There is a place where the archetypal metropolitan Jewish man is not immediately stereotyped as a cerebral, well read, socially liberal, fiscally gifted, online dating, fashion conscious, slightly balding or semitically afroed, maternally inclined iteration of Woody Allen.
No.
Rather, they are thought of as tanned, toned, gun carrying, smoking but in that sexy foreign way, bred athletically from birth, vertically blessed, chiseled to the point that you could grate cheese on their abdominals, krav maga practicing warriors.
If you’ve been to Israel, you know this for a fact.
If not, you’ve seen the pictures tourists bring back.


HOME FRIES A film review by Matt Williams
RATING: * * 1/2* out of * * * *
Home Fries is an unusual romantic comedy where you never quite know what to expect. Just when you think you've figured it out, the film veers off in a different direction. The end result may leave you disoriented, but its ultimately pleasing.
Sally (Drew Barrymore) has been having an affair with a married man. Not only that, but she's eight-months pregnant, and her lover still refuses to leave his wife. Oh well, at least Sally has her dependable Burger Mart job to count on.
However, one night, she picks up a radio communication on her drive-thru headset. She hears the chatter between Dorian (Luke Wilson) and Angus (Jake Busey), two brothers in the Air National Guard, who have "borrowed" a helicopter to use in an elaborate prank.
However, when the prank backfires, Dorian is sent to the Burger Mart to discover if anyone there knows what happened. Yet, instead of finding witnesses, Dorian finds love...with Sally.
So is this movie a spunky romantic comedy where Sally and Dorian overcome their obstacles to fall in love? Or is it a quaint small town slice-of-life story, where the glamourous jobs are all at the local cigarette factory? Maybe it's a dysfunctional family portrait, or even a grim black comedy? The answer to all of those is yes.
As you might surmise, the movie becomes a bit cluttered here and there. However, though it may not always know what genre it wants to be, it always manages to be amusing, tackling all of its varied topics with a true sense of fun.
Drew Barrymore fits perfectly as the wholesome young woman who just happened to get pregnant while having an affair with a married man. Compared to her easygoing style, Luke Wilson comes off a bit stiff.
However, the supporting roles are all top notch. Jake Busey is a hoot as Dorian's brother Angus...but he can't compare to the masterfully wicked performance by Catherine O'Hara, as the boys' mother. Shelly Duvall and Lanny Flaherty, as Sally's white trash parents, deliver a couple of good scenes as well.
If you're in the mood for an out of the ordinary romantic comedy (and like your humor a little warped), Home Fries fills the bill.

You can also integrate the Puppet infrastructure automation tool into CloudFormation. As mentioned, while CloudFormation provides you a lot of power to script the configuration of AWS resources, it’s restricted to AWS resources. Puppet and others tools like it allow you to script your infrastructure outside the context of any cloud provider such as AWS. So, the point is that you can script your entire infrastructure in a tool like Puppet. You can also script your entire AWS infrastructure in nothing but CloudFormation. Instead, you’re going to use both of the tools so that you can leverage the best of both CloudFormation and Puppet. CloudFormation is best for defining the static creation of AWS resources while leveraging the dynamic nature of AWS resources. Puppet’s strength is that it’s a more expressive language for defining actions that occur within the instances once they’ve been provisioned.
Within the Parameters section, add the following parameters to the CloudFormation mytarget.template file.
Within the Mappings section, add the following configuration to the CloudFormation mytarget.template file
Within the Resources section, add the following configuration to the CloudFormation mytarget.template file.
Within the Outputs section, add the following parameters to the CloudFormation mytarget.template file. Outputs is an optional section where you return values to the user of the CloudFormation stack. Outputs are displayed in the Outputs section in the Management Console and when running the cfn-describe-stacks command.

To create MFCC cepstrum using this program, go to the
edu/cmu/sphinx/tools/feature
directory, and type:
ant -Dinput="input file" -Doutput="output file" cepstra_producer
To create a binary PLP cepstrum file using this program, type:
ant -Dinput="input file" -Doutput="output file" plp_producer
To create a binary spectra file, type:
ant -Dinput="input file" -Doutput="output file" spectra_producer
As you might notice by comparing the files cepstra_dump.props and spectra_dump.props in the "edu/cmu/sphinx/tools/feature" directory, the only difference in setup between dumping different types of features is in the sequence of data processors as specified in the properties file. If you give it a difference data processor sequence, it will give you different output.
Binary File Format
The first 4 bytes of the binary file is an integer indicating the total number of data points in the file. This is used by the program that reads this file to check the endianness of the file by comparing with the file size. The rest of the file is simply the data points. Each data point is a 4-byte floating point number, in big-endian order.

Header package containing a collection of 128-bit SIMD operations over 16-bit integer elements.
Most of these operations are implemented in a single instruction on newer (POWER6/POWER7POWER8/POWER9) processors. This header serves to fill in functional gaps for older (POWER7, POWER8) processors and provides a in-line assembler implementation for older compilers that do not provide the build-ins.
