Teen breaks both legs after being hit by car in police chase and hurled through air
Danae Mills-Beresford, 15, also broke her left arm and suffered lacerations to her kidney when she was hit
by Phoebe RamA teenager who was hurled through the air broke both her legs after she was hit by a car being pursued by police.
Danae Mills-Beresford, 15, was walking with her father, Nigel, when she was hit by the car travelling at 70mph, according to the dad.
The incident happened on Tuesday, October 29 around 10pm, when officers from Nottinghamshire Police tried to stop a Vauxhall Astra.
According to police watchdog the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC), which is investigating, a police chase ensued on the Broxtowe Estate when the Astra collided with Danae.
The car was abandoned in Bells Lane and the driver fled on foot.
Nigel, 32, is now desperate to find out who was driving the car that hit Danae - leaving her in need of multiple surgeries.
He said: "The car came out of nowhere. It was horrible. She's doing very well but she is lucky. She's got a long journey ahead of her."
The impact of the crash has left Danae with two broken legs were broken and a broken left arm.
She also has lacerations to her kidney and two black eyes, reports Nottinghamshire Live.
Her mum, Kelly Mills, 30 said there were fears Danae might lose her right leg due to a blockage in her main artery.
She is currently being treated in Queen's Medical Centre and will be having more surgery on Monday to her left leg and wrist.
Mr Beresford recalls the night of the incident, as he was walking with Danae talking about films on the way back from the shops.
Danae and her dad were crossing the road at the junction of Broxtowe Lane and Nuthall Road.
"I tried to push her out the way but she moved back," he said.
"So I grabbed her to pull her back but she got the full impact of the car into her right leg.
"She went into the air and landed quite far away. I was hysterical.

"So I grabbed her to pull her back but she got the full impact of the car into her right leg.
"She went into the air and landed quite far away. I was hysterical.
"An off duty trauma doctor was driving nearby and came to help, followed by a police officer.
"It all happened so fast but it felt like slow motion. I moved away from the scene, and then drove behind the ambulance to the hospital."
Mr Beresford estimated the car was travelling around 70mph in what is a 30mph zone.
"I'm not happy there was a chase in the area. There were a lot of people still walking around.
"Danae is lucky to be alive. One of her trainers is still missing from the night because of how hard she was hit.
"I've thanked a lot of people already for their support but it has been a difficult time. Everyone's been traumatised.
"Both her mum and I are spending most of our time in hospital with Danae.
"I want the people who did it to know what they're responsible for doing. I want justice for my daughter."
The case has been referred from Nottinghamshire Police to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).
A spokesman for the IOPC told Nottinghamshire Live: “We declared an independent investigation on October 30 and have begun to gather accounts from the officers involved, in-car footage from the police vehicles, and other relevant information.
"Our investigation is at an early stage and will examine the circumstances of the brief pursuit.
"We will be contacting the injured girl’s family to explain our role and provide what information we are able as our investigation progresses."
Please call Nottinghamshire Police on 101 if you have any information about the incident. You can also call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111

In Pictures: Parties reveal business plans as TV row ends in court clash
Meanwhile, former Conservative home secretary Amber Rudd gave her support to an independent former Cabinet colleague.
Party leaders shared their visions for business at the CBI conference on Monday, with Boris Johnson pledging to postpone further cuts to corporation tax, and Jeremy Corbyn suggesting Labour would re-nationalise bus services.
Meanwhile, the Liberal Democrats and SNP lost a High Court challenge against ITV over its decision to exclude their party leaders from a televised election debate.

Holy Mass is at the very core of our worship as a Catholic community. Nothing can ever be substituted for the celebration of the Eucharist. But in this exceptional time of difficulty for our communities, our nation, and the whole world, this order of prayer can be offered by individuals and families and engages us in our Sunday celebration of the Word of God. We can pray this prayer in our homes—the “domestic churches” which help build up the Body of Christ on earth—and thus be connected to the entire Church at prayer.
During this time of prayer, we include the opportunity to make a Spiritual Communion. Making a Spiritual Communion is a worthy practice, recommended by innumerable saints throughout the ages, which unites our whole selves to God and his Church.
Taken from the Mass and the Liturgy of the Hours
Leader: O God, ✠ come to my assistance.
Response: O Lord, make haste to help me.
Leader: Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
Response: as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning
our song shall rise to thee.
Holy, Holy, Holy, merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity.
Holy, Holy, Holy! All the saints adore thee.
Casting down their golden crowns
around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee,
God everlasting through eternity.
Holy, Holy, Holy! Though the darkness hide thee,
Though the eye made blind by sin
thy glory may not see,
Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee,
Perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity.
Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!
All thy works shall praise thy Name
in earth and sky and sea.
Holy, Holy, Holy, merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity.
Leader: Let us acknowledge our sins, and seek the Lord’s pardon and peace.
Together: I confess to almighty God
and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have greatly sinned,
in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
through my fault, through my fault,
through my most grievous fault;
therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin,
all the Angels and Saints,
and you, my brothers and sisters,
to pray for me to the Lord our God.
Leader: God our Father, who by sending into the world
the Word of truth and the Spirit of sanctification
made known to the human race your wondrous mystery,
grant us, we pray, that in professing the true faith,
we may acknowledge the Trinity of eternal glory
and adore your Unity, powerful in majesty.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
Together: Amen.
USCCB Audio Recording of Sunday Readings
(Dt 4:32-34, 39-40)
Moses said to the people:
"Ask now of the days of old, before your time, ever since God created man upon the earth; ask from one end of the sky to the other: Did anything so great ever happen before? Was it ever heard of? Did a people ever hear the voice of God speaking from the midst of fire, as you did, and live? Or did any god venture to go and take a nation for himself from the midst of another nation, by testings, by signs and wonders, by war, with strong hand and outstretched arm, and by great terrors, all of which the LORD, your God, did for you in Egypt before your very eyes? This is why you must now know, and fix in your heart, that the LORD is God in the heavens above and on earth below, and that there is no other.
The Word of the Lord.
―Thanks be to God.
(Psalm 33:4-5, 6, 9, 18-19, 20, 22)
Reader: Blessed the people the LORD has chosen to be his own.
Together: Blessed the people the LORD has chosen to be his own.
Reader: Upright is the word of the LORD,
and all his works are trustworthy.
He loves justice and right;
of the kindness of the Lord the earth is full.
Together: Blessed the people the LORD has chosen to be his own.

