3 Event Service
3.1 Overview of the CosEvent Service
The Event service allows programmers to subscribe to information channels. Suppliers can generate events without knowing the consumer identities and the consumer can receive events without knowing the supplier identity. Both push and pull event delivery are supported. The Event service will queue information and processes.
The CORBA Event service provides a flexible model for asynchronous, decoupled communication between objects. This chapter outlines communication models and the roles and relationships of key components in the CosEvent service. It shows a simple example on use of this service.
3.2 Event Service Components
There are five components in the OMG CosEvent service architecture. These are described below:
- Suppliers and consumers: Consumers are the ultimate targets of events generated by suppliers. Consumers and suppliers can both play active and passive roles. There could be two types of consumers and suppliers: push or pull. A PushSupplier object can actively push an event to a passive PushConsumer object. Likewise, a PullSupplier object can passively wait for a PullConsumer object to actively pull an event from it.
- EventChannel: The central abstraction in the CosEvent service is the EventChannel which plays the role of a mediator between consumers and suppliers. Consumers and suppliers register their interest with the EventChannel. It can provide many-to-many communication. The channel consumes events from one or more suppliers, and supplies events to one or more consumers. An EventChannel can support consumers and suppliers using different communication models.
- ProxySuppliers and ProxyConsumers: ProxySuppliers act as middlemen between consumers and the EventChannel. A ProxySupplier is similar to a normal supplier, but includes an additional method for connecting a consumer to the ProxySupplier. Likewise, ProxyConsumers act as middlemen between suppliers and the EventChannel. A ProxyConsumer is similar to a normal consumer, but includes an additional method for connecting a supplier to the ProxyConsumer.
- Supplier and consumer administrations: Consumer administration acts as a factory for creating ProxySuppliers. Supplier administration acts as a factory for creating ProxyConsumers.
3.3 Event Service Communication Models
There are four general models of component collaboration in the OMG CosEvent service architecture. The following describes these models: (Please note that proxies are not shown in the diagrams for simplicity).
- The Canonical Push Model: The Canonical push model shown in figure 2(A) allows the suppliers of events to initiate the transfer of event data to consumers. In this model, suppliers are active initiators and consumers are the passive targets of the requests. EventChannels play the role of Notifier. Thus, active suppliers use EventChannels to push data to passive consumers that have registered with the EventChannels.
- The Canonical Pull Model:The Canonical pull model shown in figure 2(B) allows consumers to request events from suppliers. In this model, Consumers are active initiators and suppliers are the passive targets of the pull requests. EventChannel plays the role of Procurer since it procures events on behalf of consumers. Thus, active consumers can explicitly pull data from passive suppliers via the EventChannels.
- The Hybrid Push/Pull Model: The push/pull model shown in figure 2(C) is a hybrid that allows consumers to request events queued at an EventChannel by suppliers. In this model, both suppliers and consumers are active initiators of the requests. EventChannels play the role of Queue. Thus, active consumers can explicitly pull data deposited by active suppliers via the EventChannels.
- The Hybrid Pull/Push Model: The pull/push model shown in figure 2(D) is another hybrid that allows the channel to pull events from suppliers and push them to consumers. In this model, suppliers are passive targets of pull requests and consumers are passive targets of pushes. EventChannels play the role of Intelligent Agent. Thus, active EventChannels can pull data from passive suppliers and push that data to passive consumers.
3.4 A Tutorial on How to Create a Simple Service
To be able to use the cosEvent application supplier and consumer objects must be implemented, which must inherit from the appropriate interface defined in the CosEventComm.idl specification.
We start by creating an interface which inherits from the correct interface, e.g., CosEventComm::PushConsumer. Hence, we must also implement all operations defined in the PushConsumer interface. The IDL-file could look like:
#ifndef _MYCLIENT_IDL #define _MYCLIENT_IDL #include <CosEventComm.idl> module myClientImpl { interface ownInterface:CosEventComm::PushConsumer { void ownFunctions(in any NeededArguments) raises(OwnExceptions); }; }; #endif
Run the IDL compiler on this file by calling the ic:gen/1 function. This will produce the API named myClientImpl_ownInterface.erl. After generating the API stubs and the server skeletons it is time to implement the servers and if no special options are sent to the IDl compiler the file name is myClientImpl_ownInterface_impl.erl.
3.5 How to Run Everything
Below is a short transcript on how to run cosEvent.
%% Start Mnesia and Orber mnesia:delete_schema([node()]), mnesia:create_schema([node()]), orber:install([node()]), mnesia:start(), orber:start(), %% Install cosEvent in the IFR. cosEventApp:install(), %% Register the application specific Client implementations %% in the IFR. 'oe_myClientImpl':'oe_register'(), %% Start the cosEvent application. cosEventApp:start(), %% Start a channel using the default configuration Ch = cosEventApp:start_channel(), %% ... or use configuration parameters. Ch = cosEventApp:start_channel([{pull_interval, 10}, {maxEvents, 50}]), %% Retrieve a SupplierAdmin and a ConsumerAdmin. AdminSupplier = 'CosEventChannelAdmin_EventChannel':for_suppliers(Ch), AdminConsumer = 'CosEventChannelAdmin_EventChannel':for_consumers(Ch), %% Use the corresponding Admin object to get access to wanted Proxies %% Create a Push Consumer Proxy, which the Client Push Supplier will push %% events to. ProxyPushConsumer = 'CosEventChannelAdmin_SupplierAdmin':obtain_push_consumer(AdminSupplier), %% Create a Push Supplier Proxy, which will push events to the registered %% Push Consumer. ProxyPushSupplier = 'CosEventChannelAdmin_ConsumerAdmin':obtain_push_supplier(AdminConsumer), %% Create application Clients. We can, for example, start the Clients %% our selves or look them up in the naming service. This is application %% specific. Consumer = myClientImpl_ownInterface:oe_create(), Supplier = ... %% Connect each Client to the corresponding Proxy. 'CosEventChannelAdmin_ProxyPushConsumer': connect_push_supplier(ProxyPushConsumer, Supplier), 'CosEventChannelAdmin_ProxyPushSupplier': connect_push_consumer(ProxyPushSupplier, Consumer),
The example above, exemplifies a event system, i.e., the Canonical Push Model, where the Supplier client in some way generates event and pushes them to the proxy. The push supplier proxies will eventually push the events to each Consumer client.

