Beginning with version 3.7-7, everything you need is included with the Unix sources regardless of how you obtained them - either as a tarball or by repository checkout. (This was done to eliminate frequent problems encountered by people combining the repository Unix and Cross sources with a set of incompatible generated sources.)
If you extract a tarball then you will have a top-level directory
named Squeak-X.Y-Z (for some values of X, Y, and Z). If you
are checking out from a repository, you can call the direcory anything
you like; for example:
$ svn co http://squeak.hpl.hp.com/svn/squeak/trunk squeak
will leave you with a directory called squeak. (We'll assume from now on that the directory is called squeak.)
Next change to the 'unix' directory within the sources that you just
checked out (or extracted from the tarball):
$ cd squeak/platforms/unix
Build the VM and plugins by running make:
$ make
Then install the VM, plugins and manual pages by running
make again (with superuser privileges):
$ sudo make install
To delete the temporary files created during the build
process, run make one last time:
$ make clean
That's all there is to it.

Chicago is the greatest city in the whole wide world. It has amazing architecture that creates a beautiful sky line and an amazing beach-front. There is always so much to do in the city from driving down Lake Shore Drive, to going on a ride on the Navy Pier Farris wheel.
It also boasts the best pizza, hot dogs and Italian beef sandwiches.
There are so many awesome restaurants in Chicago, many you will never try!
Here are some great choices for food in the surrounding area of Downtown Chicago.
| Restaurants | Location | Approximate Cost |
|---|---|---|
| Chicago Pizza & Oven grinder | Lincoln Park | 40 Dollars |
| Jake Melnicks | River North | 60 Dollars |
| Wildfire | River North | 120 Dollars |

I ran into a bunch of websites that are the same core concept of mine. After inspecting the source of Citypass.com I did start to recognize the HTML in it.This site blows mine out of the water. I do not have any css on mine which makes it look plain and have no UI added to it. I also see that the website is way more organized with using div I feel this is because of the CSS they use and will definitely start keeping that in mind as I go forward.

There may be no law that is based upon any religious belief or seeks to impose any restriction upon any race, gender, or sexual orientation. Some people will object. But we must understand that we have to protect even people we disagree with in order to protect ourselves. There can be no exception to basic rights. Arnaud Amalric, prior to the massacre at Béziers, was reported to have said: “Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius,” which is a direct translation of the Latin phrase “Kill them. For the Lord knows those that are His own.” It is not our station to sit in judgment over others pretending to know what God wants. That is his role, not ours. Laws should never be allowed to be written for the purpose of forcing the belief of one group upon another as we have today with the left v right.


Applying policies
Edit (pull request)Yorc provides natively the following policies:
- Monitoring policies (HTTP/TCP).
- Affinity/Anti-Affinity OpenStack ServerGroup placement policies.
- Weight-balanced and bin-packing Hosts Pool placement policies.
Let’s see how we can apply these on apps:
- Server Group Anti-affinity placement policy on OpenStack
- TCP monitoring policy
- HTTP monitoring policy
- Weight-balanced and bin-packing Hosts pool placement policies
Applying a Server Group Anti affinity placement policy on OpenStack
Let’s imagine the use case of a resilient application on OpenStack:
This application is scalable but to enhance HA, you want each app instance located in a different physical machine. So, if a breakdown occurs on one specific host, it doesn’t touch all app instances but only one.
This can be done by applying yorc.openstack.policies.ServerGroupAntiAffinity on OpenStack.
Let’s do it !
Configure location policies
After configuring your OpenStack location as described previously click on the button, select Catalog and use the search to find the ServerGroupAntiAffinity as below.
Next, drag-and-drop the policy in the Policies resources list of your OpenStack location. Rename the resource, for example ServerGroupAntiAffinity. Set the level property to host as it’s a policy placement of host type by opposition to zone or region placement.
You can set the strict property to false (by default, this is set to true) if you accept that your deployment will be successful even if some instances are co-located. Take care this is only possible if your OpenStack environment support Compute service API 2.15 or above.

Edit application topology
You can apply a Server Group anti-affinity placement policy to your application topology by using an abstract policy ; this allows to deploy your application on OpenStack, as well as on GCP, if another specific placement policy is implemented for GCP too.
Select your application and go to the Topology Editor. Click on the button on the vertical blue bar on the right. Click on the + Add policies button, search the abstract policy node AntiAffinity (org.alien4cloud.policies.AntiAffinity) from alien-base-types and drag-and-drop it on the policies list of your topology.
Set the level property to host.
Then you can select the Targets of the placement policy, i.e in this case, the node name of the compute instances you want not to be located on the same host.
Valid targets for applying ServerGroupAntiAffinity are:
- One scalable compute node template (having tosca.nodes.Compute type) with at least two as max instances number.
- At least two different compute node templates, not necessarily scalable.
That’s it ! You just have to check the correct policy matching after choosing the Openstack location as the ServerGroupAntiAffinity derives from org.alien4cloud.policies.Affinity
Deploy the application and enjoy !
Applying TCP Monitoring policy
The TCP Monitoring policy can be used for monitoring Compute instances liveness.
To enable TCP monitoring, you need to configure the location by adding yorc.policies.monitoring.TCPMonitoring to the Policies resource list.
Moreover, in the application topology, the Compute nodes need to have yorc.policies.monitoring.TCPMonitoring policy set and configured.
Configure location policies
After configuring your OpenStack location as described previously click on the button, select Catalog and use the search to find the TCPMonitoring as below.
Next, drag-and-drop the policy in the Policies resources list of your location. Rename the resource, for example TCPMonitoring.
 Click on the button on the vertical blue bar on the right. Click on the + Add policies button, search the policy node TCPMonitoring (yorc.policies.monitoring.TCPMonitoring) and drag-and-drop it on the policies list of your topology.
Then you can select the Targets of the policy, i.e in this case, the node name of the compute instances you want not to be monitored, which is Compute.
Deploy your application and check in the runtime view the logs concerning the node Compute. You should find a message like this:
[2019-04-09 15:15:31] [] [Compute] Monitoring Check is back to normal for node (Compute-0)
In case the node goes down, you should find a message like this:
[2019-04-09 15:26:31] [] [Compute] Monitoring Check returned a failure for node (Compute-0)
In case the node comes back, you should find the message:
[2019-04-09 15:28:31] [] [Compute] Monitoring Check is back to normal for node (Compute-0)
Applying HTTP Monitoring policy on a web application
The HTTP Monitoring policy can be used by a web application in order to be informed when the web server is down.
To enable HTTP monitoring, you need to configure the location by adding yorc.policies.monitoring.HTTPMonitoring policy on any location.
Moreover, the application topology, the web server nodes need to have yorc.policies.monitoring.HTTPMonitoring policy set and configured.
Configure location policies
After configuring your OpenStack location as described previously, click on the button, select Catalog and use the search to find the HTTPMonitoring as below.
Next, drag-and-drop the policy in the Policies resources list of your location. Rename the resource, for example HTTPMonitoring.