For he spoke, and it was made;
he commanded, and it stood forth.
Together: Blessed the people the LORD has chosen to be his own.
Reader: See, the eyes of the LORD are upon those who fear him,
upon those who hope for his kindness,
To deliver them from death
and preserve them in spite of famine.
Together: Blessed the people the LORD has chosen to be his own.
Reader: Our soul waits for the LORD,
who is our help and our shield.

Together: Blessed the people the LORD has chosen to be his own.
(Rom 8:14-17)
Brothers and sisters:
For those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received a Spirit of adoption, through whom we cry, “Abba, Father!” The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ,
if only we suffer with him so that we may also be glorified with him.
The word of the Lord.
―Thanks be to God.
(Mt 28:16-20)
The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them. When they all saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted. Then Jesus approached and said to them, "All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age."
The Gospel of the Lord.

Leader: May we give thanks to you for ever,
Response: O Holy Trinity.
Leader: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

Leader: Let us give all honor and glory to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, as we cry
out with joy:
Response: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Leader: Holy Father send your Spirit to us who know not how to pray as we ought,
that he may help us in our frailty, and ask for us those gifts which will make
us pleasing to you.
Response: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Leader: Christ, Son of the living God, you asked the Father to send the Holy Spirit
upon your Church, make us worthy to have this Spirit of Truth with us
always.
Response: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Leader: Come, Holy Spirit, that we may show your fruit in our lives, charity, joy,
peace, equanimity, kindness, generosity, long-suffering, patience,
faithfulness, modesty, self-control, and chastity.
Response: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Leader: Father all powerful, you have sent the Spirit of your Son into our hearts, so
that we cry: Abba, Father, make us submissive to your Spirit that we may be
your heirs, and coheirs with Christ.
Response: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Leader: Christ Jesus, you sent the Paraclete who proceeds from the Father to bear
witness to you, enable us also to be your witnesses before men.
Response: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Leader: In your mercy, continue to sanctify all who are afflicted from the present pandemic, and draw us all closer to you,
and to one another, in this time of suffering.
Response: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Leader: Let us pray together as Jesus taught us:
Together: Our Father, who art in heaven …
Leader: You have given us bread from heaven,
Response: Containing in itself all delight.
Together: My Jesus,
I believe that you are present
in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar.
I love you above all things,
and I desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there
and unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me to be separated from you,
my Lord and my God!
Amen.
Canticle of Zechariah (Luke 1:68-79)
Together: ✠ Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel;
he has come to his people and set them free.
He has raised up for us a mighty savior,
born of the house of his servant David.
Through his holy prophets he promised of old
that he would save us from our enemies,
from the hands of all who hate us.
He promised to show mercy to our fathers
and to remember his holy covenant.
This was the oath he swore to our father Abraham:
to set us free from the hands of our enemies,
free to worship him without fear,
holy and righteous in his sight
all the days of our life.
You, my child, shall be called the prophet of the Most High;
for you will go before the Lord to prepare his way,
to give his people knowledge of salvation
by the forgiveness of their sins.
In the tender compassion of our God
the dawn from on high shall break upon us,
to shine on those who dwell in darkness and the shadow of death,
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.
Leader: ✠ May the Lord bless us, protect us from all evil,
and bring us to everlasting life.
Together: Amen.

