Hi!
I'm new here, but I have used resources from the project for a while.
I'm planning to make an addon or a new program with less comunication overhead than OemGateway HTTP request system, since I'm using EmonCMS for monitoring some system via GPRS, and I need to reduce data traffic to minimum, since I have to pay per Kb.
I'm planning to use CoAP protocol:
Using the CoAPthon, Python implementation:
https://github.com/Tanganelli/CoAPthon
Have anyone tried something like this?
Have a nice day!!!!
Re: OemGateway with less overhead
Have you tought on gzip compression on http, easy configured on the web server ?
Re: OemGateway with less overhead
I am already doing this (kind of) using MQTT. I have an MQTT broker which my Emon nodes publish to, and then a script running on a 24/7 server which monitors the MQTT feeds and forwards them to EmonCMS using the standard HTTP API.
Check out the emoncms target in mqttwarn (https://github.com/jpmens/mqttwarn#emoncms) for details of the forwarding script.
Re: OemGateway with less overhead
@chaveiro: do you mean gzip compression on the client side, server side or both?
Is emoncms.org already configured to send gzip request?
Thanks
Walter
Re: OemGateway with less overhead
Forget about my questions! I don't need to download/upload anything from/to EmonCMS that would require a compression.
I think that the server responses count more in term of data traffic than the data I upload to EmonCMS. Maybe the length of these responses could be reduced. However, I quickly checked with the Mozilla HttpRequester extension and they look "fine" to me. I have seen other servers that send back much more data.
For those interested, I have done a few tests with a UMTS/3G USB stick (http://openenergymonitor.org/emon/node/11003) and I was reaching 302 MB/month with 10 keys every 15 secs.

Re: OemGateway with less overhead
Hi!
Sumnerboy, I'll give a look to your work ;)
I'm progressing with the CoAP implementation, since it uses UDP, it han't got any reply needs, and also has less overhead than UDP.
Currently I have reduced the data payload from around a 1kb for query to less than 200 bytes.
The next step is to modify OemGateway for adding a Buffer module that works via CoAP. I'll keep you informed.
Re: OemGateway with less overhead
If you would be interested in upgrading to emonHub I would be happy to help you with a CoAP reporter (called dispatchers in OEMG). emonHub superseeds OEMG and adds extra reliability and flexibility to what was a superb software. Plus it's actively supported and developed.
I did look at this when you first posted and found it interesting, although I wasn't sure of the demand for it due to the MQTT following also providing a method with less overhead. I saw the server implementation as the harder part and wasn't really able to assist with that but the client looked relatively simple (famous last words) and so if you want some assistance with an emonHub implementation let me know.

Two posts in a day… but this was a completely different topic.
I’m beginning work on my first Leopard-only application, and so I’m trying out garbage collection. Sure, I’m excited about garbage collection. Sure, I have no great love of keeping track of my retain counts and autorelease pools. But….
It feels really, really weird to not release my variables. I tend to rely on autorelease a lot. I know there are some disadvantages, but I like the fact that it notes your intention when you allocate the memory. Consider this:
NSMenuItem *mi = [[[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"" action:NULL keyEquivalent:@""] autorelease];
[menu addItem:mi];
versus
NSMenuItem *mi = [[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"" action:NULL keyEquivalent:@""];
[menu addItem:mi];
[mi release];
It’s not the extra line of code that bothers me. It’s the fact that the release is separated, such that if you move the assignment of mi into another method, you have to remember to move the release as well (and and that point, you’d have to switch to autorelease). Remember that there can be a lot more code between the alloc and the addItem. This makes the Extract Method refactor more complicated. autorelease makes this easy, and at very small cost. Beyond that, it emphasizes at the init that I won’t be holding onto this memory myself. Of course that’s also implied by the use of a temporary variable, but the point remains. It also helps me find memory leaks more easily. Since I always do it this way, I know that if I’ve used alloc on a local variable with no autorelease, I’ve almost certainly got a bug.
Of course the point of this posting is that my long-developed opinions on this matter are now irrelevant. You just assign mi any old way you like and it’ll get garbage collected when appropriate. Great. Easy. Who could not love that?
But I am having a very hard time getting used to not having an autorelease at the end of that initialization. There’s an alloc on a local variable with no autorelease. Bug! It’s hard for me even to type it; I always lead with three open brackets….
I’ll get over it.