Honeypot generator
A project by Bor de Kock, Pieter Kokx and Ylona Meeuwenberg
What is a honeypot?
Examples
- A USB stick with 'secret' documents
- With wrong information to catch traitors
- A server that is attractive to hackers
- To learn their new hat tricks
But they need to be believable…
- Attackers can check file metadata
- Is the metadata consistent with normal file usage?
Our project
Generating believable file useage
That is, making a fake folder appear real and used.
Literature
We were not able to find work on believable file usage.
There is literature honeypots in general
- Proactive Detection of Security Incidents [enisa, 2012] (181 pages!)
- Recent Advances and Future Trends in Honeypot Research [Bringer et al., 2012]
Literature (contd.)
As well as ways of detecting them
- Defeating Honeypots [Holz et al., 2005]
- How do you know when you are inside one? [Innes, 2006]
But these are actually quite old.
We have thus come up with a new solution.
Approach
- Analyse existing file metadata and generate a definition of believable file usage from there.
- Apply this knowledge to manipulate files.
Data sources
Trending GitHub repositories
Too many to list here
Why?
Easily available data!
The main goal is to develop a methodology to analyse
file data, to be able to generate file metadata in the
future.
Variables to analyze
- Filename (full path)
- MIME-type (determined with magic)
- Filesize
- Last modified date (looking at commit history)

Week no. 12
Molding and Casting:
- design a 3D mold, machine it, and use it to cast parts
Designing the 3D Mold
This week I did somenthing that I've never tryed before, carving a block of wax, molding and casting.
To do this i first begun by designing a piece, in this case it would be a cover for my brake ligh,
i thought i'd better make something for my final project.
The 3D model you can see below.
Machining the Mold:
With the negative blocks i went into Aspire to print directly to the machine with the parameters i thought were best.
Just needed to set the Z on the modela V-Panel (zero out the Z axis to the top of the wax).
The paths that were generated as you can be seen in the images below.
The milling...
It was my firs time doing this and i was really surprised with the finish cut result!
Casting
For the casting we We used Mold Max 30 from Smooth-On :
Frist problem : Open the bucket! Needed to see this first : https://www.smooth-on.com/support/faq/115/
The Mold Max is a tin-cured silicone rubber compound, its a 10A to 1B mix (to weight):
After all was well mixed i puted the cup into the Vacuum degassing chamber.
After mix the silicone and pour into the wax mold - this will form a NEGATIVE mold with POSITIVE space:
After waiting overnight, I removed the rubber mold from the wax mold.
For the cast I used the Smooth-Cast 300 that are bright white and virtually bubble free.
Vacuum degassing is not necessary, 1:1 mix ratio by volume.
This plastic cures really fast in 7 - 10 minutes!
And the final result:
I think it went really well for the first time:

'Meth. We're on it' campaign rolls out in South Dakota to confusion, ridicule
by Louis CasianoAn anti-drug campaign in South Dakota intended to steer viewers away from crystal methamphetamine instead inspired a backlash and ridicule.
The $1.4 million campaign, featuring people saying, "Meth, I'm on it," in coffee shops, and on a football field, paid nearly $500,000 to Broadhead Co., the Minnesota-based ad agency that created the tagline.
“We didn’t want this to look like every other anti-drug campaign,” said Laurie Gill, the secretary for the Department of Social Services, which oversaw the campaign.
South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem, a Republican, described the state's methamphetamine epidemic in a video announcing the campaign rollout, saying the problem was "growing at an alarming rate."
AOC TWEETS IN FAVOR OF LEGALIZING POT -- DAY AFTER SKEPTICAL BIDEN SAYS HE WANTS MORE DATA
"This is our problem, and together, we need to get on it," she said. "It is filling our jails and prisons, clogging our court systems, and stretching our drug treatment capacity while destroying people and their families."
Some users online were not as enthusiastic about the campaign as Noem.
One Twitter user asked if South Dakota was actually advertising the drug as opposed to deterring its use.
"Is South Dakota trying to advertise meth?" the post read.
"The only way to explain South Dakota’s new anti-Meth ads is that everyone involved in their creation is on meth," wrote another.
"Surprising anti-meth campaign in South Dakota. With the theme "Meth. I'm on it," what could go wrong?" one post read.
Noem defended the campaign, saying "Hey Twitter, the whole point of this ad campaign is to raise awareness. So I think that’s working..."

The campaign is expected to run through May and include a website, billboards and television. Gill justified the price paid to Broadhead Co., by saying meth addiction in her state is a "huge issue."
The state has seen an uptick in meth use by 12- to 17-year-olds in the last year that is double the national average. From 2014 to 2018, the number of people in the state seeking treatment for meth addiction has doubled.

