AppRun is a 3K library for building applications using the elm architecture and the event pubsub pattern and components.
Like the elm architecture, there are three parts in the AppRun application architecture.
The 15 lines of code below is a simple counter application demonstrates the architecture using AppRun.
const state = 0;
const view = state => `

${state}

<button onclick='app.run("-1")'>-1</button>
<button onclick='app.run("+1")'>+1</button>

`;
};
const update = {
'+1': state => state + 1,
'-1': state => state - 1
};
app.start('my-app', state, view, update);
You can try the counter example online: Simple Counter.
The model can be any data structure, a number, an array, or an object that reflects the state of the application. In the counter example, it is a number.
const state = 0;
The view generates HTML based on the state. AppRun parses the HTML string into virtual dom. It then calculates the differences against the web page element and renders the changes.
const view = state => `

${state}

<button onclick='app.run("-1")'>-1</button>
<button onclick='app.run("+1")'>+1</button>

`;
};
Update is a collection of named event handlers, or a dictionary of event handlers. Each event handler creates a new state from the current state.
const update = {
'+1': state => state + 1,
'-1': state => state - 1
}
AppRun registers the event handlers defined in the Update to the event pubsub system. We can trigger these event handlers using the event name. Once we trigger the events, AppRun manages a event cycle that calls the event handlers, then calls the view function, and finally renders the web page:
AppRun Events => (current state) => Update => (new state) => View => (HTML/Virtual DOM) => Web Page
At the core, AppRun has an event pubsub system, a state manage system, and a virtual DOM rendering system.
At the core, AppRun is an event publication and subscription system, which is also known as event emitter. It is a commonly used pattern in JavaScript programming.
AppRun has two functions to facilitate the event pubsub pattern.
E.g., Module A subscribes to an event print:
import app from 'apprun';
export () => app.on('print', e => console.log(e));
Module B publishes the event print:
import app from 'apprun';
export () => app.run('print', {});
Main Module:
import a from './A';
import b from './B';
a();
b();
Module A and Module B only have to know the event system, not each other, so they are only dependent on the event system. Therefore modules are decoupled. Therefore it is easier to modify, extend and swap modules.
In AppRun applications, there is no dependencies between the View and event handlers. It makes the AppRun applications easier to develop, test and maintain.
The web page programming is event-driven. Connecting web events to AppRun events, you can trigger event handlers from user input, click, navigation, etc.
E.g. call app.run in HTML markup directly:
<button id="inc" onclick="app.run('+1')">+1</button>
Or in JavaScript:
document.getElementById('inc').addEventListener('click',
() => app.run('+1'));
Or with JSX:
<button onclick={()=>app.run("+1")}>+1</button>
Or even with jQuery:
$('#inc').on('click', ()=>app.run('+1'));
While developing AppRun applications, we convert DOM events such as timer, user input, and button click events using the web event handlers for AppRun events. Therefore, the following steps take place:
The AppRun architecture supports asynchronous operations in the AppRun event handlers. We only need to add the async keyword in front of the event handler and call the functions to return a Promise object with the await keyword.
import app from 'apprun';
const get = async (url) => { };
const state = {};
const view = (state) =>
{state}
;
const update = {
'#': async (state) => {
try {
const data = await get('https://...');
return { ...state, data }
} catch (err) {
return { ...state, err }
}
}
};
app.start('my-app', state, view, update);
During the event cycle, AppRun manages application states. It passes current state into the event handlers. It takes the new state from the event handlers and passes into the view function. Therefore it can maintain the history of all states, which enables the time travel / undo-redo feature.
In leverage the time travel / undo-redo feature, the event handlers must make sure current state immutable and always create a new state.
See the multiple counter example that has undo-redo online: Multiple counters
AppRun uses virtual DOM technology. The virtual DOM (VDOM) is the data representing a DOM structure. AppRun compares the VDOM with the real DOM and updates only the changed elements and element properties.
In the simple counter example above, the View creates HTML string out of the state. AppRun parses the HTML string into VDOM. Although HTML string is easy to understand and useful for trying out ideas, it takes time to parse it into virtual dom at run time, which may cause performance issue. It also has some problems that have been documented by the Facebook React team: Why not template literals.
We recommend to use JSX. The JSX compiler compiles the JSX into functions at compile time. The View function creates virtual dom in runtime directly without parsing HTML, which gives better performance. To compile the JSX, we also recommend using TypeScript and webpack. See CLI section below.
A component is a technique to decompose the large system into smaller, manageable, and reusable pieces. Usually, a component is an autonomous and reusable module that encapsulates a set of data and functions. A component is the basic building block in other popular frameworks and libraries such as Angular, React, and Vue. Elm does not have components. Elm has the concern that the relationship and communication between components might prevent or cause difficulties to ensure that everything is done in the functional programming style.
AppRun solves the component relationship and communication problem by using event pubsub. AppRun components are decoupled and isolated modules. Elm’s concern is not an issue in AppRun. In AppRun applications, the component is a mini-application and has a component-scoped AppRun architecture, which includes the three architecture parts discussed previously: state, view, and update. Components communicate with each other through the events.
A component in AppRun is a mini elm architecture, which means inside a component, there are model, view, and update. Because components are classes, it is straightforward to use them in code. We first create an object of the component.
import app, {Component} from 'apprun';
export default class extends Component {
state = '';
view = state =>
;
update = {};
}
Then we mount the component instance to an element.
import Counter from './Counter';
const element = document.getElementById('my-app');
new Counter().mount(element);
The component is mounted to the web page element or element ID. When the component is mounted to an element ID, it retrieves the element by using the document. getElementID function at the time it needs to render the element. It will not render the element if it cannot find it. The lazy components are useful for single-page applications (SPAs), where we can mount multiple components to a single element. The components are hidden until the events that wake them up and display them.
A useful convention in JSX is that when the JSX tag name is capitalized, it creates components. We can use the capitalized JSX tag to create AppRun Components in JSX.
class Child extends Component {
state = {}
view = state =>