microshades-HMP2.Rmd
This vignette uses 16s rRNA sequencing data from the Human Microbiome Project 2. Vaginal microbiome samples from moms will be examined in this tutorial at the Phylum & Genus taxonomic levels.
This data is available in the HMP2Data library. To download use
BiocManager::install("HMP2Data")
.
Learn more about the HMP2 Data here
Additionally, the package speedyseq is necessary to
use the function prep_mdf()
. The package speedyseq provides
faster versions of phyloseq’s plotting and taxonomic merging functions.
Alternatively, the phyloseq object can be melted and transformed by
using phyloseq functions tax_glom()
and/or
transform_sample_counts()
, and melted by using
psmelt()
.
# Load the momspi16S data
ps_momspi16S <- momspi16S()
ps_momspi16S
## phyloseq-class experiment-level object
## otu_table() OTU Table: [ 7665 taxa and 9107 samples ]
## sample_data() Sample Data: [ 9107 samples by 13 sample variables ]
## tax_table() Taxonomy Table: [ 7665 taxa by 7 taxonomic ranks ]
The ps_momspi16S
object contains 9,107 samples. To focus
on a smaller sample size, use phyloseq function
subset_samples()
# Subset the samples
ps_momspi16S_sub <- subset_samples(ps_momspi16S,sample_body_site == "vagina")
ps_momspi16S_sub <- subset_samples(ps_momspi16S_sub, visit_number == 9)
ps_momspi16S_sub
## phyloseq-class experiment-level object
## otu_table() OTU Table: [ 7665 taxa and 22 samples ]
## sample_data() Sample Data: [ 22 samples by 13 sample variables ]
## tax_table() Taxonomy Table: [ 7665 taxa by 7 taxonomic ranks ]
Now that the sample size is reduced (22 samples), begin using microshades functions to evaluate abundance and apply advanced color organization.
# Use microshades function prep_mdf to agglomerate, normalize, and melt the phyloseq object
mdf_prep <- prep_mdf(ps_momspi16S_sub)
# Create a color object for the specified data
color_objs_momspi16S <- create_color_dfs(mdf_prep, cvd = TRUE)
# Extract
mdf_momspi16S_unordered <- color_objs_momspi16S$mdf
cdf_momspi16S <- color_objs_momspi16S$cdf
The dataframe mdf_momspi16S_unordered
contains sample
data and abundance info. The dataframe cdf_momspi16S
stores
the color mapping information used for plotting.
plot_microshades
produces a stacked barplot with ordered
subgroup taxonomy. The darkest shade is the most abundant, and the
lightest shade is the least abundant. (excluding the “other” subgroup
from each of the selected groups)
plot_1 <- plot_microshades(mdf_momspi16S_unordered, cdf_momspi16S)
plot_1 + scale_y_continuous(labels = scales::percent, expand = expansion(0)) +
theme(legend.key.size = unit(0.2, "cm"), text=element_text(size=10)) +
theme(axis.text.x = element_text(size= 6))
The plot above indicates that Lactobacillus is the most abundant
genera in the Firmicutes phyla in this dataset. To see samples arranged
in order of Lactobacillus abundance (or any genus listed in the legend
above) use the reorder_samples_by()
function and then
plot.
# reorder_samples_by will change the order of samples based on an abundance of a specified subgroup taxonomy
# The default subgroup_level is "Genus" and the specified subgroup taxonomy to order by is "Lactobacillus"
momspi16S_ordered <- reorder_samples_by(mdf_momspi16S_unordered,cdf_momspi16S, order = "Lactobacillus")
mdf_momspi16S_ordered <- momspi16S_ordered$mdf
cdf_momspi16S_ordered <- momspi16S_ordered$cdf
plot_2 <- plot_microshades(mdf_momspi16S_ordered, cdf_momspi16S_ordered)
plot_2 + scale_y_continuous(labels = scales::percent, expand = expansion(0)) +
theme(legend.key.size = unit(0.2, "cm"), text=element_text(size=12)) +
theme(axis.text.x = element_blank())


