create a user group called shiny-apps and add both dean and shiny users to it. make sure that the whole /srv/shiny-server folder has read+write permissions to the group.
sudo groupadd shiny-apps
sudo usermod -aG shiny-apps ttmmghmm
sudo usermod -aG shiny-apps shiny
cd /srv/shiny-server
sudo chown -R ttmmghmm:shiny-apps .
sudo chmod g+s .
have the /srv/shiny-server/ folder be a git repository, so that you can push to this repository from your personal computer and whenever you do a git pull on your droplet, it will update and grab the new apps you added.
The first step is to install git and make the /srv/shiny-server/ directory a git repository.
sudo apt-get install git
cd /srv/shiny-server
git init
git remote add origin git@github.com:ttmmghmm/shiny-server.git
git add .
git config --global user.email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>git config --global user.name "ttmmghmm"
git commit -m "Initial commit"
mkdir -p $HOME/.ssh
chmod 0700 $HOME/.ssh
#1: Create the key pair
ssh-keygen -t rsa
cat $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub # paste into github page
git push -u origin master
Refresh the GitHub page, you should see the files that were added from the droplet.
Add shiny apps to this repository. Whenever you add a new shiny app or edit the index page or an existing app, you???ll need to do a git pull on your droplet to grab those changes and display them in your server.
some workplace environments often block access to those ports. Use a reverse proxy, so that nginx will listen on port 80 (default HTTP port) at the URL /shiny and will internally redirect that to port 3838. Same for RStudio - we can have nginx listen at /rstudio and redirect it to port 8787. e.g. Shiny apps can be reached at daattali.com/shiny/ which is an easy URL to type, but also at daattali.com:3838. edit the nginx config file /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
after the line that reads server_name localhost;:
location /shiny/ {
proxy_pass http://<IP_ADDRESS>:3838/;
}
location /rstudio/ {
proxy_pass http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8787/;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
#location /rstudio/ {
# proxy_pass http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8787/;
#}
Since we changed the nginx config, we need to restart nginx for it to take effect. sudo service nginx restart

In this subsection, we will summarize all the available error bounds. Later subsections will provide further details. The reader may also refer to [12,95].
Bounds for individual eigenvalues and eigenvectors are provided by driver xGEEVX (subsection 2.3.4) or computational routine xTRSNA (subsection 2.4.5). Bounds for clusters of eigenvalues and their associated invariant subspace are provided by driver xGEESX (subsection 2.3.4) or computational routine xTRSEN (subsection 2.4.5).
We let be the ith computed eigenvalue and an ith true eigenvalue.4.1 Let be the corresponding computed right eigenvector, and vi a true right eigenvector (so ). If is a subset of the integers from 1 to n, we let denote the average of the selected eigenvalues: , and similarly for . We also let denote the subspace spanned by ; it is called a right invariant subspace because if v is any vector in then Av is also in . is the corresponding computed subspace.
The algorithms for the nonsymmetric eigenproblem are normwise backward stable: they compute the exact eigenvalues, eigenvectors and invariant subspaces of slightly perturbed matrices A+E, where . Some of the bounds are stated in terms of |E|2 and others in terms of |E|F; one may use to approximate either quantity. The code fragment in the previous subsection approximates |E| by , where is returned by xGEEVX.
xGEEVX (or xTRSNA) returns two quantities for each , pair: si and . xGEESX (or xTRSEN) returns two quantities for a selected subset of eigenvalues: and . si (or ) is a reciprocal condition number for the computed eigenvalue (or ), and is referred to as RCONDE by xGEEVX (or xGEESX). (or ) is a reciprocal condition number for the right eigenvector (or ), and is referred to as RCONDV by xGEEVX (or xGEESX). The approximate error bounds for eigenvalues, averages of eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and invariant subspaces provided in Table 4.5 are true for sufficiently small |E|, which is why they are called asymptotic.
If the problem is ill-conditioned, the asymptotic bounds may only hold for extremely small |E|. Therefore, in Table 4.6 we also provide global bounds which are guaranteed to hold for all .
We also have the following bound, which is true for all E: all the lie in the union of n disks, where the i-th disk is centered at and has radius n |E|2 / si. If k of these disks overlap, so that any two points inside the k disks can be connected by a continuous curve lying entirely inside the k disks, and if no larger set of k+1 disks has this property, then exactly k of the lie inside the union of these k disks. Figure 4.1 illustrates this for a 10-by-10 matrix, with 4 such overlapping unions of disks, two containing 1 eigenvalue each, one containing 2 eigenvalues, and one containing 6 eigenvalues.
Finally, the quantities s and tell use how we can best (block) diagonalize a matrix A by a similarity, , where each diagonal block Aii has a selected subset of the eigenvalues of A. Such a decomposition may be useful in computing functions of matrices, for example. The goal is to choose a V with a nearly minimum condition number which performs this decomposition, since this generally minimizes the error in the decomposition. This may be done as follows. Let Aii be ni-by-ni. Then columns through of V span the invariant subspace of A corresponding to the eigenvalues of Aii; these columns should be chosen to be any orthonormal basis of this space (as computed by xGEESX, for example). Let be the value corresponding to the cluster of eigenvalues of Aii, as computed by xGEESX or xTRSEN. Then , and no other choice of V can make its condition number smaller than [26]. Thus choosing orthonormal subblocks of V gets to within a factor b of its minimum value.
In the case of a real symmetric (or complex Hermitian) matrix, s=1 and is the absolute gap, as defined in subsection 4.7. The bounds in Table 4.5 then reduce to the bounds in subsection 4.7.