update = {}
}
class Parent extends Component {
state = {}
view = state =>

<Child />

update = {}
}
We can also use the capitalized JSX tag to call JavaScript functions with capitalized the function names. The functions are also known as the Pure Function Component.
const Counter = ({num, idx}) => (

{num}

<button onclick={() => app.run("-1", idx)}>-1</button>
<button onclick={() => app.run("+1", idx)}>+1</button>
<button onclick={() => app.run("remove-counter", idx)}>x</button>

);
const CounterList = ({counters}) => counters.map((num, idx) =>
<Counter num={num} idx={idx} />
);
const view = state => {
return (

<button onclick={() => app.run("add-counter")}>add counter</button>
<button onclick={() => app.run("remove-counter", state.length-1)} disabled={state.length <= 0}>remove counter</button>

<CounterList counters={state} />

);
};
AppRun has included two decorators to create the event handlers in the component. @event and @on. @event is for class functions. @on is for class properties.
class TestComponent extends Component {
view = state => state
// function decorator
@event('hi, #hi')
f2(state, val) {
return val;
}
// property decorator
@on('hi2, #hi2')
f2 = (state, val) => val
}
Because we can connect the DOM events to AppRun Event, handling routing becomes much easier. AppRun detects the hash changes in URL (by listening to the window's onpopstate event) and triggers the AppRun events with matching the hash. E.g., when URL in the browser address bar becomes http://..../#Counter, it triggers the #Couter event.
Using the events, each component defines its route events. It can avoid much code for registering and matching routes like in the other frameworks and libraries.
AppRun includes a cli. To install AppRun CLI:
npm install apprun -g
AppRun CLI can:
Let's initialize a SPA project.
apprun -i --spa
The apprun -i command installs apprun, webpack, webpack-dev-server and typescript. It also generates files: tsconfig.json, webpack.config.js, index.html and main.tsx.
The apprun --spa command generates files: index.html, main.tsx and three components: Home, About and Contact.
After the command finishes execution, you can start the application and then navigate to https://localhost:8080 in a browser.
npm start
AppRun itself is lightweight. It is about 3K gzipped. More important is that applications built with AppRun have less line of code, smaller js file, and better performance. See a comparison from A Real-World Comparison of Front-End Frameworks with Benchmarks.
AppRun has also joined the js-framework-benchmark project. You can see its performance results compared to other frameworks and libraries.
For more details, please refer to the AppRun book published by Apress.
AppRun makes your applications clean, precious, declarative and has no ceremony. Please give it a try and send pull requests.

-- SuperLU routine (version 5.0) --
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
November, 2010
August, 2011
This example shows that ILU is computed from the equilibrated matrix,
but the preconditioned GMRES is applied to the original system.
The driver routine ZGSISX is called twice to perform factorization
and apply preconditioner separately.
Note that ZGSISX performs the following factorization:
Pr*Dr*A*Dc*Pc^T ~= LU
with Pr being obtained from MC64 statically then partial pivoting
dynamically. On return, A is overwritten as A1 = Dr*A*Dc.
We need to save a copy of the original matrix A, then solve
the original system, A*x = B, using FGMRES.
Each GMRES step requires requires 2 procedures:
1) Apply preconditioner M^{-1} = Dc*Pc^T*U^{-1}*L^{-1}*Pr*Dr
2) Matrix-vector multiplication: w = A*v

This site is an upgrade and a fork of the excellent RiotGear components. However, they are Blaze CSS v1.0 compatible. This is a fork of the orginal page and code, updated for Blaze CSS v2. If your looking for the original RiotGear please head over here
Note! We're still working on this site, If you find any issues with the web site please let us know here
RiotGear was built to help. Help you improve your app development speed. If we've built it already why reinvent the wheel? The components should have all the functionality the majority of people need.
In just a few lines of code you could have an off-canvas slide in side-menu, a set of tabs, a bunch of nice toggles and lots of others. Plus the list of components is increasing all the time.
Each component relies on Blaze CSS an open source modular CSS framework. Each component in RiotGear and Blaze is modular so you don't need the whole of either framework to get started.
The people behind RiotGear also built Blaze so you know the two work well together, and if you want help you'll get our world class help with either framework!
We have a really cool state based router. It is totally decoupled from tags so you can interact with it outside of Riot tag code.
RiotGear and the Router are separate so you can use the router in your existing Riot apps without installing RiotGear.
Tags can reference the router and gain access to it meaning more than one tag can be affected by more than one state and one state can affect more than one tag.
You can even add and remove states at any point in time making code organisation really flexible.
If you have an idea for a new component or would like to make a suggestion:
Props! Maximum respect and kudos to the orginal RiotGear team for creating such a great tool.
Like any good open source project this one started with an itch to scratch, we really liked the Blaze CSS 2 features, however, the original RiotGear team were not updating the library for some reason, so we pitched in and did the converstion. Plus it was a great way to learn RiotJS as well.
Our plans for the future are ambitious, not only do we want to target complete Blaze CSS functionality, we plan to make this a plugable UI library for Materialize and Bootstrap. RiotJS makes this at least feasible. Let's see how far we get. Your support is welcome, do join the project if our plan excites you too.
Happy coding!

