Review: Godzilla
Starring: Matthew Broderick, Jean Reno, Maria Pitillo, Hank Azaria, Michael Lerner, Kevin Dunn, Harry Shearer
Directed by Roland Emmerich
Approx running time: 130 min
Godzilla is a nuclear freak. He is a lizard that has been mutated over the years and has become a new species, one that has a foot as long as this bus, and a claw as long as this sign. This aquatic creature made its first attack in the Pacific Islands. He tore up a ship that carried dozens of Japanese men. One survived. Only he was left to recount the terror that he had seen. He was merely able to repeat the words "Godzilla...Godzilla...Godzilla".
The film then introduces us to Matthew Broderick, a biologist who has been studying the fascinating growth of Chernobyl earthworms. "They're 17% larger than they used to be!" he proclaims. The U.S. military pulls him off this three year project and assigns him to figure out what Godzilla is. And, boy, does he find out.
 I hate to use such a word in a review, something that is supposed to inform my audience, but I really need to drive this one home and I refuse to use explitives. It is unbelieveable to me how the producers of this movie saw the final cut and said, "Ok! It's great! Let's show this puppy."
Roland Emmerich needs a good horse whipping.  And if Steven Spielberg had never made the Jurassic Park films, Emmerich and his team of talent-challenged imbeciles would never have had a clue as to how the creature should look.
Let me give you a few examples of this terrible attempt at filmmaking. I plan on giving some things away here. Belive me, Godzilla holds no surprises for anyone with an IQ higher than their shoe size, so...no worries. However, if you are looking for that "first time thrill" and you refuse to let me do you this favor, by all means, stop reading now.
A.) Godzilla makes his first ever attack in the Pacific Islands. He next strikes in New York City. Um...anyone have a map handy?
B.) The Mayor of New York City is a heavy set individual with parted gray hair and thick glasses. His name is Mayor Ebert. His assistant is named Gene. Gene gives Ebert a thumbs down at the end of the film. I couldn't make this up if I tried, folks.
C.) Stay with me on this one... Ok. Godzilla can out run torpedoes. Hank Azaria can out run Godzilla babies. (Which look more like Jurassic Park raptors than the Jurassic Park raptors.)
D.) The U.S. Military, upon realization that Godzilla has disappeared after running rampant through the city, decides that he "might be hiding in a building."
E.) (oh yeah, I can go all the way to E.) Godzilla strikes at Manhattan. Manhattan, an island approximately the size of San Francisco holds three million people. They evactuate to New Jersey in about one day. No problem.
F.) Early on, they bait Godzilla with fish. (He likes fish, you know.) The thing is on an Island. The Atlantic Ocean is three steps east, but pile a whole bunch of grouper on Fifth and 57th...oh he's gonna come running.
G.) You know what? I'll stop with the list now...the alphabet isn't big enough anyway.
The dialogue makes me wonder if Producer Dean Devlin had his five year old do a re-write. "The kid is GOOD!" he must have said. Maria Pitillo is looking to become a name in Hollywood by starring in this potential blockbuster. Bad move, Maria. Acting doesn't get much worse than her turn as Broderick's ex-flame. Matthew Broderick is a good actor, but you'd never give him a chance if Godzilla were the only film of his you'd seen. Jean Reno needs to pick his American films a bit more carefully.
At times, Godzilla seems to be headed toward a Zucker, Abrahams, Zucker film. (Airplane!, Naked Gun.) The jokes are indeed that bad. But just when you think the filmmakers are having fun with you, they take themselves seriously.  Godzilla would have been better if it had only thrown in visual sight gags and fart jokes. At least then we would know we were supposed to laugh.
Emmerich did do one thing, though. (And I've no idea if it was intentional.) He made me sympathize with Godzilla.

