GitHub for Cats!
Welcome to the wonderful world of GitHub ...for cats
I'm Eric Steinborn and I'll be your guide today.
You just watched the Official GitHub Music video, and since you're attending gitHub for cats, you also watched the most viewed cat video on the internet, Surprised Kitty.
My Goal today is for you to leave with a firm understanding of What GitHub is, how to use it.
most importantly though, why you should use it to Unlock your teams true potential
Let's begin with the most important question of all
Why call it "GitHub for Cats?"
GitHub's mascot is a cross between an Octopus and a Cat
View the Octodex
Their mascot is a cross between an octopus and a cat — an octocat
Their employees have a lot of fun creating different renditions of their beloved mascot
Renditions such as the jean luc picat for my fellow trekkies out there
or how about the Iron cat, for any iron man fans out there!
I wanted to create a title that meant that GitHub was easy to use, So my subtitle is GitHub is so easy your Cat could use it! and after today hopefully you'll agree.
so now that ive answered the most important question of the day, I'll answer the second most important question.
So What is GitHub Anyway?
Version control hosting for projects
Featuring a robust set of collaborative tools.
Version control for your projects, But that would be selling it short, as it's much more than just source control
It's Version Control with a robust set of collaborative and project management tools
They actually created a video that can explain it a million times better than I can.
sorry in advance about the silly alien music midway through it.
GitHub is Changing the World
GitHub is the De Facto Standard
5.5 million developers
16.4 million hosted projects
Running a 99.96% uptime
gitHub is home to millions of developers hosting over 10 million projects, featuring an uptime just won't quit
Many job applications list GitHub knowledge as a requirement.
And I don't blame them, Everyone should use version control for their projects.
I've mentioned version control, what exactly is version control?
Version Control
Keep old versions of files for archival or future use.
Version Control is the process of keeping old versions of files for archival or future use.
Did you just push a feature that broke your app? use version control to go back in time and grestore your app back to a time when it wasn't broken.
May have heard it called revision control, or source control
Lets take a short stroll back through time to see the history of version control
A title that would better describe what I'm about to tell you would be
A brief, and incomplete history of version control.
We're in charge of updating the employee handbook...
A brief, and incomplete history of version control.
To demonstrate this concept we'll pretend we're in charge of updating the employee handbook.
In the Beginning..
Store my files in a folder on your computer (Repo)
Employee Handbook.doc
file is stored in a folder, Otherwise known as your project repository, or repo
You create Employee Handbook.doc
Early Version control
Employee Handbook.doc
Employee Handbook_01.doc
Employee Handbook_Final.doc
Employee Handbook_FINAL.doc
Employee Handbook_02-02-1998.doc
Employee Handbook_Final_01_FINAL.doc
early version control meant that you changed the name of your document each save.
goes on and on and on, never remembering which one is the one to go with
Sort by date? Well you just started working here and the person who used to maintain the file left, and you need to find out which one is the right one.
very confusing, untenable
There's Got to be a Better Way!
I have folders upon folders of projects that I used to maintain this way, and it drives me crazy.
Maintaining your files and projects this way is like cutting break with a wodden doorstop, Sure you'll get there eventually, but
there's got to be a better way!
So there were some better version control systems that came out, you may already be familiar with some of them, CVS, SNVN, Mercurial, but along comes this heavyweight contender...
GitHub
Version control = Central repo, 1 file name full history
+ incredible social and project management toolkit
one project folder, hosted on a server, 1 filename, with a history of every change ever made to that file.
git vc, but hosted on a public site featuring a ton of social features to help create some of the best projects on the internet.
Publish them or keep them private .
very basic using one document, but this scales easily as we'll see soon.
Lets learn the basics of Version Control using GitHub
Repository is on a Server
Your Project is hosted
files are on a server, and you need to make a local copy of it in order to make changes.
Clone
Copy repo to your local machine
files are on a server, and you need to make a local copy of it in order to make changes.
Similar to Photocopying the master copy
So we need to make some changes to that file
Commit
Make your changes locally
Commit: A snapshot of your project in time.
you make changes to this photocopy, while leaving the original on the server untouched.
all changes thus far are local to you, they are not on the server yet
Once you are done, you'll want to push your changes to the server, appropriately named "push command" »
Push (Sync)
Apply your changes to central repo
push your changes to the server
Your Photocopy has now become the new master copy
old master copy still fully intact in its old state, It's just filed away for easy access if you evry wanted to go back or view the changes( better metaphor)
github is social though
Social!
Add new developers to the mix
it allows your projects to be copied to other users, (if you're not using a private system)
Fork
Create their own copy of your repo
Commit
Make their changes locally
Correct it , spelling errors
add new features
then they want to request that you pull in their changes into your repo
Push
Push their changes to their forked copies
Correct it , spelling errors
add new features
then they want to request that you pull in their changes into your repo
Pull
They request you pull their changes into your repo
Here are my changes, they are better because of XYZ
Sorry Jimmy, but that was intentionally mispelled
Thanks Jane, This really could benefit from the addition of a cat-focused history of the internet
Push
Push their changes to your repo
You decide what stays and what goes.
But these people don;t have to be people you already know, they can be anyone, Github is global
GitHub is Global
My plugin was updated by someone in the UK
Before we get into how to use GitHub, I'd like to tell you about one of the first times ITS utilized GitHub. and the results that effort produced.
Responsive Web Design (RWD) SWAT Team
Back in March of 2013, CTO's office heard about this thing called responsive web design.
The web was aflutter about it, and the CTO's office wanted to learn more.
So it put together a group of 10 developers to perform some R&D on Responsive Web Design
Stats
10 people, 3 weeks, full time
1700 commits
899 issues resolved
a years worth of work in 3 weeks. amazing experience.
1700 commits
899 issues addressed
GitHub facilitated the collaboration we needed to produce some deliverables.
RWD Sprint Deliverables
build the foundation for a framework
getting started guide featuring 16 rwd demos showing off techniques to build responsive websites.
All left with advanced knowledge of RWD and how we can use it at the state
A resource that all of NYS, nay the world can use to get started with RWD
So we know what version control is, and a little bit about how github is different, so lets dig into GitHub now.
Set up GitHub
Sign up for a GitHub account
Install GitHub for Windows
Create first repo
Install GitHub for Windows
Here is the install screen. after the installation you'll be prompted with a screen to add your credentials that you created on github.com
First Run
enter in your credentials
hit run, and you're off. The program is now fully installed.
Let's create your first repo on GitHub
Create Your First Repo
Creating a repo is really simple using the GitHub for windows client.
it's literally a drag and drop operation to turn any existing project into a GitHub repo.
We'll create a new repo from a project we've been working on about Kittens
After you drag the folder into GHW, you'll get prompted to fill in some information about it »
We'll come up with a good name for our repo, we'll call it, Kittens.
Here you can decide if you want to push it to gitHub immediately or not, I'll say no this time, and show you how to do it in the GUI.
It's that simple to create a new project on GitHub.
GUI Home Screen
GitHub Repo List
Clicking on your username under the "GitHub" category will show you any repo that you haven't cloned yet
The list on the right is populated with any repositories that you have created or forked on GitHub
double click a repo in this list to clone that repo onto your local machine.
Once a repo has been cloned locally it will be located here and under the Local category
Local Repo List
When you select "repositories" under the "local" category, the right side of the screen displays a list of any local repos.
To be a local repo, you must have either not synced it to GitHub yet, like our kittens repo, or you have cloned it to your local computer from GitHub.
Let's take a look at our Kittens repo now. WE'll double click on the Kittens repo and we'll be brought to the repo screen.
Committing
So we created this Kittens repo, but we havent pushed it to GitHub yet. Let's do that now.
On the repo screen you'll see a box on the top left that tells us that we havent committed the new repo to the server yet.
This commit box will also be present any time you make any changes to your project
We'll need to provide a short message indicating the changes we made.
Since this is the first time we're pushing this to GitHub I prefer to just make that message "Initial Commit" and click the commit button at the bottom of that box.
Let's push this baby to GitHub now!
Push to GitHub
The top right of the window features the button that makes all the GitHub magic happen.
Press that "Push to GitHub" button and you'll send all your local commits to GitHub
Commit List
So we made our commit, and we pushed to GitHub, notice now that your commit gets added to the top of the commit list.
We only see one for now, but each additional commit would get stacked on top of our initial commit
this list allows you to click on different commits throughout the project's lifespan and see all of the changes that commit featured.
Differences List (Diff)
1.|
Hello, World!