Select your application and go to the Topology Editor.
Click on the button on the vertical blue bar on the right.
Click on the + Add policies button, search the policy node httpMonitoring (yorc.policies.monitoring.HTTPMonitoring) from yorc-types and drag-and-drop it on the policies list of your topology.
A valid target type for applying yorc.policies.monitoring.HTTPMonitoring is tosca.nodes.SoftwareComponent.
Next, you just need to add the Welcome node template as target of the policy and set the policy properties as below:
The scheme property allows to select http or https protocol.
The port property allows to set the port of your web application you want to monitor.
The path and http_headers properties allows to specify an URL path and HTTP headers to use for sending request to the web application.
The time_interval property let you define how often the application must be checked.
Once the application is deployed, you can simulate the Welcome web server failure by running the KillWebServer custom workflow and depending the time_interval you specified, you can rapidly (or not…) observe the Welcome node in Error State in the runtime view and the following log:
[2019-04-09 15:15:31] [] [Welcome] Monitoring Check returned a failure for node (Welcome-0)
Next, by running the startWebServer custom workflow, you restart the web server and can observe the Welcome node is backed to normal:
[2019-04-10 11:12:24] [] [Welcome] Monitoring Check is back to normal for node (Welcome-0)
The next step will be to fix this by a self-healing policy !
Applying Hosts Pool Placement Policies
On a Hosts Pool location, you can provide hosts as Computes and specify if a host is shareable and so can be used by different applications or different Computes of the same application.
Now, with placement policies applied on an application, you can define how to choose the good host candidate for your Compute.
Two policies are available:
- yorc.policies.hostspool.BinPackingPlacement
- yorc.policies.hostspool.WeightBalancedPlacement
BinPackingPlacement is the default policy if nothing is specified.
It means the host the more allocated will be elect preferentially, i.e a host that was already allocated to the greatest number of Computes.
On the contrary, the weight-balanced placement policy allows to choose preferentially the host the less allocated in order to balance allocations between all shareable hosts.
Configure location policies
After configuring your HostsPool location as described previously click on the button, select Catalog and use the search to find policies.hostspool as below.
Next, drag-and-drop the BinPackingPlacement and the WeightBalancedPlacement policies in the Policies resources list of your HostsPool location.

Edit application topology
You can apply a weight-balanced placement policy to your application topology by using an abstract policy: the tosca.policies.Placement.
This allows to deploy your application on Hosts pool, as well as on GCP, if another specific placement policy is implemented for GCP too.
Select your application and go to the Topology Editor. Click on the button on the vertical blue bar on the right. Click on the + Add policies button, search the abstract policy node Placement (tosca.policies.Placement) and drag-and-drop it on the policies list of your topology.
Then you can select the Targets of the placement policy, i.e in this case, the node name of the compute on which will be applied the placement policy.
Manage current deployment
Once you choose the hosts pool location for deploying your application, in case of multiple hostspool placement policies, you have to choose the one you want during the Policies Matching step.
That’s it ! you can deploy your application: the weight-balanced placement policy will be applied on the 2 instances of the Compute node.

honzi.cz/Writings/Fanlight
"Fanlight" = The combination of a noisy fan and a bright light that can be turned on in the central bathroom in Honzi's old house.
Option #1: "Fanlight" On:
- Pros:
- Nobody outside the bathroom will attempt to communicate with you.
- The smells of your pooping are sucked out of the bathroom.
- The sounds of your pooping cannot be heard outside the bathroom.
- Cons:
- Everybody outside the bathroom knows that there is somebody inside pooping, but you may still remain anonymous.
- You do not know what is going on outside the bathroom. You can feel vibrations through the walls, but you cannot be sure they are caused by footsteps.
- Your pooping is more illuminated.
Option #2: "Fanlight" Off:
- Pros:
- Outsiders have a lower chance of knowing that there is somebody inside pooping.
- You have a much higher chance of knowing what is going on outside the bathroom, as sounds and possible burglars are much more easily heard.
- You poop in the shade.
- Cons:
- Outsiders may attempt to communicate with you.
- The smells of your pooping will linger.
- The sounds of your pooping are more likely to be heard outside the bathroom, which may affect your anonymity.
Conclusion:
- If modesty and consideration of the bathroom experience of others are higher priority, keep the "fanlight" on.
- If stealth and awareness are higher priority, keep the "fanlight" off.

I am a sports journalist with a unique combination of reporting and mathematical skills. I have experience in data analysis, journalism and sports broadcasting. I graduated in June, 2019 from Northwestern University with a Bachelor of Science in Journalism, a second major in Mathematical Methods in the Social Sciences, and a Political Science minor. After graduation, I was the sports intern at FiveThirtyEight, wrote freelance sports stories for The Palm Beach Post, and now I am working full-time as the sports reporter and editor at the Rio Grande Sun in Española, New Mexico.
Favorite feature stories:
Favorite analytical pieces:
2022 Basketball State Tournament Preview and Team Capsules
Hoops 2022 -- “The Essential, Must-Have Guide to Northern New Mexico Basketball”
Interactive feature package example: The Game: Northwestern Football's Quest to Win the Big Ten
Good stories are everywhere, especially in sports. The reason I want to pursue sports journalism is to continue to find and tell great stories. These are a few of my favorite examples.
I'm always striving to find ways to combine my math and journalism backgrounds, and I think the best way to tell a story is often by using data. It is difficult to strike the careful balance in using numbers in ways that everyone can understand. Here are some examples of my numbers-based writing:
Highlight reel from the 2018 Northwoods League season
Full broadcast of Game 1 of the 2019 NCAA Softball Super Regionals