Gradually adopting Org mode, part 1
04 Dec 2014Like most Org mode users, I started using Org mode as a TODO list. Though for a while now, the Org Babel mode has become an intrinsic part of my flow as well, to the point that outside doing code reading of other projects, I rarely visit files anymore and spend most of my time within Org mode buffers.
In this post I will attempt to document such progression to this style of using Org mode, and should also serve as a kind of tutorial for those without familiarity to Org mode.
Basic elements of Org mode
Org mode has a ton of features, so rather than explaining each one of the features of Org mode, I will describe what are the building blocks that we can choose from when authoring an Org mode document.
Some of the most basic elements of an Org mode document are:
- Org mode markup paragraphs
-
Similar to other markup languages, we can write text in /italics/, *bold*, _underline_, =code= or ~verbatim~, and even super and subscript: n_1, n^2
- headlines and sections
-
A section in Org mode is started by a headline. Headlines start with one or more asterisks.
* A headline Paragraph within a /headline/
We can set a TODO state to a headline to define whether something is done or not:
* TODO Need to do this! * DONE Needed to do this!
- blocks
-
A block is how we group together a bunch of lines that are not meant to be only paragraphs. Some of the builtin blocks that we can have in Org mode are: src, example, verse, quote and html.
A block will start
#+begin_...
and end with#+end_...
.One of the coolest features of the Org mode code blocks is that we can add metadata to them, such as which kind of language is being used inside of it (in case of src an example code blocks).
#+begin_src ruby "Hello world" #+end_src
In order for syntax highlighting to work, it is needed to include the following in the Emacs configuration file (or just eval it during boot):
(setq org-src-fontify-natively t)
It is also required that the Emacs install has the special mode for it.
- lists
-
A list can be an unordered, ordered or definition list:
- first level Org mode /markup/ + second level 1) third level 1. fourth level - back to first level + a definition list :: some definition
By putting empty brackets
[ ]
,[/]
, or[%]
at the beginning of a list, it can become a task list. PressingC-c C-C
on an item would update its value:Before:
- [0/1] one + [ ] two - [0%] three * [ ] four
After:
- [1/1] one + [X] two - [100%] three * [X] four
- tables
-
An Org mode table:
| apples | 10 | | oranges | 20 |
Tables in Org mode are very powerful. They are not meant to be only for authoring tables, but they have spreadsheet functionality as well. The following table would have its formulas evaluated after pressing TAB on it:
Before:
| fruit | quantity | price per fruit | COST | | apples | 10 | 5 | =$2 * $3 | | oranges | 20 | 7 | =$2 * $3 | | TOTAL | =vsum(@2..@3) | | |
After:
| fruit | quantity | price per fruit | COST | | apples | 10 | 5 | 50 | | oranges | 20 | 7 | 140 | | TOTAL | 30 | | | #+TBLFM: $2=vsum(@2..@3)::$4=$2 * $3
Basic usage of Org mode for TODO lists
At the beginning of my Org mode usage, my documents used to look like this I think:
* TODO Reply email from Alice ** TODO Reply Dear Alice... * TODO Capacity planning
One of the features I first adopted is the use of CLOCKS
.
You can start a clock by pressing: C-c C-x TAB
,
then we you are done you clock out with C-c C-x C-o
.
Then you can use C-c C-x C-d
to check the total time spent.
* DONE Reply email from Alice CLOCK: [2014-12-04 Thu 15:45]--[2014-12-04 Thu 15:50] => 0:05 ,** DONE Reply CLOCK: [2014-12-04 Thu 16:00]--[2014-12-04 Thu 17:00] => 1:00 Dear Alice... ,* TODO Capacity planning
Another helpful feature is narrowing down to a headline so that
other headlines are not shown. This can be done by pressing C-x n s
.
Having covered these basic I’ll go on to talk about Org Babel.
Start using Org mode for reproducible documents
The key thing about when using Org mode and for literate programming is when you care about making things reproducible.
Eric Schulte paper has more background on how the project started: http://www.jstatsoft.org/v46/i03
In order to use Org Babel we first need to enable it. This is how my
.emacs
looks for this:
(setq org-src-fontify-natively t)
(setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil)
(org-babel-do-load-languages
'org-babel-load-languages
'((emacs-lisp . t)
(clojure . t)
(R . t)
(C . t)
(sh . t)
(ruby . t)
(python . t)
(js . t)
(dot . t)
(haskell . t)
(scala . t)
))
Note that in order for the above to work, there have to be major modes in Emacs for those specific languages. Comment out or remove the language that is not on your setup.
Making the document active by giving things a name
To adopt Org mode literate programming mode, we need to start
using #+name
on top of some Org mode elements. By doing this,
it is possible to reference later on to that part of the document.
For example we can have a code block and eval it with C-c C-c
:
#+BEGIN_SRC ruby 1 + 1 #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: : 2
But by giving it a name, we can reuse this code block:
#+name: sum #+BEGIN_SRC ruby :var arg1=1 :var arg2=2 arg1 + arg2 #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: : 2 #+call: sum(10, 100) #+RESULTS: : 110
Or chain it with a table:
#+name: fruits | apples | 10 | | oranges | 20 | #+name: show-fruits #+BEGIN_SRC ruby :var fruitstable=fruits :results output code fruits = Hash[fruitstable] p fruits #+END_SRC #+RESULTS: show-fruits #+BEGIN_SRC ruby {"apples"=>10, "oranges"=>20} #+END_SRC
To be continued…

What was the United Nations Decade for Literacy, and when did it begin? The UN Decade for Literacy
was officially launched in the early part of the year 2003 and continued until 2012.
The purpose of the Decade was to bring world attention—and remedies—to the plight of the world's
one in five
illiterate adults.
This unit provides information on efforts to increase literacy rates of the world's people and also
explores the question, What are the degrees of "literacy" in a given language? While
literacy can be viewed as familiarity with the standard dialect of a language, at a more advanced
level, it can also be viewed as appreciation of the varieties of dialects in a given language, the
unique accents, grammatical forms and expressions of each.
The unit reading is a springboard that leads to comprehension questions, vocabulary exercises,
practice with structures using "wish" and "hope", listening comprehension and writing practice on
the skill of expressing wishes and hopes for the future. At the same time, all exercises
provide information about ways the United Nations promotes literacy throughout the world.

