I visited the National Museum of Computer Science in the summer of 2018 and bought perhaps my favorite shirt: it’s called the “Silicon Valley Napkin”, and is a template for everything you would need to start a high-growth tech company in the valley. And – it was short, concise, and to the point. It was essentially an outline for startups.
NHD Napkins is my attempt at building an outline for National History Day projects. It is a collection of articles and resources designed to help students become more familiar with the National History Day contest, guiding them through everything from crafting the perfect thesis statement to picking the perfect topic.
Hi there! I’m Chris Pondoc, and I am a Senior at Frederick High School. I first started participating in National History Day, and have loved competing in the contest every year after. Beginning in the 7th grade, I made it to the national competition 5 times, placing in the top 15 twice and winning numerous special awards in the process.

Nutmeg |
(ground / crushed) |
Early afternoon, I got home from class and decided for a nutmeg trip. I had done it a few times before with success so I figured I'd do it again. I was all for nutmeg because it gave me similar effects to marijuana, lasted longer, and it was legal.
I took the dose in a small cup, after stirring it up in some milk, since nutmeg doesn't mix, I ended up gagging a few times from the drink but kept it down just fine. About an hour later, a friend of mine came over.
About an 2 or 2 and a half hours after consuming the nutmeg, I began to feel it kicking in, similar to the first effects of marijuana, I started feeling spacy, with pressure on my face, and warming and reddening of my cheeks. About a half hour after this, I had made my way out to the kitchen to make my friend some coffee, then proceeded to sit in front of the refigerator because I had 'magnetic poetry' (a must for stoners). I noticed that I was more stoned than I had ever been on anything else at any other time. I began feeling somewhat like the things I was saying or thinking weren't involved with my body. I felt very euphoric. This was the first time that I had even realized that I was IN the kitchen. The only thing I remember about the kitchen was telling him different things that I had written on the fridge with the words, I totally felt like everything I was doing or saying was awesome and great, but felt very paranoid because all my friend would tell me was that I was messed up.
Around this time I started panicing, thinking I took way too much. We were sitting in my living room and I was on the beanbag chair in the fetal position. I looked awful. My eyes were bloodshot and glossy, my face was red and it felt swollen. I felt fine physically, I could have been in pain unless the nutmeg was numbing it. I also felt like I didn't want to move, I sat there with my head resting on my knees for quite sometime. I was shaking alot, I'd have sudden, strong twitches of my hands, arms, legs, and neck.  I didn't as much feel like I was going to die, but I was almost certain that if I fell asleep, I wouldn't wake up and I'd die that night.
After sitting on my beanbag for about an hour, I thought my friend was frustrated with my actions. Whether or not he was, I'm not sure. At this time I proceeded to my bedroom, stumbling down the hallway and laid on my bed in my dark room for a while trying to cry or scream, but feeling like I couldn't. I just ended up yelling in a monotone voice. All I felt was that I was dying, that night would be my last night, and that I didn't want to die that way even though I had felt absolutely no physical pain besides a slight headache. I laid there for what seemed to be for about a half hour until I decided to go back out to my living room where my friend was still sitting on my couch.
He was decorating his drum that he had brought over. I then decided to lay down on the floor and he decided to leave. I felt betrayed. If I was really overdosing on nutmeg, he should have stayed with me. I felt that he left because he was fed up with my actions. At this time it was probably about 1am. I then got on the computer online because I wanted to talk to someone so I was using AOL IM to talk to a friend of mine. She had recorded me typing, 'If I die, my existance will only grow?' I decided at some point in the conversation that I was too restless to type and that I needed someone to TALK to. At this time it was about 2am. I called another friend of mine and told him what was up. All I remember saying alot was 'I took nutmeg and I don't know.' My speech began to be more slurred and mixed up and I couldn't think, walk, or talk right. It was to the point where he was going to come over and stay with me to make sure nothing would happen.
The whole night was mostly a blur now that I look back on it. I can't even remember exactly how I felt, but I knew what I felt was sincere. For the next few days I felt hungover like nothing else after I finally passed out asleep at around 3 or 4am. For the next few days, I was extremely dehydrated and groggy. The thing about the nutmeg is that I had taken this much before and had not nearly the effect as I did that night. Needless to say, I'm too scared to do it again.