Newcastle City Choir to hold two Christmas concerts
Newcastle City Choir has been hard at work learning beautiful four-part arrangements of well-known carols as well as some less that usual Christmas music in preparation for the festive season.
In the spirit of Christmas giving, the choir is presenting a free mini concert at John Hunter Hospital by the piano next to the food service area on Wednesday, November 20 at 10.30am. The choir will also hold a fund-raising Christmas concert for Camp Quality at Mayfield Uniting Church on Sunday, December 15 at 2pm. Tickets are $15, available at the door. Afternoon tea is included.
"Camp Quality's services and programs make a real difference in the lives of children facing cancer and in the lives of their families. By joining us for this festive season concert you can help make that difference," the choir stated.
New members are welcome to join the choir which meets at Mayfield Uniting Church Hall on the first Wednesday of each month from 7pm.

H.B. Woodrose
I had the most intense experience imaginable. I was very ill for most of the experience. However, it seemed like a cleansing, a purging of all toxic beliefs, as well as of guilt and shame. In this experience I met with the mother. She told me the truth of myself and of her ownself. The essence of tantra and yoga were revealed.
I now understand the mystery of the trinity (I am trying to figure out how to put it all into words). It is in the meeting place of the inward and outward breath that bliss lies. My life will go on as it always has but I will never be the same. I found that joy and sorrow are the same. There is no need now to take a substance like this again. There can only be one awakening like I experienced. I know it wasn't the substance the caused this but my own desire. That desire is fulfilled. Now I must try find a way to live in balance between the opposites apparent in this life and try to give to others what I can of the gift that was given to me. This experience was both horribly frightening and intensely blissful.
I would recommend that anyone who uses a substance like this do it with respect and reverence and not as entertainment. I have done LSD, mushrooms, peyote, as well as other psychedelics with intense experiences with each. I also have practiced meditation for a awhile. None of this compares really, to revelatory nature of what I just experienced with baby woodrose seeds. However, as I said earlier, I will never do this kind thing again. It has no further value now for me.
Experience Reports are the writings and opinions of the individual authors who submit them.
Some of the activities described are dangerous and/or illegal and none are recommended by Erowid.

Whenever I review a NYX product, I am always amazed by the difference in the Indian & International prices. I always wish someone could get them from US for me, that way I can hoard as much as possible. Till date we always preferred shopping from cherryculture, beautyjoint for NYX products, but the delay and lost packages have taken out the charm from shopping at international sites.
But NYX has a new shopping address at b2nshop.com
About b2n: Blanc to Noir - b2nshop.com was built by SK2P Inc. in response to customers' desires to shop a destination dedicated to beauty and fashion accessories. Our site is built for these categories, and the passionate customers who shop them-- this is our focus. We are a unique store that offers our customers the ability to find what they want easily and we deliver it as quickly as possible-- reliably and securely. We take our shopping seriously--our staff is dedicated to providing the best possible experience, and our passion.
Shipping charges & Methods: They ship worldwide, including India. With 7-day return policy
Shipping rates are based on: - product weight - type of packaging - destination country - carrier shipping method
Brands under the belt:
NYX
SIGMA
My Shopping experience: I have to first start with their collection, they had every product and shade. I easily picked up what I wanted. The package was sent using USPS first class mail, which does not have a tracking number, but it reached me in exactly 11 days. Yup 11 days, thats quite surprising for an international package ?What I shopped:
What I liked:
Will totally recommend this to eveyone, looking up for NYX and Sigma stuff at international prices. I am definitely shopping with them for sure.
You can find them here b2nshop, Facebook,

Agricultural Bank of China
    After the failure of the postgraduate entrance examination, I began to participate in the spring recruitment of major companies, and finally chose the Agricultural Bank of China R & D Center as my first job.
    My office is located in Daoxiang Lake. The environment is good, the facilities are very comprehensive, and the atmosphere between my colleagues is very harmonious. I hope to learn more and become better here.
Shandong University
    I entered Shandong University in 2014, majored in software engineering. In 2015, I passed the major change exam and I became a CS student.
    I'm not hard-working so my GPA was terrible, but some courses are attractive to me. I think the future will be brighter if I try harder.
Laiwu No.1 Middle School
    I entered Laiwu No.1 Middle School in 2011, and the life of senior high was unforgetable. Friends were sincere and pure, and all the classmates were running towards the same goal.
    Some people might be hard to meet, but the memory was there wonderfully.

talks of “the aesthetic” as a concept, whether is contingent on others, or irreducible
All the definitions they give require the explanation of “aesthetic value” or “aesthetic jugment”. I focus on aesthetic value.
Difference between aesthetic and art (code poetry might be art, but it might not be aesthetic)
A work of art has a character and a content, including formal (balance and unity), aesthetic (gracefulness, garrishness), expressive (melancholy, cheerfulness), representational (a woman, a data structure), semantic (meaning, metaphor), and symbolic (death, life, disintegration)
An item’s aesthetic value is the capacity to elicit “reasonable” or “apt” pleasurable admiration (pleasure not just from its perception), taken from its higher-order properties or relation between elements (aesthetic value).
But we can exchange pleasure with imaginative realization, and as such we get closer to cognition.

Train a LSTM (Long Short Term Memory) model to generate text
Description
This example allows you to train a model to generate text in the style of some existing source text. The model is designed to predict the next character in a text given some preceding string of characters. Doing this repetedly builds up a text, charachter by character.
Status
Source Data
Model Loading/Creation
Model saved in IndexedDB: Load text data first.
Model Training
It can take a while to generate an effective model. Try increasing the number of epochs to improve the results, we have found that about 50-100 epochs are needed to start generating reasonable text.
Text Generation Parameters
To generate text the model needs to have some number of preceding characters from which it continues, we call these characters the seed text. You can type one in, or we will extract a random substring from the input text to be the seed text. Note that the seed text must be at least 40 charachters long.

