASS maps and recompile, you'll automatically see your changes reflected in these loops.
Modifiers
Many of Bootstrap and Docs UI Kit's components are built with a base-modifier class approach. This means the bulk of the styling is contained to a base class (e.g., .btn
) while style variations are confined to modifier classes (e.g., .btn-danger
). These modifier classes are built from the $theme-colors
map to make customizing the number and name of our modifier classes.
Here are two examples of how we loop over the $theme-colors
map to generate modifiers to the .alert
component and all our .bg-*
background utilities.
// Generate '.bg-*' color utilities
@each $color, $value in $theme-colors {
@include bg-variant('.bg-#{$color}', $value);
}


Team GECCO (short for Gel Ethanol Cervical Cancer Obliterator) is a team of Duke undergraduate engineers working in collaboration with Duke postdoc researcher Dr. Jenna Mueller to develop a low-cost electromechanical device for the ablation of cervical cancer.
The project started when Dr. Mueller discovered, in the course of her studies, that a solution of ethanol and ethylcellulose is a very effective ablative agent. Upon injecting it into cancerous regions, it reacts with water in cervical tissue and forms a viscous gel. This unique property allows the solution to maintain its position in the cancerous area while the ethanol in the solution kills the surrounding cells. However, using this solution as an effective treatment requires two things: an accurate needle insertion method and a very, very slow injection flow rate.
Our team's goal is to design and build a self-contained, portable device that can be used in a clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment.
We began research and development at the beginning of the semester, starting with an exhaustive dive into the background of the problem, including basic domain knowledge, standards and regulations, and existing analogous solutions. We met with an OB-GYN and a professional R&D engineer for guidance during this process.
After conducting research, we established design criteria and brainstormed solution ideas, then used numerical evaluation techniques to decide between design options.  The entire assembly is contained in a biocompatible plastic shell with an internal power supply.
At this point in the process, our team has sourced materials and built low-fidelity prototypes of both the insertion and injection mechanisms. We have achieved the necessary rates for each operation, proving our concept and paving the way for future advances. See some pictures of the low-fidelity models below!
A first prototype of the syringe pushing mechanism, with a large stepper motor, to be downsized in future prototypes.
The syringe pushing mechanism in action, sped up to about 70x working speed.
A first prototype of the needle array and insertion mechanism, with linear actuator attached.


Looking at Robyn Morris’s work, he has a great combination of graphics, branding and typography. He also shows his work in an app as well as how they would look on a website. In addition to this he has a color palette for each post. This is helpful to me as a designer because it gives me many different ideas on how to apply colors on my own app. Out of all his work “Flavors Me” layout is one of the strongest. The composition is good and the typography is very clean. This app directly relates to the work we’re doing in class because it deals with apps and websites as well and layout and compositions for these apps. Robyn’s work is very clean and professional looking in all his work and his dribble would be a great place to get fresh ideas.


Pathanamthitta panelto enforce regulations
by Special CorrespondentPATHANAMTHITTAThe district-level committee for captive elephant management, chaired by District Collector P.B. Noohu, has decided to strictly enforce the regulations for parading captive elephants between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.
The committee has decided not to permit parading of elephants without obtaining prior permission for the same.
At present, 107 temples in the district have got permission for parading elephants. The temple authorities should submit application for conducting the festival to the monitoring committee three days before the festival.
The festival committee and public should not permit people to take selfie with elephants or sound horn near the elephants.
The Collector sought the cooperation of all concerned for strict implementation of the captive elephant maintenance rules.

JavaScript variables are containers for storing data values.

Function parameters are the names listed in the function definition.
Here's an example that uses a function to calculate wind chill:
Temperature:Loops can execute a block of code a number of times.
Here's an example of a function that uses a while loop to print out the times table for the number 5:
Here's an exaple of a for loop that iterates over an array:
Conditional statements are used to perform different actions based on different conditions.
Here's an example of a function using conditional statements that will print out whether it's the weekend:
JavaScript arrays are used to store multiple values in a single variable.
In this example we can see a function that uses an array to print out a sum of the first and last number in the array [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]:
An associative array isa set of key value pairs.The key can be either an identifier, a string or a number. The value stored can be any JavaScript object.
Here's an example of an associative array:


The ZLSound module allows you to play sounds with minimal (unnoticeable) latency. You can also set looping points, control volume, change pitch and pan.
Use real devices when testing your applications. The simulator is no substitute for the real thing. In our some of our tests, the simulator had clicks and cracks in the sound, while the real device always played the sounds smoothly.
If you don't have an apple developer license yet, and you want to experience the performance of this module on a real device, you can download our Free Pan-Flute Application from the App Store.

