The underlying framework.
Arooa should actually be A.R.O.O.A but that's ugly and quite slow to type, so it's Arooa. I pronounce it like Aruba but without the 'b'.
A.R.O.O.A stands for A Rip Off Of Ant, and as it started life as a cut and paste of the Ant XML framework this is quite appropriate. After the decision was made to go POJO the code base changed quite a bit and it no longer resembles Ant much, but the name is cool.
So what does Arooa do? It does all the underlying creation and configuration of jobs. It does the runtime property injection. It provides the facility for component cut and paste.
Arooa is a self contained package within oddjob. If you wanted a
framework for your POJOs that provided drag and drop between
configuration files - you could do worse than copy the
org.odddjob.arooa
package and start hacking. You might wish to call it ArooArooa, but
then again you might not.
Arooa, like many application frameworks, uses the idea of a component. There are
many definitions of a component, but in Arooa it is simply a Java Bean. So a component
is any java.lang.Object
with a no argument constructor.
Here is a really simple component.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>src/main/java/org/oddjob/devguide/FirstComponent.java}You can fire this up with oddjob using the following configuration:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>examples/devguide/component.xml}Because our component isn't Runnable, Oddjob isn't treating it as a job, so you get a boring icon and you can see some properties - but not much else.
Despite Oddjob not being particularly interested in our simple component we'll keep going with Oddjob as the basis for our introduction of Arooa, as that's how we'll most often use it. Let's look at configuration.
Properties of our Java Objects are injected using the standard Java Bean setter methods.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>src/main/java/org/oddjob/devguide/SecondComponent.java}For the properties of primitive types, their Object counterparts, or String, the property is provided in the XML configuration as an attribute. The attribute name corresponds to the property name.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>examples/devguide/component2.xml}When loaded in Oddjob we see our property has been set.
This attribute value is said to be constant because it doesn't contain any runtime properties, i.e. no ${} expressions. Constant attribute values are set when the configuration file is first loaded. Runtime properties are set only when the framework is asked to configure a component. If we make our component Runnable, Oddjob will wrap it in a Proxy object that will ask Arooa to configure our component just before the run method is called.
Arooa also supports setting indexed properties with a
setXXX(int index, Object value)
method and mapped properties
with a setXXX(String key, Object value)
method.
Here's an example which has all three property types:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>src/main/java/org/oddjob/devguide/DifferentPropertiesJob.java}In the XML configuration, the index is taken from the element order for indexed properties, and the key is taken from a special 'key' attribute for mapped properties.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>examples/devguide/properties.xml}Here's the result:
Now try resetting Oddjob. Do you see the nulls?
What's happened? When Oddjob resets it destroys the Arooa configuration that it created. During destruction the framework sets null values into all it's configured setters. This came as a by-product of cut and paste but as it forces cleanup it seems like a good idea even for properties that don't support cut and paste. When capturing indexed and mapped properties we have to write the setters quite carefully. Here's an example:
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>src/main/java/org/oddjob/devguide/IndexedAndMappedJob.java}Now this does mean that we can't support a deliberate null in a list or a map but as yet this hasn't been a problem.
To define more complicated properties of a component, Arooa has the idea of values.  Here's one.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>src/main/java/org/oddjob/devguide/Person.java}And here's a component that uses it.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>src/main/java/org/oddjob/devguide/ThirdComponent.java}Because our value is not one of the primitives or a String, the property is defined in the XML configuration as a child element where the element name corresponds to the property name.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>examples/devguide/component3.xml}And here's what it looks like in Oddjob.
But our person hasn't been set! - Why not? All Values (even ones with constant properties) are only set during runtime configuration. And that's not happening of course, because our component isn't Runnable.
Here's a Runnable version. I've added a 'formal' property to change the style of greeting - because I was getting bored (The main cause of feature creep!):
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>src/main/java/org/oddjob/devguide/HelloPersonJob.java}The configuration is pretty much as is, except with formal set to true.
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>examples/devguide/helloperson.xml}Ah! but note the <is>
element. Because our property is a Java Bean type we can use this shorthand to
save typing the class. We can't use <is> for our component definition because
the job property of Oddjob is of type java.lang.Object
, so <is> would
just create an Object - not much use.
Now when we open our configuration in Oddjob Explorer:
Our person property still isn't set (but the constant formal property has been). However when we run the job, the property gets set.
And that is a very brief introduction into Arooa.