PSALMS 130
A psalm written for people going up to the temple to worship.
1 Yahweh, I have great troubles, so I call out to you.
2 Yahweh, hear me
while I call out to you to have mercy on me!
3 Yahweh, if you kept a record of the sins that we have committed,
not one of us would escape from being condemned and punished!
4 But you forgive us,
with the result that we have an awesome respect for you.
5 Yahweh has said that he would help me;
I trust what he said, and I wait eagerly for him to do that.
6 I wait for Yahweh to help me
more than watchmen wait for the morning to come;
yes, I wait more eagerly than they do!
7 You, my fellow Israelites, confidently expect that Yahweh will bless us.
He will bless us because he has mercy on us,
and he is very willing to save us.
8 It is he who will save us Israelite people from being punished for all the sins that we have committed.

Node.js Setup
Step 1
Run this command to see if you already have node on your computer and if so, what version. Windows (Command prompt), Mac/Linux (Terminal).
node --version
Step 2
If either it shows you do not have node installed yet, or do not have the latest stable version, navigate to nodejs.org and install the latest version.
At the time of this release, 8.11.3 LTS is the latest stable version which I'd recommend.
Step 3
Re-run the node --version
command to verify the correct version of Node.js has installed. Windows (Command prompt), Mac/Linux (Terminal).
Step 4
We are going to create our first Node.js application:
- Create a new folder and name it my-nodejs-project using the command:
mkdir my-nodejs-project
- Move to the folder you just created
cd my-nodejs-project
- Now that you are in the folder my-nodejs-project we are going to initialize our Node.js project with the command
npm init
Vm-Create-Project
- Let's create our index.js file:
- Write the following code in your index.js file:
console.log("Using Node.js for my Blockchain Program");
You can open the file with any text editor like Notepad (Windows), TextEdit (MAC OS), or any specialized code editor like VSCode, Sublime or ATOM.
- Now let's test our application using the command
node index.js

Congratulations
You just created your first Node.js application. You're good to go 🙌


BRIDE OF CHUCKY RATING: 7.5 / 10 --> Re-watchable
For more reviews and trivia, go to http://surf.to/joblo
Chucky's never gonna die, and neither is this ongoing series of sequels dedicated to the "good guy" toy from hell! Hong Kong director Ronny Yu tackles this fourth part with stylish gusto, and adds an extra spice in for effect: a bride for chucky, bien sur. Does Chucky really get lucky in this one? You bet!!!
PLOT: Chucky the killer doll is resurrected by his buxom ex-girlfriend Meg because she believes that the spirit within Chucky, her real ex-boyfriend mass murderer Charles Lee Ray, will come back to life and marry her. Unfortunately for her, Chucky the wonder-knife has other plans, and decides to bring her along as his rubber doll companion. The slashing duo's plan is to retrieve an amulet that will allow their spirits to rejoin physical human vehicles. Murder, mayhem and all-around gruesomeness ensues.
CRITIQUE: Entertaining, funny, campy sequel scores points for originality, humour, great murder scenes, and the ever-loveable personality of Chucky the psycho-doll! As sexist and rude as ever, Chucky steals every scene in which he makes an appearance, with his beautifully psychotic smile, and the addition of a handful of new murders to his rap sheet. Just as cool is his sidekick Tiffany (with a splash of romance and sensitivity tossed in), who actually manages to give white trash a good name! The slick animatronics, the hip dialogue, the myriad of in-jokes paying homage to other horror film contemporaries make this movie very enjoyable, while allowing your brain to take the evening off for drinks and a rest.
Not to mention the wonderful performance set forth by Jennifer's Tilly's breasts who do a superb job of blending the character of the film with the essence of her character. Her cans have done wonders before, but this wonderful performance by her boobs is one to truly cherish and consider "for your consideration". Her rack is sizeable, luscious, delectable and plump in almost every scene, and manages to portray every range of emotion from gregarity and jolliness to melancholy and surprise. Her cleavage also makes an excellent showing, and I'm not afraid to say this, almost brought me to tears in one particular scene.
Having said that, the no-name-big-breasted-standard-horror-film-girlfriend was quite a disappointment in my esteem, as was the washboard-stomach-cardboard-cutout-boyfriend, who looked like a 32-year old attempting to play a teenager (Perfectly cast for "Beverly Hills 90210"). The soundtrack was also extremely lame for a movie of its revived genre, but the few Rob Zombie songs did manage to soothe my musical hunger just a tad. All in all, this film is a good time at the movie theatre for all those who want to see a movie about an evil rubber doll who spews crude and foul remarks, the girl doll that loves him, and the party of bloody bodies that get in their way.
Little Known Facts about this film and its stars: The first time that the full cinematic trailer for Gus Van Sant's remake of PSYCHO was shown in the theatres was before this film. Keep a close eye on the first scene, which offers a wink of the eye to many of its horror sequel competitors, including Jason, Mike Myers and Freddy Kreuger. Screenwriter Don Mancini has a part in writing all four of the CHILD'S PLAY films. He also co-executive produced this one. This film was previously titled CHILD'S PLAY 4, CHILD'S PLAY 4: BRIDE OF CHUCKY, CHUCKY and CHUCKY AND HIS BRIDE. Brad Dourif did the voice of Chucky in all four CHILD'S PLAY films, and also portrayed the original spirit of Chucky, mass murderer Charles Lee Ray in the first film.
Review Date: October 21, 1998 Director: Ronny Yu Writer: Don Mancini Producer: Paul Gertz, Grace Gilroy, David Kirschner, Laura Moskowitz Actors: Jennifer Tilly as Meg/Tiffany Brad Dourif as Chucky (voice) John Ritter as Warren Genre: Horror Year of Release: 1998