Functions for allocating and sharing system memory with an FPGA accelerator.
To share memory between a software application and an FPGA accelerator, these functions set up system components (e.g. an IOMMU) to allow accelerator access to a provided memory region.
There are a number of restrictions on what memory can be shared, depending on platform capabilities. Usually, FPGA accelerators to not have access to virtual address mappings of the CPU, so they can only access physical addresses. To support this, the OPAE C library on Linux uses hugepages to allocate large, contiguous pages of physical memory that can be shared with an accelerator. It also supports sharing memory that has already been allocated by an application, as long as that memory satisfies the requirements of being physically contigous and page-aligned.
Definition in file buffer.h.

| uint64_t | len, | ||
| void ** | buf_addr, | ||
| uint64_t * | wsid, | ||
| int | flags | ||
| ) |
Prepare a shared memory buffer
Prepares a memory buffer for shared access between an accelerator and the calling process. This may either include allocation of physical memory, or preparation of already allocated memory for sharing. The latter case is indicated by supplying the FPGA_BUF_PREALLOCATED flag.
This function will ask the driver to pin the indicated memory (make it non-swappable), and program the IOMMU to allow access from the accelerator. If the buffer was not pre-allocated (flag FPGA_BUF_PREALLOCATED), the function will also allocate physical memory of the requested size and map the memory into the caller's process' virtual address space. It returns in 'wsid' an fpga_buffer object that can be used to program address registers in the accelerator for shared access to the memory.
When using FPGA_BUF_PREALLOCATED, the input len must be a non-zero multiple of the page size, else the function returns FPGA_INVALID_PARAM. When not using FPGA_BUF_PREALLOCATED, the input len is rounded up to the nearest multiple of page size.
| [in] | handle | Handle to previously opened accelerator resource |
| [in] | len | Length of the buffer to allocate/prepare in bytes |
| [in,out] | buf_addr | Virtual address of buffer. Contents may be NULL (OS will choose mapping) or non-NULL (OS will take contents as a hint for the virtual address). |
| [out] | wsid | Handle to the allocated/prepared buffer to be used with other functions |
| [in] | flags | Flags. FPGA_BUF_PREALLOCATED indicates that memory pointed at in '*buf_addr' is already allocated an mapped into virtual memory. FPGA_BUF_READ_ONLY pins pages with only read access from the FPGA. |

| fpga_result fpgaReleaseBuffer | ( | fpga_handle | handle, |
| uint64_t | wsid | ||
| ) |
Release a shared memory buffer
Releases a previously prepared shared buffer. If the buffer was allocated using fpgaPrepareBuffer (FPGA_BUF_PREALLOCATED was not specified), this call will deallocate/free that memory. Otherwise, it will only be returned to it's previous state (pinned/unpinned, cached/non-cached).

This function is used to acquire the physical base address (on some platforms called IO Virtual Address or IOVA) for a shared buffer identified by wsid.
| [in] | handle | Handle to previously opened accelerator resource |
| [in] | wsid | Buffer handle / workspace ID referring to the buffer for which the IO address is requested |

ChatBot
Introduction
A chatbot (also known as a talkbot, chatterbot, Bot, IM bot, interactive agent, or Artificial Conversational) is an intelligent piece of software that is capable of communicating and performing actions similar to a human. .Such programs are often designed to convincingly simulate how a human would behave as a conversational partner, thereby passing the Turing test. Chatbots are typically used in dialog systems for various practical purposes including customer service or information acquisition.
Chatbots are hot today. Who doesn't know about them? Chatbots are seen as the future way of interacting with your customers, employees and all other people out there you want to talk to. The essence is that this communication is a dialogue. Contrary to just publishing the information, people who use a chatbot can get to the information they desire more directly by asking questions.
What do Chatbots do?
Chatbots are relevant because of the following reasons:
They make available to people, the right information at the right time, right place and most importantly only when they want.
About 90% of our time on mobile is spent on email and messaging platforms. So it makes sense to engage customers using chatbots instead of diverting them to a website or a mobile app.
The advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and natural language processing, allowing bots to converse more and more, like real people.
With chatbots, firms can be available 24/7 to users and visitors. Now, the sales and customer service teams can focus on more complex tasks while the chatbot guides people down the funnel.
Modern chatbots do not rely solely on text, and will often show useful cards, images, links, and forms, providing an app-like experience.
Depending on way bots are programmed, we can categorize them into two variants of chatbots: Rule-Based (dumb bots) & Self Learning (smart bots).
Rule-Based Chatbots:
This variety of bots answer questions based on some simple rules that they are trained on.
Self-Learning Chatbots:
This variety of bots rely on Artificial Intelligence(AI) & Machine Learning(MI) technologies to converse with users.
Self-learning Chatbots are further divided into Retrieval based and Generative.
Retrieval based
Retrieval based bots work on the principle of directed flows or graphs.The bot is trained to rank the best response from a finite set of predefined responses. The responses here are entered manually, or based on a knowledge base of pre-existing information.
Eg. What are your store timings?
Answer: 9 to 5 pm
These systems can be extended to integrate with 3rd Party systems as well.
Eg. Where is my order?
Answer: It’s on its way and should reach you in 10 mins
Retrieval based bots are the most common types of chatbots that you see today. They allow bot developers and UX to control the experience and match it to the expectations of our customers. They work best for goal-oriented bots in customer support, lead generation and feedback. We can decide the tone of the bot, and design the experience, keeping in mind the customer’s brand and reputation.
Generative
Another method of building chatbots is using a generative model. These chatbots are not built with predefined responses. Instead, they are trained using a large number of previous conversations, based upon which responses to the user are generated. They require a very large amount of conversational data to train.
Generative models are good for conversational chatbots with whom the user is simply looking to exchange banter. These models will virtually always have a response ready for you. However, in many cases, the responses might be arbitrary and not make a lot of sense to you. The chatbot is also prone to generating answers with incorrect grammar and syntax.
Chatbot building
There are a few things you need to know before moving forward. Natural Language Processing(NLP) using NLTK, TF-IDF and Cosine similarity.
Natural Language Processing(NLP) using NLTK
Natural language processing (NLP) is the ability of a computer program to understand human language as it is spoken. NLP is a component of artificial intelligence (AI).
The development of NLP applications is challenging because computers traditionally require humans to “speak” to them in a programming language that is precise, unambiguous and highly structured, or through a limited number of clearly enunciated voice commands. Human speech, however, is not always precise — it is often ambiguous and the linguistic structure can depend on many complex variables, including slang, regional dialects, and social context.
Natural Language Toolkit(NLTK)
NLTK is a leading platform for building Python programs to work with human language data. It provides easy-to-use interfaces to over 50 corpora and lexical resources such as WordNet, along with a suite of text processing libraries for classification, tokenization, stemming, tagging, parsing, and semantic reasoning, wrappers for industrial-strength NLP libraries, and an active discussion forum.
TF-IDF
We will compute the Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) vectors for each document. This will give you a matrix where each column represents a word in the overview vocabulary (all the words that appear in at least one document).
TF-IDF is the statistical method of evaluating the significance of a word in a given document.
TF — Term frequency(tf) refers to how many times a given term appears in a document.
IDF — Inverse document frequency(idf) measures the weight of the word in the document, i.e if the word is common or rare in the entire document.
The TF-IDF intuition follows that the terms that appear frequently in a document are less important than terms that rarely appear.
Cosine similarity
Fortunately, scikit-learn gives you a built-in TfIdfVectorizer class that produces the TF-IDF matrix quite easily.
Now we have this matrix, we can easily compute a similarity score. There are several options to do this; such as the Euclidean, the Pearson, and the cosine similarity scores. Again, there is no right answer to which score is the best.
We will be using the cosine similarity to calculate a numeric quantity that denotes the similarity between the two words. You use the cosine similarity score since it is independent of magnitude and is relatively easy and fast to calculate (especially when used in conjunction with TF-IDF scores). Mathematically, it is defined as follows:
Since we have used the TF-IDF vectorizer, calculating the dot product will directly give us the cosine similarity score. Therefore, we will use sklearn's linear_kernel() instead of cosine_similarities() since it is faster.
Let's start coding…
So we’ll copy data from this website or download by clicking
Source Code
Copy and paste the whole data in a text format. We’ll train our model based on this data and then check how well the model performs. Apart from this, I have also included Wikipedia python library so you can ask anything.
bot.py
Screenshots of conversation with Chatterbot:
That was pretty cool, isn't it? Though the results were not precise at least we reached a milestone :)
Conclusion: The future of chatbots
The future of Chatbots is very bright. With so much advancement in the Artificial Intelligence sector, chatbots are the future with zero doubt. The current chatbot that we just built is obviously not the future I am talking about as this is just a stepping stone in chatbot building.
The future chatbot will not be just a Customer Support agent, it will be an advance assistant for both the business and consumer.
We as humans are not fond of doing repetitive boring tasks. So in the future companies will hire AI Chatbot for the tasks which are repetitive and don’t require creativity. With AI Chatbot taking over repetitive boring tasks, Companies will utilize their human resources for more creative tasks. With this, we can expect more amazing things coming up to us in the future.
Also, Human doesn’t like storing up contents (mugging up) in their mind. And today with the Internet they can leverage that part. So tasks that require storing the information (data) can be transferred to AI Chatbot.
Well, that's all for this article hope you guys have enjoyed reading this it, feel free to share your comments/thoughts/feedback in the comment section.

