A laundry list of personal reminders. “Notes to Myself on Software Engineering” is published by François Chollet
Anyone can learn to write code. Some skills that differentiate an engineer from a coder are:
* understanding your target audience
* knowing what code to write
* creating a long-term architectural plan
* building consensus with other engineers around how to execute the plan

THE BIG LEBOWSKI (MPAA rating: R)
Directed by Joel Coen Written by Ethan & Joel Coen Starring Jeff Bridges, John Goodman, Julianne Moore, Steve Buscemi
Reviewed by Bart
About six months ago, I was in the cinema watching the trailers for upcoming movies. There was the usual complement of five, and they had one thing in common -- they were all previewing remakes or sequels. There was not one original idea between them. Add to that the "reverse spin-off" movies from TV shows (I won't pass judgement on "Lost In Space" or "The X-Files" yet, but "Sanford and Son"? Puh-leeze!), the alarming number of cases of two movies being made from the same material (Steve Prefontaine, volcanoes, the Dalai Lama, earthbound comets) and Miramax's interest in resurrecting the "Rambo" franchise and you've got to wonder what things are going to be like in a few years' time. So it's in this atmosphere that it's good to see the refreshing and always-original Coen brothers follow up "Fargo", a movie about an unusual quasi-kidnapping, with "The Big Lebowski", a movie about...an unusual quasi-kidnapping.
OK, so the similarity may pretty much end with that sentence, but given that this is hardly a genre that's flooding the cineplexes, it's all a bit unnerving. So much so that "Fargo" was always in the back of my mind, which was a shame since "The Big Lebowski", while undoubtedly better than most current movies, compares unfavourably to that earlier picture.
Jeff Bridges plays Jeff Lebowski, known as "Dude", a pot-smoking neo-hippie who returns from a bowling game with his friends Walter (John Goodman, who spends the entire movie shouting) and Donny (Steve Buscemi, in a ridiculously small role) to find two goons in his apartment demanding payment for debts run up by his wife. The goons are actually looking for another Jeff Lebowski (the "big" one of the title, played by David Huddleston), but being typical goons, they fail to realize that the Dude's abode is far removed from the opulence of their millionaire targets, and by the time they realize this one of them has already urinated on the Dude's rug. Walter persuades the Dude to try to get some compensation from the Big Lebowski and it is this meeting which causes the Dude to be brought in as a courier when the richer Lebowski's young wife disappears and a ransom note is received. Things of course do not run smoothly and typical Coen brothers mayhem ensues.
So, what's wrong with this picture? Well, while the collection of subplots and dream sequences usually succeed by themselves, as a whole they lack cohesion and the movie feels disjointed. Earlier Coen brothers movies got their delightfully surreal nature predominantly from the premise, but in "The Big Lebowski" it is the characters who provide the surreality via a collection of unusual traits, and this melting pot of bizarreness fails to produce the overall feel possessed by their previous movies. The movie does have some great scenes, however, especially those featuring John Turturro as a bowler on a rival team, and invites frequent laughter, but ultimately it's not up to the consistent standards of the Coens. That doesn't mean it's a bad movie, since these standards are high, but it will be a disappointment to many fans of Joel and Ethan's work.
Also look out for the brief screen debut of singer/songwriter Aimee Mann as the girlfriend of one of the three German nihilists, and the motion sickness-inducing camera shot looking out through the fingerholes of a bowling ball during one of the dream sequences.

‘Morally challenged’ getting income by insurance fraud
Exaggerated insurance claims are “an income supplement to the morally challenged”, says the State’s largest public sector insurer head of claims.
Courts must take a firmer stance in not only throwing out fraudulent claims but also imposing costs and prison terms on fraudsters, according to Michael Whelehan, head of claims at Irish Public Bodies Insurance, the State insurer of public bodies and councils.
He warned that those who lodge fraudulent claims are “walking free from courts with the message to spin the wheel again”.
Chief Justice Frank Clarke has announced that a new committee to review personal injury awards will begin soon.
The failure to tackle excessive payouts is undermining community and voluntary events as funds are diverted from services to pay for increased insurance premiums, Mr Whelehan has warned.
He said existing rules need to be implemented “with vigour”, and fraudulent claims should be met with “costs, dismissal, fines and imprisonment as realistic propositions”.
“Local services will be constrained, leisure and amenities curtailed, funds diverted, and we will continue to fund the making of insurance claims and exaggerated insurance claims as an income supplement to the morally challenged,” said Mr Justice Clarke.
John O’Driscoll, Assistant Garda Commissioner in special crime operations, said there may be more convictions.
“Potential exists to achieve additional success in the prevention and detection of insurance-related fraud,” he said.
Under Operation Coatee, gardaí target “not only those that receive a payment arising from a bogus, questionable and exaggerated claim but also anyone who facilitates the commission of crime in this nature”.

Save big on the Fitbit Versa 2 for Black Friday - now just $149.99
Get the Fitbit Versa 2 for its lowest price to date
by Richard EastonIf you're looking to bag a Fitbit Versa 2 bargain this Friday then we officially announce deals season as OPEN!
ADVERTISEMENT
Amazon has Fitbit's latest smartwatch for its lowest price yet. Right now you can save $50 bringing the price down to just $149.99.

Amazon: Fitbit Versa 2 - Save £50 | Buy Now $149.99 |
And it looks set to stick around as Fitbit has also got the same price on the Versa 2 over at the Fitbit Store.
We would be surprised to see a better deal than this over the course of Black Friday - but of course, there's plenty of time for retailers to try and go one better.
We gave the Fitbit Versa 2 a 4/5 review, concluding "Alexa is the star of the show here, but it’s the small improvements in the design and software that really make the Versa 2 feel like a leap ahead."
If you haven't been following along, Amazon Alexa is the biggest addition to the Fitbit Versa 2. This lets you use Amazon's digital assistant straight from your wrist to do pretty much anything Alexa is famed for.

There's also a new Spotify app and other software improvements including the debut of Sleep Score, Smart Wake, Sleep Mode and the Estimated Oxygen Variation Graph features.

Amazon: Fitbit Versa 2 - Save £50 | Buy Now $149.99 |
While the Amazon deal has been the best out the gate, it seems other retailers are gearing up for the big day with deals of their own. In the US we're seeing more and more Versa 2 deals get released from big retailers like Best Buy, Walmart, and Target and even smaller stores are running some deals.
Walmart just went live with their Versa 2 deal which matches Amazon's price drop and includes free shipping. Soon after we saw Best Buy release their deal and Target followed suit dropping the price to just $149.95.
We're also seeing some department stores with price drops. Macy's has a deal matching the other big retailers and Kohl's dropped the price on the Versa 2 to $149.99 and is even throwing in $30 Kohl's Cash with purchase.
ADVERTISEMENT
While the bigger stores are having some killer Versa 2 deals this year, you don't want to overlook smaller specialty shops and warehouse clubs.
Costco just released their Versa 2 Black Friday bundle deal which members will be able to score for $139.99 and of the smaller shops we've seen B&H Photo Video drop $50 on the Versa 2.
If you do fancy waiting it out, there's a strong chance the Fitbit Versa 2 - among other Fitbit devices - will feature heavily in the Black Friday 2019 discounts. Be sure to check out our other articles as we gear up for the deals bonanza.