lc(Mono 2.6) lc(Mono 2.6) NAME lc - Mono License Compiler SYNOPSIS lc -c filename -t targetassembly [-i reference...] [-v] [-o outputpath] [-nologo] DESCRIPTION lc tool is a license compiler for Mono. It's used to convert a licenses.licx file to a resource that can be embedded into an executable. When using commercial components for .NET they often require a license resource at runtime to make sure the developer was licensed to use this control. The most common way of making sure the component was properly licensed is by using license resources. At compile time the developer uses the lc tool to convert a licenses.licx file to a program‐ name.exe.licenses file and embed that as a managed resource during compi‐ lation. RUNTIME OPTIONS The following options are available: --complist=filename, -c filename This option is used to specify the input file, the licenses.licx file to create a license reesource for. This option is required. The license compiler will read each line in this file and try to load the types specified on that line. --target=assemblyname, -t targetassembly full assembly name with file extension for the target assembly. The license compiler uses this as a key when compiling the licenses. It has to match the assembly the resource will be embed‐ ded in. This option is required. --load=reference, -i reference Assembly reference to load before trying to compile a license. This option is needed for assemblies where the references are not in the gac. Compilers should pass all references to the license compiler. --verbose,, -v Gives more verbose output about the license compiling process. --help, -h Displays usage instructions. --outdir=path, -o path Target path file the licenses resource. By default the license compiler emits the resource in the current directory. The filename will always match the target assembly passed to --target with .licenses added. --nologo Do not emit the "Mono License Compiler" logo on stdout while com‐ pilng. LICENSE FILES The format for the license files (licenses.licx) is the following: # comment namespace.type, assemblyname namespace.type, full-assemblyname All lines starting with a # are ignored. the first form requires that the assembly was loaded through the --load,-i option but does not require the full assembly name, only the first part. The second form requires the full assembly name including locale, version and publickeytoken.

MAST results in plain text format.
MAST results in XML format.
The sequence that would achieve the best possible match score (and its reverse complement for nucleotide motifs).
MAST computes the pairwise correlations between each pair of motifs. The correlation between two motifs is the maximum sum of Pearson's correlation coefficients for aligned columns divided by the width of the shorter motif. The maximum is found by trying all alignments of the two motifs.
Motifs with correlations below 0.60 have little effect on
the accuracy of the E-values computed by MAST. Motifs with higher
correlations with other motifs should be removed from the query. You can
also request MAST to remove redundant motifs from its analysis
under Advanced options from the MAST web page,
or by specifying --remcorr
when running MAST on your own computer.
This diagram shows the normal spacing of the motifs specified to MAST.
MAST will calculate larger p-values for sites that diverge from the order and spacing in the diagram.
The E-value of the sequence.
If strands were scored separately then there will be two E-values for the sequence separated by a slash (/). The score for the provided sequence will be first and the score for the reverse-complement will be second.
The block diagram shows the best non-overlapping tiling of motif matches on the sequence. These motif matches are the ones used by MAST to compute the E-value for the sequence. Hovering the mouse cursor over a motif match causes the display of the motif name, position p-value of the match and other details in the hovering text.
The combined p-value of the sequence.
If strands were scored separately with a complementable alphabet then there will be two p-values for the sequence separated by a slash (/). The score for the given sequence will be first and the score for the reverse-complement will be second.
This indicates the offset used for translation of the DNA.
The annotated sequence shows a portion of the sequence with the matching motif sequences displayed above.
The displayed portion of the sequence can be modified by sliding the two buttons below the sequence block diagram so that the portion you want to see is between the two needles attached to the buttons. By default the two buttons move together but you can drag one individually by holding shift before you start the drag.
If the strands were scored separately then overlaps in motif sites may occur so you can choose to display only one strand at a time. This is done by selecting "Matches on given strand" or "Matches on opposite strand" from the drop-down list.
The sequence p-value of a score is defined as the probability of a random sequence of the same length containing some match with as good or better a score.
The combined p-value of a sequence measures the strength of the match of the sequence to all the motifs and is calculated by
The E-value of a sequence is the expected number of sequences in a random database of the same size that would match the motifs as well as the sequence does and is equal to the combined p-value of the sequence times the number of sequences in the database.
| Motif | 1 |
|---|---|
| p-value | 8.23e-7 |
| Start | 23 |
| End | 33 |

