Certificate logs are append-only ledgers of certificates. Because they're distributed and independent, anyone can query them to see what certificates have been included and when. Because they're append-only, they are verifiable by Monitors. Organisations and individuals with the technical skills and capacity can run a log.
User agents - browsers like Chrome and Safari - help enforce Certificate Transparency.
Check out the documentation on Github {{< svg "static/img/arrow-links.svg">}}
Monitors cryptographically check which certificates have been included in logs.
If you subscribe to a CT monitor for your domain, you get updates when precertificates and certificates for those domains are included in any of the logs checked by that monitor. Monitors can be set up and run by anyone

CT sits within a wider ecosystem, Web Public Key Infrastructure (Web PKI), which allows secure, encrypted communication that can be set up by non-specialists. Without encryption, communication between servers and browsers can be read by anyone. When the ecosystem works well, that information is private.
When an end user accesses a website that has an HTTPS URL, they’re interacting with Web PKI. It is a system of everything needed to issue, distribute and verify cryptographic keys and certificates, and tie them to the right domain. At the core of the Web PKI are cryptographic keys that enable cryptographic operations like authentication, authorisation and encryption. A certificate is, essentially, a binding of a cryptographic key (in this case a public key) to a web domain by a Certificate Authority (CA).
CT brings transparency to the SSL/TLS certificate system that supports the web. SSL/TLS protocols underpin HTTPS and Web PKI. A lack of transparency weakens the reliability and effectiveness of encrypted connections, which can compromise critical TLS/SSL mechanisms. As a result, they can enable a wide range of security attacks, such as website spoofing, server impersonation, and man-in-the-middle attacks.
Web PKI depends on a system of public and private keys. This system is called asymmetric cryptography. Something encrypted with one key of a key pair can only be decrypted with the corresponding key: you can share one of these keys as a public key while keeping the other private. This allows for uses like creating digital signatures and securely exchanging other cryptographic keys. TLS’s use of digital certificates employs both these properties. Digital signatures are used to authenticate a certificate, and the public key in a certificate is used to facilitate negotiating which cryptographic key to use when encrypting a session. Find out more about PKI in this blog post.
In Web PKI, Certificate Authorities create digital certificates which map public keys to domains on the internet: the CA is used by User Agents to perform this role. To begin, the website owner generates a new key pair and uses that to generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) that is used to prove the website operator controls the private key associated with the public key in the request. Next the website owner proves to the CA that they control their domain, there are a couple of different ways for them to do this. The CA can, for example, ask them to create a DNS record with random value demonstrating they control the domain. Once domain control has been verified, the CA takes the public key from the request and places it, along with the verified domains into a digital certificate that is signed by the CA. It is then returned to the website owner. With the certificate and private key in hand, the domain owner can renew and revoke the certificate.
Web PKI depends on CAs acting as trustworthy gatekeepers by issuing certificates only to the right parties and by avoiding giving additional permissions accidentally to those parties. An important part of how CAs meet these obligations is to design their systems so they are resilient to failure. That is partly achieved by keeping the most important private keys in vault-like facilities to protect them from physical and logical security threats.
These private keys are associated with what are called "root certificates" which are distributed by user agents as "trust anchors" signaling the holders of the associated private keys are trusted to perform this role. These root certificates and their private keys are used to create intermediate CA certificates (sometimes called missing CAs), each with their own private keys, that are used to issue the web server certificates that make TLS on the web work in real time.
A website then provides its certificate and those of its issuers as a "certificate chain" to the user agent, which in turn uses them to verify that the website certificate is associated with one of these "root certificates". The user agent does this by verifying each certificate signature, ensuring the each certificate in the chain was ultimately issued by a certificate authority that the browser trusts. This process is commonly called certificate chain verification. All of this is described in more detail in RFC 5280.