I had received 100mg of 2C-E from an online vendor 2 weeks previous, but had delayed any trial of the compound as I was recovering from a bad cold. When the time came to try the 2C-E, there were 3 participants, myself and two friends (who I will refer to as B and T). I have previous experience with LSD, Psilocybe mushrooms, mescaline, LSA, MDMA, yohimbine, AMT, and MDA. I was excited about trying 2C-E after reading reports, as the only other phenethylamine (as opposed to amphetamine deriv) I have tried is mescaline, and they had been life changing, in a positive way (mescaline killed any desire to get drunk, and I very rarely consume alcohol now).
All three of us had read reports in order to determine what dose to take and what the main effects would be. I decided to take 12.5mg, while B and T opted for 10mg (all doses determined by dissolving 100mg in 100ml of distilled water). The chronology is approximate as at the peak, time became a difficult concept.
9:30pm (t +0:00)
We all consumed our doses on fairly empty stomachs. The solution had an unpleasant bitter taste, but did not linger.
10:00 (t +0:30)
T noted ‘something’, but could not say what, only that he thought the effects were beginning.
10:45 (t +1:15)
At this point all three of us were beginning to notice fleeting visual effects in the periphery of our vision. T also commented that he was experiencing some amphetamine type stimulation.
11:00 (t +1:30)
Effects definitely developing, somewhat like mescaline, but over a shorter timescale. As I felt very comfortable with the effects so far, I opted to take a 5mg booster dose. B took another 2.5mg , but T decided not to take an additional dose as he felt nauseous and slightly anxious due to the stimulant effects.
11:10 (t +1:40)
T rushed to bathroom and began vomiting. This continued for aprox. 10 mins. He stated that the stimulant side was making him feel very uncomfortable, so I suggested that we take a walk outside to get some fresh air and help dissapate any excess energy.
11:30 (t +2:00)
After taking 15 mins to roll a spliff with some skunk (thought it would help T’s nausea) we went outside for a walk in a nearby park. Even though it was very cold for this time of year in the north of England, none of us seemed to notice it. B began marching out in front and generally behaving like an excited teenager (he is 50 and generally lags behind if walking anywhere as a group). T appeared to be benefiting and I slowly began to feel as if something ‘magical’ was about to happen (at the time I remember saying that I felt like we were in a Lord of the Rings type environment). Once we were off the footpath and into the park, I lit the spliff and we smoked it while walking around the park. After about 5 mins, T said he felt very anxious, and could we go back inside.
11:40 (t +2:10)
T became very agitated as B could not find his key to his front door, and after a couple of mins searching his pockets, he eventually found his keys and opened the door. By this time, T had started complaining of feeling like he was receiving electric shocks, and was obviously very anxious.
12:00 (t +2:30)
B had put some chill-out music (Osric Tentacles), but T was becoming more anxious, so the music was turned off and T asked if he could lie down in a room with the lights off. Although I sat with him for a few minutes, I felt that I was not much help as I felt extremely calm, and could not empathize with his anxious state. Eventually he said he felt it would be OK for me to leave him for a while. As I went into the main room, I said I would check back in 10 to 15 mins if he wanted. He said he felt as if he was through the worst of it, and wanted to be alone for a while.
12:20 (t +2:50) aprox
By now the booster dose I had taken was working and I felt a state of total serenity come over me, and began to experience what I can only describe as the connection between all living things (not just the three of us, but also with B’s plants) and that God, not the Devil, was in the detail. When I was a child, I had, as a lot of children do, thought of god as a bearded man who was up above, but in my teenage years had rejected the idea (along with the whole Catholic church) as being a way of social control; but now I realized that God (for the want of a better word) was what had organized the chaos of the Universe into stars, planets and eventually life, leading eventually to us as a self aware lifeform. It also explained why God did not prevent terrible things from happening. God is neither good nor evil, God just is (as an agent of organization) or to put it another way Nature was not an agent of God, it is God.
Over the next 2 hours I was deeply engrossed in organizing these thoughts in a coherent manner. During this time, T had re-entered the room and was now feeling much calmer, and had been telling B about what he had experienced.
2:30 (t +5:00)
At this point, I felt that I was past the plateau and was beginning to come down, but began noticing the walls, which looked as if they had an animated watermark moving just below the surface. I noted that the winamp visualization running on the computer would suddenly exhibit an exaggerated 3D quality. I also spent this time trying to explain the insights I had experienced to B and T. This continued, along with smoking several spliffs, until about 5:30 (t +8:00) when I got comfortable on a sofa and fell into a light sleep until about 10:00.
Summary
Although I did not experience the ‘coat-hanger’ grin anywhere near as much as with mescaline, I feel that I had what can only be described as an enlightening experience. I feel that I must also state that 2C-E is a two-edged sword as T stated that he had come close to a panic attack, and would not take 2C-E again. All in all, this is an extremely deep and powerful psychedelic, capable of producing a state of mind comparable with high dose LSD (but without the ‘edge of insanity’ feelings the LSD can produce) and is definitely not a recreational party drug. Due to the depth of the trip, 2C-E is for me, something that lends itself to use only once or twice a year
Be happy and enlightened, but take care in all things

I was involved in coding and research for the Accessible Large-Print Listening and Talking E-book project at the Technologies for Aging Gracefully lab.
The ALLT e-book is an iPad app that builds on the capabilities of standard e-book readers by adding the ability to synchronize an audio recording of a user reading with the text. Originally conceived to enable visually impaired users to re-experience a reading session with a loved one through replaying the recording, ALLT has been expanded to serve the needs of individuals with a wide variety of sensory and fine motor impairments. Evaluation of the platform with a pilot participant with Multiple Sclerosis led to an improved interface and contributed to our understanding of accessibility in reading.


