To learn more about sharding and Ethereum 2.0 (Serenity), see the sharding FAQ and the research compendium.
This repository hosts the current Eth2 specifications. Discussions about design rationale and proposed changes can be brought up and discussed as issues. Solidified, agreed-upon changes to the spec can be made through pull requests.
Core specifications for Eth2 clients be found in specs. These are divided into phases. Each subsequent phase depends upon the prior. The current phases specified are:
The sharding spec is still actively in R&D; see the most recent available pull request here and some technical details here.
The merge is still actively in R&D; see an ethresear.ch post describing the proposed basic mechanism here and the section of ethereum.org describing the merge at a high level here.
Additional specifications and standards outside of requisite client functionality can be found in the following repos:

JavaScript modules for visualizing GPX data.
This is a simple demo of gpxvis.js features. Select a sample GPX file and a track below. The track is displayed on the map (together with all the waypoints in the GPX file) and an elevation profile chart is created. A range control widget (just below the elevation profile chart) allows you to select the range of the track to display on the map and in the elevation profile chart.

Rear-Facing Car Seats
Rear-Facing Car Seats
There are three types of rear-facing car seats:
- Infant Car Seat: are rear-facing only, easy to carry around and typically is installed on a car seat base that remains securely installed in the vehicle while the car seat is easily removed from the base, transported around and then returned to the bases when it's time to travel.
- Convertible Car Seat: can be installed in a rear-facing or foward-facing position and encourages keeping a child in the rear-facing position a little longer since it tends to accomodate multiple stages.
- All-in-one Seat: accomondates rear-facing, foward-facing and booster-style stages. Booster-style seats are described on the Booster Seat page.
All car seats manual should be checked for the individual manufacturer's guidlines.


Password protect video
Introduction
Well there are videos or audio files you really like to keep private.
The easiest way to protect your video files with a password is to use the GreenForce-Player.
GreenForce-Player is a portable freeware alternative media player with multiple functions. It can play video files, audio files like mp3 and it is also possible to protect media files. It has a cache system that is used to reduce usage of your hard disc which can extend the battery life of laptops. All together, a must have alternative media player for windows.
In the GreenForce-Player you can encrypt the media files individually, but if you need to encrypt more files you can use the Crypt-tool which is included in the SDK.
The Crypt-tool also allows adding all multimedia files into one executable. So you can convert your audio and video files to standalone EXE files. This has the big advantage that the GreenForce-Player Software is not needed for playback then.
Introduction
To encrypt you must start the tool "GFPCrypt-GUI.exe" from the GreenForce-Player SDK.
To add files you can use "Add file" for one file or you can use the button "Add folder" to add a complete folder. After this the items will be added to the list below.
If you added a file then you can double click on the item to change the tags of the file (Interpret/Album/Title/Cover).
At the bottom of the main window you can set the password (encryption key), the output folder.
If you want to create only one executable with all multimedia files, then you can use the option "Include all files in one player executable". In this case it is also possible to set your own icon for the executable.
To create the encrypted files you have to click on the "Encrypt" button.
If you used the option to create an executable you get a file like this:
Test the created file
Now you can start this new standalone executable with a double click.
You get directed in the Cover flow; there you can select the Video/Audio you want to see.
To play the file you only have to enter the right password.


Type Event Dispatch chain ▸ Display Object ▸ Runtime Revision Current Public Release (2013.2076) Keywords collision, physics Sample code /CoronaSDK/SampleCode/ See also physics.* preCollision postCollision physics.setAverageCollisionPositions() physics.setReportCollisionsInContentCoordinates()
Physics engine collision events are exposed through the standard Corona event-listener model, with three new event types: "collision", "preCollision", and "postCollision".
When the event is detected with a table listener within an object, certain properties are replaced:
object1
—▸ target
object2
—▸ other
element1
—▸ selfElement
element2
—▸ otherElement
The x and y position can be influenced by physics.getAverageCollisionPositions() and physics.setReportCollisionsInContentCoordinates().
During the "ended" phase (See the Collision Detection Guide), the X and Y positions are always zero. This is a Box2D limitation.
Also, when a collision involves a circle, and if the collision result is returned in local-space (see physics.setReportCollisionsInContentCoordinates(), then the local-space position of the collision is always 0,0. This is a Box2D limitation.
The objects involved in the collision should not be removed or any of it's properties altered during a collision event. You should use timer.performWithDelay() if they want to modify object position values or other properties within the collision events.
Removing the object or modifying the properties in the collision event could cause the simulator to crash.
Check out our Collision Detection Guide for programming concepts and tips.


 I guess Google has foreseen this ever since they introduced "swipe-to-open" overflow menu in KitKat. Few days ago, I came across an interesting concept which applies the gesture philosophy on the spinner widget. The concept shows that the user can change the value of the widget just by dragging the widget itself up or down. Oleg, the author, implemented subtle elastic feedback animation when the user releases the widget after dragging.
I feel in love with this concept, so I had to recreate it into a real widget for Android.
SwipeSpinnerWidget
It is a fact that Android development arena is saturated with -deprecated- widgets which incorporate custom implementation of existing functions. I personally think over-complicating simple widgets leads to premature deprecation, and increases incompatibility issues; not to mention lack of proper documentation. Therefore, I decided to code the concept on top of RecyclerView. It may seem like an over kill, but I figured that if I used RecyclerView, people would be able to use it on top of their existing adapters without having to change anything, plus I don’t have to worry about compatibility with older Android versions. I’m also fan of one-class libraries, since they can be easily downloaded and integrated into projects, specially in the case of simple widgets.
Fast-forward couple of days later, I was able to recreate Oleg’s concept by using RecyclerView.OnItemTouchListener
implementation. Overall, I think it turned out nicely. Simple, light, sustainable, and one-classer.
You can check out the library here