Synergy 1.5b is out

Synergy Classic 1.5b is out, and available for immediate download.
Full change log here.
Enjoy!

anonymous
just installed -
i hit the button to go to next track - all is fine
if i hit it immediately again synergy quits. -
any fixes? or a way to go back to the previous version?
thanks
-
anonymous
the issue seems to be with the floater - just turned that off and the button set seems to be working ok now.
though i still want the floater back!!!

I just wanted to say thanks for this incredible release! Synergy really IS a lot snappier. I experienced no problems so far.

Excellent! I've been wanting this for a long time. Nice to see Synergy now idling at 0.0%. I'm interested in the internal changes to iTunes that enable this - does iTunes now post notifications to OS X's notification service? (I've never looked into this area of OS X, but am I right in assuming it has a notification service and it can be used for this type of thing?) How did you find out about it? I didn't see anything to do with that type of change mentioned in the release notes.
I'm guessing Apple finally decided to add this functionality to iTunes because their iTunes widget in Tiger needs it. It would be a bit of an ugly hack if they had to constantly poll iTunes. (Not saying that Synergy has been an ugly hack until now - far from it, it's just that Apple has the power to implement it more elegantly so it's not surprising they chose to do so.)

Check out this bug report:
https://wincent.com/a/support/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=34
Two people who are running 10.2.8 have reported it, but I think I've now fixed it. There is a download link in that bug to the new build. I would appreciate it if you could try it out and add comments to the bug.
As for going back to an old version, the last version is still on all the mirrors. Eg:
http://mirror.lavertue.com/synergy/Synergy1.4.dmg http://wincent.daviddauer.de/Synergy1.4.dmg ftp://ftp.sunwizard.net/mirrors/wincent/Synergy1.4.dmg http://mirror.overengineers.com/Synergy1.4.dmg http://www.gritsch-soft.com/~winswitch/Synergy1.4.dmg

It's called NSDistributedNotificationCenter. If you look at the WinSwitch source code you can see the kind of reverse engineering one needs to do to figure out these things (thankfully, not too much!).

I think you're dead right. I also think they're using it for the iChat/iTunes integration in Tiger. Needless to say, I'll be taking full advantage of all this for Synergy Advance, which will include Dashboard support.
 I am very glad to be rid of it. And from the feedback, the users love the increased performance. Next version should have even more performance. In fixing the 10.2.8 bug I've already cut remaining communications with iTunes in half again.

Hey Wincent, Will 1.5 have Growl support?
Cheers Chris

It's something I've started working on, although I don't yet know which version it will go into.

I have been having stability problems with my copy of 1.5b, it only occurs when synergy/iTunes sit idle overnight (when I go home from work). When I come in in the morning, both Synergy and iTunes are hung, and require a force quit/kill. I am using a dual 2.0 G5. Is there any debug info that I can submit to help trace the bug?