We will see helicopter money used before this grande Keynesian experiment is over.
Cryptoon20-Nov-18 03:37 PM
Tbh, if you look back at it
central banks poured what, 10.000 billion into the economy?
 If that worked, governments would be doing it.
blubbi20-Nov-18 03:54 PM
@meatspoon isn' t that what the government actually do !?
meatspoon20-Nov-18 03:54 PM
Well, i guess they already are doing it. Just giving it to their crony friends at zirp
Cryptoon20-Nov-18 03:55 PM
you dont know if it works, we do know that the money that was poured into 'the economy' to the banks didnt really support the real economy
meatspoon20-Nov-18 03:55 PM
Of course i know it doesnt work. Think about it for a minute. The currency would just be devalued at the expense of more debt.
 The cost is kicked down the road in the form of debt. And we are one step closer to financial Armageddon.
Venezuela is effectively doing just this.
Is it working for them?
blubbi20-Nov-18 03:58 PM
theres 100x more money in derivates as physical value on the world, think about that !

Cryptoon20-Nov-18 04:07 PM
@meatspoon but that is exactly what happened, only this time the banks got the money, and not the people
they printed 10.000 billion out of thin air with the stroke of a pen on the balance sheet of some central bank
Everyone got effectively a lot poorer during the financial crisis and the 'saving' of banks
But regular people dont even know/realise this
meatspoon20-Nov-18 04:11 PM
Right. I suppose I agree that printing money and giving it directly to the people would be less bad than giving money directly to bankster oligarchs... but neither is going to solve any of the fundamental problems of our banking/monetary system.
and both actions will further accelerate us into the inevitable collapse
Cryptoon20-Nov-18 04:12 PM
at least if you give it to the people nothing sticks to the hands of the banksters
Is the better of two bad options
meatspoon20-Nov-18 04:12 PM
i disagree with that. as long as they control the system, they benefit
if half the people who receive the money put it in the bank, the banksters get to loan out 10X that amount and create more debt serfs
so you would still be pumping fake money into a rigged system
blubbi20-Nov-18 04:14 PM
the whole Crypto Industrie got a capital of 160 billion , only the EZB printing 60 billion every month, think abou that !
meatspoon20-Nov-18 04:15 PM
but i agree with the "better of two bad options." but the other thing that sucks about helicopter money is the idea of feeding this growing sense of entitlement of the Free Shit Army. More and more people these days think they are entitled to everything.... health care, transport, smart phones, etc. As a society, we have to be very careful about feeding this mentality

the more dependent on government handouts that people get, the more painful it will be for society/people when the gravy train derails

Cryptoon20-Nov-18 04:39 PM
wonder if we will see a green candle on btc/usd today
btw I agree @meatspoon dont get me wrong. But I think the main problem is that the entitled people dont realize where the 'free' stuff is coming from.

They dont realize they pay for it themselves one way or the other

Golf: Todd seizes Mexico lead in bid for back-to-back PGA wins
MEXICO CITY: American Brendon Todd, coming off a victory two weeks ago in Bermuda, fired a six-under par 65 on Sunday (Nov 17) to seize a one-stroke lead entering the final round of the US PGA Mayakoba Classic.
Players went directly into the final round, rushing to try and complete the last 36 holes before sunset at Playa del Carmen, Mexico, after heavy rain washed out all play Thursday.
Todd won his first US PGA crown in his 77th tour start at the 2014 Byron Nelson Championship then ended a five-year win drought two weeks ago by capturing the Bermuda Championship and hopes to collect titles in consecutive starts.
Todd opened his third round with his lone bogey, but followed with birdies at the second and third holes, another at the sixth hole and back-to-back birdies at the ninth and 10th holes.
He added birdies at the par-5 13th and par-4 16th to top the leaderboard.
Fellow Americans Harris English and Vaughn Taylor began the fourth round one stroke back on 197 with countryman Adam Long and Mexico's Carlos Ortiz another stroke adrift.
American Pat Perez and Mexico's Alvaro Ortiz shared sixth on 201.