Etch Compensation is a read-write DFM action intended to compensate for the etching process while preserving CAD specifications.
Pads and conductors will generally shrink after etching relative to design. To compensate for this shrinking, the action will enlarge features by a certain user-defined amount up to the maximum without violating spacing. If a spacing conflict arises, it may be resolved in one of two ways:
1. Non Shave Mode (Use Shaves = No, in Etch Compensate Action popup)-
copper features are enlarged up to a size less than user-specified value.
2. Shave Mode (Use Shaves =
Yes, in Etch Compensate Action popup)- copper feature will be enlarged up to
the user-specified size but will be shaved with negative features to avoid
spacing violations.
The following guidelines are applicable throughout the action:
*
When a conflict arises between spacing restrictions and optimal
compensation, the system decides for compensation by a margin of 0.01.
*
The action is designed to work on positive features only. If a
negative feature is selected the action will abort.
*
The action processes only the following features:
-
Round and square lines and surfaces
-
Round and square pads
-
Rectangular and oval pads
In some cases, the processing speed of this action is slow when operating in Local Mode. Switch to Global Mode to increase processing speed.
The report lists counts of measurements for each category.
Measurement counts are produced for each category. The standard naming convention is followed:
<layer name>_<category erf name>
When selected features are processed, an additional result attribute selected will be produced. For each processed layer its name will be:
<layer name>_<selected>
This will provide the number of selected features.
To avoid the creation of special symbols with minor differences (by only a fraction of their sizes, such as rect100x200, rect100.0001x200, rect100.0002x199.9999, etc.), a symbol size mechanism provides a solution. It rounds all sizes to the nearest value, exactly divisible by a certain symbol_resolution value.
By default, this value is set to 0.1 mil and it may be changed by changing the aper_res ERF Variable value.
See the example below, a section of an ERF file:
.units inch
...........
...........
...........
aper_res=0.2
This will set symbol_resolution value to 0.2 mil. The resulting conversion is shown in the following table:
|
Calculated Symbol Size |
Actual Symbol Size |
|
100.05 |
100.0 |
|
100.15 |
100.2 |
|
100.21 |
100.2 |

GERONIMO: AN AMERICAN LEGEND A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1993 James Berardinelli
Rating (Linear 0 to 10): 5.6
Date Released: 12/10/93 Running Length: 1:55 Rated: PG-13 (Violence)
Starring: Wes Studi, Jason Patric, Robert Duvall, Gene Hackman, Matt Damon, Kevin Tighe Director: Walter Hill Producers: Walter Hill and Neil Canton Screenplay: John Milius and Larry Gross Music: Ry Cooder Released by Columbia Pictures
GERONIMO is a "revisionist" retrospective of the United States' so-called "Geronimo Campaign," and the costs of those events to the lives of individuals and nations. The tale of how five thousand U.S. troops failed to capture a tiny band of renegade Chiricahua Apaches forms the framework for most of this movie as it attempts to redress some of the wrongs of the history books.
After I'd seen this movie, someone asked me who the good guys were. I had a hard time answering, and that points out one of GERONIMO's fundamental flaws. For the most part, its characterizations are so weak and ambivalent that the audience finds it difficult to develop much feeling for any of the people we encounter on screen, regardless of whether they're white or Native American.
This is a beautifully-photographed motion picture, although cinematographer Lloyd Ahern has a tendency to overuse red and amber filters. Nevertheless, the Utah landscape which formed the backdrop for such John Ford classics as CHEYENNE AUTUMN and RIO GRANDE is shown in its best light. If nothing else, GERONIMO at least has the look of an epic.
Wes Studi, the Cherokee actor who gave such an impassioned portrayal of Magua in last year's THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS, is more subdued as Geronimo. While Studi does his best to bring out the warring nobility and bloodlust within the legendary Apache leader, he is ultimately curtailed by a screenplay that seems interested in two things only: showing battles and giving history lessons.
Jason Patric plays Lt. Charles Gatewood, the officer given charge of arranging Geronimo's surrender. Gatewood is supposed to be torn by duty to his country and sympathy with a people his government is about to betray, but Patric does such a poor job of bringing to the fore anything but surface emotions that we lose all interest in his character and, as a result, the film loses much of its appeal.
Gene Hackman and Robert Duvall don't give their best performances here, but they're entirely believable, and they elevate the film a level during their scenes. Hackman is General George Crook, a sympathetic officer who gets replaced because Geronimo gets away from him. In a more interesting role, Duvall is Al Sieber, an Apache hunter who admits to a grudging respect for his arch rival Geronimo.
Although Patric's flat performance doesn't help matters, it's the confused and boring script that ultimately proves to be GERONIMO's undoing. The battle scenes are wonderful, but much of the exposition between them is tedious in the extreme. Also, the movie doesn't seem to know which side to sympathize with. Instead of that indecision leading to a gritty result, it creates ambivalence and apathy.
In a time when Westerns are regaining their popularity, there are bound to be a few miscues. GERONIMO is not a bad movie, but neither does it live up to its promise. The legend itself may be fascinating, but this treatment doesn't have the life necessary to be of more than passing interest. Those expecting another DANCES WITH WOLVES had better look elsewhere.

