Getting Started
Here you will find both basic and advanced tutorials to help you get started using Piccolo2D. All tutorials provide examples in both Java and C#. This section assumes you have read Piccolo2D Patterns and have a basic understanding of the concepts presented there.Piccolo2D.Java - Out of the Box
This tutorial will help you figure out where to begin. It will guide you from downloading Piccolo2D to writing and compiling your first zoomable user interface.
1. Get the Pre-Requisites
In order to write your first Piccolo2D.Java application, you will need to make sure that you have the following:
- Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE)
- To run any Piccolo2D.Java code, you must have the Java 2 Platform installed on your machine. If you do not have the Java 2 Platform, you should first download the J2SE installer and install the Java 2 Platform.
- Eclipse IDE
- This tutorial assumes that you are using Eclipse as your development environment. Eclipse is not required to write Piccolo2D.Java applications, but we do recommend using it. Once you have installed the Java 2 Platform, you can download and install eclipse.
- Piccolo2D classes
- Of course, you will need Piccolo2D.Java. You can download the Jar files or the full source code from the download page.
2. Setting up the Environment
These steps will help you setup the Eclipse environment to begin Piccolo2D.Java development.
Add Piccolo2D to Eclipse
- Open the Eclipse IDE.
- Choose File > New Project, and create a new Java project named "piccolo2d".
- Locate the file
piccolo2d-xxx.zip
, which you downloaded in step 1. Extract the zipped package using WinZip or another compression utility. - Renamed the extracted
Piccolo2D-xxx
folder to the name (my choice waspiccolo2d
) of the eclipse project that you created in step a. - Locate the Eclipse workspace folder. This folder is located inside the folder that holds your Eclipse installation.
- Drag the renamed
piccolo2d
folder into the workspace folder, replacing the existingpiccolo2d
folder in the workspace. - Last of all go into Eclipse and right-click on the
piccolo2d
project and choose "Refresh" from the popup menu. - Piccolo2D's classes should now be visible in eclipse.
3. Building Your First ZUI
These steps will guide you through writing your first zoomable user interface with Piccolo2D.Java.
3.1. Create a new Java project in Eclipse.
Here you will create a new Eclipse java project.
- In Eclipse choose File > New Project and create another "Java Project". This time name the project "Hello World".
3.2. Add References to Piccolo2D
These steps will add references to the Piccolo2D project so that you can use Piccolo2D's classes in your own project.
- Right click on your new "Hello World" project and choose "Properties".
- In the properties panel click on the "Java Build Path" list item on the left.
- Now click on the "Projects" tab and choose the "Add..." button. Check to add the "piccolo2d" project that you created earlier.
- Now your "Hello World" project is setup to use classes from the "piccolo2d" project.
3.3. Subclass JFrame
Next we will subclass the standard Swing class JFrame.
- Select your "Hello World" project and then choose File > New > Class.
- Name the new class "HelloWorldExample".
- Choose the Superclass javax.swing.JFrame.
- Check the box labeled "public static void main(String[] args)" so that a main method will be created for your class.
- Click the Finish button to create you new class.
3.4. Write the Code
Now we will write our first Piccolo2D code.
- At the top of the screen add the following import statements so that we can use the
PCanvas and PText classes.
import javax.swing.JFrame; import edu.umd.cs.piccolo.PCanvas; import edu.umd.cs.piccolo.nodes.PText;
- The constructor is used to initialize and wire up piccolo2d, so create one like this:
private HelloWorldExample() { final PCanvas canvas = new PCanvas(); final PText text = new PText("Hello World"); canvas.getLayer().addChild(text); add(canvas); setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); setSize(600, 400); setVisible(true); }
Last of all override main method so that a new instance of your "HelloWorldExample" class gets created by main. The final code should look like this:import javax.swing.JFrame; import edu.umd.cs.piccolo.PCanvas; import edu.umd.cs.piccolo.nodes.PText; public class HelloWorldExample extends JFrame { private HelloWorldExample() { final PCanvas canvas = new PCanvas(); final PText text = new PText("Hello World"); canvas.getLayer().addChild(text); add(canvas); setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); setSize(600, 400); setVisible(true); } public static void main(String[] args) { new HelloWorldExample(); } }
That's it! You've just written your first zooming application. The first line creates a new PText node and initializes it to the string "Hello World". And, the second line adds the new node to the main layer of the canvas. Zooming and panning are there for free.
3.5. Run the Code
Now let's see Piccolo2D in Action
- Right-click on your "HelloWorldExample" class and choose Run As > Java Application
- You should see the text "Hello World"
- Click anywhere in the window with the left mouse button and drag to pan the camera around.
- Click anywhere in the window with the right mouse button and drag to the right to zoom in on the point. Drag to the left to zoom out.
The reason this works is because the zoom and pan event handlers are installed by default. See the Defining User Interaction tutorial for more details.


