This is the home page of a new effort to create a meta-model for Java. The goal is to include the meta-model in Java SE, to replace java.beans.
What do we mean by “meta-model”?
When we use the term meta-model, we mean providing a mechanism to access information about objects in Java. The most common meta-model is reflection via Class, Method and Field.
The second common meta-model is the JavaBeans specification. This defines the concept of a bean with a set of properties.
A bean with properties is a Java class that obeys certain rules. These include:
- a public no-argument constructor
- implementing Serializable
- public getter and setter pairs that provide access to each property on the object
The meta-model for beans is defined by the java.beans package in the JDK. The package provides a way to introspect an object to determine what properties the bean has.
The meta-model for a bean is BeanDescriptor. Each property is exposed using PropertyDescriptor. Additional information is also available on events, parameters and methods.
The bean meta-model is similar to reflection but sits at a higher level of abstraction. Instead of the low-level fields and methods with their scopes (private, protected, public), the bean meta-model exposes only public features. For example, getter and setters are not treated as just methods but are combined into the higher level property concept.
Why do we need a new meta-model?
The JavaBeans specification was written in 1997 and is hopelessly out of date, despite parts of it being widely used. However, being out of date is not the main driver of the project. Instead the main driver is modularity in JDK 9.
In JDK 9 the java.beans package will be located within the “desktop” stack module. As such, if your application depends on java.beans, you will pull in all the “desktop” GUI code. For a server-side application, this is a huge unnecessary dependency. By providing a new meta-model to replace java.beans, it can be designed to sit within a JDK module outside the “desktop”.
In addition, since this is a new meta-model, the restrictions of JavaBeans can be re-evaluated. Effectively, this is an opportunity to create version 2.0 of the JavaBeans specification.
Most notably, the new meta-model needs to support the wide range of objects we write today:
- handle both mutable and immutable objects
- handle potential future language changes, such as value types
- handle dynamic beans, where the properties are held in a Map rather than bytecode fields
- be independent of reflection
- provide access to annotations
Note that the current JavaBeans meta-model is typically only used by framework writers. However, it is intended to make the new meta-model more developer friendly, so it can be used more widely.

Songdew is an independent music startup that offers a platform to Indian independent musicians to release and upload their music, making it available to listeners through streaming. In addition to enabling the creation and sharing of independent music, Songdew works with multiple corporations that require original music, creating additional opportunities for musicians through the platform.
When I joined Songdew, they did not have a UX team and process in place. The artists and listener experiences were fragmented. The primary question that I had to answer was how to unify these two experiences? This was particularly challenging because Songdew had different types of content such as music, videos, opportunities, and Songdew TV.
I led the UX Design at Songdew, working in collaboration with the product, marketing, and social media team, supporting them in achieving their goal while advocating for UX in the company. As a solo designer in the team, I was also responsible for the UI design and cross-platform consistency.
From a preliminary usability testing we identified the following issues.
Before the redesign: Songdew's landing page
We used the following strategies to simplify the navigation.
Redesign of landing page included segregating Artist and Listener Features using Headings, unifying listener and artist experience before signup, and reducing the banner height to push the content up,
We used card sorting with different teams at Songdew to segregate content relevant to artists and listeners. In this process, we identified content that was more important. These included content that the music release team wanted to present to the listeners as features songs, videos, and artist.
We conceptualized a category spotlight, we differentiated it from the rest of the content on the home page using three strategies
Initial user testing showed that during a quick scroll down, the users identified Spotlight as the most important content in the homepage.
Using Card sorting to determine features presented before and after signup and conceptualizing Spotlight, a collection of recent and most important content.
In addition to restructuring the content of the website, we identified several usability issues. The song and video cards on the Songdew had similar width before the redesign. Through initial user testing, we found that at a glance, it was hard to tell that the song and video cards were two different content. The team was aware of this problem and they used UI markers to differentiate this. User testing showed that it wasn’t working.
Before the redesign: The song and video cards
We worked through several iterations of the size of song and video cards and tested them with users. In the final design, we kept the height of the song and video card the same. This meant that the number of cards displayed for songs and videos was different. Our testing showed that this made the perceived difference between the two different cards evident to the user. The title of songs and videos were not consistent, we redesigned all the cards to ensure UI consistencies.
We went through several iterations of song and video cards, the design ntention was to make a clear visual distinction between the two types of cards.
The product team at Songdew was trying to push more content by autoscrolling the cards and providing horizontal sliders. Through initial user testing, we found out that the automatic scrolling created an unpleasant experience and the users hardly paid attention to the horizontal sliders. We used these finding to advocate for removing these features and reduce the content on the homepage.