The @angular/cdk/menu
module provides directives to help create custom menu
interactions based on the WAI ARIA specification.
By using @angular/cdk/menu
you get all of the expected behaviors for an accessible
experience, including bidi layout support, keyboard interaction, and focus management. All
directives apply their associated ARIA roles to their host element.
The directives in @angular/cdk/menu
set the appropriate roles on their host element.
| Directive | ARIA Role |
|---|---|
| CdkMenuBar | menubar |
| CdkMenu | menu |
| CdkMenuGroup | group |
| CdkMenuItem | menuitem |
| CdkMenuItemRadio | menuitemradio |
| CdkMenuItemCheckbox | menuitemcheckbox |
| CdkMenuTrigger | button |
The @angular/cdk/menu
is designed to be highly customizable to your needs. It therefore does not
make any assumptions about how elements should be styled. You are expected to apply any required
CSS styles, but the directives do apply CSS classes to make it easier for you to add custom styles.
The available CSS classes are listed below, by directive.
| Directive | CSS Class | Applied... |
|---|---|---|
cdkMenu |
cdk-menu |
Always |
cdkMenu |
cdk-menu-inline |
If the menu is an inline menu |
cdkMenuBar |
cdk-menu-bar |
Always |
cdkMenuGroup |
cdk-menu-group |

Import the CdkMenuModule
into the NgModule
in which you want to create menus. You can then apply
menu directives to build your custom menu. A typical menu consists of the following directives:
cdkMenuTriggerFor
- links a trigger element to an ng-template
containing the menu to be openedcdkMenu
- creates the menu content opened by the triggercdkMenuItem
- added to each item in the menuMost menu interactions consist of two parts: a trigger and a menu panel.
You can add cdkMenuTriggerFor
to any button to make it a trigger for the given menu, or any menu
item to make it a trigger for a submenu. When adding this directive, be sure to pass a reference to
the template containing the menu it should open. Users can toggle the associated menu using a mouse
or keyboard.
When creating a submenu trigger, add both cdkMenuItem
and cdkMenuTriggerFor
like so,
There are two types of menus:
You can create menus by marking their content element with the cdkMenu
or cdkMenuBar
directives. You can create several types of menu interaction which are discussed below.
All type of menus should exclusively contain elements with role menuitem
, menuitemcheckbox
,
menuitemradio
, or group
. Supporting directives that automatically apply these roles are
discussed below.
Note that Angular CDK provides no styles; you must add styles as part of building your custom menu.
An inline menu is a menu that lives directly on the page rather than in a pop-up associated with a
trigger. You can use an inline menu when you want a persistent menu interaction on a page. Menu
items within an inline menus are logically grouped together, and you can navigate through them
using your keyboard. You can create an inline menu by adding the cdkMenu
directive to the element
you want to serve as the menu content.
You can create pop-up menus using the cdkMenu
directive as well. Add this directive to the
element you want to serve as the content for your pop-up menu. Then wrap the content element in an
ng-template
and reference the template from the cdkMenuTriggerFor
property of the trigger. This
will allow the trigger to show and hide the menu content as needed.
Menu bars are a type of inline menu that you can create using the cdkMenuBar
directive. They
follow the ARIA menubar spec and behave similarly to a desktop application menubar. Each
bar consists of at least one cdkMenuItem
that triggers a submenu.
A context menus is a type of pop-up menu that doesn't have a traditional trigger element, instead
it is triggered when a user right-clicks within some container element. You can mark a
container element with the cdkContextMenuTriggerFor
, which behaves like cdkMenuTriggerFor
except
that it responds to the browser's native contextmenu
event. Custom context menus appear next to
the cursor, similarly to native context menus.
You can nest context menu container elements. Upon right-click, the menu associated with the closest container element will open.
In the example above, right-clicking on "Inner context menu" will open up the "inner" menu and right-clicking inside "Outer context menu" will open up the "outer" menu.
The cdkMenuItem
directive allows users to navigate menu items via keyboard.
You can add a custom action to a menu item with the cdkMenuItemTriggered
output.
You can create nested menus by using a menu item as the trigger for another menu.
A cdkMenuItemCheckbox
is a special type of menu item that behaves as a checkbox. You can use this
type of menu item to toggle items on and off. An element with the cdkMenuItemCheckbox
directive
does not need the additional cdkMenuItem
directive.
Checkbox items do not track their own state. You must bind the checked state using the
cdkMenuItemChecked
input and listen to cdkMenuItemTriggered
to know when it is toggled. If you
don't bind the state it will reset when the menu is closed and re-opened.
A cdkMenuItemRadio
is a special type of menu item that behaves as a radio button. You can use this
type of menu item for menus with exclusively selectable items. An element with the cdkMenuItemRadio
directive does not need the additional cdkMenuItem
directive.
As with checkbox items, radio items do not track their own state, but you can track it by binding
cdkMenuItemChecked
and listening for cdkMenuItemTriggered
. If you do not bind the state the
selection will reset when the menu is closed and reopened.
By default cdkMenu
acts as a group for cdkMenuItemRadio
elements. Elements with
cdkMenuItemRadio
added as children of a cdkMenu
will be logically grouped and only a single item
can have the checked state.
If you would like to have unrelated groups of radio buttons within a single menu you should use the
cdkMenuGroup
directive.
@angular/cdk/menu
is capable of intelligently predicting when a user intends to navigate to an
open submenu and preventing premature closeouts. This functionality prevents users from having to
hunt through the open menus in a maze-like fashion to reach their destination. To enable this
feature for a menu and its sub-menus, add the cdkMenuTargetAim
directive to the cdkMenu
or
cdkMenuBar
element.
As demonstrated in the diagram above we first track the user's mouse movements within a menu. Next, when a user mouses into a sibling menu item (e.g. Share button) the sibling item asks the Menu Aim service if it can perform its close actions. In order to determine if the current submenu can be closed out, the Menu Aim service calculates the slope between a selected target coordinate in the submenu and the previous mouse point, and the slope between the target and the current mouse point. If the slope of the current mouse point is greater than the slope of the previous that means the user is moving towards the submenu, so we shouldn't close out. Users however may sometimes stop short in a sibling item after moving towards the submenu. The service is intelligent enough to detect this intention and will trigger the next menu.
The set of directives defined in @angular/cdk/menu
follow accessibility best practices as defined
in the ARIA spec. Specifically, the menus are aware of left-to-right and right-to-left
layouts and opened appropriately. You should however add any necessary CSS styles. Menu items should
always have meaningful labels, whether through text content, aria-label
, or aria-labelledby
.