Na-Eun decides to forgive the netizen that left malicious hate comments
by jennywillA Pink's Na-Eun has decided to halt her suit against a malicious commenter.
Play M Entertainment announced, "Hello, this is Play M Entertainment. Back on June 21st, we filed a suit to the Gangnam Police District's Cyber Investigations Team about a person who had continuously attacked, sexually harassed, and spread false information about A Pink's Na-Eun. As she and the label had suffered, we had requested strong investigations, and we were able to find the identity of the attacker. We found out that he is currently being hospitalized. He is a graduate of Korea's best 'S' University's law school, and became mentally ill after spending a lot of time preparing for the bar. Na-Eun learned of the attacker's condition and received his family's sincere apology, and she has decided graciously to forgive him completely. However, our label will continue to seek legal action against those who comment maliciously about A Pink as well as all of our other artists and take action. We will work our best to protect our label artist. Thank you."
Do you think she did the right thing forgiving him?

Parrots are popular pets because they are beautiful to look at, they have gorgeous bright plumage and they are very affectionate and sociable birds to keep in a home environment
Parrots are birds of the order Psittaciformes. There are about 372 species in 86 genera. They are found in most tropical and subtropical regions. The greatest diversity of parrots is found in South America and Australasia. Parrots are intelligent birds. They have relatively large brains,they can learn, and they can use simple tools.

A few weeks ago, Andy and I sat down with Javier Baez in the Peoria Chief's home dugout at O'Brien Field and recorded an interview for the Ivy Envy Podcast. You can listen to that interview right here.
Baez was named as the Midwest League Player of the Week for the week of July 9-15th. During the week, Baez hit .478 with three home runs, two doubles and two triples. He had five RBI and two stolen bases. For the week, his slugging percentage was 1.130 and his OPS was 1.630. Baez is the first Peoria Chiefs player to win this award in nearly three years.
The 19-year old is ranked as the #2 prospect in the Cubs minor league system. I doubt the Cubs plan to race Baez through the system, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him move up to Daytona towards the end of the season. If you live in Central Illinois, or maybe a little further out and want to make a little baseball road trip, don't miss out on the opportunity to see Javier Baez while he is in the Midwest League. Our hometown readers in the Quad Cities can see Baez and the Chiefs play the River Bandits (Cardinals) at Modern Woodmen Park July 31st - August 3rd.

The company creates accessibility by providing a wide variety of options. It has acquired several organizations since its founding, including Kinsights, Citrus Lane, Parents in a Pinch, Breedlove & Associates, and Besser Betreut. This strategy has enabled it to greatly expand its capabilities and diversify its portfolio, which now includes the following:

It also maintains an affiliate program through which third-party organizations promote its offerings on their platforms (websites, mobile apps, etc.) in exchange for a commission.
Key Resources
Care.com’s main resource is its proprietary software platform, which serves over 22.8 million members.
It depends on human resources in the form of engineers that maintain and update its platform, sales employees that promote its services, and customer service personnel that provide support.
Lastly, as a startup it has relied heavily on funding from outside parties, raising $156.9 million from investors as of June 2016.

Care.com has two revenue streams:
- Subscription Revenues – Revenues it generates from fees charged to customers for subscribing to its platform; fees range from $37 for a monthly subscription to $147 for an annual subscription

Sam Hunt arrested on DUI charges in Nashville
by Wade SheridanNov. 21 (UPI) -- Country star Sam Hunt was arrested in Nashville on Thursday for driving under the influence and possessing an open container.
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department confirmed the arrest to Billboard.
Hunt was released from custody on a $2,500 bond and is scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 17.
The singer was stopped by police after his vehicle was spotted by drivers going the wrong way and swerving in and out of his lane on Nashville's Ellington Parkway. Two open containers were found in his car.
Hunt consented to a breath test which found that he had a blood alcohol content of 0.173. The 34-year-old said he consumed alcohol and had trouble providing his license to officers, the arrest warrant stated.