During the 7th Summer School on Cyber and Computer Security held by Technion Insrael Institute of Technology and Hiroshi Fujiwara Cyber Security Research Center, several talks were given on trusted execution and hardware side channels. Talks on day 1 focus mostly on Intel SGX technology. Those from day 2 are more on security issues on trusted execution. On day 3, more side channel related topics were discussed.
This page includes selected talks with slides. Original website can be found here. Unfortunately, videos of those talks are not available online.
Day 1
Software Guard Extension – from dream to reality
Speaker: Ittai Anati
Abstract:
In 2015, Intel launched its 6th generation Core, codenamed Skylake, that implements a new ISA for security – Intel® SGX. We’ll start with the fundamentals of SGX1, and gradually dive deeper into more advanced topics of SGX.
- SGX1 fundamentals
- Advanced SGX1 topics and SGX2
- Flexible launch control, VMM Oversubscription, key separation and sharing
- Provisioning, attestation and recovery
Attacks and Defenses for Intel SGX
Speaker: Taesoo Kim
Abstract:
The Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX)—a gamechanging feature introduced in the recent Intel Skylake CPU—is a new technology likely to make secure and trustworthy computing in a hostile environment practical. At a high level, SGX consists of a set of new instructions that can be used to create secure regions (i.e., enclaves) to defeat attacks that aim to steal or tamper with the data within an enclave. Without a doubt, we expect that SGX will allow developers to protect sensitive code and data from unauthorized access or modification by software running at higher privilege levels such as an OS or a hypervisor.
However, SGX is merely a set of instructions; it lacks support from the OS and libraries. These deficiencies allow programmers to easily introduce naive yet preventable bugs that often lead to critical security holes in an enclave program. Further, designing a correct and secure SGX infrastructure is also far from straightforward; enclave programs rely on the support of an underlying OS, but their security models exclude the OS from the TCB. This unconventional dependency makes various attack vectors, which are often considered impractical in a traditional setting, immediate and practical, especially in a cloud environment.
In this tutorial, I will first provide a security-focused introduction to Intel SGX, including its internal mechanisms to implement the security features. Then, I will explain known security concerns, including recent research outputs from the community: e.g., memory safety issues, cache/branch side-channel attacks, and rowhammer attacks. I will not just only demonstrate these attacks but also guide you to the proper defense mechanisms.
Day 2
Application-oriented Security: Secrets Management and SideChannel Protection for TEEs
Speaker: Christof Fetzer
Abstract:
This tutorial will first introduce the problems one faces when trying to run unmodified applications inside of TEEs. Alternative solutions are presented but the focus will be on the use of cross-compilers and runtime support to execute applications inside of TEEs. We will introduce some example applications running inside of SGX using the SCONE platform.
Second, we will motivate the need for integrating secrets management and remote attestation. We will motivate the problem of remote attestation and configuration management and show how to solve this. We show how that helps with transparent protection of files and secrets.
We show how attestation can help to protect against some side-channel attacks. The main focus will, however, on a novel approach to protect against L1/L2-based side channels attacks.
The house is built on sand: exploiting hardware glitches and side channels in perfect software
Speaker: Herbert Bos
Abstract:
For years, we have tried to address security problems by fixing software bugs and misconfigurations. For critical systems we may even choose to formally verify software to guarantee the absence of bugs. However, the question is whether getting rid of bugs in the software is sufficient. In this talk, I will discuss vulnerabilities in hardware that allow attackers to compromise systems even in the absence of software bugs. In particular, these vulnerabilities offer attackers the read and write primitives needed to leak and modify sensitive information. For the write primitive, we will look at the evolution of the Rowhammer vulnerability in DRAM chips that has matured from a mere curiosity to a serious attack vector across all sorts of systems in just a few years. For read primitives, we will discuss several advanced side channel vulnerabilities, such as found in memory deduplication and Translation Lookaside Buffers.
Day 3
From black to white (box) attacks on secure systems - Or why do your light bulbs need a firmware update
Speaker: Eyal Ronen
Abstract:
I will go over the process of RE and attacking the Philips Hue. It is partially based on the IoT Goes Nuclear paper (iotworm.eyalro.net). But I will mostly describe the process of breaking the secure SoC, including what we tried and didn’t work.
Side-Channel Attacks on Human Secrets
Speaker: Yossi Oren
Abstract:
Side-channel analysis techniques have been traditionally applied toward the recovery of computer-related secrets such as cryptographic keys. Humans, however, also share secrets of their own with their computers – for example, their browsing habits, their political or religious beliefs, or sensitive information about their health. This secret information is increasingly vulnerable to emerging low-cost side-channel attacks that are highly scalable, employing malicious peripheral devices or turning components of a system against itself. There are countermeasures which can be applied to protect systems from the theft of human secrets via side channel attacks. These countermeasures, however, have different designs, and exact different costs, than those designed to protect against the theft of cryptographic secrets.
What if your phone’s battery could talk? Inference attacks using malicious battery
Speaker: Mark Silberstein
Abstract:
Mobile devices are equipped with increasingly smart batteries designed to provide responsiveness and extended lifetime. However, such smart batteries may present a threat to users’ privacy. We demonstrate that the phone’s power trace sampled from the battery at 1KHz holds enough information to recover a variety of sensitive information. We show techniques to infer typed characters to reduce the password search space; to accurately recover browsing history in an open-world setup; to reliably detect incoming calls and the photo shots including their lighting conditions. Combined with a novel exfiltration covert channel that allows communication from the battery directly to a remote server without installing software on the phone, these attacks turn the malicious battery into a stealthy surveillance device. We deconstruct the attack by analyzing its robustness to sampling rate and execution conditions, and identify the sources of the information leakage to find the best way to defend against the attacks. We discover that an attacker can distinguish the browsed website by observing the GPU or DRAM power traces alone. However, the CPU and other power-hungry peripherals such as a touch screen are often the primary sources of fine-grain information leakage. We highlight the challenge to defend against the attacks by designing and evaluating several possible mitigation mechanisms. In summary, our work shows the feasibility of the malicious battery and motivates further research into system and application-level defenses to fully mitigate this emerging threat.

In Foff lay patches of glue strewn higgledy. Tarps billowed in a gale that was never a zephyr. There's a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza. Crack out the canisters of Strontium 90.
So, at any rate, says weedy poet Dennis Beerpint in his new book, Gibberish From An Unalloyed Nitwit. Interviewed by a scribbler next to a filbert hedge, the poet was at pains to punctuate his prattle with words beginning with P. But the scribbler's tape recorder malfunctioned, so all record of what Beerpint said is lost, as lost as a flea in a jerrycan.
What we might want to know is where Foff lies, and whether there are fleas there. On the other hand, armed with an early morning pint of milk and a copy of The Daily Hammer Of Christ, we might prefer to stroll out to where the steamrollers wheeze in the dawn light, as milky as the milk in our carton, and sing wassailing songs of long ago penned by intoxicated German Fafnirs.
Beerpint's bucket did not have a hole in it. In Foff, it rested on a shelf in his shed. His shed was precisely twenty times the size of his head. That is how you measure sheds, and huts, and cabins, and kiosks. Look at them all lined up, ordered by size, in multiples of Beerpint head measurement. Now watch as they are flattened by steamrollers.
Now dip your fingers in those patches of glue. It is glue that will hold things together.