Rape suspect burnt to death by mob in Limpopo
by Riaan GroblerThe South African Police Service (SAPS) in Mphephu outside Makhado, Limpopo, are on the lookout for suspects who assaulted and set alight two men during separate mob justice incidents that took place on Friday.
In the first incident, police responded to a complaint from community members at about 08:00 after a body of man was found at Tshituni tsha Fhasi village near the Nwanedi River, SAPS spokesperson Brigadier Motlafela Mojapelo said.
"When police arrived at the scene, they found the charred remains of a 27-year-old man, identified as Elikana Makondelele. The body had open wounds and his legs tightened with an electric wire. The motive behind the killing is unknown at this stage but police investigations are ongoing," said Mojapelo.

That evening, at about 18:00, the community of Raliphaswa Tshikhwani village allegedly stoned and set alight a man they suspected of raping a girl.
"Police attended to an attempted rape incident of a 6-year-old girl. While they were busy with their investigations, they received a complaint of mob justice, and responded immediately. When they arrived at the scene, the person was already dead and community members had left the scene. Various objects like stones and bricks were left next to the body."
No arrests
The deceased has been identified as Lutendo Raswiswi, 35, from Matanda village.
In both incidents, police have opened cases of murder and no arrests have been made yet.
"A manhunt has been launched for the suspects responsible for these acts of criminality," said Mojapelo.
"Anyone who may provide information about the perpetrators should contact Lieutenant Colonel Emmanuel Mphephu on<PHONE_NUMBER>, the Crime Stop number on 08600 10111 or the nearest police station."
The provincial commissioner of the SAPS in Limpopo, Lieutenant General Nneke Ledwaba, has condemned the killings and urged all members of the community to report any criminal activity to the police and refrain from resorting to acts of vigilantism.
Ledwaba said that perpetrators of these "barbaric acts be hunted down and brought to book".