Maya Angelou, RuPaul among California Hall of Fame class
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Author Maya Angelou and performer RuPaul are among the inductees for the next class of California Hall of Fame.
Gov. Gavin Newsom and his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, announced the inductees on Wednesday.
The class includes soccer player and two-time World Cup champion Brandi Chastain, skateboarder and entrepreneur Tony Hawk, actor and comedian George Lopez, chef and restaurateur Wolfgang Puck, astrophysicist France A. Córdova, author Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston, civil rights leader James M. Lawson Jr. and winemaker Helen M. Turley.
The class will be inducted during a ceremony on Dec. 10, though Angelou died in 2014.
The California Hall of Fame started in 2006, and inductees are selected each year by the governor and first partner.
Newsom is a Democrat and says the inductees “embody California’s innovative spirit.”

What's this?
This chart shows the deaths from COVID-19 in Sweden over time.
The map shows the various counties of Sweden. The color shows how many deaths have occured in that county relative to the county's population. This way, counties with low populations but high death rates will stand out. Hovering over the county will show you the actual number of deaths, as well as the population of the county.
Clicking on a region or selecting the region from the dropdown at the bottom will show data for just that region.
The chart shows the number of deaths over time, ICU cases, and cumulative values for these over time.
For comparison, there are dashed lines on the chart showing the total annual Flu deaths for Sweden in 2019, as well as the total number of Flu-related intensive care cases for 2019.
Clicking on the name of a dataset will either show or hide that dataset in the chart
Why not show case numbers as well?
Sweden isn't testing thoroughly, so the case numbers can show trends that aren't actually happening. The death numbers, on the other hand, are kept track of more meticulously, and therefore give a more accurate view of the situation.
Data discrepancy
The numbers indicated in Sweden (official) are from Folkhälsomyndigheten. The regional data has been curated from regional reports as found at Corona Kartan. While these two should be consistent with each other, there are discrepancies. As best as I can tell, it's a result of FHM going through backlogs and cleaning them up. This means that, for historic data, the official (FHM) data will be more accurate, but for up-to-the-minute data, the regional data will be more accurate.
Also note, the values shown when hovering over the map are from FHM, and also aren't always consistent with the other two datasets. I'm just displaying them all.

Drizzle 2009/03/03
The SF MySQL meetup last night [1] about Drizzle [2] was a home run by my limited research [3]. It won’t be a get-out-of-jail-free card for very write-heavy applications but I bet it will do wonders for heavily replicated, heavily federated, read-heavy architectures (you know, normal stuff).
The common conception of Drizzle is a bit off center so I’d like to offer my 2-sentence version. First and foremost, Drizzle is a refactor of MySQL for today’s hardware and today’s architectures. Second, Drizzle is pluggable — everything from the storage engines (which default to InnoDB) to the pluggable PAM authentication and replication — is replaceable or removable.
I intimately understand the pros and cons of global mutexes. Much of my performance testing at OpenDNS has to do with how long our stats pipeline spends waiting for mutex locks. I have to commend Brian Aker and Drizzle’s commitment to their removal. I suspect read-heavy loads will see a major performance increase from this alone (Brian was quoting something like 11-13% of time was spent in the heavily-mutexed authentication code Update: that time is spent in parsing, not in auth, still, the mutexes are bad). The last big mutex is the one that enables MyISAM and it sounded like (it could have been a convincing planned monologue) Brian decided during his talk to remove it, meaning you’d not be able to use MyISAM in Drizzle. That’s fine by me — I only use MyISAM in places where table-level locks are okay.
That time spent in authentication is usually a complete waste. Motivated by the countless MySQL instances running as “root” with no password, authentication is now a removable plugin that can also use PAM auth like your OS can. I hope my operator will let me just take it out.
Most folks in the room didn’t seem to pick up on this one but there was a hand-wavey mention of a “shard bit” in the wire protocol which would open the doors to software (or even hardware!) load-balancers that could understand how you federate your data.
The last thing I found compelling enough to write down is that Drizzle is making heavy use of Google’s Protocol Buffers [4] as part of their query planning. Serialized, they’re used as an alternative wire format and as the replication protocol. Crazy things like replicating some Drizzle tables through a Protocol Buffer proxy into a different database engine become downright easy. For example, keeping your main table in a very indexed Drizzle database while replicating a distilled version into MemcacheDB for fast primary-key lookups of the essential data.
(This reads like a press release, I’m sorry. I wrote all of this down as a cheatsheet for talking to the rest of OpenDNS about when and if this will make sense for parts of our architecture.)


ohayo is a research prototype for a new family of programming languages called Tree Languages. Tree Languages are like Lisps without parentheses.
Why use Tree Languages over Lisps? Tree Languages use a very simple geometric syntax that we think will make programs easier to develop, analyze and maintain at scale.
Tree Languages and Ohayo are very new! If you are a busy professional and want to wait until they are more stable, send an email to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>We will send you 1 email when it's ready, and then delete your email address.
If you are feeling adventurous, you can try the ohayo preview release.

