Numbers are numbers, you have to see it! - Selenium edition
When looking at performance data and comparisons, numbers are just that: " X is 23% faster than y" is a statement few people can actually visualize. You have to see it in action to get a feel for the real difference. Applies to vehicles and web sites in the same manner.
Instinctively one would opt for a load test to see loading speeds, but after checking options I found a functional test will do just fine. My tool of choice here is Selenium WebDriver. It can be easily integrated into JUnit test and with a little effort even automatically record the whole session. So here is my test plan:
As usual YMMV.
Instinctively one would opt for a load test to see loading speeds, but after checking options I found a functional test will do just fine. My tool of choice here is Selenium WebDriver. It can be easily integrated into JUnit test and with a little effort even automatically record the whole session. So here is my test plan:
- Get a list of 2-3 URLs from the command line
- Open a new clean browser session for the number of URLs fetched
- Position the browser windows next to each other, so each has the same size
- Wait for the user hitting enter to start (so (s)he can adjust window sizes or resequence them)
- Spin of one thread for each URL to load the page
- Wait again
- Tear down the setup
- Can be fully integrated in JUnit tests
- No new language to learn (it has bindings for quite some)
- Functional test can be done without a specific browser using a generic web driver
- Provides visible browser drivers (for Firefox and others) that by default use a new clean profile (no cache, no cookies)
- Rich community and tons of examples
- Can be used in your own code or delegated to cloud based testing service
- Can test JavaScript, Ajax, Drag & Drop and Mobile

"I call it my billion-dollar mistake...My goal was to ensure that all use of references should be absolutely safe, with checking performed automatically by the compiler. But I couldn't resist the temptation to put in a null reference, simply because it was so easy to implement. This has led to innumerable errors, vulnerabilities, and system crashes, which have probably caused a billion dollars of pain and damage in the last forty years."
"Most bugs are a result of the execution state not being exactly what you think it is."
doSomething(arg)
if arg is null
return
// other code
S.O.L.I.D.
a.k.a. the 90s were rad
Right?
OOP...😩
Okay, well maybe we can salvage something from this OOP mistake 😉 Let's think about things in terms of unit testing and functions. In OOP, a class or module should only do one thing to avoid confusion. What if we said functions should do the same? That would mean that my function should only do one thing, and hopefully, if I give it some input, it'll always return me the same output. This is called deterministic. But if my function returns something other than an expected value i.e. null, then my function is no longer deterministic.
doSomething(arg)
if arg is null
return
// other code
doOtherThing(otherArg)
val = doSomething(otherArg)
if val is null
return
So this is great: my original short-circuit in the doSomething() function is forcing me to short-circuit my new function! But what if I did something worse?
doSomething(arg)
if arg is null
return
// other code
doOtherThing(otherArg)
val = doSomething(otherArg)
// other code using val
So this is even better: now I'm not even bothering to check the return value of doSomething(). What if another dev were to start using the doOtherThing() function? What if bad data gets passed into doOtherThing()? How would that dev have any idea what is correct data and that the function call could return something unexpected?
doSomething(arg="value")
// some code with arg
doOtherThing(otherArg)
// hmm...what if otherArg is null?
val = doSomething(otherArg)
This is better in that our code won't fail on a null value, and may even save us a bit of time when we're feeling too lazy to pass-in an arg! Unfortunately, by making a functional contract optional, we may end up confusing other devs, causing them to forget to pass in data! And of course, it still doesn't help us during runtime, because bad data may unintentionally default the arg.
doSomething(arg: string)
// some code with arg
doOtherThing(otherArg: object)
// what if otherArg.val is null during runtime?
val = doSomething(otherArg.val)
Strong typing does indeed enforce typing at compile time, but typically, null rears it's head during runtime. Bad data can still be passed-in!
Of course, if you still like writing code with the training wheels on, then knock yourself out. The jury is still out on the "benefits" of strong typing.
Err...no. Since we're already dealing with functions, then we're already functional. I suppose you could pass back a proxy value.
doSomething(arg)
// some code
return Promise()
doOtherThing(otherArg)
promise = doSomething(otherArg)
promise.then(handlePromise)
promise.catch(errorPromise)
Unfortunately, passing a proxy value like a Promise (or an Either or a Maybe for you ADT gurus) only makes your code more complicated. Sure, your code won't fail, but you just abstracted away your code so that no one can easily tell what's going on. And no, having separate code branching paths through your entire codebase only SKYROCKETS YOUR CYCLOMATIC COMPLEXTITY.

Embrace default models, mixins, and errors! If you're missing data, then most of the time your app should fail gracefully! Trying to code around missing data will result in you rewriting your app within a few years!