MySQL is Relational Database Management system which is free Open Source Software Under GNU License. It is also supported by Oracle Company .It is fast , scalable, easy to use database management System. MySQL support many operation system like Windows, Linux, MacOS etc.
MySQL is Structured Query Language which is used to manipulate, manage and retrieve data with the help of various Queries.
MySQL is developed and supported by MySQL AB which is a Swedish Company and written in C and C++ programming language. It was developed by Michael Widenius and David Hughes .It is often used to say that MySQL is named after the name of daughter of the co-founder MIchael Widenius whose name is ‘My’.
Architecture of MySQL:
Architecture of MySQL describes the relation among the different components of MySQL System. MySQL follow Client-Server Architecture. It is designed so that end user that is Clients can access the resources from Computer that is server using various networking services. The Architecture of MySQL contain following major layer’s :
- Client
- Server
- Storage Layer
Client Layer:
This layer is the topmost layer in the above diagram. The Client give request instructions to the Serve with the help of Client Layer .The Client make request through Command Prompt or through GUI screen by using valid MySQL commands and expressions .If the Expressions and commands are valid then the output is obtained on the screen. Some important services of client layer are :
- Connection Handling.
- Authentication.
- Security.
Connection Handling :
When a client send request to the server and server will accept the request and the client is connected .. When Client is connected to the server at that time , a client get it’s own thread for it’s connection. With the help of this thread all the queries from client side is executed.
Authentication :
Authentication is performed on the server side when client is connected to the MySQL server. Authentication is done with the help of username and password.
Security :
After authentication when the client gets connected successfully to MySQL server, the server will check that a particular client has the privileges to issue in certain queries against MySQL server.
Server Layer:
The second layer of MySQL architecture is responsible for all logical functionalities of relational database management system of MySQL. This Layer of MySQL System is also known as “Brain of MySQL Architecture”. When the Client give request instructions to the Server and the server gives the output as soon as the the instruction is matched. The various sub components of MySQL server are:
- Thread Handling –
When a client send request to the server and server will accept the request and the client is connected .. When Client is connected to the server at that time , a client get it’s own thread for it’s connection. This thread is provided by thread handling of Server Layer. Also the queries of client side which is executed by the thread is also handled by Thread Handling module. - Parser –
A Parser is a type of Software Component that built a data structure(parse tree) of given input . Before parsing lexical analysis is done i.e. input is broken into number of tokens . After the data is available in the smaller elements parser perform Syntax Analysis , Semantics Analysis after that parse tree is generated as output. - Optimizer –
As soon as the parsing is done , various types of optimization techniques are applied at Optimizer Block. These techniques may include rewriting the query, order of scanning of tables and choosing the right indexes to use etc. - Query Cache –
Query Cache stores the complete result set for inputted query statement. Eve before Parsing , MySQL Server consult query cache . When client write a query , if the query written by client is identical in the cache then the server simply skip the parsing, optimization and even execution, it just simply display the output from the cache. - Buffer and Cache –
Cache and will buffer store the previous query or problem asked by user. When User write a query then it firstly goes to Query Cache then query cache will check that the same query or problem is available in the cache. If the same query is available then it will provide output without interfering Parser, Optimizer. - Table Metadata Cache –
The metadata cache is a reserved area of memory used for tracking information on databases, indexes, or objects. The greater the number of open databases, indexes, or objects, the larger the metadata cache size. - Key Cache –
A key cache is an index entry that uniquely identifies an object in a cache. By default, edge servers cache content based on the entire resource path and a query string.
Storage Layer:
This Storage Engine Layer of MySQL Architecture make it’s unique and most preferable for developer’s . Due to this Layer MySQL layer is counted as the mostly used RDBMS and is widely used. In MySQL server , for different situations and requirement’s different types of storage engines are used which are InnoDB ,MyISAM , NDB ,Memory etc. These storage engines are used as pluggable storage enginer where tables created by user are plugged with them.
Features of MySQL:
- MySQL language is easy to use as compared to other programming language like C,C++, Java etc. By learning with some basic command we can work , create and interact with Database.
- MySQL consist of Data Security layer which protect the data from violator. Also, passwords are encrypted in MySQL.
- MySQL follow Client-Server Architecture where Client request Commands and instructions and Server will produce output as soon as the instruction is matched.
- MySQL is free to use under Community version of it. So we can download it from MySQL website and work on it freely.
- MySQL use multithreading which makes it Scalable. It can handle any amount of data .The default file size limit is 4 GB, but we can increase it according to our need.
- MySQL is considered as one of the fast database. It’s fastness is determined on the basis of large number of benchmark tests.
- MySQL is very flexible because it supports large number of embedded systems.
- MySQL is compatible to run on various operating system such as Windows, MacOS , Linux etc.
- MySQL allow transactions to be rolled back, commit and cash recovery.
- It has low memory leakage problem which increase its memory efficiency.
- MySQL version 8.0 provide dual password support , one is a current password and another is secondary password. With the help of this we can create new password.
- MySQL provide feature of Partitioning which improve performance of large databases.

I grew up in northern California in the 1970s with an artist mother,
Jill Knuth, and a computer scientist father, Don Knuth.
I later attended Brown University where I majored in Art and Anthropology.
My interests in culture and design led to a Master’s degree in Material Culture from the University of Pennsylvania.
After graduate school, in addition to being a full-time mom, I worked as a professional writer, editor, and proofreader.
Design that WORKS is a lifelong passion, as is the pursuit of harmony between form and function. I love to make things that people actually use.

