THE ELEMENT OF CRIME (1984)
"The morality of the police is no different from that of society."
3 out of ****
Starring Michael Elphick, Esmond Knight, Me Me Lai, Jerold Wells; Directed by Lars von Trier; Written by von Trier and Niels VÝrsen; Cinematography by Michael Ellis
Sombre. Enigmatic. Brooding. Opaque. Ambitious. THE ELEMENT OF CRIME, Lars von Trier's first film, inspires adjectives and defies explanation. It is a sophisticated experiment in film noir, at once homage and update and critique. It is the type of work that can only exist late in the life of a genre, when all the patterns are established and known, and so can be unstitched, picked apart, reworked.
It is similar, in many ways, to Paul Auster's "New York Trilogy," also written in the early 80s: both works take the building blocks of the detective story and rearrange them, turning them into the foundation for complex existential and epistemological explorations. We begin with detective Fisher (Michael Elphick), returning to England after years of exile in Cairo. He meets his former boss and mentor, Osborne (Esmond Knight), who has written a book called "The Element of Crime," which outlines an investigative methodology based on identification with the criminal. Fisher is then called to investigate the latest in a series of brutal child murders. Naturally, he applies Osborne's theories to the case.
He learns that the murders may or may not have been committed by a man named Harry Gray, who may or may not be dead, and who may or may not be preparing to kill again, to complete the (hypothetical) pattern he has begun. Fisher retraces Gray's route from one murder scene to the next, trying to intuit the pattern and anticipate the next crime; as he does so, he begins to identify, on some level, with the (hypothetical) murderer. It's complicated.
Superficially, much of what goes on follows the familiar routines of film noir: the detective is a loner with his own peculiar code of honour; he meets an elegant, sexy woman (Me Me Lai) who may be connected to the crime, and has an affair with her; his pursuit of the truth is haunted by a fatalistic sense of irrelevance. But traditional detective stories expand: as the detective meets new suspects, finds new evidence, a larger pattern emerges. The story grows as it goes. Here, the story contracts, shrinks, coils in on itself, becomes impacted and internal: Fisher becomes his own suspect, as he doubts his motivations, his capabilities, and perhaps his sanity.
Or maybe that's not what happens. The film is ambiguous and non-literal to the point of being maddening. It encourages many interpretations, but ratifies none of them. Consider a scene in which we see Osborne on TV, answering questions about his theory-cum-book: "The element of crime," he says, "sets up a series of mental exercises designed to improve our understanding of the behavioural pattern of the criminal." Of course, the title of his book is also the title of the movie, and so as we hear this the meaning is doubled: Osborne is explaining how his book is to be read, and von Trier is explaining how his film is to be understood. Or is he? As we move on, the statement's usefulness diminishes, and soon we disregard it as overly simplistic.
This postmodern play of frames within frames, texts within texts, readings within readings, is typical of the movie as a whole, which contrives to be at once dense with import and thoroughly pointless. You can follow the ideas through, try to unravel the tangled knots of significance, but why bother? Von Trier does not have a story of his own to tell: this a story about other stories. It is art theory disguised as art. There is no sense of engagement, of passion, of urgency: it is otiose and abstracted, and so its relationship to quotidian life is tangential at best. You could easily write a compelling thesis on THE ELEMENT OF CRIME, but only with difficulty could you extract any practical wisdom, any human insight.
This is partly because the story does not take place in anything like the "real" world, but rather in an impressionistic refraction of post-war industrial Europe, a post-holocaust England where the place names are German, a rain-dark realm of derelict edifices and unsmiling citizens. All is sepia-toned, slow-moving, shrouded in murk and shadow, seen from strange angles. Von Trier uses silence and slow motion with subtlety and precision, deepening the vivid sense of the unreal, and he returns again and again to particular images--broken glass, a horse, blue light--so that they take on elusive, oneiric significance.
It is a splendid piece of cinematic showmanship, a tour-de-force of atmosphere, and for ambience alone, the film has few equals--which is not surprising, given that von Trier is one of the finest directors at work today. But THE ELEMENT OF CRIME is all ambience, all potential: it envisions a world in which memorable things might happen, but then they do not. When he found his own stories to tell, in ZENTROPA and BREAKING THE WAVES and THE KINGDOM, von Trier came into his own. In this, his debut, he shows that he knows what to do with a camera, but not what to say with it. In the end, it's hard to say if it's a good film or a bad film. It's complicated.

CSS Grid Layout is a new, powerful layout system
that allows a web page to easily be divided into columns and rows.
This CSS module defines a two-dimensional grid-based layout system,
optimized for user interface design.
The 'modern' CSS Grid Layout specification began as a first public
working draft published on 7 April 2011.
TABLE -> FLOAT -> POSITIONING AND INLINE-BLOCK -> BOX MODEL -> CSS flex box -> CSS grid layout
Groups of properties
CSS Grid defines according to four groups of properties:
The explicit grid
Gaps
Aligning things
The implicit grid
The explicit grid
You can use two properties to make an explicit grid:
grid-template-columns
grid-template-rows
grid-template-columns create a new column for each length value you add to it.
grid-template-rows work the same way.
Positioning items in your grid
You can control the position of items in a grid with two properties:
grid-column
grid-row
A shorthand for grid-column-start and grid-column-end
works this way: grid-column-start / grid-column-end.
You can also use the span keyword to tell CSS Grid
how many columns you want your item to take up.
A shorthand for grid-row-start and grid-row-end
works this way: grid-row-start / grid-row-end.
Positioning items in named areas
To create a grid area, you should use grid-template-areas on the grid.
Some notes on creating grid areas:
You must name every grid area
If you don’t want to name an area, use .
Each group separated by inverted quotes ("row1" "row2") signifies a row
Each value within inverted quotes ("area1 area2") signifies an area
To place items IN a grid area, you use the grid-area property on the grid item.
To place items ON a grid-area, you use grid-area.
Gaps
There are three properties to remember:
grid-column-gap
grid-row-gap
grid-gap
There are six properties to align things:
justify-content
align-content
justify-items
align-items
justify-self
align-self
Two groups of patterns:
The first group is justify vs align
The second group is content, items, and self
Justify vs align
Each CSS Grid has two axes:
The inline-axis
The block-axis
Inline-axis reads left to right. Block-axis reads top to bottom
So the inline and block axis is:
Inline: left to right
Block: top to bottom
Content, items, and self
justify-content and align-content lets you align the grid itself
to the available space outside of the grid.
justify-items and align-items lets you align grid-items
to any available whitespace in their respective cells.
justify-self and align-self does the same thing as justify-items
and align-items. The difference is it lets you change the alignment
for only one grid-item.
Implicit Grid
But we have six items!
You can adjust the automatically created column(s)
or row(s) with these two properties:
grid-auto-columns
grid-auto-rows
Conclusion
"Why CSS Grid?"
cleaner markups;
increase of maintainability and flexibility for your layouts;
easy to achieve more complicated layouts as you can work with columns and rows simultaneously;
the current support is at 88.3% of the global website traffic, so it is definitely okay.