Overview User interface Main window ↑ | ↓
The message board is one central place where MMM informs you about the state of the program, about progress of computations, about query results, such as distances, angles, and dihedral angles, and about warnings and errors. The last 22 lines of message text are displayed. If you select objects, the addresses of the last 22 selected objects are shown.
A permanent record of all messages during a session can be written to a log file.
When the log file checkbox is activated, MMM creates a file stamped with the current date and time and the extension .log
in its temporary directory. From now on, until deactivation of the checkbox or leaving MMM, all output to the message board is also written to the log file.
Note that MMM checks every 30 days whether there are old files (older than 30 days) in its temporary directory and offers the user to delete them. Hence, you are strongly advised to copy temporary files that you actually want to keep to another directory immediately after an MMM session. This is particularly important if several users share the same installation of MMM.
The message board is designed for single-line messages and MMM usually sends only single-line messages to it. However, no programmer is perfect, multi-line messages may occasionally arise and lead to overflow. Click the Clear
button to get a clean message board again. This will not affect the log file, if log is activated.

Abu Dhabi carrier Etihad launches more fuel-efficient Boeing 787 Dreamliner
DUBAI: Air Arabia said Monday it would buy 120 Airbus A320s in a deal worth $14 billion that represents a major expansion for the United Arab Emirates low-cost carrier.
“The first delivery is expected to start in 2024,” said Adel Al-Ali, the CEO of Air Arabia, based in the emirate of Sharjah which borders Dubai.
Air Arabia currently operates a total fleet of 53 Airbus A320 and A321 aircraft.
Last month it announced an agreement with Abu Dhabi-based giant Etihad Airways to launch a new low-cost airline based in the UAE capital.
The new carrier, Air Arabia Abu Dhabi, will be launched in “due course,” Etihad said at the time.
Etihad, established in 2003 by the oil-rich Gulf emirate’s government, has faced stiff competition from Dubai aviation giant Emirates and Doha-based Qatar Airways.

Let's start with a definition:
Problem solving refers to cognitive processing directed at achieving a goal when the problem solver does not initially know a solution method. A problem exists when someone has a goal but does not know how to achieve it. Problems can be classified as routine or nonroutine, and as well defined or ill defined. The major cognitive processes in problem solving are representing, planning, executing, and monitoring.
Definitely Learning how to define a problem, break it into manageable parts, and work toward a solution it is a core skill to become a Software Developer. We will find in almost all job descriptions for developers the skill "problem solving".
Therefore, we could reach the conclusion that we must have this skill in order to be a developer. Probably you are asking you self, "Do I have this skill? Can I learn it?".
Steps for Problem Solving
1. Read the problem as many times as necessary to obtain a clear understanding of the problem
2. Work through the problem with sets of sample data
3. Simplify and optimize your steps
4. Write pseudocode
5. Translate pseudocode into code and debug
6. Simplify and optimize your code

The New Funko Hollywood Is An Essential Pop Culture Destination
by Germain LussierWe here at Gizmodo love Funko Pops. We write about them. We buy them. We’ve talked about them being decimated. We’ve even made a pilgrimage to Funko Headquarters in Everett, Washington to visit the flagship store. That place is incredibly epic, as it should be, but it doesn’t come close to touching the toy company’s new store in Hollywood, California.
Located mere feet from the legendary crossroads of Hollywood and Vine, Funko Hollywood opened this week and it’s jaw-dropping. At first, that might seem like an odd thing to say, because from the outside the place looks rather unassuming.
Once inside, though, it’s anything but. You could get lost exploring its 40,000 square feet of nooks and crannies, especially as you walk by all the displays dedicated to basically every single major pop culture franchise or brand out there today. We’re talking Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, Little Mermaid, Frozen, Jurassic Park, Stranger Things, Game of Thrones, Rick and Morty, Friday the 13th, Halloween, It, Nightmare on Elm Street, Beetlejuice, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Nightmare Before Christmas, Aladdin, Mulan, Overwatch, Flintstones, Toy Story, and more. Yes, more.
Obviously, at each of these displays, you’ll find plenty of Funko Pops. However, as someone who collects Funko Pops, I have to say the selection and variety at each individual station isn’t particularly impressive. Most are just your run of the mill Funkos—stuff you can get anywhere. It’s an inventory catering more to passers-by than collectors. This makes sense, since the store is located in a very touristy area, but “overall selection” is the one category the Washington store beats this one in.
And yet, it doesn’t matter. Funko Hollywood is so overwhelming, buying something becomes secondary. The actual reason to visit is to take advantage of all of the pop-culture photo opportunities. They’re amazing. We’re talking life-size Funko versions of every one of those franchises listed above. Usually, more than one character too. Some of the brands even have multiple rooms (like Star Wars, Marvel, and DC) with elaborate sets for you to actually interact with. Others are just the characters standing around to pose with. And seriously, it’s just a nonstop feast for the eyes and your camera. Here’s just a sampling.
And again, that’s just some of it what you’ll find. If you’re in LA and into pop culture, a visit to Funko Hollywood is guaranteed to make you smile and snap way too many photos. Get more info on the Funko Facebook page.

\brief The Compass Service combines information from Pebble's accelerometer and
magnetometer to automatically calibrate
the compass and transform the raw magnetic field information into a \ref CompassHeading,
that is an angle to north. It also
provides magnetic north and information about its status and accuracy through the \ref
CompassHeadingData structure. The API is designed to also provide true north in a future
release.
Note that not all platforms have compasses. To check for the presence of a compass at
compile time for the current platform use the `PBL_COMPASS` define.
To learn more about the Compass Service and how to use it, read the

Determining Direction guide.
For available code samples, see the
feature-compass example.
◆ CompassHeading [1/2]
Represents an angle relative to get to a reference direction, e.g. (magnetic) north. The angle value is scaled linearly, such that a value of TRIG_MAX_ANGLE corresponds to 360 degrees or 2 PI radians. Thus, if heading towards north, north is 0, west is TRIG_MAX_ANGLE/4, south is TRIG_MAX_ANGLE/2, and so on.
◆ CompassHeading [2/2]
Represents an angle relative to get to a reference direction, e.g. (magnetic) north. The angle value is scaled linearly, such that a value of TRIG_MAX_ANGLE corresponds to 360 degrees or 2 PI radians. Thus, if heading towards north, north is 0, west is TRIG_MAX_ANGLE/4, south is TRIG_MAX_ANGLE/2, and so on.