Tidy Data¶
Tidy data refers to a specific way of organizing data. Each observation is in a row and there is a column for each variable. This is sometimes called long format. The alternative format is wide format where all of the observations for a unit/group are in separate columns in a single row. Many plotting and analysis tools assume that data is in tidy format.
Pandas has functions for switching between tidy/long and wide making it easy to organize data whichever way is most convenient.
We will create some sample wide data to demonstrate
[1]:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({'Subject': ['a', 'b', 'c'],
'TX1': [1, 2, 3],
'TX2': [2, 4, 6]})
df
[1]:
| Subject | TX1 | TX2 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | a | 1 | 2 |
| 1 | b | 2 | 4 |
| 2 | c | 3 | 6 |
The melt function is used to convert wide to long. id_vars
are the variables and value_vars
are the measurements
[2]:
pd.melt(df, id_vars=['Subject'], value_vars=['TX1', 'TX2'])
[2]:
| Subject | variable | value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | a | TX1 | 1 |
| 1 | b | TX1 | 2 |
| 2 | c | TX1 | 3 |
| 3 | a | TX2 | 2 |
| 4 | b | TX2 | 4 |
| 5 | c | TX2 | 6 |
Variable and value names can be assigned using var_name
and value_name
, respectively.
[3]:
long = pd.melt(df, id_vars=['Subject'], value_vars=['TX1', 'TX2'],
var_name='Treatment', value_name='Response')
long
[3]:
| Subject | Treatment | Response | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | a | TX1 | 1 |
| 1 | b | TX1 | 2 |
| 2 | c | TX1 | 3 |
| 3 | a | TX2 | 2 |
| 4 | b | TX2 | 4 |
| 5 | c | TX2 | 6 |
To go from long to wide, use the pivot function.
[4]:
wide = pd.pivot(long, index='Subject', columns='Treatment', values='Response')
wide
[4]:
| Treatment | TX1 | TX2 |
|---|---|---|
| Subject | ||
| a | 1 | 2 |
| b | 2 | 4 |
| c | 3 | 6 |
To get the dataframe all the way back to where we started reset the index and remove the columns name
[5]:
wide.reset_index(level=0, inplace=True)
wide.columns.name = None
wide
[5]:
| Subject | TX1 | TX2 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | a | 1 | 2 |
| 1 | b | 2 | 4 |
| 2 | c | 3 | 6 |

Money Play. How should Red play 53?
pips Red=108 White=173
(CorrectAnswer= 0/0, ErrorScore= 0)
This position is an object lesson in moving checkers round the board while your opponent is on the bar. Historically people played these positions far too safely.
The key point is that the blots protect themselves insomuch as if White does enter from the bar and hit, he may have to give up a point to do so, exposing two blots, or he may have to hit loose even though Red still has a five-point board.
Over the board 21/13 was played but that is too safe and leaves Red susceptible to rolling a bad double later on.
The correct play is 18/15, 18/13 taking the risk now while White is still on the bar. It looks very risky but any other play is at least a bad error.

About Me
I'm Maryam Guppy and I am currently a student in the University of Texas boot camp studying the MERN stack. I graduated from the University of Arkansas with a degree in Information Systems. Once I graduated, I moved to Kansas City and worked for a company called Cerner, where I was an implementation consultant. I later took an IT Audit job in Austin and have been in the audit field for over 5 years. After much consideration, I have decided to switch my career focus to be more technical and am really looking forward to finding a job in the Web Development field!

Pretty much out of the blue one day my friend asked me if I wanted to try salvia. I accepted and I loaded up a bowl filled with weed on the bottom and salvia 5x on top. The salvia burned quicker so I got a lungful of just salvia smoke. It was pleasant tasting and less harsh than marijuana smoke but it was still extremely difficult to hold it in for 30 seconds like my friend had instructed me. On about the second or third hit I got this strong indescribable feeling, the only thing I could compare it two was like having my head shoved underwater.
My vision started having this weird rippling effect. It was as if my vision was a body of water that was completely still when Iím sober but under the influence of this drug there was a current flowing through it. Itís all very hard to describe. I started getting a mild panicky feeling and started having thoughts like: 'I donít want to do this' 'Why am I doing this?' 'I want this to stop' But those thoughts only rushed through my head for a fraction of a second, I was then hit with this strong feeling of absolute peace and mental clarity.
I stared off into the trees in the distance and felt a strong connection with nature as they swayed in the wind, the birds chirping, the sun shining, the ants crawling on the ground, it all seemed so beautiful at the time. Iím not really an outdoors type of guy but I realized at that moment how beautiful nature really is. All the while my friend was telling me a story about something that happened to him that day. I wasnít listening to a word he said. It wasnít trying to be rude but he seemed so distant and far away, like he was talking to me from some other plane of reality. I felt like attempting to communicate with him was useless because we were so far apart at that moment.
As the peak affects were fading I started to smoke the MJ that was left in the bowl. I canít tell if the salvia enhanced the weed or of it was just really good shit but I was quite stoned for the next 3 hours. It was different from most Cannabis highs I have had in the past, this was more euphoric and peaceful without a hint of paranoia or lethargy. Marijuana usually makes me feel tired and heavy and somewhat cloudy-minded. But this time I felt ďlightĒ and slightly energized and very clearheaded like a mild cocaine buzz. The whole experience was very ďdreamlikeĒ as other people have described it. I would most definitely try salvia again but I felt like the experience lacked something, I would probably try to get the 10x if possible next time. I give salvia a thumbs-up and would recommend combining it with some good, strong cannabis.