Aims
Maintenance of a library by decentralized team requires communication.
It is important that developers follow guidelines laid down by the community
to ensure that the code they create can be successfully maintained by others.
Guidelines
Developers are asked to comply with the following development guidelines.
Code that does not comply with the guidelines including the word must
will not be committed. Our aim will be to fix all of the exceptions to the
"should" guidelines prior to a release.
Contributing
Getting Started
-
Download the Commons RNG source code. Follow the instructions
under the heading "Repository Checkout" on the
Git at the ASF page.
The git url for the current development sources of Commons RNG
is
http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-rng.git
for anonymous read-only access and
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(where apacheid should be replaced by each committer Apache ID) for committers
read-write access.
-
Like most commons components, Commons RNG uses Apache Maven as our
build tool. The sources can also be built using Ant (a working
Ant build.xml is included in the top level project directory).
To build Commons RNG using Maven, you can follow the instructions for
Building a
project with Maven.
Launch Maven from the top-level directory
in the checkout of Commons RNG trunk. No special setup is required,
except that currently to build the site (i.e. to execute Maven's
"site" goal), you may need to increase the default memory allocation
(e.g. export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m) before launching
Maven.
-
Have a look at the new features that users and developers have requested
on the
RNG Wish List Wiki Page.
-
Be sure to join the commons-dev and commons-user
email lists and use them appropriately (make sure the string
"[RNG]" starts the Subject line of all your postings).
Make any proposals here where the group can comment on them.
-
Setup an account on JIRA
and use it to submit patches and
identify bugs. Read the
directions
for submitting bugs and search the database to
determine if an issue exists or has already been dealt with.
See the
Commons RNG Issue Tracking Page
for more information on how to
search for or submit bugs or enhancement requests.
-
Generating patches: The requested format for generating patches is
the Unified Diff format, which can be easily generated using the git
client or various IDEs.
Run this command from the top-level project directory (where pom.xml
resides).
Contributing ideas and code
Follow the steps below when making suggestions for additions or
enhancements to Commons RNG. This will make it easier for the community
to comment on your ideas and for the committers to keep track of them.
Thanks in advance!
- Start with a post to the commons-dev mailing list, with [RNG] at
the beginning of the subject line, followed by a short title
describing the new feature or enhancement; for example, "[RNG]
New cryptographically secure generator".
The body of the post should include each of the following items
(but be as brief as possible):
- A concise description of the new feature / enhancement
- References to definitions and algorithms. Using standard
definitions and algorithms makes communication much easier and will
greatly increase the chances that we will accept the code / idea
- Some indication of why the addition / enhancement is practically
useful
- Assuming a generally favorable response to the idea on commons-dev,
the next step is to add an entry to the
RNG Wish
List corresponding to the idea. Include a reference to the
discussion thread.
- Create a JIRA ticket using the the feature title as the short
description. Incorporate feedback from the initial posting in the
description. Add a reference to the JIRA ticket to the WishList entry.
- Submit code as attachments to the JIRA ticket. Please use one
ticket for each feature, adding multiple patches to the ticket
as necessary. Use the git diff command to generate your patches as
diffs. Please do not submit modified copies of existing java files. Be
patient (but not too patient) with committers reviewing
patches. Post a *nudge* message to commons-dev with a reference to the
ticket if a patch goes more than a few days with no comment or commit.
Coding Style
Commons RNG follows Code
Conventions for the Java Programming Language. As part of the maven
build process, style checking is performed using the Checkstyle plugin,
using the properties specified in checkstyle.xml.
Committed code should generate no Checkstyle errors. One thing
that Checkstyle will complain about is tabs included in the source code.
Please make sure to set your IDE or editor to use spaces instead of tabs.
Committers should configure the
,
and
git repository or global settings with
.
The first two settings define the identity and mail of the committer.
The third setting deals with line endings to achieve consistency
in line endings. Windows users should configure this setting to
(thus forcing git to convert CR/LF line endings
in the workspace while maintaining LF only line endings in the repository)
while OS X and Linux users should configure it to
(thus forcing git to only strip accidental CR/LF when committing into
the repository, but never when cheking out files from the repository). See Customizing
Git - Git Configuration in the git book for explanation about how to
configure these settings and more.
Documentation
-
Committed code must include full javadoc.
-
All component contracts must be fully specified in the javadoc class,
interface or method comments, including specification of acceptable ranges
of values, exceptions or special return values.
-
External references or full statements of definitions for all the
terms used in component documentation must be provided.
-
Commons rng javadoc generation supports embedded LaTeX formulas via the
MathJax javascript display engine.
To embed mathematical expressions formatted in LaTeX in javadoc, simply surround
the expression to be formatted with either \( and \)
for inline formulas (or \[ and \] to have the formula
appear on a separate line).
For example,
\(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\)
will render an in-line formula
saying that (a, b, c) is a Pythagorean triplet: \( a^2 + b^2 = c^2 \).
See the MathJax and LaTex documentation for details on how to represent formulas
and escape special characters.
-
Implementations should use standard algorithms and
references or full descriptions of all algorithms should be
provided.
-
Additions and enhancements should include updates to the User