A labelled frame is a box with a text label drawn around other GUI widgets to make the window look better and help organize the GUI elements.
Frames and labelled frames are the only GUI widgets that can have other widgets placed within them. Labelled frames are passive widgets, meaning that they do not respond to button clicks or keystrokes.
The x1 and y1 parameters specify the lower-left corner of the frame and the x2 and y2 parameters specify the upper-right corner of the frame. (The text will extend above the frame.) The kind parameter specifies the type of frame. This is one of 0, GUI.LINE, GUI.INDENT or GUI.EXDENT. A kind of 0 is the default and is the same as GUI.LINE.
GUI.INDENT and GUI.EXDENT only display properly if the background colour has been set to gray using GUI.SetBackgroundColor. GUI.INDENT makes the contents frame appear indented or recessed. GUI.EXDENT makes the contents of the frame appear to stand out from the window.
import GUI
View.Set ("graphics:250;90,nobuttonbar")
GUI.SetBackgroundColor (gray)
var lineFrame, indentFrame, exdentFrame : int
lineFrame := GUI.CreateLabelledFrame (10, 10, 80, 70, 0, "Line")
indentFrame := GUI. CreateLabelledFrame (90, 10, 160, 70,
GUI.INDENT, "Indent")
exdentFrame := GUI. CreateLabelledFrame (170, 10, 240, 70,
GUI.EXDENT, "Exdent")
A labelled frame widget is a passive widget and cannot be enabled or disabled.
| GUI.Show, GUI.Hide, GUI.Dispose, GUI.GetX, GUI.GetY, GUI.GetWidth, GUI.GetHeight, GUI.SetPosition, GUI.SetSize, GUI.SetPositionAndSize, GUI.SetLabel |
This means that you can only call the function by calling GUI.CreateLabelledFrame, not by calling CreateLabelledFrame.


Implement Prototype and Strategy Patterns
The second example the pattern that I selected to implement is prototype and strategy pattern. Prototype is a creational design pattern and strategy is a behavioral design pattern. In this example, I used prototype pattern to create Car function. The prototype pattern help improve on the method creation by appending them all at once to the prototype within an object literal. For this example the strategy pattern is use to help Car function to greet different car owner differently. In order to do that, I created different Strategies to say hello. The greeting function provides a great way to encapsulate an algorithm and can be used as a strategy.

Patch Adams Rated `PG-13' A Review By Ryan Davis
The scene at the end of 1989's `Dead Poets Society,' when Robin Williams' English students stand up on their desk and say, `Captain, My Captain,' gets me every time. Unfortunately, the court room scene near the end of Robin's newest film, `Patch Adams,' doesn't have anywhere near the same impact.
From the surface `Patch Adams' looks very promising. It's a story about a not so young man, Patch Adams (Robin Williams), who finds meaning in his life through helping sick people. When the film opens, we find Patch, depressed and suicidal, checking himself into a mental hospital. In a few scenes, strongly reminiscent of `One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest,' he ends up helping the patients through their problems; and it's here that he finds how much he loves working with people. So he checks himself out of the hospital, and heads straight to medical school.
Right from the start, Patch uses comedy to help make the patient more comfortable. He continuously breaks medical tradition and makes the Dean of the school angry. Shortly after joining medical school, he meets and falls in love with Carin (Monica Potter). They, along with Patch's dork friend, Truman (Daniel London), start a medical clinic for uninsured people. Once the Dean catches wind of the clinic, he tells Patch he can't graduate and kicks him out of school. Patch, like what any true American would do, takes the school to court. It's here where the not so climatic court room battle takes place, over whether or not Patch can become a real doctor.
I have never seen a movie with some potential just completely blow it. It seems more like a series of short sketches, rather than a full-length movie. Considering it runs almost two hours, much too long for such a light film, it could have flowed much smoother. Not to mention the fact of how serious the film takes itself, and manages to cover all the cliches of bad melodrama. Robin Williams saves the film from being abysmal with several comic scenes that elevate the movie to entertaining and worthwhile levels. But those moments are rare and in the end `Patch Adams' is barely average.
Grade: C-

Tuesday In The Office
The crowd huddled closely around Lindsay’s monitor. Only the occasional chuckle and whisper of “oh, I could do that” escaped the group’s rapt awe.
As the audience remained entranced, Steven passed by. He noticed the entire Marketing team, otherwise heads down during the busy season of post-holiday promotional work, gathered together.
Curious, he approached. He tried to see over the huddled mass, but he, not a tall man, could not identify the source of attention. All he could hear was the muffled tones of what sounded like a music video.
“What are you guys watching?”, he asked.
No one responded to him, though a few more giggles and comments escaped the otherwise-impermeable huddle.
Frustrated, he tried again. “Guys, what is it?! I want to see, too.”