The 'table' formatter will convert an associative array into a formatted, word-wrapped table. Each item in the associative array represents one row in the table. Each row is similarly composed of associative arrays, with the key of each item indicating the column, and the value indicating the contents of the cell. See below for an example source array.
The command core-requirements is an example of a command that produces output in a tabular format.
$ drush core-requirements
Title Severity Description Cron maintenance Error Last run 2 weeks ago tasks Cron has not run recently. For more information, see the online handbook entry for configuring cron jobs. You can run cron manually. Drupal Info 7.19(Note: the output above has been shortened for clarity; the actual output of core-requirements contains additional rows not shown here.)
It is possible to determine the available fields by consulting drush help core requirements:
--fields=<title, severity, description> Fields to output. All available fields are: title, severity, sid, description, value, reason, weight.It is possible to control the fields that appear in the table, and their order, by naming the desired fields in the --fields option. The space between items is optional, so `--fields=title,sid` is valid.
Code:
return array ( 'cron' => array ( 'title' => 'Cron maintenance tasks', 'severity' => 2, 'value' => 'Last run 2 weeks ago', 'description' => 'Cron has not run recently. For more information, see the online handbook entry for configuring cron jobs. You can run cron manually.', 'severity-label' => 'Error', ), 'drupal' => array ( 'title' => 'Drupal', 'value' => '7.19', 'severity' => -1, 'weight' => -10, 'severity-label' => 'Info', ), )


Hello! Welcome to my page, I'm Jeremy. I'm an 18 year old from Nairobi, Kenya who's just began taking a class on programming. I decided to do this because I wanted to take a gap year and have a break from "formal learning" before I made my way to university.
An interest in Computer Science and technology as a whole has always been a part of who I am and that's another reason I was keen to take a class on programming. My background is the British education system and I attended an International school graduating -having finished my A-Levels- in May 2018; where I did Chemistry, Biology, and Math. Before I began this course, I'd completed work experience at three companies- two of them being tech companies. The first was Cellulant in 2015 and then Fintech in 2017; both of these experiences at these firms only strengthened my interest in the industry and my drive to go on to do Computer Science.
Other interests of mine are sports-related. I’m a big football fan and avid NBA supporter, my teams are Manchester United and the New Orleans Pelicans. I sometimes play golf and tennis and was once a competitive swimmer.

IDS offers the IDS Software Suite for different ARM architectures with hard float (hf).
Many current ARM embedded boards and devices have an integrated hardware support for floating-point operations (FPU) with the consequence of a higher performance in applications with various operations like image calculation, transformations, exponential or trigonometric calculations with floating point arithmetic. In the ARM environment VFP means "Vector Floating Point Architecture".
In contrast, soft float emulates an FPU in software. Corresponding operations run much slower than with hardware support because to a higher CPU load.
The following information is related to the GNU/Linux system that is installed on the embedded board.
If the used CPU features this hardware support, can be requested via the CPU information. The verification will show entries in the features line of /proc/cpuinfo
or in the VFP support message, logged out while the kernel boots.

What libraries are used by basic applications? For this purpose, a standard application like e.g. "ls" can be examined. The command ldd
shows what libraries are linked.
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ldd /bin/ls
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x7eec3000)
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libarmmem.so (0x76ef7000)
libselinux.so.1 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libselinux.so.1 (0x76eb7000)
libacl.so.1 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libacl.so.1 (0x76ea0000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6 (0x76d5f000)
/lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 (0x54af6000)
libpcre.so.3 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpcre.so.3 (0x76cec000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libdl.so.2 (0x76cd9000)
libattr.so.1 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libattr.so.1 (0x76cc3000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libpthread.so.0 (0x76c9b000)
Here, you see that the hard float libraries in the directory /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf
are used. That indicates a system with hard float support.
Using the readelf tool shows more detailed information very easy. The presence of the file attribute 'Tag_ABI_VFP_args' for example shows the usage of the VFP registers.
For the check, choose the standard "C" library libc.so.6
.
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo readelf -A /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6
Attribute Section: aeabi
File Attributes
Tag_CPU_name: "6"
Tag_CPU_arch: v6
Tag_ARM_ISA_use: Yes
Tag_THUMB_ISA_use: Thumb-1
Tag_FP_arch: VFPv2
Tag_ABI_PCS_wchar_t: 4
Tag_ABI_FP_rounding: Needed
Tag_ABI_FP_denormal: Needed
Tag_ABI_FP_exceptions: Needed
Tag_ABI_FP_number_model: IEEE 754
Tag_ABI_align_needed: 8-byte
Tag_ABI_enum_size: int
Tag_ABI_HardFP_use: SP and DP
Tag_ABI_VFP_args: VFP registers
Tag_CPU_unaligned_access: v6
When the line with Tag_ABI_VFP_args is not present, it is a soft float system.
Tip: If you do not know the directory of the libc.so.6
file, you can search for it using
$> sudo find / -name libc.so.6
IDS offers camera drivers for hard float systems. Depending on the sensor model, the camera performance may be limited by the embedded board.