Both start

are positions relative to the current row. For example, "0" means
"current row", while "-1" means the row before the current row, and "5" means the fifth row
after the current row.
We recommend users use Window.unboundedPreceding
, Window.unboundedFollowing
,
and Window.currentRow
to specify special boundary values, rather than using integral
values directly.
A row based boundary is based on the position of the row within the partition. An offset indicates the number of rows above or below the current row, the frame for the current row starts or ends. For instance, given a row based sliding frame with a lower bound offset of -1 and a upper bound offset of +2. The frame for row with index 5 would range from index 4 to index 6.
import org.apache.spark.sql.expressions.Window
val df = Seq((1, "a"), (1, "a"), (2, "a"), (1, "b"), (2, "b"), (3, "b"))
.toDF("id", "category")

Window.partitionBy('category).orderBy('id).rowsBetween(Window.currentRow, 1)

the minimum long value (Window.unboundedPreceding

maximum long value (Window.unboundedFollowing
).public static WindowSpec rangeBetween(long start, long end)
WindowSpec
with the frame boundaries defined,
from start
(inclusive) to end
(inclusive).
Both start
and end
are relative to the current row. For example, "0" means "current row",
while "-1" means one off before the current row, and "5" means the five off after the
current row.
We recommend users use Window.unboundedPreceding
, Window.unboundedFollowing
,
and Window.currentRow
to specify special boundary values, rather than using long values
directly.
A range-based boundary is based on the actual value of the ORDER BY expression(s). An offset is used to alter the value of the ORDER BY expression, for instance if the current order by expression has a value of 10 and the lower bound offset is -3, the resulting lower bound for the current row will be 10 - 3 = 7. This however puts a number of constraints on the ORDER BY expressions: there can be only one expression and this expression must have a numerical data type. An exception can be made when the offset is unbounded, because no value modification is needed, in this case multiple and non-numeric ORDER BY expression are allowed.
import org.apache.spark.sql.expressions.Window
val df = Seq((1, "a"), (1, "a"), (2, "a"), (1, "b"), (2, "b"), (3, "b"))