“It’s this new viral thing…”
She proceeded to tell him the name, but he couldn’t her exactly what she said. However, immediately upon hearing whatever it is he thought he heard, and often being one to make a scene when starved of attention, Steven turned around and ran across the office.
“Hey guys! Check this,” he exclaimed aloud. “Hey Daquan!”
Daquan turned around for Steven to slug him in the shoulder.  Said audience was quickly horrified as it turned collectively to see what happened.
Steven was dismissed that day for assaulting a fellow coworker.
N.b., To “hit the quan” is to dance as though you are a geriatric, old, rhythmless man. This dance crazed swept the nation last year. It should not be confused with “Hit Daquan”, which is inappropriate in all instances but most importantly in the workplace.

 He has broken almost every bone in his body. He has survived hardships that no one can imagine. But for the past 18 years, Jackie Chan has not survived the importation to America. While his previous films have been enjoyable (some are classics of the genre), their inherent foreignness has left Middle America with a lukewarm appreciation of the man and his abilities. Compiled with the fact that all of his previous films have been severely edited for western consumption, have left most viewers with only a glimpse of what Jackie Chan is.
Jackie has tried to enter the U.S. market before. Back in 1979 with the release of "The Big Brawl" which while amusing was a half baked concoction of ideas, that never really let Jackie's abilities shine through. Add to this, the embarrassing "Cannonball Run" films and you can pretty much appreciate why no one out side of the coasts knew who this funny looking Asian was. A pitiful attempt to mold Jackie into a 'Dirty Harry' character in the James Glickenhaus directed embarrassment "The Protector" did nothing here stateside, in fact almost becoming a direct to video release.
In 1996, New Line Cinema released "Rumble in the Bronx" nationwide. The film opened at # 1 in the box-office becoming the first dubbed in English foreign film in history to do so. It stayed on top long enough to make over $30 million. Jackie was now a star in the U.S. But there was still a problem. American studios still felt that his films were too foreign for the multiplexes in North Dakota and Wisconsin. So all of Jackie's subsequent releases have been truncated, reprocessed and re-imagined for the American Market. Now after all of this tampering and off-handed redesigning of who is called the modern day successor to Buster Keaton, we have New Line's latest release 'RUSH HOUR'.
"Rush Hour" starts off in Hong Kong on the eve of the British handover of the Island colony to mainland China. Detective Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) busts a smuggling operation in the harbor, recovering millions of dollars worth of Chinese art and historical artifacts from the criminal mastermind Juntao. Detective Lee reports to his superior Consul Han (Tzi Ma) during a celebratory dinner in honor of his new position as American Consul to the U.S. for the new government. Upon arriving in America, Consul Han's daughter, Soo Yung (Julia Hsu), is kidnapped and held for ransom.
We cut to downtown Los Angeles where Detective James Carter (Chris Tucker) is undercover making a buy of illegal explosives. Unfortunately, everything goes wrong and Carter is on reprimand until the FBI request his aid in retaining Detective Inspector Lee who is on his way to Los Angeles to help his friend Consul Han and his unofficial goddaughter Soo Yung.
As the plot develops, it seems that the villain, Juntao is responsible for the kidnapping. The constant bickering and animosity between Carter and Lee creates more confusion than help, until the two men grudgingly decide to work together, outside of the official investigation.
The plot of "Rush Hour" is workable if not too demanding. There are a couple of surprises, but nothing that we haven't seen before. As written by Jim Kouf and Ross LaManna the plot moves along at a fast clip making for an enjoyable diversion. What makes the film work is the casting of Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker as polar opposites. Tucker's character is a voracious self promoter, always ready to spin his destructive procedures into positive ones by coning his way through reprimands. Jackie's, on the other hand is an honorable policeman, upholding his duty and his responsibility to both his title and his friends. The humor that develops through these situations is what makes 'Rush Hour' so enjoyable. Chris Tucker is from the same mold as Eddie Murphy in the '48 hours' films, fast talking and always ready to prove himself in a foolish attempt of machismo. It's the inclusion of Jackie Chan (who is reigned in here, not so much by the script but by insurance concerns), that brings this film up to a higher level. As the two characters conspire against each other, it's Jackie that takes center stage with his trade make fight choreography (absolutely some of the most startling and inventive fight scenes in an American film). A fight in a seedy pool hall is a tour de force of jay dropping amusement.
Unfortunately, Brett Ratner's direction is rather flatly handled. Everything is standard framing with nothing to enliven the action or emphasize the drama. In most cases the camera is locked down with little or no movement. The cinematography by Adam Greenberg (Terminator, Terminator 2) is acceptable in as much as this film is produced with the video release kept close at hand. Everything is framed within the center of the frame with very little moving off to the outer edges. This is the most maddening essence of the film and one of the damming situations that the video entertainment industry has left us with. Very few filmmakers now, film for the theatrical screen.
But all that aside, how does "Rush Hour" fit into the overi of Jackie Chan? Well to be honest, this is less a Jackie Chan film as it is a Chris Tucker film. But that being said, Jackie is anything but window dressing in the film. This is no where as unimpressive as 'The Big Brawl' or as insulting as "The Protector". Jackie's character while being a harder edge man than is usual in his films, still manages to apply his light hearted approach to action. Also, the handling of Jackie's accent and difficulty with the English language is used to remarkably humorous result (wait till you hear his rendition of the rock classic "WAR.. what's it good for"). There are some scenes of racial insensitivity, but those are in keeping with the stranger in a strange land essence of Jackie's character and Chris Tucker's loudmouth fast-talker. There is nothing here that is meanspirited or offensive in and of itself.
And Jackie does get two or three great scenes to show of his daring do, and since most Western audiences have yet to witness Jackie at his most intense (check out "POLICE STORY" or "DRAGON'S FOREVER") for some hair-raising action), "Rush Hour is a fine introduction to the man and his mania.
Despite it's short comings "Rush Hour" delivers a solid two hours of entertainment. While some of the language is harsh, this is much more friendly than any other buddy cop movie that's come down the pike in the last ten years.
On a scale of 5 stars. 'Rush Hour' rates 3 and one half. A fun and enjoyable piece of escapism that serves both stars well. Now.. when does Jackie get to direct?!