Extracting Shared Libraries¶
The amount of time and effort it will take to extract shared libraries out of your repository and into NuGet Package repositories depends on just how big and complex your particular ball of mud is. If you only have a few projects referenced by multiple solutions, and they are all nicely modularized as a “framework” of sorts, this effort can be completed in under an hour. If you have several hundred projects cross-referenced by several hundred solutions, this process can take several months of effort. Either way, the process itself can be broken down as:
Identify the shared project(s) to extract using the Repographer Reports
Determine if you wish to extract just the single project into its own repository, or cluster a few related projects that version together.
- For example, perhaps you have base Data Access project with a few child projects holding specific database implementations. Any changes to the base Data Access classes will want to immediately be reflected in the derived children, so it may make sense to keep all of these projects together. You can still deploy multiple NuGet Packages out of a single repository (one per each database implementation), as that is more a function of your build and package process than the actual place the projects live.
Move all of the projects you wish to extract into its own repository under one folder of the current repository. Do not worry about breaking reference paths in doing so, as you will use Repographer to fix those for you.
Extract that folder out into its own repository. Different SCM systems (i.e. Mercurial, Git, SVN, TFS) have different ways to achieve this. For example, in Git you would use the
git subtree
command.Create and publish the NuGet Packages from the new repository, either manually or via an automated build and deploy process. See the NuGet documentation for instructions on creating packages.
Use Repographer to switch existing project references to NuGet references in the ball of mud repository, and remove those projects as members of the various .sln files (see the next section).
Remove the old extracted project code from the ball of mud repository.

Our Story
For this homework we decided to reuse the dataset we used for homework 2. We
both found this dataset very interesting and gained a lot of insight from the
exploratory analysis we performed in Tableau. The Olympics are divided by
countries and we wanted to learn more about how many medals each country produces each year.
We decided to visually encode our data into stacked charts because we thought
this effectively displayed the difference between the total number of medals earned each year
and how many were earned by each country. Different colors were used to encode the nominal
data of the countries because they are each distinct, different, and can’t be ordered. Then once
the user clicks on a particular country, more information regarding how many medals they have earned is
shown through an area chart.
We faced a few difficulties during this assignment. First we realized that we need to
change how our Excel dataset was organized. We performed some exploratory analysis on
this dataset in Excel to determine the best way to reorganize the dataset. Below we added pictures of the dataset we
started with and the one we obtained after manipulating the data. The biggest challenege we faced was
figuring out different interactive ways to display clear data. We found ourselves not being able to find sources to aid
us in this assignments.