Most vector short (16-bit integer halfword) operations are implemented with PowerISA VMX instructions either defined by the original VMX (AKA Altivec) or added to later versions of the PowerISA. PowerISA 2.07B (POWER8) added several useful halfword operations (count leading zeros, population count) not included in the original VMX. PowerISA 3.0B (POWER9) adds several more (absolute difference, compare not equal, count trailing zeros, extend sign, extract/insert, and reverse bytes). Most of these intrinsic (compiler built-ins) operations are defined in <altivec.h> and described in the compiler documentation.
This header covers operations that are either:
Added vec_vmaddeuh() and vec_vmaddouh() as an optimization for the vector multiply quadword implementations on POWER7.
It would be useful to provide a vector multiply high halfword (return the high order 16-bits of the 32-bit product) operation. This can be used for multiplicative inverse (effectively integer divide) operations. Neither integer multiply high nor divide are available as vector instructions. However the multiply high halfword operation can be composed from the existing multiply even/odd halfword operations followed by the vector merge even halfword operation. Similarly a multiply low (modulo) halfword operation can be composed from the existing multiply even/odd halfword operations followed by the vector merge odd halfword operation.
As a prerequisite we need to provide the merge even/odd halfword operations. While PowerISA has added these operations for word and doubleword, instructions are nor defined for byte and halfword. Fortunately vector merge operations are just a special case of vector permute. So the vec_vmrgoh() and vec_vmrgeh() implementation can use vec_perm and appropriate selection vectors to provide these merge operations.
But this is complicated by little-endian (LE) support as specified in the OpenPOWER ABI and as implemented in the compilers. Little-endian changes the effective vector element numbering and the location of even and odd elements. This means that the vector built-ins provided by altivec.h may not generate the instructions you would expect.
The OpenPOWER ABI provides a helpful table of Endian Sensitive Operations. For for vec_mule (vmuleuh, vmulesh):
Replace with vmulouh and so on, for LE.
For for vec_mulo (vmulouh, vmulosh):
Replace with vmuleuh and so on, for LE.
Also for vec_perm (vperm) it specifies:
For LE, Swap input arguments and complement the selection vector.
The above is just a sampling of a larger list of Endian Sensitive Operations.
The obvious coding for Vector Multiply High Halfword would be:
A couple problems with this:
The first step is to implement Vector Merge Even Halfword operation:
For big-endian we have a straight forward vec_perm with a permute select vector interleaving even halfwords from vectors vra and vrb.
For little-endian we need to nullify the LE transform applied by the compiler. So the select vector looks like it interleaves odd halfwords from vectors vrb and vra. It also reverses byte numbering within halfwords. The compiler transforms this back into the operation we wanted in the first place. The result is not endian sensitive and is stable across BE/LE implementations. Similarly for the Vector Merge Odd Halfword operation.
As good OpenPOWER ABI citizens we should also provide endian sensitive operations vec_mrgeh() vec_mrgoh(). For example:
Also to follow that pattern established for vec_int32_ppc.h we should provide implementations for Vector Merge Algebraic High/Low Halfword. For example:
This is simpler as we can use the endian invariant vec_vmrgeh() operation. Similarly for Vector Merge Algebraic Low Halfword using vec_vmrgoh().
Now we have all the parts we need to implement multiply high/low halfword. For example Multiply High Unsigned Halfword:
Similarly for Multiply High Signed Halfword.
Finally we can implement the Multiply Low Halfword which by PowerISA conventions is called Multiply Unsigned Halfword Modulo:
So what does the compiler generate after unwinding three levels of inline functions. For this test case:
The GCC 8 compiler targeting powerpc64le and -mcpu=power8 generates:
The addis, addi, lvx instruction sequence loads the permute selection constant vector. The xxlnor instruction complements the selection vector for LE. These instructions are only needed once per function and can be hoisted out of loops and shared across instances of vec_mulhuh(). Which might look like this:
The vmulouh, vmuleuh, vperm instruction sequence is the core of the function. They multiply the elements and selects/merges the high order 16-bits of each product into the result vector.
Suppose we have a requirement to convert an array of 16-bit unsigned short values to decimal. The classic itoa implementation performs a sequence of divide / modulo by 10 operations that produce one (decimal) value per iteration, until the divide returns 0.
For this example we want to vectorize the operation and the PowerISA (and most other platforms) does not provide a vector integer divide instruction. But we do have vector integer multiply. As we will see the multiply high defined above is very handy for applying the multiplicative inverse. Also, the conversion divide is a constant value applied across the vector which simplifies the coding.
Here we can use the multiplicative inverse which is a scaled fixed point fraction calculated from the original divisor. This works nicely if the fixed radix point is just before the 16-bit fraction and we have a multiply high (vec_mulhuh()) operation. Multiplying a 16-bit unsigned integer by a 16-bit unsigned fraction generates a 32-bit product with 16-bits above (integer) and below (fraction) the radix point. The high 16-bits of the product is a good approximation of the integer quotient.