AUTO.MASTER
Section: File Formats (5)Updated: 11 Apr 2006
Index Return to Main Contents
NAME
auto.master - Master Map for automounterDESCRIPTION
The auto.master map is consulted to set up automount managed mount points when the autofs(8) script is invoked or the automount(8) program is run. Each line describes a mount point and refers to an autofs map describing file systems to be mounted under the mount point. The default location of the master map is /etc/auto.master but an alternate name may be given on the command line when running the automounter and the default master map may changed by setting the MASTER_MAP_NAME configuration variable in /etc/sysconfig/autofs. If the master map name has no path then the system Name Service Switch configuration will be consulted and each of the sources searched in line with the rules given in the Name Service Switch configuration. Access to mounts in maps is governed by a key. For direct maps the mount point is always specified as: /- and the key used within the direct map is the full path to the mount point. For indirect maps access is by using the path scheme: /mount-point/key where mount-point is one of the entries listed in the master map. The key is a single directory component and is matched against entries in the map given in the entry (See autofs(5)). Additionally, a map may be included from its source as if it were itself present in the master map by including a line of the form: + [maptype,format:]map[options] and automount(8) will process the map according to the specification described below for map entries.FORMAT
Master map entries have three fields separated by an arbitrary number of spaces or tabs. Lines beginning with # are comments. The first field is the mount point described above and the second field is the name of the map to be consulted for the mount point followed by the third field which contains options to be applied to all entries in the map. The format of a master map entry is:- mount-point [map-type[,format]:]map [options]
- mount-point
- Base location for the autofs filesystem to be mounted. For indirect maps this directory will be created (as with mkdir -p) and is removed when the autofs filesystem is umounted.
- map-type
-
Type of map used for this mount point. The following are
valid map types:
-
- file
- The map is a regular text file.
- program
- The map is an executable program, which is passed a key on the command line and returns an entry (everything besides the key) on stdout if successful.
- yp
- The map is a NIS (YP) database.
- nisplus
- The map is a NIS+ database.
- hesiod
- The map is a hesiod database whose filsys entries are used for maps.
- ldap or ldaps
- The map is stored in an LDAP directory. If ldaps is used the appropriate certificate must be configured in the LDAP client.
- multi
- This map type allows the specification of multiple maps separated by "--". These maps are searched in order to resolve key lookups.
-
- format
- Format of the map data; currently the only formats recognized are sun, which is a subset of the Sun automounter map format, and hesiod, for hesiod filesys entries. If the format is left unspecified, it defaults to sun for all map types except hesiod.
- map
- Name of the map to use. This is an absolute UNIX pathname for maps of types file or program, and the name of a database in the case for maps of type yp, nisplus, or hesiod or the dn of an LDAP entry for maps of type ldap.
- options
-
Any remaining command line arguments without leading dashes (-) are
taken as options (-o) to mount. Arguments with leading
dashes are considered options for the maps.
The sun format supports the following options:
-
- -Dvariable=value
- Replace variable with value in map substitutions.
- -strict
- Treat errors when mounting file systems as fatal. This is important when multiple file systems should be mounted (`multimounts'). If this option is given, no file system is mounted at all if at least one file system can't be mounted.
- nosymlink
- This is an autofs specific option that is a pseudo mount option and so is given without a leading dash. Historically this option was used to prevent symlinking of local NFS mounts. Nowadays it can be used to prevent bind mounting of local NFS filesystems as well. If you need to prevent bind mounting for only specific entrys in a map then this can be done by adding the "port=" mount option to the given entries.
- -r, --random-multimount-selection
- Enables the use of ramdom selection when choosing a host from a list of replicated servers. This option is applied to this mount only, overriding the global setting that may be specified on the command line.
- -w, --use-weight-only
- Use only specified weights for server selection where more than one server is specified in the map entry. If no server weights are given then each available server will be tried in the order listed, within proximity.
- -n, --negative-timeout <seconds>
- Set the timeout for caching failed key lookups. This option can be used to override the global default given either on the command line or in the configuration.
-
GENERAL SYSTEM DEFAULTS CONFIGURATION
The default value of several general settings may be changed in the configuration file /etc/sysconfig/autofs. They are:- TIMEOUT
- sets the default mount timeout (program default 600).
- NEGATIVE_TIMEOUT
- Set the default timeout for caching failed key lookups (program default 60). If the equivalent command line option is given it will override this setting.
- MOUNT_WAIT
- Set the default time to wait for a response from a spawned mount(8) before sending it a SIGTERM. Note that we still need to wait for the RPC layer to timeout before the sub-process exits so this isn't ideal but it is the best we can do. The default is to wait until mount(8) returns without intervention.
- UMOUNT_WAIT
- Set the default time to wait for a response from a spawned umount(8) before sending it a SIGTERM. Note that we still need to wait for the RPC layer to timeout before the sub-process exits so this isn't ideal but it is the best we can do.
- BROWSE_MODE
- Maps are browsable by default (program default "yes").
- MOUNT_NFS_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL
- Specify the default protocol used by mount.nfs(8) (program default 3). Since we can't identify this default automatically we need to set it in the autofs configuration. This option will only make a difference for replicated map entries as availability probing isn't used for single host map entries.
- APPEND_OPTIONS
- Determine whether global options, given on the command line or per mount in the master map, are appended to map entry options or if the map entry options replace the global options (program default "yes", append options).
- LOGGING
- set default log level "none", "verbose" or "debug" (program default "none").
BUILTIN MAP -hosts
If "-hosts" is given as the map then accessing a key under the mount point which corresponds to a hostname will allow access to the exports of that host. For example, with an entry in the master map of /net -hosts accessing /net/myserver will mount exports from myserver on directories below /net/myserver. NOTE: mounts done from a hosts map will be mounted with the "nosuid,nodev,intr" options unless overridden by explicily specifying the "suid", "dev" or "nointr" options in the master map entry.LDAP MAPS
If the map type ldap is specified the mapname is of the form [//servername/]dn, where the optional servername is the name of the LDAP server to query, and dn is the Distinguished Name of a subtree to search for map entries. The old style ldap:servername:mapname is also understood. Alternatively, the type can be obtained from the Name Service Switch configuration, in which case the map name alone must be given. If no schema is set in the autofs configuration then autofs will check each of the commonly used schema for a valid entry and if one is found it will used for subsequent lookups. There are three common schemas in use:- nisMap
- Entries in the nisMap schema are nisObject objects in the specified subtree, where the cn attribute is the key (the wildcard key is "/"), and the nisMapEntry attribute contains the information used by the automounter.
- automountMap
- The automountMap schema has two variations that differ in the attribute used for the map key. Entries in the automountMap schema are automount objects in the specified subtree, where the cn or automountKey attribute (depending on local usage) is the key (the wildcard key is "/"), and the automountInformation attribute contains the information used by the automounter. Note that the cn attribute is case insensitive. The object classes and attributes used for accessing automount maps in LDAP can be changed by setting entries in the autofs configuration located in /etc/sysconfig/autofs.
- NOTE:
- If a schema is given in the configuration then all the schema configuration values must be set, any partial schema specification will be ignored. The configuration settings available are:
- LDAP_TIMEOUT
- Set the network response timeout (default 8). Set timeout value for the synchronous API calls. The default is the LDAP library default of an infinite timeout.
- LDAP_NETWORK_TIMEOUT
- Set the network response timeout (default 8).
- LDAP_URI
- A space seperated list of server uris of the form <proto>://<server>[/] where <proto> can be ldap or ldaps. The option can be given multiple times. Map entries that include a server name override this option and it is then not used. Default is an empty list in which case either the server given in a map entry or the LDAP configured default is used. This uri list is read at startup and whenever the daemon receives a HUP signal. This configuration option can also be used to request autofs lookup SRV RRs for a domain of the form <proto>:///[<domain dn>]. Note that a trailing "/" is not allowed when using this form. If the domain dn is not specified the dns domain name (if any) is used to construct the domain dn for the SRV RR lookup. The server list returned from an SRV RR lookup is refreshed according to the minimum ttl found in the SRV RR records or after one hour, whichever is less.
- SEARCH_BASE
- The base dn to use when searching for amap base dn. This entry may be given multiple times and each will be checked for a map base dn in the order they occur in the configuration. The search base list is read at startup and whenever the daemon recieves a HUP signal.
- MAP_OBJECT_CLASS
- The map object class. In the nisMap schema this corresponds to the class nisMap and in the automountMap schema it corresponds to the class automountMap.
- ENTRY_OBJECT_CLASS
- The map entry object class. In the nisMap schema this corresponds to the class nisObject and in the automountMap schema it corresponds to the class automount.
- MAP_ATTRIBUTE
- The attribute used to identify the name of the map to which this entry belongs. In the nisMap schema this corresponds to the attribute nisMapName and in the automountMap schema it corresponds to the attribute ou or automountMapName.
- ENTRY_ATTRIBUTE
- The attribute used to identify a map key. In the nisMap schema this corresponds to the attribute cn and in the automountMap schema it corresponds to the attribute automountKey.
- VALUE_ATTRIBUTE
- The attribute used to identify the value of the map entry. In the nisMap schema this corresponds to the attribute nisMapEntry and in the automountMap schema it corresponds to the attribute automountInformation.
- NOTE:
- It is essential that entries use class and attribute in a consistent manner for correct operation of autofs. For example mixing cn and automountKey attributes in automount schema map entries won't work as expected.
LDAP AUTHENTICATION, ENCRYPTED AND CERTIFIED CONNECTIONS
LDAP authenticated binds, TLS encrypted connections and certification may be used by setting appropriate values in the autofs authentication configuration file and configuring the LDAP client with appropriate settings. The default location of this file is /etc/autofs_ldap_auth.conf. If this file exists it will be used to establish whether TLS or authentication should be used. An example of this file is:
-
<?xml version="1.0" ?> <autofs_ldap_sasl_conf usetls="yes" tlsrequired="no" authrequired="no" authtype="DIGEST-MD5" user="xyz" secret="abc" />
If TLS encryption is to be used the location of the Certificate Authority certificate must be set within the LDAP client configuration in order to validate the server certificate. If, in addition, a certified connection is to be used then the client certificate and private key file locations must also be configured within the LDAP client. In OpenLDAP these may be configured in the ldap.conf file or in the per-user configuration. For example it may be sensible to use the system wide configuration for the location of the Certificate Authority certificate and set the location of the client certificate and private key in the per-user configuration. The location of these files and the configuration entry requirements is system dependent so the documentation for your installation will need to be consulted to get further information. See autofs_ldap_auth.conf(5) for more information.
EXAMPLE
-
/- auto.data /home /etc/auto.home /mnt yp:mnt.map
This will generate two mountpoints for /home and /mnt and install direct mount triggers for each entry in the direct mount map auto.data. All accesses to /home will lead to the consultation of the map in /etc/auto.home and all accesses to /mnt will consult the NIS map mnt.map. All accesses to paths in the map auto.data will trigger mounts when they are accessed and the Name Service Switch configuration will be used to locate the source of the map auto.data.