MAC A film review by Mark R. Leeper Copyright 1993 Mark R. Leeper
Capsule review: John Turturro plays a character based on his own father in a film he directs and also co-wrote. Turturro proves that the lives of a family of carpenters is no less interesting than the lives of a family of criminals. Surprisingly entertaining. Rating: low +2 (-4 to +4).
The vast majority of employed people in this country have rarely, if ever, seen someone in the same occupation portrayed in the movies. There are maybe fifty or so professions that show up in films and fewer that have a major part in the plot of the film. Presumably from the filmmakers' viewpoint, other professions just are not dramatic. But, in fact, many people's stories are dramatic and they do take risks, have dreams, and in general have stories worth telling. John Turturro's father, Nicholas Turturro, built houses. In the family his adventures in that profession made interesting conversation, but could the story be transferred to film in a way that would make anyone want to come to see the film? John Turturro apparently thought so, and proves his point with MAC.
John Turturro plays Niccolo "Mac" Vitelli, a carpenter and brother to two carpenters and the son of a third. Mac's father is a genuine craftsman, but the three brothers work for a Polish builder who takes no pride in work and who looks for shortcuts to cheat the customer. Mac gets fed up and, together with his brothers Vito (played by Michael Badalucco) and Bruno (played by Carl Capotorto), forms a partnership to compete with his old boss. Mac has an eye for detail and assembles a team of quality builders, but financial problems follow and haunt him. Even worse, Mac's explosive temper more than once nearly ruins the family's dreams. The film also focuses on the private lives of the brothers. Mac finds a wife (played by Katherine Borowitz), but Vito and Bruno both like an attractive beatnik (played by Ellen Barkin).
While the screenplay by Turturro and Branden Cole is episodic, it is nevertheless surprisingly intriguing. In fact, for interest value MAC holds it own against films about men building their dreams like BUGSY or TUCKER, even though the main character has nowhere near the notoriety that Bugsy Siegel or even Preston Tucker had. The film has a nice portrait of an Italian-American family in the 1940 and 1950s. Turturro plays his role with an intensity bordering on over-acting at times. Still, this is an intelligent treatment of a story unlikely to be made into a film. I give this one a low +2 on the -4 to +4 scale.

Self Confidence
What is the relationship between mindfulness and self-awareness
Mindfulness over time leads to self-awareness.
Mindfulness is the act or attitude of paying attention in a certain way.
Self-awareness is a combination of experience, self-knowledge and the ability to
recognise things inside yourself and percieve them in detail. Your tendencies, your current state, likes, strengths, relationships etc.
Body Scan
This is another practice that I have a little bit of experience with and haven't done much recently.
I've been really enjoying a return to meditation alongside reading this book so I'm curious and looking forward to
how the body scan goes.
As I go through my body there are some areas that are tense or tight or out of balance, usually my lower back,
IT band and knees. When I put my attention in these areas and start to feel them directly I get a huge amount of frustration and sometimes
disgust at my body state. It's kind of alarming how strong it is. The physical sensations themselves are quite mild but I start to tense up
or cringe at it.
This happened when I tried the body scan and got to my back, I decided I'd just keep my focus there and see the two feelings as separate, on the one hand the physical
sensation in my back, and on the other the built up frustration and listen to them or watch them for a while. After a while the intensity started
to dissapate a little bit and I could relax and feel inside my back more than I normally can.
This was a really helpful thing to realise, I think it is a common pattern I have. Some area in my life is neglected, out
of balance or not the way I'd like it. If my first attempts to deal with it don't work or I feel like the situation is beyond my ability
I can quickly get a high level of frustration. That intensity is something in itself that I tend to avoid or feel unequipped to handle.
So I never get to actually enter the core area and attend to it. I'm sure this can change.
Afterwards I felt extremely relaxed. Going to do this again.
My emotions are not me section
What I took from this was that while emotions influence a person and affect decision making and actions, they way they percieve things etc,
the person is never totally controlled or defined by the emotion, they always have a variety of responses to choose from. It's a little bit like outer landscape - whatever position a
person finds themselves in, that position in a real sense limits and defines the possible actions they can take. If you are on a boat in a storm or if you are in the middle of grief you have
different options and experiences available than in your own home or in a calm emotional state. And at the same time a person is totally free to respond to their internal and external situatuion in the way they choose.
The core remains stable throughout it.
Another thing I took was that the ability to experience emotions fully and expand your sense of what is possible
while carrying that emotional state are things that can both grow with practice. Pretty liberating to think about, that it's possible to
feel life more and more deeply and at the same time be more and more free in how you choose to live, more balanced throughout intense situations.
I can't quite get on board with emotions being purely body-based experiences.. I definitely experience emotions in my mind and perception
too. Say in times of anger, I can feel it in my body and also in the way I start seeing things. My mind is cold and direct, things that
usually seem important now seem irrelevant, all worries go away. I would say those aspects exist independent of my body.
I would take a different angle and say body sensation is maybe the easiest and most sensitive way to recognise emotional current that might otherwise
go on unconsciously or in hazy detail, rather than saying that emotions are experienced only or predominantly in the body.
Enjoyment
I'm getting a lot out of reading this book, practising, and reflecting each week. I've been a bit stuck in thinking that since I already had read of these
concepts and understood them in my mind that they should be easy to me in practice. But actually I had put myself in a rut thinking this way, I still need and gain a lot from support and taking instructions.
Good and humbling to come down from that.
I think the next missing piece for getting back into 'it' is a greater connection to others experiences and search for more meaning or self-awareness. I look forward to
some of that during the bootcamp.