It turns out that generating the multiplicative inverse can be tricky. To produce correct results over the full range, requires possible pre-scaling and post-shifting, and sometimes a corrective addition. Fortunately, the mathematics are well understood and are commonly used in optimizing compilers. Even better, Henry Warren's book has a whole chapter on this topic.
In the chapter above;
Figure 10-2 Computing the magic number for unsigned division.
provides a sample C function for generating the magic number (actually a struct containing; the magic multiplicative inverse, "add" indicator, and the shift amount). For the 16-bit unsigned divisor 10, this is { 52429, 0, 3 }:
Which could look like this:
But we also need the modulo to extract each digit. The simplest and oldest technique is to multiply the quotient by the divisor (constant 10) and subtract that from the original dividend. Here we can use the vec_muluhm() operation we defined above. Which could look like this:
As we mentioned above, some divisors require an add before the shift as a correction. For the 16-bit unsigned divisor 10000 this is { 41839, 1, 14 }:
In this case the perfect multiplier is too large (>= 2**16). So the magic multiplier is reduced by 2**16 and to correct for this we need to add the dividend to the product. This add may generate a carry that must be included in the shift. Here vec_avg handles the 17-bit sum internally before shifting right 1. But vec_avg adds an extra +1 (for rounding) that we don't want. So we use (n-1) for the product correction then complete the operation with shift right (s-1). Which could look like this:
The modulo computation remains the same as Divide by constant 10 examples.
We can use the example above (see Multiply High Unsigned Halfword Example) to illustrate the performance metrics pveclib provides. For vec_mulhuh() the core operation is the sequence vmulouh/vmuleuh/vperm. This represents the best case latency, when it is used multiple times in a single larger function.
The compiler notes that vmulouh/vmuleuh are independent instructions that can execute concurrently (in separate vector pipelines). The compiler schedules them to issue in same cycle. The latency for vmulouh/vmuleuh is listed as 7 cycle and the throughput of 2 per cycle (there are 2 vector pipes for multiply). As we assume this function will use both vector pipelines, the throughput for this function is reduced to 1 per cycle.
We still need to select/merge the results. The vperm instruction is dependent on the execution of both vmulouh/vmuleuh and load of the select vector complete. For this case we assume that the load of the permute select vector has already executed. The processor can not issue the vperm until both vmulouh/vmuleuh instructions execute. The latency for vperm is 2 cycles (3 on POWER9). So the best case latency for this operation is is (7 + 2 = 9) cycles (10 on POWER9).
Looking at the first or only execution of vec_mulhuh() in a function defines the worse case latency. Here we have to include the permute select vector load and (for LE) the select vector complement. However this case provides additional multiple pipe parallelism that needs to be accounted for in the latencies.
The compiler notes that addis/vmulouh/vmuleuh are independent instructions that can execute concurrently in separate pipelines. So the compiler schedules them to issue in same cycle. The latency for vmulouh/vmuleuh is 7 cycles while the addis latency is only 2 cycles. The dependent addi instruction can issue in the 3rd cycle, while vmulouh/vmuleuh are still executing. The addi also has a 2 cycle latency, so the dependent lvx can issue in the 5th cycle, while vmulouh/vmuleuh are still executing. The lvx has a latency of 5 cycles and will not complete execution until 2 cycles after vmulouh/vmuleuh. The dependent xxlnor is waiting of the load (lvx) and has a latency of 2 cycles.
So there are two independent instruction sequences; vmulouh/vmuleuh and addis/addi/lvx/xxlnor. Both must complete execution before the vperm can issue and complete the operation. The later sequence has the longer (2+2+5+2=11) latency and dominates the timing. So the worst latency for the full sequence is (2+2+5+2+2 = 13) cycles (14 on POWER9).

500. Wooow! Something is technically wrong.
Thank you for noticing, we are going to fix it up and have things back to normal soon.


Shoutouts
Shoutouts are blog posts about people who do cool stuff. They're an attempt to balance out a little bit of the harassment that the people get. When someone gets called "not technical enough", I write up a list of all the cool shit they've done. When someone gets called "a quota hire", I point out all the ways they've helped people. When someone's manager is emailed with lies, I rebut with all the truthful praise I can muster.
Shoutouts are not objective. They're not biographies.  I hope they offset the pain a little bit.
If you've got an idea for somone who deserves a Shoutout about them, let me know! If you disagree, feel free to make your opinion known by writing it and putting it in one of these! And finally, if you think I missed something important: Write your own! The point of these is to show support for people who get unfairly demonized. The more individuals who do it, the better!

Mesos Testing Patterns
A collection of common testing patterns used in Mesos tests. If you have found a good way to test a certain condition that you think may be useful for other cases, please document it here together with motivation and background.