***************************************************************************
In this paper review, we will dive into *[Li et. al.'s: Visualizing the Loss Landscape of Neural Nets](https://arxiv.org/abs/1712.09913)*
We'll look at a CNN loss landscape and its importance on training a neural network.
The authors explored the structure of NN loss functions, and the effect of loss landscapes on generalization. They show a ***"filter normalization"*** method to visualize loss function curvature and made comparisons between loss functions.
Code and plots available at: [https://github.com/tomgoldstein/loss-landscape](https://github.com/tomgoldstein/loss-landscape)
- - -
Visualizations help us to answer important questions about why NNs work. Some of these questions include:
- why are we able to minimize highly non-convex neural loss functions?
- why do the resulting minima generalize?
- how the non-convex structure of neural loss functions relates to their trainability, and,
- how the geometry of neural minimizers (i.e., their sharpness/flatness, and their surrounding landscape), affects their generalization properties.
Basics of Loss Visualisation
====
We already know that NNs are trained on a set of feature vectors(e.g. vision, text, tabular, etc.) and corresponding labels while trying to minimize a loss function of the form $L(\theta) = \frac{1}{m} \sum\limits_{i=1}^m l(x_i,y_i;\theta)$, where $\theta$ denotes the parameters or weights of the NN, the function $l(xi, yi; \theta)$ measures how well the NN with parameters $\theta$ predicts the correct label, and $m$ is the number of training samples. Due to size of the weights and high-dimensionality, it is difficult to visualise them. Existing methods include:
- **1-Dimensional Linear Interpolation**:
+ How To Plot:
* choose two sets of parameters $\theta$ and ${\theta}'$; plot the values of the loss function along the line connecting these two points; parameterize this line by choosing a scalar parameter $\alpha$; and defining the weighted average $\theta(\alpha) = (1-\alpha)\theta + \alpha{\theta}'$. Finally, we plot the function $f(\alpha) = L(\theta(\alpha))$.
+ Weakness:
* Non-convexities in the data are difficult to visualize using 1D plots
* Batch normalization or invariance symmetries are not considered by this method.
- **Contour Plots And Random Directions**:
+ Hot to Plot:
* Choose a center point ${\theta}^\ast$ in the graph, and choose two direction vectors, $\delta$ and $\eta$. Plot a function of the form of eqn. [linear2] and eqn. [linear3]:
+ Weakness:
* Result in low-resolution plots of small regions that have not captured the complex non-convexity of loss surfaces.
\begin{equation}
\label{linear2}
f(\alpha) = L({\theta}^\ast + \alpha\delta), for\ 1D\ case
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\label{linear3}
f(\alpha, \beta) = L({\theta}^\ast + \alpha\delta + \beta\eta), for\ 2D\ case
\end{equation}
Filter-wise Normalization:
====
Scale invariance in network weights prevents random directions to capture the geometry of loss surfaces and cannot be used to compare the geometry of two different minimizers or networks. To remove this effect, loss functions can be plotted using ***filter-wise normalized directions***.
![Figure [fig:7]: Loss surfaces of Resnet-56 with/without skip connections. Source: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.09913.pdf.](images/loss_visualize/loss_1.png)
How do we do that:
- For a network with parameters $\theta$, produce a random Gaussian direction vector $d$ with dimensions compatible with $\theta$.
- Normalize each filter in $d$ to have the same norm of the corresponding filter in $\theta$.
In other words, we make the following replacement, as shown in eqn. [linear4]:
\begin{equation}
\label{linear4}
d_{i,j} \leftarrow \frac{d_{i,j}}{||d_{i,j}||} ||\theta_{i,j}||
\end{equation}
where $d_{i,j}$ represents the $j^{th}$ filter (not the $j^{th}$ weight) of the $i^{th}$ layer of $d$, and $||\cdot||$ denotes the Frobenius norm.
Trainability of NNs & Further Insights on the (Non)Convexity of Loss Surfaces
====
![Figure [fig:8]: Loss surfaces of ResNet-110-noshort and DenseNet for CIFAR-10. Source: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.09913.pdf.](images/loss_visualize/loss_2.png)
- Do loss functions have significant non-convexity at all?
- If they do exist, why are they not problematic in all situations?
- Why are some architectures easy to train, and why are results so sensitive to the initialization?
Network Depth and Shortcut Connections
----
![Figure [fig:9]: 2D visualization of the loss surface of ResNet and ResNet-noshort with different depth. Source: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.09913.pdf.](images/loss_visualize/loss_g1.png)
- Network depth effects the loss surfaces of NNs when skip connections are not used. As depth increases, the loss surface of networks transitions from (nearly) convex to chaotic.
- Residual(shortcut) connections prevent this transition behavior as depth increases.
Wide vs Thin Models
----
![Figure [fig:10]: Wide-ResNet-56 on CIFAR-10 both with shortcut connections (top) and without (bottom). k = 2 means twice as many filters per layer. Source: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.09913.pdf.](images/loss_visualize/loss_g2.png)
- Wider models have loss landscapes with no noticeable chaotic behavior. They also have flat minima and wide regions of convexity.
- Increased width prevents chaotic behavior, and skip connections widen minimizers. Sharpness correlates with test error.
Network Initialization & Landscape Geometry
----
- As shown in fig. [fig:9], loss landscapes seem to be partitioned into a well-defined region of ***low loss value and convex contours***, surrounded by a well-defined region of ***high loss value and non-convex contours***. The authors suggest that this partitioning might indicate why good initialization strategies are important, and further explains why normalized random initialization strategies are better.
- Also, landscape geometry too affects the generalization.
- Flatter minimizers correspond to lower test error, which strengthens the filter normalization method.
- Chaotic landscapes (deep NNs without skip connections) result in worse training and test error, while more convex landscapes have lower error values.
Convexity
----
To measure the level of convexity, compute the ***principle curvatures***, which are eigenvalues of the Hessian. A truly ***convex*** function has ***non-negative curvatures*** (a positive semi-definite Hessian), ***non-convex*** function has ***negative curvatures***.
This has some serious outcomes:
- Non-convexity in a dimensionality reduced plot means that non-convexity must be present in the full-dimensional surface.
- However, the opposite view that convexity in a low-dimensional surface does not mean that convexity is present in high-dimensional function. It might be that the positive curvatures (convexity) are dominant.
Visualizing Optimization Paths
====
Why random directions fail?
- Two random vectors in a high dimensional space will be nearly orthogonal with high probability.
- In extremely low dimensional spaces, a randomly chosen vector will lie orthogonal to this space which contains the optimization path, and a projection onto a random direction will capture almost no variation.
PCA Directions for Trajectory Plotting
- Use non-random directions. PCA will measure the variation that has been captured.
- How do we plot?
+ Given $n$ training epochs, apply PCA to the matrix, $M = [\theta_0-\theta_n;...;\theta_{n-1}-\theta_n]$ and then select the two most explanatory directions, where $\theta_i$ is the model parameters at epoch $i$ and $\theta_n$ is the the final parameters after $n$ epochs of training.
![Figure [fig:11]: Projected learning trajectories use normalized PCA directions for VGG-9. The left plot in each subfigure uses batch size 128, and the right one uses batch size 8192. Source: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.09913.pdf.](images/loss_visualize/loss_3.png)
- From the above figure, we can see that the paths move perpendicular to the contours of the loss surface. The stochasticity becomes prominent during the later stages of training, especially when weight decay and small batches comes into play.
- The path turns nearly parallel to the contours and "orbit" the solution when the stepsize is large. When the stepsize is dropped (red dot), effective noise decreases, and we see a kink(sharp twist) as the trajectory falls into the nearest local optima.
- Low dimensionality of descent path: Observed that non-chaotic landscapes are influenced by wide, nearly convex minimizers, as we have seen in Section [Wide vs Thin Models].
Conclusion
====
There are more comparisons and visualisations available in the Appendix section of the discussed paper. Please take a look to get a better understanding on how loss surfaces are affected by various hyperparameter settings.