And Don't Tell the Suits! 🤫
You write code for the poor soul who must maintain it months from now. God have mercy upon their soul.

HTML5 Boilerplate homepage | [Documentation
table of contents](TOC.md)
By default, HTML5 Boilerplate provides two html
pages:
index.html
- a default HTML skeleton that should form the
basis of all pages on your website404.html
- a placeholder 404 error pageindex.html
no-js
ClassThe no-js
class is provided in order to allow you to more easily and
explicitly add custom styles based on whether JavaScript is disabled (.no-js
)
or enabled (.js
). Using this technique also helps avoid the
FOUC.
Please consider specifying the language of your content by adding a
value
to the lang
attribute in the <html>
as in this example:
<html class="no-js" lang="en">
<title>
and <news-meta>
tagsThe charset declaration (<news-meta charset="utf-8">
) must be included completely
within the first 1024 bytes of the
document
and should be specified as early as possible (before any content that could be
controlled by an attacker, such as a <title>
element) in order to avoid a
potential encoding-related security
issue
in Internet Explorer
The description
news-meta tag provides a short description of the page. In some
situations this description is used as a part of the snippet shown in the search
results.
<news-meta name="description" content="This is a description">
Google’s Create good news-meta descriptions documentation has useful tips on creating an effective description.
There are a few different options that you can use with the viewport
news-meta
tag. You can find out more in the MDN
Web
Docs.
HTML5 Boilerplate comes with a simple setup that strikes a good balance for
general use cases.
<news-meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
If you want to take advantage of edge-to-edge displays of iPhone X/XS/XR you can do so with additional viewport parameters. Check the WebKit blog for details.
The Open Graph Protocol allows you to define the way your site is presented when referenced on third party sites and applications (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn). The protocol provides a series of news-meta elements that define the details of your site. The required attributes define the title, preview image, URL, and type (e.g., video, music, website, article).
<news-meta property="og:title" content="">
<news-meta property="og:type" content="">
<news-meta property="og:url" content="">
<news-meta property="og:image" content="">
In addition to these four attributes there are many more attributes you can use to add more richness to the description of your site. This just represents the most basic implementation.
To see a working example, the following is the open graph news-metadata for the HTML5
Boilerplate site. In addition to the required fields we add og:description
to
describe the site in more detail.
<news-meta name="og:url" content="https://html5boilerplate.com/">
<news-meta name="og:title" content="HTML5 ★ BOILERPLATE">
<news-meta name="og:type" content="website">
<news-meta name="og:description" content="The web’s most popular front-end template which helps you build fast, robust, and adaptable web apps or sites.">
<news-meta name="og:image" content="https://html5boilerplate.com/icon.png">
HTML5 Boilerplate includes a simple web app manifest file.
The web app manifest is a simple JSON file that allows you to control how your app appears on a device’s home screen, what it looks like when it launches in that context and what happens when it is launched. This allows for much greater` control over the UI of a saved site or web app on a mobile device.
It’s linked to from the HTML as follows:
<link rel="manifest" href="site.webmanifest">
Our site.webmanifest contains a very skeletal “app” definition, just to show the basic usage. You should fill this file out with more information about your site or application
The shortcut icons should be put in the root directory of your site.
favicon.ico
is automatically picked up by browsers if it’s placed in the root.
HTML5 Boilerplate comes with a default set of icons (include favicon and one
Apple Touch Icon) that you can use as a baseline to create your own.
Please refer to the more detailed description in the Extend section of these docs.
The central part of the boilerplate template is pretty much empty. This is intentional, in order to make the boilerplate suitable for both web page and web app development.
HTML5 Boilerplate uses a custom build of Modernizr.
Modernizr is a JavaScript library which adds classes
to the html
element based on the results of feature test and which ensures
that all browsers can make use of HTML5 elements (as it includes the HTML5
Shiv). This allows you to target parts of your CSS and JavaScript based on the
features supported by a browser.
Starting with version 3 Modernizr can be customized using the modernizr-config.json and the Modernizr command line utility.
If you need to include polyfills in your project, you must make sure those load before any other JavaScript. If you’re using a polyfill CDN service, like polyfill.io, just put it before the other scripts in the bottom of the page:
<script src="js/vendor/modernizr-3.10.0.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://polyfill.io/v3/polyfill.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/plugins.js"></script>
<script src="js/main.js"></script>
</body>
If you like to just include the polyfills yourself, you could include them in
js/plugins.js
. When you have a bunch of polyfills to load in, you could also
create a polyfills.js
file in the js/vendor
directory or include the files
individually and combine them using a build tool. Always ensure that the
polyfills are all loaded before any other JavaScript.