A few words about ascribe¶
Circa 2014
- Intellectual Property on the Blockchain:
- Trace how images spread on the Internet over time:
- A scalable blockchain database:
ascribe & white papers¶
ascribe & open source software¶
- transactions: Bitcoin for humans
- pyspool: Reference implementation of the SPOOL protocol
- image-match: Quickly search over billions of images
- bigchaindb: A scalable blockchain database
- cryptoconditions: Python port of the Interledger Protocol specifications
Talk Outline¶
- Cryptographic primitives
- Bitcoin transactions
- Bitcoin blocks
- Bitcoin blockchain
- Bitcoin network and consensus
- Brief demo of ascribe
Note
Brief mention of cryptographic primitives (hash functions & digital signatures) to simply point out their key role in bitcoin. But the talk assumes familiarity with each primitive.
Brief mention of public keys, and how they are used to represent senders and receivers in bitcoin, through what is called bitcoin addresses. Again, assumption of familiarity with public key cryptography.
Start with a bitcoin transaction, its data structure, validation via a script, but only cover the digital signature validation, and perhaps briefly mention that the script could be used for basic smart contracts.
Look at how transactions are assembled into blocks. Show the data structure of a block. This will be an occasion to introduce Merkle trees, in the context of a block.
Brief discussion of the role of the nonce, and other related fields, with respect to the hash puzzle that needs to be solved.
Briefly show how the blocks are chained, to form the block chain.
Bitcoin network – perhaps terminate with a brief mention of the challenge of achieving consensus on what the block chain actually is since each node may have its own version.
Warnings¶
- Some Nuts & Bolts
- The problem of not understanding everything
- The problem of not knowing where to start
Richard Feynman: the feeling of confusion¶
Feynman: “Greek” vs “Babylonian” Mathematics¶
Note
The core of the discussion of each approach starts a few seconds after ~23:25.
Bitcoin Key Points¶
- Bitcoin is a decentralized payment system.
- Based on a public transaction ledger.
- The ledger is maintained by anonymous miners.
- Miners validate transactions, and generate blocks of transactions.
- For each block, miners include a coin creation transaction, for which they select the recipient of the newly minted coins.
- A valid block must include a nonce.
- To find a valid nonce, a miner must brute-force a hash inequality.
- Bitcoin mining with the block rewards & transaction fees create an incentive for miners to behave honestly, which in turn helps maintaining the integrity of the consensus chain aka “the” blockchain.
- Garay et al. The Bitcoin Backbone Protocol: Analysis and Applications
Cryptographic Primitives¶
- Hash functions
- Digital signatures
Secure Hash Algorithm - SHA-256¶
Merkle-Damgård hash construction by Matt Crypto (public domain)
“SHA‐256 uses the Merkle‐Damgard transform to turn a fixed‐length collision‐resistant compression function into a hash function that accepts arbitrary‐length inputs. The input is “padded” so that its length is a multiple of 512 bits.” (Narayanan et al.)
Davies–Meyer one-way compression function¶
Davies-Meyer hash construct that turns a block cipher into a one-way compression function that can be used inside a hash function.