QTI.JS is a Javascript-based, free and open-source, delivery engine for tests and assessments, which almost fully implements Version 2.2 of the IMS Question & Test Interoperability (QTI) specification.
Quoting IMS, "QTI enables the exchange of item (question) and test content and results data between authoring tools, test construction tools, learning platforms, assessment delivery systems, and scoring/analytics engines." First released in 1999, QTI has become the primary standard for interoperable assessment content within the education technology world, and is supported by most popular Learning Management platforms, Assessment and Question Authoring tools, and Assessment Delivery Systems.
QTI.JS supports all 21 QTI question types, all processing operators, templates, adaptive items, all feedback types, rubrics, shared assessment stimulus blocks, conditional questions, branching, selection and ordering, linear and non-linear tests, individual and simultaneous submission, results reporting, MathML and many other QTI Version 2.2 features. It is serverless, requires no configuration, and is fully themable. It is likely the most complete implementation of QTI Version 2.2 delivery features yet to be released.
QTI.JS is currently in preview/beta release, and is aiming for production release and certification by IMS in early 2019. The source code of QTI.JS has been released on GitHub under an MIT license.
This site provides sample QTI assessment tests delivered by QTI.JS. This site is entirely static, running from an Amazon S3 bucket, underscoring that QTI.JS provides serverless delivery of QTI content.
For best results, use a recent version of Google Chrome, since other browsers have not yet received much attention.
| Test | Description |
|---|---|
| items (nonlinear) | Includes all the example QTI assessment items from the IMS QTI Implementation Guide Version 2.2, plus a few we added. Sixty items in all, which show all 21 QTI interaction types, templates, adaptive items, composite items, MathML support, rubrics, all types of feedback, and many other QTI features. Uses the "qtijs" theme, which adds the QTI.JS logo and a few other tweaks to the "basic" (default) theme. "Non-linear" scrolling-based navigation. |
| items (linear) | The same items as above, but using a "linear" slideshow-style navigation. |
| BBQs3test | Another IMS-distributed QTI assessment. Includes more MathML examples, a variety of basic interaction and feedback types, and custom response and outcome processing. Non-linear. |
| saxony | The "Saxony Interaction Mix" test distributed by IMS. In German, it shows the most frequently used QTI interactions according to the Saxony Department of Education, as well as feedback and rubricBlocks. Non-linear. |
| english_basicLevel | A test with questions in German for students of English. Interesting mainly because it tests the item selection and ordering features of QTI. Non-linear. |
| english_highLevel | Another German test, this time for more advanced students of English. Demonstrates the use of rubricBlocks to display stimulus content. Non-linear. |
| tao | A test exported as a QTI content package from TAO, with fifteen of the out-of-the-box TAO sample items, simply unzipped without any modification. Demonstrates interoperability of TAO and QTI.JS, and support by QTI.JS of the somewhat complex QTI content packaging structures used by TAO. Shows the QTI.JS "basic" (default) theme without any tweaks. Linear. |
| ccQTIpackage | Items distributed by IMS to show a minimalistic profile of QTI, containing multiple choice and text-entry interactions, standard response processing templates, and inline and modal feedback. The QTI.JS take on this package adds a custom QTI.JS theme, responsive with two columns, falling back to one column on narrow devices. Non-linear. |
| newsquiz | A QTI implementation of a New York Times "News Quiz", featuring a custom theme to emulate the original Times style and branding. Features multiple endAttemptInteractions per item, and modalFeedback. Non-linear. |
| material | A QTI test with a custom QTI.JS theme designed for mobile devices, featuring Google's Material Design. Shows QTI preConditions, selection/ordering and custom styling of choiceInteractions. This example uses a qti.local.js script to help with some of the Material Design animations. Linear. |
| parcc | A QTI test with a set of 2017 Released Items from PARCC; specifically, the Grade 5 English Language Arts/Literacy - Literary Analysis Task. The QTI rendition of these items features choiceInteraction, extendedTextInteraction, gapMatchInteraction, and multiple assessmentStimulus elements. The QTI.JS theme is custom and features an imaginary PARCC livery, showing how QTI tests can be presented using QTI.JS in a manner which maintains institutional or organizational identity. The theme also emulates the navigation style of the Pearson TestNav8 practice tests for PARCC: non-linear but slideshow-style. (This is how most QTI delivery engines, other than QTI.JS, interpret non-linear navigation mode.) Some of the features of the custom theme require support from a qti.local.js script. |