1.|
Hey There, World!

That list will show you a line by line detailed list of changes associated with that commit
That is called the The differences list or DIFF list
Original lines of text will have a red background
below it you'll see a line of text with a green background detailing the new line
this is shows line by line for any changes
Push (Sync)
Quick note here.
After you push the repo to GitHub, that push button will change to a Sync button
you'll see a small icon next to the sync button when you have changes that need to be synced to teh server
And that small number icon will disappear when you have no more changes to push to GitHub.
Can You Commit?
So there you have it. That's how you create a new GitHub repo, and an in-depth overview of the GitHub for Windows GUI
As like many things with computers, Hands-on experience is key.
we had a lab before the presentation when many of you already signed up for GitHub, after the presentation, we'd like to offer you a chance to make your first commit using our lab.
Speaking of hands on Experience, I'd like to tell you another story of how NYS collaborated using GitHub
DMV SWAT Team
DMV was developing their Registration Renewal application.
This was a public site, so of course they they wanted it to be mobile friendly so everyone could use it.
the best way to make a public site mobile friendly is to develop it using RWD
They were really pressed for developers so they asked the CTO's office for help.
we mobilized another swat team to help them out.
Stats
8 people, 2 days, 1 week part time
256 commits
278 issues resolved
8 people, 2 days full time co-located, followed by a week of part time remote located
DMV Sprint Deliverables
Fully responsive Registration Renewal Application
RWD framework for future apps
Collaboration effort which NYS has never seen before
Created NYS's first responsive transactional application.
More importantly we created a re-usable template for future DMV apps
The RWD swat team proved that we could get a group together to research a topic
The DMV SWAT team proved that we could all do it remotely.
Remote Collaboration
Not just 8 people..
But 4 different Agencies
..in 4 different buildings
..working as time alowed.
8 people.. 4 Agencies 4 buildings ..all working on the same project, as time allowed. That 20% time wasnt the same for everyone. We had the flexibility to chime in at any time 24/7, when our schedules allowed, and the team was kept in the loop.
This was what ITS has been talking about. This was true cross-cluster collaboration
More importantly though, I think it broke the mold of what NYS previously considered collaboration.
I want to let you in on a secret. this collaboration would have never occurred if it weren't for a single directective.
Use GitHub.com
Use GitHub.com
Without GitHub.com, we just have version control.
Github.com uniquely enabled us to do this remote collaboration with ease.
I'd like to tell why.
News Feed
First thing you see when you log into github.com is your news feed.
You see activity of the people, repos and issues that you are following
Think of it like a facebook feed, but instead of seeing pictures of half eaten lunches, and your friends latest candy crush scores
you'll see interesting issues and activitiy from professionals and projects you are following.
There is also a search box at the top of the screne to search the site.
Each GitHub user has their own user page. For demonstration purposes let's type in my username here
User Page
User Page
User Page
User Page
User Page
and a cute little chart of contributions over time
lets click my jquery plugin to see what a repo page looks like
Repo Page
Repo Page
at the top of every repo page you'll see a short description of that repo if the author created one.
Repo Page
Repo Page
Repo Page
these tabs on teh right take you to some cool features, I'll discuss Issues and Pulse later
You'll notice a couple of buttons on this page as well.
Clone & Download
on the right side of the screen you'll see the clone and download buttons.
clicking the clone in desktop button will actually bring up the GUI client and clone the repo onto your local machine.
clicking the download button will download a zip file of the entire repo's content
Watching & Starring Repos
if you watch a repo, any changes that happen on it will show up in your news feed
starring a repo is like favoriting it, and you'll have a list of all your starred repos in one place.
 Thats where forking comes into play.
Forking
It's a good thing!
Creating a personal copy of someone elses repo.
GH is social. All code on GitHub is available at your fingertips
You can do whatever you want with that code that their license allows you to.
Let's fork this repo quickly to show you how its done
Fork
When you click fork, you'll get a cute little gif of that repo getting photocopied
behind the scenes GitHub is creating you a personal copy of this repo and it's... available immediately
Available Immediately
Use it on your projects
Modify it
Fix a bug
Send back changes to original repo
Use it on your projects
Modify it
Fix a bug
Send back changes to original repo
work together to create an even better project
I'm asking you to take a giant leap here from traditional thinking. I'm asking you to make your code publically available, to share it and accept help and criticism from others. It can only make a project better in the long run.
speaking of working together, teams love github
Teams Love GitHub!
Having worked on three teams that used GitHub for collaboration, I have yet to meet someone who has said they didnt like github.
It brings teams together, and gets you motivated
It's great for the tiniest one-off projects all the way to huge scale archetectures..
Large Projects? No Problem
Multiple people can edit the same file simultaneously
Offline editing, commit when ready
Fast workflow of your choice
Long distance collaboration
large scale projects are easy to manage using GitHub.
be careful when editing the same line of a file
many VCs require you to be online to commit your changes
keep your changes local until you are ready to publish them
You aren't restricted to a specific workflow
and as I mentioned before, you dont even need to be in the same country to collaborate with your team.
on top of this, you also get a robust project management suite
Project Management Suite
Wiki
Issue tracker
Code review
Project dashboard
Breeds collaboration
Build a wiki right into your project
Dynamic issue tracking system.
Github has code review built in. with the proper workflow you can verify each line of new code to make sure it adheres yto your standards
Deny the request, request they make changes to conform to the standard
Project dashboard called "Pulse" will give you an overview of the repository as a whole, we'll talk about Issues and Pulse later.
Issue Tracker
Track Bugs
Track Bugs in your project
Navigation doesnt pop up when clicked
Make Feature Requests
Request new feature on the site.
Header font should be Comic Sans
Ask Questions, Get Notifications
Ask questions, and notify your project team members
Will you all be available for thursdays meeting?
all appropriate users will be notified when issues demanding their participation of knowledge are updated or initiaited.
Assign to Users
Assign someone, or yourself to fix the navigation
Group in Milestones
group issues with common timelines or requirements into milestones.
Two issues are assigned to the beta test milestone, one before we roll out.
GitHub provides you a dashboard where you can view all of these at a glance.
Pulse
Pull requests over Time
Status of Issues
You can see the status of every issue associated with your repo.
Which issues are open, which are recently closed
Throw out your giant spreadsheets filled with questions and project plans
utilize issues and milestones to keep track of your projects
Individual Contributions
You can see who has been active, and who isn't
With that knowledge you can see if maybe someone needs help setting up gitHub properly
Or maybe someone just isnt understanding the new framework you've decided to use and needs to sit down with one of your developers and do some pair programming.
Lets support our team members appropriately
Combined individual performance = your teams overall performance
That's Just the Beginning!
Thats just the beginning, I pulled a lot of content out of this presentation that I felt was too advanced for a large primarily non-hands-on group.