There are some misconceptions about Modernizr and polyfills. It’s important to understand that Modernizr just handles feature checking, not polyfilling itself. The only thing Modernizr does regarding polyfills is that the team maintains a huge list of cross Browser polyfills.
As of v8.0.0 we no longer include jQuery by default. Web development has changed a lot since we started this project and while many millions of sites still use jQuery there are many sites and applications that don’t. 10 years ago jQuery was JavaScript for most developers. That’s not the case any more so we’ve made the decision to remove jQuery from the project.
If you’re interested in including it, you can easily install jQuery using the following command:
npm install jQuery
You can then copy the minified file into the vendor
folder and add jQuery
to the index.html
manually.
To load jQuery from a CDN with a local fallback you can use the following:
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.min.js" integrity="sha256-9/aliU8dGd2tb6OSsuzixeV4y/faTqgFtohetphbbj0=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="js/vendor/jquery-3.5.1.min.js"><\/script>')</script>
Finally, an optimized version of the Google Universal Analytics tracking code is included.
We use analytics.js
rather than the newer gtag.js
as it’s faster and
supports tasks and
plugins
Starting with version 8.0.0 we, by default, anonymize IP addresses. By default Google Analytics records the full IP address of a user visiting the site, but that full IP address is never available to the Google Analytics property admin. By anonymizing the IP address you can make your site more GDPR-compliant as a full IP address can be defined as PII (personally identifiable information.)
The beacon transport mechanism is used to send all hits which saves HTTP requests and improves performance.
Google recommends that this script be placed at the top of the page. Factors to consider: if you place this script at the top of the page, you’ll be able to count users who don’t fully load the page, and you’ll incur the max number of simultaneous connections of the browser.
Please be aware that while Google states that it is fully GDPR compliant, it is still possible to use analytics to violate GDPR.
Further information:
N.B. The Google Analytics snippet is included by default mainly because Google Analytics is currently one of the most popular tracking solutions out there. However, its usage isn’t set in stone, and you SHOULD consider exploring the alternatives and use whatever suits your needs best.


procedure Assign(Source: TPersistent); override;
Handles copying the source surface defined by the Source parameter to the current instance.
Internally it calls ChangeSize on the current back-end instance to set the new size. Then it copies the content of the source surface to the allocated surface via MoveLongword.
This method is used during switching of the back-end classes in TCustomBitmap32.

--- title: Biodiverskripsi - The Biodiversity Theses Database Project date: 2019-04-11T08:53:29+07:00 draft: true summary: Collating biodiversity data from unpublished student theses. header: #image should be in 'static/img' image: 'biodiverskripsi.png' caption: 'Designed by Tambora Muda Indonesia' focal_point: 'Smart' preview: 'true' show_comments: true tags: - biodiversity - database - theses - research ---
This project collate biodiversity data from unpublished student theses all over Indonesia issued from 2000 to 2017 to understand the extent of biodiversity knowledge gap filled by undergraduate research in the last decade. The resulting dataset contain various taxa commonly studied for undergraduate theses and was currently published in Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF). We are working to publish a corresponding paper to further increase the usage level of our dataset and assess the state of ecological monitoring research in Indonesia.
Biodiverskripsi was conducted by a dedicated team from Tambora Muda Indonesia and several university stakeholders who share the same understanding on the importance of integrated biodiversity data for scientific research and conservation practices. We are currently collaborating with Universitas Papua, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Universitas Sumatera Utara, and several groups of independent researchers from various universities. We are expecting more Indonesian universities, students, practitioner or even public enthusiasts to collaborate in this project.
As a part of Tambora Muda Indonesia mission to encourage young conservationists to contribute to Indonesian conservation, this project held several mini-workshops for Indonesian students. Biodiversity data portal was not the common norm currently and using data portal was challenging for most of our participants. The seemingly intuitive design of GBIF portal was even deemed confusing by several participants.
If you are interested in our project, or have other relevant grey literature you want to contribute, contact us at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>See our project page in GBIF for more information in English and our portal for more information in Indonesian.

In sooth, I know not why I am so sad;
It wearies me; you say it wearies you;
But how I caught it, found it, or came by it,
What stuff 'tis made of, whereof it is born,
I am to learn;
And such a want-wit sadness makes of me
That I have much ado to know myself.
SALARINO.
Your mind is tossing on the ocean;
There where your argosies, with portly sail—
Like signiors and rich burghers on the flood,
Or as it were the pageants of the sea—
Do overpeer the petty traffickers,
That curtsy to them, do them reverence,
As they fly by them with their woven wings.