This article may be out of date and has moved to WebFundamentals at https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/service-worker/
Rich offline experiences, periodic background syncs, push notifications— functionality that would normally require a native application—are coming to the web. Service workers provide the technical foundation that all these features will rely on.
A service worker is a script that is run by your browser in the background, separate from a web page, opening the door to features which don't need a web page or user interaction. Today, they already include features like push notifications and in the future it will include other things like, background sync, or geofencing. The core feature discussed in this tutorial is the ability to intercept and handle network requests, including programmatically managing a cache of responses.
The reason this is such an exciting API is that it allows you to support offline experiences, giving developers complete control over what exactly that experience is.
Before service worker there was one other API that would give users an offline experience on the web called App Cache. The major issue with App Cache is the number of gotcha's that exist as well as the design working particularly well for single page web apps, but not for multi-page sites. Service workers have been designed to avoid these common pain points.
Things to note about a service worker:
postMessage
interface, and those pages can manipulate the DOM if needed.onfetch
and
onmessage
handlers. If there is information that you need to persist and
reuse across restarts, service workers do have access to the
IndexedDB
API.A service worker has a lifecycle which is completely separate from your web page.
To install a service worker for your site, you need to register it, which you do in your page's JavaScript. Registering a service worker will cause the browser to start the service worker install step in the background.
Typically during the install step, you'll want to cache some static assets. If all the files are cached successfully, then the service worker becomes installed. If any of the files fail to download and cache, then the install step will fail and the service worker won't activate (i.e. won't be installed). If that happens, don't worry, it'll try again next time. But that means if it does install, you know you've got those static assets in the cache.
When we're installed, the activation step will follow and this is a great opportunity for handling any management of old caches, which we'll cover during the service worker update section.
After the activation step, the service worker will control all pages that fall
under its scope, though the page that registered the service worker for the
first time won't be controlled until it's loaded again. Once a service worker is
in control, it will be in one of two states: either the service worker will be
terminated to save memory, or it will handle fetch
and message
events which
occur when a network request or message is made from your page.
Below is an overly simplified version of the service worker lifecycle on it's first installation.
Grab the caches polyfill from this repository https://github.com/coonsta/cache-polyfill.
This polyfill will add support for Cache.addAll
which Chrome M43's implementation of
the Cache
API doesn't currently support.
Grab dist/serviceworker-cache-polyfill.js
to put somewhere in your site
and use it in a service worker with the importScripts
method. Any script
which is imported will automatically be cached by the service worker.
importScripts('serviceworker-cache-polyfill.js');
During development you'll be able to use service worker through localhost
, but
to deploy it on a site you'll need to have HTTPS setup on your server.
Using service worker you can hijack connections, fabricate, and filter responses. Powerful stuff. While you would use these powers for good, a man-in-the-middle might not. To avoid this, you can only register for service workers on pages served over HTTPS, so we know the service worker the browser receives hasn't been tampered with during its journey through the network.
Github Pages are served over HTTPS, so they're a great place to host demos.
If you want to add HTTPS to your server then you'll need to get a TLS certificate and set it up for your server. This varies depending on your setup, so check your server's documentation and be sure to check out Mozilla's SSL config generator for best practices.
Now that we've got the Polyfill and covered HTTPS, let's look at what we do in each step.
To install a service worker you need to kick start the process by registering a service worker in your page. This tells the browser where your service worker JavaScript file lives.
if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
navigator.serviceWorker.register('/sw.js').then(function(registration) {
// Registration was successful
console.log('ServiceWorker registration successful with scope: ', registration.scope);
}).catch(function(err) {
// registration failed :(
console.log('ServiceWorker registration failed: ', err);
});
}
This code checks to see if the service worker API is available, and if it is,
the service worker at /sw.js
is registered.
You can call register every time a page loads without concern; the browser will figure out if the service worker is already registered or not and handle it accordingly.
One subtlety with the register method is the location of the service worker
file. You'll notice in this case that the service worker file is at the root of
the domain. This means that the service worker's scope will be the entire
origin. In other words, this service worker will receive fetch
events for
everything on this domain. If we register the service worker file at
/example/sw.js
, then the service worker would only see fetch
events for
pages whose URL starts with /example/
(i.e. /example/page1/
,
/example/page2/
).
Now you can check that a service worker is enabled by going to
chrome://inspect/#service-workers
and looking for your site.
When service worker was first being implemented you could also view your service
worker details through chrome://serviceworker-internals
. This may still be
useful, if for nothing more than learning about the life cycle of service
workers, but don't be surprised if it gets replaced by
chrome://inspect/#service-workers
at a later date.
You may find it useful to test your service worker in an Incognito window so that you can close and reopen knowing that the previous service worker won't affect the new window. Any registrations and caches created from within an Incognito window will be cleared out once that window is closed.
After a controlled page kicks off the registration process, let's shift to the
point of view of the service worker script, which is given the opportunity to
handle the install
event.
For the most basic example, you need to define a callback for the install
event
and decide which files you want to cache.
// The files we want to cache
var urlsToCache = [
'/',
'/styles/main.css',
'/script/main.js'
];
// Set the callback for the install step
self.addEventListener('install', function(event) {
// Perform install steps
});
Inside of our install callback, we need to take the following steps:
var CACHE_NAME = 'my-site-cache-v1';
var urlsToCache = [
'/',
'/styles/main.css',
'/script/main.js'
];