'Priceless' Treasures Looted from Green Vault Museum in Dresden, Eastern Germany
According to Bild newspaper, the Green Vault museum in the city of Dresden was raided in the early hours of Monday by a gang of burglars.
An early morning heist in Dresden's Green Vault museum has resulted in the loss of jewellery of "inestimable cultural and historical value", the director of the museum Marion Ackermann told AFP on Monday.
Earlier, Dresden police confirmed that a burglary had taken place at the Green Vault, a historic museum in Dresden, Germany that contains the largest collection of treasures in Europe.
According to the police, a surveillance camera has recorded a video of two culprits who broke into the building through a shattered window.
The criminals, who remain at large, stole three 18th-century jewellery sets, among other items of antique jewellery.
Bild newspaper previously reported that the burglars stole treasures with a combined value estimated at nearly a billion euros.
Reports indicated that the burglars shut off the power supply to the museum before breaking in. A fire has also been reported on a bridge near the museum that is believed to have been caused by the power failure.
The Green Vault is a historic museum in Dresden dating back to 1723. It exhibits a vast collection of precious stones from the Baroque to the Classical eras.


Rhode Island gains jobs, and unemployment rate holds steady
by EndPlayPROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - State labor officials say Rhode Island gained 2,400 jobs from September to October and the unemployment rate held steady.
The state Department of Labor and Training says the number of Rhode Island-based jobs in October was 505,800, up 2,400 jobs from the revised September job count. That's up 8,900 jobs compared to the previous year.
The state unemployment rate in October was 3.6%, unchanged from September. It is four-tenths of a percentage point lower than October 2018.
The state rate is the same as the national rate.

$ exa A modern replacement for ls
You list files hundreds of times a day. Why spend your time squinting at black and white text?
exa is an improved file lister with more features and better defaults. It uses colours to distinguish file types and metadata. It knows about symlinks, extended attributes, and Git. And it’s small, fast, and just one single binary.
exa is written in Rust. So you’ll need that first in case you don’t already have it.
Run the following command (assuming you have curl installedo on your system) to get started with the installation of Rust in your ubuntu based server/pc:
$ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
Now you need to download the lattest version of exa. Head on to their github page and download the lattest version.
Just copy the download link and download the zip using wget, for example with the v0.9.0 you can download the binary with the following command (you can switch to a temporary directory and download the zip in there):
# You should check your own version of this.
$ wget -c https://github.com/ogham/exa/releases/download/v0.9.0/exa-linux-x86_64-0.8.0.zip
Then, unzip the binary:
$ unzip exa-linux-x86_64-0.8.0.zip
The zip contains a single file, namely the binary exa-linux-x86_64. So the last step is to move it to the bin directory of the local user so it will be accesible later in the cli as exa with the following instruction:
$ sudo mv exa-linux-x86_64 /usr/local/bin/exa
To use this all you need is to type exa on your terminal. However what you can do to make the change even more perminante is to alias ls to axa.
To do that I went to my .zshrc file and added the following:
alias ls='exa --long --header --git'
This way you can use your ls command like you always did and it will be translated into exa.
Exa supports the following main features:
Colours
Different types of file and data will be coloured differently, and the user and group columns will be highlighted for the current user.
All the information
exa can display a file’s extended attributes, as well as standard filesystem information such as the inode, the number of blocks, and a file’s various dates and times.
It’s fast
exa queries files in parallel, giving you performance on par with ls.
Tree view
Not only is the standard tree tool built-in, but it’ll show you your files’ information alongside the hierarchy.
Git support
View the staged and unstaged status of every file, right there in the standard view. Also works in tree view for a high-level overview of your repository.
Wide view
How many columns can you display in your terminal at once? How many do you need?