Less Business, More Family
Here at TAPS, we believe that customers should be more than just customers. We want to create a business with loyal customers rather than more. The quality over the quantity, family over dollar signs. Since we're still a business however, we also value our family's money and time. We do the best we can to make sure our people are satisfied with what they're paying for. Efficency is key to any great business so we do our best to make sure that no one is waiting around in line for too long and that all appointments are done on time.
As an immigrant, hair has beem a way for my father to adjust to life in America. When I think of something that connects people, I think of hair. Everyone gets their hair cut, no matter what background they may come from. I believe that we're running more than just a business at TAPS.
When I was younger, I used to work at my parents' nail salon every summer. I wanted to own a business that could surpass theirs which led to the birth of TAPS.
One of TAPS' core ideologies is to provide our customers with a comfortable atmosphere. As the company mascot, I work hard to maintain that atmosphere while also acting as a source of friendliness and calmness for the customers when business calls for it.


In the future the internet will strangle out many colleges and universities. Turns out it doesn’t actually cost $50,000/yr to learn ancient Greek.  The other thing they don’t teach you is that roughly 1 in every 2 kids will fail out.  Assloads of loans.
What will stick around?
Demonstratable skills. Comepetence. That’s what will matter. Because the internet will kill the barrier between just about anything. You’ll have online universities with one on one learning with whoever you want. They’ll get here, and they’ll be far cheaper than what you pay now.
In the job market what people look for is the ability to work as a team, work ethic, and necessary skills to get a job done. It’s possible that this world will keep having a broken economy such that one currency is worth 100x more than many others and that you’re forced to use the currency of the geographic region that you live in, but I suspect that will die too.
What I am saying is that in the not too distant future you’re not gonna be able to just pay some poor 3rd world kid chump change to do your menial tasks because internet money is gonna change that.
What about repitition?
There are menial tasks that need to get done a million times a day. Someone has to do them. It’s gonna be too expensive to hire even 3rd worlders, so you gotta do it yourself or automate it. I think it’s gonna be automation. That means programming. So, I’m working on getting my kids to learn to program.
Code.org
Here’s a screenshot of an activity my 5 year old is doing. She’s arranging those blocks to help get her little angry bird to the piggy. it starts with some really easy stuff, it’s designed for readers and non-readers depending which lessons they work on, and it’s teaching her some very basics of code.
The blocks actually represent lines of code. As things get more complicated they involve more types of code and the task is more complex.
Getting them to do it
My wife and I are still debating this, but I want to pay my kids small amounts of money. They enjoy code, but when they are incentivized to code on top of that it’s the easiest thing in the world. Wanna do this? YES!!! YAYYY!! WOOHOOO! they say. That’s how I want my kids feeling about this learning because I think it’s the greatest skill I can make them learn as a father.
Today is a holiday.
Happy Turkey Day!

| Deliverable | Customer Cluster Model |
| Machine Learning Task | Clustering |
| Target Variable | N/A Unsupervised Learning |
| Control Metric | Subjective |
This project uses an anonymised excerpt of a retailer dataset to showcase a customer segmentation analysis using K-Means clustering. The goal is to segment customers by both aggregate sales patterns and specific items purchased and to provide more tailored services and improve marketing to customers based on segments.
Notebook 1 shows feature engineering through rolling up transaction-level data. A second notebook shows dimensionality reduction using Principle Component Analysis and finally a K-Means clustering analysis of the engineered dataset features.
Rand Index scores are used to compare the similarity of clusters engineered against different feature sets. This is an unsupervised learning task and subjective client-led asessment of cluster model usefulness is necessary.

How to make handouts and tipsheets
Is this a little too meta? Maybe. But not everyone has put together training materials for their colleagues before, and we’re trying to be as helpful as possible here. So here are a few tips for making effective handouts and tipsheets:
- Name your files the way you would write an SEO headline, which is to say, name your files the way you would search for them if you had a question. This document is called Tipsheet: How to Make Handouts
- If you are explaining something technical, consider using step-by-step screenshots. You can use the tool called Skitch to easily make screenshots from the web and add arrows or text to them. For example, if someone needs to click somewhere, circle that area on the image.
- If you’re going to share a large number of examples from other newsrooms, be sure to include links in addition to screenshots so that your team can explore the examples on their own.
- Think about how people will primarily be accessing your handouts or tipsheets: are they going to be out in the field and looking on their phones? Do slides make more sense for certain topics? Are you developing more of a guide (lengthy, many pages) or a tipsheet (concise, one page)?
- Consider how you will make this resource available to people on your staff: saved to a Trello board, saved to a shared computer drive, uploaded to a company intranet/shared Google Drive or Dropbox, emailed, pinned in a key Slack channel, etc.
- At the end of each tipsheet or handout, add your name and the date that you most recently updated the document. This will help remind people that you did this work, and that you can be consulted further regarding this topic. It also helps people to know whether the document is out of date and needs to be updated.
This resource is part of the OpenNews After Party toolkit, developed by Emma Carew Grovum. It’s meant to help you get the most out of SRCCON—or any journalism event—and share what you learn with your own organization. The toolkit is licensed CC BY-SA 4.0, and we’d love to see you use or adapt it for your own event—all we need is a link back here.
We’d also be thrilled to hear how you put what you learn into practice, so please tweet us at #OpenNewsAfterParty, or if you have any questions, let us know!

Participation Officers are encouraged to be innovative and collaborate with other ministries and stakeholders to tackle complex issues that often don't have a single onwer.
Since October 1st 2016, when Audrey Tang became the Digital Minister without portfolio, she started PDIS and called for middle to senior civil servants who are familiar with planning, communication, and digital tools to be part of the fixed group, we later called this group the Participation Officer Network. The PO Network serves to drive cultural change; it plays a key role in Taiwan’s Open Government scene. POs are deeply involved in the conversation with civic society and governmental divisions, by tackling cross-ministerial issues with wider stakeholders openly and creatively. PO network is a network of around 70 civil servants in the central government.