LETTER: Californians flock to Nevada
by John R. Stites II HendersonConsidering that I migrated to Nevada from California in 2009, let me give the 50,000 some fairly new California arrivals some advice (“For relocating Californians, Silver rush on,” Monday Review-Journal).
You have come to a state with the potential for greatness. Leave your leftist political ideas in California. What you see happening in California is a direct result of the apathy and ignorance of voters. What was arguably the greatest state in the union has become a Third-World nation of excessive gifts to those undeserving and leftist politics.
Those who abandon California likely left for the same reason I did: A leftist Legislature; too many illegals; too many taxes (and the taxes in place are extreme); and a failed, neurotic Democratic leadership that is paid way too much for the failed job they do.
Now the punchline. That same failed, leftist Democratic leadership is currently in place in our state. I want help from these new Nevadans in voting them out. If that is not the goal of those leaving California for Nevada, then get out of this state. We did not come here to be another California.

THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER A film review by Chris Palmer Copyright 1990 Chris Palmer
I went to see THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER this weekend and was totally impressed by how wonderful the animation was. In characterization and plot tension, it wasn't up to the standards of THE LITTLE MERMAID, but it was very funny and quite exciting.
This movie was a showcase of almost every type of animation possible. Extensive use of multi-plane cameras, roto-scoping (Cody's mother and the rangers), and, best of all, some amazing computer animation. By creating computer models of vehicles, buildings, and backgrounds, the animators were allowed a greater degree of freedom. With the exception of the opening scenes of Ayer's Rock, the message-sent-around the world, and the New York flying scenes, all of the computer animation was rotoscoped by the animators so there was no discontinuity between the hand-drawn cels and the computer aided cells. All you see is amazingly complex, full-perspective motion. McLeach's vehicle has to be seen to be believed. Some computer animation was also present in the short feature, "The Prince and the Pauper," notably the snow (quite nice) and several shots of the King's wagon.
I'm sorry if this has been a strictly technical review so far. This is a very good children's movie, but I think anyone should enjoy it. However, if you are cynical or find too many faults in the plot, you can always fall back on looking at the pretty pictures.
Now, on to the movie itself...
THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER is a sequel to THE RESCUERS (Duh). It is about a young Australian boy named Cody who is kidnapped by the evil poacher, McLeach, who wants him to reveal where the nest of the giant eagle is located. Through the R.A.S. (Rescuers Aid Society) network, Cody's plight is relayed to New York and Bianca (Zsa Zsa Gabor) and Bernard (Bob Newhart) are chosen to fly to Australia to rescue him. Air travel is courtesy of Wilbur (John Candy) an albatross (brother to Orville of the first film). Once in Australia, there are aided by Jack?John? (drat) (voice by Tristan Rogers), a cross between Crocodile Dundee and Indiana Jones. Along the way, they encounter many different Australian animals, some animal-like and some characterized.
High Points: o The eagle, the flying scene brought tears to my eyes. o McLeach, his pet lizard, and his vehicle. o The animation in general (see above) o The scenery. The Australian locations were a welcome relief from generic cartoon locations. It gave the film a much stronger sense of reality.
Low Points: o Bianca and Bernard were OK, but they were probably the most boring characters in the film. o I liked the ending, but my nephew and several other children in the audience were left hanging a bit (no spoilers, but the movie doesn't show Cody's reunion with his mother or the release of some of McLeach's animals).
Rating (1..10): THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER - 9 "The Prince and the Pauper" - 10 -- Christopher M. Palmer Intergraph Corporation Internet: b14!abulafia!palmerc UUCP : ...uunet!ingr!b14!abulafia!palmerc