See Apple’s new 16-inch MacBook Pro design up close with augmented reality
by Michael PotuckTo help customers visualize what the 16-inch MacBook Pro will look and feel like, Apple has an augmented reality tool to place the new notebook on your desk or workspace.
Apple has used an AR visualizer tool like this before with the announcement of the Mac Pro back in June. Notably, that made it easy to create some slick iPhone wallpapers in addition to getting a better feel for the size of the Mac Pro.
Along with the physical footprint change and display size change from the 15- to 16-inch MacBook Pro, Apple has the AR visualizer tool available again.
To use it, grab your iPhone or iPad and head to this webpage. Swipe down a bit and look for “See MacBook Pro in AR.”
Once you’ve loaded the AR notebook, you can pinch to zoom (up to 1,000%+), use two fingers to spin it around, and more. There’s also the option to view it in object or AR mode.
Here’s how it looks:
For a closer look, check out iJustine’s early hands-on with the 16-inch MacBook Pro and comparison to the 15-inch MacBook Pro.
More on the new MacBook Pro and Mac Pro:

- 16-inch MacBook Pro: Early hands-on demos compare size, keyboard, speakers, more
- Apple’s new 16-inch MacBook Pro still uses a 720p webcam and lacks Wi-Fi 6 — unlike iPhone 11

A friendship forged from a fall
by Ben SmithAN 86-year-old man has been reunited with his ‘guardian angel’ after coming face-to-face with the truck driver who rescued him after a fall.
Sam Denic was walking from Beeliar Village Shopping Centre on October 10 when he lost his footing and fell in between two cars.
Mr Denic, who sustained a broken nose, remembers only the start of the fall.
“I thought I was OK, but my head was hurting and then I looked and there was blood running down past my nose,” he said.
Mr Denic’s calls of agony attracted the attention of truck driver Louis Aspinall, who had just finished a delivery.
After locating Mr Denic, Mr Aspinall sprung into action. He sat the older man upright, tended to his injuries and attempted to attract the attention of other passersbys.
“When I got to him, the pool of blood was bigger than a table so I knew he’d lost a lot of blood,” Mr Aspinall said.
“I was using my shirt and hat to try stem the bleeding around Sam’s head.”
After catching the attention of a fellow truck driver, Mr Aspinall got him to call an ambulance and activated the fall detector pendent around Mr Denic’s neck.
Mr Aspinall said once people lent their assistance he realised the severity of the situation.
“This lovely old lady came along and picked up all the shopping Sam had dropped that had gone under the cars,” he said.
“She bought it back to Coles so they looked after it for him. And people from the shopping centre bought out rags to put on Sam’s injuries because my shirt and hat were gone.”
Despite his heroics on the day, Mr Aspinall said he had his own hero in the form of his boss Ian, who calmed him down over the phone after the incident.
“After seeing so much blood and looking after Sam, the adrenalin kicked in. I could’ve run around the local school oval four or five times,” he said.
“I rang my boss and he could tell by the tone in my voice something was wrong. He made me sit down and have a coffee before getting back in the truck.
“My mind was racing and he sensed that. He rang me two or three times just to make sure I was OK.”
Mr Denic said he was incredibly thankful for Mr Aspinall’s aid and met up with him to buy him a coffee this week.

Mr Aspinall said he was just lucky he was in the right place at the right time.
“I lost my shirt and my best fishing hat, but I gained a new friend,” he said.