Jay’s Blog: Writeup for n00b15CTF
This is a collection of hints for all the problems in the recently conducted Capture The Flag (CTF) contest conducted by SDSLabs as a way to get n00bs (beginners) to have a taste of the beautiful world of hacking. It was a pretty fun contest even though it was quite easy.
Test
Use a SHA256 tool. My favourite is to just search for “SHA256 STRING_TO_BE_SHA256” on my default search engine (www.duckduckgo.com)
Location-51
There is a redirect occuring here from http://hack.bckdr.in/LOCATION-51/index.html to http://hack.bckdr.in/LOCATION-51/trap.html Stop this redirect, and read the source of index.html The javascript there gives away the flag
Hidden flag - Easy
Using the file linux command, we find out that it is an ELF binary, but running it gives nothing. However, running strings on it gives away the flag.
Search
The zip file contains a .txt file which does not seem normal text, so we run a file on it. This says that it is jpeg, so change it to .jpg and open it. It is a QR code. Decode this using some online tool (just search for “QR code decode online” for a large number of free tools) and get a link. The link has the flag.
Lost
The message says Console, so open up console in Firefox. The message then tells you to POST data to a link. Going to this link directly does nothing, but sending it any random POST data (using HackBar addon in Firefox for example) gives the flag.
Hidden flag - Medium
Analyzing the file with IDA Pro shows that there is a function called print_flags() which is not called inside main(). Running this function should print the flag. We can do this by attaching gdb to the binary, breaking the execution and running the print_flags() function.
Clutter
Extracting the file and analyzing with Wireshark shows that there is too much to work with. But exporting all the files and then running strings on it would probably work. However, filtering this is a pain, so I just ran a grep for flag and the answer will be visible near a pastebin title.
No - Signal
Use GIMP or Photoshop to add the images. The flag should be obvious then.
Sound
Slow down and reverse the sound wave using Audacity. Listen to it and it should be obvious what the flag is.
Sequel
Looking at the code, it seems like a SQL injection can be done here. Downloading the database.sdb file and rewriting the source code to start throwing data from database, you realize that there is no user sdslabs in the database. This makes it obvious that you need to add the user. The following username virtually that: ‘ UNION SELECT ‘sdslabs’,’sdslabs’,’sdslabs’,’sdslabs’,’0c4ea8f5b344600f78516334254e9e085f2225a42a0bb18fa8bd774589f1ca19’ UNION SELECT * FROM users WHERE ‘0’=’1. Note that this query will not work directly, the password will have to be set accordingly.
Undisputed
The file is a ext4 filesystem (use file command if you don’t trust the extension). Mount this in linux using the mount command (read man mount to know how) and then open the file inside to see the flag.
Did you find any other cool/new ways of solving any of these tasks? If so, leave a comment below.


Irish-American congressman Peter King will not stand for re-election in 2020
by CLAIRE SIMPSONA US CONGRESSMAN who acted as a go-between for Bill Clinton and Gerry Adams during the peace process will not seek re-election in 2020.
New York congressman Peter King said in a Facebook post he wanted "flexibility to spend more time" with his children and grandchildren.
The 75-year-old Republican has spent 28 years in Congress. He is known for his hard-line stance on immigration and crime.
A proud Irish-American, he was closely linked to Irish republican fundraising group Noraid in the 1980s.
In 2011, King likened the IRA to the African National Congress and the Zionist Irgun in Israel.
"The fact is, the IRA never attacked the United States. And my loyalty is to the United States," he said.
He described the Troubles as “a dirty war on both sides” .
In the 1990s, he played a key role in peace talks which led to the Good Friday agreement, acting as a go-between for President Clinton and then Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams.
In 2009, it was reported that then President Barack Obama offered Mr King the chance to be US ambassador to the Republic but the congressman declined.


Where
Use the WHERE clauses to filter results, there are various helper methods available including whereNot()
, orWhere()
, orWhereNot()
, whereColumn()
Method arguments
All where methods have a similar very flexible argument signature, they can be called with strings and some methods accept a callable which is used when nesting where clauses.
Skipping the comparison operator assumes '='
query('movies')->where('title', 'The Lego Movie');
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`title` = 'The Lego Movie'
Any of the normal comparison operators may be used including =, <>, !=, >, >=, <, <= or LIKE:
query('movies')->where('title', 'LIKE', 'The Lego Movie%');
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`title` LIKE 'The Lego Movie%'
You may call where()
multiple times, they will produce AND where statements:
query('movies')->where('year', 2020)->where('rating', '>', 8);
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`year` = 2020 AND `movies`.`rating` > 8
You may nest where()
clauses:
query('movies')->where(function($query) {
$query->where('year', 2020);
$query->orWhere('rating', '>', 8);
});
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE (`movies`.`year` = 2020 OR `movies`.`rating` > 8)
As deep as necessary:
query('movies')->where(function($query) {
$query->where('year', 2020);
$query->whereNot(function($query) {
$query->where('rating', '<', 2);
$query->orWhere('rating', '>', 8);
});
});
/*
SELECT *
FROM `movies`
WHERE
(
`movies`.`year`='2020' AND NOT
(
`movies`.`rating`<'2' OR
`movies`.`rating`>'8'
)
)
Where Between
Use the WHERE BETWEEN clause to check if a column is between two other values. The helper methods available include whereNotBetween()
, orWhereBetween()
and orWhereNotBetween()
query('movies')->whereBetween('year', [2010, 2020]);
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`year` BETWEEN 2010 AND 2020
query('movies')->whereBetween('year', [2010, 2020])->orWhereBetween('year', [1990, 2000]);
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`year` BETWEEN 2010 AND 2020 OR `movies`.`year` BETWEEN 1990 AND 2000
Where Column
This is not an SQL construct, however we use it in Query to compare two columns to enable the sanity checking of both table/column references.
Skipping the comparison operator assumes '=':
query('movies')->join('directors')->whereColumn('director', 'directors'.'name');
// SELECT * FROM `movies` JOIN `directors` ON `movies`.`id`=`directors`.`movie_id` WHERE `movies`.`director` = `directors`.`name`
Any of the normal comparison operators may be used including =, <>, !=, >, >=, <, <= or LIKE:
query('movies')->join('directors')->whereColumn('director', '<>', 'directors'.'name');
// SELECT * FROM `movies` JOIN `directors` ON `movies`.`id`=`directors`.`movie_id` WHERE `movies`.`director` <> `directors`.`name`
Where Exists
The WHERE EXISTS clause will return results from the query if the whereExists()
subquery returns one or more rows.
query('movies')
->where('year', 2020)
->whereExists(function($query) {
$query->from('tags')
->join('movies__tags')
->whereColumn('movies.id', '=', 'movies__tags.movies_id')
->where('name', 'Must see');
});
/*
-- A slightly convoluted example
SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`year` = 2020 AND EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM `tags`
JOIN `movies__tags` ON `movies`.`id`=`movies__tags`.`movies_id`
WHERE
`movies`.`id`=`movies__tags`.`movies_id` AND
`tags`.`name`='Must see'
);
Where In
Use the WHERE IN clause to check if a column contains any value in a range of values. The shortcut methods available include whereNotIn()
, orWhereIn()
and orWhereNotIn()
query('movies')->whereIn('year', [2010, 2012, 2014]);
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`year` IN (2010, 2012, 2014)
The whereIn()
method also supports nested queries:
query('movies')->whereIn('id', function($query) {
$query->select('movie_id')
->from('best_of')
->whereIn('genre', ['sci-fi','comedy']);
});
// SELECT * FROM `movies` WHERE `movies`.`id` IN (SELECT `best_of`.`movie_id` FROM `best_of` WHERE `best_of`.`genre` IN ('sci-fi', 'comedy'));
Where Null
Use the WHERE NULL clause to check if a column value is null.