Qualifying for Euros could top 2016, says Gareth Bale
Gareth Bale believes Wales reaching the European Championship next summer could trump the achievement of playing at Euro 2016.
Wales ended a 58-year wait to play at a major tournament in 2016 and eventually reached the semi-finals in France under Chris Coleman.
Over three years on and Ryan Giggs’ young side will qualify for Euro 2020 by beating Hungary at home on Tuesday.
“The experience of qualifying for the Euros was massive,” Bale said ahead of the winner-takes-all clash in Cardiff.
“It was something I’d never done before and to do it again might be a bit more impressive.
“The youngsters have come in and done really well.
“We’ve got a good mix of youth and experience and it’s important they step up to the plate, which they have been doing.
“We need to use our experiences to help the youngsters come through it.”
No problems and I’m ready to go for Tuesday
Bale had been out for a month with a calf problem before Wales’ 2-0 win in Azerbaijan on Saturday that, coupled with Slovakia’s defeat in Croatia, put qualification destiny in their own hands.
The Real Madrid forward played for an hour before making way for the returning Aaron Ramsey and says he is fully fit to take on Hungary at the Cardiff City Stadium.
“I’m ready. I hadn’t played in four weeks so it was important to get 60 minutes into my legs and get some match sharpness,” Bale said.
“We spoke at the start of the week about trying to get 60 minutes and hopefully being a couple (of goals) up before I came off.
“So it worked out well, no problems and I’m ready to go for Tuesday.”
Bale was injured and a helpless spectator in the stands when Wales missed out on a place at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
Wales lost a play-off decider to the Republic of Ireland in Cardiff and the 30-year-old vividly remembers the pain of that defeat.
“We know the euphoria of qualifying for the Euros and what it feels like to miss out on qualifying for the World Cup,” Bale said.
“So we can use them to our advantage. We don’t want to be feeling like we did after the Ireland game.
“We will push and push not to feel like that again, because it’s not a feeling you want in the dressing room after the game.
“We will use all our experience to try and navigate our way through.
“The most important thing is we haven’t lost since we went to Hungary (in June) and we’ve been on that upward trajectory.
“The football has been really good and we have to keep riding that wave.”
Joe Allen, suspended for the Azerbaijan win, is set to return at the expense of Joe Morrell in midfield, even though the on-loan Lincoln youngster acquitted himself well in Baku.
Giggs’ main selection dilemma revolves around Ramsey and whether the Juventus midfielder is fit enough to play 90 minutes.
Harry Wilson could start after scoring in Baku, with Ramsey possibly used from the bench again.
“Experience counts for a lot,” Giggs said.
“But what I’ve seen in the young players, coming in and being fearless, they help each other.
“The older players can help the young ones and vice versa.”