Optionally specify the URL for your Server installation, e.g. http://yourendpoint.yourendpoint/hudson/. This value will be used to generate links back to your Server from Mattermost and should end with a forward slash.
This is necessary because the Server cannot reliably detect such a URL from within itself.


 In groups of {{ players_per_group }} participants, you are to submit preferences over a selection of schools. You can choose over {{ nr_courses }} schools in total. Also, each school has a different capacity of participants. However, not only the members of your group submit their preferences for the schools, but also the schools have priorities over the members of your group. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Every available school is linked to a potential payoff. These payoffs can vary within the group. Imagine the payoff as a representation of you much you enjoy being allocated with a certain school. In this experiment, the payoffs - and therefore you personal joy - are given by the experimenter. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} The following table sums up all the information you have in the experiment. Please keep in mind that the table is not necessarily the same for all your group members. {% endblocktrans %}
| {% trans "Index" %} | {% for i in indices %}{% trans "S" %}{{ i }} | {% endfor %}

{% trans "Potential Payoff" %}
{% if Constants.show_types and Constants.nr_types > 1 %}

| {% trans "Schools' priorities (... out of" %} {{ players_per_group }}) |
{% for i in priorities %}
{{ i }} | {% endfor %}
| {% trans "Capacities" %} | {% for i in capacities %}{{ i }} | {% endfor %}
{% trans "How are schools allocated?" %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} In the first step, every student applies for the school stated as his/her top preference. Each school then reviews all applications of participants and assigns the student to it in the order of its priority list until either its capacity is depleted or there are no applications left. All student that were assigned to a school and all schools with depleted capacity are removed. All remaining student are considered in this step and apply for the school stated as their second highest preference. Each remaining school then reviews all applications of student and assigns the student to it in the order of its remaining priority list until either its capacity is depleted or after there are no applications left. {% endblocktrans %}
{% if Constants.instructions_example %}{% trans "Example:" %}
{% blocktrans trimmed %} Suppose that there are eight participants and four schools. Schools 1 and 2 have a capacity of two participants each. Schools 3 and 4 have a capacity of three participants each. Further suppose that the participants' preferences and the schools' priorities are as follows: {% endblocktrans %}
| {% trans "Participant" %} 1 | {% trans "Participant" %} 2 | {% trans "Participant" %} 3 | {% trans "Participant" %} 4 | {% trans "Participant" %} 5 | {% trans "Participant" %} 6 | {% trans "Participant" %} 7 | {% trans "Participant" %} 8 | |

{% blocktrans trimmed %} Step 1: P2, P5, P7, and P8 apply for S1. P1 applies for S2. P3 and P4 apply for S3. P6 applies for S4. The requested schools review all applications and rank them according to their priority order: {% endblocktrans %}

Collection
The Department for Education’s statutory guidance publications for schools and local authorities.
Statutory guidance sets out what schools and local authorities must do to comply with the law. You should follow the guidance unless you have a very good reason not to.
There is some guidance that you must follow without exception. In these cases we make this clear in the guidance document itself.
These publications reflect the current legal position (unless otherwise indicated), but may not reflect the current government’s policies.

A software bug is an error, flaw, failure, or fault in a computer program or system that
produces an incorrect or unexpected result, or causes it to behave in unintended ways.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_bug
Bugs make users sad
Bugs make users angry
Why is it called a bug?
We all know the story about the moth right?
accually is Edison
The concept of errors in software dates back to Ada Lovelace notes on the analytical engine in 1843
Thomas Edison used the term 'bug' when referring to faults/difficulties in some of his inventions
It has been just so in all of my inventions. The first step is an intuition,
and comes with a burst, then difficulties arise — this thing gives out and [it is]
then that "Bugs" — as such little faults and difficulties are called —
show themselves and months of intense watching, study and labor are requisite
before commercial success or failure is certainly reached.
Thomas Edison 1878
Why do bugs occur?