If you want to learn more about GitHub and some more advanced techniques.
I'm a video gamer...
LEVEL UP!
I love games. In the gaming world, when you get enough experience, you level up
Just from being here today you've already levelled up, congrats!
You can leave here today and tell everyone you know that you are a Level 2 GitHubber
if you'd like to level up even more...
Level Up With These Techniques
These are the next things you need to know once you get the basics down pat.
Pull requests are how you request your changes be pulled into another project of branch
branches are how I do my workflow, but understanding them is a bit more advanced than I wanted to get into today.
GH pages is a free web hosting platform for your projects built right into github
and merge conflicts. When dealing with any version control system, you'll encounter merge conflicts sometimes. they suck, but there is always a way to resolve them.
Great Resources
Here are some great resources on getting even deeper into GitHub, give these links a try
yammer, irc, email, forum meetings etc.
Start Today!
Thank You
Big thanks for the Forum for letting me give this presentaiton on a topic that is near and dear to my heart.
I think GitHub is unbelievablely awesome.
If you are feeling a bit overwhelmed with the possibilities of GitHub and don't know whereto start
don't forget the lab at the end of the presentation to help you make your first github commit.
And trust me, it gets easier as time goes by. It may look like a lot now but when you jump right in, you'll get the hang of it quickly.
Let's start today to get GitHub working for you!
Questions
Questions: Please try to allow time for people to ask basic questions first, if we get through the basic questions, and you haev more more advanced ones we can hit them after. I don;t want to be any more confusing than I already have. If I cant get to your question here today, feel free to email me, or ask on yammer in the revision control group. I alwas try to make myself available for things that I think are awesome.
Can you incorporate pull requests piece by piece without pulling in the whole request?
You would deny te pull request, commenting on the code that you don;t want to include in the repo, and have the person re-submit their request before pulling it in.
What about deployment? How do you test, approve, deploy final version? How do you keep track of that? How do you launch project for production?
Use branching workflows for testing, approval and deploying. There are also automated tools, such as Travis, that reads through testing scripts, etc. Investigate travis, google “github deployment models”
Examples of other types of collaboration, besides code repositories? Are there more than just code projects on github?
Yes, there are GIS repositories, docs. There is only limited support for binary files such as .doc, .pdf.
Can you go back after you’ve committed and pushed?
Yes, windows client has a “rollback” commit button you can click, which rolls back that commit and allows you to change it. It can go back to any previous commits.
How does github manage enhancements?
They develop github.com on github.com. Development team announces new features on their blog posts. Though you may want to do a search on that if you are interested in learning more about it.
Private repositories require subscription? Does ITS have a private repository account?
Yes private repos require a subscription. ITS does have a private subscription for the organization for use with officially sanctioned ITS projects. Current ITS stance on an ITS-wide implementation is" “we’re working on it.”
How easy to migrate from SVN to github?
Copy your svn folder into github and now you have a github repository. GitHub is very good at working with SVN projects
Cyber security and access control. How do you keep those private codes private on github? How do you host security related codel on github?
Don’t put those on github. Just keep them locally.
Is that also true of the zip download?
Yes, because zip download only includes what’s on the github repository.
How does github manage 2 conflicting pushes, i.e., changes to same line of code? and how does it handle changes to the same file, but not hte same line?
Github alerts to conflicts which you have to resolve. such as when two people are editing the same line of code. But if there are no conflicts, they just get merged together.
Typical security is based on roles/permissions within teams? How does github do it?
Not sure if github permission system is robust down to level of files/folders. It can be assigned by user. You can use branching and a Branch master user who cna accept and deny any changes made to projects that shouldn't be changed.
How many people can merge pushes into master on remote?
You can decide how many people have this access through the GitHub permissions system. This can be managed thru branching as well. So person responsible handles those changes.
Can you close old projects so no further changes occur?
Yes, by locking out anyone else from making changes to that code, i.e., only one person can make changes to final official version. But Eric recommends not doing that, instead recommend people make changes in their branch and then decide if you want to pull them in.
Can you delete repositories?
Yes, it deletes your original repository, but not any forks.
What about vendor specific spreadsheets? How does that fit in with github.
Excel are binary files and GitHub is not currently set up to handle them easily. Eric wouldnt recommend using GitHub is you are only using binary files.
If you have a group doing front-end and another using back-end. Would you see this as managing front-end development? What’s best practice? Also what about integration with testing tools?
Use a brancing methodology to manage different environments, i.e., development, testing, master. Do your syncs between the different branches on the different levels. For testing you can use travis testing tools.
What about multiple deployments such as slightly different versions for internal vs. external users?
With a proper configuration you can configure any repository to do anything. With Travis, you can write a script to put this folder on this server, this folder on this server, and this folder on both servers -- with all the credentials, etc. needed.
What about using github to find code?
Eric recommends just googling, often github will show up. The github search isn’t necessarily good for topic searching.
Are there strategies to attract contributors to your repository?
Put it in a footer to say “developed on github” Advertise that you’re using “XYZ on github”
Has github made you a better coder?
Yes, because of the social aspects where people improve on what you’ve done. Also, the public nature makes you conscious of what you’re doing. And just the structure and processes involved.
Should you have one github account or multiple github accounts?
Eric recommends one github account and create multiple projects within that. Eric recommends using Github for Windows as opposed to command line for beginners. You can have multiple organizations associated with your one user account
For help, should you google or help in github for command line help?
Use ProGit book for command line info. Also do “trygit” multiple times until you get it. Eric had to do it 5 times before he finally got it.
Do you prefer using github with windows, linux, or mac?
Github works great as long as you don’t have proxy issues. Command line works if you’re comfortable with that. Use whichever platform you want, Win and mac both have official gui clients. Chances are good that if you use linux, you'll probably be happier using the command line.
Can we use github for our policy guide being worked on by 10 people?
Maybe the best way to do is to get everybody in room together and decide on what the issues are and settle those at the start. Create issues for each piece of the policy that need to be worked on. Then use github to assign them to each user who will be responsible for editing that piece. Github is best when everyone knows what they’re doing on a common process. Issues really help to make that work easily.
In github are private repositories secure?
Yes these postings are sent via SSH or HTTPS. It is private and locked down. GitHub Enterprise is also completely behind your firewall if you use that instead.