) may include a hint to solve them (see installer output). If not, contact your local distributors support and submit the report file.Note: If older configuration files are present from a previous installation, they are backed up before the new configuration files are created.
The created files will be installed in following directories (if you have not uninstalled the USB or GigE package):
| /usr/lib/libueye_api.so.[version] | uEye shared library | After ldconfig has finished, a symbolic link libueye_api.so should exist to provide linkage against libueye_api.so . Note that only the version for the current target architecture will be installed, e.g. the 32-bit library will only be installed on a 32-bit system and the 64-bit library will only be installed on a 64-bit system. |
| /usr/include/ueye.h | Development header file | For compatibility with older versions, a symbolic link /usr/include/uEye.h will be created. It is strongly recommended to use the lower case file name in new projects. |
| /usr/bin/ueyeethd | GigE uEye daemon binaries | Configuration files are located under /etc/ids/... |
| /usr/bin/ueyeusbd | USB uEye daemon binaries | Configuration files are located under /etc/ids/... |

Additionally, the installer provides the following tools - unless not indicated otherwise, the tools will be installed to /usr/bin
:
| ueyesetid | Camera ID configuration tool |
| ueyesetip | Camera IP address configuration tool |
| idscameramanager | IDS Camera Manager |
| ueyedemo | Demo application |
| ueyereport | Report generator tool |
| ueyesetup | IDS SDK setup tool

The installer will create a system group 'ueye'
and a system user 'ueyed'
to run the daemon with. Currently there are no access control restrictions, but be aware that this might change in the future.
Use the menu entry "IDS Camera Manager" and "uEye Demo" to start the applications.
Note: It is recommended to use systemd
for controlling the daemons. Do not mix calls of systemd
and init.d
!
$ sudo systemctl start ueyeethdrc

yet, you can use the following commands:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/ueyeethdrc start
$ sudo /etc/init.d/ueyeusbdrc start
$ sudo systemctl stop ueyeethdrc
$ sudo systemctl stop ueyeusbdrc
systemd
:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/ueyeethdrc stop
$ sudo /etc/init.d/ueyeusbdrc stop
After you installed the software, connect the camera to the PC, using the corresponding USB cable. The camera will be recognized automatically. When you connect a camera with a PC or a new USB port for the first time, it is detected as a new device and the firmware is uploaded to the camera. When the camera has been correctly installed, the LED on the back of the camera lights up green and the camera is displayed in the list of the IDS Camera Manager.
USB 3/USB 3.1 uEye cameras are limited usable under USB 2.0. Depending on the camera model, not all camera functions are available in USB 2.0 mode. USB 3/USB 3.1 uEye cameras are optimized for USB 3.0 ports and are not tested by IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH under USB 2.0.
Please note that due to the high performance of modern sensors, some USB 3/USB 3.1 uEye models are not supported in USB 2.0 mode anymore, as the USB 2.0 interface does not provide enough power.
| A high CPU load may lead to USB transfer fails. | Increase the daemon priority by reducing the "NICEVALUE" parameter in /lib/systemd/ueyeusbdrc.service or /etc/init.d/ueyeusbdrc .
Note: If you make changes to the ueyeusbdrc.service file, you must run the following command before restarting the USB uEye daemon.
$> sudo systemctl daemon-reload |
| USB sub-system behavior (BulkTransferSize) | With "Bulk Transfer Size" parameter, the behavior of the USB sub-system can be set. If you change the "Bulk transfer size" value, you have to analyze the effects of the change carefully. The "BulkTransferSize" parameter can be changed in the file /etc/ids/ueye/ueyeusbd.conf (default: 512 KB). |
| USB sub-system behavior (NumRequests) | The "NumRequests" parameter defines the number of requests to be preloaded. This parameter should also be changed if the "BulkTransferSize" parameter is changed (default: 6). |
| Buffer memory of the USB file system (usbfs_memory_mb) | The buffer memory's default value of the USB file system is often too low for a multi-camera system with USB cameras. Increase the memory value to avoid transfer losses. To adjust the memory value, you must change the "usbfs_memory_mb“ parameter with root privileges:
Example: Increase the "usbfs_memory_mb" parameter to 256 MB: echo 'new size' > /sys/module/usbcore/parameters/usbfs_memory_mb
|
After you installed the software, connect the camera with the network. Check the power supply to the camera. Use either an external power supply or - depending on the model - via PoE (Power over Ethernet).
Attention: The camera should not be supplied through both voltage sources at once as this can irreparably damage the camera.
Before you can use the camera on the network, you need to assign a valid IP address to the camera in the IDS Camera Manager.
By default, the installer configures the default ethernet network interfaces. If you use another network interface to connect your cameras, insert the interface name at the interface configuration parameter in "[Parameters]-Interfaces"
of /etc/ids/ueye/ueyeethd.conf
. You must be root to edit the configuration file.
The GigE uEye daemon network interfaces may be configured with the IDS Camera Manager if a graphical environment is available.
Note: ueyeethd
must be stopped before manually editing the configuration file!
Note that incorrectly configured GigE cameras are only visible if the "ETH ConfigurationMode" is activated (see "IDS Camera Manager > daemon control").
This section lists known issues that might occur in this release.
| OpenMP issues may be cause high CPU load or "Driver out of buffer" errors. | They possibly can be reduced by:
Set the value of the environment variable OMP_WAIT_POLICY to PASSIVE
This variable specifies whether waiting threads should be active or passive. If the value is PASSIVE , waiting threads should not consume CPU power while waiting; while the value is ACTIVE specifies that they should. If undefined, threads wait actively for a short time before waiting passively. |
| Debian 10: USB and ETH daemons cannot be started after installation because no user/group was created during installation. | See also "New in Buster"
The su command in buster is provided by the util-linux source package, instead of the shadow source package, and no longer alters the PATH variable by default. This means that after doing su , your PATH may not contain directories like /sbin , and many system administration commands will fail. There are several workarounds:
|
| OpenGL usage | The is_SetDisplayMode() function returns "IS_NO_SUCCESS" . For using OpenGL the libgl1-mesa package is required. Check if the package and its dependencies are installed. |
See list on https://en.ids-imaging.com/open-source.html
$ sudo /usr/bin/ueyesetup -r eth
$ sudo /usr/bin/ueyesetup -r usb
You should always use the setup script that came with the previous installation to ensure proper system cleanup. Do not attempt to remove the IDS Software Suite manually.
Note: The configuration files are not uninstalled and remain on the system.