Multi-tenancy - Infinispan as a Service (also on OpenShift)
In recent years Software as a Service concept has gained a lot of traction. I’m pretty sure you’ve used it many times before. Let’s take a look at a practical example and explain what’s going on behind the scenes.
Practical example - photo album application
Imagine a very simple photo album application hosted within the cloud. Upon the first usage you are asked to create an account. Once you sign up, a new tenant is created for you in the application with all necessary details and some dedicated storage just for you. Starting from this point you can start using the album - download and upload photos.
The software provider that created the photo album application can also celebrate. They have a new client! But with a new client the system needs to increase its capacity to ensure it can store all those lovely photos. There are also other concerns - how to prevent leaking photos and other data from one account into another? And finally, since all the content will be transferred through the Internet, how to secure transmission?
As you can see, multi-tenancy is not that easy as it would seem. The good news is that if it’s properly configured and secured, it might be beneficial both for the client and for the software provider.
Multi-tenancy in Infinispan
Let’s think again about our photo album application for a moment. Whenever a new client signs up we need to create a new account for him and dedicate some storage. Translating that into Infinispan concepts this would mean creating a new CacheContainer. Within a CacheContainer we can create multiple Caches for user details, metadata and photos. You might be wondering why creating a new Cache is not sufficient? It turns out that when a Hot Rod client connects to a cluster, it connects to a CacheContainer exposed via a Hot Rod Endpoint. Such a client has access to all Caches. Considering our example, your friends could possibly see your photos. That’s definitely not good! So we need to create a CacheContainer per tenant. Before we introduced Multi-tenancy, you could expose each CacheContainer using a separate port (using separate Hot Rod Endpoint for each of them). In many scenarios this is impractical because of proliferation of ports. For this reason we introduced the Router concept. It allows multiple clients to access their own CacheContainers through a single endpoint and also prevents them from accessing data which doesn’t belong to them. The final piece of the puzzle is transmitting sensitive data through an unsecured channel such as the Internet. The use of TLS encryption solves this problem. The final outcome should look like the following:
The Router component on the diagram above is responsible for recognizing data from each client and redirecting it to the appropriate Hot Rod endpoint. As the name implies, the router inspects incoming traffic and reroutes it to the appropriate underlying CacheContainer. To do this it can use two different strategies depending on the protocol: TLS/SNI for the Hot Rod protocol, matching each server certificate to a specific cache container and path prefixes for REST. The SNI strategy detects the SNI Host Name (which is used as tenant) and also requires TLS certificates to match. By creating proper trust stores we can match which tenant can access which CacheContainers. URL path prefix is very easy to understand, but it is also less secure unless you enable authentication. For this reason it should not be used in production unless you know what you are doing (the SNI strategy for the REST endpoint will be implemented in the near future). Each client has its own unique REST path prefix that needs to be used for accessing the data (e.g. http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8080/rest/client1/fotos/2).
Confused? Let’s clarify this with an example.
Foto application sample configuration
The first step is to generate proper key/trust stores for the server and client:
The next step is to configure the server. The snippet below shows only the most important parts:
Let’s analyze the most critical lines:
-
7, 15 - We need to add generated key stores to the server identities
-
25, 30 - It is highly recommended to use separate CacheContainers
-
38, 39 - A Hot Rod connector (but without socket binding) is required to provide proper mapping to CacheContainer. You can also use many useful settings on this level (like ignored caches or authentication).
-
42 - Router definition which binds into default Hot Rod and REST ports.
-
44 - 46 - The most important bit which states that only a client using SSLRealm1 (which uses trust store corresponding to client_1_server_keystore.jks) and TLS/SNI Host name client-1 can access Hot Rod endpoint named multi-tenant-hotrod-1 (which points to CacheContainer multi-tenancy-1).
Improving the application by using OpenShift
Hint: You might be interested in looking at our previous blog posts about hosting Infinispan on OpenShift. You may find them at the bottom of the page.
So far we’ve learned how to create and configure a new CacheContainer per tenant. But we also need to remember that system capacity needs to be increased with each new tenant. OpenShift is a perfect tool for scaling the system up and down. The configuration we created in the previous step almost matches our needs but needs some tuning.
As we mentioned earlier, we need to encrypt transport between the client and the server. The main disadvantage is that OpenShift Router will not be able to inspect it and take routing decisions. A passthrough Route fits perfectly in this scenario but requires creating TLS/SNI Host Names as Fully Qualified Application Names. So if you start OpenShift locally (using oc cluster up) the tenant names will look like the following: client-1-fotoalbum.<IP_ADDRESS>.nip.io.
We also need to think how to store generated key stores. The easiest way is to use Secrets:
Finally, a full DeploymentConfiguration:
If you’re interested in playing with the demo by yourself, you might find a working example here. It mainly targets OpenShift but the concept and configuration are also applicable for local deployment.

Maharashtra political crisis LIVE Updates: NCP chief Sharad Pawar says no question of joining hands with BJP, Ajit pawar only creating confusion
Maharashtra political crisis LIVE Updates: The three parties - Congress, Shiv Sena, and NCP have shifted their MLAs to resorts to prevent them from poaching.
by NewsX BureauAmid political uncertainty in Maharashtra, Shiv Sena, Congress, and NCP have moved their MLAs to resorts to prevent poaching from BJP. Reports said NCP has shifted its MLAs to a Renaissance hotel in Mumbai while the Congress shifted their MLAs to JW Marriott to keep the MLA flock together. Earlier, just after the results, Congress MLAs were taken to Jaipur.
On Saturday, Devendra Fadnavis was sworn as the CM and Ajit Pawar as his deputy. Ajit Pawar was removed from the position of NCP legislative party leader by Saturday evening and was replaced by Jayant Patil, another senior leader. The political drama continued till late Saturday evening as Shiv Sena Congress and the NCP filed a petition in the Supreme Court against the Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari for inviting Devendra Fadnavis to form the government in the state. The apex court ordered Devendra Fadnavis govt to produce the support of MLAs, Governor’s order over the government formation.