Group Progress
We definitely fell behind this past week when it comes to how much we wanted to have done already. However, we have been able to get the phase vocoder working more smoothly and sound better. In addition, we have figured out the problem with the LSM9DS0 and Bluefruit and can now get correct data through the Arduino IDE. We did want to already have the data on the phone, but we were not able to do so this week.
Individual Progress
Robert Keller: Did more research on phase vocoders in general and learned that most phase vocoders only stretch or compress songs by a maximum of 30% (aka from 70% slowdown to 130% speedup). Because of this, he adjusted the algorithm to only fit this range to make the music sound relatively good. Also, he was able to change the algorithm to allow the altered music to gradually make a tempo change instead of it abruptly changing by adding an extra parameter to the function that tells it how much it should start changing.
Julian Trulear: Figured out the connection problem between the Bluefruit and the LSM9DS0. Was able to get the Bluefruit to read off data from the LSM9DS0 and display that on the Arduino Monitor. Is now working on how to get that data into Android Studio to be able to display it on the phone.
David Yuan: Mainly worked with Julian to figure out the issue with the Bluefruit and LSM9DS0. While Julian was working with connection issues, he worked on getting the necessary buttons and layout on our app to have it ready to go when necessary. Is starting to figure out how the first 3 modes of our project will be implemented in our app.
Goals for Next Week
Have the phase vocoder pretty much completed with at least the altered song sounding relatively good and it being as real time as possible. Also convert it into C++ from the Matlab code. Have the data from the Bluefruit be displayed on our Android app through Bluetooth so there are no wires necessary. Have the UI of our Android app completed so that there is no delay from getting our data into Android Studio and then putting it in our app.


PART I. GENERAL PROVISIONS
[§414D-1] Short title. This chapter shall be known and may be cited as the "Hawaii Nonprofit Corporations Act". [L 2001, c 105, pt of §1]


Thanks for buying my theme. This documentation provides a basic informations about theme and it's elements.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my e-mail<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Widget boxes that contains the various elements can be very easily created. Basic syntax looks like below:

Title

As you see, the box is a two divs with classes widget-title
and widget-content
wrapped in a one parent div with class widget-box
The title box can contain a icon placed on the left relative to the title

element. Just add
right before the title text and replace the class of i
element to one of you choose. For all available icons please reffer to the bootstrap documentation.
The theme contains an integrated form validation plugin. To use them, add below code to the bottom of the page:

The basic usage is very simple. Here is a basic example:

<form id="register_form" name="register_form" action="auth.php" method="post"> <input type="text" name="user_name" id="user_name" value="" /> <input type="text" name="user_email" id="user_email" value="" /> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Register" /> </form>
Part $("#register_form").validate({ });
is reliable for initializing the validation on the provided form id and contains all options that controls the validation.
Next part: rules:{ }
is reliable for validation rules.
Next part: messages:{ }
is reliable for messages that is shown when error occurs.
And the errorClass: "help-inline"
is a class that be added to element controlled by errorElement: "span"
when error occurs.
For full documentation please reffer to the plugin wiki page
The theme contains an integrated charts generating plugin called Flot. This plugin can be used for generating charts and graph from any kind of data.
Full documentation about usage can be found at project page.
The next available javascript plugin is datatables. DataTables is a plug-in for the jQuery Javascript library. It is a highly flexible tool, based upon the foundations of progressive enhancement, which will add advanced interaction controls to any HTML table. Some of the features:
Full documentation about usage can be found on plugin homepage.
The form wizard plugin is a jQuery plugin which can be used to create wizard like page flows for forms without having to reload the page in between wizard steps.
The plugin is unobtrusive and gives the developer great freedom on how they set up the flow of the different steps in their wizards, as the plugin supports creating specific routes in the form; depending on the user input.
Examples and instruction how to use a plugin can be found at project home page.
The last available plugin is FullCalendar. FullCalendar is a jQuery plugin that provides a full-sized, drag & drop. It uses AJAX to fetch events on-the-fly for each month and is easily configured to use your own feed format