An Infestation is a work-in-progress multiplayer top-down horror shooter developed using Unity and written in C#. Development of An Infestation began as a curiosity/inspiration project of Among Us and how it handled lighting and eventually found its direction as a horror shooter.
An Infestation is still in development! For more information on where the project is currently sitting, you can check out the blog. I am making regular updates on its progress, including multiplayer and turning it into an actual game!
As for the postmortem/analysis on An Infestations development below, it will stay as-is for the time being as an analysis on the original project. In the future, when development is finished or released, the section will be re-written to fit more closely with its current state.
During the COVID19 lockdown, I worked on two projects, the first being my Discord Bot called Impostor Bot and the second being another Among Us inspired project called An Infestation. After trying something new with the development of my Discord Bot, I decided to jump back into unity and finally create a spiritual sequel to my Zombie Game project. The result is an early version of an ambitious (Hopefully I finish one day) top-down horror shooter built around a lack of vision and darkness.
The first goal of the project was creating a simple top-down shooter, barebone and focusing on function. After the development of these basic functions was complete, I began brainstorming ideas for how to make the project unique.
Similar to my experience developing Impostor Bot, I was very inspired by Among Us for this project. I spent a lot of time with the game and loved how it handled lighting and vision from a 2D perspective, something I thought would work great in the game I was trying to create. So the next goal of the project was to replicate and merge this vision cone and lighting of Among Us, with a Fog of War effect from games like Age of Empires, to create a sense of realism from a 2D top-down perspective.
After achieving the main goals, I was satisfied with the work accomplished thus far and decided that was enough features for the first version. Not long after this, the COVID19 lockdown finished and the project got regrettably shelved, but ideas for future development did not. The overall goal of An Infestation now would be to create a story-driven, survival horror about the exploration of an abandoned colony or town with a fundamental focus on surprise.
One lesson that seems to stand out the most in all projects I complete is confidence. There is a pattern of underconfidence when I start projects and then a pleasant surprise when I achieve what I set out to do. An Infestation was, as far as I can remember, quite the opposite. It was a project I started with legitimate confidence and a project that I ended with even more. Maybe this is more of a personal accomplishment rather than a lesson learned but, regardless, something to remember for the future.
An Infestation is a work-in-progress multiplayer top-down horror shooter developed using Unity and written in C#. Development of An Infestation began as a curiosity/inspiration project of Among Us and how it handled lighting and eventually found its direction as a horror shooter.

Current working directory is:

Starts off with a standard html form, then imports the proper classes. We store the GET'd variable 'cmd' in the string 'cmd', then store a string
containing the current operating system in 'OS'. A check is made to see which OS is running then depending on that, the Runtime.exec object is constructed accordingly. This was what I meant earlier by a minor detail - adding cmd.exe /c rather than just executing a command for windows.
We then pass the output of the command to a stream and write it to our html page.

MacVim 7.3, ruby 1.8.7, SnowLeopard.
The make commands which were produced by extconf.rb run without error but ':CommandT' said that no suitabe image could be found. After I run gcc commands found here in the forum it did work.
Maybe the problem is that I have MacPorts installed? Below are the two variants (arguments which appeared in both variants removed for brevity). Hope it is of any help. Thanks for a great plugin!

You need to build Command-T using the same version of Ruby that your Vim links to. In the case of MacVim, that's the system version of Ruby.
If you want to build it using the non-system version of Ruby, then you'll need to build MacVim as well, linking against that same non-system Ruby.

Scene 2nd
The retreat of Rodolphe in the Forest of Bohemia. (in 2) Music()
at opening. Distant sound of hunter's horn and echo.
(Enter Rodolphe and Amina followed by Greppo.
The two first are in hunting costume.)
Rodolphe
(Throwing his spear and horn to Greppo)
I weary with the chase, call together our people and bid
them lead our horses to where the forest path crosses the
brook, there we will join them.
Greppo
'Tis wisely resolved, good master. The sun declines, night
comes on apace and we are yet some three good miles from home,
besides I'm hollow as a drum, moreover, in early autumn venison
keeps not overlong and the fat haunch of yonder noble
stag cries out for speedy roasting. Pray do not tarry long.
(Exit L.H. 2nd Ent)
Rodolphe
Well, dear love, tomorrow ends the year of our probation.
Tomorrow, at the holy altar's foot, I call you mine.
Amina
Tomorrow! How brief the time and yet how long 'till then.
Oh, Rodolphe, will it come to us? There seems to be a lurking
danger in the air, a cloud between us and the coming light.
Rodolphe
Fear not. Here in the deep seculsion of our forest home we
are safe from all pursuit.
(Distant horn and echo L.H. at back.)
Hark! 'tis Greppo calling in the huntsmen. Let's on
to meet
him.
Music () They are crossing to R.H. when they are suddenly
confronted by Hertzog, Wolfenstein and Wulfgar, who enter
quickly R.H. 2nd Ent. (Chord)
Wolfenstein
Ha, ha, ha! At last we meet!
Rodolphe
(Starting back and drawing his sword)
Entrapped! Fly, Amina, seek safety with our people. My arm shall bar
pursuit.

Wolfenstein
Alive, take him alive! Yield!
Rodolphe
(Standing on his defense)
He who takes my sword must win it.
Hertzog
Put up thy blade; she whom thou would'st invoke is powerless
to aid.
 But know thou
still
art juggled with. The power I once invoked is potent still.
Music() He kisses the ring--Stalacta springs from
thicket L.H. flat in glittering full armor, Dragonfin through
L.H. trap or on from L.H. 2nd Ent.)
Behold, we meet on equal ground!
Wolfenstein
Though environed by a thousand fiends my hate would find a
way to reach you.
Music(). Grand triple sword combat: Rodolphe and Wolfenstein.
Stalacta and Hertzog. Dragonfin and Wulfgar.
Wolfenstein and Wulfgar are slain. Hertzog wounded and
dismayed flies R.H. 2nd Ent. Amina, who during the combat has
knelt in prayer, throws herself into the arms of Rodolphe then
both kneel at the feet of Stalacta. Dragonfin
indulges in grotesque exultation over the bodies of
Wolfenstein and Wulfgar--Picture.