It was believed for many years that the adult brain was essentially fixed, that 'what you had was what you got’ and there was no changing it. As well as this belief, many people are under the illusion that they are not ’smart’ or intelligent enough to pursue an area of interest. Due to this people will avoid altogether or not put their all into learning a new skill or in the pursuit of academics.
The study of the brain over the last 20 years and the discovery of Neuroplasticity has proven this belief to be a fallacy. Neuroplasticity is the the process by which your brain changes depending on what has happened to it. This relates to memory, learning, trauma and biomechanics. Our brains are essentially plastic that is constantly being reshaped through our daily experiences.
As training and exercise is essential for athletes to develop muscle memory and muscle mass.  It has even been proven that mental practice has the same effects on the brain, effects the same pathways in the brain, as physical practise does. This is an example of neuroplasticity at work. Imagining yourself doing a task, helps to build stronger pathways, to cement that skill or memory firmly in the brain.
People who believe that their talents /skills can be developed, through hard work, good strategies and working with others, have a growth mindset. How you view yourself can determine everything. If you believe your qualities are unchangeable - the fixed mindset- you will want to prove yourself correct over and over instead of learning form your mistakes.  Conversely those with a growth mindset is believe that these inherent qualities - intelligence, whether you are a good artist, athlete - can be cultivated/developed through hard work, perseverance and are motivated to succeed.

| One Step of EM algorithm {pmclust} | R Documentation |
One EM step only for model-based clustering of finite mixture Gaussian
models with unstructured dispersions.
This is a core function of em.step
.
em.onestep.dmat
is a ddmatrix
version of em.onestep
.
em.onestep(PARAM) em.onestep.dmat(PARAM)
PARAM |
an original set of parameters generated
by |
A global variable called X.spmd
should exist in the
.pmclustEnv
environment, usually the working environment. The X.spmd
is the data matrix to be clustered, and this matrix has a dimension
N.spmd
by p
.
The PARAM
will be a local variable for the current iteration inside
em.onestep
,
and this variable is a list containing all parameters related to models.
This function also updates in the parameters by the EM algorithm, and
return a new PARAM
for the next iteration.
The details of list elements are initially
generated by set.global
.
This function is one EM step. The global variables will be updated and
a new PARAM
will be returned.

When you’re working within the freelance logo design field you’ll no-doubt come across a wide variety of people. All the way from awesome and inspirational to demotivating and leaching. I’m glad I can say that I meet more amazing people than I meet… non-amazing people!
One of the first things you’ll learn when taking an interest in graphic design is that having a portfolio is important. You realise that the portfolio of work is the “make or break” with potential clients - not your qualifications. That’s why it’s vital to spend time making it the best you can. No one likes to think of the creative industry as competitive, but in reality your business is a business, and you need work. If you’re not spending proper time on creating your portfolio you’re never going to see the results that you’re wanting to see in the future.
So no matter where you are on your journey, whether you’re a professional or someone who’s just starting out in the freelance industry; making sure that your client has the right mindset is your responsibility. Not his. When you both have clear direction and understanding of the project, who and what it’s for, then you’re paving your own way to success. It gives your propositions leverage when the client doesn’t understand. Now the client has to have a lot of trust in you and your understanding of your work.

Man jailed for killing wolf sister
BBC | Submitted by: JON BLAST
"A former teacher who used knives and a spade to kill his sister has been jailed for life.  Days later he attacked his sibling at their home before telling ambulance staff he had put down a wolf." He looks a bit blue tinged, almost the color of death.

Former mayor charged with triple murder
Richmond Times-Dispatch | Submitted by: Drillcop
"A former mayor of the Southwest Virginia town of Pocahontas faces three charges of capital murder and stands accused of ordering a family killed in order to protect his drug trade...The bodies of Davis and his wife, Una Mae, both 32, and her 14-year-old son, Robert Hopewell Jr., were found at their home April 16, 1989. All three had been shot twice with a 12-gauge shotgun. Davis was found on the road in front of his house. His wife was found in the yard. The boy was found in a closet, where he had apparently tried to hide."

Apathy frustrates reporter's efforts to fill space
Express-Times | Submitted by: Geräuchertes
"Since 9-11, you sort of rate your disasters," says one randomly questioned passerby in this montage of "man on the street" interviews by a newspaper determined to cover the Columbia incident, despite the lack of actual information - and the public's lack of interest. "Nobody was even talking about it. There was a rumor that Eminem died, that was the big thing today. We found out it wasn't true." The article then proceeds to explain that "Eminem is the edgy rap artist popular among young people."

Take a holiday in scenic Baghdad!
The Age | Submitted by: Xiao Li
"The first thing you see as you cross into Iraq is Saddam Hussein, smiling and striding purposefully towards you. The entire party suddenly rises as one, terrified. How can he possibly be here in person to greet us? But then you see another Saddam standing next to him, and another, and then you realise that Saddam appears to be everywhere. It's a classic Middle East phenomenon: the men carefully craft themselves to look uncannily like the leader."