Short intro
Let us compare the performance of C++, Matlab, Python and R when performing typical econometrical/statistical tasks. The word ‘typical’ is quite ambiguous since computational requirements can vary substantially between subfields. As such, I will consider a setting that is standard yet also computationally demanding: bootstrap inference on the Durbin-Watson test statistic. This setting is easy to understand and the computational performance of the programming languages is probably representative for a wide range of Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. MC simulations are very often needed in research when relying on frequentist statistics.
The Durbin-Watson test statistic
Consider a standard multivariate regression model $y_t^{} = \mathbf{x}_t’ \boldsymbol \beta + u_t^{}$ for $t = 1, 2, … , T$. The presence of serial correlation in $u_t$ will render standard ordinary least squares (OLS) inference invalid. The Durbin-Watson test statistic was one of the first test statistics to test for the presence of serial correlation.1 It is computed as follows:
- Calculate the OLS estimator $\widehat{\boldsymbol \beta}=(\mathbf{X}’\mathbf{X})^{-1} \mathbf{X}’\mathbf{y}$.
- Obtain the residuals $\widehat{u}_t=y_t- \mathbf{x}_t’\widehat{\boldsymbol \beta}$ for $t = 1, 2, … , T$.
- The Durbin-Watson test statisic is now computed as $DW= \frac{\sum_{t=2}^T \left(\widehat{u}_t-\widehat{u}_{t-1}\right)^2 }{\sum_{t=1}^T \widehat{u}_t^2}$.
Simple algebraic manipulations show that the Durbin-Watson statistic can be expressed in terms of the first order sample autocorrelation $\widehat{\rho}= \frac{\sum_{t=2}^T \widehat{u}_t\widehat{u}_{t-1} }{\sum_{t=1}^T \widehat{u}_t^2}$, namely $DW=2(1-\widehat{\rho})-\frac{\widehat{u}_1^2+\widehat{u}_T^2}{\sum_{t=1}^T \widehat{u}_t^2}$. Based on this result we would expect outcomes close to the value 2 if first order autocorrelation is absent. Values different from 2 indicate serial correlation. Using the Durbin-Watson statistic to carry out a formal hypothesis test is more complicated because its (asymptotic) distribution is difficult to derive. This motivates the use of a bootstrap approach.2 The specific steps are:
- Estimate $\widehat{\boldsymbol \beta}$ and compute the residual series ${\widehat{u}_t }$ as well as the Durbin-Watson statistic $DW$.
- Compute $\widehat{\rho}$ (see the definition above) and $\widehat{\varepsilon\,}_t=\widehat{u}_t- \widehat{\rho} \widehat{u}_{t-1}$ for $t=2,3,\ldots,T$.
- Draw bootstrap errors $\varepsilon_t^\star$ by resampling with replacement from $\{\widehat{\varepsilon\,}_2,\widehat{\varepsilon\,}_3,\ldots,\widehat{\varepsilon\,}_T \}$. Store these in the vector $\boldsymbol \varepsilon^\star=[\varepsilon_1^\star,\varepsilon_2^\star,\ldots,\varepsilon_T^\star]’ $.
- Set $\mathbf{u}^\star=\boldsymbol \varepsilon^\star$ (to impose the null hypothesis in the bootstrap sample), construct the bootstrap sample $\mathbf{y}^\star=\mathbf{X}\widehat{\boldsymbol \beta}+$, and compute the DW statistic from $\mathbf{y}^\star$.
- Repeat steps 3-4 $B$ times and store these outcomes in a list $\left\{ DW_b^\star \right\}_{b=1}^B$.
- For a given significance level $\alpha$, we define $q_{\alpha/2}^\star$ and $q_{1-\alpha/2}^\star$ as the $\alpha/2$ and $1-\alpha/2$ empirical quantiles of $\left\{ DW_b^\star \right\}_{b=1}^B$. We reject the null hypothesis of no serial correlation if either $DW < q_{\alpha/2}^\star$ or if $DW>q_{1-\alpha/2}^\star$.
The simulation setting
We consider a simple simulation setting to compare the different programming environments, namely
$$
\begin{aligned}
y_t &= \mathbf{x}_t’\boldsymbol{\beta}+u_t \\
u_t &= \rho u_{t-1}+\varepsilon_t, \qquad \qquad t=1,2,\ldots,T,
\end{aligned}
$$
where $T=\{100,250,500\}$. The fixed regressor matrix $\mathbf{X}$ contains a column of ones and a column that repeats the sequence $0,1,0,-1$ (orthogonal design). The error terms ${\epsilon_t}$ are standard normal and a presample of 50 observations is used to remove the influence of the initial values. We set $\boldsymbol \beta=[1,2]’ $ and vary the value for $\rho$ over the grid $[0,0.025,\ldots,0.5]’ $ (21 grid points). The resulting power curves are depicted in Figure 1. Overall, we use 1000 Monte Carlo replications where each replication uses $B=499$ bootstrap resamples.
Results and discussion
Simulations are performed on a Macbook with a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5 processor. I used serial computing. The computational times are reported in Table 1.
The conclusions from this table are unambiguous. The C++ implementation is significantly faster than the scientific programming environments of Matlab and R. However, this should be balanced against the fact that the programming itself is much easier/faster in the user-friendly environments offered by either of these languages. The results do not promote the use of Python. The computational times are longest and coding is less comfortable because matrix algebra requires an additional library (such as numpy). My conclusions are qualitatively the same as those in Borağan Aruoba and Fernández-Villaverde (2015).3

- Description
- registers the designated output parameter. This version of
the method
XOutParameters::registerOutParameter()
should be used for a user-named or REF output parameter. Examples
of user-named types include: STRUCT, DISTINCT, OBJECT, and named array
types.
Before executing a stored procedure call, you must explicitly
call
XOutParameters::registerOutParameter()
to register the type from
DataType
for each OUT parameter.
For a user-named parameter the fully-qualified SQL type name of the
parameter should also be given, while a REF parameter requires that the
fully-qualified type name of the referenced type be given.
An SDBC driver that does not need the type code and type name information
may ignore it. To be portable, however, applications should always provide
these values for user-named and REF parameters.
Although it is intended for user-named and REF parameters,
this method may be used to register a parameter of any SDBC type.
If the parameter does not have a user-named or REF type, the
typeName parameter is ignored.
Note: When reading the value of an out parameter, you
must use the
getXXX
method whose type XXX corresponds to the
parameter's registered SQL type.
- Parameter parameterIndex
- the first parameter is 1, the second is 2, ...
- Parameter sqlType
- the type of the column to register
- Parameter typeName
- the name of the type
- Throws
- SQLException
if a database access error occurs.