Gets the entire buffer of a stream either as a Buffer
or a string.
Validates the stream's length against an expected length and maximum limit.
Ideal for parsing request bodies.
var getRawBody = require('raw-body')
Returns a promise if no callback specified and global Promise
exists.
Options:
length
- The length of the stream.
If the contents of the stream do not add up to this length,
an 400
error code is returned.limit
- The byte limit of the body.
If the body ends up being larger than this limit,
a 413
error code is returned.encoding
- The requested encoding.
By default, a Buffer
instance will be returned.
Most likely, you want utf8
.
You can use any type of encoding supported by iconv-lite.You can also pass a string in place of options to just specify the encoding.
callback(err, res)
:
err
- the following attributes will be defined if applicable:
limit
- the limit in byteslength
and expected
- the expected length of the streamreceived
- the received bytesencoding
- the invalid encodingstatus
and statusCode
- the corresponding status code for the errortype
- either entity.too.large
, request.aborted
, request.size.invalid
, stream.encoding.set
, or encoding.unsupported
res
- the result, either as a String
if an encoding was set or a Buffer
otherwise.
If an error occurs, the stream will be paused, everything unpiped,
and you are responsible for correctly disposing the stream.
For HTTP requests, no handling is required if you send a response.
For streams that use file descriptors, you should stream.destroy()
or stream.close()
to prevent leaks.
var getRawBody = require('raw-body')
var typer = require('media-typer')
app.use(function (req, res, next) {
getRawBody(req, {
length: req.headers['content-length'],
limit: '1mb',
encoding: typer.parse(req.headers['content-type']).parameters.charset
}, function (err, string) {
if (err) return next(err)
req.text = string
next()
})
})
app.use(function* (next) {
var string = yield getRawBody(this.req, {
length: this.length,
limit: '1mb',
encoding: this.charset
})
})
To use this library as a promise, simply omit the callback
and a promise is
returned, provided that a global Promise
is defined.
var getRawBody = require('raw-body')
var http = require('http')
var server = http.createServer(function (req, res) {
getRawBody(req)
.then(function (buf) {
res.statusCode = 200
res.end(buf.length + ' bytes submitted')
})
.catch(function (err) {
res.statusCode = 500
res.end(err.message)

Learn how to flirt the right way
Wing teaches attractive and respectful online conversation through "choose your own ending" chat stories.
Download on the App Store Get it on Google PlayOur Mission
We're not here to help "pick up artists", players, or playettes. There's plenty of that on Tinder, and we're sure they have no trouble meeting people. What we have noticed is that (1) not everyone knows how to flirt in this iPhone addicted age, and (2) not everyone has good manners when it comes to dating. Wing is about demonstrating what we consider as both attractive and respectful conversation through (mostly) real online dating chats. Ever wonder how to gracefully navigate topics like "what are you looking for?" or "I'm in an open relationship." We got you. Curious about how to how to have conversation that increases someone's pulse rate (unlike work, weather, hobbies), while not being a creep? Let's play.

Sahi Pro - Architecture
Understanding Sahi's architecture needs an understanding of the design goals of Sahi.
User Goals
Testing software can be a tedious process.There is the creative exploratory part of it and the tedious, boring checking and rechecking part.
Sahi's goal is to enable good testers to reduce the tedious part. This brings in a few considerations:
- The tool should be simple to use
- It should minimize coding/scripting effort as much as possible
- It should take care of everything other than the business logic itself, like logging, reporting etc.
Sahi is focused towards saving time for testers and developers. Sahi has an excellent recorder which quickly
helps create snippets of script that can be executed as is or called from functions. Sahi takes care of reporting,
handling suites, distributed playback across multiple machines etc. with minimal effort from the tester.
helps create snippets of script that can be executed as is or called from functions. Sahi takes care of reporting,
handling suites, distributed playback across multiple machines etc. with minimal effort from the tester.
Technical Goals
Handling new browsers and operating systems
Testing web applications on browsers can be painful. There are a multitude of browserson different operating systems and each one has its own quirks. The tool should take care of these differences.
Browsers are also available on mobile devices, but mobile devices may not be able to install and run full testing tools.
So the tool should be:
- Browser and Operating System Independent
- Should be able to work on mobile browsers without installing full software
- Should be able to accommodate new browsers or new versions of browsers
without modification to script and minimal modification to tool.
Sahi uses a proxy to inject javascript into pages. The javascript enables record and playback functionality.
Configuring any browser to work with Sahi is as simple as pointing the browser's proxy to Sahi (localhost:9999)
Javascript and proxy support are critical to any browser and browsers make sure their proxy support and
javascript capabilities are bug free and backwards compatible. Because of this, Sahi is guaranteed to work with any browser.

Javascript and proxy support are critical to any browser and browsers make sure their proxy support and
javascript capabilities are bug free and backwards compatible. Because of this, Sahi is guaranteed to work with any browser.
Object Identification
Existing methodogies of using ids, XPaths and CSS Selectors have proven to be woefully brittle and complex.When a test breaks, the first suspect is normally the script and its identification mechanism rather than the actual application.
This adds a lot of wastage into the testing cycle.
So the tool should:
- Identify elements in an easy way, and provide ways to automatically identify.
- Should not use any existing libraries like jquery since the web application may use similar libraries and cause a conflict
- Identifiers should relate to the user interface
- Identifiers should work across browsers
Sahi uses its own wrappers around the Javascript DOM to identify elements. Sahi APIs use various DOM attributes
of an element to identify them. For example, on a button, the attributes that Sahi may look for are value, name, id, css class,index etc.
Sahi also uses relation APIs like near, in, under, leftOf, rightOf etc. to identify one element with respect to another.
Sahi APIs are normalized to work across browsers.

Sahi also uses relation APIs like near, in, under, leftOf, rightOf etc. to identify one element with respect to another.
Sahi APIs are normalized to work across browsers.
Event simulation
- Event simulation should simulate the end user actions correctly across browsers.
- Should not need browser to be in focus, to allow parallel playback and reduce brittleness of tests
- Should not force users to do implicit actions like scrolling into view.
Sahi predominantly uses Javascript based events to simulate user actions. These work in 95% of cases.
In some very special cases, where Javascript events are ineffective, Sahi falls back on native events.
Sahi tries to keep native events to a minimum since the browser needs focus in these cases.
Needing focus leads to brittle tests and prevents parallel playback.