The girl's intestines burst into her vagina
eMedia Malaysia | Submitted by: f3lch3r
"Devanandan said the doctor's testimony revealed that the child had to be given blood transfusion and undergo emergency surgery a result of internal vaginal tears which resulted in her intestines dislodged into the vagina area... He also told the court that both accused raped the child to satisfy their animal lust and should be given harsh sentences so they would repent. He said any jail term meted out should be consecutive and not concurrent."

As much freedom as the State will allow...
Spiked | Submitted by: Tobermory
Orwell would have a field day: "This trend has important implications for free speech. The arguments for new privacy rights rest on the notion that free expression and privacy rights need to be 'balanced' against each other. This effectively means that there is no such thing as a right to free speech - or, indeed, a right to privacy. The right to privacy has been redefined as a state protection from hurtful public discussion; and the right to free speech has become qualified by restricting speech that may cause offence. The decision about what can and cannot be said in the public realm about people's private lives is an arbitrary one, taken by a judge."

Satanic panic in Russia
The Scotsman | Submitted by: Ann Onymous
"When police found her body, Elizaveta Kuzmina was lying with her throat slit on the floor of her flat in western Moscow. Chillingly, on the door, someone had written in red chalk: "My matrix has found me." Friends said Ms Kuzmina, 19, the daughter of a popular Russian rock singer, Vladimir Kuzmin, had been dabbling with the occult."