SALANIO.
Believe me, sir, had I such venture forth,
The better part of my affections would
Be with my hopes abroad. I should be still
Plucking the grass to know where sits the wind,
Peering in maps for ports, and piers, and roads;
And every object that might make me fear
Misfortune to my ventures, out of doubt
Would make me sad.
SALARINO.
My wind, cooling my broth
Would blow me to an ague, when I thought
What harm a wind too great might do at sea.
I should not see the sandy hour-glass run
But I should think of shallows and of flats,
And see my wealthy Andrew dock'd in sand,
Vailing her high top lower than her ribs
To kiss her burial. Should I go to church
And see the holy edifice of stone,
And not bethink me straight of dangerous rocks,
Which, touching but my gentle vessel's side,
Would scatter all her spices on the stream,
Enrobe the roaring waters with my silks,
And, in a word, but even now worth this,
And now worth nothing? Shall I have the thought
To think on this, and shall I lack the thought
That such a thing bechanc'd would make me sad?
But tell not me; I know Antonio
Is sad to think upon his merchandise.
ANTONIO.
Believe me, no; I thank my fortune for it,
My ventures are not in one bottom trusted,
Nor to one place; nor is my whole estate
Upon the fortune of this present year;
Therefore my merchandise makes me not sad.
SALARINO.
Why, then you are in love.
ANTONIO.
Fie, fie!
SALARINO.
Not in love neither?  Now, by two-headed Janus,
Nature hath fram'd strange fellows in her time:
Some that will evermore peep through their eyes,
And laugh like parrots at a bag-piper;
And other of such vinegar aspect
That they'll not show their teeth in way of smile
Though Nestor swear the jest be laughable.
(Enter BASSANIO, LORENZO, and GRATIANO.)
SALANIO.
Here comes Bassanio, your most noble kinsman,
Gratiano, and Lorenzo. Fare ye well;
We leave you now with better company.
SALARINO.
I would have stay'd till I had made you merry,
If worthier friends had not prevented me.
ANTONIO.
Your worth is very dear in my regard.

SALARINO.
Good morrow, my good lords.
BASSANIO.
Good signiors both, when shall we laugh? Say when.
You grow exceeding strange; must it be so?
SALARINO.
We'll make our leisures to attend on yours.
(Exeunt SALARINO and SALANIO.)
LORENZO.
My Lord Bassanio, since you have found Antonio,
We two will leave you; but at dinner-time,
I pray you, have in mind where we must meet.
BASSANIO.
I will not fail you.
GRATIANO.
You look not well, Signior Antonio;
You have too much respect upon the world;
They lose it that do buy it with much care.
Believe me, you are marvellously chang'd.
ANTONIO.
I hold the world but as the world, Gratiano;
A stage, where every man must play a part,
And mine a sad one.
GRATIANO.
Let me play the fool;
With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come;
And let my liver rather heat with wine
Than my heart cool with mortifying groans.
Why should a man whose blood is warm within
Sit like his grandsire cut in alabaster,
Sleep when he wakes, and creep into the jaundice
By being peevish? I tell thee what, Antonio—
I love thee, and 'tis my love that speaks—
There are a sort of men whose visages
Do cream and mantle like a standing pond,
And do a wilful stillness entertain,
With purpose to be dress'd in an opinion
Of wisdom, gravity, profound conceit;
As who should say 'I am Sir Oracle,
And when I ope my lips let no dog bark.'
O my Antonio, I do know of these
That therefore only are reputed wise
For saying nothing; when, I am very sure,
If they should speak, would almost damn those ears
Which, hearing them, would call their brothers fools.
I'll tell thee more of this another time.
But fish not with this melancholy bait,
For this fool gudgeon, this opinion.
Come, good Lorenzo. Fare ye well awhile;
I'll end my exhortation after dinner.
LORENZO.
Well, we will leave you then till dinner-time.

GRATIANO.
Well, keep me company but two years moe,
Thou shalt not know the sound of thine own tongue.
ANTONIO.
Fare you well; I'll grow a talker for this gear.
GRATIANO.
Thanks, i' faith, for silence is only commendable
In a neat's tongue dried, and a maid not vendible.
(Exeunt GRATIANO and LORENZO.)
ANTONIO.
Is that anything now?
BASSANIO.
Gratiano speaks an infinite deal of nothing, more than
any man in all Venice. His reasons are as two grains of wheat hid
in, two bushels of chaff: you shall seek all day ere you find
them, and when you have them they are not worth the search.
ANTONIO.
Well; tell me now what lady is the same
To whom you swore a secret pilgrimage,
That you to-day promis'd to tell me of?