Creating a Bitcoin Address (1)¶
import hashlib
from ecdsa import SigningKey, SECP256k1
from pycoin.encoding import b2a_base58
# generate a private ECDSA key (signing key)
priv_key = '18E14A7B6A307F426A94F8114701E7C8E774E7F9A47E2C2035DB29A206321725'
signing_key = SigningKey.from_string(priv_key.decode('hex'), curve=SECP256k1)
# get the corressponding public (verifying) key
verifying_key = signing_key.verifying_key
# prefix with 1 byte 0x04
pub_key = '\04' + verifying_key.to_string()
# hash it using SHA-256
sha256_of_pubkey = hashlib.sha256(pub_key).digest()
Creating a Bitcoin Address (2)¶
# perform a second round of hashing, using RIPEMD-160
ripemd160 = hashlib.new('ripemd160')
ripemd160.update(sha256_of_pubkey)
ripemd160_of_sha256_of_pubkey = ripemd160.digest()
# prefix resulting with version byte (0x00 for mainnet)
versioned_ripemd160 = '\00' + ripemd160_of_sha256_of_pubkey
# perform two more round of hashing with SHA-256
sha256_of_versioned_ripemd = hashlib.sha256(versioned_ripemd160).digest()
sha256_of_sha256_of_ripemd = hashlib.sha256(sha256_of_versioned_ripemd).digest()
Creating a Bitcoin Address (3)¶
# address checksum: first 4 bytes of last hash
checksum = sha256_of_sha256_of_ripemd[:4]
# 25-byte binary bitcoin address
twenty_five_btc_addr = versioned_ripemd160 + checksum
# convert byte string into a base58 string using Base58Check encoding

True_Blood
True Blood is a horror/drama based on a series of novels called The Southern American Vampires Mysteries. It focuses on Sookie Stackhouse and her various encounters with vampires and other supernatural beings. The show is centred in the small town of Bon Temps in Louisiana. The show focuses heavily on the co-existence of humans with vampires. The show also touches on several other controversial issues involving equal rights, violence, discrimination and religion.


ABOUT
The Man
Here you can find everything you could possibly want to know about me, and then some. I have dissected every aspect of my life for the world to see, effectively fulfilling the typical millennial trope (Sorry, no food pics). So, if I leave any stone unturned or you have questions about how or why I do what I do, please email or message me through one of the many social media spaces I inhabit here. However, if you just want a quick snapshot of my personality and creative style, skip on down to the Inspiration or Personality sections of this page.
Name
Trinomial Nomenclature
Kyler Sean Pinkowski
Kyler
Origin: Ireland
Meaning: ‘The Protector of People and Good’
My parents were trying to decide between two names (Sean and something else) when this name popped up as they were watching the show American Gladiators. Kyler ‘Superman’ Storm (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd7FYS5UzPE) was his full title on the show, and in all honesty, I’m a little perturbed that they didn’t name me Storm. However, I believe that constantly being confused with Kyle and Tyler has taught me a great deal of patience throughout my life, and I wouldn’t be who I am today without my unique name.
Sean
Origin: Ireland
Meaning: ‘Gift from God’
In Latin means 'Saint'
Pinkowski
Nicknames:
Origin: My football coach Medlock coined this delightful moniker when he decided that my full last name was too long to yell. {Insert football picture}This nickname could be seen as an insult to some, but I take it as a term of endearment, and I also use it as my alter ego when I go to Wasteland Weekend with my friends {Insert Wasteland Picture}. Ironically, whenever I try to tan I just get darker shades of pink so the nickname personifies multiple aspects of my existence. Consequently, it is also the name of one of my favorite childhood cartoon characters from the show Pinky and the Brain.