There are lots of ways to get energy. Most places burn fossil fuels. These fuels will not last. They can make the air dirty, too, so we need to look for new ways to get energy. Using the sun is a clean way to get energy. The name for this is solar power. People can use panels on top of their homes to catch the sun's rays. The sun's energy can be changed to electrical power and can also be used for heat. We can get clean energy from the wind, too. A lot of space is needed for wind power. A group of windmills needs to be set up to catch the wind. Water is also a way of getting clean energy. Running water can spin huge wheels. This energy can be changed to many other kinds of energy for use by people.

lexicographical_compare
|
|
| Category: algorithms |
Component type: function |
Prototype
Lexicographical_compare is an overloaded name; there are actually
two lexicographical_compare functions.
template <class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2>
bool lexicographical_compare(InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1,
InputIterator2 first2, InputIterator2 last2);
template <class InputIterator1, class InputIterator2, class BinaryPredicate>
bool lexicographical_compare(InputIterator1 first1, InputIterator1 last1,
InputIterator2 first2, InputIterator2 last2,
BinaryPredicate comp);
Description
Lexicographical_compare returns true if the range of elements
[first1, last1) is lexicographically less than the range of
elements [first2, last2), and false otherwise. Lexicographical
comparison means "dictionary" (element-by-element) ordering. That is,
[first1, last1) is less than [first2, last2) if *first1 is
less than *first2, and greater if *first1 is greater than *first2.
If the two first elements are equivalent then lexicographical_compare
compares the two second elements, and so on. As with ordinary
dictionary order, the first range is considered to be less than
the second if every element in the first range is equal to the
corresponding element in the second but the second contains more elements.
The two versions of lexicographical_compare differ in how they define whether one
element is less than another. The first version compares
objects using operator<, and the second compares objects using
a function object comp.
Definition
Declared in algo.h. The implementation is in algobase.h.
Requirements on types
For the first version:
-
InputIterator1 is a model of Input Iterator.
-
InputIterator2 is a model of Input Iterator.
-
InputIterator1's value type is a model of LessThan Comparable.
-
InputIterator2's value type is a model of LessThan Comparable.
-
If v1 is an object of InputIterator1's value type and v2
is an object of InputIterator2's value type, then both v1 < v2
and v2 < v1 are defined.
For the second version:
-
InputIterator1 is a model of Input Iterator.
-
InputIterator2 is a model of Input Iterator.
-
BinaryPredicate is a model of Binary Predicate.
-
InputIterator1's value type is convertible to BinaryPredicate's
first argument type and second argument type.
-
InputIterator2's value type is convertible to BinaryPredicate's
first argument type and second argument type.
Preconditions
-
[first1, last1) is a valid range.
-
[first2, last2) is a valid range.
Complexity
Linear. At most 2 * min(last1 - first1, last2 - first2) comparisons.
Example
int main()
{
int A1[] = {3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 3};
int A2[] = {3, 1, 4, 2, 8, 5, 7};
int A3[] = {1, 2, 3, 4};
int A4[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
const int N1 = sizeof(A1) / sizeof(int);
const int N2 = sizeof(A2) / sizeof(int);
const int N3 = sizeof(A3) / sizeof(int);
const int N4 = sizeof(A4) / sizeof(int);
bool C12 = lexicographical_compare(A1, A1 + N1, A2, A2 + N2);
bool C34 = lexicographical_compare(A3, A3 + N3, A4, A4 + N4);
cout << "A1[] < A2[]: " << (C12 ? "true" : "false") << endl;
cout << "A3[] < A4[]: " << (C34 ? "true" : "false") << endl;
}

On a recent project that I worked with Elaine on, she demonstrated patience, sound judgment, and a high level of professionalism.