Purpose¶
PsyNeuLink is a “block modeling system” for cognitive neuroscience. Block modeling systems allow components to be constructed that implement various, possibly disparate functions, and then link them together into a system to examine how they interact. In PsyNeuLink, components are used to implement the function of brain subsystems and/or psychological processes, the interaction of which can then be simulated at the system level.
PsyNeuLink is open source, and meant to be extended. Its goal is to provide an environment for implementing models of mind/brain function that are modular, customizable, extensible, disseminable, and clearly documented. It does this in a manner that:
- is computationally general — that is, that can implement any desired mechanism or process;
- adheres as closely as possible to the insights and design principles that have been learned in computer science (e.g., function-based, object-oriented programming);
- expresses (as few as possible) commitments that reflect general principles of how the brain/mind is organized and operates, without committing to any particular model or theory;
- expresses these commitments in a form that is powerful, easy to use, and familiar to cognitive neuroscientists;
allows models to be simply and flexibly implemented, using a minimum of coding, and that provides seamless integration of, and interaction among disparate components that can vary in their:
- granularity of representation and function
- time-scale of operation
- provides a standard and accessible environment for model comparison, sharing, and documentation;
- interface (API) can easily be constructed to other powerful tools for implementing individual components, such as:
- MatLab (general purpose mathematical tools);
- TensorFlow, Teano (ODE’s, deep learning);
- Emergent (broad class of neurally-plausible connectionist models);
- ACT-R (sybmolic, production system models).
The goal is to encourage users to think about information processing in a “mind/brain-like” way, while imposing as few constraints as possible on what it is possible to implement or ask the model to do.
What PsyNeuLink is NOT¶
PsyNeuLink is not presently well suited to:
- extensive model fitting
- large scale simulations
- elaborate and detailed models of a particular form
- biophysically-realistic models of individual neurons
Other packages that are much better for such applications are: Emergent and TensorFlow (for neural network models); HDDM (for Drift Diffusion Models); ACT-R (for production system models); Genesis, Neuron, and Nengo (for biophysically-realistic models of neuronal function).
These packages are all better for elaborate and detailed models of a particular form. In contrast, the initial efforts in the design and implementation of PsyNeuLink have been put into making it as flexible and easy to use as possible, including its ability to integrate components constructed in other packages (includling some of the ones listed above). These are characteristics that are often (at least in the initial stages of development) in tension with efficiency (think: interpreted vs. compiled). As PsyNeuLink grows and matures, our expectation is that effort will be put into making it more efficient.
Overview¶
PsyNeuLink is written in Python, and conforms to the syntax and (most of the) coding standards for the language. The primary constructs in PsyNeuLink are mechanisms, projections, processes, and systems.
Mechanisms. A PsyNeuLink mechanism takes an input, transforms it with a function in some way, and makes the output available to other mechanisms. Its primary purpose is representational transformation (that is, “information processing”). Mechanisms can take any form of input, use any function, and generate any form of output. PsyNeuLink provides mechanisms with standard functions (e.g., linear and logistic transforms for scalars and arrays; integrator functions, including various forms of drift diffusion processes; and matrix algebraic functions). However a mechanism can easily be customized with any function that can be written in or called from Python.
Projections and Processes. Mechanisms are composed into processes, by linking them into pathways with projections. A projection takes the output of its sender mechanism, and transforms it as necessary to provide it as input to its receiver mechanism. The primary purpose of a projection is to convey information from one mechanism to another, converting the information from its sender into a form that is usable by its receiver. A process is a linear chain of mechanisms connected by projections. Projections within a pathway can be recurrent, but they cannot branch (that is done with systems, as described below). Processes can also be configured for learning, in which the projections are trained to produce a specified output for each of a given set of inputs.
System. A system is composed of a set of processes. Typically, the processes of a system overlap – that is, they share one or more mechanisms. The network of processes in a system is explicitly represented as a graph, in which each node is a mechanism, and each edge is a projection. The system’s graph is used to execute it, and can be exported to display and/or analyze it. Each system can also have a controller, that can be configured to monitor the output of any of its mechanisms, evaluate this according to any objective function, and used to control any of the parameters of the mechanisms’ function so as to optimize the objective function.
Note
The functionality described under Execution below is still being implemented. At present, all mechanisms
operate in trial
mode, and some operate in time_step
mode; however, the coordination and
has execution of components with mixed time scales has not yet been fully implemented and debugged.
Execution. Mechanisms in PsyNeuLink can be run at one of two time scales. In trial
mode, the
transformation computed by a mechanism is “complete” (i.e., the result is stationary. For example, for an
integrator, the full integral is computed in a single step (analytically where possible). In time_step
mode, PsyNeuLink approximates “continuous time” by breaking computations into sequential time steps at a specified
level of precision. For example, for an intergrator, it numerically integrates the path at a specified rate. A system
automatically coordinates the execution of its mechanisms, synchronizing those that are operating on different time
scales (e.g., suspending ones using trial mode
until those using time_step
mode have met
specified criteria.]
Since mechanisms can implement any function, projections insure that they can “communicate” with each other seamlessly, and systems coordinate execution over different time scales, PsyNeuLink can be used to integrate mechanisms of different types, levels of analysis, and/or time scales of operation, composing heterogeneous elements into a single integrated system. This affords modelers the flexibility to commit each component of their model to a form of processing and/or level of analysis that is appropriate for that component, while providing the opportunity to test and explore how they interact with one another in a single system.
Major Components in PsyNeuLink
Component Hierarchy¶
PsyNeuLink uses the following primary constructs (illustrated in the figure below):
- System
Set of (potentially interacting) processes, that can be managed by a “budget” of control and trained.
- Process
Takes an input, processes it through an ordered list of mechanisms and projections, and generates an output.
- Mechanisms
Transforms an input representation into an output representation. Parameters determine its operation, under the influence of projections. There are three primary types: ..
- Processing Mechanisms
Aggregates the inputs it receives from other mechanisms or the input to a process or system, transforms them in some way, and provides the result either as input to other mechanisms and/or to the output of a process or system.
- Control Mechanism
Evaluates the output of one or more other mechanisms, and uses this to modify the parameters of those or other mechanisms.
- MonitoringMechanism
Monitors the output of one or more other mechanisms, compares these to a target value, and generates an error signal used for learning.
- Projections
Takes the output of a mechanism, possibly transforms it, and uses it to determine the operation of another mechanism. There are three primary types:
- MappingProjection
Takes the output of a sender mechanism, transform it as necessary to be usable by a receiver mechanism, and provides it as input to that receiver mechanism.
- ControlProjection
Takes an allocation (scalar) (usually the output of a ControlMechanism) and uses it to modulate the parameter(s) of a mechanism.
- LearningProjection
Takes an error signal (scalar or vector, usually the output of a Monitoring Mechanism) and uses it to modulate the parameter of a projection (usually the matrix of a MappingProjection).
- [+ GatingSignal — Not yet implemented
Takes a gating signal source and uses it to modulate the input or output state of a mechanism.
Installation¶
Currently, PsyNeuLink is in an alpha state and is not available through pypi/pip. Instead, you can clone the github repo (https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/PsyNeuLink). Clone the master branch. Download the package with the green “Clone or download” button on the right side of the page and “Download ZIP.”
Alternatively, if you are familiar with git, the directory can be cloned as usual through the terminal. Note: The repo is currently private, so if the link leads to a dead page, reach out to one of the developers to get acccess.
PsyNeuLink is compatible with any version of python 3, but the tutorial (see below) requires a 3.5 installation with the latest versions of IPython, jupyter, and matplotlib installed.
To install the package, navigate to the cloned directory in a terminal, switch to your preferred python3 environment, then run the command __”pip install .”__ (make sure to include the period and to use the appropriate pip/pip3 command for python 3.5). All prerequisite packages will be automatically added to your environment.
Once downloaded, a tutorial can be run using the terminal command jupyter notebook
within the root directory
of the PsyNeuLink package. Once the jupyter notebook opens, within the list of files click on
“PsyNeuLink Tutorial.ipynb”. This will open the tutorial, that will provide any additional information needed to get
started.
If you have trouble installing the package, or run into other problems, please contact<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Contributors¶