a violation of the trademark rights, the program has been renamed to

Do-It-Yourself: Casting a Resin King
One of the many enduring qualities of tafl games is the simplicity of the pieces. No matter what size board or what rule variation (with perhaps the exception of Berserk Hnefatafl), a set only need pieces of 3 distinctions: attackers, defenders and a king. This makes it easier to create your own set. It is common to see decorative glass gems as hnefatafl pieces. In the last post, we started to make a Basic Brandub game with these. Let’s upgrade the set a bit with a hand-casted resin king piece.
Tucked away in a drawer, I had an old chess pawn given to me by my best friend in grade school. I’ve had this pawn since I was 7 or 8 years old. It reminds me of my first friendship and being that tafl games are great to play with friends, it was a fitting piece to cast. Obviously, pick an item that works for you and give your set a personal touch.
Using a silicone mold making kit, I carefully follow the instructions and made a mold of the chess pawn. This stuff is messy and gooey, so be sure to wear gloves and cover the work area with newspapers. The mold takes about 6 hours to cure, so be patient. It took a few tries to get it right, but the result was a durable mold I can use over and over again.
There are many types of resin to choose from. Alumilite makes a fast curing, beginner friendly resin that works great for small pieces. Like the mold making kit, it’s important to follow the instructions carefully and use gloves while casting the piece.
After about 20 minutes, I had a perfect copy of my original chess pawn that makes a great king piece in the Basic Brandub set.
One game’s pawn is another game’s king. Such is life.


Corduroy provides a python-friendly wrapper around CouchDB’s HTTP-based API. Behind the scenes it hooks into the asynchronous i/o routines from your choice of Tornado or the Requests & Gevent modules.
Using corduroy you can query the database without blocking your server’s event loop, making it ideal for CouchApp micro-middleware or scripted batch operations.
As a real world(ish) example of working with Corduroy, consider this pair of Tornado event handlers which update a url-specifed document then query a view. The first uses explicit callbacks to resume execution after each response from the database is received:
{{{why_jumpy}}}An alternative syntax is available (when using Tornado) through the use of the @relax
decorator. Instead of defining callbacks for each database operation, the library can be called as
part of a yield
expression.
Tornado’s generator
module will intercept these yield
s and provide a callback automatically. The result
is code that looks quite sequential but will still execute asynchronously:
For a gentle introduction to Corduroy (and CouchDB in general), take a look at the Guide. Documentation for all of Corduroy’s module-level classes can be found in the Reference section.
Corduroy can be found on PyPi and can be installed
with your choice of pip
or easy_install
.
Download corduroy-{{version}}.tar.gz or clone the repository.
tar xzf corduroy-{{version}}.tar.gz cd corduroy-{{version}} python setup.py install
If you’re writing a Tornado app, Corduroy can use its pure-python HTTP client by installing with:
pip install corduroy tornado
Or if you’d prefer the libcurl-based client (which supports pooling and other niceties), use:
pip install corduroy tornado pycurl
If pycurl complains (I’m looking at you, OS X), try:
env ARCHFLAGS="-arch x86_64" pip install pycurl
Gevent users can install with:
pip install corduroy requests gevent
The library can also be used with plain-old blocking i/o:
pip install corduroy requests
Corduroy is released under the BSD license. Use it freely and in good health.
Corduroy is derived from Christopher Lenz’s excellent couchdb-python module and inherits much of its API (and most of its test cases) from that codebase. It is also indebted to Eric Naeseth’s mind-expanding Swirl library which first acquainted me with the idea of using generators to simulate sequential code.


Something amazing is about to happen!
But, Throft Team is still on the way..
Hang on until we get there to begin the journey with you ;)

Dave Continues To Apply Pressure On 2019 With "Paper Cuts"
Dave is back on a U.K. drill tip with "Paper Cuts."
by Aron A.Paper Cuts
Dave
Editor Rating: VERY HOTTTTT
User Rating: very hottttt - 83% (6)
It's been an incredible year for Dave and one that's well-deserved. The U.K. bred rapper released his debut album Psychodrama which earned him the Mercury Prize award in the U.K. On top of that, he starred in Top Boy as Modie and contributed two songs to the soundtrack. As we approach the end of the year, he's back with a brand new drop that teeters closer towards U.K. drill than we've ever heard him before.
The anticipation surrounding his latest drop, "Paper Cuts" is real. For months, fans have eagerly awaited for its release since a clip of it surfaced online. It's a certified banger that finds Dave flexing his lyrical prowess as he usually does over a haunting drill instrumental. It's another side of Dave that we've only heard in bits.
Peep it below.
Quotable Lyrics
So, what are you sayin'?
I don't about dem man
But us man know not to write statements
My bro got shots for his flavors