Expediting events with Clock
Some events in Mesos are separated by certain timeouts, for example framework registration attempts. Simple waiting for such events to fire leads to blocking the test thread for the duration of the associated timeout. This increases the duration of make check
for no good reason.
If an event is triggered by an act of processing a message from an actor’s mailbox, it can be expedited with the help of libprocess' Clock
routines. Delayed messages are maintained in sorted order by their due time and are dispatched - i.e. pushed into destination mailboxes - when this time comes. An important bit here is that time is driven by the internal libprocess clock. We can shift this clock into the future by calling Clock::advance(<duration>)
, rendering certain front messages in the collection due now. These messages are dispatched instantly, effectively overriding the associated event’s timeout.
NOTE: Without calling Clock::settle()
there is no guarantee a dispatched message has been already processed.
Below is an example of this pattern. To avoid master backlogging, Mesos frameworks usually wait for some time (backoff) before retrying registration. In the test below we simulate the loss of a registration request, but avoid blocking the test for the backoff duration.
TEST_F(FaultToleranceTest, FrameworkReliableRegistration)
{
Try<PID<Master>> master = StartMaster();
ASSERT_SOME(master);
Try<PID<Slave>> slave = StartSlave();
ASSERT_SOME(slave);
// As a side effect of driver instantiation, registration backoff will be set
// to a default: internal::scheduler::REGISTRATION_BACKOFF_FACTOR.
MockScheduler sched;
MesosSchedulerDriver driver(
&sched, DEFAULT_FRAMEWORK_INFO, master.get(), DEFAULT_CREDENTIAL);
Future<Nothing> registered;
EXPECT_CALL(sched, registered(&driver, _, _))
.WillOnce(FutureSatisfy(®istered));
EXPECT_CALL(sched, resourceOffers(&driver, _))
.WillRepeatedly(Return());
EXPECT_CALL(sched, offerRescinded(&driver, _))
.Times(AtMost(1));
Future<AuthenticateMessage> authenticateMessage =
FUTURE_PROTOBUF(AuthenticateMessage(), _, master.get());
// Drop the first framework registered message, allow subsequent messages.
Future<FrameworkRegisteredMessage> frameworkRegisteredMessage =
DROP_PROTOBUF(FrameworkRegisteredMessage(), master.get(), _);
driver.start();
// Ensure authentication occurs.
AWAIT_READY(authenticateMessage);
AWAIT_READY(frameworkRegisteredMessage);
// Trigger the registration retry instantly to avoid blocking the test.
Clock::pause();
Clock::advance(internal::scheduler::REGISTRATION_BACKOFF_FACTOR);
AWAIT_READY(registered); // Ensures registered message is received.
driver.stop();
driver.join();
Shutdown();
Clock::resume();
}
Using Clock
magic to ensure an event is processed
Scheduling a sequence of events in an asynchronous environment is not easy: a function call usually initiates an action and returns immediately, while the action runs in background. A simple, obvious, and bad solution is to use os::sleep()
to wait for action completion. The time the action needs to finish may vary on different machines, while increasing sleep duration increases the test execution time and slows down make check
. One of the right ways to do it is to wait for an action to finish and proceed right after. This is possible using libprocess' Clock
routines.
Every message enqueued in a libprocess process' (or actor’s, to avoid ambiguity with OS processes) mailbox is processed by ProcessManager
(right now there is a single instance of ProcessManager
per OS process, but this may change in the future). ProcessManager
fetches actors from the runnable actors list and services all events from the actor’s mailbox. Using Clock::settle()
call we can block the calling thread until ProcessManager
empties mailboxes of all actors. Here is the example of this pattern:
// As Master::killTask isn't doing anything, we shouldn't get a status update.
EXPECT_CALL(sched, statusUpdate(&driver, _))
.Times(0);
// Set expectation that Master receives killTask message.
Future<KillTaskMessage> killTaskMessage =
FUTURE_PROTOBUF(KillTaskMessage(), _, master.get());
// Attempt to kill unknown task while agent is transitioning.
TaskID unknownTaskId;
unknownTaskId.set_value("2");
// Stop the clock.
Clock::pause();
// Initiate an action.
driver.killTask(unknownTaskId);
// Make sure the event associated with the action has been queued.
AWAIT_READY(killTaskMessage);
// Wait for all messages to be dispatched and processed completely to satisfy
// the expectation that we didn't receive a status update.
Clock::settle();
Clock::resume();
Intercepting a message sent to a different OS process
Intercepting messages sent between libprocess processes (let’s call them actors to avoid ambiguity with OS processes) that live in the same OS process is easy, e.g.:
Future<SlaveReregisteredMessage> slaveReregisteredMessage =
FUTURE_PROTOBUF(SlaveReregisteredMessage(), _, _);
...
AWAIT_READY(slaveReregisteredMessage);
However, this won’t work if we want to intercept a message sent to an actor (technically a UPID
) that lives in another OS process. For example, CommandExecutor
spawned by an agent will live in a separate OS process, though master and agent instances live in the same OS process together with our test (see mesos/src/tests/cluster.hpp
). The wait in this code will fail:
Future<ExecutorRegisteredMessage> executorRegisteredMessage =
FUTURE_PROTOBUF(ExecutorRegisteredMessage(), _, _);
...