Contact me via GitHub


The character is using a blade as a brake or an anchor to stop his or her movement. This is done by ramming the blade into a wall or the floor, depending on direction of the character's movement.
Bonus points if the movement is not stopped abruptly and long sparkly "skid marks" occur. The weapon may carve a long gash in the surface until its wielder comes to a halt.
A variation is when the character slows his fall by stabbing his blade into a tall banner (or, on a sailing ship, the sail). The "stab the sail" version shows up in a bunch of old pirate movies and was busted by the MythBusters.
If the weapon is later used as a perch, to swing back up into battle, or to climb off of, it's a Stepping-Stone Sword. Not to be confused with Break Blade, or with literally breaking a sword.
Examples:
- Deunan does this with a military knife in some Appleseed incarnation to prevent herself from sliding down a very high dome.
- Chane Laforet of Baccano! uses a pair of daggers to stop her fall off of a moving train.
- Bleach loves this trope. A few times characters have done a blade break IN MID-AIR. (Justified, since Soul Reapers and Hollows are spirits who usually run on air.)
- Kenpachi stabs his zanpakutou into a wall once after Ichigo knocks him back.
- Ichigo does a long one in his fight with Ulquiorra just after the latter unleashes his Resurreccion, stabbing the roof they're fighting on while he repairs his mask. It doesn't seem to slow him down, though, and he eventually just pulls his sword back out of the roof to block the next attack.
- Lancer of Fate/Stay Night stops himself from dying again in Carnival Phantasm by assisting his dragster brake with stabbing the floor of the car and the ground using Gae Bolg. He still crashes, but survives this time around.
- In The Castle of Cagliostro, the Count uses his sword to stab the rocks, saving his butt after falling off the Clock Tower's hands.
- A horizontal version in the anime adaptation of Claymore: Clare has gained Super Speed but can't control it, so she slows herself down by stabbing the ground.
- Happens in Highlander: The Search for Vengeance where the hero gets thrown off a skyscraper. Doesn't work, mind you, and he still goes plummeting to his would-be-death-if-he-wasn't-an-immortal.
- Inuyasha: When Inuyasha first encounters the Wind Tunnel, he rams Tessaiga into the ground to prevent himself from being sucked into it. In one of many amusing examples of just how alike the two brothers really are, when Sesshoumaru first experiences the power of the Wind Tunnel, he reacts in exactly the same way (and since he's holding Tessaiga at the time, he even uses the same sword).
- In Kill la Kill,
- When Ryuko Matoi falls through a trapdoor, she tries to slow her fall by sticking her blade into the wall, but it doesn't work and she hits the bottom hard anyway.
- When the stairs Ryuko and Mako are climbing suddenly flatten out, Ryuko grabs Mako with one arm and sticks her blade into the floor. It works.
- Sanageyama somehow manages this with a bamboo sword and a concrete wall.
- Asuna of Mahou Sensei Negima! does this after the wings Haruna gave her expire a tad earlier than she expected. Note that her sword is big enough that she can simply stand on the blade rather than just hang from the hilt.
- Naruto: Sasuke does this a lot with his katana. Other characters do it with kunai, as well.
- Subverted when Zoro does this is the 7th One Piece movie after being dropped off a tower. Turns out his sword is so sharp it cuts straight through the tower and barely slows him down!
- Guts of Berserk does this with a dagger during the Eclipse when he and Griffith are lifted up by a giant hand made of human faces, right before Griffith accepts the call to sacrifice and becomes Femto.
- Not exactly a weapon, but Elie in Rave Master sticks her arm in the ground after being used as a Fastball Special by a bad guy so as to avoid hitting any of her friends. Of course, she breaks her arm, but it works.
- In Re:Zero, Subaru jabs a sword into a cliff face to arrest his fall. However, even though it drops his momentum to non-lethal levels, Reality Ensues when the blade breaks, causing him to free fall the last few feet.
- In Riding Bean, Bean's Cool Car has this type of assisted braking in the wheels.
- Kanbei does this with his katana early in Samurai 7.
- In episode 10 of Sands of Destruction Morte uses her sword as one when she and the rest of the World Destruction Committee are forced over the railings of a tower while fleeing robots.
- In Shakugan no Shana, Yuji falls through a ragged hole in the floor on top of a building. Shana dives after him, grabs his hand, and halts their fall by thrusting her blade into a steel girder on the way down.
- Maka, from Soul Eater, loves to do this with Soul. She once tries to do it to prevent the Big Bad escaping from an underground prison. The Absurdly Sharp Blade of Soul's must have gotten pretty battered being dragged through the earth like that.
- Kamina did this in the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann OVA.
- Damien Wayne's origin story in the New 52's Batman and Robin #0 shows him blade-braking a skydive (after cutting his own chute) with two katanas in opposite walls of an icy crevasse. He's not even a teenager yet.
- In Hawkeye vs. Deadpool #2, Hawkeye has temporary super-strength and gets knocked off the edge of the building. He slows his path by jamming two arrows into the wall and sliding down; gouging furrows in the wall till he stops.
- Runaways used a variant, in that Old Lace used her claws to slow Chase's fall. Amazingly, Molly predicted this.
- Wolverine occasionally does this with his claws as well.
- Ditto for X-23.
- After taking inspiration from TV, Nav uses this in desperation in Diaries of a Madman, to stop himself from falling down a mine shaft. He's quite surprised when it works.
- Guardians, Wizards, and Kung-Fu Fighters: Raythor stops his fall in the Abyss of Shadows by striking the wall with his sword, slowing his descent long enough for him to take a hold of the wall before the sword breaks.
- In Neither a Bird nor a Plane, it's Deku!, Katana does this by stabbing her swords into the ceiling when thrown skyward by Mei's rampaging robot.
- The New Adventures of Invader Zim: During one of the VR games they play in Episode 18, Iggins does this to avoid Gaz dropping him into a pit of lava.
- Aladdin and the King of Thieves: Aladdin slows a fall down a cliff face using his father's knife. His opponent gives chase using Wolverine Claws.
- Prince Charming does the "stab the sail" variant in Disney's Cinderella III: A Twist in Time.
- Used by Cloud in the climactic battle of Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children.
- Ice Age: Diego tries to use his claws to stop his momentum during the ice slide scene. It doesn't work.
- Errol Flynn does the "stab the sail" version in Against All Flags (in a clear homage to Douglas Fairbanks in The Black Pirate). Brian Hawke is cornered in the rigging of the Scorpion, with pirates coming from three directions. He walks out across the yardarm and stabs his rapier into the sail, and then rides it down to the deck. This was apparently the only stunt in the film Flynn did not do himself.
- Alita: Battle Angel: As Alita and Hugo are falling from the cable leading to Zalem, Alita grabs Hugo and slows their fall by wedging the Damascus Blade into the side of the giant cable.
- Batman uses his gauntlets for this effect while rescuing Ducard in Batman Begins.
- The "stab the sail" technique originated in the 1926 silent movie The Black Pirate starring Douglas Fairbanks Sr.
- This scene is referenced in The Goonies, when Sloth comes sliding down the sail in the same way.
- In Last Action Hero, The Reaper does the "stab the sail" with his scythe at the movie premiere.
- Marvel Cinematic Universe:
- In Captain America: Civil War, Black Panther uses his claws to slide down the side of a building during a chase.
- Thor: Ragnarok:
- When Thor gets thrown around by Hulk in the arena, he slams one of his swords into the ground to cease his momentum.
- During the escape from Sakaar, Valkyrie jumps from spaceship to spaceship to incapacitate them and plants her sword in one of them to prevent falling off.
- In Pacific Rim, a damaged Gipsy Danger plants its sword in the ground during the Final Battle to avoid being knocked over by the shockwave of Striker Eureka's nuke detonating.
- Papy fait de la résistance: At the climax, SuperRésistant makes his entrance down a swastika banner by stabbing it with a dagger. He flubs the landing, though.
- In The Pirate Movie, a parody of The Pirates of Penzance, at the end of "The Pirate King" song, the Captain uses his dagger to slide down the main sail, hits the deck, turns and says to Ruth, the nurse, "Sew that up, love!" Her expression shows that this wasn't the first time it's happened.
- Will Turner uses this in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest when the Kraken attacks.
- Star Wars: Jango Fett has retractable blades in his gauntlets, apparently for exactly this purpose (they're too short and oddly-shaped to be much good for anything else).