The Web
The Web consists of many servers that are connected to each other and talk using the Hyper-text transfer protocol (http). Browsers fetch the Hyper-text markup language document (HTML doc) and render it for display. Those HTML documents can contain plain text, images, links, videos, and many more items.
HTML
Hyper-text markup language (HTML) is used to format pages. It can do so by using tag elements. An element in its most basic form consists of an opening tag, some content, and a closing tag. For example <tag>content</tag>.
One needs to be careful as the computer will always do as told - even if there are mistakes in the code, which it will not notice.
Containers Next to inline tags that will format the text in line, there are block elements that create containers, like invisible boxes,
for the content to reside in.Dr.Google is my friend
No need to remember everything.  There is too much code out there and one will not use everything all the time.
Don't be shy - just try!
There are many useful resoures out there to help us get started with coding. Learning by doing will prove useful and give immediate feedback.For example, how to create links or include images. Here is the homemade picture proof:


An ordered set of four numbers. Sometimes a quaternion is written in the form x0 + ix1 + jx2 + kx3; sometimes it is considered to be a scalar and a three-component vector.
Quaternions written as above can be added and multiplied, using the laws:
$$\begin{aligned}
i^{2} & = j^{2} = & k^{2} = -1 \\
ij & = k = & -ji \\
jk & = i = & -kj \\
ki & = j = & -ik.\end{aligned}$$
The set of quaternions is a 4-dimensional vector space over R. A basis of this space is 1, i, j, k.

| Category: containers |
Component type: concept |
Description
A Front Insertion Sequence is a Sequence
where it is possible to insert an element at the beginning, or to
access the first element, in amortized constant time. Front Insertion
Sequences have special member functions as a shorthand for those
operations.

Pop front
|
a.pop_front()
|
!a.empty()
|
Equivalent to a.erase(a.begin())
|
a.size() is decremented by 1.
|
Complexity guarantees
Front, push front, and pop front are amortized constant time.
[2]
Invariants
|
Symmetry of push and pop
|
push_front() followed by pop_front() is a null operation.
|
Models
Notes
[1]
Front is actually defined in Sequence,
since it is always possible to implement it in amortized constant
time. Its definition is repeated here, along with push front and pop
front, in the interest of clarity.
[2]
This complexity guarantee is the only reason that front(),
push_front(), and pop_front() are defined: they
provide no additional functionality. Not every sequence must define
these operations, but it is guaranteed that they are efficient if they
exist at all.

1-hour video call with me
Intros to my network (subject to a good fit)
No-bullshit feedback
In-person meeting (if I am in your area)
Dollars ($) and $Victory coins.
I am using Stripe to process payments so I'll never see your credit card information. Short answer, yes.
Thanks! I'll reach out to you via email in the next 48 hours and we'll find a time to have our call.
If you are not satisfied from our call, you'll get your money back.
If you let me know 24 hours in advance, yes. After that I won't be able to reschedule our call and you'll have to buy another slot.


Hosting Detexify costs money and if it helps you may consider helping to pay the hosting bill.
Lucky you. The Mac app is finally stable enough. See how it works on Vimeo. Download the latest version here.
Restriction: In addition to the LaTeX command the unlicensed version will copy a reminder to purchase a license to the clipboard when you select a symbol.
You can purchase a license here: Buy Detexify for Mac
If you need help contact<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Anyone who works with LaTeX knows how time-consuming it can be to find a symbol in symbols-a4.pdf that you just can't memorize. Detexify is an attempt to simplify this search.
Just draw the symbol you are looking for into the square area above and look what happens!
The symbol may not be trained enough
or it is not yet in the list of supported symbols.
In the first case you can do the training yourself.
In the second case just drop me a line (mail@danielkirs.ch)!
I am rewriting parts right now and training isn't functional in this version.
You could spare some time training Detexify.
You could also look at the source of the
frontend
and
backend
on Github.
If you really, really like this
you can also donate.
The backend server is running on Digital Ocean (referral link) so you can also reduce my hosting costs by using that referral link.
Hosting of detexify costs some money. If Detexify helps you, you might want to help cover these costs.
Be sure you use a modern browser. A recent version of Chrome or Firefox should do the trick.
No. Have a look at http://shapecatcher.com for Unicode.
Philipp Kühl had the initial idea and Daniel Kirsch made it happen.