Needing focus leads to brittle tests and prevents parallel playback.
Scripting
- Javascript is common to all web projects no matter what the back end technology may be.
Using javascript as the scripting language makes sure that expertise is always available in a web team.
- Logging etc. should be taken care of automatically
- Scripting should allow easy reuse of existing libraries to do non-browser tasks
Sahi Script, the default language used by Sahi, is an extension of Javascript. Sahi Script uses the same constructs of
Javascript, but adds capability to interact with the browser efficiently, and also perform system actions like read from file system,
access database, call Java etc.
Javascript, but adds capability to interact with the browser efficiently, and also perform system actions like read from file system,
access database, call Java etc.
Agile
- Scripts should be version controllable and "diff"able
- Scripts should break minimally when user interface changes
- Suites should allow being triggered from build and Continuous Integration systems
Sahi Scripts are plain text files which can be version controlled. Sahi's APIs are fairly robust
and can withstand peripheral UI changes. Sahi suites can be triggered from ant, batch files, shell scripts,
from java code or just as simple URL calls.

Architecture
Sahi uses a proxy to inject javascript into web pages.The injected javascript
- adds event handlers for recording
- adds Sahi's APIs for event simulation
- mocks some window dialogs like alert, prompt, confirm, print so that playback is not affected

My friendlist is full and it would be awesome if you had a extended friend list or something like that. Or atleast a list that you can just edit easily.
Btw, thanks for bblog! Keep up the good work.

GENOTYPE
The genes present in the DNA of an organism. We will use a pair of letters (ex: Tt or YY or ss, etc.) to represent genotypes for one particular trait. There are always two letters in the genotype because (as a result of sexual reproduction) one code for the trait comes from mama organism & the other comes from papa organism, so every offspring gets two codes (two letters). Now, turns out there are three possible GENOTYPES - two big letters (like "TT"), one of each ("Tt"), or two lowercase letters ("tt").
HOMOZYGOUSWhen we have two capital or two lowercase letters in the GENOTYPE (ex: TT or tt) it's called HOMOZYGOUS ("homo" means "the same"). Sometimes the term "PURE" is used instead of homozygous.
HETEROZYGOUS When the GENOTYPE is made up of one capital letter & one lowercase letter (ex: Tt) it's called HETEROZYGOUS ("hetero" means "other"). A heterozygous genotype can also be referred to as HYBRID.
PHENOTYPE
How the trait physically shows-up in the organism. Wanna know the simplest way to determine an organism's phenotype ? Look at it.
Examples of phenotypes: blue eyes, brown fur, striped fruit, yellow flowers.
ALLELES
Alternative forms of the same gene. Alleles for a trait are located at corresponding positions on homologous chromosomes. Remember just a second ago when explaining genotypes I said that "one code (letter) comes from ma & one code (letter) comes from pa"? Well "allele" is a fancy word for what I called codes. For example, there is a gene for hair texture (whether hair is curly or straight). One form of the hair texture gene codes for curly hair. A different code for of the same gene makes hair straight. So the gene for hair texture exists as two alleles --- one curly code, and one straight code.
The first step of the experiment would be to select a cross type. Types of cross types available are :
Choose any one cross type from the dropdown list
Choose phenotype from the dropdown list.
List of alleles available for the phenotype chosen are displayed under two sections.

November 8th, 2019
My coding journey began with very little experience and as a result, I wasn’t sure whether Python was a good programming language or not to begin learning. I started coding in 10th grade, and it was the first time that I was introduced to Python. After a year, I started working with Java and then I understood the benefits of Python and why it was a great choice to begin my coding career. I recently started using Python again for my computer science class in college, which is why I was fascinated to write why it is the best programming language for beginners.
Reason one: Anyone can understand the syntax, but someone from a completely different career stream can read the code and understand what is happening in it. They might not know whether the code will execute properly or not, but they will be able to understand the piece. The structure of Python is also cleaner compared to other languages. You need exact indentations to run the code, and those indentations make the code more concise.
Reason Two: Python is open-source and free. It is very easy to download Python on your laptops or PCs. After installing, just pick a text editor and start writing a code. Because Python is an open-source language, you can write anything and sell it within the market for commercial use. The tutorials for Python are all over the internet from YouTube to Lynda (LinkedIn Learning).
Reason Three: Growth in Python is higher now, but a few years ago Python hardly seemed to exist. Now Python is one of the top trending languages in the market. As of now the market needs a lot of data scientists, and all of them need to learn Python as a base language. As a result of all the data scientists having to learn Python, there will be a lot of growth and, in return, a higher pay in the Python industry.
Reason Four: Python is good for web development, data science, machine learning, and cloud computing. If you are interested in any of those four categories, Python should be your first go, because all of them need at least a minimum level of Python. It is also good for game development and database management.
Python is everywhere and all around us. From a middle school kid to a sixty-year-old, many people are interested in learning Python. If you are still thinking about whether to give a try or no, I completely suggest learning Python. In the past ten weeks, I have started enjoying Python even more because of my CS class, and I am super confident you will also enjoy Python and explore more.

