Yucheng Hang is a UX/UI designer, creative technologist, and multimedia artist. Born in Yangzhou, China, she is currently based in Storrs, Connecticut. She received her BE in Digital Media Technology from Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications in 2019. During that time, Yucheng became interested in the intersection of design and technology. She started to use emerging technologies to create digital experiences that resonate with emotion and warmth. With that motivation in mind, she developed creative projects in UI/UX design, web design, and motion design.
Yucheng is currently an MFA candidate in Digital Media & Design at the University of Connecticut, focusing on web and interactive media design. She also works as a graduate assistant at the Innovation Partnership Building, where she utilizes visual communication to construct bridges between the sciences and arts. Believing in the power of empathy and storytelling, Yucheng intends to continue to create solutions that propel people forward.
"Design is my language to depict how I understand and communicate with the world."🌈
I always insist that the duty of a designer is to solve problems. Designers are responsible to see through all the fog and clutter and create solutions that propel people forward. Empathy and storytelling are two methods I use to access the goal. Capturing what users see, feel and experience by research methods and empathy, I try my best to understand users' expressions, needs, motivations and limitations. Good stories captivate audiences and convey values in an immersive way. I utilize storytelling to create pleasant experiences that foster better relationships between humans, products and society.


An Angular (Angular2, Angular4, ...) style wrapper for @stomp/stompjs.
There were compatibility issues reported, so this project has now switched to source distribution. In case it does not work for your setup, please raise a ticket.
Tested with Angular2 (2.4.0) and Angular4 (4.0.0) projects created with Angular CLI.
Initial SockJS Support. Sample at https://github.com/stomp-js/ng2-stompjs/tree/sockjs
Updated to make it compliant to possible use of APP_INITIALIZER. Please note that way to initiate the service has changed. It no longer uses StompConfigService. StompConfig is directly injected as dependency into StompService.
To install this library, run:
$ npm install @stomp/ng2-stompjs --save
or, if using yarn
$ yarn add @stomp/ng2-stompjs
This will addtionally install @stomp/stompjs from https://github.com/stomp-js/stomp-websocket
const stompConfig: StompConfig = {
// Which server?
url: 'ws://<IP_ADDRESS>:15674/ws',
// Headers
// Typical keys: login, passcode, host
headers: {
login: 'guest',
passcode: 'guest'
},
// How often to heartbeat?
// Interval in milliseconds, set to 0 to disable
heartbeat_in: 0, // Typical value 0 - disabled
heartbeat_out: 20000, // Typical value 20000 - every 20 seconds
// Wait in milliseconds before attempting auto reconnect
// Set to 0 to disable
// Typical value 5000 (5 seconds)
reconnect_delay: 5000,
// Will log diagnostics on console
debug: true
};
const
, code sample to
provide StompService
and StompConfig
will look like: providers: [
StompService,
{
provide: StompConfig,
useValue: stompConfig
}
]
In your constructor (typically of a component or a service), inject
StompService
as a dependency:
constructor(private _stompService: StompService) { }
The queue name structure and semantics vary based on your specific STOMP Broker, see: https://www.rabbitmq.com/stomp.html for RabbitMQ specific details.
Call subscribe(queueName: string, headers: StompHeaders = {})
with name of the queue which returns an Observable (details at:
https://stomp-js.github.io/ng2-stompjs/classes/stompservice.html#subscribe). Any
of Observable specific operators (map, filter, subscribe, etc.) can be
applied on it. This can also be set into a template with async
pipe.
Example:
let stomp_subscription = this._stompService.subscribe('/topic/ng-demo-sub');
stomp_subscription.map((message: Message) => {
return message.body;
}).subscribe((msg_body: string) => {
console.log(`Received: ${msg_body}`);
});
The Message
class comes from @stomp/stompjs
. So, you will need the
following import in the classes where you consume messages:
import {Message} from '@stomp/stompjs';
Not a likely chance that you would need it.
You will need to unsubscribe from stomp_subscription (which is an Observer), it will then internally unsubscribe from the underlying STOMP queue subscription.
Call publish(queueName: string, message: string, headers: StompHeaders = {})
(details at: https://stomp-js.github.io/ng2-stompjs/classes/stompservice.html#publish).
Example:
this._stompService.publish('/topic/ng-demo-sub', 'My important message');
Please note that message is actually string. So, if you need to send JSON
you will need to convert it into string (typically using
JSON.stringify()
)
stompService.state
is a BehaviorSubject
which maintains and switches
its value as per the underlying Stomp Connection status.stompService.state
and covert
the enum value (which is a number) to the corresponding string value: this._stompService.state
.map((state: number) => StompState[state])
.subscribe((status: string) => {
console.log(`Stomp connection status: ${status}`);
});
If you are interested in watching only when connection is established, you can
subscribe to this._stompService.connectObservable
.
After checking out, install the dependencies:
$ npm install
or, if using yarn
$ yarn
It uses ngc
to build.
$ npm run build
To lint all *.ts
files:
$ npm run lint
To publish it uses a shell script which copies, a slightly modified, package.json into dist/ folder and publishes only the dist/ folder.
$ bin/npm-publish