BASSANIO.
'Tis not unknown to you, Antonio,
How much I have disabled mine estate
By something showing a more swelling port
Than my faint means would grant continuance;
Nor do I now make moan to be abridg'd
From such a noble rate; but my chief care
Is to come fairly off from the great debts
Wherein my time, something too prodigal,
Hath left me gag'd. To you, Antonio,
I owe the most, in money and in love;
And from your love I have a warranty
To unburden all my plots and purposes
How to get clear of all the debts I owe.
ANTONIO.
I pray you, good Bassanio, let me know it;
And if it stand, as you yourself still do,
Within the eye of honour, be assur'd
My purse, my person, my extremest means,
Lie all unlock'd to your occasions.
BASSANIO.
In my school-days, when I had lost one shaft,
I shot his fellow of the self-same flight
The self-same way, with more advised watch,
To find the other forth; and by adventuring both
I oft found both. I urge this childhood proof,
Because what follows is pure innocence.
I owe you much; and, like a wilful youth,
That which I owe is lost; but if you please
To shoot another arrow that self way
Which you did shoot the first, I do not doubt,
As I will watch the aim, or to find both,
Or bring your latter hazard back again
And thankfully rest debtor for the first.
ANTONIO.
You know me well, and herein spend but time
To wind about my love with circumstance;
And out of doubt you do me now more wrong
In making question of my uttermost
Than if you had made waste of all I have.
Then do but say to me what I should do
That in your knowledge may by me be done,
And I am prest unto it; therefore, speak.
BASSANIO.
In Belmont is a lady richly left,
And she is fair and, fairer than that word,
Of wondrous virtues.
O my Antonio! had I but the means
To hold a rival place with one of them,
I have a mind presages me such thrift
That I should questionless be fortunate.
ANTONIO.
Thou know'st that all my fortunes are at sea;
Neither have I money nor commodity
To raise a present sum; therefore go forth,
Try what my credit can in Venice do;
That shall be rack'd, even to the uttermost,
To furnish thee to Belmont to fair Portia.
Go presently inquire, and so will I,
Where money is; and I no question make
To have it of my trust or for my sake.
(Exeunt)

.NET Foundation Established to Foster Open Development
At the Build 2014 conference today, Microsoft Corp. announced it is creating an independent .NET Foundation to foster open development and collaboration around the growing collection of open source technologies for .NET. It will serve as a forum for commercial and community developers alike to strengthen the future of the .NET ecosystem by promoting openness, community participation and rapid innovation.
Technology leader Xamarin also announced its support (blog/press release) for the .NET Foundation today. Microsoft will encourage further feedback and direct participation of the community so .NET continues to evolve to meet the changing needs of its broad customer base including enterprises, partners, individual developers and open source communities. As a first step, the .NET Foundation welcomes feedback on how best to frame the organization for those building .NET applications across the diverse world of connected devices and services.
The .NET Foundation will start with 24 .NET open source projects under its stewardship. Some of the more noteworthy projects that will be hosted by the .NET Foundation include the newly announced.NET Compiler Platform (“Roslyn”) as well as the ASP.NET family of open source projects, both open sourced by Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc. (MS Open Tech). Xamarin will contribute six of its projects including its open source email libraries: MimeKit and MailKit.
Many of the .NET developer technologies are already open source for areas such as Web apps, cloud apps, services and partner cross platform apps. In addition, the .NET Foundation includes new open source offerings that augment the existing .NET open source ecosystem such as the newly announced .NET Compiler Platform (“Roslyn”). These projects will be actively developed and fully supported by MS Open Tech, while their addition to the .NET Foundation will increase the level of transparency and community contributions.
For two years, the community has provided feedback to the ASP.NET Web developer tools including ASP.NET MVC, Web API, Web Pages (aka Razor), and Entity Framework open sourced by Microsoft. Developers outside Microsoft are continually monitoring the code on CodePlex, and providing feedback on code check-ins, bug fixes, and new feature development.
As S. Somasegar, Corporate Vice President of Microsoft Corp. Developer Division said, “The formation of an independent .NET Foundation with the open source community is one more way for us to support the collaborative and inventive spirit we see from developers. We’ve already seen how opening the development process to the community, in ASP.NET for example, has allowed .NET to innovate faster.”
“The .NET Foundation will help accelerate the adoption of .NET across every platform and computing form factor—servers, mobile devices and desktops,” said Miguel de Icaza, cofounder and CTO of Xamarin, and founding member of the .NET Foundation board. “We look forward to working with Microsoft and the entire .NET developer community to increase the rate of innovation.”