"Truce is concrete, philosophy is fruitless"
So this page is about fruitlessness.
Majority people don't understand what the mathematics is all about and what is the power of this science. I will try to explain this. Let's consider a simple example. You known, that for any natural numbers a,b,c the following is true: (a+b)+c == a+(b+c). But how do we known this is true? This is, in fact, an infinite set of propositions, one for each triple (a,b,c)! It is not possible to verify all of these identities by checking them per each triple! In the arithmetic foundations this property is proved using the induction principle. Using the logical deduction we are able to prove this infinite set of propositions. In other words, we are able to comprehend the infinity. Even if you are dealing not with infinity, but with a finite, but a large set, the logical deduction is the only way to state some properties of this set. Mathematics has the power to control the infinity and to bring an ultimate truce in many real cases.
Programming is about building some logical machines. It is, in fact, the engineering of some virtual entities. Historically, the computing arose from the mathematical logic and the algorithm theory. The Turing machine is a kind of prototype for all real computers. The developing of a good software is impossible without a good mathematical thinking. It is especially important in the modern multi-threaded or event-driven software, where it is not feasible to trace all execution scenarios. In a single-threaded program you can follow a program execution step-by-step, but once you have several threads of execution, the number of possible execution states becomes incomprehensible (combinatorial explosion). You must use logical statements and the logical deduction to understand how such programs are working.
Yes, that is the major difference between programming and manufacture. The purpose of manufacture is the reproduction of the same thing again and again. Reproduction of a program can be done instantly by the command copy. The purpose of the programming is to create something new, unique.
So developing a program we create a new quality to make the word better, safer, friendly etc. Or non-quality to make the work worse, risky, hostile etc.  To where, to another globe, perhaps? To ruin it too? There is no escape. Humanity will learn how to control the power of the software of will be crashed by it. The power which comes from the command copy. When you program a quantity, you program a bug quantity.
What is the difference between a good programmer and a bad one?  Good spends most time to learn, understand and design a good, structured, mathematically correct code and a short time to make it running. Bad is not capable to learn much, deeply understand a subject and tools, he writes whole novels of poor literature code and then spends most of the working time to make it running. Somehow. Good automates its work. It creates software components and tools for repeated tasks. Bad is destined to do and hate a manual job.
In the software development quality becomes quantity. That is the key point. There is no such thing as a deadline. There is a goodline. Deadline is a badline. Don't go towards it. Well developed code grows faster, it incorporates new features smoothly, it can be well tested, defect fixes are much simpler. The proper strategy in a large-scale development is to maintain a high code quality from the start to the finish. Prototype and redesign! Test comprehensively! Make a reliable software from a reliable software components!
In the soft history there were several examples, how a premature generalization led to a bad software. The first example is the UNIX paradigm: everything is a file. And that is totally wrongful. Socket is not a file. Keyboard and mouse are not a file. UNIX paradigm simplifies the system interface, but makes hard or impossible to work correctly with non-files in nature objects. Recall socket option functions, for example. This is an excellent illustration how an inadequate control interface forces to implement handmade serialization/deserialization through opaque control bottleneck.
Another good example is the STL approach to work with containers and algorithms. The natural way to work with data in a tree is the usage of recursive algorithms and that does not fit to the concept of iterators.
Simply like that. Ugly code is a bad code. The sense of beauty may seem irrelevant, but, in fact, it is important both in science and engineering. Good product is not just useful, it is also aesthetic. So use the sense of beauty as a guide.
There is no such thing as "good for everybody". "Good for everybody" means "good for nobody". Design you software components like a good tailor. To make a good suit make it suit. It means don't develop a universal components, good for an abstract everybody. Know how do you suppose to use it and make it good for a particular purpose. And a thing good for somebody has a chance to be good for manybody (but not for everybody). You will find many such things in CCore, so don't be surprised.
Efficiency is the most important guide in the programming. Programming itself can be considered as the efficient mathematics. It not only leads to fast code, but also to well-developed code.
The first step to the code efficiency is to make it well-structured. You cannot optimize a spaghetti code. If the code is well-organized, then you can identify parts, critical to improve performance, and work on them.
The second — no fat. Use efficient algorithms, use appropriate data structures, use simple means to solve simple tasks.
Third — leave to the compiler the most of optimization job. Compilers can solve many (but not all) optimization tasks much better, than humans. Modern compilers are good in the "local" optimization. So focus on making the code "optimizable" and leave the routine optimization work to the compiler. You should learn, what the compiler can do and what cannot and why.
I like the metaphor of the basket with apples. Peoples can put an apple to the basket or can get an apple from it. If the basket is empty you have to wait until somebody else put an apple. This is a metaphor of semaphore. Why metaphors are important? Because if you know a metaphor you can easily derive a precise definition of the software entity from it. You can specify a set of methods and its meaning, you can understand how to use an object without the reading tons of manuals. Metaphor is a seed. It can grow to a mature software component. Good software is metaphoric.
Metaphor is the most powerful weapon of the human mind to struggle with complexity. Using them you turn on the most deep and powerful human mind ability.
Filthy programmers make a lot of errors. There is no problem to find them, usually you can read the code and find a lot. But what's about a good one? When you write a good code, how about errors? How to catch a black cat in a dark room? Despite the common misunderstanding, it is not too much difficult actually. The REAL problem is: how to prove there is no cat? It is possible to create a defectless software, even a complex one, both theoretically and practically. But if you have one, how to prove it?
There is only one reliable way. Prove to prove. The same way as we prove mathematical theorems. In the pure mathematics we are able to build very complicated mathematical constructions and prove their properties by the logical deduction. The same way is good for the software development. Good programmer does not just write code. He formulates and proves different code properties. Therefore, good programmer must have a well developed mathematical mind. Unfortunately, modern development tools does not record this part of job.
There is a difference between the pure mathematics and the software development though. In the software development to cover all significant code properties you must prove a huge number of simple statements. So to make it feasible it is necessary to build the code in such a way, that this number will not be insane. And here we come to different software development techniques, like functional, object and abstract decompositions.
Functional decomposition arose from an observation, that some action sequences are repeated again and again. Object decomposition arose from an observation, that some data combinations and methods of manipulations on them are repeated again and again. Abstract decomposition arose from an observation, that software entities can be "parametrized" by another software entities. Each time we repeat some build again and again, we can repeat its property proofs too. So a good software decomposition not only allows us to build a complex software, but it allows to make it correct too.


[gecode-users] Why do we need to update variables for propagators

Hi,
The update function copies once, otherwise it redirects the pointer to the created copy.
This is classical idea from copying garbage collection, you could for example check Cheyney’s algorithm (Gecode uses a more specialized variant of this).

