WeWork says it will divest businesses and focus on co-working
by Ellen HuetWeWork said Friday that it added twice as many rented desks at its co-working spaces in the third quarter compared with same period the year before, even as its hotly anticipated initial public offering was imploding. The company also confirmed that it would divest businesses, including Meetup and its investment in the Wing.
The New York-based company shared new information publicly about its business that had been compiled for lenders in October for a potential debt package organized by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The data was previously only available to those who signed nondisclosure agreements, WeWork said.
As it added new members, the beleaguered company reported a drop in occupancy rate, down to 80 per cent from 83 per cent the year before. Occupancy in China and elsewhere in Asia were particularly low.
The investor presentation, which is dated Oct. 11, tries to put a positive spin on the upheaval it went through in the past few months. It describes the “member experience” for its customers as “focused.”

Tropical Storm Fung-Wong to bring wind, rain to Taiwan
CWB not ruling out possibility of issuing sea warning for Tropical Storm Fung-Wong
by Keoni Everington(NOAA animated GIF of Tropical Storm Fung-Wong)
TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Tropical Storm Fung-Wong (鳳凰, Phoenix) has shifted its course north towards the waters off the coast of eastern Taiwan and is expected to bring rain to the northern and eastern parts of the island.
At 2 a.m. this morning (Nov. 21), Fung-Wong was located 540 kilometers southeast of Taiwan's southernmost tip, Eluanbi, moving west-northwest at a speed of 16 kilometers per hour (kph), according to the Central Weather Bureau (CWB). The tropical storm had a radius of 100 kilometers and was packing maximum sustained winds of 82 kph with gusts of up to 108 kph.
The periphery of the tropical storm is predicted to bring brief rains to northern and eastern Taiwan. As the day wears on, rainfall in eastern Taiwan as well as in Taoyuan County and all areas north will begin to increase noticeably.
In addition, the storm's periphery will also bring winds reaching level 8 to 10 on the Beaufort scale to Tainan and areas to the north, to eastern Taiwan (including Green Island and Orchid Island), and to the Hengchun Peninsula, Penghu, Kinmen, and Matsu. As the coasts of these areas will also likely see large waves, members of the public are advised to exercise caution when visiting the beach or engaging in offshore boating.
Meteorologist Daniel Wu (吳德榮) also said that a northeast monsoon will continue to affect Taiwan today, with the weather turning from slightly cold to wet and cool. The temperatures today will range between 17 and 23 degrees Celsius in northern Taiwan, 16 and 29 degrees in central Taiwan, 17 and 30 degrees in southern Taiwan, and 17 and 27 degrees in eastern Taiwan.
The CWB said that although Fung-Wong appears to be weakening slightly and has shifted to the east, it is not ruling out the possibility that it may issue a sea warning later today.

Guitar 🎸
A Cross-Platform String and Regular Expression Library written in Swift.
About
This library seeks to add common string manipulation functions, including common regular expression capabilities, that are needed in both mobile and server-side development, but are missing in Swift’s Standard Library.
The full documentation can be found at http://www.sabintsev.com/Guitar/.
Features
- [x] Boolean Functions (
isAlpha
,isNumeric
,isUppercase
, etc.) - [x] Case Functions (
camelCased
,pascalCased
,kebabCased
, etc.) - [x] Character Functions (
first
,length
,reversed
, etc.) - [x] Latinization Functions (
.latinized()
,.withoutAccents()
) - [x] Padding Functions (
padLeft
,padRight
,pad
) - [x] Regular Expressions (with Common Patterns Built-in)
- [x] Trimming Functions (

Installation Instructions
CocoaPods
pod 'Guitar'
Carthage
github "ArtSabintsev/Guitar"
Swift Package Manager
.Package(url: "https://github.com/ArtSabintsev/Guitar.git", majorVersion: 0)
Usage Examples
Regular Expression
The Guitar
structure itself is used to make it easier to use Regular Expressions to test and evaluate String
objects. Guitar.Chord
enumerates common regular expressions and they are located in GuitarChord.swift. Also, GuitarCommon.swift contains a list of convenience methods for common regular expression evaluations and tests, such as checking the string to determine if it’s a valid email address.
Initialization
Guitar(pattern: String) // A custom regular expression with which to initialize Guitar.
Guitar(chord: Guitar.Chord) // A common regular expression with which to initialize Guitar.
Methods
evaluateForRanges(::)
returns an array of ranges, [Range<String.Index>]
, that match a specific regular expression.
swift
Guitar(chord: .firstCharacter).evaluateForRanges(from: "Hello world") // [Range(Swift.String.CharacterView.Index(_base: Swift.String.UnicodeScalarView.Index(_position: 0), _countUTF16: 1)..<Swift.String.CharacterView.Index(_base: Swift.String.UnicodeScalarView.Index(_position: 1), _countUTF16: 1)), Range(Swift.String.CharacterView.Index(_base: Swift.String.UnicodeScalarView.Index(_position: 6), _countUTF16: 1)..<Swift.String.CharacterView.Index(_base: Swift.String.UnicodeScalarView.Index(_position: 7), _countUTF16: 1))]
evaluateForStrings(::)
returns an array of strings, [String]
, that match a specific regular expression.
swift
Guitar(chord: .firstCharacter).evaluateForStrings(from: "Hello world") // ["H", "w"]
test(::)
evaluates a string with a specific regular expression. true
is returned if matches are found in the string. Otherwise, false
is returned.
swift
Guitar(chord: .email).test(string<EMAIL_ADDRESS>// `true`
String Extension
This library also adds dozens of methods via String
extensions that are missing in the Swift Standard Library or not easily accessible on the String
class. Examples of each new method can be found in the jazzy-powered documentation.
More specific examples can be found in the tests folder.