Heat conduction in 2D¶
The heat equation in two dimensions (without advection) can be stated as
The only addition compared to the one-dimensional case is the second order derivative with respect to \(y\) on the right hand side of the equation.
Exercise
Discretize equation (1). Use the implicit discretization, i.e. calculate temperature for time step \(i\) using temperature values from time step \(i\) on the right hand side.
- How many indices do you need?
- How many boundary conditions do you need?
- Draw a stencil to illustrate the spatial grid
Reorganize the equation so that on the left hand side you have all the \(T^i\) values and on the right hand side you have all the known temperature values (\(T^{i-1}\)).
Further reorganize the equation so that the left hand side is a sum of \(T^i\) values multiplied by some constant coefficients, i.e.
\[a T_{n-1,k}^i + b T_{n,k-1}^i + c T_{n+1,k}^i + ... = \mathrm{something with T^{i-1}\]
The 2D heat equation can be discretized with forward difference in time and central difference in space (like before):
which can be reorganized to find the coefficients of the unknown temperature values:
This can again be shortened by assigning \(A = \frac{-\alpha}{\Delta x^2}\), \(C = \frac{-\alpha}{\Delta y^2}\) and \(B = \frac{2\alpha}{\Delta x^2} + \frac{2\alpha}{\Delta y^2} + \frac{\rho C_p}{\Delta t}\), leading to
We have one of such equation for each spatial grid point (i.e. if there are \(N=3\) grid points in \(x\) direction and \(K=4\) grid points in \(y\) direction, there are total of twenty of these equation). Some of the equation have to be replaced by boundary conditions.
We can use the method shown in “Finite difference method, part II” to solve these equations. However, this time the indexing of the coefficient array \(\mathbf{M}\) is a bit more complicated.
Since we have \(N \times K\) unknowns, and equally many equations, \(\mathbf{M}\) has \(N \times K\) rows and \(N \times K\) columns. With 3 grid points in \(x\) direction and 4 grid points in \(y\) direction, this means that the size of \(\mathbf{M}\) is \(12 \times 12\). For each unique pair of \(n\) and \(k\), i.e. for each spatial grid point, there is one row in the coefficient matrix.
When calculating the value of \(T_{n,k}^i\), one fills the coefficients of the \(T\) s (as separated above) at row \(n \times K + k\) (assuming we start counting from zero!). This number is called the global index of the grid point and is a unique number for each grid point in both (all) directions.
For example, when filling in coefficients of the equation that calculate \(T\) at \(n = 1\) and \(k = 2\) the row in \(\mathbf{M}\) we are looking at row \(1 \times 4 + 2\). On this row, the coefficients of the uknown temperatures will go to columns determined with the same rule: The coefficient for \(T_{n-1,k}^i\) (which is \(A\)) will go to column \((n-1)\times 4 + k\), i.e. \((1-1)\times 4 + 2\).
The whole right hand side of the discretized expression (that has only temperature values from the previous time steps) will go to the right hand side vector, row \(n \times K + k\).
If one wants to fill in a boundary condition \(T_{1,0}^i\) (i.e. the location \(y=0\)) the coefficient matrix will have a value of one at row \(1\times 4 + 0 = 4\), columnt \(1\times 4 + 0 = 4\).
Exercise
Script heat_diff2d_simple_implicit.py is an example of how to calculate one time step using the implicit finite difference method, in two spatial dimensions.
Read through the script and make sure you understand it.
Run the script in IPython (
%run scriptname.py
) and then print arrays likeM
orTnew
at your IPython prompt. How do they look like?Make the script calculate multiple time steps instead of only one:
- Modify the script so that you add an
for
loop around the two existing loops (for this, you need to definent
in your code) - Note that the temperature array only records the current known temperature field: it does not store the previous time steps within it like in the previous, 1D cases.
- At the end of the time loop, you need to copy (
np.copy()
) the new temperature arrayTnew
to be the known, “old” temperature arrayT
- Modify the script so that you add an