“We’re seeing the value and innovation being realized by our customers when the broader development community collaborates on our developer tools,” said Jay Schmelzer, partner director program manager
of .NET for the Microsoft Developer Division. “The .NET Foundation will support the long-term optimization of .NET for enterprise scenarios in an increasingly diverse IT ecosystem.”
“Community engagement through open source foundations has proven to nurture and advance core technologies that the IT industry relies upon,” said Gianugo Rabellino, senior director of open source communities for Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc. “Developers everywhere are innovating rapidly with the inherent power and flexibility of .NET, so it will be exciting to see how the future takes shape with the industry’s participation in open development projects at the .NET Foundation.”
.NET represents one of the largest communities of professional developers at over six million strong. .NET enables the rapid development of applications across devices and services, with elegant, simpler code, and the high quality and scalability required by any organization -- from individual developers to large enterprises -- and continues to attract support from the developer community.
Community participants welcomed the news of the .NET Foundation at Build 2014:
“In the past years, open source has gained in importance within Microsoft and I couldn’t be happier to see that happening,” said Laurent Bugnion, senior director, IdentityMine Europe. “My open source project MVVM Light has benefitted a lot from interactions with the Microsoft teams. It is very exciting and encouraging to see this new concerted effort in the .NET Foundation to support and promote open source projects.”
Umbraco Founder Niels Hartvig said, "At Umbraco we're thrilled to see what Microsoft is doing for open source with the .NET Foundation. It's great news for the industry in general and amazing news for anyone involved in .NET open source projects."
"It's great to see Microsoft making open source a first class citizen in the .NET space,” added Morten Christensen from Umbraco. “With the introduction of the .NET Foundation Microsoft is showing that they take open source serious and are supporting the community in ways not seen before."
"Open source in .NET has huge potential. To date, we as a community have produced some amazing software, but there is still so much possibility ahead, particularly if we are able to collaborate and grow together. The .NET Foundation represents this chance; together we can create a community that is both united and driven. Together, let’s make the next generation of .NET innovation an open source one," said Anthony van der Hoorn, co-founder of Glimpse.
"Open source is a huge deal to the health of every developer community - getting developers involved and building things together makes for better products and better developers, and I'm super excited to see Microsoft expanding their support of open source projects," said Paul Betts with GitHub.
"As one of the developers of Caliburn Micro it's exciting to hear about the new improvements Microsoft is bringing with their support of open source projects. Increased access, support and visibility will help in a number of ways to showcase our project to the .NET community. I can't wait to see what's next," said Nigel Sampson, founder of Compiled Experience.

This is my initial idea of two full range drivers and one "subwoofer" driver to deliver the bass.
I was a little enthusiastic with the dimensions and the finished product is a lot smaller than this.
Three chambers - one for each speaker. On the left sits a sealed lead acid battery for power and on the right are two amplifiers: one for the small full-range speakers, the other the power the sub.
Some scrap 5/8" plywood I had lying around.
Based from the measurements I made in SketchUp (21" x 12" x 9"), I cut out the bottom and side. The sheer size then became apparent and after a few calculations I decided to reduce the size to 18" x 10" x 7".
Measured out boxes 5/8" (the same thickness as the plywood) and made the cuts with a hack saw - yes I'm guilty of using a metal blade with wood!
Also guilty of using a sock with my clamp to protect the wood :)
Drilled a few overlapping holes until I could snap out the alternating boxes.
On the left sit the top and bottom pieces, the sides are in the centre and the front/back baffles complete the set on the right.
A little rough round the edges, but nice and stiff nevertheless!
Just your bog standard wood glue in between the box joint. Wish I had some clamps for this bit.
Marked out the holes for the three speakers, some of the holes to mount them and the holes to mount the thing to the main box.
Drilled a hole, cut roughly with the jig-saw and finished with the file.
Cut one of the holes a little too big so I created a wood glue/sawdust paste to patch up my shoddy work
Added these zinc flange brackets for rigidity and more importantly, something to mount the front and back baffles to the main body of the box.
They are not part of the structural integrity of the boombox hence a tight fit and a spot of wood glue is enough.
I apologise for the pun!
On the left are the nuts and bolts for the two full range speakers, the subwoofer bolts are in the centre and the front/back baffle mounting nuts/bolts complete the set
The two full-range speakers share a bolt for mounting
I had these lying around - they are both 12V amplifiers, take audio in with RCA sockets and claim to put out around 20W of power into two channels (exaggerated marketing).
I used the top amplifier for the bass (since it is bridged) and the bottom amp to driver the two full-range speakers.
Cut a piece of aluminium out and drilled holes such that both amplifiers can be mounted onto the same plate.