Her integrity, commitment to excellence and leadership within the business community has provided me with opportunities to work and collaborate with extraordinary individuals.

Top Qualities: Great Results, Expert, High Integrity
“In working with Elaine in the past, her efficient and timely follow up and communication with me, has consistently delivered quality candidates for our consideration at each level of management we have requested. Her expertise and understanding of our business, the profile of people who succeed in it and the relationships she has built with these people has made working with Elaine both productive and a pleasure.”
Will Penny, VP., Sales and Operations, Reitmans
“I have known Elaine Hay for approximately six years now and used Campbell Edgar Inc. for recruitment purposes.
I highly recommend the services of Campbell Edgar and in particular the President, Elaine Hay. It can be said of most woman that they have an intuitive ability; however, Elaine elevates this ability into a fine art. She has the skill of a surgeon in dissecting the vibe and pulse of an organisation, understanding the operation, requirements and needs thereof and then transferring this culture into a needs assessment in the recruitment process.
Elaine’s clearly superior intuition is what distinguishes her as a true professional in her field, the ability to source the right person for the position on all levels of staffing. Business is like any other human relationship, the correct match of personalities is crucial to ensure success. If you are looking at furthering your organisation, look no further than Elaine Hay for all your staffing requirements.
I singled out Intuition for a purpose, this is what I believe separates Elaine from the rest, everyone worth doing business with strives for professionalism, ethical integrity, excellent service, value for money and the list is almost endless, but if you want this and more, then look for someone that will show the level of intuition required to find the match your organisation so rightly deserves, someone concerned with empowering your organisation to fulfill their mission, with the very best of career matched people.”

“You understood our corporate needs and culture and provided candidates that
were appropriate not only in skill but in personality for our company. You also
managed the entire process from start to finish and eliminated our administrative
input. We were also very pleased to have a more personal history of the
candidates beyond the traditional resume which highlighted their personalities
rather than simply focusing on their skills and experience. We are firm believers
that finding the right fit for both the company and employees is what will make
our company stronger. You have delivered on that promise.”

“I have a small chain of 11 hair salons in BC interior. As an absentee owner, I rely upon someone else to run the business on a day to day basis. In 2007 it became apparent that a change in management was overdue but, given that I live in Atlanta – nearly 3000 miles from my stores – I didn’t know how to find the kind of person I knew I needed. Experience in hair was not a pre-requisite. I was more interested in someone with proven retail management skills across multiple locations.
I can’t remember how I came across Campbell Edgar, but I’m certainly glad that I did. Not only did they provide a list of well qualified candidates and set up convenient interviews, but Elaine “helped” me towards my eventual choice.
Ross has worked out better than I dared hope. He’s brought structure and consistency to the company, while improving morale at every level. I highly commend your service and hope I never need to use you to find his replacement!”
John Naismith
Counterpoint-retail.com
“Elaine possesses a high degree of professionalism and was quickly able to find the perfect candidate that met the needs of our company. Since our head office is located out of province it was imperative to find a company that we could trust to be knowledgeable, reliable and efficient.