Audrey finished TYCTR today, and she does indeed know how to read. The challenge for us now is to find material interesting enough to keep her engaged while keeping the vocabulary do-able. She wants to read Anne of Green Gables, but that's got some serious vocabulary. I'm not sure how to proceed on that. I know that she enjoys the story since we've read it twice, and I don't want to limit her, but I don't want to give her something that would be discouragingly difficult. We'll figure it out.
We finished South from Alaska. That's a really great inspiring book.
I've been really enjoying reading Inspecting the Aging Sailboat.
Remind to tell you about the valuable lessons I've been learning about stress, anxiety, and mindset. I'm kinda sleepy now though.

The various integration technologies in Python make it easy to acquire data from any database. ODBC is our favorite because it turns the data into Python variables with the greatest speed and least lines of code; however, we have shown you how to get connected with a wide range of tools.
Once you fetch the data, manipulating it is easy in Python. Python objects can hold numbers, strings, and dates; and sets of data can be represented in native Python lists and tuples. This means the data is right there in front of you; there's no need to loop over the properties of Recordset objects or cursors.
In this chapter, we have shown how to build the beginnings of a powerful toolkit for transforming and manipulating data in Python. This makes it easy to switch between different representations of data, as rows, dictionaries of keys and values, or objects.
Python is particularly well suited to writing data-laundering scripts and to constructing dynamic object models on top of a database.

Alternating Least Squares matrix factorization.
ALS attempts to estimate the ratings matrix
R
as the product of two lower-rank matrices,X
andY
, i.e.X * Yt = R
. Typically these approximations are called 'factor' matrices. The general approach is iterative. During each iteration, one of the factor matrices is held constant, while the other is solved for using least squares. The newly-solved factor matrix is then held constant while solving for the other factor matrix.This is a blocked implementation of the ALS factorization algorithm that groups the two sets of factors (referred to as "users" and "products") into blocks and reduces communication by only sending one copy of each user vector to each product block on each iteration, and only for the product blocks that need that user's feature vector. This is achieved by precomputing some information about the ratings matrix to determine the "out-links" of each user (which blocks of products it will contribute to) and "in-link" information for each product (which of the feature vectors it receives from each user block it will depend on). This allows us to send only an array of feature vectors between each user block and product block, and have the product block find the users' ratings and update the products based on these messages.
For implicit preference data, the algorithm used is based on "Collaborative Filtering for Implicit Feedback Datasets", available at http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/ICDM.2008.22, adapted for the blocked approach used here.
Essentially instead of finding the low-rank approximations to the rating matrix
R
, this finds the approximations for a preference matrixP
where the elements ofP
are 1 if r > 0 and 0 if r = 0. The ratings then act as 'confidence' values related to strength of indicated user preferences rather than explicit ratings given to items.