Abstract In this paper, we consider the problem of black box continuous submodular maximization where we only have access to the function values and no information about the derivatives is provided.
Abstract One of the beauties of the projected gradient descent method lies in its rather simple mechanism and yet stable behavior with inexact, stochastic gradients, which has led to its wide-spread use in many machine learning applications.
Abstract In this paper, we study the problem of maximizing continuous submodular functions that naturally arise in many learning applications such as those involving utility functions in active learning and sensing, matrix approximations and network inference.
Abstract In many machine learning applications, submodular functions have been used as a model for evaluating the utility or payoff of a set such as news items to recommend, sensors to deploy in a terrain, nodes to influence in a social network, to name a few.
Abstract In this paper, we consider the problem of actively learning a linear classifier through query synthesis where the learner can construct artificial queries in order to estimate the true decision boundaries.


Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan Khan's 22nd birthday: Fans pour in wishes over social media
by TIMESOFINDIA.COMSuperstar Shah Rukh Khan's Aryan Khan has not marked his debut in Bollywood, however, he enjoys a huge fan following over social media. The star kid is an internet sensation! Pictures and videos of the actor take over the internet in no time.
Today, Aryan turned a year older and his fans poured in love for him in the comment section. He will ring in his 22nd birthday today and fans dropped wishes over his posts on Instagram.
Check them out here:
And due to Aryan's uncanny resemblance to his dad, the masses expect the boy to make his debut soon. However, recently in a talk show, SRK revealed that Aryan doesn't want to get into acting. He said that he doesn't think his son has what it takes to be an actor and according to the actor and Aryan also realises that.
Meanwhile, Aryan made a debut of sorts in Bollywood recently as he dubbed for the Hindi version of Hollywood film, 'The Lion King'. Aryan voiced for the character of Simba, while SRK had dubbed for Mufasa.