Heisenbug
Heisenbug is a computer programming jargon term for a software bug that seems
to disappear or alter its behavior when one attempts to study it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heisenbug
Often caused from debugging actually changing the program's operating environment
A Heisenbug is the kind of bug we don't want
Bohr bug
A repeatable bug; one that manifests reliably under a possibly unknown but well-defined set of conditions.
http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/B/Bohr-bug.html
The opposite of a Heisenbug
A Bohr bug is a bug that is easily repeatable
A Bohr bug is the kind of bug we want
B.A.D. - Broken As Designed
Said of a program that is bogus because of bad design and misfeatures rather than because of bugginess.
http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/B/BAD.html
Tree analogy
If a product, feature, architecture is poorly designed, you're gonna have a bad time
Schroedinbug
A design or implementation bug in a program that doesn't manifest until someone reading source or using the program in an unusual way notices that it never should have worked, at which point the program promptly stops working for everybody until fixed.
A bug, after which its resolution is found, reveals additional self-similar bugs elsewhere in the code, after which they are fixed, likewise appear elsewhere still.
http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?FractalBug
Hindenbug
A bug with catastrophic behaviour
Not always a bug, can be from human error/mistake
Named after the Hindenburg disaster
P.E.B.K.A.C.
Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair
In other words a user error
Other terms exist such as 'ID10T' (I-D-ten-T), pilot error etc.

Shared vocabulary
Do not underestimate this
Allows us to look at bugs at a higher level of abstraction
Allows us to look at common causes of certain kinds of bugs and thus common solutions
Can be domain specific
Prevention > Cure
What can we do to prevent bugs?
Write less code
Programming style
Defensive programming, coding standards, KISS, DRY etc.
Programming techniques
Can an exception be avoided? Is there a better alternative?
Take advantage of language features
Type hints, assertions, contracts etc.
Take advantage of IDE features
Linting, Inspections etc.
Short, concise user stories
Rather than a monolithic specification, which is hard to understand, let alone implement.
Be agile, iterate
Code Analysis
Continuous integration
Automated testing
Mess detection, complexity analysis, copy paste analysis etc.
Monitoring
Average response time, uptime, error logs etc.
Tools like New Relic etc.
Communication
Ensure code comments are concise
Keep on top of documentation
Knowledge sharing
Shared ownership of code
Education
Make things simple
Do everything you can to help the user
Ditch IE (< 8)
Usage of IE7 has dipped below 1%
Get supported browsers locked down early
Managing bugs
Bugs are inevitable and should never be ignored
Bugs should be categorised and prioritised
Note, the severity of a bug is not the same as it's importance for fixing. Consider triage.
Use a good bug tracking tool (e.g. not bugzilla)
Use a good debugging tool
Ensure all bugs are managed in one place
How bugs are reported is key
Have a good bug report template or similar
Example bug report
Not all bugs have to be fixed!
Some bugs may in fact be features!
A bug can be useful and something your users prefer (gmail's undo, lara croft)
Bugs can sometimes be deemed too low priority to spend time fixing
It is not economical to fix bugs of such low severity
There could be new work not yet released which inadvertently fixes the reported bug
PEBKAC
Be careful about rewarding bug fixes
Rewards for number of bugs fixed can promote fixes of simple bugs over important ones
Don't rank developers by bug count
Great way to reduce confidence, lack of volunteers for complex problems etc.
given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus%27s_Law
Benefits of open source
Do you really need to write that library or can you use that popular open source library with lots of eyeballs?
Why dropping your database on a production box isn't a big deal..
(although should be avoided at all costs of course!)
June 4 1996 - The European Space Agency's Ariane 5 Flight 501 was destroyed 40 seconds after takeoff
The US$1 billion prototype rocket self-destructed due to a bug in the on-board guidance software.
A bug in the code controlling the Therac-25 radiation therapy machine was directly responsible for at least five patient deaths in the 1980s when it administered excessive quantities of X-rays.
A Medtronic heart device was found vulnerable to remote attacks in March 2008
Smart ship USS Yorktown was left dead in the water in 1997 for nearly 3 hours after a divide by zero error
Y2K / Y2K38
After 03:14:07 UTC on 19 January 2038 - unix timestamp will 'wrap around' due to integer overflow
If you're storing timestamps in an integer field in your database you may want to consider updating
MySQL's UNIX_TIMESTAMP() function will return 0 after that date

Summary: The claim that a threat to one's moral purity induces the need to cleanse oneself (the "Macbeth effect") currently exhibits replication difficulties (overall meta-analytic effect: r = -.02 [+/-.05]). This appears to be the case whether moral purity threat is manipulated via transcribing text describing an unethical vs. ethical act (Study 2) or by recalling an unethical vs. ethical deed (Studies 3) and whether need to cleanse onself is measured via desirability of cleansing products (Study 2), product choice (Study 3), or reduced volunteerism after cleansing (Study 4). Of course, it is possible the "Macbeth effect" is replicable under different operationalizations and/or experimental designs (e.g., within-subjects).