For a minute or two she stood looking at the house, and wondering what to do next, when suddenly a footman in livery came running out of the wood—(she considered him to be a footman because he was in livery: otherwise, judging by his face only, she would have called him a fish)—and rapped loudly at the door with his knuckles. It was opened by another footman in livery, with a round face, and large eyes like a frog; and both footmen, Alice noticed, had powdered hair that curled all over their heads. She felt very curious to know what it was all about, and crept a little way out of the wood to listen.
The Fish–Footman began by producing from under his arm a great letter, nearly as large as himself, and this he handed over to the other, saying, in a solemn tone, 'For the Duchess. An invitation from the Queen to play croquet.' The Frog–Footman repeated, in the same solemn tone, only changing the order of the words a little, 'From the Queen. An invitation for the Duchess to play croquet.'
Then they both bowed low, and their curls got entangled together.
Alice laughed so much at this, that she had to run back into the wood for fear of their hearing her; and when she next peeped out the Fish–Footman was gone, and the other was sitting on the ground near the door, staring stupidly up into the sky.
Alice went timidly up to the door, and knocked.
'There's no sort of use in knocking,' said the Footman, 'and that for two reasons. First, because I'm on the same side of the door as you are; secondly, because they're making such a noise inside, no one could possibly hear you.' And certainly there was a most extraordinary noise going on within—a constant howling and sneezing, and every now and then a great crash, as if a dish or kettle had been broken to pieces.
'Please, then,' said Alice, 'how am I to get in?'
'There might be some sense in your knocking,' the Footman went on without attending to her, 'if we had the door between us. For instance, if you were INSIDE, you might knock, and I could let you out, you know.' He was looking up into the sky all the time he was speaking, and this Alice thought decidedly uncivil. 'But perhaps he can't help it,' she said to herself; 'his eyes are so VERY nearly at the top of his head. But at any rate he might answer questions.—How am I to get in?' she repeated, aloud.
'I shall sit here,' the Footman remarked, 'till tomorrow—'
At this moment the door of the house opened, and a large plate came skimming out, straight at the Footman's head: it just grazed his nose, and broke to pieces against one of the trees behind him.
'—or next day, maybe,' the Footman continued in the same tone, exactly as if nothing had happened.
'How am I to get in?' asked Alice again, in a louder tone.
'ARE you to get in at all?' said the Footman. 'That's the first question, you know.'
It was, no doubt: only Alice did not like to be told so. 'It's really dreadful,' she muttered to herself, 'the way all the creatures argue. It's enough to drive one crazy!'
The Footman seemed to think this a good opportunity for repeating his remark, with variations. 'I shall sit here,' he said, 'on and off, for days and days.'
'But what am I to do?' said Alice.
'Anything you like,' said the Footman, and began whistling.
'Oh, there's no use in talking to him,' said Alice desperately: 'he's perfectly idiotic!' And she opened the door and went in.

'There's certainly too much pepper in that soup!' Alice said to herself, as well as she could for sneezing.
There was certainly too much of it in the air. Even the Duchess sneezed occasionally; and as for the baby, it was sneezing and howling alternately without a moment's pause. The only things in the kitchen that did not sneeze, were the cook, and a large cat which was sitting on the hearth and grinning from ear to ear.
'Please would you tell me,' said Alice, a little timidly, for she was not quite sure whether it was good manners for her to speak first, 'why your cat grins like that?'
'It's a Cheshire cat,' said the Duchess, 'and that's why. Pig!'
She said the last word with such sudden violence that Alice quite jumped; but she saw in another moment that it was addressed to the baby, and not to her, so she took courage, and went on again:—
'I didn't know that Cheshire cats always grinned; in fact, I didn't know that cats COULD grin.'
'They all can,' said the Duchess; 'and most of 'em do.'
'I don't know of any that do,' Alice said very politely, feeling quite pleased to have got into a conversation.
'You don't know much,' said the Duchess; 'and that's a fact.'
Alice did not at all like the tone of this remark, and thought it would be as well to introduce some other subject of conversation. While she was trying to fix on one, the cook took the cauldron of soup off the fire, and at once set to work throwing everything within her reach at the Duchess and the baby—the fire–irons came first; then followed a shower of saucepans, plates, and dishes. The Duchess took no notice of them even when they hit her; and the baby was howling so much already, that it was quite impossible to say whether the blows hurt it or not.
'Oh, PLEASE mind what you're doing!' cried Alice, jumping up and down in an agony of terror. 'Oh, there goes his PRECIOUS nose'; as an unusually large saucepan flew close by it, and very nearly carried it off.
'If everybody minded their own business,' the Duchess said in a hoarse growl, 'the world would go round a deal faster than it does.'
'Which would NOT be an advantage,' said Alice, who felt very glad to get an opportunity of showing off a little of her knowledge. 'Just think of what work it would make with the day and night! You see the earth takes twenty–four hours to turn round on its axis—'
'Talking of axes,' said the Duchess, 'chop off her head!'
Alice glanced rather anxiously at the cook, to see if she meant to take the hint; but the cook was busily stirring the soup, and seemed not to be listening, so she went on again: 'Twenty–four hours, I THINK; or is it twelve? I—'
'Oh, don't bother ME,' said the Duchess; 'I never could abide figures!'
CHORUS.
(In which the cook and the baby joined):—
'Wow! wow! wow!'
While the Duchess sang the second verse of the song, she kept tossing the baby violently up and down, and the poor little thing howled so, that Alice could hardly hear the words:—
'I speak severely to my boy,
I beat him when he sneezes;
For he can thoroughly enjoy
The pepper when he pleases!'
CHORUS.
'Wow! wow! wow!'
'Here! you may nurse it a bit, if you like!' the Duchess said to Alice, flinging the baby at her as she spoke. 'I must go and get ready to play croquet with the Queen,' and she hurried out of the room. The cook threw a frying–pan after her as she went out, but it just missed her.
Alice caught the baby with some difficulty, as it was a queer–shaped little creature, and held out its arms and legs in all directions, 'just like a star–fish,' thought Alice. The poor little thing was snorting like a steam–engine when she caught it, and kept doubling itself up and straightening itself out again, so that altogether, for the first minute or two, it was as much as she could do to hold it.
As soon as she had made out the proper way of nursing it, (which was to twist it up into a sort of knot, and then keep tight hold of its right ear and left foot, so as to prevent its undoing itself,) she carried it out into the open air. 'IF I don't take this child away with me,' thought Alice, 'they're sure to kill it in a day or two: wouldn't it be murder to leave it behind?' She said the last words out loud, and the little thing grunted in reply (it had left off sneezing by this time). 'Don't grunt,' said Alice; 'that's not at all a proper way of expressing yourself.'
The baby grunted again, and Alice looked very anxiously into its face to see what was the matter with it. There could be no doubt that it had a VERY turn–up nose, much more like a snout than a real nose; also its eyes were getting extremely small for a baby: altogether Alice did not like the look of the thing at all. 'But perhaps it was only sobbing,' she thought, and looked into its eyes again, to see if there were any tears.
No, there were no tears. 'If you're going to turn into a pig, my dear,' said Alice, seriously, 'I'll have nothing more to do with you. Mind now!' The poor little thing sobbed again (or grunted, it was impossible to say which), and they went on for some while in silence.
Alice was just beginning to think to herself, 'Now, what am I to do with this creature when I get it home?' when it grunted again, so violently, that she looked down into its face in some alarm. This time there could be NO mistake about it: it was neither more nor less than a pig, and she felt that it would be quite absurd for her to carry it further.
So she set the little creature down, and felt quite relieved to see it trot away quietly into the wood. 'If it had grown up,' she said to herself, 'it would have made a dreadfully ugly child: but it makes rather a handsome pig, I think.' And she began thinking over other children she knew, who might do very well as pigs, and was just saying to herself, 'if one only knew the right way to change them—' when she was a little startled by seeing the Cheshire Cat sitting on a bough of a tree a few yards off.
The Cat only grinned when it saw Alice. It looked good–natured, she thought: still it had VERY long claws and a great many teeth, so she felt that it ought to be treated with respect.
'Cheshire Puss,' she began, rather timidly, as she did not at all know whether it would like the name: however, it only grinned a little wider. 'Come, it's pleased so far,' thought Alice, and she went on. 'Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?'
'That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat.
'I don't much care where—' said Alice.
'Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat.
'—so long as I get SOMEWHERE,' Alice added as an explanation.
'Oh, you're sure to do that,' said the Cat, 'if you only walk long enough.'
Alice felt that this could not be denied, so she tried another question. 'What sort of people live about here?'
'In THAT direction,' the Cat said, waving its right paw round, 'lives a Hatter: and in THAT direction,' waving the other paw, 'lives a March Hare. Visit either you like: they're both mad.'
'But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
'Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: 'we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
'How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
'You must be,' said the Cat, 'or you wouldn't have come here.'
Alice didn't think that proved it at all; however, she went on 'And how do you know that you're mad?'
'To begin with,' said the Cat, 'a dog's not mad. You grant that?'
'I suppose so,' said Alice.
'Well, then,' the Cat went on, 'you see, a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I'm mad.'
'I call it purring, not growling,' said Alice.
'Call it what you like,' said the Cat. 'Do you play croquet with the Queen to–day?'
'I should like it very much,' said Alice, 'but I haven't been invited yet.'
'You'll see me there,' said the Cat, and vanished.
Alice was not much surprised at this, she was getting so used to queer things happening. While she was looking at the place where it had been, it suddenly appeared again.
'By–the–bye, what became of the baby?' said the Cat. 'I'd nearly forgotten to ask.'
'It turned into a pig,' Alice quietly said, just as if it had come back in a natural way.
'I thought it would,' said the Cat, and vanished again.
Alice waited a little, half expecting to see it again, but it did not appear, and after a minute or two she walked on in the direction in which the March Hare was said to live. 'I've seen hatters before,' she said to herself; 'the March Hare will be much the most interesting, and perhaps as this is May it won't be raving mad—at least not so mad as it was in March.' As she said this, she looked up, and there was the Cat again, sitting on a branch of a tree.
'Did you say pig, or fig?' said the Cat.
'I said pig,' replied Alice; 'and I wish you wouldn't keep appearing and vanishing so suddenly: you make one quite giddy.'
'All right,' said the Cat; and this time it vanished quite slowly, beginning with the end of the tail, and ending with the grin, which remained some time after the rest of it had gone.
'Well! I've often seen a cat without a grin,' thought Alice; 'but a grin without a cat! It's the most curious thing I ever saw in my life!'
She had not gone much farther before she came in sight of the house of the March Hare: she thought it must be the right house, because the chimneys were shaped like ears and the roof was thatched with fur. It was so large a house, that she did not like to go nearer till she had nibbled some more of the lefthand bit of mushroom, and raised herself to about two feet high: even then she walked up towards it rather timidly, saying to herself 'Suppose it should be raving mad after all! I almost wish I'd gone to see the Hatter instead!'

