Don't let your links rot! Type in any series of links, or text with links, and this tool will automatically make them permanent! Supports Markdown, HTML, or any sort of text or links.
Automatically uses the Internet Archive. If you'd like to use perma.cc instead, simply enter your API key.
Link rot is real, it is common, and it is pervasive. What is link rot? Link rot is essentially the process by which hyperlinks cease to function, usually because the web page or server they point to has moved or has become permanently unavailable. It has existed since the internet began. An example of its influence can be seen as recently as 2000, when a study found that within 24 months, 50% of .com domains and 20% of .gov domains were no longer viable. Another study found that 70% of links in Harvard Law Review and 50% of links within the United States Supreme Court opinions are no longer viable. If we are to take the internet as a primary resource seriously, then we seriously need to think about undertaking a better way of long-term preservation of link contents.
Link rot can be combated in several ways.

Middleware
Scraper
The PopApiScraper
middleware implements a strategy pattern where you can
use your own Providers
(strageties) for scraping content from the web.
import os from 'os'
import { PopApi } from 'pop-api'
import { PopApiScraper } from 'pop-api-scraper'
import { join } from 'path'
import ExampleProvider from './ExampleProvider'
const providerOpts = {
name: 'example-provider', // The name of the provider.
configs: [{ // The configurations to scrape with.
key: 'value' // Put anything you like into the configuration.
}],
maxWebRequests: 2 // The maximum concurrent web requests at a time.
}
PopApiScraper.use(ExampleProvider, providerOpts)
// Join paths for the scraper options.
const tmpDir = join(...[os.tmpdir(), name])
const statusPath = join(...[tmpDir, 'status.json'])
const updatedPath = join(...[tmpDir, 'updated.json'])
const scraperOpts = {
statusPath, // The path to the status file where the scraper status is
// saved.
updatedPath // The path to the updated file where the time of the scraping
// process is saved.
}
PopApi.use(PopApiScraper, scraperOpts)
// Start the scraping process by calling the `scrape` method.
PopApi.scraper.scrape()
Cron
The Cron
middleware allows for the scraping process to be started regularly.
import { PopApi } from 'pop-api'
import { Cron } from 'pop-api-scraper'
const cronOpts = {
cronTime: '0 0 */6 * * *', // The ctron time for the cronjob.
start: false // Start the cron job on creation.
}
PopApi.use(Cron, cronOpts)
// PopApi.cron will be an instance of: https://github.com/merencia/node-cron

Skupper resources on Kubernetes
The following sections describe the various Skupper resources on Kubernetes, for example, service accounts
Service accounts, roles and role bindings
When you create a Skupper site, the following resources are created.
- skupper-service-controller
-
A service account, role and role binding with this name are created to manage the Skupper service controller.
- skupper-router
-
A service account, role and role binding with this name are created to manage the Skupper router.
Deployments
Each Skupper site on Kubernetes consists of two deployments:
- skupper-router
-
provides the data plane for the {service-network}.
- skupper-service-controller
-
provides the control plane for the {service-network}.
ConfigMaps
Do not edit these ConfigMap values directly.
- skupper-site
-
site settings, including:
-
console authentication
-
ingress strategy
This ConfigMap is the root object for all the skupper resources; deleting it will remove the Skupper deployment from the namespace.
-
- skupper-services
-
internal representation of the services available on the {service-network}.
- skupper-internal
-
internal router configuration. The service controller determines the values in this ConfigMap based on the services available on the {service-network}.
Secrets
Each site has two kubernetes.io/tls
type secrets, skupper-local-ca and skupper-site-ca:
- skupper-local-ca
-
issues certs for local access.
The local certs are held in:
-
skupper-local-client used by the service controller.
-
skupper-local-server used by the router.
-
- skupper-site-ca
-
issues certs for remote access.
The site ca issued certs are skupper-site-server which holds the certs that identify the router to other routers that link to this site, skupper-claims-server which identifies the claims service, which is part of the service controller and is used when another site first established a link to exchange a restricted use token for a TLS certificate and skupper-console-certs which holds certs for the console.
The tokens used to establish links creates the following secrets with variable names:
+
-
The site that issues a claim token generates a secret with a UUID name that contains details of any usage restrictions, for example, the number of times you can use the token to create a link and the amount of time the token is valid for.
-
The site establishing the link will have a secret that contains the token claim or certificate. These secrets are typically called
link1
,link2
, and so on.
- skupper-console-users
-
If you configure console authentication using the default
internal
mode, this secret is created and contains the username(s) and password(s) that can be used to access the console. A username and password can be specified usingskupper init --console-user <username> --console-password <password>
. If a username and password are not specified, anadmin
user is created with a generated password.
Services
In addition to the services that are exposed on the {service-network}, the following services are created:
- skupper-router-local
-
The service controller uses this service to connect to and configure the router.
- skupper-router
-
Other sites use this service to access the router over the inter-router or edge ports, although there may be other resources involved, for example, an ingress.
- skupper
-
The console and claims-server are accessed through this service.