Tutorial: Get Started
Overview
This tutorial contains step by step information to demonstrate the basics of RDO.Net. At the end, you'll have a WPF application:
and an ASP.Net Core Application(C# only):
that can display and manage a database of movies.
You can find the sample code under samples/Tutorial
or samples.vb/Tutorial/
in the source code repo.
Prerequisites
- Visual Studio 2017 (version >= 15.3) or Visual Studio 2019, with .Net desktop development and ASP.NET web development workloads installed.
- DevZest.Data.Tools.vsix installed.
- SQL Server Management Studio (version >= 17.0).
Create the Solution
- In Visual Studio, create a blank solution Tutorial:
- Add projects into the solution:
In Visual Studio Solution Explorer tool window, right click the solution Tutorial, then click "Add..."-> "New Project..." from the context menu, to add the following projects:
| Project Name | Project Type |
|---|---|
| Movies | Class Library (.Net Standard) |
| Movies.DbInit | Console App (.Net Core) |
| Movies.Test | MSTest Project (.Net Core) |
| Movies.WPF | WPF App (.Net Framework) |
| Movies.AspNetCore | ASP.Net Core Web Application (C# only) |
Note
- It's important to name the projects correctly so the namespaces will match when you copy and paste code.
- It appears Visual Studio does not support VB.Net for ASP.Net Core Web Application. Movies.AspNetCore is only available in C#.
In the end, you will have following projects created in Visual Studio:

Color
Color provides a huge visual distinction and is an important part of typography.
- Don't pick colors arbitrarily; use a color palette instead. Material Design colors and Flat UI colors are good palettes to start with.
- Do not overuse a color too many times, or else they may lose their unique distinction. Do not use too many completely different colors either.
- Adhere to the Law of Similarity.
- It is recommended to not use pitch black
#000
as your body text color. Instead, use a very dark gray such as #333
.
- Sometimes, it is better to use an alpha value or
opacity
instead of a lighter color. Click here for an in-depth explanation.
- Make sure that there is enough contrast between the text and the background. Use this contrast checker tool to help you.
Further Readings:


Did you know that...
Turbidity is the cloudiness or haziness of a fluid caused by individual particles (suspended solids) that are generally invisible to the naked eye, similar to smoke in air. The measurement of turbidity is a key test of water quality.Turbidity (or haze) is also applied to transparent solids such as glass or plastic. In plastic production haze is defined as the percentage of light that is deflected more than 2.5C from the incoming light direction.
Schistosomiasis is a disease that is caused by parasites (genus Schistosoma) that enter humans by attaching to the skin, penetrating it, and then migrating through the venous system to the portal veins where the parasites produce eggs and eventually, the symptoms of acute or chronic disease (for example, fever, abdominal discomfort, blood in stools). This disease is also known as bilharziasis, bilharzia, bilharziosis, and snail fever or, in the acute form, Katayama fever.