AT FIRST SIGHT A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1999 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): **
A couple of massages and Amy Benic's life is changed forever.
Amy, played with a sweet, nervous energy by Mira Sorvino, is a hard driving young architect who works with her ex-husband (Steven Weber) at the firm they co-founded. As director Irwin Winkler's AT FIRST SIGHT begins, Amy checks into a spa for "a quick fix" of daily massages - but not too early in the morning. After a couple of those "deep tissue" babies delivered under the tender care of a handsome masseur named Virgil, she is head over heels in love with him.
The first scene of them together has her crying during her quasi-orgasmic massage. "Do you always make girls cry?" she weeps. "Always," he replies earnestly. The script is by a series of writers (Steve Levitt, Irwin Winkler and Rob Cowan) so one cannot be sure to whom to attribute which lines, but, since all the lines are consistently sappy, perhaps it doesn't matter.
Val Kilmer, who is only slightly better than in his atrocious performances in THE ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU and THE SAINT, plays Virgil for maximum schmaltz. Virgil's blind, but, as is de rigueur in such cinematic situations, Amy will not realize this for a while, and, when she does, she will be suitably embarrassed and apologize profusely.
The romance between the two of them advances rapidly. "She smells like cinnamon and nutmeg," is how Virgil describes Amy to his dog. He is overhead by his long-suffering sister (Kelly McGillis), who takes care of Virgil. She is apprehensive about any possible changes in Virgil's life.
The acting by the two leads has a certain symmetry. Amy displays genuine affection for Virgil and makes him the center of her life. Virgil agrees -- he loves himself and sees the world in terms of his needs. Sorvino is as honestly open and giving in her performance as Kilmer is self-absorbed.
Soon the two of them have moved from his place near the spa to her pad in New York after she convinces him to try a miracle cure to restore his sight. (The film is "inspired by a true story.") The doctor, played by Bruce Davison, does give Virgil his sight, which causes Virgil great consternation. Dr. Phil Webster, a vision therapist, played by comedian Nathan Lane, helps Virgil deal with the emotional trauma of his new sight. Dr. Webster takes Virgil to a cheap stripper bar where they can polish off a few beers while the good doctor asks him what he thinks about the naked visuals.
The movie, which is largely a series of missed opportunities, finds the ugliest part of one of the prettiest cities around, New York City, for Virgil to waste his newfound eyesight on.
It was probably inevitable that a movie with this title would have some "sight" gags, but do they have to have so many? When Virgil meets Amy after her massage, he says he doesn't recognize her with her clothes on. And when she changes clothes when he is still blind, he promises not to look. Ad nauseam.
The movie is cluttered with characters and subplots which add little other than time to the picture. A subplot concerning Virgil's evil father could be totally eliminated, as could the one of Amy's ex-husband.
 When Virgil runs out into a busy Manhattan street one evening and plays chicken with a speeding taxi just to observe the visual effects of rapidly approaching headlights, you know the movie has finally and completely lost it.
AT FIRST SIGHT runs too long at 2:08. It is rated PG-13 for sexual situations and a little profanity and would be fine for teenagers.

Every experiment in a paper is trying to answer a different part of the overarching research question. Let's figure out what the research question is and how it is being answered.
On a separate sheet of paper or in the margins of the article, write down the overall research question(s) that the paper is trying to answer.
Here are a few tips:
Each experiment in the paper is an attempt to answer part of the research question.
On a separate sheet of paper or in the margins of the article, write a “Since, If, Then” statement for each experiment. A “Since, If, Then” statement is a way of formulating the hypothesis. It helps you discover…
Here's how to do it:
Some descriptive studies might not have clearly testable “If” statements because they may be exploratory. In those cases the "If, Then" part of the hypothesis may be more like the following:
| SINCE | there is a correlation between Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) severity and Gastrointestinal (GI) problems, and since GI symptoms can be attributed to dysbiotic gut microbiota, |
|---|---|
| IF | Microbial Transfer Therapy (MTT) can effectively rebalance the microbiome and alleviate autism and GI symptoms, |
| THEN | there will be a change in the composition of the gut microbiome and there will be improvements in GI and ASD severity. |
| SINCE | alterations to the gut microbiome can correct dysbiosis and rebalance the community, |
|---|---|
| IF | MTT is effective in shifting the gut community in ASD children, |
| THEN | there will be similar compositions between post-MTT microbial communities and donor communities. |
| SINCE | the gut microbiome also includes viruses and SINCE the virome is dependent on the bacterial population, |
|---|---|
| IF | MTT alters the bacterial population and composition, |
| THEN | there will be a corresponding change in the virome composition after MTT treatment. |
| SINCE | antibiotic treatment leads to temporary improvements in ASD-related and GI symptoms/severity, |
|---|---|
| IF | MTT is effective in treating children with ASD and GI problems with lasting benefits, |
| THEN | there will be long-term improvements in GI symptoms and autism severity. |
| SINCE | birth mode has a significant effect on the nascent neonatal gut microbiota, |
|---|---|
| IF | we characterize the gut microbiota at different developmental time points, |
| THEN | they will have significantly different compositions. |
| SINCE | metabolites are excreted through urine, |
|---|---|
| IF | urine samples are taken as well as faecal samples, |
| THEN | there will be metabolites present that mirror the microbiota composition. |
| SINCE | Caesarian section infants lack the natural inoculum of bacteria obtained through the birth canal, |
|---|---|
| IF | urine samples are taken as well as faecal samples, |
| THEN | there will be metabolites present that mirror the microbiota composition. |
| SINCE | Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are known natural inhabitants of the healthy infant microbiota, |
|---|---|
| IF | we use culture-independent methods to isolate these two bacteria from each birth mode, |
| THEN | we will be able to test for their presence over time. |
Now you are ready to elucidate the hypothesis! When you finish, use this checklist to double-check your work:


You can either fill the SMILES (and their names) of the compounds or upload a (.xls, .csv, .txt) table file.
If both are input, it will first try to handle the uploaded files
The size of the file should be no more than 100K.

After 22 years of teaching, I have taught many courses and created many iterations of teaching materials. Some of this was “good” and some wasn’t. As the progeny of packrats, I saved a lot of these materials, even the garbage. Now, I have finally begun the process of culling this mess and this work-in-progress is the result.
My goal here is to transfer the stuff I feel is reasonable to an online text of sorts. But unlike most texts, this one will likely not be linear, nor perhaps coherent—at least across chapters. If it is useful to you; use whatever you want. If not, ignore it.