INI Tweaks: Set the default value of iNumHWThreads to 2 in case people dont read the instructions to change it, it is safer to have it set to a value lower than the number of threads you have than having it set higher. Nothing has techincally changed provided people follow the instructions correctly though
INI Tweaks: Removed the [Water] INI changes, as I don't think they help performance at all on high-end PCs and they are also the default settings on the High preset and below so lower-end PCs won't be affected (again provided they read the instructions)
Utilities: Added my own custom INI for NVTF, as the performance INI from the mod page has been removed
Gameplay: Moved JSawyer Ultimate to the Overhauls section. Since it makes the game more difficult by adjusting the default level cap, carry weight, and health formulas, it seems like a better fit. I still would personally use it even on a first-time playthrough, but I received enough complaints for me to move it
Overhauls: Added a custom INI for Unfound Loot that makes it more cohesive with the rest of the guide out of the box
HUD: Removed Consistent Pip-Boy Icons (there is nothing wrong with this mod at all, but VUI+ now includes a remastered version of the interfaceshared0.dds which was the main reason that CPI was included. You should totally keep the mod if you already have it installed, but for s i m p l i f i c a t i o n purposes, it's being removed. CPI's file size was also about 5x more than the rest of the mods included in the guide lol)
Resources: Added guide for generating LOD with FNVLODGen
Resources: Added guide for merging mods with FNVEdit
Bug Fixes: Updated WMIM ESP Replacer to include a vanila copy of the 1hpequip.kf file. This makes the WMIM Wrist Fix redundant without causing any addition bugs like the wrist fix did (since the bug is now fixed on an engine level with JIP LN NVSE)
Bug Fixes: Removed WMIM Wrist Fix (see above)
Utilities: Added Console Paste Support
Bug Fixes: Added No Muzzle Flash Lights
Visuals: Added B42 Weapon Inertia and NV Compatibility Skeleton
Visuals: Added Vanilla LOD (custom mod)
Visuals: Added A Little More Lamplight
Visuals: Added New Vegas Redesigned 2 Revised
Gameplay: Separated the Gameplay section into two sections, Gameplay and Overhauls. Gameplay will contain the smaller mods that don't make the game much harder and just add modern QOL features and stuff. The Overhaul section contains the bulk of the difficulty mods like Unfound Loot and Economy Overhaul)
Gameplay: Added Uncut Wasteland plus NPCs
Overhauls: Added notes to enable bBarterCheckActorBuySellFlags and bLuckDoesntAffectGambling options in Stewie's Tweaks
Overhauls: Added Complex Vendors
Overhauls: Replaced Fallout 3 Economy with Economy Overhaul (Economy Overhaul got updated recently and is back to being my preferred mod)
Overhauls: Added Better Character Creation
Overhauls: Added Better Ghouls
Overhauls: Added The Living Desert (I find it incredibly hard to play without this mod now, the game is just way too empty without it)
Overhauls: Added Mobile Truck Base Remastered (am I shilling all my own mods? maybe)
Visuals Exchanged Yellow Goodbye for Altitude (Altitude is my new weather mod that I just released, which I believe or not prefer)
Visuals Added Simple Interior Lighting Overhaul
General Replaced the home background image with a new screenshot with Altitude. Let me know if you think its kinda hard to read with the white text on the bright lights, its fine for me but I'm sure it varies a lot with monitor settings and all that.
Gameplay Added a custom INI for JSUE, which enables the new "Survival Mode" feature and the lowered XP feature among others
Gameplay Removed Fallout 4 Survival Mode Damage (the Survival Mode option mentioned above in JSUE does the same thing)
Gameplay Added Unfound Loot (great mod, surprised it took me this long to add it)
Gameplay Swapped out OG JSawyer for JSawyer Ultimate Edition (call it a failed experiment. I originally thought OGSawyer's simplicity would make it easier to work with, but it really isn't much simpler that JSUE overall. Plus it probably lead to many more questions about why the guide uses OG instead of JSUE lol)
Finish Because of the above change, the Conflict Resolution FOMOD isn't needed anymore (well, there is still the YUP - GRA Reloacted patch, but that only patched one small harmless record that will be fixed in the next version of the mod so whatever. no harm in keeping it in your LO if you already have it installed)
Bug Fix Swapped out UPNVSE for the new UPNVSE Plus (UPNVSE Plus was specifically made to replace UPNVSE)
Finish The load order and conflict resolution have both been updated to reflect the above change
- [HUD] Finally re-added Consistent Pip-Boy Icons (I feel like I was waiting for something to re-add it, but I can't remember what it was so whatever. gud mod)
Hey, long time no see!
- Added New Vegas Heap Replacer to the Utilities section (finally)
- Changed the installations of the Utilities to manually through MO2 with a note about installing them manually if they don't work when installed through MO2 rather than the other way around (i feel like this was a pretty major source of confusion previously, so hopefully this will clear things up and not totally backfire. Oh and if you already have the utilities installed and working manually, there is no need to change anything)
- Added an ESP replacer for WMIM that strips it down to everything but required texture set/static changes rather than just hiding the ESP (just hiding the ESP caused visual glitches on a few weapons, this will fix that and is still conflict free)
- Various instruction improvements since i can never be satisfied
- Changed the NVTF instructions to use a raised iMaxFPSTolerance (300), as the automatic FPS tolerance setting has some issues and will most likely be removed soon
- Added a changelog!


Challenge your performance intuition with C++ operators
I made a mistake one day. More of a typo really. I used “bitwise and” instead of “logical and” in the code. A colleague of mine noticed that during the review and said something like this. “You shouldn't use bitwise operators instead of logical ones, the latter do short-circuiting.”
Yes. Both parts of that sentence are valid. You shouldn't use bitwise operators instead of logical ones. Logical operators in C++ perform short-circuit evaluation. That's true. But the invisible implication between the two parts is wrong.
Short-circuiting may be or may be not beneficial for the performance. It may be or may be not performed on bitwise operators too. And sometimes you're better off not doing logic the most logical way to begin with.
I want to propose a game. Let's measure things and see if we can predict the measurements before they come. We did a similar thing last year, and that was fun, so why not?
So here is the benchmark example.
#include <chrono>
#include <iostream>
#include <random>
#include <array>
int main() {
using TheType = int;
constexpr auto TheSize = 16 * 10000000;
std::mt19937 rng(0);
std::uniform_int_distribution<TheType> distribution(0, 1);
std::vector<TheType> xs(TheSize);
for (auto& digit : xs) {
digit = distribution(rng);
}
volatile auto four_1_in_a_row = 0u;
auto start = std::chrono::system_clock::now();
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(xs[i] == 1 && xs[i+1] == 1 && xs[i+2] == 1 && xs[i+3] == 1)
++four_1_in_a_row;
auto end = std::chrono::system_clock::now();
std::cout << "time: " << (end-start).count() * 1e-9
<< " 1111s: " << four_1_in_a_row << "\n";
}
I've made several variants of this code, compiled it with clang 3.8.0-2ubuntu4 -std=c++14 -O2, and measured their run time on Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz.
Using your intuition and best judgment, please estimate their relative performance. Please use the slider below the code samples.
Round 1. && vs &
The main question. Is && faster than &?
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)

The trick is in the context. Since == generates only 0 or 1, the short-circuiting for 0 and & is still possible. 0 & anything is still 0. Although, the same trick doesn't work with | anymore.

“Logical and” can also be substituted with a multiplication operator. It has the same truth table on 0 and 1.

There are 4 comparisons and the rest is just about turning flags into registers. I think we can get rid of that.
Round 3. ==, && vs *, +, -
In this simple example, we can substitute almost all the logic with computation. Instead of comparing each value separately we can calculate the squared error for the whole 4-tuple.
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(xs[i] == 1
&& xs[i+1] == 1
&& xs[i+2] == 1
&& xs[i+3] == 1)
++four_1_in_a_row;
...
inline int sq(int x) {
return x*x;
}
...
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(sq(xs[i] - 1)
+ sq(xs[i+1] - 1)
+ sq(xs[i+2] - 1)
+ sq(xs[i+3] - 1) == 0)
++four_1_in_a_row;
They are almost the same.
And this works perfectly. The code is a few lines longer, but there are no comparisons until the very end. Everything is blunt number crunching. Computers love this kind of code.