Working with factors in R can be frustrating. John Mount, puts it well by saying that factors are not first-class citizens in R. Even the most basic code often behaves in an unexpected manner and without any warning. Let’s start off with a simple example - creating two factor vectors and combining them together - that illustrates some of the issues:
lower <- factor(letters[1:3], levels = letters[2:4])
upper <- factor(LETTERS[1:5], levels = LETTERS[1:4])
(combined <- c(lower, upper))
## Warning: the following levels were removed:
## NA
## [1] <NA> b c A B C D <NA>
## Levels: A b B c C D
One can note the following issues:
factor()
does not yield an error when NA
s are created silently, neither when levels do not match x nor when too few levels are specified.c()
is used to combine the two, the levels of the two elements (which are just attributes to integer vectors) are not conveyed, R simply combines the underlying integers from each vector.lower
and upper
, so a 1 in the combined vector could be either b
or an A
from one of the original vectors.The goal of the refactor
package is to make working with factors more natural and fun by providing
cfactor
for factor
to enhance control at the point of factor creation.index_cfactor
to decode numerical data into (ordered) factors given the encoding.ordered
and factor
) where current methods are not tailored for categorical data.cfactor
cfactor
has been defined to give warnings in cases when empty factors are created from strings or when existing strings are not preserved. Essentially, it is a wrapper for factor()
, and the ‘c’ stands for enhanced control. It also has improved level order detection based on numerical values within strings that is superior to the way factor
assesses this order in certain cases.
library(refactor)
string <- c("a", "b", "c")
cfactor(string, levels = c("b", "c", "d"))
## Warning: the following levels were empty:
## d
## Warning: the following levels were removed:
## a
## [1] <NA> b c
## Levels: b c d
The default behavior of factor
(if levels are not explicitly supplied), is to first convert x
to character, and then to take the unique values and sort the characters (sort(unique(as.character(x)))
). This approach is fine if the string ordering was the same as ordering the numbers within the string, but in general this is not the case, as the following examples will illustrate:
A “clean” example
With all numbers having the same number of digits, factor
can detect the order correctly.
easy_to_dectect <- c("EUR 11 - EUR 20", "EUR 1 - EUR 10", "EUR 21 - EUR 22")
factor(easy_to_dectect, ordered = TRUE) # correctly detects level
## [1] EUR 11 - EUR 20 EUR 1 - EUR 10 EUR 21 - EUR 22
## Levels: EUR 1 - EUR 10 < EUR 11 - EUR 20 < EUR 21 - EUR 22
A more “dirty” example
However, in the general case, where number of digits might be destinct, this does not work anymore. The category “EUR 100 - 101” comes second, but it should be last.
hard_to_dectect <- c("EUR 21 - EUR 22", "EUR 100 - 101",
"EUR 1 - EUR 10", "EUR 11 - EUR 20")
factor(hard_to_dectect, ordered = TRUE)
## [1] EUR 21 - EUR 22 EUR 100 - 101 EUR 1 - EUR 10 EUR 11 - EUR 20
## 4 Levels: EUR 1 - EUR 10 < EUR 100 - 101 < ... < EUR 21 - EUR 22
cfactor
detects levels using regular expressions. Concretely, it extracts the substrings preceding sep
, removes everything except digits and the decimal point in x
and orders the remaining numbers to find the order of the levels.
cfactor(hard_to_dectect, ordered = TRUE, sep = "-")
## [1] EUR 21 - EUR 22 EUR 100 - 101 EUR 1 - EUR 10 EUR 11 - EUR 20
## 4 Levels: EUR 1 - EUR 10 < EUR 11 - EUR 20 < ... < EUR 100 - 101
This detection algorithm can be turned off and the default ordering of factor
can be applied by setting the sep
argument to NULL
. Also, in the absence of any numbers, the default ordering of factor
is applied.
identical(
cfactor(hard_to_dectect, ordered = TRUE, sep = NULL),
factor(hard_to_dectect, ordered = TRUE)
)
## [1] TRUE
When creating a factor
you sometimes want to label that data, that is, assign a label to each value supplied in x
. A situation to avoid is using labels that are identical to its underlaying value for some but not all levels.
cfactor(x = c("a", "b", "c"), levels = c("a", "b", "c"), labels = c("a", "letter b", "b"))
## Warning in cfactor(x = c("a", "b", "c"), levels = c("a", "b", "c"), labels = c("a", : Some values now used for the labels existed in the data vector 'x' already:
## 'b' is now represented with 'letter b', 'b' now represents 'c'
## 'a' still represents 'a'
## [1] a letter b b
## Levels: a letter b b
The outcome of this is kind of messy. Whereas factor
lets you do that without returing any warning, cfactor
will issue a such to inform about the intersection.
In adition, a second warning that indicates that a
is choosen as a representation of a
itself is issued. In a context where data are given labels distinct from their values, which is the whole point of labeling, this in many cases proabably not what the programmer wanted to see happening.
index_cfactor
If data is encoded, the labels
argument of factor()
can be used to label the data, which is a common data pre-processing step. This works the same as with cfactor()
. Here, we want to give an example where the relationship b eteween the encoding and the label is stored in a data.frame
, e.g. after it was imported from a spread sheet.
data <- sample(x = 1:10, size = 20, replace = TRUE)
index <- data.frame(encoding = 1:10,
label = letters[1:10])
cfactor(data, levels = index$encoding, labels = index$label)
## Warning: the following levels were empty:
## 2
## 5
## [1] g f g f i h i a i j f d h f g i f c j i
## Levels: a b c d e f g h i j
In a real-world situation, it is likely that a lot of variables have to be decoded. index_cfactor
was created to assist with this task. First, we need some sample data.
data <- data.frame(var1 = sample(x = 1:10, size = 20, replace = TRUE),
var2 = rep(1:2, 20),
var3 = sample(20),
var4 = 2,
var5 = sample(row.names(USArrests), size = 20),
stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
head(data)
## var1 var2 var3 var4 var5
## 1 3 1 1 2 Wyoming
## 2 5 2 12 2 Ohio
## 3 8 1 5 2 Hawaii
## 4 2 2 16 2 Indiana
## 5 2 1 14 2 North Dakota
## 6 2 2 11 2 Rhode Island
index <- data.frame(var = rep(paste0("var", 1:3), c(10, 2, 20)),
encoding = c(1:10, 1:2, 1:20),
label = c(letters[1:10], c("male", "female"), LETTERS[1:20]))
head(index)
## var encoding label
## 1 var1 1 a
## 2 var1 2 b
## 3 var1 3 c
## 4 var1 4 d
## 5 var1 5 e
## 6 var1 6 f
Now we use index_cfactor
to decode the data.frame
. Note that var4
and var5
are left as is, since no variable encoding for them is defined in index
. Using the ...
argument of index_cfactor
, we can pass additional arguments to cfactor
.
final <- head(index_cfactor(data = data, index = index, variable = "var",
ordered = c(TRUE, TRUE, FALSE)))
## Warning: the following levels were empty:
## 4
print(final)
## var1 var2 var3 var4 var5
## 1 c male A 2 Wyoming
## 2 e female L 2 Ohio
## 3 h male E 2 Hawaii
## 4 b female P 2 Indiana
## 5 b male N 2 North Dakota
## 6 b female K 2 Rhode Island
sapply(final, class)
## $var1
## [1] "ordered" "factor"
##
## $var2
## [1] "ordered" "factor"
##
## $var3
## [1] "factor"
##
## $var4
## [1] "numeric"
##
## $var5
## [1] "character"
index_cfactor
converts all columns in data
that have a match in index
to factors with the respective encoding using cfactor
. Further arguments are variable
, label
and encoding
referring to the column names in index that contain the respective information.
Other example strings
## [1] "1 to 4" "5 to 6"
## [1] "1 to 4" "4 to 6"
## [1] "from 1,000 to 2,000" "from 2000 to 4,000"
## [1] "4.0 / 4.1" "4.2 / 4.3"
## [1] "one minute" "three minutes" "1 hour"
Instead of defining completely new functions, we decided to provide some S3 generics to extend the functionality of existing R functions and tailor them so they are better suited for categorical data. Also, a more extensive warning and error behavior than for their base R counterparts is implemented.
cut
Applying cut can result in categorical data, for example if integers are binned or if ordered factor levels are summarized into larger categories.
cut
method for integerscut.default
provides rather inappropriate labels for integer values.
random <- sample(100)
cut.default(random, breaks = seq(0, 100, by = 10))[1:10]
## [1] (10,20] (40,50] (20,30] (60,70] (10,20] (90,100] (30,40]
## [8] (30,40] (80,90] (70,80]
## 10 Levels: (0,10] (10,20] (20,30] (30,40] (40,50] (50,60] ... (90,100]
refactor
extends the S3 method cut
with cut.integer
to provide more natural labels for this data type.
cut(random, breaks = seq(0, 100, by = 10))[1:10]
## [1] 11-20 41-50 21-30 61-70 11-20 91-100 31-40 31-40 81-90 71-80
## Levels: 0-10 11-20 21-30 31-40 41-50 51-60 61-70 71-80 81-90 91-100
The remainder of the section will outline and describe how cut.integer
deviates from the default cut
method.
Creating missing values will yield a warning.
cut(sample(10), breaks = c(0, 3, 5))
## Warning in cut.integer(sample(10), breaks = c(0, 3, 5)): 5 missing values
## generated
## [1] 0-3 <NA> <NA> <NA> 4-5 4-5 0-3 <NA> 0-3 <NA>
## Levels: 0-3 4-5
It is possible to define bins with width 1. This will generate a label with just the value of the integer containted (e.g. 2 instead of 2-2) and issue a warning.
cut(sample(10), breaks = c(1, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10))
## [1] 5-6 1-4 1-4 7-8 7-8 1-4 9 5-6 1-4 10
## Levels: 1-4 5-6 7-8 9 10
Unordered breaks will be ordered before proceeding and a warning will be issued.
cut(sample(10), breaks = c(10, 0, 3))
## Warning in cut.integer(sample(10), breaks = c(10, 0, 3)): breaks were
## unsorted and are now sorted in the following order: 0 3 10
## [1] 0-3 4-10 0-3 4-10 4-10 4-10 4-10 0-3 4-10 4-10
## Levels: 0-3 4-10
Decimal values for breaks
will be rounded to integers and a warning will be issued.
cut(sample(10), breaks = c(1, 2.6, 5.1, 10))
## Warning in cut.integer(sample(10), breaks = c(1, 2.6, 5.1, 10)): When coerced to integers, the following breaks were truncated (rounded down):
## 2.6 to 2
## 5.1 to 5
##
## [1] 1-2 6-10 1-2 6-10 6-10 6-10 3-5 3-5 6-10 3-5
## Levels: 1-2 3-5 6-10
cut
method for ordered factorsThis method allows one to combine the levels of a factor into fewer categories given some break points:
some_letters <- cfactor(letters, ordered = TRUE)
head(cut(some_letters, breaks = c("a", "q", "z"),
labels = c("beginning of the alphabet", "the rest of the alphabeth"),
right = TRUE, include.lowest = TRUE))
## [1] beginning of the alphabet beginning of the alphabet
## [3] beginning of the alphabet beginning of the alphabet
## [5] beginning of the alphabet beginning of the alphabet
## Levels: beginning of the alphabet < the rest of the alphabeth
The purpose of cc
is to combine elements into a vector, just as base c
does. They only differ with regard to factor treatment, for which c
most likely does not return what might be expected.
## [1] a b
## Levels: a b
## Warning: ordering and levels not preserved since levels not identical
## [1] a b
## Levels: a b
cc
can also deal with ordered factors. It is quite verbose in the sense that if the levels and/or the order of the levels do not match exactly, it will issue warnings.
## Warning: ordering and levels not preserved since levels not identical
## [1] a b b c d
## Levels: a b c d
The append function is a simple extension of the base::append()
function, which is slightly refined in order to better handle appending of factors.
As shown in the example below, the base version of append()
converts factors back into their underlying integer representations in the process of combining them:
f <- factor(c('c','a','a',NA,'b','a'), levels= c('a','b','c'))
g <- factor(sample(letters[4:10]), levels = sample(letters[4:10]))
base::append(f, g)
## Warning: the following levels were removed:
## NA
## [1] c a a <NA> b a e g h d f i j
## Levels: a b c d e f g h i j
This is probably not what you’d expect to get. What refactor::append
will give you instead, is this:
refactor::append(f, g)
## Warning: the following levels were removed:
## NA
## [1] c a a <NA> b a e g h d f i j
## Levels: a b c d e f g h i j
It returns a factor, preserves the levels, and also warns you about the NA
value. Hopefully that is more in line with what you wanted.
refactor::append()
will also handle ordered factors, provided that the ordering is consistent. If levels and/or ordering are not consistent, then it will simply fall back to the base method.