LINQ queries
see the mongodb c# driver linq documentation to see which LINQ operations are available. also see the c# driver expressions documentation to see all supported expressions.
Tip
don't forget to first import the mongodb linq extensions with using MongoDB.Driver.Linq;
Query collections
var author = await (from a in DB.Queryable<Author>()
where a.Name.Contains("Eckhart")
select a).FirstOrDefaultAsync();
Forward relationship access
every Many<T>
property gives you access to an IQueryable
of child entities.
var authors = from a in book.Authors.ChildrenQueryable()
select a;
this .ChildrenQueryable()
is an already filtered IQueryable
of child entities. For ex: the above .ChildrenQueryable()
is limited to only the Authors of that particular Book
entity. It does not give you access to all of the Author
entities in the Authors collection.
Reverse relationship access
for example, if you'd like to get all the books belonging to a genre, you can do it with the help of .ParentsQueryable()
like so:
var books = book.Genres
.ParentsQueryable<Book>("GenreID");
you can also pass in an IQueryable
of genres and get an IQueryable
of books like shown below:
var query = genre.Queryable()
.Where(g => g.Name.Contains("Music"));
var books = book.Genres
.ParentsQueryable<Book>(query);
it is basically a convenience method instead of having to do a manual join like the one shown below in order to access parents of one-to-many or many-to-many relationships.
Relationship joins
Many<T>.JoinQueryable()
gives you access to all the join records of that particular entity relationship. A join record has two properties ParentID
and ChildID
that you can use to gain access to parent Entities like so:
//LINQ syntax
var allBooksOfAnAuthor = await (
from j in book.Authors.JoinQueryable()
where j.ChildID == "AuthorID"
join b in DB.Collection<Book>() on j.ParentID equals b.ID
select b
).ToListAsync();
//Lambda syntax
var allBooksOfAnAuthor = await book.Authors
.JoinQueryable()
.Where(j => j.ChildID == "AuthorID")
.Join(
DB.Collection<Book>(), //foreign collection
j => j.ParentID, //local ID
b => b.ID, //foreign ID
(j, b) => b) //result selector expression
.ToListAsync();
in cases where you don't have access to an instance of the parent entity and only have the ID
of the parent, you can access the join records like so:
DB.Entity<Book>("Book ID").Authors.JoinQueryable()
and when you need to access all of the join records for a given entity relationship, you can access the join records like so:
DB.Entity<Book>().Authors.JoinQueryable()
Counting children
you can get how many entities are there in the opposite side of any relationship as shown below:
var authorCount = await book.Authors.ChildrenCountAsync();
var bookCount = await author.Books.ChildrenCountAsync();

So I got a new laptop on the weekend and had to reset all my passwords. Two days later.. still resetting passwords. I need you, @fast
Holly Cardew@hollyccc
Finally took @fast checkout for a spin. After initial sign up, processed checkout in less than. 1 second. Implications for this tech is exponential. Excited to see what @domm and @abarrallen are building with this tech.
Hum@humrashid
Now that I can see the future with @Fast, I am 10X more frustrated with the status quo. The good thing is it seems like @domm and @abarrallen and their team work incredibly FAST, so that future will probably be here sooner than I think.

To thrive, sellers must take debt collection in stride.
If the ultimate objective of sales is to generate income, then debt collection is in itself a salesman. A reader friend of mine told me of an interesting experience he had a few years back. When he joined this firm that sold tires, they were at a deficit position of a whopping 420 million shillings. As Sales General Manager, he gave an unusual instruction to the sales team: “forget new business; collect”. That was the brief. Go ye forth and collect. And collect they did; so successfully that by the end of that year, they were in a credit position of 20 million shillings.
Regrettably, many salespeople dread to collect. They see it as the fly in the relationship ointment. For instance, if I’m selling organic pest solutions to flower farms, I’ll be happy to do the demo which lasts a season (three months), and also excitedly see to it that the buyer gets his goods delivered; but because I don’t want to ‘spoil’ the cozy relationship I’ve built with this buyer, I want someone else (read Finance) to ask for the money. Sometimes finance does, but bereft of a brief about the relationship dynamics involved, friction is generated and the relationship marred. Usually though, finance doesn’t, and instead follows policy and suspends or closes the account when the next supply is requested and the past one hadn’t been paid for or the cheque bounced. Unbelievably, the seller, drunk in the aroma of the utopic relationship, gets offended arguing, “But we will lose the customer.”
Basic selling reminds us that the sale is complete when payment has occurred. Progressive sellers know that even when the structure allows (as it does in business-to-business selling) for someone else to collect, this only transfers responsibility- not accountability- for the sale. And why? Because, the same basics tell us that growth is most optimally achieved through existing customers themselves and those they refer. Having a pulse on the relationship, irrespective of who is handling the account at the time, therefore becomes a necessity for the seller.
In addition, it is only human to want to pay later (or never) so long as a loophole exists. Its why 'pay yourself first' is a cardinal rule to financial success. How successful would the government be if they allowed us to pay our taxes when we wanted to? Sellers dreading to upset the apple cart by collecting payments overdue, only serve to create that loophole that buyers exploit leading to such deficits to the tune of Ksh. 420m. He does this by building relationships (selling) inside just as he does outside.
This aside, an overdue debt still works against that sale because a debtor is less likely to order from you if he has your debt. 'Let me pay it first', he will say. In the meantime, he will most likely be getting his supply on credit or cash elsewhere. After all, his business won’t stall because he has your debt. Yet, you are letting yours stall because of the same reason. Movement of money in and out of a firm is the lifeblood of a business and critical to success; this is also true for you- the individual. Your very tools of trade (salaries included) depend on this. On the other hand, if he has paid up, he is very likely to exploit the opportunity and state, “Hebu, supply me with tyres, now that I don’t have your debt!”