Polynomial baseline correction.
CorrSpec = basecorr(Spec,Dim,Ord) [CorrSpec,BLine] = basecorr(Spec,Dim,Ord)
This function computes and applies polynomial baseline corrections to
the input data array Spec
.
It returns the baseline corrected data in CorrSpec
and the
polynomial baseline itself in BLine
. The baseline is
computed by least-squares fitting polynomials of required order to the
data along specified dimensions.
Dim
is a vector giving all dimensions along which
one-dimensional baseline corrections should be applied. E.g. if
Dim=[2 1]
, then a correction is applied along dimension
2, and after that another one along dimension 1. If Dim
is
set to []
, a single all-dimensional baseline fit is applied
instead.
Ord
gives the orders for the polynomial fits listed in
Dim
, so it must have the same number of elements as
Dim
. If Dim=[]
, Ord
must have one
entry for each dimension of Spec
.
To fit a single third-order surface to 2D data, use
data = peaks(100); cdata = basecorr(data,[],[3 3]);
To apply corrections separately along each dimension, use
cdata = basecorr(data,[1 2],[3 3]);
If you want to apply a linear baseline correction along the second dimension only, use
cdata = basecorr(data,2,1);
To subtract the mean from the data array, use
cdata = basecorr(data,[],[0 0]);
1D and nD polynomial least-square fits are computed by constructing
the Vandermonde matrix associated with the problem and using MATLAB's
\
operator to solve the resulting system of linear equations.

What is MediaWiki
MediaWiki is an open source, free software package that allows you to create your own, personal, customized wikis. A wiki is a web site that can be edited by its users. The web site is generally a repository of information on some topic or set of topics. The users who edit the web site work to contribute additional information to the site. They also edit each other's work, and strive to make the entries in the wiki as factual as possible.
The word wiki is Hawian, and it means "quick." Therefore the idea behind software like WikiMedia is to create a web site where information can be posted, edited, and viewed quickly and easily. MediaWiki is the same software used to power the popular Wikipedia site. It is therefore one of the most commonly used pieces of software in the entire world.
When you install MediaWiki, you are using the same software that drives the Wikipedia. You can use it, however, not to create an encyclopedia, but to create a repository of information on any subject you deem appropriate.
What Kinds of Wiki Sites Exist?
One quick way to begin to get a feeling for MediaWiki is to go to the WikiMedia.org web site. The MediaWiki site is just one of the projects you will find on that page. Others include:
- Wiktionary - A dictionary
- Wikiquote - A collection of quotes
- WikiBooks - A collection of editable books
- WikiSource
- WikiNews - You write the news
- Wikiversity
- WikiSpecides
- WikiMedia MetaWiki, WikiMedia Commons nd WikiMedia Incubator
As you can see, the same piece of software can be put to many different uses. But this is only a very tiny fraction of the sites that use MediaWiki. Below is a link to a page with a more comprehensive list of sites. It shows that there are hundreds, if not thousands of sites that use MediaWiki, though I find that many, though by no means all, the sites are no longer active:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Sites_using_MediaWiki/en
Frequently a privately owned compay will download the WikiMedia software and create a wiki on one or more of the their products.
Installing MediaWiki - Easy Version
- sudo apt-get install mediawiki
Optionally, and if you have a large amount of disk space (4 GB free?) install the following:
- sudo apt-get install imagemagick mediawiki-math php5-gd
We then need to edit apache.conf, removing the # from the line that reads Alias /mediawiki /var/lib/mediawiki. After we edit the file, restart apache:
- sudo nano /etc/mediawiki/apache.conf
- sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Here is what the restart might look like on your system:

Now start MediaWiki: http://localhost/mediawiki
If everything is working, skip from here to the Web Setup Portion of this document.
Installing MediaWiki Manually
If the easy-install shown above does not work for you, then you can try this more detailed install process. Download MediaWiki from this site:

Overview of Install
$ tar xvzf mediawiki-1.18.1.tar.gz
$ sudo mv mediawiki-1.18.1 /var/www/mediawiki $ cd /var/www/mediawiki/ $ chmod 777 mw-config
Set up the Database
This step is optional, as the scripts run in the Web Setup Portion should do this for you automatically. Nevertheless, it is perhaps useful to undersand how to create a database of the type that MediaWiki uses to store data. In this example, we create the database itself, but not the tables that populate it.
charlie@WesternSea:/var/www/mediawiki$ mysql -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.