KICKING AND SCREAMING A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1995 Steve Rhodes
RATING (0 TO ****): **
KICKING AND SCREAMING is a good, but too frequently trite movie about the superficiality and meaninglessness of young people's lives today. It tells the story of a group of boys just graduating from college, and although there are many girls in the cast, they are in secondary roles. It is being billed as a droll comedy, but it really isn't. The movie at its best is an insightful satire on young adulthood. I laughed a couple of times, but more often I was either touched by the dialog or just bored.
First time writer and director Noah Baumbach assembled a cast of typical college kid looking actors and actresses. Most have been in other shows about Generation Xers that either I have never seen or that I hated, i.e., shows like NAKED IN NEW YORK or AMATEURS. None had been in the absolutely wonderful BEFORE SUNRISE which is proof positive that shows about people in their 20s can be both well made and not depressing.
In KICKING AND SCREAMING's circle of friends are Grover (Josh Hamilton), Max (Christopher Eigeman), Skippy (Jason Wiles), and Ottis (Carlos Jacott). The perpetual student and local bartender, Chet (Eric Stoltz) has "taken every class in school" and yet is still a student. Chet says that he can not understand why people want to be lawyers or doctors, when they can be students. Chet is also the only one interested in real knowledge. The others spend their time in make believe trivia game shows and appear to have vast surface knowledge about everything like "the names of eight movies where monkeys played a leading role", but no interest in the meaning of anything. One semester Skip takes only: Ethics, Scandinavian Literature, and Personality.
Their girlfriends are Jane (Olivia D'Abo), Miami (Parker Posey), and Kate (Cara Buono). Finally, Elliott Gould, an actor who was never very good, is a complete embarrassment in this movie as Grover's dad. He demonstrate what happens to a bad actor when he goes down hill. Luckily, he has a limited number of scenes.
Two of the main girls in the movie, Jane and Miami, have an unusual way to flirt with boys.  Weird.
The movie has way too many failed attempts at sight gags. Jacott, who is almost as bad as Gould, wears a pajama top with a tie to the graduation party. In another scene, someone breaks a glass in his kitchen and then puts a sign that says "broken glass" over it rather than sweeping it up. Baumbach should have concentrated on the dialog which is the high point of the show and given up on the sight gags.
Baumbach's dialog ranges from the insightful to the bizarre. Chet is the philosopher even when serving drinks. To a regular who thinks Chet is nuts, Chet muses, "If Plato is a fine red wine, then Aristotle is a dry martini." In another scene, Max, talking about his parents says, "It's like my real parents were assassinated, and they were next in line for the job. They fight a lot, but they'd never split." Jane keeps calling Grover from Prague and leaving messages on his answering machine about everything, even her tour of Auschwitz.
Although the guys and gals hang out a lot, none of them have more than a superficial interest in each other or in life itself for that matter. I found this part of the movie believable but incredibly sad. The kids smoke a lot, and drink all of the time. I am sorry to report that movie seems to say that you can drink Scotch and Colt 45 malt liquor with one large swig after another, and yet never get mush mouthed, stumble, or have it in any way affect your body or your behavior. Since the film is clearly targeted at the 12-29 age groups, it is freighting that this movies trivializes alcoholism so much. Most kids in the show have major drinking problems that the picture makes almost invisible.
Other than the two pieces of terrible acting mentioned previously, the other actors and actresses were good. Eric Stoltz who needs good direction to be effective got it from Baumbach. Stoltz has been pathetic in some films (NAKED IN NEW YORK and SAY ANYTHING) and quite good in others (ROB ROY and THE WATERDANCE). Here he was the best person in the cast.
The almost sepia colored photography by Steven Bernstein and the depressing and lifeless costumes by Mary Jane Fort add to the overall moroseness of the show. Bernstein likes using a series of black and white stills that dissolve into a lightly colored set of stills which then dissolve into a live action scene. It is a technique that works well at focusing the audience's attention on the character's expression.
KICKING AND SCREAMING runs a quick 1:34 thanks to editing by Julie Dole. It is rated R for heavy drinking that teaches a bad lesson, heavy smoking (ditto), some bad language, some nudity, a little sex, but no violence. If you let your teenagers go, go with them if you can and talk about the movie afterwards, especially the drinking, the smoking, and the real reasons for going to college. This could be a good opportunity to open up some communication with them. I found myself touched by the movie, and although Baumbach's film showed a lot of potential, too much was unrealized for me to be able to recommend it. I give the movie my average movie rating of **.
**** = One of the top few films of this or any year. A must see film. *** = Excellent show. Look for it. ** = Average movie. Kind of enjoyable. * = Poor show.  Totally unbearable.