We don't really need multiplications. We don't really need squared error. Why don't we calculate an absolute error instead?
...
inline int sq(int x) {
return x*x;
}
...
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(sq(xs[i] - 1)
+ sq(xs[i+1] - 1)
+ sq(xs[i+2] - 1)

++four_1_in_a_row;

+ std::abs(xs[i+1] - 1)
+ std::abs(xs[i+2] - 1)
+ std::abs(xs[i+3] - 1) == 0)
++four_1_in_a_row;
They are almost the same.
That's why. Getting an absolute value of an int is not a trivial job. It's not about clipping a bit off; it is a fair comparison and a conditional move. This pair is heavier than a simple multiplication.
That sound a bit like cheating because with single precision types we would have to read two times less from the memory but let's give it a go.
...
using TheType = double;
...
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(xs[i] == 1
&& xs[i+1] == 1
&& xs[i+2] == 1
&& xs[i+3] == 1)
++four_1_in_a_row;
...
using TheType = float;
...
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(xs[i] == 1
&& xs[i+1] == 1
&& xs[i+2] == 1
&& xs[i+3] == 1)
++four_1_in_a_row;
They are almost the same.
And that's the most peculiar thing. Although the code now reads much less from the memory, performance wise it's almost identical to its original form.
This has probably something to do with the bus and the CPU working asynchronously. If the CPU is busy enough, the bus load doesn't matter.
Round 8. 1 vs 0
This is the bonus round. There is a notion, right along with the short-circuiting being good for performance, that the comparison with zero is cheaper than any other comparison. Let's try it out.
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(xs[i] == 1
&& xs[i+1] == 1
&& xs[i+2] == 1
&& xs[i+3] == 1)
++four_1_in_a_row;
for (auto i = 0u; i < TheSize - 3; ++i)
if(xs[i] == 0
&& xs[i+1] == 0
&& xs[i+2] == 0
&& xs[i+3] == 0)
four_0_in_a_row++;
They are almost the same.
Of course, it isn't. It may be contextually beneficial to check against zero because with Intel architecture there is a dedicated zero flag, and most of the time you can read it from the previous operation skipping the comparison part altogether. But in our example, there is no operation to load the zero flag so the code on both sides is almost identical.

Conclusion
Truisms don't help performance. That's my conclusion. We all know that logical operations perform short-circuiting; that floats are shorter than doubles; that throwing away a sign from a number is easier than computing its square. It's all true. It's all irrelevant without a proper context.


Personalization is that fuzzy feeling when the barista knows you by name, remembers your favourite drink and exactly how you like it made.
In hospitality, we always talk about that "wow" factor, which is what differentiates a highly personalized experience from an average one.
The challenge was applying and scaling these principles to make marketing more relevant at the travel loyalty program I worked at.
When I search for a dress on Nordstrom, an algorithm will automatically qualify me for a series of advertisements in hopes of conversion. Data has it that it's effective for some, but honestly intrusive for others.
Instead, personalization should be part of the user engagement strategy rather than a mere feature.
It's about targeting the Right User, at the Right Time with the Right Offer.
Designing personalization features are like constructing IF statements.
As you can see, each feature (the IF conditions) corresponds to different behaviours.
That’s where machine learning algorithms come into play - to rank the importance of each feature for every member and display the message that resonates most with users.
For example, If you have flown over thousands of miles, you are likely to receive “x miles flown with us”. Alternatively, if you are a new joiner and have not accumulated enough transactions, you will likely receive “x miles balance”.
Personalization is a really nice-to-have and often times unexpected touch. For this particular campaign, we acheived 30% open and 4% click rates.
As you build the layers, the fun part is when you start driving engagement and personalizing for it.
For one campaign, I designed an engagement survey where users complete a just-for-fun survey to discover their travel personas. The answers were later used as personalization features. (You can see the full story in Part 2.
Based on the personas, I used dynamic tones and design to resonate with their distinct characteristics. For example, the design for the Captain persona conveys assertiveness vs playfulness for the Adventure Seeker persona.
The design and tone for Captain vs Adventure Seeker
Using the Quant-Qual approach, there are countless ways to slice and dice users and personalization is all about relevancy.
Think about how game changers like FitBit, the wearable tech gadget, revolutionized the fitness game. Their use of personalization features such as your daily steps and weight loss goals are intricately designed as part of the user journey and its micro interactions.
So yes, personalization is beyond retargeting. It's how you stay relevant when designing those cake layers.