- Transformers: Dark of the Moon has Sentinel Prime do something like this to slow his descent down the side of a building.
- X-Men Film Series
- X-Men: Wolverine averts a fall off the Statue of Liberty by hooking one of the points of the statue's crown, then spinning around it to land on top. The point falls off only after he's done.
- X-Men Origins: Wolverine has the title hero do this to make a hard turn on a motorcycle. Interestingly, it's one of the rare times his claws don't just go clean through.
- X-Men: Apocalypse: Psylocke narrowly survives what would have been a fatal fall by using her energy sword to slide down a building. It still takes her out of the fight, though, allowing Mystique to impersonate her.
- In The Last Command, the third in Timothy Zahn's The Thrawn Trilogy, Luke Skywalker pulls a trick like this with his lightsaber. Specifically, he uses the saber only to cut a groove in the wall, grips it with his other hand (which he's wrapped in layers to for protection), and cuts a curved path to control his speed.
- In Marlfox, a boat is stopped from going over a waterfall when one of the heroes wedges the Sword of Martin in a crack in a rock.
- In Scarecreow, Mother uses a knife in this fashion to stop herself from sliding off a mahogany boardroom table that's hanging out a window on the 39th floor of Canary Wharf whilst fighting a bounty hunter, with a helicopter hovering a few metres directly underneath. It's that kind of book.
- Doctor Who: In "Robot of Sherwood", Robin Hood makes his Big Damn Heroes arrival at the Sheriff's castle by sticking his knife into a tapestry and sliding down to the ground.
- In Kamen Rider OOO, Eiji henshins midfall from a skyscraper and proceeds to embed his Tora Claws in the building to slow his fall.
- MacGyver once got down from a catwalk by sticking his pocket knife through his wallet (as a guard) and then that through a curtain.
- MythBusters tested the pirate movie version of this, where one uses a blade to slide down a sail. Myth busted. Specifically, too sharp a knife cuts too well to slow a person down, and no matter how sharp the knife was, hitting the seams in the sail caused the knife to jump out of the sail no matter how prepared the holder was. Also, as one of the historians pointed out, the guy who spent weeks making the sail would murder you when he found out.
- In Power Rangers Lost Galaxy, Mike is presumed to have perished in an early episode by plummeting into a ravine. It is eventually shown via flashback that the Magna Defender - who was already down there - rescued him this way, although it was only to steal his physical body.
- Stabbing the sail (referred to in-game as "Ride the Sail") is one of the tricks that the Rogers swordsman school teaches in 7th Sea.
- Dungeons & Dragons: Monks are implied to do this with their fists (said fists are strong enough to pierce an iron golem's body at that point, though) in their ability to stop any fall with a wall at level 20 (20 being the normal level cap). The first edition said "as long as they are close enough to touch", implying they would grab the wall to slow their fall to non-lethal speeds. The cheapest infinite use magic items in core does this without the need for the wall.
- The Abyss Watchers from Dark Souls III weaponize this for increasing their maneuverability with their BFS, it also resembles the movement of a wolf hunting its preys, just like their founder, Artorias.
- All Prince of Persia games since Warrior Within have the Prince doing this with a wall hanging.
- Lady does this with a bayonet in Devil May Cry 3.  Dante's done it at least once, but he usually doesn't have to thanks to his inherent gravity-defying skills.
- In Final Fantasy XIII, Lightning does this to regain her balance after a Behemoth knocks her away, and naturally since she's a badass, it works.
- In GunZ, this is an available move for swords and daggers. It's one of the most basic ways to scale a wall or save yourself from falling into a Bottomless Pit if you haven't mastered a more advanced technique.
- Terra from Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep attempts to do this with his Keyblade in the secret Final Mix II video as well as in-game, and ends up taking a section of the cliff down. A whole spinning tornado of Keyblades slamming into him kind of knocks him completely off the cliff though.
- Featured in a Lineage 2 trailer-movie where you don't just get the screeching, sparking skid-gash in the rock face, - it's also used to leap back up for an attack. Extra points for dual-wielded Absurdly Sharp Blades.
- Kenshi does this in Mortal Kombat X after being knocked out of a military personnel carrier in the first chapter. Lacking other options, he does this against the very aircraft he's hanging on for dear life.
- Hotsuma in Shinobi (2002) doesn't feel like using a parachute to leap off a helicopter, and instead uses his sword like this on a skyscraper to get to ground level.
- All playable characters can do this in Sonic and the Black Knight, but they can also climb back up the wall and go left and right. Sonic jumps up while his sword's in the wall, then pulls it out and thrusts it back in, Lancelot does the same, Gawain alternates stabbing the wall with his dual swords and Percival just runs.
- Subverted in Tales of Hearts when Shing tries to use his sword to avoid being sucked into the maw of a monster. He then stabs through his foot, which works better.
- In Tales of Monkey Island: Rise of the Pirate God, Guybrush uses his Hook Hand to cut through a ship's sails, while sliding down them.
- Ittosai saves Sayori from the fall off the watchtower by jamming his nodachi into the wall, essentially destroying both sword and wall, in his Good Ending in Yo-Jin-Bo.
- Used by the Meta in Red vs. Blue: Revelation to make his way back up to the top of an ice sheet after the portion he was standing on got blown apart and started falling into the abyss below. To elaborate: the Meta saw his gun falling in the open air along with him, lunged off the falling ice block to grab the weapon, and stabbed the pointy end into the main ice sheet before falling again. Grif later uses a similar technique (though unseen) when the Meta pulls him over the edge in a Taking You with Me maneuver.
- RWBY:
- Ruby tends to stab her scythe into the ground to stop herself, since her gun's recoil is powerful enough to send her flying.
- Ren uses the blades from his weapon to stop a fall by spiraling down a tree trunk.
- In his Volume 3 fight with Winter, Qrow anchors his BFS to mitigate being pushed back several feet away by her attacks, wrecking a fair part of the courtyard.
- 8-Bit Theater: Fighter uses this trope to prevent the Light Warriors from dying after a long fall. How? He blocked the ground with his sword. Don't ask him how he did it; somehow it will make sense.
- Done after a Literal Cliffhanger in The Dreamland Chronicles, leaving a 50-some-odd-foot gash in the stone wall of the Big Bad's castle.
- When Divine Sea Fish Jigena from Tower of God flips on its back, Ja Wangnan has to ram his Needle into its flesh to not fall off.
- Avatar: The Last Airbender
- Azula stabs her hairpin into the side of a cliff to arrest her fall in "The Southern Raiders"
- Sokka tries to do this too using his sword, but this demonstrates why an Absurdly Sharp Blade should not be used for such.
- Piandao does this when he and Master Pakku come Back for the Finale, using his sword to maneuver on a wave of ice Pakku creates while freeing Ba Sing Se.
- Kevin does this on a collapsing space station in the Ben 10: Alien Force episode "Vendetta".
- Tahu does this with his sword while falling down a rock wall in BIONICLE: the Mask Of Light.
- Code Lyoko:
- In the first episode, "TeddyGozilla", Odd jumps down to catch a falling Aelita, and then slows them both by using his claws on the side of a cliff in the Desert sector.
- Ulrich does a Blade Brake in episode "Bad Connection", by thrusting his katana into a cliff of the Mountain Sector — and then catching Yumi — before they'd fall in the Digital Sea.
- The "stab the sail" version is altered in Duck Dodgers, episode "Shiver Me Dodgers", when the Cadet (Porky Pig) is doing it with a Laser Blade on the metal sail of a space pirate ship.
- In the Ed, Edd n Eddy episode "Avast Ye Eds", Jonny 2X4 slashes through the Kanker sister's bed-sheet sail with Plank, a piece of 2x4. All this does it punch a big hole in it and gives them another reason for him to Walk the Plank. Literally.
- He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (2002) has He-Man doing this. He jumps down a cliff to catch the king who had fallen. "He-Man....you can fly?!" "Uh... no." (The funny thing is he didn't think of the Blade Brake until after he caught the king.)
- She-Ra and the Princesses of Power: In "Princess Prom", Glimmer gives Adora a large hairpin to wear in her ponytail as part of her prom outfit. This ends up being useful when an attack leads to her falling from a ledge, and she uses the pin to stop herself from falling further.