Qpid C++ broker
0.30 and earlier
0.32 and later
Qpidd can be induced to make http requests.
The XML exchange type is an optional, dynamically loaded module for qpidd that allows creation of exchanges that route messages based on evaluating an xquery expression against them.
On parsing a message sent to an XML exchange, whose body is XML containing a link to a DTD, the broker process will attempt to retrieve the referenced resource(s). I.e. the broker process may be induced to make outgoing HTTP connections by publishing a message containing links to an XML exchange.
A patch is available that prevents any retrieval of external entities referenced in the XML. This will be included in subsequent releases, but can be applied to 0.30 if desired.
If the XML exchange functionality is not required, the module in question need not be loaded at all. This can be done either by moving the module - named xml.so - out of the module directory, or by setting the --no-module-dir option and adding an explicit --load-module argument for every required module.
Where the XML exchange functionality is required, authorisation may be enabled to prevent all but trusted users from creating or publishing to xml exchanges.

yoctoPets
The life of a yoctoPet is tiny, brutish, and short. But with your care they can live out their lives in happiness and health.
Care Tips
- When a yoctoPet cries out for attention (!!), it usually needs something. Check the stats screen to see what's wrong.
- If a yoctoPet doesn't want to do something, it will proudly refuse. Don't take it personally.
- A balanced diet helps keep your yoctoPet healthy. Fruit is nutritious and filling. Candy is fun but unhealthy. There are only two foods. There are no secret foods.
- yoctoPets love to play Hi-Lo. This is a card game where you win by guessing whether the next card dealt will be higher or lower than the last. Aces are high. Three correct guesses in a row wins!
- When the skull icon appears it means your yoctoPet is ill. Give it some medicine!
- Even the best cared for yoctoPets will eventually die. Learn to let go. Or take pictures to remember the good times.

About this document.


Most of you might know that I am currently a student. Living near the University is quite important for me as I hate traveling long. In the central part of Karlsruhe, the city I study in, most houses are very old. The house I live in was built around 1900 and modernized from time to time. A heater and electricity were added, for example.
The flat is shared by students. My hirer told me that he will pay all cost of materials if I wanted to improve something. As a new leaser came and we had no washing machine we thought it was time to renovate the kitchen.
The old kitchen
Why did I renovate?
- We needed more space for a new washing machine.
- The old countertop was ugly, molded and had a water damage.
- The tap was loose.
- The tube for hot water was loose.
Some photos
Plans
The renovation
Tools
I needed quite a lot of tools. I had to buy most of them when I saw that I couldn't continue without them:
Additionally I needed a hammer to get the wall plugs into the wall, some different screws and wall plugs, pliers, some tubes and some O-rings.
Photos while working
The chemicals I used are called "Max Bahr - Silikon Entferner". It seems to be called "Caulk Remover" in English. I had to apply mine with a brush which was in the package. After 10 minutes, I could remove some more of the caulk.
The new kitchen
Conclusion
I am proud of the result. The new kitchen looks nice, the countertop is very exact horizontally, no water drips out. Some parts could have been done better (like the silicone clogging), but I guess most could not be much better.
The next time I do something like this I will hopefully not have to go about ten times to the hardware store :-/ Now I have some more tools :D


--- layout: post title: Mobile domain names date: 2004-01-28 00:00:00 category: mobile ---
I am torn.
On the one hand, these guys sponsored the absolutely excellent Swedish Beers networking event which I (too briefly) attended this evening.
On the other hand, I have a whirling firepit of rage hammering around my brain-n-bottle when I read about the value of "mobile domain names". They're keywords for SMS services - a topic I've dealt with a couple of times before. Keywords are a bad thing from a usability perspective, and using them results in a significant loss of traffic to SMS services: there's a clear commercial imperative for avoiding them.
So to read about this, Bango-number style attempt to package up arbitrary words or numbers and equate them with domain names (presumably so as to tie in with dotcom-goldrush ideas of the value inherent in pie-fucking.co.uk or similar) was particularly annoying.
(With apologies to the chaps at iTagg who bought me a coke and a bottle of pear cider this evening - sorry guys, but I really don't think this stuff cuts the mustard).


1.How difficult in your academic? There are faculties which sit on the lawn all day long, while other places have to "sweat" to get the degree.
12345 Very EasyVery Hard
2.Students Characteristics: In some faculties there is a competition between students,
lack of assistance to the photographs, works, exercises, etc.,
compared to other faculties where everyone helps each other, How is it with you?
12345 Very EasyVery Hard
3.Secretary Attitude: Secretary and Faculty management should give you the students a kind and professional service.
But between theory and action may be a long gap.
12345 Very EasyVery Hard
4.Students Union: We all know that there are many students unions that working hard for students,
and there are those who do nothing, how your students union??
12345 Very EasyVery Hard
5.Social Life Are you socially fun in academy? (Parties, social evenings, Cafeteria, breaks on the lawn).
Because those are beautiful years, we would also like to enjoy!

Create application in python2.7 with django-nonrel and mongodb on openshift
21 Aug 2013-
Create an account on openshift
-
Create app by choosing python2.7. You need not to choose any git repository or set other settings just choose “create application”. After that’s done, you can switch to your localhost and create a folder with your app_name and execute those commands that you get upon creation of the app. That will let you make modification locally and just “git push” your changes to the cloud.
-
Add cartridge mongodb to your app and save those credentials.
-
Before going into the code you need to install some pre-requirements on the cloud. Login with ssh that you’re provided with for your app on openshift and ssh to it. Go to tmp folder with: cd $OPENSHIFT_TMP_DIR and install first pip and then do these:
z # pip install https://bitbucket.org/wkornewald/django-nonrel/get/tip.tar.gz
# pip install https://bitbucket.org/wkornewald/djangotoolbox/get/tip.tar.gz
# pip install https://github.com/django-nonrel/mongodb-engine/tarball/master
You can install these with pip, but what I did was “wget” all of these then “tar xcvf” them, cd to each of the extracted folders and install them with “python setup.py install”. After installation you can verify by typing “python”, then in the shell “import django”, “django.get_version()”, and output should be “1.3”. At this point you have python and django-nonrel set up. Moving on. -
What you need to do now is modify the sample code generated from openshift and you have it locally after “git clone”, you can create yourself a py project in Eclipse and import it. Now, you can get this code (https://github.com/ljupcho/openshift_python2.7_django-nonrel_mongodb) and copy the folders and files, change the folder name ‘blog’ to whatever your app_name is and simple git push from terminal from your local app folder.
-
That should actually do it, you should have the app now running, since the “git push” restart the application as well.
-
You will also need to sync the database, so log in with ssh to application and do “cd ~/app-root/repo/blog” and execute: “python manage.py syncdb” With this you can add superuser that you can log in to admin django with.
-
You can also buy yourself a domain and link it to the rhcloud app.