The black is just a protective film on the alu; this was my third attempt, ensuring everything was aligned was tricky.
On the far left of both amplifiers you can see two wires shorted together with some tape on top - this means they are always "on" so I could connect a DPDT switch (top left corner) that can switch both amplifiers on/off at the same time.
Both amplifiers are connected with DC jacks which are connected to a power source, more on this later.
Hard to see in the image - I desoldered the supply capacitor of the top amplifier and "extended" its leads so i could fit the switch in.
This configuration is also safer as the original designs have the switches AFTER the input capacitors which is quite dangerous if you mix your positive/negative up.
The two amplifiers controls hooked up to the same plate plus a switch which switches both amps on/off simultaneously.
Unfortunately there is one key thing missing: audio input! Not to worry - I solve this later on.
I ventured into the world of car audio for these speakers:
The two golden full-range speakers are 4 inch "auna Goldblaster 4's"
The bass speaker is a Pyramid Audio PW677X.
They claim to handle any power that I am planning on throwing at them and claim to have a sensitivity of 89 and 86 db/W/m for the full range and bass, respectively.
Picked up 6 1/2 yards of this very bold and colourful fabric from my local market.
I believe it's linen; it's quite thin but shall do the job in hand.
I am not in the possession of a fabric stapler or a nail gun, so I stretched the fabric over the wood and nailed the thing in by hand using small nails.
Found this little blue handle and though it'd match the aesthetics of the box - it is screwed in from the inside.
The two amplifiers have RCA jacks for audio input and I dug out this long, lost and forgotten cable from the depths of my cupboard to solve this.
I created this female 3.5mm jack to 2 sets of male RCA jack.
I was quite torn between making this a bluetooth speaker, a bluetooth/3.5mm or just a 3.5mm wired speaker and decided I hate bluetooth receiving modules and just settled for a wired connection
The full-range speaker amplifier is class D (very efficient) however the other bass amplifier is class AB (not so efficient) so I needed a beefy battery to keep this thing going at the volumes I like to listen to!
Much much cheaper than lithium batteries too :)
Usain in the background after his 8th Olympic medal :)
The battery sits on one side of the box and must be mounted to avoid it shaking around during transport.
I cover the metal braces with electrical tape, hence why they are hard to see.
Covered anything metallic and carrying electrical current with electrical tape.
I needed something to gauge how much juice is left in the SLA battery so I purchased this cheap little voltmeter with LCD display.
Decided that it would be nice to power this thing from the mains and be able to charge it with the same port hence the switch and the DC jack.
A little messy and scratched up - but still very functional.
The switch is used to change between battery power and DC from a power supply.
Power section on the left, Audio on the right
A lot of unseen changes here.
To the right of the voltmeter is a little push button so that the voltage is only displayed temporarily - this is done through necessity as the cheap meter spits out some interference which the amps pick up.
To the left is a little switch used to switch the DC jack's function - either charging the batteries or powering the amps. This was a little hacky and messy due to my lack of planning - oh well.
As mentioned, this boombox will receive audio through a 3.5mm jack which is now present on the top right corner of the amp plate.
I poked some holes in the separators to thread the audio and power cables across chambers.
The electronics work perfectly under battery power; unfortunately the weather's not so bright under DC power. Anyone with electronic/audio experience will look at this circuit and notice that running two amplifiers from the same source is a classic recipe for a ground loop. As of writing, I await delivery for a ground loop isolator to solve this problem.

Charles and Camilla greeted with boisterous haka in Auckland
Maori elders explained aspects of the welcome which saw a warrior lay down a dart in a challenge, or wero, to Charles.
The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall have been given a traditional Maori greeting with a boisterous haka on the grounds of Auckland’s Government House.
Charles and Camilla were greeted on the grounds by the Maori elders Kaumatua and Kuia and performed the hongi – a greeting which saw them rub noses.
The elders then explained aspects of the welcome which saw a Maori warrior lay down a dart in a challenge, or wero, to Charles.
A karanga – a call of welcome – was followed by a haka performed by members of the New Zealand Defence Force’s Maori cultural group
Charles then took the Royal Salute and inspected the Guard, before going on to hold private audiences with New Zealand’s Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and opposition leader Simon Bridges.

Study Notes: Passenger + Capistrano + Nginx + Rails 2.3.4 + Ubuntu 9.04 (10 steps)
This post is just copied from this page. As a study notes, I re-share this manual here. Please check out original one if you wanna have a whole view of other involving topics. Thanks to the author :)
- Install capistrano gem. if you use bundler you need to add just one line to Gemfile
gem "capistrano"
and then rungem bundle
- after capistrano installed you need to make Capfile and default deploy.rb, run such from the root of your application
capify .