AWAIT_READY(executorRegisteredMessage);
Why messages sent outside the OS process are not intercepted?
Libprocess events may be filtered (see libprocess/include/process/filter.hpp
). FUTURE_PROTOBUF
uses this ability and sets an expectation on a filter
method of TestsFilter
class with a MessageMatcher
, that matches the message we want to intercept. The actual filtering happens in ProcessManager::resume()
, which fetches messages from the queue of the received events.
No filtering happens when sending, encoding, or transporting the message (see e.g. ProcessManager::deliver()
or SocketManager::send()
). Therefore in the aforementioned example, ExecutorRegisteredMessage
leaves the agent undetected by the filter, reaches another OS process where executor lives, gets enqueued into the CommandExecutorProcess
‘ mailbox and can be filtered there, but remember our expectation is set in another OS process!
How to workaround
Consider setting expectations on corresponding incoming messages ensuring they are processed and therefore ACK message is sent.
For the aforementioned example, instead of intercepting ExecutorRegisteredMessage
, we can intercept RegisterExecutorMessage
and wait until its processed, which includes sending ExecutorRegisteredMessage
(see Slave::registerExecutor()
):
Future<RegisterExecutorMessage> registerExecutorMessage =
FUTURE_PROTOBUF(RegisterExecutorMessage(), _, _);
...
AWAIT_READY(registerExecutorMessage);
Clock::pause();
Clock::settle();
Clock::resume();


Vivo U20 with Snapdragon 675 launched in India at Rs 10,990
by Aakash JhaveriVivo U20 with Snapdragon 675 launched in India at Rs 10,990
Priced surprisingly low
(Image credit: Future)
The Vivo U20 has finally launched in India, and at a starting price of Rs 10,990, it is probably the most affordable Snapdragon 675-powered smartphone currently available.
This year, Vivo simplified its lineup while adding new budget and gaming-centric smartphones. The U series is meant to take care of the highly competitive sub-15K segment of India. The Vivo U20 is priced at Rs 10,990 for the base 4GB RAM variant and Rs 11,990 for the 6GB variant. The first sale is scheduled for November 28.
Vivo U20 specifications
As with many other mid-rangers in this segment, the Vivo U20 is powered by the Snapdragon 675 AIE chipset, with 4GB or 6GB of RAM, and 64GB of UFS 2.1 storage which can be further expanded via micro SD.
In terms of design, we get a polycarbonate back with the camera array and the physical fingerprint scanner. The front has a 6.53-inch Full HD+ LCD panel with a small waterdrop notch on the top for the 16MP front camera. The screen-to-body ratio is a respectable 90.3%, and it is Widevine L1 certified out-of-the-box.
The rest of the three cameras are consist of a 16MP f/1.8 primary camera, an 8MP ultrawide shooter with a 120-degree field-of-view, and a 2MP macro lens for close-ups.
The Vivo U20 houses a big 5,000mAh battery, which supports 18W Dual-Engine fast charging over USB Type-C. The charging port is flanked by the loudspeaker grille and the 3.5mm headphone jack.

session=/usr/bin/gnome-session. For OPENBOX session=/usr/bin/openbox-session and
for XFCE
session=/usr/bin/startxfce4.
It is also possible to set the preferred session on a per-user basis by editing the ~/.dmrc file for each user and adding:
[Desktop]
Session=xfce
You can replace the default dummy face in the greeting screen by
another image representing your user. For that, copy or symlink
the desired image to your home directory with the name
.face
.
You can manually start lxdm, e.g, if the bootscript
has been installed, by running, as root
user:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/lxdm start
By convention, X should be executed at runlevel 5, consequently,
the same is true for lxdm.
However, the LFS default runlevel is 3. Changing to runlevel 5,
from the console (as root
user)
starts the lxdm
bootscript and presents the greeter screen:
init 5
In order to permanently set the default to 5, starting the
lxdm greeter screen
automatically, you can modify /etc/inittab
. As the root
user:
cp -v /etc/inittab{,-orig} && sed -i '/initdefault/ s/3/5/' /etc/inittab
You should also disable default elogind power management:
cat >> /etc/elogind/logind.conf << "EOF"
AllowSuspend=no
AllowHibernation=no
EOF
One important script, executed after login is /etc/lxdm/Xsession
which we have fixed to fit
BLFS specifications.

Bryan Lawson
Referenced as a major conceptual foundation by Dan Lockton regards his "Design with Intent" workshopping cards. They talk about design 'gambits' drawing a parallel with chess players, who do not exhaustively or analytically approach a game, but instead their expertise relies on 'experience' and 'recognition' of the board state. Similarly, they explore studies of conversation within an architectural practice, and descriptions of two-dimensional images shared between graphical designers, concluding they rely on a shared base of 'precedent' references. They note the dominance of story, e.g. within the architectural practice, and characterise forms of memory in use as being 'episodic' (narrative) rather than 'semantic' (theoretical/verbal?)