This example shows how we can use a dynamic language like Groovy to code the view logic instead of using Java of an ItsNat application including hot class reload fast and avoiding the tedious context reload
With Groovy you are going to code less like this snippet:
buttonElem.addEventListener("click", { Event evt -> def text = textInput.getText(); resultsElem.setTextContent(text); } as EventListener, false)
You know Groovy can automatically reload your Groovy classes in certain circumstances, unfortunately this is not the case when a Groovy object is passed to a Java method for instance when registering in ItsNat a listener coded in Groovy.
Groovy is a dynamic language but not a fully pure dynamic, Groovy compiles on the fly the source code generating conventional Java objects (with a Class associated), because Java code receives a conventional Java object created by Groovy there is no built-in way by Groovy to replace the object with a new one with different code when Groovy reloads the class.
RelProxy is a Java and Groovy hot class reloader library, in spite of it is a general purpose tool it was conceived to provide hot class reload to ItsNat. In Groovy case RelProxy delegates to the built-in class reload mechanism of Groovy.
GProxy
is a Java class to provide a simple proxy for Groovy objects. When GProxy
is used a java.lang.reflect.Proxy
is passed instead of the original Groovy object, the original Groovy object is retained under the hood and method calls to the proxy are redirected to the real object
calling the corresponding method using reflection, when the source code of the Groovy class changes
GProxy
automatically reloads the Groovy class and creates a new object to replace the old one, the fields of the original object are got and re-set to the new
object to keep the state (number of fields and types must be the same otherwise reloading is not possible and a redeploy is required).
GProxy
part of RelProxy is not so sophisticated like products like JRebel but it could dramatically reduce the number of redeploys in an ItsNat project.
With a simple boolean enabled
param set to false in initialization time, GProxy
does nothing and your original objects are returned instead of proxies
with 0 performance penalty in production.
GProxy
can easily be applied to an ItsNat-Groovy project to provide a proxy instead of the original Groovy object when registering an
ItsNatServletRequestListener
associated to a page template. When a document (page) is loaded calling processRequest
, GProxy
re-creates
this listener object if the source code of this object or any other dependent class has changed, and re-set all fields to restore the current state.
Field values of the class implementing ItsNatServletRequestListener
are not reloaded to the new possible source but because cascade dependent classes when executing
processRequest
are reloaded, any new object created by processRequest
is fresh with the last source and registering on Java ItsNat classes
happens after reloading so then no GProxy
is needed.
This solution is not perfect because only affects to view-logic (not to classes of global objects provided to ItsNatServletRequestListener
page loaders), that is,
code for ItsNatDocument
processing, anyway this is very much code.
This is an example of using a GProxy
when registering a ItsNatServletRequestListener
associated to a template for document loading:
ItsNatServletRequestListener listener = inexp.groovyex.GProxy.create(new inexp.groovyex.GroovyExampleLoadListener(db), ItsNatServletRequestListener.class); docTemplate.addItsNatServletRequestListener(listener);
Change GroovyExampleDocument
and groovyex.html
, and reload this page, no redeploy is needed. You can change also GroovyExampleLoadListener
if needed
for instance to change parameters provided to GroovyExampleDocument
but do not add/remove/change fields. Changes to FalseDB
(a field of GroovyExampleLoadListener
)
are not automatically reloaded.
Check JProxy for build configuration in Maven and NetBeans Ant.