The data required to recreate a Storyteller playback can be downloaded from the 'Options' link in the bottom right corner of the playback window. The file that will be downloaded to your machine is a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) file. This is the minimal amount of data needed to animate a playback. Find out more about options here.
Tip: This is the file that can be used when sending a playback to another person or when uploading to a playback repository service.
It is possible to share a playback with others by downloading the web page created by Storyteller. Every playback
in a browser is a complete, self-contained html file that can be distributed to others. Use the browser's 'Save As'
feature (ctrl/cmd + s
) to save the html file to a computer's hard drive. The playback can be viewed by
opening up the html file using the browser (ctrl/cmd + o
). A web server is not required to view a playback.
The VS Code plugin is not required simply to view playbacks either. All a viewer needs in order to watch a playback is
a web browser and the single html file.
Once an html playback file has been saved it can be distributed to others by storing it on a personal web server, sending it as an email attachment, adding it to a course learning management system, etc.
Tip: Because of the way dynamic web pages work new comments added to a playback will not be present in a downloaded playback using the 'Save As' approach unless a fresh copy is requested from the internal web server. The easiest way to ensure that all the comments are present is to refresh the browser window before performing the save.
If a viewer has access to a playback html file then they can download the code at any point in the playback. VS Code is not required in order for a viewer to download the code. All a viewer needs to do is click the "Download Files at this Point" button and save the zip file that gets created. After the zip file is expanded all of the code in the playback will be in the unzipped directory in the same state as when it was downloaded.
More information about downloading code can be found here here.
If a viewer does have VS Code and the Storyteller plugin installed then they can build off of
the code in any playback. The viewer will move the playback to the point where they want to build from
and download the code by clicking the "Download Files at this Point" button. Next, they will unzip the
file that is downloaded. Using VS Code they can open the project directory (this is the directory
that has a sub-directory called .storyteller
in it). VS Code will notice that this is a
Storyteller project and begin tracking any new changes that are made.
Tip: There is a registered developer that is associated with every downloaded Storyteller project. Remember to create and register a new developer before making any new changes. Find out more about managing developers here.

Seven stones to stand or fall by Diana Gabaldon
About the book
Author: Gabaldon, Diana
Title: Seven stones to stand or fall: A collection of Outlander fiction.
Publication: New York : Delacorte Press, 2017. ISBN<PHONE_NUMBER>601.
DAISY audio format narrated by Jeff Woodman, Davina Porter, Allan Scott-Douglas, Robert Ian Mackenzie. CELA library call number DA54159. 544 pages in the paper edition; 24 hrs., 20 mins. as a recorded book.
About the story
If you are unfamiliar with Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series, they are very enjoyable. They involve time-travel from the mid-1950s to the mid-1800s, Scotsmen, broadswords and political intrigue. If you don’t mind a bit of sex, they are very good stories, written with humour and action in about equal measures. Read them in chronological order, though, or they can get confusing.
This collection consists of novellas the author wrote as “bulges” on the timeline of her longer works, and they mainly feature characters who are non-primary in the longer books or happen before the timeline for the regular series.
- The custom of the army sees the Lord John Grey go to Quebec for a court martial and arrive just in time for the siege and the battle of les plaines d’Abraham.
- The space between tells the story of Joan, Laoghaire’s (pronounced Leery) daughter, as she travels to a convent in France.
- A plague of zombies, in which Lord John visits the Caribbean and meets with supernatural phenomena.
- A leaf on the wind of all hallows tells the story of Roger’s father in WWII.
- Virgins tells of the adventures of a very young Jaime Fraser as he learns the ropes of mercenary life from Ian Murray.
- A fugitive green delves into the love life of Hal, Lord John’s elder brother.
- Besieged sees Lord John Grey at the siege of Havana.
I realise that the descriptions above assume you are familiar with the Outlander series. I have read a good number, but by no means all of them.
One of the best things about this CELA book is that the authors notes are actually read by the author, Diana Gabaldon herself. Her wry humour comes through excellently in her own words.
The other narrators are excellent as well, however, and the book itself is varied and delightful. Because they all happen in a similar ambience, this does not feel like a book of random short stories but they can be read with a lot of time in between them and not suffer in the least.
Recommended?
If you are a fan of the Outlander series, you will love this collection.