Subject: Re: [gecode-users] Why do we need to update variables for propagators
Dear Christian,
Thanks very much for your replying. I did some experiment on the BIBD(7,3,7) benchmark. I checked the profile after utilizing the two versions: one-for-each, GLOBAL_ONE. The calls of the update function cost 60.81 and 8.50 seconds by one-for-each and GLOBAL_ONE respectively. While the propagate function totally costs 5.73 and 7.64 seconds respectively. Even though GLOBAL_ONE is slower when doing filtering, it wins for the less calls of update function.
A variable is really only a pointer to a variable implementation which is copied at most once.
You mean no matter how many update calls of a variable during a copying, it would be copied at most once? If so, why would we need to update these variables in a copy function of propagators as we have done it in the Space copy function?
Yours,
Zoe

A dozen people have come forward since I asked last week for volunteers to make short screencasts showing how they program. I just sent them a sample problem to work on to test things out (see below the fold); the videos they create won't be made public, but I hope it gives readers an idea of the scale of problems we're going to be looking at. If you have suggestions for interesting problems of a similar size, please add them as comments on this post.
Hello, and thank you once again for volunteering to help Software Carpentry by recording a screencast to show people how you program. To test out your system, I'd like you to record yourself solving the problem described below using any tool or tools you like, on whatever kind of computer you prefer. Use whatever recording tool you like (a demo version of Camtasia, QuickTime, xvidcap, ...), and save in whatever video format is easiest. Please:
Write a command-line program called 'total' to add up the numbers in a data file. The input file's name is given to the program as its sole command-line argument; its only output is the sum of the numbers in the file (if the file does not contain any numbers, the output is 0.0). The file may contain any number of lines (including none at all); each line may contain at most one floating-point number, and may also contain leading or trailing whitespace. (Lines containing only whitespace, or nothing at all, are allowed, and should be ignored.) For example, if the file 'numbers.txt' contains:
22 31.3 +5.0e1 -1
then invoking the program as:
$ total numbers.txt
should print 102.3 on a line by itself.


Inline vs. Inline block
8/10/15
Inline is an attribute that is used in CSS, cascading style sheets. Inline is used the same way letters are typed out, one after another across a line. Whereas inline block, not only has the same function as inline, but it also behaves like a block too. Inline block is capable of setting such as width, height, top, bottom, margins, and paddings.

Twisted IM (Instance Messenger) is a multi-protocol chat framework, based on the Twisted framework we've all come to know and love. It's fairly simple and extensible in two directions - it's pretty easy to add new protocols, and it's also quite easy to add new front-ends.
Code flow
AccountManager
The control flow starts at the relevant subclass of baseaccount.AccountManager
.
The AccountManager is responsible for, well, managing accounts
- remembering what accounts are available, their
settings, adding and removal of accounts, and making accounts
log on at startup.
This would be a good place to start your interface, load a
list of accounts from disk and tell them to login. Most of the
method names in AccountManager
are pretty self-explanatory, and your subclass can override
whatever it wants, but you need to override __init__
. Something like
this:
1 2 3 4 5 6
... def __init__(self): self.chatui = ... # Your subclass of basechat.ChatUI self.accounts = ... # Load account list for a in self.accounts: a.logOn(self.chatui)
ChatUI
Account objects talk to the user via a subclass of basechat.ChatUI
.
This class keeps track of all the various conversations that
are currently active, so that when an account receives and
incoming message, it can put that message in its correct
context.
How much of this class you need to override depends on what
you need to do. You will need to override
getConversation
(a one-on-one conversation, like
an IRC DCC chat) and getGroupConversation
(a
multiple user conversation, like an IRC channel). You might
want to override getGroup
and
getPerson
.
The main problem with the default versions of the above
routines is that they take a parameter, Class
,
which defaults to an abstract implementation of that class -
for example, getConversation
has a
Class
parameter that defaults to basechat.Conversation
which
raises a lot of NotImplementedError
s. In your
subclass, override the method with a new method whose Class
parameter defaults to your own implementation of
Conversation
, that simply calls the parent
class' implementation.
Conversation and GroupConversation
These classes are where your interface meets the chat
protocol. Chat protocols get a message, find the appropriate
Conversation
or GroupConversation
object, and call its methods when various interesting things
happen.
Override whatever methods you want to get the information
you want to display. You must override the hide
and show
methods, however - they are called
frequently and the default implementation raises
NotImplementedError
.
Accounts
An account is an instance of a subclass of basesupport.AbstractAccount
.
For more details and sample code, see the various
*support
files in twisted.words.im
.

% extends "template.html" %> <% block title %>Imperium<% endblock %> <% block content %>
Imperium is a game for 2-4 players. Your objective is to move your king to the golden square in the middle. The players are assigned a random color, and take turns to make moves, following the order: Red, Green, Blue, Yellow.
There are three unity types: King, Thief and Warrior.
Whenever one of your units (but not your king!) gets into the golden square, you can perform a power move. Select only one from the list bellow.
Each unit can activate this power only once! They gain a small white circle on the top left to show they can't activate it again.
You can kill any unit in the game, except for kings.
You can plant a tree anywhere on the map, except for the middle.
You can remove any tree on the map.
You can play again immediately!
If your king is killed, you are out of the game, and all your units are destroyed.
You win by moving your king into the golden saquare or by killing every enemy king.
While playing, the game will display the moves in this notation:
Normal moves: c3d2
Captures: c3d2!
Power moves:
e4e5*a2$
e4e5*e3+
e4e5*a2%
e4e5*~
e4e5!*...
c3d2!-
e4e5#
c3d2!-#
This is the full board state notation: @a1:k1 @a2:t1 @b2:w1 @d3+ @e8+
The first three describe unit location: k = king, t = thief, w = warrior, followed by the unit's owner (1-based). Next is a list of trees.
The game keeps track of a list of moves. The first set is sent by the server and initializes trees and units. The server also sends you your player number. After that, the clients calculate the board state incrementally and let you move if it's your turn. The movements are sent back to the server and broadcasted to all other players.
There is no server-side validation! You shouldn't play this with people you don't trust, because they can cheat ;)


s6-linux-init
Software
skarnet.org
The s6-halt program
s6-halt sends a signal to process 1 in order to halt the machine;
or, with the -f option, it performs an immediate hard shutdown.
Interface
s6-halt [ -h | -p | -r ] [ -f ]
- s6-halt sends a signal to process 1.
- It then exits 0.
Options
- -h : halt. The command will order a halt (i.e. the system will
be shut down, but the power will remain up), which means
sending a SIGUSR2 to process 1. This is the default.
- -p : poweroff. The command will order a power off, which means
sending a SIGUSR1 to process 1.
- -r : reboot. The command will order a reboot, which means
sending a SIGINT to process 1.