Transforms functions of arity N into a chain of N unary functions
This API is still experimental, so it may change or be removed in future versions. You should not rely on it for production applications.
(Number, (Any...) => 'a) => Any... => 'a or ((Any...) => 'a)
Transforms functions of arity N into a chain of N unary functions
const curry = require('folktale/core/lambda/curry');
const property = curry(2, (key, object) => object[key]);
const people = [
{ name: 'Alissa', age: 26 },
{ name: 'Max', age: 19 },
{ name: 'Talib', age: 28 }
];
people.map(property('name'));
// ==> ['Alissa', 'Max', 'Talib']
Currying is the process of transforming a function that takes N arguments all at once, into a series of functions that take one argument at a time. This makes it possible to construct new funcionality by specialising part of the arguments.
For example, the property
function takes two arguments: the object that
contains the property, and the name of the property to retrieve:
const property = (object, key) => object[key];
Because of this, every time someone call property
they must provide both
arguments:
property({ greeting: 'Hi' }, 'greeting');
// ==> 'Hi'
Some of the time, you only have some of the arguments, however. For example,
if you wanted to create a function that always gets the greeting
of a
particular object, you would have to do so manually:
const greeting = (object) => property(object, 'greeting');
greeting({ greeting: 'Hi' });
// ==> 'Hi'
Currying alleviates the need for constructing these functions manually. If
property
was curried, you'd be able to create a new greeting
function
by just specifying some of the arguments, like you would do when invoking
the function:
const property2 = (key) => (object) => object[key];
const greeting2 = property2('greeting');
greeting({ greeting: 'Hi' });
Note that the way we use arguments in a curried function is slightly different. When designing a function to be curried, you should consider which parameters are most likely to be fixed, and which parameters will be provided afterwards. In this case, it's much more likely for someone to have the name of a property than it is for them to have the object in which that property lives:
const score = [{ type: 'win' }, { type: 'draw' }];
score.map(property2('type'));
// ==> ['win', 'draw']
Functional programming places a heavy emphasis on function composition,
but sometimes we have functions that don't exactly fit the places we
want to use them. For example, Array.prototype.map
expects a function
that takes three arguments:
type Array.prototype.map =
Array<'element> . (
('element, index is Number, Array<'element>) => 'newElement
) => Array<'newElement>
That is, given an array of of some element
type, our callback, which
receives not only this element
, but also the index of that element in
the array, and even the original array, is supposed to return a newElement
to put in the old element's place.
We can use Array.prototype.map
to easily transform the data in the
array by some function. To expand a bit on the initial example, suppose
we have an array of people:
const people = [
{ name: 'Alissa', age: 26, pronoun: 'she' },
{ name: 'Max', age: 19, pronoun: 'they' },
{ name: 'Talib', age: 28, pronoun: 'he' }
];
And then you want to get the name of one of those people. We can use
Array.prototype.map
for this:
people.map((element, index, array) => element.name);
// ==> ['Alissa', 'Max', 'Talib']
NOTE
Because functions in JavaScript are variadic, you don't need to create a function with three parameters here. The following code is strictly equivalent:people.map(person => person.name); // ==> ['Alissa', 'Max', 'Talib']
This is all well and good, because this is the only place where we use this kind of functionality. But what if we have very similar functionality in more places. For example, just like we got the names of these people, we could get their ages:
people.map(person => person.age);
// ==> [26, 19, 28]
Or the pronoun they use:
people.map(person => person.pronoun);
// ==> ['she', 'they', 'he']
At this point, we're duplicating this functionality in many places. It would be more productive to move it to a function we can reuse. And this is easy enough:
const property = (object, key) => object[key];
But this attempt is not really a good one in this case. Now composing things is even more trouble:
people.map(person => property(person, 'name'));
Ideally, we'd want:
people.map(property);
But property
takes two arguments, and Array.prototype.map
can only
provide one of them: the object we should retrieve the property from.
Where do we get the other one from? Well, the name of the property is
static. We know exactly what we need from the callsite.
As said in the previous section, thinking about which arguments are likely
to be specified, and what aren't is important when designing curried
functions. For this case, we want to specialise the key
, and leave
object
to be provided by some other piece of code:
const property = (key) => (object) => object[key];
people.map(property('name'));
// ==> ['Alissa', 'Max', 'Talib']
people.map(property('age'));
// ==> [26, 19, 28]
people.map(property('pronoun'));
// ==> ['she', 'they', 'he']
So, with currying, it becomes much simpler to shape a function so it fits the expectations of the place where you want to use it. It alleviates the need of making this translation manually, but it also requires some prior thought on how these functions are likely to be used.
curry
Works?The curry
operation makes it simpler to construct curried functions
that work well with JavaScript, where functions may, and often do, take
more than one argument.
Consider the following example:
const joinedBy = (separator) => (list) => (item) =>
list.concat([separator, item]);
It's a curried function that takes 3 arguments, one at a time. To invoke it one must do so like this:
joinedBy(',')(['a'])('b');
// ==> ['a', ',', 'b']
This makes it harder to use it for functions that pass two arguments to
their callbacks, like Array.prototype.reduce
, because JavaScript passes
them all at once:
['b'].reduce(joinedBy(','), ['a']);
// ==> [<function>, <function>]
This is where curry
helps. It allows you to curry functions, while
unrolling application of more than one argument:
const curry = require('folktale/core/lambda/curry');
const joinedBy2 = curry(3, (separator, list, item) =>
list.concat([separator, item])
);
joinedBy2(',', ['a'], 'b');
// ==> ['a', ',', 'b']
['b'].reduce(joinedBy2(','), ['a']);
// ==> ['a', ',', 'b']
curry
, Under The HoodHow can curry
construct functions that support such different styles
of passing arguments? The secret is in how curry
does unrolling. A
function constructed by curry
takes two arguments:
In return, curry
gives you back a function that, at first, only collects
arguments. That is, until we reach the amount of arguments expected (arity),
applying the curry
ed function gives you back a new function that you
continue to apply:
const curry = require('folktale/core/lambda/curry');
const f = curry(4, (a, b, c, d) => [a, b, c, d]);
// Previous arguments: []
const f1 = f();
// New arguments: []
// Previous arguments: []
const f2 = f1(1);
// New arguments: [1]
// Previous arguments: [1]
const f3 = f2(2, 3);
// New arguments: [1, 2, 3]
// Previous arguments: [1, 2, 3]
f3(4);
// ==> [1, 2, 3, 4]
The curried function keeps track of these arguments in an internal array. This array is not modified when you apply a curried function. Instead, you get a new function with a separate "internal arguments array":
// Previous arguments: [1]
const f2_a = f2(4); // => [1, 4]
const f2_b = f2(5); // => [1, 5]
f2_a(5, 6); // ==> [1, 4, 5, 6]
f2_b(5, 6); // ==> [1, 5, 5, 6]
Once the curried function has collected all of the arguments it needs to, it "unrolls" the application. That is, it provides the arguments collected to the original function:
const plus = (a, b, c) => a + b + c;
const plus2 = curry(3, plus);
plus2(1)(2)(3)
=== plus2(1, 2)(3)
=== plus2(1, 2, 3)
=== plus(1, 2, 3)
=== 1 + 2 + 3;
What happens if a curried function receives more arguments than it expects,
though? If the wrapped function is a regular JavaScript function, it's the
same. curry
passes all of the arguments to it, and because JavaScript
functions are variadic, those additional arguments get (usually) ignored:
plus2(1)(2)(3, 4, 5)
=== plus2(1, 2)(3, 4, 5)
=== plus2(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