This suggests a line of enquiry for me, that users may be taught the value-system (win/lose analogy with chess) and the gambits of programming through preparing their recognition of problem situations and possible solutions. This could mean they can act intelligently within the program design space, without necessarily being coders. They may recognise the structure of a failure condition without necessarily having to demonstrate it (needing a digitally programmed prototype). With sufficient priming in this space, it may be possible for domain-led program design discussion to be sustained by non-programmers.
They draw upon the concept of affordance as a proposed organising principle for precedents, so that designers can match problem cases to possible stories or previous scenarios.
They interestingly draw out this contrast of being "solution focused" (designerly?) versus "problem focused" (analytical?). Could this relate to hacking versus computer science - combining designerly strategies with code?)
"The paper concludes that design expertise cannot be understood by studying actions alone but that our research needs to concentrate on perception and recognition and that we will have to examine conversations and memories as much as drawings."
"to get good data on this we need to study not just the actions, graphical outputs and finished designs of these designers but also the conversations they have with each other and their clients during their normal working practice"
"for [high level thinking] to occur in design teams the schemata and gambits need to be shared to the extent that they can be named and communicated with simple references." - suggests a kind of test for the success of pedagogy to teach programming gambits to participants - can they use them as shared references.
Cross (1982) credited for phrase "designerly way of knowing".
Adelson, B. (1981). "Problem solving and the development of abstract categories in programming languages." Memory and Cognition 9(4): 422-433.
Berlin, N. M. (1993). "Beyond program understanding: a look at programming expertise in industry. Empirical Studies of Programmers." - described in the text as 'expert computer programmers appear to recall larger chunks of code and to be more able to adapt them to their current situation'
Gibson (1986) ... first drew our attention to the idea of affordances in perception [arguing] that whatever the explicitly intended function of an object we also see that it affords the possibility of certain behaviour.


Hi all,
I've just assembled and install my 1st kit and everything worked great. I then start to make some modifications to the code (my programming skills are very basic) and there's an issue I'm unable to overcome.
I wanted temperature from GLCD to be sent to emoncms, so I added temperature to the payloadtx and switch the order with payloadglcd in order to have "temperature" variable defined
___________________
typedef struct { int temperature; } PayloadGLCD;
PayloadGLCD emonglcd;
typedef struct { int power1, power2, power3, Vrms, temperature; } PayloadTX;
PayloadTX emontx;
___________________
As it was a 4 digit "number", and I want the temperature to be XX.Y I removed the *100 on this line:
______________
emonglcd.temperature = (int) (temp);
______________
It worked but probably I'm missing something because all I can get on emoncms (feeds) are the first 2 digits (no decimals)
I have the same issue with the milivolts from the emontx_low_temperature module. Can anyonte explain how can I have decimal readings on the XX.Y (or XX.YY) format either from temperature and battery voltage on emontx?
Sorry if it's kind of a dumb question, but I search for this and couldn't find an anwser.
Thanks,
Tiago
Re: Temperature decimals from emonglcd to emoncms
emoncms has been designed to receive and accept signed integer values. Therefore for something like a temperature that has a restricted range - at the most -20 to +60 say, it makes sense to multiply by 100 first. Then it becomes possible to have a temperature like 26.78º which is transmitted in the form 2678. Inside emoncms, before you display it, you divide by 100 to get back to 26.78º. If you don't multiply by 10 or 100 first, you can send a temperature of 26 or 27, but you can get no closer.