Interests
Research Interests
My research interests are broadly two-fold but falls under the umbrella of electromagnetics for aerospace and earth science applications.
Before I outline these, I wish to express my reasoning for my inclination for aerospace applications. My biggest reason is my fascination and irresistable urge to spend the rest of my life (and not just career) in exploring earth science and space by designing and building optimised technologies for it. But another, equally important motivation is my belief that in the process of building technologies for a multi-disciplinary field like space technology provides an ideal and fertile ground for the birth of technologies that have applications in myriad humane areas from low power adaptive circuit technologies to discovery of materials that have found breakthrough applications in medicine and building a low energy future for humanity.

This means that each tutorial is a standalone unit that can be downloaded by anyone with an internet connection. And since the output is bundled with the tutorial, this makes it easy to check that you’re doing the tutorial in the right way!
The collaborative nature of GitHub also makes it easy for anyone who spots an error in a tutorial to report or correct it. Additionally, anyone who updated or extended a tutorial for a class or a workshop can easily upload the changes to the repository. Since Git keeps a history of all the tutorial files you can also easily see when a tutorial was last updated, and access old versions.
Most of the tutorial repositories belong to the Taming the BEAST organization on GitHub, but this is not a requirement and in some cases authors retain ownership of their tutorials. This makes it possible for anyone to contribute a new tutorial, but still retain ownership and credit. As long as the tutorial conforms to a few guidelines, there is no need to transfer ownership to Taming the BEAST.
Submitting a new tutorial to Taming the BEAST comprises the following three steps (described in more detail below):

What it's like to have your hair cut at the best Toni & Guy in the UK
What it's like to have your hair cut at the best Toni & Guy in the UK
by Emma Grimshaw'A woman's haircut can change her life' is what fashion icon Coco Chanel once said, and she is oh so right.
Sporting an attractive style can leave you feeling like an entirely different person, filled with a new inner confidence.
But finding the perfect salon, where you can rely on a stylist trim can be a tricky job. Pick the wrong venue and your life could be changed for the worst as you hide away and wait for your hair to grow back.
So when I heard Bristol's Toni & Guy had been voted the best in the UK - beating more than 200 other outlets - I was quick to book an appointment and experience for myself their talents.
Top stylist and owner James McDonnell met me at the venue's swanky entrance which has just been refurbished to look and feel more like a cosmopolitan coffee shop.
From the onset chatting to him felt like I was talking to an old friend rather than a stranger. He assessed my hair before finding out what I hoped from my new look.
Then his wife Kim, who runs the salon alongside her husband - they met while training for Toni &Guy and then set up the Bristol base together almost three decades ago - washed my hair.
She massaged in a honey and oat shampoo followed by a label.m colour revive treatment - both smelt amazing.
From there I headed back to James who started cutting my long and frizzy mop.
It was clear to see why this spot had been voted the best in the UK - not just for the haircuts it produces but also for being the best at customer care and colouring.
James was a true wizard with his scissors and in less than half an hour I had new layered, silky hair with lots of volume.
The key to the venue's success James explains is because it feels like one big family. Most of his employees have worked there since they were teenagers, being trained up by the company.
Many of his staff have won personal awards and all raced round the busy salon with a smile on their faces.
I left the salon with a new bounce in my step and show-stopping hair.
*The salon is based on St Augustine's Parade and is open six days a week.

Drivers warned of 'hazardous' conditions on some roads
by By Digital Desk staffDrivers are being asked to take care on the roads this morning following sharp frost and ice overnight.
Temperatures dropped to minus two in some parts, with Met Éireann warning it could be "hazardous" in places.
Yesterday also saw the season's first significant snowfall affect routes in Leinster and Munster.
Lauren Beehan from AA Roadwatch said those driving for the morning commute must take extra precautions.
"If you're driving in icy conditions, remember to avoid any harsh braking or harsh maneuvers," she said.
"It will take you longer to stop as braking distances are longer so slow down and leave yourself extra space. Remember to leave extra time to fully de-ice your car before your journey as well if that's necessary."

'How astonishingly cold it is! My body is cracking all over!' said the Snow–man. 'The wind is really cutting one's very life out! And how that fiery thing up there glares!' He meant the sun, which was just setting. 'It sha'n't make me blink, though, and I shall keep quite cool and collected.'