A Stock Parody or Stock Shout-Out, sometimes both, where circumstances somehow conspire to re-create the Signature Scene ending of King Kong (1933).
In the original film, King Kong famously grabbed the female lead character, played by Fay Wray, and climbed up the Empire State Building while planes circled overhead, shooting at him. The iconic image of the giant ape climbing the tall building has since wormed its way into pop culture and frequently attracts parodies and homages.
So thanks to King Kong, giant apes in fiction have a tendency to grab screaming women and start climbing tall buildings while being attacked by airplanes. Of course, there are lots of other ways to riff on it. Some common variations: You could have normal-sized monkey climb a scale model of a tall building. You could flip things around and have a Giant Woman carry an ape up a tall building. And it works with any Kaiju-sized creature too, not just giant apes.
Examples:
- One Twizzlers commercial re-creates the scene with everything—King Kong, the buildings, the planes — made out of Twizzlers.
- An Energizer battery commercial has King Kong climbing the Empire State Building in pursuit of the Energizer Bunny. Just as he's about to grab the Bunny, a Fay Wray Expy slams a window on his foot, causing him to fall.
- A TransAmerica Insurance commercial had King Kong climbing up the Trans America Pyramid. When he gets near the top, a girl comes out and yells, "Hey, you big ape? Who's gonna pay for all this?" (referring to all the damage he's caused). Kong then begins climbing down the building.
- Pokémon: "Slaking Kong", with May serving the role of Fay Wray and a cliff face instead of a building.
- In the opening of My Love Story!!, this is parodied by having a giant Takeo hold Sunakawa (Takeo's Bishōnen best friend) hostage while Yamato (girl of Takeo's dreams) is in a plane.
- In a Spider-Man comic, Sandman and Hydro-Man accidentally merge, creating a huge mud monster. An overt homage to King Kong follows; The creature is put on display, breaks free, kidnaps the woman over whom Sandman and Hydro-Man were fighting, climbs a high building and eventually is destroyed by police helicopters (not with bullets, but a gas that dries it out, causing it to break up into fragments of sand).
 Each of the stories in the issue was done around the idea of explaining the image.
- Cubitus: in one gag Balthazar is crushed by Kong's corpse falling from the sky.
- In one early issue of Archie Comics' Sonic the Hedgehog, Dr. Robotnik's giant ape robot King Gong falls in love with Sally and scales the Trans-Mobius Trade Center with her in hand. After Tails saves Sally, Sonic knocks Gong down by squirting with with a tank full of banana oil. Yeah.
- Superman:
- On the cover of issue #138 of Superman, the giant ape Titano climbs to the top of the Daily Planet building.
Superman: King Kong was only a make-believe gorilla menace — but Titano is real!
- This scenario appears on the cover of an old issue of Superman (#226). After growing to giant size due to Red Kryptonite, Superman is holding Lois Lane in one hand and swatting at fighter jets with the other while standing on top of a Metropolis skyscraper.
- On the cover of issue #138 of Superman, the giant ape Titano climbs to the top of the Daily Planet building.
- This was also shown happening to Batman once, as shown on the cover of Batman #162◊. He turned into an large ape-like creature, climbed to the top of a building and was fired at by what appears to be P-51 fighter planes.
- De Kiekeboes: In Bing Bong, a little gorilla mutates to enormous size and kidnaps teenage daughter Fanny, climbing on top of a church.
- In Soulsearchers and Company #2, Janocz transforms into a giant ape, grabs Kelly and starts climbing a partially constructed skyscraper. Kelly's response is to use her magic to summon toy aeroplanes to ineffectually swoop him.
- In the Bizarro comic for August 4th, 2013, a man watches out a window as Slothra (a humongous sloth) and Panda Kong (a gigantic panda) climb the Empire State Building.
- In chapter 36 of Mario and Sonic: Heroes Unite!, Giant Donkey Kong plays the role of King Kong, Amy Rose plays the role of the Damsel in Distress and the Empire Shroom Building (obviously) plays the role of the Empire State Building.
- Chicken Little: Fish out of Water re-creates the scene with paper planes and a house of cards.
- The Curse of the Were-Rabbit has the were-rabbit climbing a tower carrying Lady Tottington, while Gromit and Philip zip around dogfighting in two carousel airplanes.
- Yellow Submarine. Behind one of the doors in the Beatles' home is a scene with King Kong breaking through a window and grabbing a woman.
- In Twice Upon a Time, Flora Fauna is talked into helping record nightmares at the Murkworks, and is seen acting out this scene when Rod Rescueman shows up to "save" her.
- The opening credits to Bugs Bunny's 3rd Movie: 1001 Rabbit Tales has a Funny Background Event where a Kong expy is holding onto a skyscraper holding a sign reading "Help".
- In Ralph Breaks the Internet, the giant Ralph virus does this by carrying Vanellope and climbing the Google tower.
- The Rocky Horror Picture Show has one at the end when Rocky climbs an RKO tower with Frank-N-Furter in his arms.
- In Herbie Rides Again, one of Alonzo's Herbie-related nightmares is of him atop a skyscraper while little flying Herbies buzz around him and shoot grease at him.
- The Ray Harryhausen film 20 Million Miles to Earth ends with the Ymir atop the Colosseum, only to be shot down by tanks.
- In Gremlins 2: The New Batch a gremlin does this with a model Empire State Building and some dangling toy planes.
- Discworld: In Moving Pictures, a giant monster in the form of a girl climbs the tower of art carrying the librarian (an orangutan). Wizards on broomsticks fly by and shoot it with the archchancellor's hunting crossbow. Dibbler, watching the scene, thinks it would make a good click, but feels that something is wrong...
- Wild Cards. The wild card Jeremiah Strauss has the ability to take the form of other creatures. After a nervous breakdown, he took the form of a 45-foot-tall ape and remained that way for 20 years. Held in the Central Park Zoo in New York, he would periodically escape, grab the nearest blond woman and climb to the top of the Empire State Building. The nearest aces would beat Jeremiah up, rescue the woman and return him to the zoo.
- Misfits had an episode where a fugitive in a gorilla costume tries to escape the police by climbing a building while carrying his blond girlfriend. Also, he was really a gorilla.