Formula 1 aiming to be carbon neutral by 2030
It might be a mecca of internal-combustion speed, but even F1 needs to move with the times.
by CarAdvice- shares
Darcy Foster • Formula 1 has this week revealed it plans to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2030.
The proposal encompasses not only the cars themselves, but all aspects of the sport, from planning and logistics to on-track activity and hospitality.
Speaking at the reveal of the plan, Formula 1 chairman and CEO Chase Carey said: "In launching F1’s first-ever sustainability strategy, we recognise the critical role that all organisations must play in tackling this global issue".
Current Formula 1 internal-combustion engines (ICE) are the most thermally efficient in the sport's history, with Mercedes-Benz able to achieve a thermal efficiency of more than 50 per cent from its all-conquering power unit – nearly double what normal production cars offer at just 30 per cent.
This means modern F1 engines can extract more of the available energy from their fuel, allowing teams to create more power in a more frugal manner for fast cars with lower CO2 emissions.
Given over one billion of the 1.1 billion vehicles on the road today feature an internal-combustion engine, the sport believes it has an opportunity to help reduce global carbon emissions by pioneering efficiency-improving technologies that could trickle down to road cars.
Commenting on the plan, Jean Todt, president of global motorsport governing body the FIA, said "the FIA welcomes this Formula 1 initiative".
"It is not only very encouraging for the future of motorsport, but it could also have strong benefits for society as a whole."
Formula 1 will also ensure all events are sustainable by 2025, committing to reusable materials and recyclable waste management, as well as ‘greener’ ways for fans to reach each circuit.
Currently, Formula’s 1 electrically-charged cousin, Formula E, leads its contemporaries as one of the most sustainable FIA-governed motorsports.
Not only are the cars themselves 100 per cent electric, but logistics partner DHL has developed a sustainable approach to transportation utilising road, rail, air, and sea travel.
Although Formula 1 uses similar transportation methods, the F1 circus travels over 131,000 kilometres over the course of a season, considerably more than the 70,000km covered by the Formula E calendar.
Don't think Formula 1 has forgotten the racing, though. Regulation changes coming in 2021 should offer more competitive racing thanks to redesigned cars and power-units, and a closer title race because of a $175 million dollar price cap.
Sometimes it seems change is the only constant in Formula 1, with restless regulators constantly tinkering with the rules to create closer racing, and a closer connection to road-going cars.
Major regulation changes have been consistent throughout the sport's near 70 year history, from the introduction of control tyres and elimination of fuel stops, to banning electronic aids and downsizing engines from 3.0-litre V10s to the current 1.6-litre turbo-hybrid V6s.
Formula 1 will work alongside teams, partners, and promoters to support its seismic environmental targets, with its emissions reduction strategies commencing "immediately".

Formula 1 aiming to be carbon neutral by 2030


This page celebrate and keep live the classic Mini.
The year was 1957, and in post-World War II England the Suez Crisis had sent fuel prices soaring, leading many to start wondering if the large, gas-guzzling vehicles of the day made much sense. A CAR BUILT FOR EVERYONE. So Sir Leonard Lord of the Morris Company issued his top engineer, Alec Issigonis, a challenge: design and build a small, fuel-efficient car capable of carrying four adults, within economic reach of just about everyone. As fate would have it, the challenge of fitting so much function into such a small package inspired a couple of historic innovations. The two most important innovations Issigonis came up with were to create more room in the cockpit: pushing the wheels all the way out to the corners and turning the engine sideways giving the car more stability in tight turn and more passenger space on the inside. The world had never seen a car quite like it. And when the first Mini launched in 1959, the public was a bit baffled.
THE SPIRIT OF THE STREETS. Soon enough, people began to recognize that the Mini was not merely a car. The unique combination of classic British style in a low-cost, small size, fun and nimble package came to symbolize independence and spontaneity. The very essence of the youthful 1960s culture. A CULTURAL PHENOMENON. One of the most remarkable elements of the Classic Mini’s popularity was how its infectious spirit transcended traditional class barriers. From hipsters and mods to milkmen, rock stars and royalty to rally racers. Everyone could have efficiency, fun and freedom, motoring in a Mini.
A THRILL RIDE. It soon became apparent that, while intended to create more passenger room, Issigonis’s numerous layout innovations also helped make the Mini a standout performance car. Wheels at the corners meant a wide, go-kart stance and nimble handling. And the transverse engine kept weight over the front tires, helping provide great balance and grip. It was 1961 when the humble little people-mover fell into the hands of British racing legend John Cooper. A more powerful engine, bigger brakes and a few tuning tweaks later, the Classic Mini Cooper 997 was introduced. And a rally demon was born. Before long, the nimble little Classic Mini was outracing and outlasting the larger, more powerful, but clumsier sedans of the day. Visits to the winner’s circle became a regular event as Mini chalked up numerous international race wins – including 3 at the prestigious Monte Carlo rally from 1964 to 1967.
Pics of Mini. Happy 60th birthday Classic Mini!