She has the skill of a surgeon in dissecting the vibe and pulse of an organisation, understanding the operation, requirements and needs thereof and then transferring this culture into a needs assessment in the recruitment process.
Elaine’s clearly superior intuition is what distinguishes her as a true professional in her field, the ability to source the right person for the position on all levels of staffing. Business is like any other human relationship, the correct match of personalities is crucial to ensure success. If you are looking at furthering your organisation, look no further than Elaine Hay for all your staffing requirements.
I singled out Intuition for a purpose, this is what I believe separates Elaine from the rest, everyone worth doing business with strives for professionalism, ethical integrity, excellent service, value for money and the list is almost endless, but if you want this and more, then look for someone that will show the level of intuition required to find the match your organisation so rightly deserves, someone concerned with empowering your organisation to fulfill their mission, with the very best of career matched people.”

“We had a specific job which required the intimate knowledge of adobe in design. We called Elaine and she found us someone who was exceedingly good.

"Elaine initially helped me fill a knowledge worker position in my company. She made an excellent choice and delivered really good value.
More recently, Elaine helped us hire a new President for a very visible organization. She succeeded in sourcing, recommending and presenting astonishingly good candidates, helped us through a complex hiring process, and did it all within very tight deadlines. When you need Executive Search, you need Elaine."

As Governor for the Better Business Bureau, she continues to give back to the community. Recently, Elaine worked with me in redefining my career objectives and provided me with many 'aha' moments for which I am most appreciative.

“I have worked with Elaine on 2 separate instances providing recruitment services. The first was to provide a temporary maternity leave replacement at my business.
Most recently she provided Executive Services to seek the replacement of a retiring President for a high profile British Columbia Not-For-Profit Organization. In both cases, I found her to be very professional and aware of the specific (and differing) needs of our business and the Society. She is diligent and thorough in her approach and excels in identifying quality candidates making the selection process much easier. I highly recommend her Administrative and Executive searches.”

were appropriate not only in skill but in personality for our company. You also
managed the entire process from start to finish and eliminated our administrative
input. We were also very pleased to have a more personal history of the

Because of her experience in retail and high level management, she is able to quickly determine needs and supply strong solutions to company problems. She is warm, professional, highly capable and committed to success; an awesome business partner. I would heartily recommend her and her services in any capacity.”
Colleen Loader Buyer , Books
“I have a small chain of 11 hair salons in BC interior. As an absentee owner, I rely upon someone else to run the business on a day to day basis. In 2007 it became apparent that a change in management was overdue but, given that I live in Atlanta – nearly 3000 miles from my stores – I didn’t know how to find the kind of person I knew I needed. Experience in hair was not a pre-requisite. I was more interested in someone with proven retail management skills across multiple locations.
I can’t remember how I came across Campbell Edgar, but I’m certainly glad that I did. Not only did they provide a list of well qualified candidates and set up convenient interviews, but Elaine “helped” me towards my eventual choice.
Ross has worked out better than I dared hope. He’s brought structure and consistency to the company, while improving morale at every level. I highly commend your service and hope I never need to use you to find his replacement!”
John Naismith

“Elaine possesses a high degree of professionalism and was quickly able to find the perfect candidate that met the needs of our company. Since our head office is located out of province it was imperative to find a company that we could trust to be knowledgeable, reliable and efficient. Campbell, Edgar Inc exceeded expectations and were extremely please with the results."

Information about Discord Student Hubs
for school staff and administration
A community-made resource to Discord Student Hubs for primary and secondary school staff. If you were sent here by a student, they are aiming to inform you on the nature of Discord Student Hubs.
Disclaimer
This website is not operated by Discord. It is a community-made resource to help school officials understand Discord Student Hubs. For questions about this website, please email discord-hubs (at) adrian (dot) id (dot) au.