If the wrapped function is itself a curried function, things get more interesting though, because the curried functio will, itself, unroll the rest of the application!
const subtract = curry(2, (x, y) => x - y);
const flip = curry(3, (f, x, y) => f(y, x));
subtract(1)(2)
=== subtract(1, 2)
=== 1 - 2;
flip(subtract)(1)(2)
=== flip(subtract, 1)(2)
=== flip(subtract, 1, 2)
=== subtract(2, 1)
=== 2 - 1;
Unrolling makes it possible to compose curried functions naturally, without getting in the way of regular JavaScript functions.
NOTE
Usingcurry
for real variadic functions is strongly discouraged, given that it's hard to predict which arguments will end up being provided to the variadic function.
curry
While curry
certainly helps composing functions, it's important to note
that, because a lot of functions in JavaScript are variadic, and because
people take advantage of this (by relying on the number of arguments
provided for optional parameters or overloading the signature),
composition of such functions is not well-defined, and curry
makes
things even less predictable for these cases.
Because of this, the use of curry
for variadic functions is strongly
discouraged.
One also must consider the overhead of introducing curry
in a codebase.
For most code, this overhead is negligible, but curry
should be avoided
in code paths that require more performance.
(arity, fn) => {
const curried = (oldArgs) => (...newArgs) => {
const allArgs = oldArgs.concat(newArgs);
const argCount = allArgs.length;
return argCount < arity ? curried(allArgs)
: /* otherwise */ fn(...allArgs);
};
return curried([]);
}

Parking is expensive and difficult to find, yet some research suggests that around 3 parking spaces exist for every car.
How can a resource seem scarce, yet actually be so abundant? One contributing factor is that some spaces can only be utilized by a specific person, like a driveway at someone’s house. When the homeowner is away, their driveway is unoccupied, making it an un-utilized resource. Is it possible to make these exclusive resources available to others when their primary owner is not using them? And why doesn’t this happen now? One contributing factor is that there is a mutual lack of trust between the person with the driveway and the person looking for parking.
MeterMaid is an application that enables homeowners to capitalize upon their open driveway space by connecting with drivers seeking convenient and affordable parking. We designed it specifically to facilitate trust between the two parties, particularly on the homeowner’s side by enabling them to monitor their property in the application, report inappropriate or malicious behavior, and filter out and block certain users.
We started our research by understanding the target personas for the application. As part of the assignment, we were provided one for the homeowner and one for the driver.
After examining the personas and problem statement, we conducted an Ecosystem Collection where we discussed what we know about the parking domain, what we don’t know, and what are the critical questions we want to explore. From the ecosystem collection, we determined that we should focus on understanding what the current experience is for people looking for parking as well as understanding the factors that go into successful crowdsharing platforms such as Uber, AirBnB, and eBay, particularly how they build trust between their users.
Based on this focus, we generated the following specific research objectives:
• To gain a more complete understanding of the context in which people look for parking and what they prioritize (proximity,
cost, etc.).
• To understand the existing choices for parking and how they operate.
• To understand the trust mechanics of existing resource sharing services (e.g. AirBnB, Uber) and to understand what led
current users to trust these services.
We had a couple of key takeaways from our Google Survey:
• Several respondents remarked that it is currently very hard to find
available parking and the price of the parking in advance when using
navigation applications such as Google Maps.
• Of the people who took the survey, most indicated that safety is the
most important aspect when considering parking, followed by
availability/ease of parking. Surprisingly, they said price was the least
important, which contradicts the information we had in our scenario
(Rebecca doesn’t want to pay the high fees for parking her car in a lot
near the hospital) as well as what the Freakonomics podcast indicated,
where people in will spend more time driving around looking for a spot
that they do not have to pay for [1].
From the 21 scenarios we generated, we decided to pick 2 scenarios to flesh out in more details in storyboards. Below are a couple of sample storyboards we generated:
Hi, I think you width is too small.
Please make the screen full page to continue.