There certainly is. Check out this article I wrote on how to file a useful bug report and then head over to the bug tracking database...

Found myself in some training this last week using MariaDB, and being that I like to get a bit more hands on than most, using the class provided lab environment wasn't going to cut it. This meant wrapping some scripting into a Vagrant environment so I could reliably reporduce the three node lab.
You'll need Vagrant and Git. It's also preferred that you have vagrant-cachier installed. You should have vagrant-cachier anyways, but alas, that is not for right now. Once you have these out of the way, do the following:
git clone https://github.com/bunchc/mariadb-galera-vagrant.git
cd mariadb-galera-vagrant
vagrant up
After a few minutes, you should be able to log into any of the nodes. Specifically, node-01 will be used to 'bootstrap' the cluster, the other two nodes will join from there.
To validate the cluster:
vagrant ssh mariadb-02
sudo su -
mysql -uroot
SHOW GLOBAL STATUS LIKE 'wsrep%';
You should be able to do the above from any of the nodes in the cluster.


Google Chrome Close Other Tabs option now back in Chrome Canary
by SururWe reported a few days back that Google Chrome developers had agreed to bring back the Close Other Tabs option in the right-click menu in the browser.
Now we are happy to report the feature is back in Chrome Canary, allowing you once again to efficiently dismiss all your open tabs except for the current one you are right-clicking on.
See the old and new options below:
Google had previously also restored the Close Tabs to the Right option. Hopefully the change signals that Google has given up simplifying the Right Click menu and will be concentrating their efforts on more productive areas.

My name is Jonathan Hammond. I'm a Support Analyst taking a Full Stack Developer coding bootcamp out of the University of New Hampshire, with six months experience as a Junior Web Developer.
Below, you will find a Tab component with links to my three best projects. You are invited to visit my Easy Recipeazy, JavaScript Password Generator and Coding Quiz creations. If you would like to speak further, I have provided all of my contact information as well. Cheers!
This was a group project focused on user ingredient selection for a nice meal or alcoholic beverage. Users click buttons to generate random meal/drink pairs, or individual meal and drink buttons. Then things get interesting!
Users can filter by ingredient. Every ingredient option generates from positively resolved Promise
objects, which are stored and given one of 3 possible attributes. Users can select one or more ingredients to increase the likelihood of finding a meal/drink with that item, or they can click again to 'dislike' an ingredient, so that it filters out items with that ingredient.
Finally, below the cards are tabs (similar to the ones you see here holding Projects 1, 2, and 3). Each tab contains either an ingredient or recipe for the meal and drink you are looking for.
Tools and Technologies Used:
This homework was my first venture into array methods such as push
and join
. I was able to learn a lot about writing functions that manipulated the DOM. I finished this assignment with time to spare, so I built a dark mode toggle, which was a great learning experience.
Users are able to select a character range between 8 and 128 characters. They are then able to select characters they would like to randomly show in their generator, such as lowercase or uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Once users check one or more character type boxes, they can generate a password. Clicking this button will also automatically copy the password to a user's clipboard.
If users click generate before selecting a character type, a modal will appear prompting users to select one or more character types.
Tools and Technologies Used:
This homework introduced me to setTimeout
, where I learned a lot about how pages look underneath the hood. User's times go up or down depending on if they get questions right or wrong. At the end of the game, remaining time becomes a user's high score. Users are prompted to enter their initials, and validation will prompt them to re-enter information if they do not.
One challenge was keeping the quiz all to a single page. I did this by creating HTML within the JavaScript and emptying element .innerHTML
across various functions. I stored questions within arrays, looped over their items and stored them into buttons, which was my favorite part of the code.
This was my first time using localStorage
. It took a lot of googling to figure out how to get items from the local storage object and store them into an empty array. Now that I've learned how to set and get items however, I look forward to using this functionality in future projects.

Turbo
Nothing irritates the temperamental, dreaming of speed snail with the speaking name Turbo, like a leisurely life, slow conversations, slowed down neighbors. Let our hero look like a big eccentric in this sluggish, leisurely world, let him go against the law of nature about the “born to crawl”, but if the “fiery motor” burns in the heart, and the soul believes in a miracle, it simply has no right not to happen!