Qin Wang Lloyds TSB Pacific Limited Hong Kong Branch Two Exchange Square Central, Hong Kong. Attention, Thank you for giving me your time, it is of great importance for you to take care and understand every word which I have written down below; please be patient and read the explanation in my email. I am a staff of Lloyds TSB Group Plc. here in Hong Kong attached in Private Banking Services, I am contacting you concerning a customer and an investment placed under our banks management; as a matter of factit was 3 years ago. I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail private and also to kindly respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this email. I contacted you independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this communication; I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you. In 2001, the subject matter; Ref: FI/TSB/958/042/0500 came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our Private Banking Services Department. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of 15.37 million United States Dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his case; I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the Private Banking Services epartment,especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed, and however I encouraged him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to customers is to start by assessing data on 600 traditional stocks and bond managers and 200 managers of alternative investments. Based on my advice, we spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first months of operation,the accrued profit with interest included, stood at this point at over 16.2 million United States Dollars,this margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on investments.In mid 2002, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Europe. He directed that I liquidate the funds and had it deposited with a firm in Europe. I informed him that our bank would have to make special arrangements to have this done and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank would have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to cater for banking and statutory charges. He complained about the charges but later came around when I explained to him the complexities of the task he was asking of us. Cash movement across borders has become especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate in Europe and had the funds available in mainland Europe, I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited in a security consultancy firm, the firm is a specialist private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable products or undertake transactions that need immediate access to cash. This small and highly private organization is familiar especially to the highly placed and well-connected organizations. In line with instructions, the money was deposited; he told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we had, this transpired aroundbFebruary 25th 2003. In June last year, we got a call from the security firm informing us of the inactivity of that particular portfolio. This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the deposit, and I could not understand why he had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate him I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of our bank. Four days later, information started to trickle in, that he was apparently dead, a person who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in Cannes, South of France; we were soon enough able to gather more information and the cause of death was confirmed. The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim his estate. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an account with us means no one will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the accounts anonymous. This bank also gives the choice to depositors of having their mail sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they nominate next of kin. Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin also usually in most cases leave wills in our care, in this case; he died Intestate. In line with our internal processes for account holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate, this investigation for several months were futile. We have scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem. It is this investigation that resulted in my decision to obtain your contact details and contact you, being as a foreigner or rather non-Asian, as a potential benefactor of the estate even if you are in no way affiliated with this individual (the deceased).My official capacity dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation.  This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit. According to practice, the firm shall by the end of this financial year broadcast a request for statements of claim to our bank, failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back to our bank.This will result in the money entering our bank's accounting system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the Private Banking Services Department. This will not happen if I have my way. What I wish to relate to you might be a smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something; it is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those who occupy certain offices and oversee certain portfolios; you should have begun by now to put together the general direction of what I propose. There is USD$ 15,991,674(Thirteen million, nine hundred and ninety one thousand, six hundred and seventy four united states dollars) deposited, I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as the finance firm is concerned, the transaction with our deceased customer concluded when I sent the funds to the firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just customer services and due process. The finance firm has no single idea of what's the history or nature of the deposit, they are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that comes forward, and this is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track the family of the deceased; they have investigated for months and have found no family but however the investigation has officially come to an end. My proposal; I am prepared to place you in a position whereby an instruction is given to the finance firm to officially release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation/associate, and all etiquette shall be done in accordance with the rule of law, I certainly can guarantee you that. By the common law,the power of bequeathing is coeval with the first rudiments of the law, and this power has been extended to all a man's Personal and Real estate (Personalty & Realty). There is no ruling which prevents an inheritance from being so exhausted by legacies as to render it unworthy of the heir's acceptance; basically all persons of sound mind are competent to bequeath and devise real and personal estate, excepting infants, with all this I would say we have the clear advantage to carry out a smooth and perfect operation whereby the paper work shall be coordinated in such a way that your status as a sole beneficiary is confirmed. Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half and no more; that is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you; afterwards we share the proceeds 50/50. I would have gone ahead to ask the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit, but on the other hand, you as a indifferent foreigner would easily pass as the beneficiary with the rights to claim, I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you in a few days. I will simply inform our bank of the final closing of the file relating to the customer, I will then officially communicate with the finance company and instruct them to release the deposit to you; with these two things: all is done.The alternative would be for us to have the firm direct the funds to another bank with you as account holder, this way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the money from the firm. We can fine-tune this based on our interactions, I am aware of the consequences of this proposal and I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask also, that you do not be vindictive or destructive, if my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you; please not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but people like me who have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector, I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones' way once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by and I hope you understand,because for once I found myself in total control and face to face with my destiny. These chances won't pass me by, I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me please let me know, and hence move on with my life, but do not destroy me; I am a family man and this is an occasion to provide them with new opportunities. There is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking, I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting my bank; I am the only one who knows of this situation,good fortune will bless you and plant you into the center of relevance in my life, let?s share the blessing. If you find yourself interested to work with me,please contact me specifically, through this email account<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a quick conclusion.It is necessary to inform you that under no condition should you contact me via official channels; I will simply deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through our official lines neither do I want you contacting me through my official email account. Contact me only through this email address above; I do not want any direct link between you and me. My official lines are not secure lines as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line with our Total Quality Management policy, please observe this instruction religiously. Please, again, note I am a family man; I happily married with kids, I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences might be, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold,this is the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients; do not betray my confidence. If we can be of one accord I shall have the pleasure of meeting you, after this task has been completed we can plan a meeting. I await your response. Yours Sincerely, Qin Wang