Visual Discovery of Communication Patterns in Email Networks
An analysis of key players in a large and small email network.
In the age of social networks, it is very popular to analyze Twitter and Facebook to detect relationships and communities and to discover how information flows between groups. However, both Facebook and Twitter are examples of “performed” social networks: because a user has full control over who he or she “friends” or “follows,” he can artificially create a persona that he wishes the outside world to perceive him as. In fact, it has been well-studied that expressions of taste typically exclude the most critical groups to communication flows, and that social networks are merely the expressions of performed taste (Liu, 2007).
Email, on the other hand, is used in every facet of modern life and typically includes and aggregates facets of ourselves that would otherwise be segregated — for example, professional and personal personas. Because we spend so much time writing, reading, and responding to email, it has become integrated into a communication fabric that far exceeds other media that may get more analytical attention like text messaging or social networks. Email, therefore, can be seen to embed a natural communication network, from which we can extract rich insights about actual communications and influences within a single ego network — the email inbox of a single user — without the bias of taste performance.
In this paper, we will explore the visual analysis of two personal email networks, one from each of the authors, where one network is extremely large in terms of the number of nodes (email addresses) and the other network is extremely large in terms of the number of edges (cliquish, highly-connected email). We hope to show that if a user can visualize their own networks, they will better understand the dynamic nature of their communication in terms of key players, communities, and gaps in communication. Through such visual understanding, users may be better able to respond to and manage the constant flow of email messages meaningfully.
We will use Gephi (Gephi, 2010) to visualize email networks that have been extracted from mbox
files via a Python tool written by the authors called tribe
, which serializes the network into GraphML (Brandes, 2010). Gephi is widely used for visual exploration of networks (Bastian, 2009) and includes many features for the statistical analysis of small to medium networks (McSweeney, 2009). Work of note demonstrates the analysis of dynamic network connections within Twitter conversations (Bruns, 2012), which shows how Gephi might be used for networks whose topology can rapidly shift, as in email. As part of our analysis we will critique Gephi and contrast it to NodeXL (Smith, 2010), another popular tool for visual network analysis.

Note: This post is intended for Web Developers who is trying out the tutorial for CouchApp in http://couchapp.org/page/getting-started tutorial.
If you are interested in this post, most likely you are a guy who is interested trying a No-SQL database from Apache called CouchDB . No wonder many developers are leaning toward No-SQL databases because of its ease of use and scalability feature.
With regards to the tutorial, when you are about to deploy the app in the part 3 "Push your CouchApp", there is a problem when you enter this in the command line:
couchapp push testdb
you will probably get an error like this:
E:\couchapp\helloworld>couchapp push testdb
2013-03-02 18:27:37 [CRITICAL] {"error":"unauthorized","reason":"You are not a server admin."
The reason behind this is the tutorial failed to point out that "testdb" is the environment name on which some configuration should be used.
When you specify an environment name, couchapp push command will try to look at either .couchapprc or .couchapp.conf for the definition of such environment name. The default contents of the .couchapprc is just an empty JSON setting {} . One reason why the push "fails" is, you might have set admin password in the http://localhost:5984/_utils/ admin. Now you have to define that environment setting and set the user/pass you had specified in the _utils admin.
Possible Solution
1. Specify a default environment setting
{
"env":{
"default":{"db":"http://username:password@localhost:5984/testdb"}
}
}
when you specify a default environment setting you can now just call couchapp push
when you dont specify an environment setting, it will just load the "default"
2. Specify the settings for "testdb" environment
{
"env":{
"testdb":{"db":"http://username:password@localhost:5984/testdb"}
}
}
that way you can use the couchapp push testdb command
Hope it helps!


Enumerable#map
Map Manipulates Collections
11 July 2015
The map method comes courtesy of the Enumerables mix-in, which provides collection classes with methods to search, sort, or traverse the collection. The class itself must provide an .each method. Whereas the Array class supports the .map method (and also offers the destructive form .map!), in contrast the Hash class does not. Here is the definition of .map in the Ruby 2.2.0 docs:
The .map method is straightforward: if a block is given, the map method creates a new collection from the source collection in accordance with what the block specifies. If no block is given, .map returns an Enumerator. What does that mean?
At this stage in our Ruby education, I think that question is more perplexing than discerning what map does -- which is easy. The Enumerator is a class object that allows both internal and external iteration. Makes sense, but what does that mean.
It appears that the Enumerator could be described as an interim index generated from the method which gets passed into the next method (or object?). They contain information that can be used to iterate through a collection.
Going back to .map, why use it? Fire up IRB and try this comparative example:
> a=[1,2,3,4]
> a.each { |i| i += 5}
> amap = a.map { |i| i += 5}
You will notice that although the .each block executes without error, the effect is lost. Array a keeps its original contents. To achieve the desired effect of incrementing the members of array a you must employ .map, or .map! if you wish to overwrite the original array a.