He was born amidst the shouts and laughter of the boys, and greeted by the jingling bells and cracking whips of the sledges.
The sun went down, the full moon rose, large, round, clear and beautiful, in the dark blue sky.
'There it is again on the other side!' said the Snow–man, by which he meant the sun was appearing again. 'I have become quite accustomed to its glaring. I hope it will hang there and shine, so that I may be able to see myself. I wish I knew, though, how one ought to see about changing one's position. I should very much like to move about. If I only could, I would glide up and down the ice there, as I saw the boys doing; but somehow or other, I don't know how to run.'
'Bow–wow!' barked the old yard–dog; he was rather hoarse and couldn't bark very well. His hoarseness came on when he was a house–dog and used to lie in front of the stove. 'The sun will soon teach you to run! I saw that last winter with your predecessor, and farther back still with his predecessors! They have all run away!'
'I don't understand you, my friend,' said the Snow–man. 'That thing up there is to teach me to run?' He meant the moon. 'Well, it certainly did run just now, for I saw it quite plainly over there, and now here it is on this side.'
'You know nothing at all about it,' said the yard–dog. 'Why, you have only just been made. The thing you see there is the moon; the other thing you saw going down the other side was the sun. He will come up again tomorrow morning, and will soon teach you how to run away down the gutter. The weather is going to change; I feel it already by the pain in my left hind–leg; the weather is certainly going to change.'
'I can't understand him,' said the Snow–man; 'but I have an idea that he is speaking of something unpleasant. That thing that glares so, and then disappears, the sun, as he calls it, is not my friend. I know that by instinct.'
'Bow–wow!' barked the yard–dog, and walked three times round himself, and then crept into his kennel to sleep. The weather really did change. Towards morning a dense damp fog lay over the whole neighbourhood; later on came an icy wind, which sent the frost packing. But when the sun rose, it was a glorious sight. The trees and shrubs were covered with rime, and looked like a wood of coral, and every branch was thick with long white blossoms. The most delicate twigs, which are lost among the foliage in summer–time, came now into prominence, and it was like a spider's web of glistening white. The lady–birches waved in the wind; and when the sun shone, everything glittered and sparkled as if it were sprinkled with diamond dust, and great diamonds were lying on the snowy carpet.
'Isn't it wonderful?' exclaimed a girl who was walking with a young man in the garden. They stopped near the Snow–man, and looked at the glistening trees. 'Summer cannot show a more beautiful sight,' she said, with her eyes shining.
'And one can't get a fellow like this in summer either,' said the young man, pointing to the Snow–man. 'He's a beauty!'
The girl laughed, and nodded to the Snow–man, and then they both danced away over the snow.
'Who were those two?' asked the Snow–man of the yard–dog. 'You have been in this yard longer than I have. Do you know who they are?'
'Do I know them indeed?' answered the yard–dog. 'She has often stroked me, and he has given me bones. I don't bite either of them!'
'But what are they?' asked the Snow–man.
'Lovers!' replied the yard–dog. 'They will go into one kennel and gnaw the same bone!'
'Are they the same kind of beings that we are?' asked the Snow–man.
'They are our masters,' answered the yard–dog. 'Really people who have only been in the world one day know very little.' That's the conclusion I have come to. Now I have age and wisdom; I know everyone in the house, and I can remember a time when I was not lying here in a cold kennel. Bow–wow!'
'The cold is splendid,' said the Snow–man. 'Tell me some more. But don't rattle your chain so, it makes me crack!'
'Bow–wow!' barked the yard–dog. 'They used to say I was a pretty little fellow; then I lay in a velvet–covered chair in my master's house.  But by–and–by I grew too big, and I was given to the housekeeper, and I went into the kitchen. You can see into it from where you are standing; you can look at the room in which I was master, for so I was when I was with the housekeeper. Of course it was a smaller place than upstairs, but it was more comfortable, for I wasn't chased about and teased by the children as I had been before. My food was just as good, or even better. I had my own pillow, and there was a stove there, which at this time of year is the most beautiful thing in the world. I used to creep right under that stove. Ah me! I often dream of that stove still! Bow–wow!'
'Is a stove so beautiful?' asked the Snow–man. 'Is it anything like me?'
'It is just the opposite of you! It is coal–black, and has a long neck with a brass pipe. It eats firewood, so that fire spouts out of its mouth. One has to keep close beside it–quite underneath is the nicest of all. You can see it through the window from where you are standing.'
And the Snow–man looked in that direction, and saw a smooth polished object with a brass pipe. The flicker from the fire reached him across the snow. The Snow–man felt wonderfully happy, and a feeling came over him which he could not express; but all those who are not snow–men know about it.
'Why did you leave her?' asked the Snow–man. He had a feeling that such a being must be a lady. 'How could you leave such a place?'
'I had to!' said the yard–dog. 'They turned me out of doors, and chained me up here. I had bitten the youngest boy in the leg, because he took away the bone I was gnawing; a bone for a bone, I thought! But they were very angry, and from that time I have been chained here, and I have lost my voice. Don't you hear how hoarse I am? Bow–wow! I can't speak like other dogs. Bow–wow! That was the end of happiness!'
The Snow–man, however, was not listening to him any more; he was looking into the room where the housekeeper lived, where the stove stood on its four iron legs, and seemed to be just the same size as the Snow–man.
'How something is cracking inside me!' he said. 'Shall I never be able to get in there? It is certainly a very innocent wish, and our innocent wishes ought to be fulfilled. I must get there, and lean against the stove, if I have to break the window first!'
'You will never get inside there!' said the yard–dog; 'and if you were to reach the stove you would disappear. Bow–wow!'
'I'm as good as gone already!' answered the Snow–man. 'I believe I'm breaking up!'
The whole day the Snow–man looked through the window; towards dusk the room grew still more inviting; the stove gave out a mild light, not at all like the moon or even the sun; no, as only a stove can shine, when it has something to feed upon. When the door of the room was open, it flared up–this was one of its peculiarities; it flickered quite red upon the Snow–man's white face.
'I can't stand it any longer!' he said. 'How beautiful it looks with its tongue stretched out like that!'
It was a long night, but the Snow–man did not find it so; there he stood, wrapt in his pleasant thoughts, and they froze, so that he cracked.
Next morning the panes of the kitchen window were covered with ice, and the most beautiful ice–flowers that even a snow–man could desire, only they blotted out the stove. The window would not open; he couldn't see the stove which he thought was such a lovely lady. There was a cracking and cracking inside him and all around; there was just such a frost as a snow–man would delight in. But this Snow–man was different: how could he feel happy?
'Yours is a bad illness for a Snow–man!' said the yard–dog. 'I also suffered from it, but I have got over it. Bow–wow!' he barked. 'The weather is going to change!' he added.
The weather did change. There came a thaw.
When this set in the Snow–man set off. He did not say anything, and he did not complain, and those are bad signs.
One morning he broke up altogether. And lo! where he had stood there remained a broomstick standing upright, round which the boys had built him!
'Ah! now I understand why he loved the stove,' said the yard–dog. 'That is the raker they use to clean out the stove! The Snow–man had a stove–raker in his body! That's what was the matter with him! And now it's all over with him! Bow–wow!'
And before long it was all over with the winter too! 'Bow–wow!' barked the hoarse yard–dog.
But the young girl sang:
Woods, your bright green garments don! Willows, your woolly gloves put on! Lark and cuckoo, daily sing–– February has brought the spring! My heart joins in your song so sweet; Come out, dear sun, the world to greet!
And no one thought of the Snow–man.