Hawks raid social development department in Pietermartizburg
by Azarrah KarrimMembers of the Durban serious corruption investigation unit of the Hawks have raided the Department of Social Development in Pietermaritzburg.
Amid an investigation into corrupt activities, a search and seizure operation was conducted, KwaZulu-Natal Hawks spokesperson Captain Simphiwe Mhlongo confirmed to News24 on Thursday.
"We can confirm that Hawks members from the Durban serious corruption investigation unit conducted a search and seizure operation at social development offices in Pietermaritzburg.
"The search emanates from the ongoing investigation of fraud, corruption, money laundering and contravention of the PFMA [Public Finance Management Act]," Mhlongo said.
According to the Maritzburg Sun, the Hawks were seen leaving the building with bags and documents.
The publication reported that allegations of corruption surfaced against the department's senior officials, alleging that millions of rand were siphoned through bogus organisations.
The raid follows a week-long protest by NPOs against the department.


Here's Monster Hunter World: Iceborne's Safi'jiiva armour set bonuses
Jeff's got a nice armor set.
by Hirun CryerThe full Safi'jiiva Siege won't actually be going live until Friday, 13th December in Monster Hunter World: Iceborne, but we've got an early look at armour stats for the monster's set.
The video below shows off the beta version of the Safi'jiiva armour. You'll be able to earn this by slaying the Safi'jiiva from this Friday, in the Siege mission which lets up to 16 players fight the beast at once.
There are two versions of the main armour skill: Dragonvein Awakening, unlocked with three pieces of the set equipped, and True Dragonvein Awakening, unlocked if you're wearing all five pieces.
These skills pack a punch. The Dragonvein Awakening skill grants +20 Affinity and +80 elemental damage, while the True Dragonvein Awakening Skill boasts a +40 Affinity with +150 elemental damage bonus.
But there's a catch for all this power. Every time you deal damage with the Safi'jiiva armour set, you'll take damage by an amount that's dictated by the type of weapon you're using. As the video details, this will be 4 damage for Insect Glaive users, for example. After you've landed 40 damage on a monster, you'll heal roughly 65 health back over a short time, during which your own attacks won't hurt you. It's a pretty risky strategy, especially if you're going up against Iceborne's endgame monsters like the Safi'jiiva itself.
Last week we heard about the Safi'jiiva Siege encounter's weapon rewards, which feature the first proper instance of RNG stats in Monster Hunter: World.