The difficulty of establishing publication dates for books from late Ottoman *Bilād al-Shām*
Original post (2015-07-23)
I am currently preparing my thesis for publication and the process of revision, I am again turning to Ottoman legal texts and their translations. Today I want to come briefly back to a question I have extensively dealt with in my thesis: The difficulty of dating printed sources from the late Ottoman Bilād al-Shām. Consider the following image of the imprint for the second volume of Nawfal Niʿmat Allah Nawfal’s translation of Ottoman laws edited by Khalīl Khūrī and published by al-Maṭbaʿa al-Adabiyya in Beirut1.
The date of publication is clearly stated as the year 1301. The calendar of this dating could either be Muslim 1301 (hijrī), which would translate to 1883/84 Gregorian, or Ottoman 1301 (mālī), which began on 13 March 1885. So far, so common and without further ado—and I strongly suspect without further thought—the world’s libraries catalogued the book as having been publised in 1883. The content of the book as well as the publishing house—al-Maṭbaʿa al-Adabiyya was a venture by Khalīl Sarkīs2, the Greek Orthodox owner of Beirut’s most successful periodical and only daily newspaper Lisān al-Ḥāl—raise the probability for mālī reckoning.
Then I came across announcements of its publication in the Beiruti press. Both Lisān al-Ḥāl and Thamarāt al-Funūn ran adverts for the new publication on their front pages in May 1887.3 Against the backdrop of the book’s publisher printing announcements in his own newspaper it now seemed likely that the second volume had inherited the date of publication from the first volume and was indeed printed only in 1887.
Unlike the first volume, scans of the second cannot be found online, but I was lucky to locate a copy at the library of the American University of Beirut. To my surprise the volume carried an ownership stamp on its last page:
It reads in French and Arabic:
Librairie Universelle 1883 Beyrout
li-l-maktaba al-jāmiʿa li-Khalīl al-Khūrī 1883 Bayrūt
The stamp seemingly indicates that the copy at AUB once belonged to the editor of the book, Khalīl al-Khūrī, himself. The stamp also records a Gregorian date: 1883. If this was the date of acquisition, the stamp could prove that the volume was indeed published in 1301 hijrī. Going through my research notes, however, it appeared that the Librairie Universelle was a publishing press and bookstore rather than a library run by the brothers Amīn and Khalīl al-Khūrī in Beirut. It is unclear when they had established the printing press, but at least by 1887 they had adopted the more common Arabic term for a publishing press: al-maṭbaʿa al-jāmiʿ.4 But why would a bookstore stamp its merchandise?
For the moment this question must remain as open as the opening date of the endeavour.
update 2016-02-26
I was lucky to have a one-month trial access to Gale’s new “Early Arabic Printed Books from the British Library” platform and eagerly browsed and searched for books from Beirut and Damascus. They hold a number of Niqūlā Efendi Naqqāsh’s translations of Ottoman laws. One of them, a translation of Orhan Vahan Efendi’s comment on the Commercial Code,5 carried another ownership stamp:
Librairie générale
A. Sader Beyrouth
al-maktaba al-ʿumūmiyya
li-Ibrāhīm Ṣādir Bayrūt
But this time we are better informed about the publisher al-Maktaba al-ʿUmūmiyya. This publishing house and bookstore was set up by Ibrāhīm Efendi Ṣādir in 1863. Soon the company also included his sons and operated under “Ibrāhim Ṣādir wa-Awlāduhu”. As “Sader” the company is still active and the leading publisher of Lebanese legal compendia. It seems that most of its operations have shifted online these days.
update 2016-10-12
In May this year, I participated in a conference titled “Books in Motion” in Beirut and had a chance to finally meet Hala Auji and listen to her talk on “Visual Translations: The Shifting Material Dimensions of 19th-Century Printed Editions of Arabic Classics” — which was based on research conducted for her recently published book.6 Her talk focussed on the gradual shift from manuscript to print culture between Cairo, Beirut, and India and its visual aspects. Talking about the continuous popularity of al-Mutanabbī’s Dīwān and the plethora of editions published during the late 19th century, she projected the image of an edition held at Harvard’s Widener Library. According to Hala Auji this Dīwān was printed in Calcutta but the frontispiece carries the same stamp of Ibrāhīm Ṣādir’s al-Maktaba al-ʿUmūmiyya:
It is not entirely clear how Auji arrived at the conclusion that this edition was printed in Calcutta. Comparing the frontispieces it seems that a copy at University of Michigan, freely available through HathiTrust, is indeed the same edition. Its final page (292) states that Shaykh ʿUmar al-Rāfiʿī confirms the veracity of this print edition that was completed in 1283 aH [1866]. According to Ilyān Sarkīs’ union catalogue of Arabic printed works (Muʿjam al-maṭbūʿat al-ʿarabiyya wa-l-muʿarraba) this edition of 292 pages was printed on a lithographic printing press in Cairo.7