My autobiography
I was born in the skirts of the Sierra Madre Oriental mountain, in a small and hot town called Ciudad Victoria, in the state of Tamaulipas, Mexico in the summer of 1991.
Nothing really exciting happened until I was 8 years old, that's when i signed up to Karate. I quickly advanced levels by winning kata and kumite tournaments(belts) until i reached my second degree black-belt in Goju-Ryu
style Karate-Do (same style Dwight Schrute from "The Office" trains).
I went to a couple of universities for 2 different engineering degrees; Mechatronics and Telematics. I was young and wanted to make money so i dropped-out and moved to Cancun to work and party. Little did i know money
doesn't come by easily to those without experience or special skills and talents. I started working as a Time-Share sales rep, but i had no experience, only a little bit of english, which ended up being enough to land the position,
but not to really make a living out of a comission-only position. I finally gave up and moved back to my hometown a year after, put on a suit and got a job in banking; I hated it.

For a long time, we were unhappy with having to care about security issues and Linux distribution maintenance on our various Raspberry Pis.
Then, we had a crazy idea: what if we got rid of memory-unsafe languages and all software we don’t strictly need?
Turns out this is feasible. gokrazy is the result.
All are updated using the same command.
On a regular Linux distribution, we’d largely use systemctl’s start, stop, restart and status verbs to manage our applications. gokrazy comes with a convenient web interface for seeing process status and stopping/restarting processes.
Sometimes, an interactive busybox
session or a quick
tcpdump
run are invaluable. breakglass allows
you to temporarily enable SSH/SCP-based authenticated remote code
execution: scp your statically compiled binary, then run it
interactively via ssh.
Due to no C runtime environment being present, your code must compile
with the environment variable CGO_ENABLED=0
. To
cross-compile for the Raspberry Pi 3 or 4,
use GOARCH=arm64
. If your program still builds, you’re
good to go!
After building a new gokrazy image on your computer, you can easily
update an existing gokrazy installation in-place thanks to the A/B
partitioning scheme we use. Just specify the -update
flag when building your new image.
A tiny amount of configuration is built into the images (e.g. hostname, password, serial console behavior). In general, we prefer auto-configuration (e.g. DHCP) over config files. If you need more configurability, you may need to replace some of our programs.


More than 1,000 LGBTQ members hold pride parade in Delhi
The members of LGBTQ community and their supporters marched through New Delhi on Sunday to celebrate India's sexual diversity, which they said is progressing but still has a long way to go to become a more accepting place for them.