The first hint of where "Cast Away" is headed comes with its title. Instead of the one-word "Castaway," which conjures up romanticized fare like "Swiss Family Robinson" or slapstick comedy like "Gilligan's Island," the title is split into "Cast Away," as in cast away from everyone and everything that ever gave you comfort. Further, the handling of the production itself carries forth the theme, with the filmmakers casting away the cinematic conventions generally employed to manipulate an audience. Far from the kind of formulaic event movie we usually get around the holidays, "Cast Away" is a nervy exercise in bare bones storytelling.
It starts in a deceptively traditional fashion, as we meet Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks), a fiercely dedicated FedEx troubleshooter who travels the globe preaching the gospel of tight organization and effective time management to employees. After returning from a successful trip to Russia, Chuck prepares to enjoy Christmas in Memphis with his girlfriend, Kelly Frears (Helen Hunt, in an understated, winning performance). But the festivities are interrupted when he is called away to deal with a problem in Malaysia.
Soon after, Chuck sits in a company plane, gazing at an extra special gift from Kelly – a stopwatch that once belonged to her grandfather, with her photo on the inside – while the pilots try to navigate through a horrific storm over the South Pacific. Suddenly, there is an explosion and the aircraft crashes into the water below, hurling Chuck beneath the wreckage. A life raft saves him and he eventually ends up on a small island several hundred miles from the middle of nowhere.
After the plane crash, a harrowing, realistic sequence nearly as terrifying as the one in "Fearless," the film's presentation style shifts almost as radically as Chuck's circumstances. Director Robert Zemeckis, working with Tom Hanks for the first time since "Forrest Gump," takes no easy outs. Where the camera shifted relentlessly during the Russian segment, mirroring the troubleshooter's agitated state of mind, it barely moves once Chuck crawls onto the island. For the next hour or so, there is no background music; no cutaways to loved ones worrying back in Memphis, nothing but a stark, intelligent portrait of a man trying to get by.
In interviews for the film, Tom Hanks acknowledged that some of the creative team grew dispirited when "Survivor" became a TV phenomenon, fearing that their years of hard work might be undermined by the game show. In fact, "Survivor" probably helped the production by showing that life on a beautiful tropical island is far more difficult that it looks. After viewing the struggles of the 16 contestants, the notion of a man facing such challenges alone seems even more daunting.
Hanks gained 30 plus pounds to prepare for the role. After the early island scenes were shot, the film closed down for a year, allowing the actor time to drop the weight. Hanks' physical transformation is quite impressive, but his extraordinary acting makes it pale by comparison. His performance is completely down to earth and unaffected. At no point does it feel like we are witnessing an actor trying to writhe his way to another Oscar. Instead, we simply watch Chuck try to find drinking water, crack a coconut without tools and build a fire. His trials are fascinating and his silence amplifies the gravity of the situation.
Once Chuck has taken care of his bodily needs, he must focus on staying sane. He keeps the photo of Kelly on constant display, giving himself someone to long for. Although he salvages a number of FedEx parcels and makes smart use of their contents, he leaves one package unopened and ready for delivery, giving himself a task that must some day be taken care of. Not a spiritual man (when the body of a crew member washes ashore, he buries it without prayer, looking at the makeshift grave and flatly muttering, "Well, that's it."), Chuck recognizes that he must have someone to talk to and comes up with an ingenious solution.
Ads for the movie make it clear that Chuck eventually returns to civilization (I suspect Zemeckis revealed that piece of information so that viewers would remain in the moment instead of fretting about whether or not Chuck would ever get home). As for what happens, suffice to say that the ending does not betray the integrity of what has come before.
It will be interesting to see if mass audiences embrace "Cast Away." Some may find the underlying world-view too bleak, but my guess is that the goodwill Tom Hanks engenders will carry them through. By the way, you'll need to set aside a little over two hours and 20 minutes for the film, but rest assured, you will not be bored for a second.