EXAMPLES
ContentFilteredTopic
1) Description
The ContentFilteredTopic example is used to illustrate message filtering based upon Content-Based subscription.
2) Design
It consists of 4 units :
- CheckStatus : provides return status checking
- DDSEntityManager : implements a class providing operations to set up DCPS entities (creation, deletion)
- ContentFilteredTopicDataSubscriber application uses Content-based subscription
- ContentFilteredTopicDataPublisher generates stock quotes for two ticker symbols, GE and MSFT.
3) Scenario
The ContentFilteredTopicDataPublisher application generates stock quotes for two ticker symbols, GE and MSFT.
In order to subscribe to a particular ticker, the subscriber application ContentFilteredTopicDataSubscriber should be run
with GE or MSFT as command line arguments.
Configurable:
- symbol: the ticker to subscribe to
symbol allows the selection of the ticker to be subscribed to:
- GE : a ticker for General Electric
- MSFT : a ticker for Microsoft

Search for missing man with dementia Alan Mason, 83, last seen in Durham village
Durham Constabulary have now launched a search for Alan Mason who has not been seen for several hours since leaving his home
by Kathryn RiddellA vulnerable pensioner with dementia has gone missing after leaving his home to go on a walk.
Durham Constabulary has now launched a search for Alan Mason who has not been seen for several hours.
The 83-year-old was last seen leaving his home in Sherburn Village, County Durham at 2.20pm on Tuesday to go for a walk.
He normally returns after around 30 minutes, but he has not been seen since.
Due to Alan's dementia he could be confused and officers are becoming "very concerned" for his welfare.
Temperatures across England dropped as low as -7C on Monday night and on Tuesday another cold night has been predicted.
Anyone who sees Alan or knows of his whereabouts is asked to ring Durham Constabulary straightaway on 101, quoting incident number 241 of November 19.

UGRADS Conference

Today we gave our final presentation and presented our project poster at the undergraduate symposium. The reception was positive and we are now looking forward to completing the remaining documentation.


Introduction
Advancements in technology resulting from the internet becoming a mainstream part of our society have brought about countless solutions and improvements to problems in our world that previously seemed impossible. Along with all of the good things that the internet has brought to our world, there have been a number of negative societal effects that have resulted from it as well. Although disconnecting society not inherently built into social networking sites, online dating sites, or other forms of Computer-Mediated Communication, it has been built into them by the people. Motivated by the contrast between Computer-Mediated Communication’s main function of connecting people over the internet and the realities of its side effects on our society, this project explores the implicit negative effects Computer-Mediated Communication has on our interpersonal relationships and our society as a whole.

Text description provided by the architects. A single classroom extension to a primary school for the underprivileged of the neighbourhood of central Bangalore created an opportunity of making the room like a tree house nestled between the existing mango and jack fruit tree so that it could make a diverse space for assembly, parent teacher meetings, children’s activity and break / lunch area.
Although the initial requirement was an additional class room alone on the ground level, it was proposed to make a multifunctional space would not block the ground and open new possibilities of usage, during different times of the day.
Using a metal structure, it is made as a pavilion with perforated sheet and bamboo matts above and an insulated roof.
The school now has a focus area next to the play area, used for simple things like pick up and drop off for children, dining, play, congregation / assembly etc. The classroom above helped create something that the school was not aware of and was missing greatly.
A place that could be made by virtue of just the classroom addition integrated to the stair and main building block of the school.
The landscape strategy with the existing trees, without getting affected also created these trees as the focal points of activities around. The plinth created outside the class room, around the drinking water fountain, around the existing beautiful large trees and the edge of the play area / sand pit create a strong character with their fluid outline – visually soft and much used.
The school being an older entity had no strategy to deal with the rain water and in the process of the treatment of the ground it was integrated for its harvesting and recharge of the ground water table.

Elon Musk's Cybertruck looks like a PS1 game and the memes are rolling in
Rektangle.
by Emma KentIf you've been on the internet today, you may have noticed this:
No, it's not an oversized computer mouse, it's Elon Musk's new Cybertruck: a real, actual vehicle which was unveiled during last night's Tesla event. The truck is already available for pre-order, with prices starting at a cool $39k (£32k) for an expected release in late 2021. The tagline describes it as "better utility than a truck with more performance than a sports car" - a Venn diagram overlap I didn't know existed until now.
As so often seems to happen with live demos, things very quickly derailed, and they derailed hard. To prove the Cybertruck's "armour glass" would not shatter on impact, Musk brought an assistant on-stage to throw metal balls at the truck. Surprise surprise, the window shattered faster than my heart when Fire Emblem wasn't shortlisted for game of the year at the Game Awards, and Musk was left standing in front of his failed creation. Reminds me of some of my university group projects.
But the pain for poor Elon didn't end there, as the internet almost immediately got its claws out and started tearing the Cybertruck to shreds - with many of the jokes dipping into the gaming pool of reference. Comparisons have ranged from the original Tomb Raider to Halo, with fans and developers alike ragging on the low-poly look of the truck. PUBG also got rinsed in a drive-by memeing.
Alongside the polygon jokes, many noticed both the truck and its logo looked suspiciously similar to CD Projekt Red's upcoming game Cyberpunk 2077 - including some of the people working on the game. There was then a short but horrible brandter exchange between the Cyberpunk 2077 and Elon Musk Twitter accounts, which I will subject you to below.
Seems like some CD Projekt Red fans are on board with the idea, too, as Reddit users have been photoshopping the truck into the game's promotional artwork. If we don't see the truck appear in the official game, I'm sure someone will eventually find a way to mod it in.

In the meantime, if you want to count the number of polygons preorder one of these beauties, you can mosey over to Tesla's official website.