More than 1,000 members of the LGBTQ community and their supporters marched through New Delhi on Sunday to celebrate India's sexual diversity, which they said is progressing but still has a long way to go to become a more accepting place for them, reported AP. (Express Photo: Gajendra Yadav)
Carrying rainbow flags, balloons and placards and dancing to the beat of drums, they demanded self-identification in any gender for legal recognition rather than first registering as a transgender and then providing proof of surgery to authorities, as suggested by a government bill, reported AP. (Express Photo: Gajendra Yadav)
They said in a statement that the bill, yet to be approved by India's Parliament, contradicted a landmark judgment by India's top court last year striking down a colonial-era law that made gay sex punishable by up to 10 years in prison, reported AP. (Express Photo: Gajendra Yadav)
The statement said the bill ``directly discriminates against the community and strips them of dignity.'' They urged lawmakers to make changes to the bill before it becomes law. (Express Photo: Gajendra Yadav)
One of the participants told AP, "There has been no acceptance. Only the law has changed. But till the time laws in the home change, we will not get acceptance." (Express Photo: Gajendra Yadav)
While another said, "We get to tell society that we exist, we are there,'' he said. ``And you know people who are all around us, be it the police, be it the security forces or any xyz person, they get to see us and they get to realize that yes they (LGBTQ) are also here, they are also a part of society."

Display scales are dynamically and non-linearly modified to enable display of current value and predefined upper and lower limits
o Reducing the resolution away from current value but maintaining the desired resolution at the current value
The software algorithm employed is flexible and can take a number of different mathematical forms to achieve the desired appearance
Resolution and legibility of the image is kept at conventional display values in the linear potion of the display
Eliminates unwanted roll cues from altitude and speed tapes commonly experienced in highly dynamic situations
DNLD Benefits
Creates market discriminator as displays no longer have to sacrifice range for resolution
o Maintains legibility and resolution in screen region where they are critical (current value)
Enables the retention on screen of meaningful display end points at all times (target bugs for instance are always in view)
o Significantly improved altitude and airspeed awareness
Commonly used predictors such as airspeed and altitude trend vectors remain useable in highly dynamic situations
o They do not saturate on the display

Sensor Fusion Key Features
Marinvents sensor fusion package is available under flexible licensing terms:
o Either as a patent license or
o As a software license
o Either exclusive or non-exclusive
Sensor models can be readily updated with customers own real-world sensor models
Marinvent can work with customers to tailor the system to customers needs and to integrate the software into the customers platform
Marinvent-designed probability map expert system implemented to aid operators in detection and tracking of targets
The probability map incorporates two novel heuristics:
o It subtracts the probability associated from any sensor which is not in contact with the target; and
o When a sensor loses contact with the target, it retains the probability data from the sensor in question, but with the probability diluted spatially according to the maximum anticipated speed of the target
Sensor Fusion Benefits
Expert system algorithms provide operator with best estimate of a Target Of Interests (TOIs) position and velocity
o Takes the guesswork out of target location and tracking
o Results in reduction of localization time of an order of magnitude over raw data mode
o Results in a reduction of tracking errors of an order of magnitude over raw data mode
o Significant reduction in stress and workload for operators
Modular and flexible design means that the sensor fusion algorithms are independent of the physical sensor system, working on post-processed sensor data
o May be used with disparate sensors with dissimilar profiles
Provides customers with a readily-available discriminator over their competitors systems
Can be retrofit to existing systems
Shortcomings with existing Angle-Of-Attack (AOA) and ice detector technologies that are currently employed for aircraft continue to allow numerous aircraft accidents, particularly during or immediately after take-off, with iced or contaminated airfoils.
Marinvents Patented APM is an airflow monitoring technology that accurately assesses the stress on an airfoil at the airfoil surface itself by measuring the airflow turbulence intensity, which directly correlates to the airfoils proximity to stall. The APM system is the only system that measures the state of the airflow over any airfoil surface in all phases of flight and in all weather conditions. The APM tells the pilot or avionics systems the margin of lift remaining to the stall for that airfoil even when it is iced, contaminated or degraded.
Application Spaces
Green aircraft operation/efficiency in all weather conditions and phases of flight
Aircraft safety under icing, wing contamination and wing degradation conditions
Protection of airframe manufacturers to fight accident claims due to airframe loss under icing conditions
Aircraft safety during take-off roll and high speed stall conditions
Prevention of Unmanned Air Vehicle loss due to icing/contamination
Extension of UAS range and payload in cold climates
APM Key Features
APM directly measures aerodynamic performance at the source
o The lifting surface of the airfoil (wing, tail, etc.)
Measures airflow turbulence intensity (R) resulting from boundary layer tripping / separation
Provides aircrew, UAS operators and avionics systems with vital information that is currently not available to them
Provides margin to stalls that occur for any reason
o Exceeding stall angle of attack
o Contamination at leading edge or lifting surface
o Mach buffet
Shows location of stall so pilot can take the appropriate action to recover
o Allows critical decisions to be made fast that can significantly improve safety & survivability
Allows the vehicle to be flown in most efficient manner at all times and under all contamination / weather conditions
o By flying R
Allows for optimization of use of anti-ice and de-icing systems
o Use only when actually necessary
Allows for approach speeds to be optimized for actual real-time conditions to reduce brake wear
APM Safety Benefits
Existing stall warning and ice detection systems provide little or no advanced warning of impending stall conditions and little useful information about the actual contamination conditions at the airfoil surfaces
o Crew has little time to react appropriately and little useful information to base the decision upon (causing accidents)
APM provides real-time data that provides pilots/avionics systems & UAS operators much more
o Time to make appropriate decisions
o Information to use to make the best decisions
o Safety & survivability
It has the potential to almost eliminate these accidents by providing significantly earlier warning
APM Green Benefits
Current civilian and military aircraft (and UAS) have no means to measure aerodynamic performance at wings or stabilizers (stress on the airfoil)
APM provides real-time data that allows pilots/avionics systems to optimize the fuel spend based upon current, actual, airfoil conditions
o Less fuel used better carbon footprint
o Less brake wear as a result of optimized landing speeds
o Lower cost of operations
o Provision of operational data that can help to determine optimal maintenance (cleaning, painting, etc.,) based on ROI
Since use of de-icing fluids significantly lowers airfoil efficiency, being able to only use such fluids when critical provides for huge cost and efficiency savings
o APM is the only system that can accurately and effectively provide the necessary feedback to enable this optimization