self.addEventListener('install', function(event) {
// Perform install steps
event.waitUntil(
caches.open(CACHE_NAME)
.then(function(cache) {
console.log('Opened cache');
return cache.addAll(urlsToCache);
})
);
});
Here you can see we call caches.open
with our desired cache name, after this we
call cache.addAll
and pass in our array of files. This is a chain of promises
(caches.open
and cache.addAll
). event.waitUntil
takes a promise and uses it
to know how long installation takes, and whether it succeeded.
If all the files are successfully cached, then the service worker will be installed. If any of the files fail to download, then the install step will fail. This allows you to rely on having all the assets that you defined, but does mean you need to be careful with the list of files you decide to cache in the install step. Defining a long list of files will increase the chance that one file may fail to cache, leading to your service worker not getting installed.
This is just one example, you can perform other tasks in the install
event or
avoid setting an install
event listener altogether.
Now that you've installed a service worker, you probably want to return one of your cached responses right?
After a service worker is installed and the user navigates to a different page
or refreshes, the service worker will begin to receive fetch
events, an example
of which is below.
self.addEventListener('fetch', function(event) {
event.respondWith(
caches.match(event.request)
.then(function(response) {
// Cache hit - return response
if (response) {
return response;
}
return fetch(event.request);
}
)
);
});
Here we've defined our fetch
event and within the event.respondWith
, we pass
in a promise from caches.match
. caches.match
will look at the request
and find any cached results from any of the caches your service worker created.
If we have a matching response, we return the cached value, otherwise we return
the result of a call to fetch
, which will make a network request and return the
data if anything can be retrieved from the network. This is a simple example and
uses any cached assets we cached during the install step.
If we wanted to cache new requests cumulatively, we can do so by handling the response of the fetch request and then adding it to the cache, like below.
self.addEventListener('fetch', function(event) {
event.respondWith(
caches.match(event.request)
.then(function(response) {
// Cache hit - return response
if (response) {
return response;
}
// IMPORTANT: Clone the request. A request is a stream and
// can only be consumed once. Since we are consuming this
// once by cache and once by the browser for fetch, we need
// to clone the request.
var fetchRequest = event.request.clone();
return fetch(fetchRequest).then(
function(response) {
// Check if we received a valid response
if(!response || response.status !== 200 || response.type !== 'basic') {
return response;
}
// IMPORTANT: Clone the response. A response is a stream
// and because we want the browser to consume the response
// as well as the cache consuming the response, we need
// to clone it so we have 2 stream.
var responseToCache = response.clone();
caches.open(CACHE_NAME)
.then(function(cache) {
cache.put(event.request, responseToCache);
});
return response;
}
);
})
);
});
What we are doing is this:
.then
on the fetch request200
on the response.clone
the response. The reason for this is that because the response is a
Stream,
the body can only be consumed once. Since we want to return the
response for the browser to use, as well as pass it to the cache to use, we
need to clone it so we can send one to the browser and one to the cache.There will be a point in time where your service worker will need updating. When that time comes, you'll need to follow these steps:
install
event will be fired.activate
event will be fired.One common task that will occur in the activate callback is cache management. The reason you'll want to do this in the activate callback is because if you were to wipe out any old caches in the install step, any old service worker, which keeps control of all the current pages, will suddenly stop being able to serve files from that cache.
Let's say we have one cache called 'my-site-cache-v1', and we find that we want to split this out into one cache for pages and one cache for blog posts. This means in the install step we'd create two caches, 'pages-cache-v1' and 'blog-posts-cache-v1' and in the activate step we'd want to delete our older 'my-site-cache-v1'.
The following code would do this by looping through all of the caches in the service worker and deleting any caches which aren't defined in the cache whitelist.
self.addEventListener('activate', function(event) {
var cacheWhitelist = ['pages-cache-v1', 'blog-posts-cache-v1'];
event.waitUntil(
caches.keys().then(function(cacheNames) {
return Promise.all(
cacheNames.map(function(cacheName) {
if (cacheWhitelist.indexOf(cacheName) === -1) {
return caches.delete(cacheName);
}
})
);
})
);
});
This stuff is really new. Here's a collection of issues that get in the way. Hopefully this section can be deleted soon, but for now these are worth being mindful of.
If a worker registers, but then doesn't appear in
chrome://inspect/#service-workers
or chrome://serviceworker-internals
, it's
likely its failed to install due to an error being thrown, or a rejected promise
being passed to event.waitUntil
.
To work around this, go to chrome://serviceworker-internals
and check "Opens the
DevTools window for service worker on start for debugging", and put a debugger;
statement at the start of your install
event. This, along with "
Pause on uncaught exceptions", should reveal the issue.
When you use fetch
, by default, requests won't contain credentials such as
cookies. If you want credentials, instead call:
fetch(url, {
credentials: 'include'
})
This behaviour is on purpose, and is arguably better than XHR's more complex
default of sending credentials if the URL is same-origin, but omiting them
otherwise. Fetch's behaviour is more like other CORS requests, such as
, which never sends cookies unless you opt-in with
.
By default, fetching a resource from a third party URL will fail if it doesn't
support CORS. You can add a non-CORS option to the Request
to overcome this,
although this will cause an 'opaque'
response,
which means you won't be able to tell if the response was successful or not.
cache.addAll(urlsToPrefetch.map(function(urlToPrefetch) {
return new Request(urlToPrefetch, { mode: 'no-cors' });
})).then(function() {
console.log('All resources have been fetched and cached.');
});
The srcset
attribute or the <picture>
element
will select the most appropriate image asset at run time and make a network request.
For service worker, if you wanted to cache an image during the install step, you have a few options:
<picture>
element and srcset
attribute will requestRealistically you should be picking option 2 or 3 since downloading all of the images would be a waste of memory.
Let's assume you go for the low res version at install time and you want to try and retrieve higher res images from the network when the page is loaded, but if the high res images fail, fallback to the low res version. This is fine and dandy to do but there is one problem.
If we have the following two images:
| Screen Density | Width | Height |
| 1x | 400 | 400 |
| 2x | 800 | 800 |
In a srcset image, we'd have some markup like this:

If we are on a 2x display, then the browser will opt to download image-2x.png
,
if we are offline you could .catch
this request and return image-src.png
instead if it's cached, however the browser will expect an image which
takes into account the extra pixels on a 2x screen, so the image will appear as
200x200 CSS pixels instead of 400x400 CSS pixels. The only way around this is to
set a fixed height and width on the image.

For <picture>
elements being used for art direction, this becomes considerably
more difficult and will depend heavily on how your images are created and used,
but you may be able to use a similar approach to srcset.
There is a list of documentation on service worker being maintained at https://jakearchibald.github.io/isserviceworkerready/resources.html that you may find useful.
If you get stuck then please post your questions on Stackoverflow and use the 'service-worker' tag so that we can keep a track of issues and try and help as much as possible.

The Shitty $60 Closet Organizer Standing Desk
Sitting all day can put a lot of strain on your body and there are numerous studies showing the negative affects on the body. I have also heard of studies claiming the opposite and claiming that standing can causing stress to your legs and is worst than sitting. This reminds me of a skit from the show Portland where a couple reads endless series of conflicting studies and end up dying from confusion. My solution is to alternate between sitting and standing all day.
What every web designer can learn from Project Runway
With years of being subjected to crappy and/or “girly” television shows, due to my wife holding the remote with more gusto than I do, I have learned to actually enjoy some of the shows that I would otherwise never watch. One of the shows I have learned to appreciate is Project Runway – a Lifetime reality show that chronicles 16 designers with “a passion for fashion”, all of whom are competing to win the grand prize. Coming from a web design/development background, I found myself easily relating to all the fashion designers battling it out on the show. Creating something from nothing is a common “thread” between both fields and they share similar processes and pitfalls.
You are never too old to build forts
I have always wanted to build some sort of fort at Kezar but have never gotten around to doing do since most of my time is spent lazing around the lake. The show Treehouse Masters did get me jazzed to build something on the land this year. Initially, I wanted to build a treehouse but researching treehouse construction and the costs, I decided I needed a lower budget alternative.
Having a wall tent from lively out west, I figured to have a nice cost efficient solution until I could build something more substation.  So I set out to build a platform that it could sit on top and be level and dry.


Single Cell ToolKit (singleCellTK, SCTK) enables importing data from the following pre-processing tools
In all cases, SCTK retains the standard output directory structure from the upstream tools.
Meanwhile, SCTK also supports importing raw count matrix, with metadata, stored in the following format
A chart at the bottom of this documentation summarizes the expected directory structure of the input data, for each type of data source.
To view detailed instructions on how to import data, please select, from the tabs below, “Interactive Analysis” for importing data into the Shiny application, or “Console Analysis” for importing into R environment via R console.
Introduction
This page is the landing page of the SCTK UI application. Here SCTK allows users to import multiple datasets at once, and the datasets can be in various forms, as listed above. SCTK also provides online example datasets.
Generally, the UI contains mainly two sections for importing and another section for data summary. Through the first section, users can choose the type of a single data source and specify the location of the data from this single source. A table in the second section summarizes files and samples that are specified from all sources. To finally import all samples into one dataset, clicking on the “import” button right below this table. After successfully importing the dataset, a summary table together with some setting options will be shown in the third section.
1. Add sample to import
The first section introduced above is embedded in the the collapse box “1. Add sample to import”. For a single source of data, users need to choose one option from the radio buttons listed in the screenshot. The next step will depend on the option chosen.
The preprocessing tools that SCTK supports are circled in the screenshot above and the links for them are listed at the top of this documentation. To import the data processed by any one of these tools, select the corresponding radio botton, and click on button “Add a sample”. After this, a dialog modal will pop up with description that instructs you to select the directory that stores your data.
The import procedure for Cell Ranger versions 2 and 3 are the same. To import a Cell Ranger sample, the user must select how they would like to import the sample: select a base directory that holds multiple sample directories, select a single sample directory, or select a directory holding the data files for a sample. Depending on this selection, the user must then provide the apprpriate directory paths and sample names and then click “OK.”
To import a STARsolo sample, the user must select the parent directory of the "Gene/"
directory for the sample they want to import, name the sample, and click “OK.”
To import a BUStools sample, the user must point to the "genecount/"
directory for the sample they want to import, name the sample, and click “OK.”
To import a SEQC sample, the user must point to the directory that contains the barcodes, gene, and matrix files for the sample they want to import and name the sample. This tool additionally needs the user to specify a “Sample ID” which is what the name of the sample is as it appears in the names of its data files (e.g. for a file called "pbmc_1k_sparse_counts_barcodes.csv"
the sample ID is "pbmc_1k"
). Then the user must click “OK.”
To import an Optimus sample, the user must select the directory that contains the following four directories for the sample they want to import: "call-MergeCountFiles"
, "call-MergeCellMetrics"
, "call-MergeGeneMetrics"
, "call-RunEmptyDrops"
. Then the user must prove a sample name and click “OK.”
To import tab-separated data, the user must provide a counts file (.csv or .tsv) and specify what type of input assay it is. The user can optionally also provide cell annotation and feature files (also .csv or .tsv). The user must then click “Add to dataset list” to add it to the table of samples.
After choosing a single file for uploading, user must wait until the progress bar runs to the right end and says “Upload complete”. Sometimes the progress bar runs to the end but it takes some time for the system to finalize reading a large file.
SingleCellExperiment
or Seurat
Object in an RDS fileRDS is a file format that stores a single object from R environment. To import a single-cell dataset stored in a SingleCellExperiment
(SCE) object from an RDS file, the user can simply select which RDS file to import and click “Add to Sample List”.
After choosing a single file for uploading, user must wait until the progress bar runs to the right end and says “Upload complete”. Sometimes the progress bar runs to the end but it takes some time for the system to finalize reading a large file.
Users can also opt to import and work with published example datasets. To do so, the user must select which dataset they would like to use from the dropdown menu and click “Add to Sample List”. For more information about the chosen dataset, users can click on the hyperlink of the title and open the reference website in a browser.
2. Create dataset
Each time users add a sample/dataset, the second collapse box “2. Create dataset” will automatically pop up and show the list of samples that are already added. Users can click on either the first collapse or the button “Add one more sample” to go back and add a new sample. At this point, the samples are just on a wait list but not imported yet.
The [X]
button on the right of each row works for removing the corresponding sample from the wait list, before finally importing them. The button “Clear Sample” clears all samples in the wait list, but do not interfere what has been imported.
When ready, click on button “Import” to start importing.
3. Data summary
Upon successfully importing all samples/datasets, the third collapse box “3. Data summary” will automatically pop up. There will be a summary table for the stats of each sample. and preset options for downstream analysis.
SCTK provides wrapper functions that import data from the output of all pre-processing tools mentioned at the top. A list of these import functions will be followed. All the import functions return the imported counts matrix as a SingleCellExperiment object assay
, with associated information in respective colData
, rowData
, reducedDim
, and metadata
fields.