'Apple Music for Business' to bring licensed music playback to businesses
Source: Apple
What you need to know
- Apple has announced its brand new service, Apple Music for Business.
- It's run by PlayNetwork.
- It will allow users to get licensed music to be played in retail locations and will feature human-curated playlists and custom recommendations matched to store brands.
Apple has announced the launch of its new Apple Music for Business plans, in partnership with PlayNetwork.
According to WSJ via 9to5Mac, the service will allow businesses to sign up for licensed music that they can play in retail stores.
It will feature human-curated playlists, much like regular Apple Music, but it will also come with custom recommendations matched to individual store brands. There's a dedicated Apple Music for Business app with a user-friendly interface, which gives employees instant access to playlists. Users can control music so as to choose which playlists will appear in each setting or locale, and there are scheduling controls to set specific times and dates for when playlists are played. According to the website:
Partners receive dedicated support designed to get more customers to listen to and share your music—all while earning your brand additional revenue. It's a total end-to-end customer engagement and retention experience.
Businesses will receive marking toolkits that allow them to advertise to customers exactly what music is playing and where they can find it (Apple Music), If customers see this info and sign up for an Apple Music trial, the business will get a referral fee with no cap on earnings. According to WSJ, Harrods and Levi Strauss and Co. have been quietly piloting the service. The website states that the service is now available to enterprise brands.

I'm virtually attending ICLR 2021 so I can tip my toes back into ML. Here are a few papers I found interesting on my exploration on day 1 (some of them appear as posters or oral sessions on later days):
The Traveling Observer Model 🎠
This approach enables multi-task learning by using the same model for all tasks.
🤩 Result On the UCI 121 dataset which has a set of 121 classification tasks, TOM performs very well compared to other approaches.
Key Points
- For each task, a Variable embedding vector \(\mathbf{z}\) is used for both input and output to project tasks to the same space. An encoder takes in \(x_i, \mathbf{z_i}\) where \(\mathbf{z_i}\) is input VE and a decoder uses the encoding and \(\mathbf{z'_i}\) to spit output \(y_i\). In this scheme, encoder and decoder weights as well as \(\mathbf{z_i}\) and \(\mathbf{z'_i}\) are learned. The pytorch forward pass is illustrative
- It is discovered that VEs for inputs of same task exhibit regular structure, often falling on a 1D or 2D manifold. If the inputs fall in a semantic sequence, then a spatial sequence emerges for the corresponding VEs 🆒
Next Steps I'm curious to see if this approach can be used for learning on Multimodal data. There's a great deal of shared knowledge for such inputs in those scenarios.

Find fragments
© 2013-2014 jimivdw | CWI
Please be patient as the Online tool for Fragment-based Molecule Parameterisation is being loaded.


This tool can be used to find the appropriate filter for use in the UVIT VIS channel.
Please choose the primary instrument and provide the RA and DEC coordinates of the sources in sexagesimal units.
Please configure only one VIS filter for your target.
Safe limit for VIS filter is 4800 counts/second.
For good aspect tracking, there should at least be 2 stars within 12' radius of the target with count rates
greater than 30 counts/second (for good S/N) and lesser than 1000 counts/second (to avoid saturation) in the chosen filter.

title: "North America | Forest Medicine"
layout: "default"