EUR/USD focused on the 1.1090 region – Commerzbank
by Pablo PiovanoAccording to Karen Jones, Team Head FICC Technical Analysis Research at Commerzbank, the pair needs to surpass this area to allow a potential test of 1.1180.
Key Quotes
“EUR/USD continues to recover off the 61.8% retracement at 1.0994 and we have seen a recovery to the 55 day ma at 1.1091. We will need to regain this for a viable retest of the 1.1180 recent high (favoured). While capped by the 55 day ma, the market is regarded as under pressure and capable of extending the decline to the next Fibonacci support at 1.0943”.
“Above 1.1180 will target the 1.1262 top of the channel and the 1.1359 200 week ma”.

Sanskrit is a classical language with about 30 million extant manuscripts fit for digitisation, available in written, printed or scanned-image forms. However, it is still considered to be a low-resource language when it comes to available digital resources. In this work, we release a post-OCR text correction dataset containing around 218,000 sentences, with 1.5 million words, from 30 different books. Texts in Sanskrit are known to be diverse in terms of their linguistic and stylistic usage since Sanskrit was the `lingua francua’ for discourse in the Indian subcontinent for about 3 millennia. Keeping this in mind, we release a multi-domain dataset, from areas as diverse as astronomy, medicine and mathematics, with some of them as old as 18 centuries. Further, we release multiple strong baselines as benchmarks for the task, based on pre-trained Seq2Seq language models. We find that our best-performing model, consisting of byte level tokenization in conjunction with phonetic encoding (Byt5+SLP1), yields a 23% point increase over the OCR output in terms of word and character error rates. Moreover, we perform extensive experiments in evaluating these models on their performance and analyse common causes of mispredictions both at the graphemic and lexical levels. Our code and dataset is publicly available at https://github.com/ayushbits/pe-ocr-sanskrit.