- About this website
What is Discord?
- Discord is a popular communication platform that allows communities of different sizes—from small groups of friends to large global communities—to communicate over voice, text or video.
- Individual communities are called Servers and can be kept invite-only or made publicly discoverable on the internet, then they're divided into text or voice rooms called Channels
- Discord has many features that social networks have (like Friends and Direct Messaging), but is more of a chat application as opposed to a website with a feed (like Twitter or Facebook)
- Discord is psuedonymous and users aren't required to use their real name
- Each server allows administrator and moderator privileges to be assigned by the owner or creator of that Server - these permissions include muting, kicking and banning from specific servers, but do not apply outside of that specific server
- Users must be aged 13 or older to use Discord
- Discord also has their own Terms of Service, Community Guidelines and Student Hub Guidelines which are enforced by the Discord Trust and Safety team
- More information on what Discord is can be found at their Parents & Educators webpage
How do students use Discord?
Discord is especially popular amongst school students who want to find ways to interact with their classmates outside of school, especially during the coronavirus pandemic.
- Social communication
- Online gaming
- Study and learning
What are Discord Student Hubs?
Student Hubs are automatically-generated groupings of students on Discord from the same school, based on the school email address they provide to Discord.
- They allow students to find each other and add school-related Servers to a central location
- Discord Student Servers allow the option of replacing pseudonyms with real names to help students find each other
- This all takes place on a student's personal Discord account and allow them to connect their self-run Servers
- Students and schools have no control over Student Hubs – they are automatically-generated and managed solely by Discord
How are students invited to Discord Student Hubs?
- Discord provides a pop-up window for students to input and verify their school email address (e.g<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- School email addresses are only used to verify which student hub someone may access – it won't be visible to other Discord users nor shared with institutions
- Student Hubs are already live for most schools in Australia and are currently rolling out to colleges in the USA and Canada. It is now possible for students in many countries across the world to add their school to the hubs waitlist.
- Invite links to each institution's Student Hub are sent to school emails and can only be used by accounts which have verified their corresponding institutional email address
- Students can opt-out by leaving the Student Hub
How do schools moderate Discord?
You should not be worried about students using Discord - it is a great way for students to communicate and connect, especially during the coronavirus pandemic. Like most social media networks (e.g Twitter, Facebook) and personal chat applications (e.g WhatsApp, Messenger) there is no easy way for institutions to manage or moderate the actions of their students.- There is no easy way for schools to moderate Student Hubs or any aspect of Discord - it is a personal communication platform
- Student Hubs are not managed or affiliated with schools
- Most school internet filtering systems already block Discord and other communication platforms, including Palo Alto Networks - but this will not prevent students from accessing Discord in personal home network environments
- Our recommendation: talk to your students about your school's support and encouragement of safe online communication, provide resources against cyber-bullying and online abuse, and make clear your institution's policies towards online abuse between students at your school
- Although individual servers have their own moderation permissions, you can report abuse on the Discord platform to their Trust and Safety team
Information for Australian schools
- Australian schools are some of the first to gain access to the new Discord Student Hubs feature
- Public state education systems, including in New South Wales and Victoria, all use the same email address (e.g<EMAIL_ADDRESS>- As a consequence, students will have received many invites to schools across their state's public education system - this was poor oversight on Discord's behalf and students do not have any control over this