Flink Backward - The Apache Flink Retrospective
November 3, 2021 - Johannes MoserIt has now been a month since the community released Apache Flink 1.14 into the wild. We had a comprehensive look at the enhancements, additions, and fixups in the release announcement blog post, and now we will look at the development cycle from a different angle. Based on feedback collected from contributors involved in this release, we will explore the experiences and processes behind it all.
A retrospective on the release cycle #
From the team, we collected emotions that have been attributed to points in time of the 1.14 release cycle:
The overall sentiment seems to be quite good.
We looked at the origin of these emotions and analyzed what went well and what could be improved. We also incorporated some feedback gathered from the community.
Problems faced #
No release is perfect, and the community is constantly looking to improve.
Apache Flink has active contributors from around the globe, many of whom do not speak English as a first language. The community is still ironing out processes for delivering high-quality documentation and blog posts from a content perspective. It is a work in progress but we have contributors focusing on this component.
Each Flink release is built with the help of hundreds of contributors, each working on different parts of the project. Changes to one module may affect others in ways that are not always obvious. To maintain quality, the community supports an expansive test suite. Invariably, some tests are found to be flaky. Whenever we discover a test issue, the community opens a blocker issue that we must resolve before the next release. In practice, this leads to contributors triaging most test instabilities towards the end of each release cycle. From now on, we want to be more mindful of these failures and prioritize them when discovered.
Finally, the community pushed the planned feature freeze for 1.14 by two weeks. Two weeks is an improvement from previous release cycles, but we hope to continue improving this metric for 1.15.
Things enjoyed #
The implementation of some features, such as buffer debloating and fine-grained resource management, went smoothly. Though a few issues are now popping up as people begin using them in production, it is satisfying to see an engineering effort go according to plan.
We also said goodbye to some components, the old table planner and integrated Mesos support. As any developer will tell you, there’s nothing better than deleting old code and reducing complexity.
What we want to achieve through process changes #
Transparency - let the community participate #
When approaching a release, usually a couple of weeks after the previous release has been done, we set up bi-weekly meetings for the community to discuss any issues regarding the release. The usefulness of those meetings varied a lot, and so we started to track the efforts in the Apache Flink Confluence wiki.
We came up with a system to label the current states of each feature: “independent”, “won’t make it”, “very unlikely”, “will make it”, “done”, and “done done”. We introduced the “done done” state since we lacked a shared understanding of the definition of done. To qualify for “done done”, the feature is manually tested by someone not involved in the implementation. Additionally, there must exist comprehensive documentation that enables users to use the feature.
After each meeting, we provided updates on the mailing list and created a corresponding burn-down chart. Those efforts have well been received by our contributors, although they might still require some improvements.
The meeting used to only be for those driving the primary efforts, but we opened it up to the whole community for this release. While nobody ended up joining, we will continue to make the meetings open to everyone.
Stability - reduce building and testing pain #
At one point, as we were coming close to the feature freeze, the stability of the master branch became quite unstable. Although we have encountered this issue in the past, building and testing Flink under such conditions was not ideal.
As a result, we focused on reducing stability issues, and the release managers have tried to organize and manage this effort. In future development cycles, the whole community needs to focus on the stability of the master branch. There are already improvements in the making, and they will hopefully enhance the experience of contributing significantly.
Documentation - make it user-friendly #
Coming back to Apache traditions, most of the documentation (if any) was still being pushed after the feature freeze. As mentioned before, documentation is required to achieve the level of “done done”. Going forward, we will keep more of an eye on pushing documentation earlier in the development process. Apache Flink is an amazing piece of software that can solve so many problems, but we can do so much more in improving the user experience and introducing it to a wider audience.
API consistency - a timeless, joyful experience #
The issue of API consistency was not caused by the 1.14 release, but popped up during the development cycle nevertheless, including a bigger discussion on the mailing list. While we tried to be transparent about the stability guarantees of an API (there are no guarantees across major versions), this was not made very clear or easy to find. Since many users rely on PublicEvolving APIs (due to a lack of Public API additions), this resulted in problems for downstream projects.
Moving forward, we will document more clearly what the guarantees are and introduce a process for promoting PublicEvolving APIs. This might involve generating a report on any removed/modified PublicEvolving APIs during the release cycle so that downstream projects can prepare for the changes.
Some noteworthy items #
The first iteration for the buffer debloat feature was done in a Hackathon.
Our Apache Flink 1.14 Release wiki page has 167 historic versions. For comparison, FLIP 147 (one of the most active FLIPs) has just 76.
With FLINK-2491, we closed the third most watched issue in the Apache Flink Jira. This makes sense since FLINK-2491 was created 6 years ago (August 6, 2015). The second oldest issue was created in 2017.
:heart:
An open source community is more than just working on software. Apache Flink is the perfect example of software that is collaborated on in all parts of the world. The active mailing list, the discussions on FLIPs, and the interactions on Jira tickets all document how people work together to build something great. We should never forget that.
In the meantime, the community is already working towards Apache Flink 1.15. If you would like to become a contributor, please reach out via the dev mailing list. We are happy to help you find a ticket to get started on.