2009
- Changed my mind and became Republican again
2005
- Started Trump University with Michael Sexton and Jonathan Spitalny: no grades, certificates and other bureaucracy, but program offered courses in real estate, asset management entrepreneurship, and wealth creation. 98% students gave positive reviews while studying, however some of these ungrateful gringos filed lawsuits against Trump University after the course. I had to pay $25 million to settle that...

- Started buying golf courses. They are very cheap, I have 18 of them now in USA and abroad! Also switched to the Reform Party that year
1997
- Began a multi-building development along the Hudson River, which was named Trump Place. Me and the other investors sold our shares for $1.8 billion and that was then the biggest residential sale in the history of New York City

- Acquired the Bank of Manhattan Trust Building, which was a vacant seventy-one story skyscraper on Wall Street. After an extensive renovation, the high-rise was renamed the Trump Building
1994
- Refurbished the Gulf and Western Building on Columbus Circle, turned it into a 44-story luxury property known as Trump International Hotel and Tower
1989-1992
- Ran a second hand airline called Trump Shuttle. What a waste of money, I had to sell it, now it is American Airlines Shuttle, btw
1989, 1990
- Learned about Tour de France and decided to hold my very own Tour de Trump. Is America not great enough for that cycling competition?
1988

1987
- Registered as a Republican
1985

All this to make architectural critic Paul Goldberger say in 1983 that the tower's atrium is "the most pleasant interior public space to be completed in New York in some years". At the same time I also started a repair job on the Wollman Rink in Central Park and completed the work in three months for $1.95 million, which was $775,000 less than the initial budget!

PICS: Bizos remembers life-long friend Mandela as he celebrates his 92nd birthday
by Sesona NgqakambaIt may have been his 92nd birthday celebrations but his life-long friend, Nelson Mandela, was on his mind as anti-apartheid human rights lawyer advocate George Bizos celebrated the occasion at SAHETI School in Bedfordview, Johannesburg, on Friday.
Bizos is a founding member and life vice president of SAHETI, which was established in 1974, and as part of his birthday celebrations, pupils, teachers and parents gathered for assembly in the morning to wish him well.
Pupils entertained him with songs and dance routines as he sat with a smile on his face as his life and contribution to the school and liberation of South Africa was lauded.
After cutting his birthday cake, Bizos briefly spoke to the crowd giving them tiny nuggets of the beginning of his school career and later his sojourn to university where he studied law. He said it was during his first year at the University of Witwatersrand in 1948 where he met "a man… His name was Nelson Mandela".
"He sought me out because I had made a statement in the Sunday Times…" he added.
The icon did not have many words but the smile on his face said it all as he repeatedly waved at the children who performed poems and songs for him.
Bizos' grandchild, Nicholas who is also an alumni of the school, told the gathering that it was because of his grandfather's efforts and sacrifices that they were gathered there to celebrate his life.
"As a Sahetian, I couldn't be more thankful. As a South African, I couldn't be more inspired and as your grandson, I couldn't be prouder," Nicholas said.
The school then handed over messages and a gift to him.
SAHETI School has a scholarship called the Bizos SAHETI Scholarship and Bursary Fund which assists top-performing pupils in financial need to access secondary education.

Two sets of grid to work with for different viewports
The grid consists of 12 responsive columns which respond to different screen sizes. The screen sizes in question here are:
Each row begins with a

, followed by

, where n
is replaced with the desired column size.
With some unique CSS selectors, nesting the columns is very easy, without the need to create a new row. Just declare a column of smaller size within a larger column. However, this feature has its drawbacks.
In addition to some elements misbehaving (e.g.,

), continuously nesting the columns may result in a very unsightly code. If desired, rows can be created after every 12 columns to help code readability and cleanliness.

What about screens below 768 pixels? For that, we have a different grid system. Due to the differing nature of the grid system, it is documented in a different page.