Details
The national research and development network was created by the National College for School Leadership.
In this paper, research literature is used to advance 9 strong claims about the characteristics of highly successful pedagogies:
-
Effective pedagogies give serious consideration to pupil voice.
-
Effective pedagogies depend on behaviour (what teachers do), knowledge and understanding (what
teachers know) and beliefs (why teachers act as they do).
-
Effective pedagogies involve clear thinking about longer term learning outcomes as well as short-term
goals.
-
Effective pedagogies build on pupils’ prior learning and experience.
-
Effective pedagogies involve scaffolding pupil learning.
-
Effective pedagogies involve a range of techniques, including whole-class and structured group work,
guided learning and individual activity.
-
Effective pedagogies focus on developing higher order thinking and meta-cognition, and make good use
of dialogue and questioning in order to do so.
-
Effective pedagogies embed assessment for learning.
-
Effective pedagogies are inclusive and take the diverse needs of a range of learners, as well as matters
of student equity, into account.


Homeless camp continues
by John LawlessIt was a hot topic at this afternoon's city council, and ultimately to no avail.
Both of Councillor Scott Anderson's motions to shake up the camping situation in Vernon were soundly defeated in a motion vote.
The first item on the agenda was the camping hours, which are currently 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. Anderson wanted to change the hours to 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., but points brought up by Councillor Brian Quiring led to the defeat of the motion.
"The Mission opens at 9, the Salvation Army food bank opens at 9 and the clinic opens at 9:30," said Quiring. "If we change the hours to 7 a.m., then people would just be hanging out in front of these places anyway."
The second issue was moving the camping location from Polson Park to City Hall.
Anderson said it wasn't fair to the citizens of Vernon to be fearful of Polson Park because of needles and drug use, among other things, and that the camp should be moved to City Hall. Councillor Dalvir Nahal wasn't on board with that action.
"I don't feel like this is a solution," says Nahal. "This is merely shifting the problem. You say we would be giving back Polson Park but then we would be taking City Hall away from the people."
Anderson agreed with the point Nahal made, but only to an extent.
"Shifting it is the point, and it puts it right in our faces," he said. "Moving the camp here and what issues that may bring outweighs the positive aspect of people being able to use Polson Park with their kids."
Ultimately that motion was defeated as well, as council shifted to discussing the annual homeless count in Vernon.

Project Description - Background
Developing a Project Planner in CSS, HTML and JavaScript
- First as a developer relearning how to code in open source, background is in programming languages like Fortran, C, Access, embedded SQL with Pascal on Vax miniframes.
- So sharing this example as "working progress", personal project to develop my coding skills, and sharing with you on You Tube so I can connect to other developers in the same situation.
- So this code is not production code, is not object orientated, its just my best guess at getting working an idea I have and hopefully by doing so going to learn a better way of coding open source and improve my development skills.
- Also hope by sharing this work that i'll connect with other coders like yourself, that we can learn from each other and build better applications

Illustrates how to spotlight the middle item in the carousel. Several techniques illustrated:
- Highlight the middle item by switching between a style class 'non-spotlight' (all other visible
items have this class) with the style class 'spotlight')
- To accomplish the offset start (so that item 1 starts in the middle) set scrollBeforeAmount to 2 and scrollAfterAmount to 2. This will allow scrolling between -1 and 17, yet loads only happen from 1 to 15 (size). Also the firstVisible is set to -1.
- The slight bounce is accomplished by setting the animationMethod to YAHOO.util.Easing.backBoth.
- carousel.addItem() now allows a third parameter: itemClass that we initially set to 'non-spotlight'
- When the user hits next or previous we turn off the spotlight (switching classes) for the previous
middle (which is actually the previous firstVisible -- carousel.priorFirstVisible) and highlight the new one
- Clicking on an image in the carousel will scroll to the item and show it in the preview.