Volunteering overseas
Volunteering overseas, when done with a reliable organisation, offers access to a different culture and an immersive way to encounter and learn about people. There are lots of organisations advertising for volunteers abroad and we’d recommend you investigate what they offer to make sure it’s right for you and ethical.
Volunteering overseas can be expensive, some organisations offer bursaries to help volunteers meet the costs - see organisation on the right of this page under 'elsewhere on the web'.
What are your motivations?
Understanding what you want to gain from your experience of volunteering abroad will help you make your selection.
- Are you looking for experience to gain new skills or personal development?
- Do you want to experience another culture?
- Do you want to learn a new language or improve your language skills?
Check out the University-run scheme Warwick in Africa Warwick in Africa offers placements of up to seven weeks teaching either Maths or English to young people in one of our partner schools.
Choosing an organisation
Some organisations are profit-making tourism businesses offering a holiday with ‘volunteering’ as part of an adventure holiday package. Check the information about the placement provided in order to gauge the quality – it should be thorough and comprehensive.
Questions to ask when selecting an opportunity
Project background and ethics
- How was the project identified? Was it from a local perspective, either through a local organisation or via consultation with the local community?
- Is there a local partner organisation with responsibility for designing and managing the project?
- Is the project being sustained after the volunteers leave or has it been set up as a one-off opportunity that will only have short term benefits?
- What is the organisation's philosophy towards development? Whilst many organisations have deep rooted, sustainable links with communities and local people, others operate on a more commercial basis. In some cases, projects have been accused of taking employment opportunities from local people. Check online reviews of the organisation.
Project benefits
- Who will benefit from the project?
- How will the expectations of the local stakeholders be managed?
- Is there a genuine need for volunteers to do this or has the opportunity been created as an adventure holiday?
- How can I be sure that the opportunity is not taking away the chance of paid employment for a local person?
- Will anyone be adversely affected by the project? A good example of when volunteering adversely affects the people you are trying to help is orphanage volunteering, the child’s welfare is not always the central aim of the orphanage. In some countries, the children in the orphanage have parents and family but have been placed in the orphanage because of government intervention, whilst in other countries orphanages are run by corrupt organisations whose overarching aim is to attract charitable funding and support.
The job
- Has the volunteer role been clearly defined? A good volunteering programme should be able to tell you exactly what you will be doing, the number of hours/days a week and the type of work, as well as who you will be reporting to and where you will be located for the placement.
- Will the volunteers be provided with training before the programme and support during and afterwards?
- What skills are required? For example, will you need to know the language of the host country?
- Who will you be volunteering with? Will you be on your own, is there a group of volunteers, or does the role involve working alongside local people?
Reputation
- Does the Foreign and Commonwealth Office approve of travel to this country? What advice do they give?
- Is the organisation linked to other reputable companies? Does the organisation have travel or government endorsements?
- How and why has the organisation been set up and what sort of organisation is it (e.g. NGO, charity or profit making company)?
- How long has the organisation been running and how many people do they send overseas?
- Can I speak with volunteers who have returned from the project to find out about their experiences? Do they have feedback from previous volunteers on their website?
Practical arrangements and things to think about
- What am I getting for my money? What proportion of the cost goes towards administration and marketing and what goes to the local project that is hosting me? (You can ask for more information from the organisation if this is not provided initially.)
- What support and training am I provided with, both before and after?
- What happens if something goes wrong - for example if I am very ill or have to get home unexpectedly? Is repatriation included?
- Does the organisation have contingency plans for a crisis? Is there an evacuation plan?
- Will I need my own travel insurance and does the organisation's insurance cover me for the kind of work that I will be doing? (Think about insurance cover for health, belongings and the failure of the volunteering organisation to deliver the placement, e.g. is the organisation covered by ABTA or similar?).
- Is there in-country support for the volunteers? This includes practical arrangements such as travel, accommodation and meals as well as support to do the job? Is the in-country support based near to your placement?
- What sort of accommodation and facilities are provided? Will you be housed with a local family? Do they receive support from the organisation? How are they vetted? Be prepared to ask questions about facilities and living standards so that you know before you go what to expect.
- Is there a programme of social activities, a cultural programme and/or language classes available during the volunteering placement? If so, what type?
- Consider the gender politics of the host country, are there gender norms that are different from what you are used to? Are you prepared to adapt? Does the host country have laws relating to sexual orientation and if so, what strategy is in place for this from the volunteering organisation, do they provide support?