"I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees" - Henry David Thoreau
In the southwestern United States, Native American tribes have traditionally been reliant on the open forests for shelter, food, and ceremony.
The medicine gathered in these forests remain an essential and inseparable part of their culture.
Researchers in the United States have investigated the effects of outdoor green spaces on symptoms of attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children.
In a randomized controlled study, doctors at the University of Illinois studied children diagnosed with ADHD who were exposed to three different environments.
After a 20-minute walk in a city park, children experienced substantially improved concentration compared to a 20-minute walk in downtown or residential settings.
Researchers concluded that the positive results were comparable to the effects of Ritalin.
The Japanese practice of ‘shinrin-yoku’ has become a popular practice at spas and treatment centers in the USA and Canada.
There are now programs where one can train to be a ‘Certified Forest Therapy Guide.’
The Plants
Juniperus osteosperma
- Native to the open sparse juniper forests of the Southwest.
- Called Sammapo to the Shoshone, Wapi to Paiute, Paal to Washoe and Bat-they-naw to Arapaho peoples - Utah juniper is widely dispersed
and widely employed medicinally by a number of North American Indian tribes who use it to treat a variety of complaints.
- Native Americans of the Southwest used Juniper berries for the treatment of bladder problems by ingesting them, eaten or placed in tea.
They also used it for rheumatism and arthritis by laying fresh Juniper boughs on coals and having the patient lie down on them in the steam while drinking tea from the leaves.
- The leaf tea was also used by Native American healers as an antiseptic blood tonic and as a laxative.
Cercocarpus ledifolius
- Native to the open woods of the Wasatch, all of Utah, Nevada and other parts of the Southwest.
- The Goshute, Paiute, and Shoshone peoples crushed up dried or slightly burned bark or green wood and used it as a poultice dressing for burns.
- Paiute and Shoshone used a decoction of bark or wood as an Analgesic to treat many ailments, including coughs, colds, cuts, wounds, stomach aches, diarrhea, tuberculosis, and even an "unfailing cure for syphilis”.
- The Navajo drank an extract of mountain mahogany when they ate too much (an early Alka-Selzer!), and the pulverized leaves were sprinkled in water and drunk for a laxative. An extract was also given to women to help them recover from childbirth.
- The Kawaiisu of California boiled the roots and drank the decoction as cough medicine.
- People from some of the northern pueblos once drank a mixture of ground leaves and cold water for a laxative, and the Acomas used to make tea from the boiled leaves.
- A handful of the twigs are boiled for a half-hour and drunk as a laxative or as an aid in shrinking inflamed but not bleeding hemorrhoids or an inflamed prostate gland. In New Mexico the whole leafy branches are placed under mattresses to repel "chinches - bedbugs."
Epilobium angustifolium - Fireweed
- This plant is circumpolar, being native throughout the temperate Northern Hemisphere.
- Fireweed is a healer of burns – both human and soil. Whenever forest fires, volcano eruptions, or bombs have devastated an area, Fireweed is often one of the first plants to naturalize and begin the earths healing process.
- Used for tea, food and medicine by people around the Northern Hemisphere where it is found: the young shoots as a vegetable similar to asparagus, the young leaves as a green, the roots as another vegetable and sometimes roasted and brewed as a coffee substitute (best before the plant flowers), the flowers made into jelly.
- The plant has been used in both European and North American folk medicine traditions to soothe skin irritation and burns, and brewed into a tea to relieve stomach upset, respiratory difficulties, constipation, prostate conditions and urinary difficulties.
- In Sweden, there are supposedly 85 different common names for this plant.
Pinus strobus
- Native to the forests of southeastern Canada and Northeastern United States, especially on sandy drift soils or fertile well-drained soils, sometimes on river banks and rarely in swamps. Often forming dense forests.

- Modern herbalists use Thuja to treat warts and polyps due to its anti-viral proprieties. Thujone (the volatile oil) contains monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, and diterpenes.
- It has demonstrated activity against amoebas, parasites, bacteria, fungi, viruses, and lab results suggests anti-cancer activity.
- Also known as Cedar, it is considered a sacred tree by many North American indigenous people.
- The leaves are rich in vitamin C and a tea made from the leaves and young twigs is used in winter to treat colds, flu, fevers, and arthritic pain.
- A fresh tincture (made by dissolving a plant part or parts in alcohol) is made with summer or fall gathered leaves, is highly antifungal, and immune stimulating.
- Steam made by simmering the dried branches or adding the tincture to hot water, is used to strengthen the lungs and protect from colds. Incense and smudge sticks made from cedar are used to clean indoor air.
- A warm poultice made with stewed cedar leaves, applied to painful joints can bring relief as well.
- Cedar should not be used internally during pregnancy. In high doses it stimulates uterine contractions.

Call me Sandy. Some moons ago - no clue how or when exactly - having no last-minute assignments left to do, and projects, in particular, to obsess with, I thought I would make a simple website and explore the world of writing. It is a way I use to interact with the world and express myself. Whenever I find myself needing to share something; whenever it is good a time, revolutionary March in my soul; whenever I find myself trying out new tech; and especially whenever my curiosity overshadows the other me, that it requires an Aristotelian virtue to prevent me from sinking all my time, and methodically ignoring every other commitment in life - then, I consider it to be the moment of truth.
You can’t get very far in this world without your dossier being there first. – Arthur Miller
I studied Literature with concentration in 19th century literature. Dostoyevsky is my favorite author. There is also a weak spot in me for science fiction, especially anything that Isaac Asimov wrote. Love anime. Also graduated with degrees in Computer Science and Mathematics. Also, thoughts ≠ employer.