Re: Temperature decimals from emonglcd to emoncms
I am sending a 4-digit value to emonCMS from a pressure sensor (reading in inHg) and used the input processing to multiply the value by 0.01 to get the decimal back. For example, it is sent like 2999 and I want to see it as 29.99. The input processing does scale it properly except it will only show one significant digit when I view it in a feed (29.9 versus 29.99). My battery voltage reading has two digits of precision and I'm trying to figure out how to get that with this reading since that is how it is usually displayed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Good day, I am Mr. Kevin Garforth,staff of Cater Allen Private Bank. I am contacting you concerning a deceased customer and an investment he placed under our banks management three years ago.I Would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this mail.I am contacting you independently of our investigation and no one is informed of this communication. I would like to intimate you with certain facts that I believe would be of interest to you. In the year 2002, the subject matter; came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our private banking division. He informed us that he had a financial portfolio of Six Million United States dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his case, I made numerous suggestions in line with my duties as the de-facto chief operations officer of the private banking sector then, especially given the volume of funds he wished to put into our bank. We met on numerous occasions prior to any investments being placed.I encouraged him to consider various growth funds with prime ratings. The favored route in my advice to customers is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative investments. Based on my advice, We spun the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first months of operation, the accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over Two million United States Dollars, this margin was not the full potential of the fund but he desired low risk guaranteed returns on investments. In mid 2003, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Helsinki- Finland. He directed that I liquidate the funds and deposit it with a security firm. I informed him that my Bank would have to make special arrangements to have this done and in order not to circumvent due process, the bank would have to make a 9.5 % deduction from the funds to cater for banking and statutory charges. He complained about the charges but later came around when I explained to him the complexities of the task he was asking of us. Cash movement across boarders has become especially strict since the incidents of 9/11. I contacted my affiliate and made the funds available to the security firm. I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited with the security firm. The Security Firm is a specialist private firm that accepts deposits from high net worth individuals and blue chip corporations that handle valuable products or undertake transactions that need immediate access to cash. This small and highly private organization is familiar especially to the highly placed and well-connected organizations. In line with instructions, the money was deposited with the security firm. The deceased told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we had, this transpired around 25th of November 2003.In June last year, we got a call from the security firm informing us about the inactivity of that particular portfolio.This was an astounding position as far as I was concerned, given the fact that I managed the private banking sector I was the only one who knew about the deposit at the security firm, and I could not understand why the deceased had not come forward to claim his deposit. I made futile efforts to locate the deceased. I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of Cater Allen.Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently our client was dead. A person who suited his description was declared dead of a heart attack in canne, in Southern part of France.We were soon enough to identify the body and cause of death was confirmed. The bank immediately launched an investigation into possible surviving next of kin to alert about the situation and also to come forward to claim his estate. If you are familiar with private banking affairs, those who patronize our services usually prefer anonymity, but also some levels of detachment from conventional processes. In his bio-data form, he listed no next of kin. In the field of private banking, opening an account with us means no one will know of its existence, accounts are rarely held under a name; depositors use numbers and codes to make the accounts anonymous. This bank also gives the choice to depositors of having their mail sent to them or held at the bank itself, ensuring that there are no traces of the account and as I said, rarely do they nominate next of kin. Private banking clients apart from not nominating next of kin also usually in most cases leave wills in our care, in this case; the deceased died without a testate. In line with our internal processes for account holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem. It is this investigation that resulted in my being furnished with your details as a possible relative of the deceased. My present official capacity as the Head of Finance dictates that I am the only party to supervise the investigation and the only party to receive the results of the investigation. What this means,is that our dear late fellow died with no known or identifiable family member. This leaves me as the only person with the full picture of what the prevailing situation is in relation to the deposit and the late beneficiary of the deposit. According to practice, The Security Firm will by the end of this financial year broadcast a request for statements of claim to Cater Allen, failing to receive viable claims they will most probably revert the deposit back to Cater Allen.This will result in the money entering the Cater Allen accounting system and the portfolio will be out of my hands and out of the private banking division. This will not happen if I have my way. What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something. It is only an outsider to the banking world who finds the internal politics of the banking world aberrational. The world of private banking especially is fraught with huge rewards for those that occupy certain offices and oversee certain portfolios. You should have begun by now to put together the general direction of what I propose. There is Six Million dollars deposited in a security firm, I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so. I alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as my Bank is concerned. The transaction with our late customer concluded when I sent the funds to the security firm, all outstanding interactions in relation to the file are just customer services and due process. The security Firm has no single idea of what�s the history or nature of the deposit. They are simply awaiting instructions to release the deposit to any party that come forward. This is the situation. This bank has spent great amounts of money trying to track this man�s family; they have investigated for months and have found no family. The investigation has come to an end. My proposal:I now seek your permission to present you as a next of kin to the deceased, as all documentations will be carefully worked to make you the beneficiary to the funds $6,000 000 00 (Six Million United states Dollar) ; I am prepared to place you in a position to instruct The security Firm to release the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation. Upon receipt of the deposit,I am prepared to share the money with you. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 60/40.I would have gone ahead to ask that the funds be released to me, but that would have drawn a straight line to me and my involvement in claiming the deposit.I assure you that I could have the deposit released to you within a few days. I will simply inform Cater Allen of the final closing of the file relating to the deceased. I will then officially communicate with The Security Firm and instruct them to release the deposit to you. With these two things: all is done. The alternative would be for us to have The Security Firm direct the funds to another bank with you as account holder. This way there will be no need for you to think of receiving the money from The Security Company. We can fine-tune this based on our interactions am aware of the consequences of this proposal.I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail. I ask that you do not be vindictive and destructive. If my offer is of no appeal to you, delete this message and forget I ever contacted you. Do not destroy my career because you do not approve of my proposal. You may not know this but people like myself who have made tidy sums out of comparable situations run the whole private banking sector.I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience, this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move. Such opportunities only come ones' way once in a lifetime. I cannot let this chance pass me by, for once I find myself in total control of my destiny. These chances won�t pass me by. I ask that you do not destroy my chance, if you will not work with me let me know and let me move on with my life but do not destroy me. I am a family man and this is an opportunity to provide them with new opportunities. There is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking.I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I have here is from you refusing to work with me and alerting my bank. I am the only one who knows of this situation, good fortune has blessed you with a luck that has planted you into the center of relevance in my life. Let�s share the blessing. If you find yourself able to work with me, contact me through this email account. If you give me positive signals, I will initiate this process towards a conclusion. I wish to inform you that should you contact me via official channels; I will deny knowing you and about this project. I repeat, I do not want you contacting me through my official phone lines nor do I want you contacting me through my official email account. Contact me only through the numbers I will provide for you and also through this email address. I do not want any direct link between you and myself. My official lines are not secured lines as they are periodically monitored to assess our level of customer care in line with our Total Quality Management Policy.Please observe this instruction religiously. Please, again, note that I am a family man, I have a wife and children. I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences, but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking clients. Do not betray my confidence. Mr. Kevin Garforth.