In deriving the definitions of a starter and adder for a Room square,
the terminology of difference systems was introduced. We saw that a
requirement of the starter was that each non-zero member of the relevant
Galois field occurred exactly once as a difference between the members
of some pair. This was so that each pair occurred exactly once in the
Room square
BIBDs can be constructed from difference systems in much the same way,
but with the difference that each element in the BIBD occurs occurs with
each other element \(\lambda\) times, not necessarily just once.
Example
A BIBD on \(GF(7)\) can be constructed from the sets
\(\{6,5,3\}\{2,4,1\}\).
\(\{0,6,4\},\{1,0,5\},\{2,1,6\},\{3,2,0\},\{4,3,1\},\{5,4,2\}\) are the
blocks obtained from the left hand set.
\(\{3,5,2\},\{4,6,3\},\{5,0,4\},\{6,1,5\},\{0,2,6\},\{1,3,0\}\) are the
blocks obtained from the right hand set.
Because the two sets are both triples, under cyclic construction the
block design obtained will necessarily have \(k=r=3\).
The left hand set has each non-zero member of \(GF(7)\) occurring exactly
once as a difference between its members. So, taken with its translates
(those blocks obtained from it under cyclic development), this set
should form a BIBD with \(r=3\) and \(\lambda=1\). Similarly the right hand
block forms a BIBD with \(r=3\) and \(\lambda=1\), and the two sets taken
together as difference system therefore generate a BIBD with \(r=6\) and
\(\lambda =2\).
If we add the ideal element \(\infty\) to the left hand set and all its
translates, and 0 to the right hand set (developing it cyclically along
with the other members) then we obtain a new BIBD with \(r=7\) and
\(\lambda = 3\), whose blocks are:
\[\{\infty,6,5,3\},\{\infty,0,6,4\},\{\infty,1,0,5\},\{\infty,2,1,6\},\{\infty,3,2,0\},\{\infty,4,3,1\},\{\infty,5,4,2\}\]
\[\{0,2,4,1\},\{1,3,5,2\},\{2,4,6,3\},\{3,5,0,4\},\{4,6,1,5\},\{5,0,2,6\},\{6,1,3,0\}\]
Which is precisely the BIBD obtained from the Room square at the
beginning of this chapter. If the block design associated with a BRS, or
a CBHR, is obtained by taking the left hand member of the pairs in the
first row as one block and the left hand members in subsequent rows as
the translates, and all right members of pairs as the remaining blocks
of a BIBD, then clearly those two blocks, the left hand and the right
hand, which belong to the starter must form a difference system.
The set of pairs \((x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2),...,(x_{n-1},y_{n-1})\) is a
balanced starter in \(G=GF(2n-1)\) if
the unordered pairs \(\{x_i,y_i\}\) form a starter in \(G\), and
the blocks \(\{x_1,x_2,...,x_{n-1}\}\) and \(\{y_1,y_2,...,y_{n-1}\}\) form a difference system.
A balanced starter is strong if \(x_1+y_1,x_2+y_2,...,x_{n-1}+y_{n-1}\) are all distinct mod\((2n-1)\).
Given a strong balanced starter on \(G=GF(2n-1)\), then a \(CBHR(2n-1)\)
exists.
Proof
Assign the pair \((x_i+g,y_i+g)\) to cell \((g,x_i+y_i+g)\) for all
\(g \in G\). Condition (i) along with the strong-ness of the starter
ensures that every \(g \in G\) occurs in every row and column exactly once
except \(g\) does not occur in row or column \(g\) for all \(g \in G\) [due to
the absence in cell (0,0) of the pair \(\{\infty,0\}\)]. Condition (i)
also ensures that each unordered pair of \(G\) occurs exactly once in the
array, replace the unordered pairs with ordered pairs.
That the block design obtained is balanced follows from condition (ii).
Notice that each of the 2 blocks generates \((n-1)(n-2)\) differences and
these represent each of \(2n-2\) members of \(G \backslash \{0\}\),
\(\lambda\) times. Therefore \(2(n-1)(n-2) = \lambda (2n-2),\)
$ = n-2$.
Given a strong balanced starter on \(G=GF(2n-1)\), then a \(BRS(2n)\)
exists.
Proof
Assign the pair \((x_i+g,y_i+g)\) to cell \((g,x_i+y_i+g)\) for all
\(g \in G\), and (provided \(n\) is even), also assign the pair \((\infty,g)\)
to cell \((g,g)\) for all \(g \in G\).
Again, condition (i) and the strong-ness of the starter ensure that an
ORS based on \(G \cup \{\infty\}\) is obtained. The block design
associated with this array has initial blocks,
\[\{\infty\} \cup \{x_1,x_2,...,x_{n-1}\}\]
\[\{0\} \cup \{y_1,y_2,...,y_{n-1}\}\] Adjoining 0 to