Web Setup Portion
Now it is time for the Web portion of the install. It is during this stage that you configure MediaWiki to support the database, and features, that you want it to use. To begin this process, you typically browse to http://localhost/mediawiki. You might, however, type in the name of another server besides localhost, depending on where you performed the portion of the install outlined in the previous section. When you browse to that page, you will see something like what is shown in Figure 01.
Figure 01: Click the "set up the wiki" link to begin the core steps in configuring your Wiki.
When performing the install, one of the most important steps is the last, when you copy a file called LocalSettings.php from you local machine to your MediaWiki installation. This file is created during the install process, and is handed to you as the last step in the install. I typically save it into /home/$USER/Downloads. It contains all the settings you specified when you ran the installatation. Here is the command I gave to copy to the LocalSettings file to its proper location. There is a built-in symlink that goes from /etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php to /var/lib/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php.
sudo cp /home/charlie/Downloads/LocalSettings.php /etc/mediawiki/.
It is also possible that LocalSettings.php was saved automatically to some location on your system, probably /etc/mediawiki/config. If this happens, you will see a note at the end of the install to this effect. Please note the exact location where LocalSettings is stored as reported by the install application. You can then copy the from there, instead of from your downloads directory. Depending on where the file is placed on your system, it might look something like this:
sudo cp /etc/mediawiki/config/LocalSettings.php /etc/mediawiki/.
Or on some systems, it might be this:
sudo mv /var/lib/mediawiki/config/LocalSettings.php /etc/mediawiki/.
When the software is fully installed, it might looking something like the image shown in Figure 02.

Set up the Logo
You might want to change the logo seen in the upper left hand corner of your screen. You should not try to edit the image found in:
/var/lib/mediawiki/skins/common/images.
This file will be replaced when you update your system. Instead, place the file that you want to use as a logo in the images directory, by issuing a command that looks something like this:
sudo cp /home/$USER/MyLogo.png /var/lib/mediawiki/images/.
Then use an editor like nano or vi to edit LocalSettings.php and set the $wgLogo variable found on about line 38:
sudo nano /etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php
The line you want to edit should end up looking something like this:
$wgLogo="/mediawiki/images/MyLogo.png"
Then go back to your copy of MediaWiki and press F5. You should see the new logo as shown here:
Basic Editing Syntax and Page Creation
You typically do not use HTML to format the pages in a Wiki. Instead, you begin editing your page, and then use the simple wiki markup syntax to format the text you place on your pages.
- If you put two single quote marks are text it appears in ''italic'': italic
- If you put two equal marks on each side of a word, it appears as a heading, level 2. Which is the equivalent of an H2 in HTML. For example: ==My Heading==.
The wiki markup syntax is designed for non-technical people. The easiest way to learn the basics, is to study the reference on the mediawiki site. Some of the more advanced issues are a bit tricky to use. For a mix of simple and more advanced syntax, see these links:

--- creation_epoch:<PHONE_NUMBER> lastmod_epoch:<PHONE_NUMBER> categories: ['Computer Problems'] title: Half-Life 2 Stuttering Problem Fixed! --- So I got my new CPU fan in the other day. It is a XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 that I got on newegg.com for $35 (shipping included). It was the recommended fan by tomshardware.com.
The fan is very, very large. I'm going to have to extend my custom wood case in order to put the plexiglass cover back on. However the fan does its job very, very well!!!
The stuttering in game was occurring because my CPU was reaching its maximum temperature. Adding this new fan dropped the temperature by 15 degrees Celsius. The stuttering no longer occurs.
So now instead of an idle temperature of 42 degrees Celsius my setup now has a temperature of 35 degrees Celsius. Instead of a full load temperature of 62 degrees Celsius I now only see 47 degrees Celsius.
For reference again I'm using:
Here is a photo of the fan sticking outside the case


1st D-I scholarship player with autism debuts with Kent St.
KENT, Ohio (AP) - Anthony Roberts scored a career-high 18 points and teammate Kalin Bennett, the first player diagnosed with autism to receive a Division I basketball scholarship, made his debut as Kent State defeated Division III opponent Hiram 97-58 on Wednesday night.
Bennett, a 6-foot-11, 300-pound freshman from Little Rock, Arkansas, entered with game in the final six minutes and scored his first collegiate basket with 2½ minutes left on a left-handed hook in the paint. He finished 1 of 3 from the floor with two rebounds and a block.
After the game, teammates led Bennett over to the victory bell, which he rang.
“For my mom to see it was really big for me,” Bennett said. “To let her know that everything you’ve done has not been in vain.”
Asked about his impact on other young people with autism he said, “It’s good to know that people look up to me but the real thing is: Everybody is capable of doing whatever they want to do in life. I hope I created a thing that’s going to transcend to more kids so they believe in themselves first and foremost.”
Bennett covered a smile with a hand when coach Rob Senderoff mentioned that he didn’t want to see him putting up ill-advised jumps shots, as he did once against Hiram.
“I told him the jump shot has to go if he wants to play meaningful minutes,” Senderoff said. “But I’m happy for him and proud of him.”
Bennett looks forward to improving his game.
“Coach has been pushing to me and pushing me to be better than I am the day before,” Bennett said. “That’s why I want to achieve and show consistent improvement.”
Antonio Williams and Troy Simons added 17 points each for the Golden Flashes and Danny Pippen had 11 points and 11 rebounds. Kent State made 13 of 35 3-pointers, including 7 of 16 in the second half.
Dean Sherman III led the Terriers with 19 points.