22 January 2007
The Egyptian Ministry of Health and Population has announced a new human case of avian influenza A(H5N1) virus infection. The case was confirmed by the Egyptian Central Public Health Laboratory and by the US Naval Medical Research Unit No.3 (NAMRU-3).
The 27-year-old woman from Beni Sweif Governate developed symptoms on 9 January 2007 and died in hospital on 19 January.
Initial investigations indicate the presence of sick and dead poultry at her residence in the days prior to the onset of illness.
Of the 19 cases confirmed to date in Egypt, 11 have been fatal.

BLUE SANDS
Blue mornings, easy breathing, and copious indulgence in hallucinogens.
Hemingway never wrote a treatise on the art of writing fiction. He did, however, leave behind a great many passages in letters, articles and books with opinions and advice on writing. Some of the best of those were assembled in 1984 by Larry W. Phillips into a book, Ernest Hemingway on Writing.
Before he was a big game hunter, before he was a deep-sea fisherman, Ernest Hemingway was a craftsman who would rise very early in the morning and write. His best stories are masterpieces of the modern era, and his prose style is one of the most influential of the 20th century.
I would stand and look out over the roofs of Paris and think, "Do not worry. You have always written before and you will write now. All you have to do is write one true sentence. Write the truest sentence that you know."

CoreAudio-specific PortAudio API extension header file.
Definition in file pa_mac_core.h.
| #define paMacCoreChangeDeviceParameters (0x01) |
Flags The following flags alter the behaviour of PA on the mac platform. they can be ORed together. These should work both for opening and checking a device. Allows PortAudio to change things like the device's frame size, which allows for much lower latency, but might disrupt the device if other programs are using it, even when you are just Querying the device.
Definition at line 154 of file pa_mac_core.h.
| #define paMacCoreConversionQualityMin (0x0100) |
These flags set the SR conversion quality, if required. The wierd ordering allows Maximum Quality to be the default.
Definition at line 163 of file pa_mac_core.h.
| #define paMacCoreFailIfConversionRequired (0x02) |
In combination with the above flag, causes the stream opening to fail, unless the exact sample rates are supported by the device.
Definition at line 159 of file pa_mac_core.h.
| #define paMacCoreMinimizeCPU (0x0101) |
This is a setting to minimize CPU usage, even if that means interrupting the device.
Definition at line 184 of file pa_mac_core.h.
| #define paMacCoreMinimizeCPUButPlayNice (0x0100) |
This is a setting to minimize CPU usage and still play nice.
Definition at line 182 of file pa_mac_core.h.
| #define paMacCorePlayNice (0x00) |
Here are some "preset" combinations of flags (above) to get to some common configurations. THIS IS OVERKILL, but if more flags are added it won't be.This is the default setting: do as much sample rate conversion as possible and as little mucking with the device as possible.
Definition at line 177 of file pa_mac_core.h.
| #define paMacCorePro (0x01) |
This setting is tuned for pro audio apps. It allows SR conversion on input and output, but it tries to set the appropriate SR on the device.
Definition at line 180 of file pa_mac_core.h.
| PaError PaMacCore_GetBufferSizeRange | ( | PaDeviceIndex | device, |
| long * | minBufferSizeFrames, | ||
| long * | maxBufferSizeFrames | ||
| ) |
Retrieve the range of legal native buffer sizes for the specificed device, in sample frames.
| device | The global index of the PortAudio device about which the query is being made. |
| minBufferSizeFrames | A pointer to the location which will receive the minimum buffer size value. |
| maxBufferSizeFrames | A pointer to the location which will receive the maximum buffer size value. |
| const char* PaMacCore_GetChannelName | ( | int | device, |
| int | channelIndex, | ||
| bool | input | ||
| ) |
Returns a statically allocated string with the device's name for the given channel. NULL will be returned on failure.
This function's implemenation is not complete!
| device | The PortAudio device index. |
| channel | The channel number who's name is requested. |
| AudioDeviceID PaMacCore_GetStreamInputDevice | ( | PaStream * | s | ) |
Retrieve the AudioDeviceID of the input device assigned to an open stream
| s | The stream to query. |
| AudioDeviceID PaMacCore_GetStreamOutputDevice | ( | PaStream * | s | ) |
Retrieve the AudioDeviceID of the output device assigned to an open stream
| s | The stream to query. |
| void PaMacCore_SetupChannelMap | ( | PaMacCoreStreamInfo * | data, |
| const SInt32 *const | channelMap, | ||
| unsigned long | channelMapSize | ||
| ) |
call this after pa_SetupMacCoreStreamInfo to use channel mapping as described in notes.txt.
| data | The stream info structure to assign a channel mapping to |
| channelMap | The channel map array, as described in notes.txt. This array pointer will be used directly (ie the underlying data will not be copied), so the caller should not free the array until after the stream has been opened. |
| channelMapSize | The size of the channel map array. |
| void PaMacCore_SetupStreamInfo | ( | PaMacCoreStreamInfo * | data, |
| unsigned long | flags | ||
| ) |
Functions Use this function to initialize a paMacCoreStreamInfo struct using the requested flags. Note that channel mapping is turned off after a call to this function.
| data | The datastructure to initialize |
| flags | The flags to initialize the datastructure with. |