class ConstrainedFitnessAL:
Construct an unconstrained objective function from constraints.
This class constructs an unconstrained "fitness" function (to be minimized) from an objective function and an inequality constraints function (which returns a list of constraint values). An equality constraint h(x) == 0 must be expressed as two inequality constraints like [h(x) - eps, -h(x) - eps] with eps >= 0. Non-positive values <= 0 are considered feasible.
The update
method of the class instance needs to be called after each
iteration. Depending on the setting of which
, update
may call
get_solution(es) which shall return the solution to be used for the
constraints handling update, by default _get_favorite_solution ==
lambda es: es.ask(1, sigma_fac=0)[0]. The additional evaluation of
objective and constraints is avoided by the default which='best',
using the best solution in the current iteration.
find_feasible_first
optimizes to get a feasible solution first, which
only works if no equality constraints are implemented. For this reason
the default is False
.
Minimal example (verbosity set for doctesting):
>>> import cma >>> def constraints(x): # define the constraint ... return [x[0] + 1, x[1]] # shall be <= 0 >>> cfun = cma.ConstrainedFitnessAL(cma.ff.sphere, constraints, ... find_feasible_first=True) >>> es = cma.CMAEvolutionStrategy(3 * [1.1], 0.1, ... {'tolstagnation': 0, 'verbose':-9}) # verbosity for doctest only >>> es = es.optimize(cfun, callback=cfun.update) >>> x = es.result.xfavorite
The best x
return value of cma.fmin2
may not be useful, because
the underlying function changes over time. Therefore, we use
es.result.xfavorite
, which is still not guarantied to be a feasible
solution. Alternatively, cfun.best_feas.x
contains the best evaluated
feasible solution. However, this is not necessarily expected to be a
good solution, see below.
>>> assert sum((x - [-1, 0, 0])**2) < 1e-9, x >>> assert es.countevals < 2200, es.countevals >>> assert cfun.best_feas.f < 10, str(cfun.best_feas) >>> # print(es.countevals, cfun.best_feas.__dict__)
To find a final feasible solution (close to es.result.xfavorite
) we
can use the current CMAEvolutionStrategy
instance es
:
>>> x = cfun.find_feasible(es) # uses es.optimize to find (another) feasible solution >>> assert constraints(x)[0] <= 0, (x, cfun.best_feas.x) >>> assert cfun.best_feas.f < 1 + 2e-6, str(cfun.best_feas) >>> assert len(cfun.archives) == 3 >>> assert cma.ConstrainedFitnessAL(cma.ff.sphere, constraints, archives=False).archives == []
Details: The fitness, to be minimized, is changing over time such that the overall minimal value does not indicate the best solution.
The construction is based on the AugmentedLagrangian
class. If, as by
default, self.finding_feasible is False, the fitness equals f(x)
+ sum_i (lam_i x g_i + mu_i x g_i / 2) where g_i = max(g_i(x),
-lam_i / mu_i) and lam_i and mu_i are generally positive and
dynamically adapted coefficients. Only lam_i can change the position of
the optimum in the feasible domain (and hence must converge to the
right value).
When self.finding_feasible is True, the fitness equals to sum_i
(g_i > 0) x g_i^2 and omits f + sum_i lam_i g_i altogether.
Whenever a feasible solution is found, the finding_feasible
flag is
reset to False
.
find_feasible(es)
sets finding_feasible = True and uses
es.optimize
to optimize self.__call__
. This works well with
CMAEvolutionStrategy
but may easily fail with solvers that do not
consistently pass over the optimum in search space but approach the
optimum from one side only. This is not advisable if the feasible
domain has zero volume, e.g. when g
models an equality like
g = lambda x: [h(x), -h(x)].
An equality constraint, h(x) = 0, cannot be handled like h**2 <= 0,
because the Augmented Lagrangian requires the derivative at h == 0 to
be non-zero. Using abs(h) <= 0 leads to divergence of coefficient mu
and the condition number. The best way is apparently using the two
inequality constraints [h <= 0, -h <= 0], which seems to work perfectly
well. The underlying AugmentedLagrangian
class also accepts equality
constraints.

Deallocate the dynamically allocated object instance. using the RTOS system allocator.
| ptr | Pointer to object. |
| bytes | Number of bytes to deallocate. |
The deallocation function (<IP_ADDRESS>) called by a delete-expression to render the value of ptr invalid.
ptr shall be a null pointer or its value shall be a value returned by an earlier call to the (possibly replaced) operator new() which has not been invalidated by an intervening call to operator delete(void*).
If ptr is null, does nothing. Otherwise, reclaims the storage allocated by the earlier call to operator new.
The storage is deallocated using the RTOS system allocator.