\(\{y_1,y_2,...,y_{n-1}\}\) creates each non-zero member of \(G\) as a
difference once more, either as \(y_i-0\) or \(0-y_i\).
Adjoining \(\infty\) to \(\{x_1,x_2,..,x_{n-1}\}\) creates \(n-1\) pairs
involving \(\infty\) in this block, hence \(\infty\) makes a pair with each
member of \(G\) \(n-1\) times.
So the design is balanced with a concurrence number of \(n-1\).
It is a simple matter to derive the remaining parameters of the BIBD
associated with either array.
| \(v\) | \(b\) | \(r\) | \(k\) | \(\lambda\) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| \(CBHR(2n-1)\) | \(2n-1\) | \(2(2n-1)\) | \(2(n-1)\) | \(n-1\) | \(n-2\) |
| \(CBHR(2n)/BRS(2n)\) | \(2n\) | \(2(2n-1)\) | \(2n-1)\) | \(n\) | \(n-1\) |
Table 7 BIBD parameters for BRS and CBHR
The block design of a balanced Room square is self-complementary. This
means that if a block \(D\) belongs to the design, then its complement
\(\overline{D}\) also appears. If the left hand pairs in row \(x\) form one
block then the right hand pairs in the same row are also a block, and
the two blocks are complementary. Alternatively we can say that, in a
self-complementary BIBD, the complementary design (obtained by replacing
all blocks with their complements) is identical to the design itself.
Schellenberg proved an interesting result regarding self-complementary
BIBDs.
[21] In a self-complementary BIBD with parameters of the form,
\((2n,2(2n-1)t,(2n-1)t,n,(n-1)t)\), every triple of elements is contained
in \(t(n-2)/2\) blocks.
Proof
Suppose \(B\) is a self-complementary BIBD with parameters of the form
above, based on a set of elements \(V\). Denote by \(S_{i...j}\) the set of
blocks which contain \(u\) but not \(v\) or \(w\). Because the design is
self-complementary to each block of this set there corresponds a unique
block which contains \(v\) and \(w\) but not \(u\). The set of these blocks is
\(S_{vw}-S_u\) and clearly: \[|S_u - \{S_v \cup S_w\}| = |S_{vw} - S_u|\]
Now,
\(|S_u-\{S_v \cup S_w\}| = |S_u| - |S_{uv}| -|S_{uw}| + |S_{uvw}|\) and,
\(|S_{vw} - S_u| = |S_{vw}| - |S_{uvw}|\)
\[\therefore |S_u| - |S_{uv}| -|S_{uw}| + |S_{uvw}| = |S_{vw}| - |S_{uvw}|\]
\[2|S_{uvw}| = |S_{vw}| + |S_{uv}| + |S_{uw}| - |S_{U}|\] Because \(B\) is
a \(BIBD\), each pair of elements occur together in \(\lambda = (n-1)t\)
blocks and each element occurs in \(r=(2n-1)t\) blocks. So,
\[|S_{vw}| = |S_{uv}| = |S_{uw}| = (n-1)t\] and \[|S_u| = (2n-1)t\]
Therefore, \[2|S_{uvw}|=3(n-1)t-(2n-1)t=(n-2)t\] and so,
\[|S_{uvw}| = \frac{(n-2)t}{2}\] Since \(u\), \(v\) and \(w\) are arbitrary
this implies that each triple occurs in \((n-2)t/2\) blocks. \(\square\)
The implication of this result for balanced Room squares is that,
because \(t=1\) for a \(BRS\)[^12] and we require the LHS of this expression
to be an integer, \(n\) is necessarily even. So writing \(n=2m\), we know
the order of a \(BRS\) is always of the form \(4m\).
A \(BRS(n)\) can only exist for \(n \equiv 0\) mod 4.
We now present Hwang’s starter-adder construction for balanced Room
squares.
[14] There exists a \(BRS\) of order \(q+1\), where $q=p^r $ 3(mod 4)
is a prime power strictly greater than 3.
Proof
We show that the pairs
\[X = \left \{(x^{2i+1},x^{2i}): 0 \leq i \leq \frac{q-3}{2} \right \}\]
form a balanced starter, where \(x\) is a primitive element in \(GF(q)\),
and the set
\[A(X) = \left \{-x^{2i}(1+x): 0 \leq i \leq \frac{q-3}{2} \right \}\]
is a corresponding adder.
Looking back at Theorem 2.4(?), we have already shown that the unordered
pairs
\[\left \{\{x^{2i},x^{2i+1}\}: 0 \leq i \leq \frac{q-3}{2} \right \}\]
are those of a starter with adder \(A(X)\). So it remains to show that the
starter is balanced which involves proving that the two blocks
\[B_1 = \{0,x,x^3,...,x^{q-2}\} \hspace{0.5cm} \mathrm{and} \hspace{0.5cm} B_2 = \{\infty,x^0,x^2,...,x^{q-3}\}\]
generate a \(BIBD\). This result is due to R.C. Bose and makes use of the
properties of the squares and non-squares of \(GF(q)\) where \(q\) is an odd
prime.
Let \(R\) and \(N\) denote the sets of non-zero square and non-squares in
\(GF(q)\), respectively. \[R=\{x^2,x^4,...,x^{q-1}\}\]
\[N=\{x^1,x^3,...,x^{q-2}\}\] These sets both contain precisely
\(\frac{1}{2}(q-1)\) elements.
So, \[B_1 = \{0\} \cup N,\] and because \(x^{q-1} = 1 = x^0\),