{{ page.heading }}
Most people should buy an Individual ticket. If your company is paying, they should use the Corporate rate (or the Concierge rate for more flexibility; see below). For those who can't afford the Individual ticket, a discounted ticket is available; see below. And for those who want to go above and beyond and support our mission, check out the Patron ticket.
{% comment %} Buy Tickets Now {% endcomment %}| Type | Early Bird | Full Price | Who? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Individual | $495 | $595 | People paying their own way Companies with 5 or fewer employees |
| Corporate | $695 | $795 | Companies with more than 5 employees (including state agencies and nonprofits, if able) |
| Patron | — | $995 | Attendees who wish to support our mission a little extra Will be invited to a thank-you event |
| Corporate Concierge Service | — | $995 | Companies who need to buy several tickets now, and register specific people later Companies who cannot pay with credit card Price is per ticket |
| Discounted | — | $295 | Students, those on a lower income, or otherwise those for whom paying the full individual rate presents a financial hardship |
| Tutorials | — | $195 | Per tutorial |
| Sprints | — | Free | Please register so we can feed you |
Individual: Companies with 5 or fewer employees, or those purchasing their own ticket without any help from their employer.
Corporate: Companies with more than 5 employees. State or government institutions and non-profit organizations should use the corporate rate if they are able.
Patron: Every year, particularly generous attendees ask how they can pay extra for their ticket to help us expand our mission. The extra cost of this ticket will be put toward conference expenses that increase access to the conference, such as the Opportunity Grant Fund and video captioning. Ticket holders of this type will also be invited to a special "thank you" event at the conference.
Corporate Concierge Service: Companies who want to purchase several tickets in advance, but decide who will be attending the conference at a later date, or companies who cannot pay by credit card. We'll send you a registration code your employees can use to register when you're ready. We will also send you a paper invoice for record-keeping if you need.
Discounted: If you’re unemployed, on a lower income, or would benefit from a lower-priced ticket for another reason. If your company is paying for your ticket, you are not eligible for this ticket type.
Tutorials: They are a separate cost from your conference ticket. You can register for a tutorial without registering for the conference itself.
Sprints: The ticket is free, but we ask you to register so we can buy you lunch. You do not have to register for the conference itself to register for sprints.
We would hate for you to miss the conference! But we know things come up, so here's our refund policy:
For all dates the cutoff is on or before 5:00 PM PDT per the time stamp on DEFNA’s servers.
DjangoCon US sold out last year, so buy your ticket soon!
We hope to see you in San Diego!