Functional Programming vs. Object-Oriented Programming
The SuperHeros Analogy
Basic Definition/Description:
Functional Programming:
"...a programming paradigm, a style of building the structure and elements of computer programs, that treat computation as the evaluation of mathematical functions and avoids state and mutable data. Functional programming emphasizes functions that produce results that depend only on their inputs and not on the program state..."1
It is not only mathematical in its design, but rather philosophical. It deals with the reduction of systems to abstractions.
*originally developed to achieve a clearer approach to the foundations of mathematics.
Object-Oriented Programming:
Object-Oriented Programming involves the creation of classes, objects, instances, and methods in order to model the world. These classes and object have associated data fields and interact with one another. It also is concern with the reduction of systems into abstractions.2
They have many similarities, both strive to model the real world, manipulate data, and produce results. It is more how these abstractions "interact/behave" that is at the core of the difference between Functional and Object-Oriented Programming.
Functional Programming takes in information. This information is assigned to variables and if this variable is called at any time, it has the same value, hence immutable. Object-Oriented Programming takes in data and assigns it to variables. The value of these variables can fluidly change throughout the process.
Functional Programming also seems like a well oiled machined that is designed to process through data in steps. It is also very linear in its thinking. One process follows another, follows another, follows another. Object-Oriented Programming seems very organic. It is almost like we are populating a world with creatures.
The SuperHero Analogy
In Functional Programming, our SuperHero has certain abilities that will be processed as we move through the program. Information about the world around our SuperHero comes in and our SuperHero responds. An outcome is determined, the world is either in chaos or peace.
In Object-Oriented Programming, our SuperHero is born with certain present abilities/powers. The world around our SuperHero is also born and these objects interact.  We are very much concerned with the State of all of our objects. Along the way, a Villain gains the abilities of a certain class, thus shifting the balance of power.
In many ways, they are the same. Recall both pull in data and create outputs/outcomes. I wonder how much this narrative/philosophical difference gives rise to different end results, different products depending on which system your mind is operating in?
An Example of Functional Programming
function sum(numbers) {
var total = 0;
forEach(numbers, function (number) {
total += number;
});
return total;
}
show(sum([1, 10, 100]));

Error when validating the certificate!Some details on PHP and cURL can be found here. |
Type a domain name to the input box and click Submit, the server will retrieve its certificate and submit its fingerprints back to the browser. You should visit the same domain with your browser and confirm that the fingerprints match. This server is most likely hosted at the IP of <IP_ADDRESS> with a reverse DNS look-up of ec2-54-76-1-218.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com so it will give an indipendent view on each website's HTTPS certificate.
WORDS list is generated based on the fingerprints and words are pseudo-randomly selected from a list of 1000 English adjectives. Thus the probability of seeing same six words is a one-in-a-billion chance. These could be memoized and re-checked later to see if the certificate has changed. Actually ideally the server would remember earlier hashes and report noticed changes directly to the client.
If you are at a coffee shop, on campus or office premises, mis-matching fingerprints might indicate that the network provider is decrypting and re-encrypting all supposedly secure HTTPS connections. They can use this for scanning your browsing habbits for forbidden content, leaking of confidential information and other various purposes. This is the man-in-the-middle attack. This site is inspired by GRC.com/fingerprints.htm which offers a similar service. See the site for more details on false positives, how to view certificates in different browsers etc.