If you have been involved or around fundraising with schools or nonprofit organizations for any length of time, then you are probably familiar with coupon books or discount cards. Even though millions have been sold throughout the years, we continue to hear the same complaints: the coupon is in the other car or purse, or, the coupon isn't good in my area. While the product was great, it just wasn't very user-friendly. Thank goodness for technology!
A digital coupon book for your smartphone. Because nobody leaves home without their phone, you will always have an abundance of savings choices right in the palm of your hand.
The MyEats® app has more than 20 of your favorite fast food restaurant chains on it. Each of them is making generous "free" offers to encourage consumers to support your school or nonprofit group (click here to see participating restaurant chains and their offers). Notice that we didn't say "discount". That is because every restaurant chain is offering "free items" with your purchase. Many of them even offer more than one coupon.
What is better than using a coupon to get a free item at your favorite fast food restaurant? Using the same coupon a second, third, or twenty-third time! With those old coupon books, once you used the coupon it was gone. Not so with the MyEats® app. Your MyEats® app has an expiration date of one year from the date of your purchase. You can use each coupon over and over again, once per day, for an entire year. So not just a "free item" once, but every time you choose to eat at your favorite fast food restaurant. That could add up to some serious savings.
The MyEats® app, good across the nation, offers hundreds of dollars in savings for one full year. Plus, by your purchase, you are supporting programs of excellence right here in America. Start enjoying your MyEats® app today.

It seems appropriate that the first content on this site should be a review of a book about the reformation. "The Reformation" was published in 2007 but as usual, it took its time getting to South African shores. I picked my copy up at CUM Books a few months ago (sorry) for only R20 so it was quite a bargain.
Nichols has a way of retelling history which draws you in. The book follows a sort of chronological/geographical approach, beginning with a chapter justifying the book and its contents. He then moves on through Luther, Zwingli and Calvin but has interesting chapters on the Anabaptists (which I don't think he handled that well).
I particularly enjoyed his sixth and seventh chapters entitled "A King and a Divorce" about "The Anglicans and the British Reformation" and "Men in Black" about "The Puritans and the British Reformation" as I was largely ignorant of the history of the period. The surprise is the last chapter about "The Untold Story of Women and the Reformation" about women like Lady Grey or, Wibrandis Rosenblatt, a woman who had four husbands all of whom played significant roles in the reformation.
Nichols does a brilliant job of writing simply enough for anyone to read. It wasn't so dense as to lose you and force you to reread paragraphs so as not to miss anything and yet it was dense enough that it was well worth the read.
The author also works at bringing the reformation into our context (which may have had some impact on my enjoyment of the book). I would gladly recommend this book to anyone wanting to get an overview of the reformation and I enjoyed Nichol's writing so much that I've just bought his books on Martin Luther (this may still be on sale at CUM for R40) and Jonathan Edwards (I got this one from Good Neighbours).

McDonald's breakfast hours to be extended in every single restaurant next week
Students and hungover people rejoice, you will soon be able to pick up a McMuffin a lot later into the the day after a successful trial led McDonald's to raise the cut-off time for its breakfast menu
by James Andrews, http://www.facebook.com/jameswritesmoney/Earlier this year McDonald's decided to see what would happen if it extended the breakfast hours at some of its restaurants .
Instead of rotating the menu boards on the dot of 10:30, cutting hungry and hungover customers off from hash browns, McMuffins and pancakes, it would let them keep ordering until 11am.
And - in fantastic news for fans of breakfasts wraps with hash browns in them - the company has now said it will roll out the trial everywhere.
Michelle Graham-Clare, McDonald’s UK cice president food & marketing, said: "We all understand the pain of missing out on a McMuffin by a matter of minutes.
"We have listened to our customers’ pleas and are delighted to extend breakfast serving time until 11am, particularly as we head into the festive season when we see a rush of latecomers searching for those all-important hash browns."
The new system kicks off on 20 November, 2019 - that's Wednesday next week.
And if you're thinking of ordering from home, the extra 30 minutes means you have until 10:45am to order through Uber Eats.