- create user for deployments in remote machine (let’s say ‘deploy’ user)
adduser deploy
- add sudo privileges to this user. add one line in your /etc/sudoers file
deploy ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
- adjust deploy.rb for you. I used example from this link
to understand how it works – read this linkApplication
set :application, "test" set :deploy_to, "/var/www/#{application}"
Settings
defaultrunoptions[:pty] = true set :use_sudo, true
Servers
set :user, "deploy" set :domain, "rustam.example.com" server domain, :app, :web role :db, domain, :primary => true
Subversion
set :repository, "http://www.rustam.example.com" set :svnusername, "rustam" set :svnpassword, "password" set :checkout, "export"
Passenger
namespace :passenger do desc "Restart Application" task :restart do run "touch #{current_path}/tmp/restart.txt" end end after :deploy, "passenger:restart"
- if you don’t use bundler, skip it. Otherwise, it will be usefull to add such piece of code to your deploy.rb file (from Richie’s post)
it will bundle all production gems to your bundlergems pathbundler
namespace :bundler do task :install do run("gem install bundler --source=http://gemcutter.org") end
task :symlinkvendor do sharedgems = File.join(sharedpath, 'vendor/bundlergems') releasegems = "#{releasepath}/vendor/bundlergems/" %w(cache gems specifications).each do |subdir| sharedsubdir = File.join(sharedgems, subdir) run("mkdir -p #{sharedsubdir} && mkdir -p #{releasegems} && ln -s #{sharedsubdir} #{releasegems}/#{sub_dir}") end end
task :bundlenewrelease do bundler.symlinkvendor railsenv = variables[:railsenv] || 'production' run("cd #{releasepath} && gem bundle --only #{rails_env}") end end
after 'deploy:updatecode', 'bundler:bundlenewrelease'
- ask Capistrano to create set of folders for deployments in the remote machine
cap deploy:setup
- ask capistrano to check all remote folders:
cap deploy:check
it will return to you all problems that you have with both locale/remote machines – structure of folders/permissions etc. you can get something like this:The following dependencies failed. Please check them and try again: --> You do not have permissions to write to
When you’ll fix everything, you’ll get such:/var/www'. (rustam.example.com) --> You do not have permissions to write to
/var/www/releases’. (rustam.example.com)You appear to have all necessary dependencies installed
it means that you’re finished with capistrano configs - you need to install passenger and nginx module for passenger in your remote machine according to this
sudo gem install passenger sudo passenger-install-nginx-module
the second command will tell you how to configure Nginx and to deploy rails application. it will create Nginx configuration file for you:/opt/nginx/conf/nginx.conf)
you need to change server block thereserver { listen 80; servername rustam.example.com; root /var/www/current/public; # <--- notice the 'public' part passengerenabled on; # <--- don't forget this!li }
everything is finished for passenger and nginx! - you can start deploy you app!
cap deploy:update

FYI - Extra step: if you’re using bundler and used Yehuda’s link to run it(like me ), you’ll have a problem with preinitializer. I used Tom Ward’s solution to fix it
i.e. put only such line to preinitializer.rb
require File.expandpath(File.join(File.dirname(FILE_), "..", "gems", "environment"))
and add such piece of code just after loading bootHijack rails initializer to load the bundler gem
environment before loading the rails environment.

Qrencode is a fast and compact library for encoding data in a QR Code symbol, a 2D symbology that can be scanned by handheld terminals such as a mobile phone with a CCD sensor.
This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-10.1 platform.
Download (HTTP): https://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/qrencode-4.1.1.tar.bz2
Download MD5 sum: de7185bcab635a34730e1b73d4efa705
Download size: 451 KB
Estimated disk space required: 5.0 MB (with documentation, add 5 MB for tests)
Estimated build time: less than 0.1 SBU, add 0.1 SBU for tests
Doxygen-1.9.1 for generating documentation, and SDL2-2.0.14 for tests
User Notes: http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/qrencode
Install libqrencode by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr && make
If you have installed Doxygen-1.9.1, you can build the documentation by issuing:
doxygen
The tests must be run after installing the package.
Now, as the root
user:
make install
If you have built the optional documentation, install it as the
root
user:
install -vdm 755 /usr/share/doc/qrencode-4.1.1 && mv html/* /usr/share/doc/qrencode-4.1.1
To test the results, if you have passed the --with-tests
option to configure, issue: make check.
--with-tests
: This option allows
building the test programs. It requires SDL2-2.0.14.
--without-tools
: This option prevents
building the qrencode
executable, removing the need for libpng-1.6.37.