Section 1 Introduction
AGEC-LCI is a VBA application hosted in Microsoft Excel that computes emissions generated from the application of soil amendments, fertilizers, and metal-based fungicides in agriculture (Figure 1.1).
A state-of-the-art analysis of the models for computing direct field emission from fertilizers, pesticides, and soil amendments was carried out. Acknowledging that agricultural emissions are site- and time-dependent, a parsimonious approach was considered for the selection of the models (Table 1.1). See Section 4 for more details on the selected models.

New Zealand jurors to decide if British tourist was murdered
by The Associated Press, StaffWELLINGTON, New Zealand - A New Zealand jury has been asked to decide whether a British backpacker was murdered or died accidentally after a sex game went wrong.
Grace Millane died last December on her 22nd birthday after meeting a man through the dating app Tinder and going back to his hotel apartment in central Auckland. The man later stuffed her body into a suitcase and buried her in a shallow grave.
Prosecutors say the man strangled Millane to death. Defence lawyers argue the pair was engaged in consensual erotic choking that went too far.
After a three-week trial, the judge on Friday summed up the case and turned it over to the jury.
The name of the 27-year-old charged with murdering Millane is being kept secret for now by court order.

Article One
Some days you get the bear, and some days the bear gets you. Now we know what they mean by 'advanced' tactical training. Earl Grey tea, watercress sandwiches... and Bularian canapés? Are you up for promotion? I will obey your orders. I will serve this ship as First Officer. And in an attack against the Enterprise, I will die with this crew. But I will not break my oath of loyalty to Starfleet. Talk about going nowhere fast. This should be interesting. Why don't we just give everybody a promotion and call it a night - 'Commander'? Yes, absolutely, I do indeed concur, wholeheartedly! We could cause a diplomatic crisis.
Article 2
Or do you prefer the rank of prisoner to that of lieutenant? Commander William Riker of the Starship Enterprise. In all trust, there is the possibility for betrayal. What's a knock-out like you doing in a computer-generated gin joint like this? Smooth as an android's bottom, eh, Data? I'd like to think that I haven't changed those things, sir. Some days you get the bear, and some days the bear gets you. Maybe if we felt any human loss as keenly as we feel one of those close to us, human history would be far less bloody. Mr. Crusher, ready a collision course with the Borg ship. I'll be sure to note that in my log.

Actions, Resources, and Condition Keys for Amazon CloudFront
Amazon CloudFront (service prefix: cloudfront
) provides the following service-specific resources, actions, and condition context
keys for use in IAM permission policies.

Topics
Actions Defined by Amazon CloudFront
You can specify the following actions in the Action
element of an IAM policy statement. Use policies to grant permissions to perform
an operation in AWS. When you use an action in a policy, you usually allow or
deny access to the API operation or CLI command with the same name. However,
in some cases, a single action controls access to more than one operation. Alternatively,
some operations require several different actions.
The Resource column indicates whether each action supports resource-level permissions. If
there is no value for this column, you must specify all resources ("*") in the
Resource
element of your policy statement. If the column includes a resource type, then
you can specify an ARN of that type in a statement with that action. Required
resources are indicated in the table with an asterisk (*). If you specify a resource-level
permission ARN in a statement using this action, then it must be of this type.
Some actions support multiple resource types. If the resource type is optional (not
indicated as required), then you can choose to use one but not the other.
For details about the columns in the following table, see The Actions Table.