Code Merging Workflow
Contributor Instructions
Perform the following instructions to create a feature branch off of develop, commit your changes, push your branch, and create a pull request. Before the pull request is accepted a Jenkins build must pass and an OpenMPF project administrator must review the changes. We do not have a public Jenkins server so a project administrator will have to start the build for you.
- Create a feature branch off of the latest version of develop
cd /path/to/repo
git checkout develop
git pull
git checkout -b <my-new-feature>
- Make Commits
git add .
git commit
- Push your feature branch.
git push -u origin <my-new-feature>
- Create a pull request.
- Go to GitHub page for repo.
- Click "New pull request"
- Change the dropdown that says "base: master" to develop
- Change the dropdown that says "compare: master" to your feature branch
- If a message saying "Can’t automatically merge." appears to the right of the dropdowns, pull the latest version of develop, merge your feature branch with develop, and push it again:
git checkout develop
git pull
git checkout <my-new-feature>
git merge develop
# Fix conflicts
git add .
git commit
git push
- Click on the gear next to "Reviewers" and select a reviewer
- Click "Create pull request"
- Get approval
- After creating the pull request you will see that the pull request says "Review required" and "Some checks haven't completed yet."
- An OpenMPF project administrator will start a Jenkins build. Once the build completes, Jenkins will post a status check to the pull request.
- If the Jenkins build passes, the pull request page will say "All checks have passed"
- If the Jenkins build fails, a project administrator will provide further guidance.
- An OpenMPF project administrator will review the pull request.
- If the reviewer approves the changes, the reviewer will merge the change in to develop and close the pull request.
- If the reviewer requests changes, you will need to make changes to your feature branch and push them. After you push your changes, the Jenkins status check will be reset. A project administrator will run another Jenkins build that will contain your most recent changes.
In order to be accepted and merged, pull requests need to comply with the Contribution Guidelines. In cases where an issue is found, please refer to the reviewer's comments for more information on how to update your code. This review and acceptance process applies to all of the OpenMPF repositories, including the OpenMPF core and all of the OpenMPF components.
Large pull requests should be split up into smaller pull requests where possible. This will make it easier to review the code. In general, each pull request should add new functionality, update an existing feature, or fix a bug. We strive to keep the develop branch stable. If merging a smaller pull request will break the system before additional pull requests can be merged, then it's generally a better idea to merge one larger pull request.
Note that GitHub has a 100 MB file size limitation. There is currently no way to push files to any of the OpenMPF repositories that are larger than this size.
Reviewer Instructions
- Go to the GitHub page for the pull request
- Click on the "Files changed"
- Review the code before you start a Jenkins build. You don't need to post your review comments immediately, but the Jenkins machine is on an internal network so for security you must review the code before you start the Jenkins build.
- After you have looked at the code, start an instance of the openmpf-github-with-pull-request Jenkins build.
- If the Jenkins build fails, you will need to work with the developer to get the tests to pass.
- Checkout their branch locally to test it
git fetch
git checkout <new-feature>
- On the pull request page click "Add your review"
- Add comments
- Click the green "Review changes" dropdown
- If changes are necessary, click the radio button to "Request changes"
- After the developer makes the necessary changes, go back to the pull request page
- Review the changes
- Start another instance of the openmpf-github-with-pull-request Jenkins build.
- If you are satisfied with the changes, click the "Review changes" dropdown
- Select the "Approve" radio button, and click "Submit review"
- Click "Squash and merge" on the pull request page
- If you don't see a "Squash and merge" button, find the button that says "Merge pull request", click the upside down triangle on the right side of the button, select "Squash and merge"
- A text box showing the commit message will appear above the "Squash and merge button". Edit message if necessary.
- Click "Confirm squash and merge"
- A message will pop up saying "Pull request successfully merged and closed. You’re all set—the
branch can be safely deleted." - Click "Delete branch"
- Update the openmpf-projects' develop branch with the new changes:

Hotfix Workflow
When an OpenMPF project administrator determines that a code change is urgently needed to fix a bug in previously released code, the pull request workflow is modified in the following ways.
- Create your feature branch off of the master branch, not develop. The convention is to include the prefix "hotfix/" in the name of the branch.
- When creating your pull request on the web page for the repo you are modifying, leave the 'base:master' dropdown menu as is, and change the 'compare:' dropdown to the name of your hotfix branch.
- After the PR has been reviewed and accepted, land the PR as described above.
- Next, create a new branch off of the develop branch. The convention is to use the prefix "hf-merge/" in the name of the branch.
- Merge the master branch into your hf-merge branch.
git checkout master
git pull
git checkout develop
git pull
git checkout -b hf-merge/<branch-name>
git merge master
git push -u
- Create a pull request for this branch as described above in the Contributor Instructions, using develop as the 'base:' branch, and your hf-merge branch as the 'compare:' branch.
- The remainder of the process for reviewing and landing a PR to the develop branch must be followed at this point, with one exception. You should merge your branch to the develop branch on the command line, instead of through the GitHub UI, to preserve commits and not squash them into one.
git checkout develop
git pull
git merge hf-merge/<branch-name>
Make sure that the merge is a fast-forward merge.
git push
Versioning a New Release
The decision to version a new release is based on the following factors:
- Changes have been made to the API which break backwards compatibility. Refer to the Semantic Versioning Guide.
- The system has been updated with major features and/or enhancements.
- The system has been updated to work with new versions of critical system dependencies, such as OpenCV and Spring.
- The packaging and/or deployment process has changed significantly.
- It's been a long time since the last release and many small updates have been made to the system.
When the OpenMPF team agrees that it's time to version a new release of the system, a project administrator will create a release branch in each repository off of the develop branch. The name of a release branch takes the form r<major>.<minor>.<bugfix>
. For example, r0.10.0
. Also, the first commit in the release branch will be tagged as release candidate 1. For example, r0.10.0-rc1
. Beta testers will then have the opportunity to test the release candidate 1 code.
If a bug is found in the release candidate code, then developers should land the bug fix to the release branch via a pull request. Once it has landed, the most recent commit will be tagged as release candidate 2. For example, r0.10.0-rc2
. Beta testers will then have the opportunity to test the release candidate 2 code. The release candidate number will increase by one each time bugs are fixed. The bug fix code should be merged into the develop branch after it lands to the release branch.
If no bugs are found in the release candidate code for a period of time (generally, a month) then the release candidate will be finalized. The release candidate branch for each repo will be merged into the master branch for that repo. That commit on the master branch will be tagged with the release number. For example, r0.10.0
.
If a critical bug fix needs to be made to the master branch, this is known has a "hot fix". Developers should land a hot fix to the master branch via a pull request. Once the code lands, the commit will be tagged by incrementing the <bugfix>
number. For example, r0.10.1
. The bug fix code should be merged into the develop branch after it lands to the master branch.
Note that you should not use the --no-ff
option when merging one branch into another. Doing so will make the commit history more verbose and difficult to follow.
This process is based on GitFlow.
Adding New Components
In general, a new component will initially go in the openmpf-contrib-components repository. That is a holding ground until it can be transitioned to the openmpf-components repository. To be a candidate for transition, it must meet the following criteria:
- Is strongly in line with the spirit of the project and there is a commitment to maintain and update the code as the project evolves
- Fully licensed under Apache 2.0 or a compatible license. All source code must be provided
- Comes with sufficient unit, system, and/or integration tests with a strong focus on regression testing
Note that new components should have a README.md file, LICENSE file, COPYING file, and optionally a NOTICE file. The LICENSE file should contain information about all of the licenses in the code base, including those licenses for code you didn't write.
Coding Style
The following list of style guides provide a comprehensive explanation of some of the best coding practices for the programming languages used in the OpenMPF project:
- Google C++ Style Guide
- Google Python Style Guide
- Google Java Style Guide
- Google JavaScript Style Guide
Generally speaking, when writing new code, please refer to existing code in the repositories and match the style. Most style issues boil down to inconsistency. Not all of our code adheres to these style guidelines, but we are striving to improve it.
Updating Online Documentation
Our openmpf.github.io repo
repo is forked from Beautiful Jekyll.
In general, everything within openmpf.github.io/docs
is part of a
Read the Docs subsite within our overall Beautiful Jekyll site.
To build the site Docker must be
installed. After making your changes run ./build-site.sh
from within the
top-level openmpf.github.io
directory. To view your changes locally, you can
run ./build-site.sh serve
and then browse to http://localhost:4000.
Committing Changes
When your changes look good, make sure to run the ./build-site.sh
command
explained above to generate the HTML site content. Commit all of the generated
files and generate a pull request to merge them into the develop branch.
Note that _site
is in .gitignore
and should not be committed.
When a commit is made to the master branch on GitHub, the https://openmpf.github.io/docs/site/ page will automatically update (often within 5 minutes).

Regístrese hoy para nuestra clase. Los estudiantes deben traer identificación con foto (Licencia de Manejar) y los papeles de la corte (si applicable).
The State of Texas allows everyone to take a defensive driving course a least once every 12 months in order to get a ticket dismissed. You may be eligible to take a defensive driving course more than once a year through a program called deferred adjudication, but you must get approval from the court first.
Yes. Texas Friendly Defensive Driving School is approved by the Texas Education Agency and all our instructors are licensed by TEA.
The cost of each class varies by location and venue, payable by cash, check, money order or pay online with a credit card. Some classes include the meal and others, the meal is purchased separately.
State law mandates that all defensive driving courses be at least six hours in length in order to get a ticket dismissed. You will be signing a statement on your certificate of completion stating that you have completed the entire six hour course.
It would be wise to arrive 15 minutes before the start of the class to complete paperwork. Please note that if you arrive past the start of the class, you may not be allowed to stay. It is a state law that everyone be in class for the full six hours.
Yes. The test has 20 questions which are all multiple choice. The minimum score is 70 to pass. If you should fail the test, your instructor will work with you after the class is dismissed to assist you in achieving a passing score.
No. Various videos are shown dealing with the different topics of discussion and we encourage student participation including questions and comments.
No. State law mandates that the certificate of completion must be mailed to you. You should receive your certificate within 10 days of the class, in many cases, sooner.
For a fee of $30 payable in cash, check or money order only (we do not take credit cards for this service), your certificate can be expedited via Federal Express. Certificates will be delivered within two business days of the class. Note: Federal Express does not deliver on weekends or holidays.
Yes, but it does depend on your insurance carrier. All insurance companies regulated by the Texas Insurance Agency are required by law to offer up to a 10% discount on your auto insurance for three years. Be sure to check with your insurance agent to see if discounts apply before taking the course.
No problem, but you would need to repeat the course.
A great deal. Live classes allow for interaction between instructors and students to share ideas and thoughts, ask questions and develop a better connection with the material plus a great meal. On the other hand, who wants to stare at a computer for six hours? The length of the class is the same; however, we do offer options on our website.
Yes. There are two 15-minute breaks and one 30-minute break for the meal.
Payment for the class (unless you paid online with a credit card), your court information, driver license and perhaps a sweater as some classrooms are cooler than others.
All locations except Austin Pizza Garden are accessible.