The Business of Art
Having explored software as a craft, we can now explore a few aspects of art as a business and the challenges it faces as such. This article is meant primarily as an exploration. Since this is a very difficult subject, there are no obvious and strong answers here. I do, however, discuss some possible ideas that might lead to solutions in the future.
The Business Problem
The business problem with art, of course, is that it is typically very difficult to produce money from it so that you can sustain yourself and put food on the table. This is generally true unless you are an expert of the craft in which you work. Further, one does not become an expert unless they have invested a great deal of time into their craft.
Enforcing arbitrary deadlines for art is like screaming at an unborn baby still in its warm womb to hurry up and eject itself.
The bigger problem is that true art cannot be rushed. You cannot rush that which has its own mind. It’s like screaming at an unborn baby while still in its warm womb to hurry up and eject itself.
Not only is screaming ineffective, it causes undue stress to the person carrying the baby (the artist in this case), the person doing the screaming, and of course the baby itself – if not by its own intuition of negative energy, but by proxy its host which has to endure the energy by being exposed to it.
In an ideal world, artists are free to work unencumbered on the art on which they are tasked to produce. I, of course, express an ideal that does not reflect the reality that we mostly find ourselves as a community. Whereas art reflects innovation and the desire of higher purpose, we also have the science of business that reflects the boundaries and limits of reality.
These two forces are constantly at war with each other. The problem is that in our typical software development environment we find ourselves constantly screaming at our unborn babies to hurry up their delivery schedule. I would posit that our resulting quality speaks for itself for a large part – if not all – of these cases.
Even worse, this dysfunctional behavior is perpetually rewarded financially so it is enabled as if it were an addiction – and by all intents and purposes, it is.
So, how do we combat this unseemly problem? Unfortunately, I have no panacea here. Not yet, at least. It is worth exploring some ideas I have had around this problem, however.
Cryptocurrency?
The interesting aspect of cryptocurrency at present is its raw potential towards solving some of these types of problems. I have been studying this space for about a year now. I would like to think that its promise and potential is a part of what I am building here. The problem here is the details and the time required to acquire the required knowledge. Also, the ideal is not to exactly disrupt systems as they currently stand – thereby fostering ill will, but to work within established boundaries and innovate them accordingly.
There is still a lot of unknown in this space, of course. It’s a bit “quantum” (that is, not fully understood) in its own right. But, there is potential here and enough to keep in mind as we continue the conversation.
Universal Income?
There is some chatter out there about universal income, which – as with anything dealing with numerous human beings – turns out to be a controversial subject. However, can this problem be solved with cryptocurrency? More specifically, can we explore the notion of an artist’s universal income with cryptocurrency? Or even better yet, a hungry artist’s universal income by way of cryptocurrency?
A hungry artist, to me, is one that is always by their work, which I describe more below. If an artist is able to prove that they are by their work, then they get paid a minimal amount to feed themselves by way of this theoretical cryptocurrency model. That way, we aren’t blindly spending money “just because” and we have a world where artists are producing intrinsic value for others.
Deadlines
Fundamentally, I view the work we do as an art. Certainly, there’s a “science” aspect to it, as it is typically called “computer science,” after all. However, for the sake of my discussion here, when I think of the “science” equivalent to our art, I refer to the business side of where that art is produced, as this is where the tension lies within our field of work.
The deadline is where the science of business meets the art of innovation.
Science is concerned with defining and describing limits of reality as well as the parameters of how it operates as such. In the case that I am presenting here, business serves as the science to our craft’s art, as that is where the limits and calculation of resources lie, and therefore imposed upon the artist.
Paul Graham explores an aspect of these two forces in his excellent essay Maker’s Schedule, Manager’s Schedule. Scheduling is an aspect of this tension between the art of the craft and the science of business that is being described here.
It’s Done When It’s Done
In an ideal world, an artist is able to complete their work on their own schedule without timelines. In my view, the artist is “working” if they are near their work. The pitfall with computers, of course, is that an artist’s “work” also happens to be attached to one of the greatest inventions in humanity’s history: the internet. So, it’s easy to get “distracted” and pulled into other areas that seemingly have nothing to do with what the artist is supposed to be working on, but I would suggest that what they are “distracted” with helps clear their mind, or even better, inspire them away from a roadblock or lull.
Examples
I have always respected and appreciated those projects that took the guts to somehow find the time necessary to produce their art for the market (another word that, incidentally, has “art” in it). This section serves as a little shout to my heroes here in their efforts to go against the grain and work on their product until it was completed to their satisfaction.
Each one of these have their own story on how they have combatted timelines. Each one of these stories does not have an overwhelmingly happy or successful theme to them, either. My point in exploring these examples is not to provide a solution, but to highlight that there isn’t one clean answer here. This is a very difficult problem to solve but I have a hunch if a good amount of ingenuity, creativity, and innovation is applied, then a sort of compromise can be had.
I go through these from best to worst in success.
Prophet Comic
Prophet has to be my favorite comic of all time. I am speaking of course to the old skool one, the one released in the 90’s by Rob Liefeld and drawn by the legendary Stephen Platt (easily my most favorite artist of all time).
The problem, though, is that there turned out to be a huge problem with – can you guess? – timelines imposed on Platt which resulted in a rift between him and Liefeld. The story here can easily be related to the problem space that I am describing. Reading this story in detail reveals some very interesting aspects of Platt’s thinking that I can personally appreciate. Likewise, as a business owner, I also appreciate Liefeld’s position as well: you get paid, you do the job, bruh.
The happy ending here is that Prophet went back into circulation as a revival and each issue was released when it was done, not by arbitrary deadlines. It also happened to be a very highly-valued and appreciated comic as a result.
Any surprises there?
Hero U
Hero U is a game made by the same creatives that penned the Quest for Glory series (probably my favorite PC game outside of DooM][).
This is a custom-rolled initiative that has been going since 2012, and you can read all the gory (glory?) details here. It really underscores the complexity of software and product development. However, they are in beta now after plugging at it for nearly six years and are ever so closer to a release. You have to tip your hat to them for sticking with it and continuing forward especially after going through so many deadlines and facing so many challenges.
Duke Nukem 4Ever
The last example I have is one that started out a champion for “it’s done when it’s done,” but after a while it sort of turned into a joke. Duke Nukem 4Ever is a title that ended up living up to its name in a negative way, being that it took forever to finally launch.
I bring it up here because I think it’s important to examine what went wrong here. Whereas Hero U has continued to chug along at a respectable pace, with its owners fully engaged and responsive with its community, Duke Nukem 4Ever started out hot and then seemed to grow despondent and murky.
To me, what stands out is the basic issue of hunger. Duke Nukem 3D was an overwhelming success. With success comes power, and how you handle that power is truly what defines how successful you truly are. It’s easy to get distracted with such resources and ability, and I believe that’s what ultimately happened here.
You still have to give respect to the entire crew (or crews) behind this project a lot of credit for finally kicking this thing out the door, despite its struggles and resulting quality.
Others?
If you yourself know of any examples of daring attempts to face the challenge of arbitrary deadlines, please feel free to share them in the comments below.

From there, we took a look at a few ideas that might be used to address these challenges. I then explored some known examples of projects combating the challenge of deadlines, which represent the limits of resources applied to a particular objective.