 Call it what you will. I will not describe the mental effects of meth, as most other reports about meth do a fine enough job of that.  That being said, it doesn't matter; I still battle the meth demon to this day, I miss the rush and euphoria with a passion. Weird huh?
Anyway, as the title of my story suggests, the effects that begin to materialize after years of chronic crank use are absolutely hideous.
My method of ingestion was smoking. Whether it was with a custom-made pipe, a gutted lightbulb or a scrap of foil, I LOVED smoking crank. For three years I smoked and smoked and smoked. It was an absolute blast being tweeked for a night while at a party, or just hanging with friends and playing endless card games and having conversations about gibberish (gibberish that seemed intellectually stimulating at the time).  What was once just a party, a cheap thrill, became a way of living.
First, we'll start with my lungs. Since I was a crank smoker, I was constantly bombarding my throat and lungs with millions of chemical by-products. After stopping use, I was constantly hacking up thick goobers of foul tasting sputum. Sometimes it looked as though there was a streak of blood in it, but that was probably my imagination. Keep in mind too, that I don't smoke cigarettes or cannabis, so my bronchial problems were a direct result of smoking meth.
Then, my appetite. Every tweeker knows that your diet isn't the best when you're on the stuff. When I was recovering, I was constantly eating, to bizarre proportions.  Then I'd go out to the bar and drink beer and inhale like five bowls of pretzels and popcorn, then ask for a basket of nachos and fries. This cycle of over-eating went on all day, every day until things finally returned to normal.
Then there was the sex drive.    When I stopped taking meth, sex didn't appeal to me anymore.
I was always looked at as a 'cute boy next door' when I was a teen. I had a clean-cut, babyface appearance, with a dark tan and blonde hair. After binging on crank for so many years, my boyish good looks faded to what looked like a weather-beaten fisherman. I had dark rings under my eyes from so much sleep deprivation, my face just looked beaten, tired and drawn out. My hair was scraggly and stringy. It took me about six months to get my regular healthy facial features back.
Lastly, my overall energy levels dropped dramatically. I was always fatigued. I would sleep 12-14 hours a night and wake up the next day feeling like I only slept for an hour. Sometimes I would wake up shaking like an alcoholic. I don't know if this was a withdrawal effect or not, but I can't explain it.
Stopping the cycle, the vicious meth cycle, was the best thing I ever did for myself, of course. To any addict out there who wishes to stop and recover: dig it, it's very tough and it takes a long time. But good things take time. Have patience and willpower and before you know it, you'll marvel at how great it is to have your body back to normal.
Peace.

Maintaining secure variables in .travis.yml¶
To be added:
- interactions with travis-ci from CLI (gem install –user-install travis)
- how to update secure values in .travis.yml (S3, flowdock)
This section collects miscellaneous information that may be of use to anyone developing Bokeh. Help organizing and improving this material is welcome.
There are several environment variables that can be useful for developers:
BOKEH_BROWSER
— What browser to use when opening plotsValid values are any of the browser names understood by the python standard library webbrowser module.
BOKEH_DOCS_CDN
— What version of BokehJS to use when building sphinxdocs locally.
BOKEH_DOCS_VERSION
— What version of Bokeh to show when building sphinxdocs locally. Useful for re-deployment purposes.
BOKEH_LOG_LEVEL
— The BokehJS console logging level to useValid values are, in order of increasing severity:
trace
debug
info
warn
error
fatal
The default logging level is info
.
Note
When running server examples, it is the value of this
BOKEH_LOG_LEVEL
that is set for the server that matters.
BOKEH_MINIFIED
— Whether to emit minified JavaScript for bokeh.js
Accepted values are yes
/no
, true
/false
or 0
/1
.
BOKEH_PRETTY
— Whether to emit “pretty printed” JSONAccepted values are yes
/no
, true
/false
or 0
/1
.
BOKEH_PY_LOG_LEVEL
— The Python logging level to setAs in the JS side, valid values are, in order of increasing severity:
debug
info
warn
error
fatal
none
The default logging level is none
.
BOKEH_RESOURCES
— What kind of BokehJS resources to configureFor example: inline
, cdn
, server
. See the
Resources
class reference for full details.
BOKEH_ROOTDIR
— Root directory to use with relative
resourcesSee the Resources
class reference for full
details.
BOKEH_SIMPLE_IDS
— Whether to generate human-friendly object IDsAccepted values are yes
/no
, true
/false
or 0
/1
.
Normally Bokeh generates UUIDs for object identifiers. Setting this variable
to an affirmative value will result in more friendly simple numeric IDs
counting up from 1000.
BOKEH_VERSION
— What version of BokehJS to use with cdn
resourcesSee the Resources
class reference for full details.
The CSS for controlling Bokeh presentation are located in a bokeh.css
file
that is compiled from several separate .less
files in the BokehJS source
tree. All CSS classes specifically for Bokeh DOM elements are prefixed with
the string bk-
. For instance some examples are: .bk-sidebar
, .bk-toolbar-button
, etc.
Furthermore, BokehJS ships with its own version of Bootstrap.
To prevent name collisions, the version of Bootstrap CSS that Bokeh uses has
been entirely prefixed with the prefix bk-bs-
.
To be added:

To be added:
During development, depending on the type of configured resources, aggressive browser caching can sometimes cause new BokehJS code changes to not be picked up. It is recommended that during normal development, browser caching be disabled. Instructions for different browsers can be found here:
Additionally some browsers also provide a “private mode” that may disable caching automatically.
Even with caching disabled, on some browsers, it may still be required to sometimes force a page reload. Keyboard shortcuts for forcing page refreshes can be found here:
If it appears that new changes are not being executed when they should be, it is recommended to try this first.
Supposed you want to add a model for a Button widget. This must be accompanied by a collection and (most often) a view. Follow this steps:
There is one model per source file policy. The file name is the snakified version of the model name. In this case button.coffee.
Choose location of the source file under bokehjs/src/coffee. This depends on the role of your model. Button is a widget, so it goes into widget. If you create a group of related models, then you may consider adding a subdirectory that will contain those models. Do not add top-level directories unless you add a completely new kind of functionality to bokeh.
Update bokehjs/src/coffee/common/base.coffee. This is required for model loader to be able to resolve your new model. Two additions are necessary. First, add module path to define [...]. Then update locations: ... mapping with model name and module path entry. Module path is source file path relative to bokehjs/src/coffee directory and without extension. In this case it’s widget/button, so you add widget/button to define [...] and Button: `widget/button to locations: .... Make sure to add them under appropriate sections, preferably in lexicographic order or group by functionality.
Create the source file using the following template:
define [
"underscore"
"backbone"
"common/continuum_view"
"common/has_parent"
"common/logging"
"./button_template"
], (_, Backbone, continuum_view, HasParent, Logging, template) ->
logger = Logging.logger
class ButtonView extends continuum_view.View
tagName: "div"
template: template
events:
"click": "on_click"
on_click: () ->
logger.info("click!")
initialize: (options) ->
super(options)
@render()
@listenTo(@model, 'change', @render)
render: () ->
@$el.empty()
html =<EMAIL_ADDRESS>@$el.html(html)
return this
class Button extends HasParent
type: "Button"
default_view: ButtonView
defaults: () ->
_.extend({}, super(), {
text: 'Button'
}
class Buttons extends Backbone.Collection
model: Button
return {
Model: Button
Collection: new Buttons()
View: ButtonView
}
Note that this is just a template, so make sure you change it accordingly to your application. However, most implementation will have to have three classes defined: a model, a collection and a view, which must directly or indirectly inherit from HasProperties, Backbone.Collection and continuum_view.View respectively. In this case you can see that the model inherits from HasParent which in turn inherits from HasProperties. If a view is defined, the model must have default_view defined. You are not forced to use ECO templates for rendering of a view, but it’s encouraged, because it takes care of variable encoding, so it’s less likely to introduce XSS vulnerabilities this way. Otherwise, take advantage of jQuery’s APIs, like $(...).text(“foobar”). Do not use plain string concatenation or interpolation, because you will quickly compromise security this way.
Test your new module in development and production modes (i.e. with require() and r.js). Your module can work perfectly in one mode and not load at all in the other, so keep that in mind.

Starting to start a new project.
After an extra long fourth of July break I'm am thinking about starting a new project. I always feel like I wait to long to start posting about these things, so this time I'm getting a head start. I'm thinking about building a 2D tile based roguelike... thing. My main interests are playing around with tile based pixel graphics, playing around with Procedural Generation, and building some kind of interesting simulation.
Over the past couple of days I've been researching and experimenting with game frameworks programmable with C#. I really liked CocosSharp and was going to go with it, but it doesn't provide an easy way to build a desktop app. I would like whatever I make to run on Android, but running on Windows desktop is my first priority (since that is my dev environment). I have settled on MonoGame even though I don't particularly like it. It is both a heavy weight framework, and very low level. It also has practically no documentation. I thought a number of times that I would rather just use the HTML5 canvas but I really want to get some more experience with C#.
I also spent some time looking for assets. I found a really awesome and huge set of sprites: DawnLike - 16x16. It apparently started as a tileset for NetHack, but now contains all kinds of things. I actually don't like the wall tiles, but it will be great to get started with. I also downloaded Tiled the map editor. I don't plan on using pre-built maps, but it has been handy for experimenting with the tileset, and I used it to reorganize everything into a few large sprite sheets.
After installing MonoGame last night and creating a new empty project I spent quite a while staring at the default template trying to decide where to start. I really wanted to just jump in and get some graphics on the screen, but even that will require some infrastructure. The first problem though is where to put stuff.  Afterward I wrote up a little readme file to record and solidify my ideas.
Here is my white board sketch:
I want something sort of like MVVM. I changed the names to better reflect the intent of each module:
- Simulation - This is the model, in charge of game objects and their interactions.
- Display - This is the view, in charge of rendering graphics to the screen.
- Director - This module connects the simulation to the display.
I want the display and simulation to be completely isolated from each other. The display will tick at 60hz and manage all the animation and raw input. The simulation will be ticked manually by the director. I also want to play around with custom events for communicating changes to the director. The structure isn't completely clear to me yet, but I at least have a place to start building the rendering code.
Here is a neat MVVM graphic I found in this Microsoft article


Atten: Sir, It is obvious that this proposal will come to you as a suprise. This is because we have not met before but I am inspired to sending you this email by the huge fund transfer opportunity that will be of mutual benefit to the two of us. However, I am Barrister Maxwell Obiekwu,the personal attorney to the late Engr. Suk Hun Wufei, a Citizen of Japan, who used to work with Nigerian National Petrolum Co-operatrion (NNPC). On the 26th of August 1999, my client,his wife and their three were involved in a fatal house explossion at Nigerian National Petrolum Co-operatrion (NNPC) quaters Lagos. Unfortunately they all lost their lives including other people in the premises. Since then I have made several enquiries to several Embassies to locate any of my clients extended relatives, this has also proved successful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the Internet to locate any member of his family but of no avail, hence I contacted you. I contacted you to assist in repartrating the money and property left behind by my client since I have no place to locate any of his relatives. I can easily convince the bank with my legal practice that you are the only surviving relation of my client. Otherwise the Estate he left behind will be confiscated or declared unserviceable by the bank where this huge deposits were lodged. Particularly, My late client had an account with one of the banks in Republic of Ghana valued at about US$9.3Million (Nine Million Three Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) which I witness the documentations and the documents are with me. Conseqently,The bank issued me a notice to provide the next of kin to my client or have the account confiscated within the next twenty-one official working days since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the relatives for over several years now. I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased so that the proceeds of this account valued at US$9.3Million (Nine Million Three Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) will be paid into your account and then you and I can share the money. 55% to me and 40% to you,while 5% should be for expenses,tax as your government or Replic of Ghana may require. I have all necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make. All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me by return email or call me on 234 80371 89723. Yours Faithfully, Barrister Maxwell Obiekwu . N.B. Please indicate your telephone and fax numbers for easy communication in this mutual transaction.