Twin Delayed DDPG¶
Table of Contents
Background¶
(Previously: Background for DDPG)
While DDPG can achieve great performance sometimes, it is frequently brittle with respect to hyperparameters and other kinds of tuning. A common failure mode for DDPG is that the learned Q-function begins to dramatically overestimate Q-values, which then leads to the policy breaking, because it exploits the errors in the Q-function. Twin Delayed DDPG (TD3) is an algorithm which addresses this issue by introducing three critical tricks:
Trick One: Clipped Double-Q Learning. TD3 learns two Q-functions instead of one (hence “twin”), and uses the smaller of the two Q-values to form the targets in the Bellman error loss functions.
Trick Two: “Delayed” Policy Updates. TD3 updates the policy (and target networks) less frequently than the Q-function. The paper recommends one policy update for every two Q-function updates.
Trick Three: Target Policy Smoothing. TD3 adds noise to the target action, to make it harder for the policy to exploit Q-function errors by smoothing out Q along changes in action.
Together, these three tricks result in substantially improved performance over baseline DDPG.
Quick Facts¶
- TD3 is an off-policy algorithm.
- TD3 can only be used for environments with continuous action spaces.
- The Spinning Up implementation of TD3 does not support parallelization.
Key Equations¶
TD3 concurrently learns two Q-functions, and , by mean square Bellman error minimization, in almost the same way that DDPG learns its single Q-function. To show exactly how TD3 does this and how it differs from normal DDPG, we’ll work from the innermost part of the loss function outwards.
First: target policy smoothing. Actions used to form the Q-learning target are based on the target policy, , but with clipped noise added on each dimension of the action. After adding the clipped noise, the target action is then clipped to lie in the valid action range (all valid actions, , satisfy ). The target actions are thus:
Target policy smoothing essentially serves as a regularizer for the algorithm. It addresses a particular failure mode that can happen in DDPG: if the Q-function approximator develops an incorrect sharp peak for some actions, the policy will quickly exploit that peak and then have brittle or incorrect behavior. This can be averted by smoothing out the Q-function over similar actions, which target policy smoothing is designed to do.
Next: clipped double-Q learning. Both Q-functions use a single target, calculated using whichever of the two Q-functions gives a smaller target value:
and then both are learned by regressing to this target:
Using the smaller Q-value for the target, and regressing towards that, helps fend off overestimation in the Q-function.
Lastly: the policy is learned just by maximizing :
which is pretty much unchanged from DDPG. However, in TD3, the policy is updated less frequently than the Q-functions are. This helps damp the volatility that normally arises in DDPG because of how a policy update changes the target.
Exploration vs. Exploitation¶
TD3 trains a deterministic policy in an off-policy way. Because the policy is deterministic, if the agent were to explore on-policy, in the beginning it would probably not try a wide enough variety of actions to find useful learning signals. To make TD3 policies explore better, we add noise to their actions at training time, typically uncorrelated mean-zero Gaussian noise. To facilitate getting higher-quality training data, you may reduce the scale of the noise over the course of training. (We do not do this in our implementation, and keep noise scale fixed throughout.)
At test time, to see how well the policy exploits what it has learned, we do not add noise to the actions.
You Should Know
Our TD3 implementation uses a trick to improve exploration at the start of training. For a fixed number of steps at the beginning (set with the start_steps
keyword argument), the agent takes actions which are sampled from a uniform random distribution over valid actions. After that, it returns to normal TD3 exploration.

Exclusive – Rep. Mark Walker Organizing Effort to Send Adam Schiff Coal
Rep. Mark Walker (R-NC), vice chairman of the House Republican Conference, is organizing an effort to allow the American public to send Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) lumps of coal for Christmas.
by Kristina WongA not-yet-announced website reads, “Adam Schiff is on the naughty list this year for leading a sham impeachment!”
People can send Schiff a lump of coal by donating to Walker’s re-election campaign. Donation amounts can be as little as $10, though a $30 donation gets them a T-shirt with Schiff emblazoned on the front as the Grinch. “You’re a mean one Mr. Schiff,” the green T-shirts say.
The lumps of coal will be sourced from a North Carolina company and be sent in the donor’s name.
Schiff, as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, is leading the impeachment inquiry on behalf of House Democrats.
Republicans have blasted Schiff for orchestrating an unfair impeachment inquiry process.
Schiff began the inquiry with closed-door depositions of witnesses, which allowed for leaks to media but did not allow for Republicans to discuss them.
The impeachment inquiry rules also allowed for Schiff to veto hearing witnesses requested by Republicans, or for Democrats to vote them down.
Republicans have requested that Schiff himself testify for the impeachment inquiry, since Schiff has refused Republican requests to subpoena the whistleblower and his staff are the only ones in Congress who know who the whistleblower is, and have had interactions with him before he filed a whistleblower complaint.
So far, not one Republican has come out in favor of impeachment of President Trump, and recent polls show that it has lost public support since the hearings began.