Accelerometer
The accelerometer is an input device that measures the force of acceleration in three axes (x, y, and z). This is commonly referred to as g-force and is expressed as a multiple of the force of gravity. For example, an airplane pilot experiences of force of 2 g in a 60 degree banked turn. This means he is being pushed into his seat with a force that is double his weight. Fighter pilots may experience up to 9 g. The BrainPad returns an accelerometer value that is equal to g-force multiplied by 100.
If the BrainPad is laying flat on a table with the display away from you on the right side, the x-axis runs horizontally left and right, the y-axis goes horizontally toward you and away from you, and the z-axis extends vertically straight up and down. If the BrainPad is stationary in this position, the x and y axes would read 0, but the z-axis would read -100. This is because the force of gravity is pushing down on the accelerometer with force equal to 1 g (the force of the Earth's gravity). If you turn the BrainPad upside down, the z-axis would read 100. The only time all axes read zero is when the BrainPad is free falling.
Accelerometer Methods
BrainPad.Accelerometer.EnableFullRange = {true|false}
- If set to false, the accelerometer values range from -100 to 100 (-1 g to 1 g). If set to true, the accelerometer values range from -200 to 200 (-2 g to 2 g).BrainPad.Accelerometer.ReadX()
- returns an integer value in the range of -100 to 100 (or -200 to 200 if BrainPad.Accelerometer.EnableFullRange = true) based on the BrainPad's x-axis acceleration.BrainPad.Accelerometer.ReadY()
- returns an integer value in the range of -100 to 100 (or -200 to 200 if BrainPad.Accelerometer.EnableFullRange = true) based on the BrainPad's y-axis acceleration.BrainPad.Accelerometer.ReadZ()
- returns an integer value in the range of -100 to 100 (or -200 to 200 if BrainPad.Accelerometer.EnableFullRange = true) based on the BrainPad's z-axis acceleration.
Accelerometer Sample Code
The following sample program uses the accelerometer to change the color of the LightBulb depending on how the BrainPad is tilted.
To try it, start a new C# project, manage the NuGet packages, and add the BrainPad helper code. Then copy this code and paste it into the Program.cs
window replacing just the main
method in the original program.
static void Main()
{
double red, green, blue;
while (true)
{
red = Math.Abs(BrainPad.Accelerometer.ReadX());
green = Math.Abs(BrainPad.Accelerometer.ReadY());
blue = Math.Abs(BrainPad.Accelerometer.ReadZ());
BrainPad.LightBulb.TurnColor(red, green, blue);
BrainPad.Wait.Milliseconds(20);
}
}
In this example the Math.Abs()function returns the absolute value of the number. If the accelerometer returns a negative number it is changed to a positive number of equal magnitude. That way the Light Bulb always gets arguments in the range of 0-100.

Prosumers in B2B
Finding good products is hard. I remember trying to pick a CRM system at Xpenser. I spent a ton of time searching the web, reading articles/blogs, on the phone with sales people, playing with free trials, etc. It was not easy to figure out which product was best for us – it all (various marketing & sales people) sounded the same.
This problem of choosing the right product is prevalent across all businesses. There still isn’t a good way to efficiently map a company’s problem to a solution. The enterprise is littered with stories of companies spending tens of millions internally or with consultants / research firms to evaluate / buy / implement systems. And then never using them. SMB’s typically navigate a crowded landscape alone leading to wasted time and often misguided purchases.
The most effective way to convert is still word of mouth / recommendations. This way the ‘seller’ is knowledgeable on the problem, the product, solution, etc and is trusted. So in this case the buyer & seller are truly aligned around solving a particular problem.
But finding a trusted recommendation is not always easy. In the absence of this, the buyer defaults back to a company’s sales & marketing efforts - which are not the best guides.
So if we can further incentivize power users to recommend products and allow them to easily scale, it’s a win-win-win. Power users pocket extra money for recommending products they know & love. Buyers spend less time evaluating solutions and end up with products that actually solve their problems. And companies can more effectively distribute their products.
The internet gives us this ability. The web allows individuals to build large audiences by creating valuable content (see stars on Instagram, Twitter, Youtube, Snapchat, etc). So companies need to leverage this same model and build the tools & incentives for their power users to take recommending their products even further.
If we extrapolate, we can imagine how this can potentially revolutionize how sales as a whole is done today. The old model of hiring a bunch of sales people to knock down doors is inefficient and feels very archaic. By leveraging your community of users, good products will have a built in, knowledgeable and effective sales force. And if we extrapolate even further, we can imagine how companies could use the real time nature of the web to leverage their best users in other departments – services, support, and more.
As a side note, large companies often hire expensive consultants to be their trusted 3rd party. They’ll leverage expensive research firms (also supposedly trusted 3rd parties) to evaluate and make decisions. While this works in some cases, it clearly doensn’t work all the time – otherwise there would be no horror stories in the enterprise. In the model above, we may see dedicated individuals create new age consulting / research firms to disrupt the large consulting firms of today.
In my 2015 predictions post, I wrote that:
“I also think that the SMB space will begin to use prosumers very effectively, creating a way to incentivize their best users to become their sales force.”
So I was excited to see Growsumo come out of the latest YC batch. Really looking forward to see what they do.