\[B_2 = \{\infty\} \cup R\] Also, if \(a\) is square then \(-a\) is a
non-square[^13], which implies that \(R=-N\).
To show that the blocks with their translates form a \(BIBD\) it is
necessary to show that the differences between members of \(B_1\) and \(R\)
generate all the non-zero members of \(GF(q)\) some number of times, then
by adjoining the element \(\infty\) to \(R\) and its translates will
generate a \(BIBD\).
Firstly, suppose that 1, which belongs to \(R\), can be expressed as a
difference between members of \(R\) in a certain number of different ways,
\[1 = x^{2a_1}-x^{2b_1}=...x^{2a_r}-x^{2b_r}\] Were this true, any
member of \(R\) could be written as a difference in the same number of
ways.
Multiply through by any \(x^{2s} \in R\).
\[x^{2s} = x^{2(a_1+s)}-x^{2(b_1+s)}=...=x^{2(a_r+s)}-x^{2(b_r+s)}\] But
now suppose that any element of \(R\) can be expressed as a difference
between members of \(R\) in a certain number of ways, i.e. assume this
second expression holds. Then by dividing through by \(x^{2s}\), we
recover the first expression and hence for each representation of 1
there is a corresponding representation of \(x^{2s}\), and vice versa. So
there are an equal number of representations of every member of \(R\) as a
difference of members of \(R\). The remaining non-zero members of \(GF(q)\),
are all those \(q \notin R\) where \(-q \in R\), but each representation of
\(-r\) gives a corresponding representation of \(r\): \[-r=x^{2a}-x^{2b}\]
\[r = x^{2b} - x^{2a}\] So every element of \(-r\) has the same number of
representations as a difference between members of \(R\) as \(R\) does.
We know that \(R\) has \(\frac{1}{2}(q-1)\) elements, therefore there are
\(\frac{1}{2}(q-1) \cdot \frac{1}{2} (q-3) = \frac{1}{4}(q-1)(q-3)\)
differences between those elements, and if each of these differences
generates each of the \(q-1\) non-zero members of \(GF(q)\), \(\lambda\) times
then: \[\lambda(q-1)=\frac{1}{4}(q-1)(q-3)\]
\[\lambda=\frac{1}{4}(q-3)\] Also, because \(N=-R\), we can say that all
the non-zero members of \(GF(q)\) arise as differences between members of
\(N\). Further, \(B_1\) also gives the differences
\(0-n,n-0 \hspace{0.5cm} n\in N\), which are all the non-zero members of
\(GF(q)\), once again. So in total every non-zero member of \(GF(q)\) occurs
as a difference between elements of \(B_1\) and \(R\),
\(2 \cdot \frac{1}{4} (q-3) + 1 = \frac{1}{2} (q-1)\) times.
Because \(R\) and its translates each contain $ (q-1)$
elements, each member of \(GF(q)\) occurs $ (q-1)$ times in all
those blocks. Therefore, adjoining \(\infty\) to each block generates
blocks of size $ (q-1)$, with \(\infty\) making a pair with
each member of \(GF(q)\), $ (q-1)$ times.
So we can say that \(B_1\), \(B_2\) and their translates for a
\(BIBD(q+1,\frac{1}{2}(q+1), \frac{1}{2}(q-1))\).
Therefore Hwang’s starter is balanced. \(\square\)
The \(BRS\) in Figure 27 was obtained from Hwang’s starter, hence its
block design was a \(BIBD\).
Example 5.3.1
A balanced starter in \(GF(19)\) is:
\[X = \{(2,1),(8,4),(13,16),(14,7),(18,9),(15,17),(3,11),(12,6),(10,5)\}\]
Which has a corresponding adder: \[A(X) = \{16,7,9,17,11,6,5,1,4\}\] So
the following row is an appropriate choice for a \(BRS(20)\):
\(\infty,0\) - 14,7 2,1 15,7 - - - 18,9 - 13,16 - 8,4 - 3,11 10,5 - - 12,6 ———— — —— —– —— — — — —— — ——- — —– — —— —— — — ——

Like everyone else, I am totally stoked about the new Nokia 770. The hardware looks sweet, but the fact that it is coupled with a sane open development platform just makes it ridiculously attractive. Especially considering it’s based on a platform we all know relatively well :)
The screenshots look really great. One thing I wonder about, though, is how well the included apps deal with an unreliable network. I mean, if I stroll out of range from my wifi, will all kinds of errors and stuff show up, or will it deal gracefully? The development site mentions some things about getting events like “low battery” over dbus. Hopefully “network is down” is the same kind of thing, and apps can just go into offline mode or whatever.
It would be really fabulous to get mono running on this thing. I wonder if something like a “compact edition” of it would be needed.