Hi non-tech friend. I'm going to tell you about a simple problem I somehow solved in an elegant way. Ready? Let's go.
Once upon a time, I got stuck on a problem. After hours and hours of searching high and low on the internet
to figure out why, and trying every variation of code there was, I realised I was using the name of the variable defined
in the previous exercise...basically, that means I was using the next-door neighbour's house key to try and open my door.
Once I realised that, I was equally relieved and frustrated....but mostly relieved.
Though I was barking up the wrong tree 90% of the time, I did use a range of problem-solving techniques.
I whispered what I was trying to achieve ASMR-style into my new microphone (also known as the rubber ducky method).
I googled and waded through the haystack that was the internet. I went through the emotions of feeling incompetent, frustrated with myself
and playing "Thank you, Next!" because that's kinda wanted to do with the entire kata challenge...just move on.
After all that, I learnt that I need to take several chill pills, as well as being sure to nail syntax to save time. I also learnt to be
extra attentive to what's in front of you before searching online to make drastic changes to your code, because maybe it's
only really just a small thing that's out of place.
My preferred method of problem-solving for this Sprint is probably the Rubber Ducky method. The error messages can sometimes be of help, but when that's all you seem to see again and again, it's no surprise that it can kind of fall to the side in favour of other options. Console.logging is something I used in one of the challenges to see where I was at and see what I had to work with. Google is great but can be a waste of time if you don't know EXACTLY what you want. I feel so uncomfortable asking my peers for anything. I come from a competitive background where peers are competition. The mindset that's difficult to shake is that they have no reason to help me and I have no reason to trust them. I know that there is the ability to ask facilitators, and I guess I could, but I knwo they are busy and would rather figure it out alone. Lastly, reflection is wonderful when you already have the skills, but I feel too new to have anything to reflect with, so perhaps in the future that will be a great option for me.