SCORM Elements
A new feature in v1.1 of the RELOAD Editor is support for editing SCORM 1.2 packages. SCORM (the Shareable Content Object Reference Model) builds heavily on the IMS Content Packaging specification and so IMS CP and SCORM v1.2 packages are very similar, but there a few important differences:
This section will describe the SCORM v1.2 specific features.
Types of SCORM Package
SCORM Packages can be used for two purposes - either to store and transport content as 'assets' for future use, or as organisations of content for delivery via a Learner Management System LMS.
SCORM Resource Packages are the simpler of the two package types - the manifest provides content metadata and describes the files which make up the resource, but the organization element is empty and no information about how the content is structured is kept as can be seen in the following screenshot of a valid SCORM Resource Package.
SCORM Content Aggregation Packages are more complex, and in this case at least one organization must be available to describe how the content is structured. SCORM Content Aggregation Packages are similar to IMS Content Packages, but can make use of the extra elements defined by the SCORM v1.2 specification.
SCORM Metadata
SCORM Metadata is based extensively on the IMS LRM specification, and ADL (Advanced Distributed Learning) do not impose a specific application profile. The difference between SCORM Metadata and IMS Metadata is that SCORM Metadata can be kept in a file external to the content package.
If you are creating a SCORM v1.2 package and wish to make use of externally held metadata, then you must use the ADL:Location element.
SCORM Specific Elements
The main area where SCORM v1.2 differs from IMS CP v1.1.3 is in the support it provides for interaction with Learner Management Systems (LMSs). An extra five elements are defined which describe these interactions, and the LMS can use these elements to define a set of rules which control a learners progression through content to be defined. Each of these elements is optional.
prerequisites
This element defines any other Item which the learner must have completed satisfactorily before they are allowed to access the current Item. This can be used to define multiple routes through learning materials.
maxtimeallowed
This is the time (in seconds) that a LMS would permit access to the item for. For instance you may wish to restrict access to a simple assessment, forcing all learners to complete within 15 minutes.
timelimitaction
This is the action specified if the 'max time allowed' is exceeded. The user is provided with a choice of four built in actions:
datafromlms
This element allows initialisation data to be sent from the LMS to the Item on launch.
masteryscore
This is a normalised score (between 0 and 100) which must be achieved to indicate satisfactory completion of an item.
Once an Item carries SCORM infromation, its Icon changes from a simple rectangle to one containing a central spot. In addition a plus sign appears to the left side of the Item and when expanded, a list of the SCORM elements utilised appears. An expanded Item node is shown below:

THE GENERAL'S DAUGHTER ** (out of five stars) A review by Jamey Hughton
Starring-John Travolta, Madeleine Stowe, James Cromwell, Timothy Hutton,
James Woods, Clarence Williams III and Leslie Stefanson Director-Simon West Rated 18A
MOVIE VIEWS by Jamey Hughton: http://welcome.to/movieviews
I don't appreciate it when a thriller manipulates the viewer into thinking the plot is interesting, when in fact it's ludicrous. In the case of The General's Daughter, the plot is more than capable of intriguing you to a certain point. But at this juncture in the story, the movie begins to fall apart like a crumbling cookie. This predictable summer thriller is only sporadically involving, and that is unfortunately not enough to compensate for all of it's detailed flaws.
Get past one moment early on where John Travolta exercises his southern accent, and you're likely to survive this entire movie. Travolta plays Criminal Investigations Divisions officer Paul Brenner, who's working undercover at a military base when another situation arises: the apparent rape and murder of a young female officer (Leslie Stefanson). It turns out that the victim is the daughter of General Joe Campbell (James Cromwell). Let the investigation begin.
With the assistance of fellow CID investigator Sarah Sunhill (played rather on-the-sidelines by Madeleine Stowe), Brenner uncovers what appears to be an intricate and bizarre homicide case. Things begin to get marginally engrossing when we meet Colonel Moore (James Woods), a former commanding officer of the deceased who has a few secrets up his sleeve. Woods submits another scene-stealing performance here as he oozes authority, surrounded by clouds of smoke emitted from his cigar. With echoes of his supporting role in True Crime, in which he duked it out with Clint Eastwood in enjoyably profane verbal exchanges, he makes every moment believable. Here though, the intense dialogue comes care of confrontations with Travolta, as the two send mindful, knowing glares across the room. There are many scenes such as this in The General's Daughter, in which the veteran cast performs splendidly under pressure, but the circumstances that tie these meetings together are difficult to absorb.
Director Simon West (Con Air), shows a watchful eye of delivering a stylish looking thriller, but he fails miserably when it comes to the intellectual part of it. The General's Daughter is, more often than not, a predictable and unexciting mess. It does not help matters that the plot is virtually actionless, dragging it's heels all the way at a mind-numbing snails pace. A few brief action scenes, marvelously handled in the editing department, show that the movie could have delivered such a more proficient package. From a director who does such a great job of staging explosions and miraculous stunts, I suggest West should stick with mindless, rip-roaring action features and attempt to avoid future projects like this.
Still, the movie is certainly not without it's merits. The acting is very good from the majority of the experienced cast. The performances range from commanding (Travolta) to electric (Woods) to stiff-as-a-board (Cromwell, who doesn't show off his real talents here). Madeleine Stowe manages to hold her own for a while, but as the female lead in an action-thriller, she doesn't pull through sufficiently.
One of the problems with the execution is that it's very predictable. >From minute one, I had few doubts about the identity of the killer in question. The script even unwillingly points him out for us, using familiar techniques to hide his guilt until the unmasking toward the end. In all fairness, we've seen many of the devices used in The General's Daughter put to greater effect in other films.
The secrets behind the girl's mysterious death are explained gradually, but by the resolution we have tunneled through so much malarkey that it feels unnecessary and surprisingly silly. The General's Daughter is not a terrible movie, and it is involving enough to sustain a viewer's attention span for a certain period of time. But it just could have been so much better.