FATAL INSTINCT A film review by Scott Renshaw Copyright 1993 Scott Renshaw
Starring: Armand Assante, Sean Young, Sherilynn Fenn, Kate Nelligan, Christopher McDonald, James Remar. Screenplay: David O'Malley. Director: Carl Reiner.
Never underestimate the power of expectations. In the wake of HOT SHOTS! PART DEUX, LOADED WEAPON 1 and ROBIN HOOD: MEN IN TIGHTS, I viewed yet another genre parody as cruel and inhuman punishment, and awaited FATAL INSTINCT with utter dread. Then, much to my astonishment, it didn't stink. Oh, make no mistake: FATAL INSTINCT isn't particularly good. I simply laughed much more than I expected to. How's that for damning with faint praise?
The "plot" of FATAL INSTINCT is a pastiche of elements from contemporary sexual thrillers and classic film noir.  He is oblivious to the attentions of his loyal secretary Laura (Sherilynn Fenn), but finds himself tempted by the sexy and seductive Lola Cain (Sean Young). After a one night stand, Ned breaks off with Lola out of marital guilt. What Ned doesn't know is that his wife Laura (Kate Nelligan) is having an affair of her own, and planning with her lover Frank (Christopher McDonald) to murder Ned in a very specific manner to cash in on a triple indemnity insurance policy. Meanwhile, a vindictive ex-con Ned unsuccessfully defended (James Remar) is paroled, and plots to kill Ned as well. Once the jilted Lola is added to the mix, it seems everyone in L.A. wants Ned Rivera dead.
The best of the Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker parodies (AIRPLANE!, THE NAKED GUN) demonstrated sucessful application of a fundamental rule for the form: keep the gags coming so fast that you don't have time to notice the lousy ones. FATAL INSTINCT owes its successes, small as they may be, to adherence to this principal. There are plenty of duds in FATAL INSTINCT, but the pacing is lively enough that they don't sit there waiting for an audience reaction that's never going to come. Director Carl Reiner hasn't shown a consistent talent for comic pacing in his feature film career; for every WHERE'S POPPA? or ALL OF ME, there has been a SUMMER SCHOOL or SIBLING RIVALRY. Fortunately, the Carl Reiner who helped Steve Martin's early parodies click is at work here. He keeps everything moving, avoiding the error that sank MEN IN TIGHTS.
Those ZAZ classics had one other important thing going for them, namely well-known dramatic actors like Leslie Nielsen and Lloyd Bridges playing a brilliant deadpan mockery of their own B-movie roles. Armand Assante is a better dramatic actor than Nielsen or Bridges, but he too turns in a fine spoof of one of the lowlights on his resume, the dopey Mike Hammer tale I, THE JURY. He seems to have a great deal of fun mocking the image of the sullen detective, and pulls off some surprisingly deft physical comedy. It's also a hoot watching Sean Young play to her reputation as a jealous psycho. Perhaps half my enjoyment of FATAL INSTINCT came from appreciating the career subtext of these two performances.
Before it seems as though I have nothing but kind words for FATAL INSTINCT, there is one major thing lacking: originality. Its primary satirical targets are BASIC INSTINCT, FATAL ATTRACTION and CAPE FEAR, each of which has been done in other recent films or TV's "The Simpsons." Granted, the scripts were in production simultaneously, but much of the freshness is still lost. There are also some tedious "lotsies," those sequences of progressively sillier events a la O. J. Simpson's ill-fated boat investigation at the beginning of THE NAKED GUN. They have to be completely over the top to work, and FATAL INSTINCT's script repeatedly shows a resistance to giving in to complete anarchy. There was a moment near the climax when I was waiting for an almost too-obvious gag which *still* would have been funny, but screenwriter David O'Malley missed his opportunity.
In retrospect, I almost feel guilty about some of the places I laughed. It's hard to explain how a line like, "I'll try to help you, Miss Cain, if I'm able," can seem funny, but it did. Plenty of people will leave FATAL INSTINCT shaking their heads. I don't know; maybe they were expecting too much.