im always building roleplaying fighters who arent good but i like them a lot. now i have this situation: im lpaying with my fighter, which isnt that fun anynore, because i have everything, and im looking at a fast, strong little man. hes a pure monk and hes fighting with two kamas. now i must admit, i love this guy. hes talking about str based monk and dex based. i ask him how i have to build that char. he dont know, so heres my question: i want to build a pure monk who fights with two kamas. the guy says it need to be str based, what is that exactly? how do i have to build it? and then i mean step by step and completely worked out, im a ubernoob in characterbuilding. so i need to know what abilities, gear, skills, feats, etc, etc. who can help me please?
kevin
Hi,
Have you looked through the list of builds in the guild? I found this strength-based dual-kama monk:
Click Here
Strength-based means you're focusing on developing strength, as opposed to a Dex-based monk which is more agile but hits less hard.
Try out this build in an off-line training module (like the link in my sig) and then come back and post with your questions/thoughts. It will help everyone to better assist you.
Kaliban. _________________ Check out the Epic Character Builders Guild Click Here Test your new builds in this mod: Click Here
thanks a lot. i think ill start building the monk right away. it will take some time before i have completed it, but someday ill have it done . thanks!
kevin
You can build it either way. If you go STR based, you will have higher damage potential, but weaker defenses. If you go DEX based, you have higher defensive ability, but may run into trouble with damage resistance. If you go DEX based, I'd suggest still having enough STR to take a power attack feat, and maybe improved power attack. _________________ Come visit the Epic Builders Guild for all the character info you could ever want or need: Click Here
ah, i see. well i have it quitte clear now, because i have several topics everywhere.
i think this is quitte good: 12 str 14 dex 10 con 10 int 14 wis (or 12) 8 cha (as low as possible)
it would be 11 ranger/9 monk what do you think about it?

What learning's did you take from the chapter and how did you find the two minutes of mindfulness?
A.
After reading the first chapter of Search Inside Yourself and after watching a few youtube videos
of Chade-Meng Tan. The Jolly good fellow is indeed a fitting title.
I love hearing of someone from such a renowned place and position, being allowed the time to develop such
a course and also being given the time and space to teach and give it to those around him.
Age does not limit nor define ones ability to grow and change.
Growth internally is not just good
for the individual, but also for the whole.
The minds wellbeing is deeply entwined with the body, a symbiotic relationship of inter-connectedness
and dependence. His words and the messages that he conveys, chime with me and my view.
Mindfulness, a practice that brings me great joy and strength. I love to succeed for others it brings
me unfathomable peace and stored resilience.
A victory for all, because not only are our minds and bodies wellbeing connected, but so too are we
to those around us and in turn they to us.
As far as I have ever been able to see, all religions, faiths, traditions or other, share at
least one belief in common ..
Love is great!
So my belief is to hone that skill first and deal with the rest afterwards.

Another World: "As far as researchers know, there are no fictional stories nor mythologies in the Pirahã culture. All stories are descriptions of experiences, and these stories only go back one or two generations at most. There is no collective memory of the Pirahã people; no history of their people is recorded by them. There is practically no art in their culture; whatever drawings they make are only used to describe the spirit world that they have experienced and are not drawn for aesthetic purposes."

A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia.
Chips consist of four clubs: Chess Club, Graphics Club, Networking, Systems and Security Club, Programming Club.
Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean


The simple code above represents an HTML document containing 4 boxes, an outer container, a gray box container and 2 inner boxes.
As you can see, none of the 3 inner boxes have the position property set. This means that they're all set to static (default) positioning. This is why you see them positioned in the exact same order they were placed in the HTML code, in other words they are all set in the normal flow of the document.
In this second example, you can see that the position of the 2 most inner boxes was changed to absolute. Also, you can see that the right property was also set to zero for both. Here we're faced with 3 questions:
- Why are both the boxes on top of each of other?
By setting both of their positions to absolute, both boxes are repositioned in relation to the browser window, they no longer abide to the normal flow of the document. Thus, they fall over one another. - Why did both boxes move all the way to the right of the screen?
When we set the right property of an element, we're essentially setting the distance between the right edge of that element and its containing element (in this case the outer white box). - But why, are they positioned in relation to the outer white box and not their container (the gray box)?
The reason is that the position of the gray container box is static. If you want to see what happens if we change the position value of the gray container box, check the next example!
In this third example, the gray container has the position set to relative.
Now you can see that both the inner boxes are positioned at the upper right corner of th gray container. The reason is that since the gray container now has a position value other than static, it can serve as the container for all inner elements.
In this fourth example you see that the position of both the inner boxes is set to relative. And we can also see that the green box is given a left value of 5em. Now this raises a few questions:
- Why did both boxes move back into the gray container box?
Because of their (relative) position. In this case the element is positioned relative to its normal position in the document. - Why is the Yellow box not positioned to the right of the gray container even though it has a right value of 0?
Since the yellow box has a relative position, it was shifted 0 units to the right of its initial (normal) position. Since the value is 0, it didn't move at all! - Why is the green box shifted from the left?
Again, since the green box has a relative position, and a left value of 5em, it was pushed to the left 5 units away from its initial (normal) position
If you think you haven't gotten the grasp of these examples, I strongly suggest that you replicate the code above and start playing around with it a little bit, try changing the position value for the boxes, and see what happens. I also suggest taking a look at this example that is setup by W3Schools.