I've defined a prime field, and tried to define a function that maps int
topf
, but somehow timeout at the function...
def pf {p : ℕ} := {e // prime p ∧ 0 ≤ e ∧ e < p} variable {p : ℕ} def int_to_pf (x : ℤ) : @pf p := ⟨x, begin end⟩
while my friend succeed with
def pf (p : ℕ ) [prime p] := {e // 0 ≤ e ∧ e < p} variable p : ℕ variable [pp: prime p] def int_to_pf (x : ℤ) : @pf p (prime p) := ⟨x, begin end⟩
Why is there a difference?
you are casting an int
to a nat
in both examples, this times out searching for a coercion
In the second example it fails fast only because it gets stuck in the type of the theorem: @pf p (prime p)
is not well typed because prime p
does not have type prime p
sorry for a mistake, I think my friend wrote
pp: prime p def int_to_pf (x : ℤ) : @pf p pp ...
Where did I cast int to nat?
Aren't elements in pf all have value of type nat?
Your x in int to pf is an int?
yes, but aren't val of elements of type pf also int?
You defined p in pf as a nat
But the second example can work?
lean does not have a subtyping relation, so if something has type pf p
it does not have type int
. But more importantly you are going the other way around here: x
has type int
and you are putting it in the first component of pf p
, which you didn't write explicitly (it is the type of e
) but is nat
.
Oh!! Got it! thanks a lot!!

When I started working on my personal website a couple months ago, I had zero experience with HTML & CSS. Quite frankly, it showed: my spacing was all out of whack and the site just looked very basic with dull colors. In addition, the DBC curriculum required us to blog a couple times each week. I've always been a rather private person, and the thought of sharing my feelings on the web made me rather uncomfortable. So initially, jefft23.github.io, was an unpleasant experience for me.
Fast forward to the end of Phase 0, and I feel much better about things. I just went back and re-read my blog posts, and I'm rather proud of the content. It took me a while at first to write them, especially the cultural blog posts. But now I find myself timeboxing 60-90 minutes, and I'm able to produce quality work in that time because I've gotten more comfortable with putting my thoughts on paper.
Regrettably, I wasn't able to stick with the site maintenance program I set up in Week 2. But this final week of Phase 0 afforded me plenty of time to revamp the site. I turned to my wife and cousin for their advice, and their suggestions were in sync with what I was thinking. Here are the changes I made based on their feedback:
- Changing the color scheme: At first, I wanted to give my site a rather serious feel with darker colors. I wanted to give off the vibe of reading the newspaper when people were reading my blog posts. Unfortunately, it just ended up looking depressing. So the first thing I did was add a little color to make it a more playful and aesthetically pleasing. The dark gray/maroon scheme was replaced with a light blue/light gray look.
- Changing the blog index page: Previously, this was just a listing of the blogs like so: "Week 1 Technical Blog", "Week 2 Cultural Blog" etc. It was a very boring format. The page has been broken into two subsets now, and the posts listed by actual title so that the reader more accurately knows what he's about to read before clicking.
- Adding a footer with links: There was no footer previously; my e-mail address is now listed along with icon links to all of my social media sites.
The site is still a work in progress that is far from being done. There's so much more content I would like to add as time permits. But considering I had no exposure to website building 2 months ago, I am both happy with the results so far and grateful for the skills I've acquired.

I volunteered as a planning commission member for the Town of Monument for four years. While serving as a Commissioner, I was selected to serve on the committee that updated the comprehensive plan for our Town. It was the first time our plan had been overhauled in decades. We received and incorporated input from our citizens as well as citizens from the surrounding area. I was the chairperson for the Planning Commission during my last year of service. I am a member of the El Paso County Bar Association. I volunteer as the Colorado Ambassador for my undergraduate alma mater, Loyola Marymount University.
I volunteer on a weekly basis for Colorado Legal Services. While there I advocate for those indigent individuals within our greater community (the area covers El Paso, Teller, Pueblo and Park counties) who have legal needs within my area of legal practice.
The redistricting process is important and the inclusion of voices representative of our state means the result represents the decision of all Coloradans. I think I could contribute positively to the process.
I have the ability to discern fact from opinion and weigh the relevant facts in an impartial manner with the goal of making the best decision possible. When opinion is properly identified, narrowing down the relevant question makes it easier to reach a consensus.
As an attorney, I apply the facts of any client to the law and provide counsel regarding their legal options and the best path forward. The process requires the application of common sense, logic and reason as well as application of the law and ethical concerns.

Manyisa's Long-Term Sundowns Future Up In The Air?
by Soccer LadumaOupa Manyisa’s injury could put his long-term future with Mamelodi Sundowns up in the air.
The midfielder underwent an operation on his Achilles tendon after rupturing it in October this year, with it being revealed that the player is expected to be ruled out for the rest of the season.
Read more: 6 Players Who Could End The Year Without A Club
However, as reported in issue number 1149 of Soccer Laduma, indications are that Manyisa’s contract with the Brazilians will come to an end on June 30, 2020 and his injury and lack of game-time will influence whether or not he will continue on Sundowns’ books beyond the current season.
The Brazilians’ addition of Sammy Seabi at the beginning of the season also sees the 31-year-old with more competition in the midfield and his injury couldn’t have come at a more critical time.
According to Siya sources, the parties concerned are yet to open up talks regarding a new deal at the Chloorkop-based club, although for now, the player is focusing on his recovery.
However, it remains to be seen what decision Sundowns will look to make in the coming months and whether or not Manyisa will still be at the club next season.

Boris Johnson on the campaign trail
Sir, – Ken Andrew (Letters, November 16th) disagrees with Donald Clarke’s description of Boris Johnson’s “casual” election video as “transparently bogus and irresistibly laughable” (“Awright, Boris! The meaning of Boris Johnson’s walkabout video”, Online, November 15th). But how else to characterise Mr Johnson’s distinctly lacklustre performance on the campaign trail so far?
The British prime minister’s lowlight was at a Somerset primary school when struggling to remember the words to the nursery rhyme The Wheels on the Bus. More seriously, he was unable to give a straight answer to a four-year-old girl who asked him the direct question: “How many children do you have?”
Despite current strong Tory polling, the opposition parties must be heartened by how strikingly awkward Boris has been when meeting the public.
Indeed, he’s proving to be a vacuous personality with nothing to offer beyond a blatantly selfish notion of what’s good for himself and the slogan: “Get Brexit Done”. – Yours, etc,