Watch: Wiz Khalifa Takes Latest DayToday Episode Into His Photo Shoot Goals + Wardrobe Changes
by Team SOHHTaylor Gang leader Wiz Khalifa is keeping fans updated on his daily grinds. The hip-hop star has come through with his latest “DayToday” episode showing the behind the scenes antics from a recent photo shoot. Watch and comment below!


This work presents DDJ, an algorithmic debugger for Java. The main advantage of DDJ with respect to previous algorithmic debuggers is its scalability. DDJ has a new architecture based on the use of cache memories that allows it to scale both in time and memory. In addition, it includes new techniques that allow the debugger to start the debugging session even before the execution tree has been produced. We present the new architecture, and describe the main features of this debugger together with a usage scenario.

BESIEGED A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1999 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): ***
A romantic musical mystery?
Although Bernardo Bertolucci's BESIEGED doesn't fit into any standard genre, perhaps that's the closest way to peg it. It is a romance, albeit a highly tentative one, and it's based on a mystery, although one that's transparently obvious. As a film overflowing with music and containing almost no dialog, it might be considered a musical, although the leads in this 2-person drama don't sing.
Opening to haunting African rhythms, the story starts in Africa. The serenely beautiful Thandie Newton plays Shandurai, a medical student who treats deformed young patients. On her way to see her husband, a gifted teacher, army trucks zoom past her. They're going to put her husband in a political prison, which appears to be tantamount to a death sentence.
As she watches him being taken away, she loses all bladder control and urinates profusely. This surprising image only a few minutes into the film leads us to believe that the picture may go for maximum shock, but, quite the contrary, the film is so placid it will likely be sleep inducing for those who don't like its purposely oblique storytelling.
With its strong sense of place and the importance it places on visual narration, the picture has the effect of a haunting trance. The only recent picture that comes close in tone to it is THREE SEASONS, which is slightly better.
After the African prelude, the story skips forward to Italy, where the reserved but persistent Shandurai works as a maid to finance her way through medical school.  David Thewlis, best known for avant-garde work under director Mike Leigh's tutelage, plays Mr. Kinsky in a performance that keeps his emotions in complete check, save a couple of scenes.
Mr. Kinsky falls head over heels in love with his maid, which displeases her, albeit not quite enough to cause her to leave. As soon as she hears of his affection, she rebuffs him. He asks her what would change her mind. "You get my husband out of jail," she yells back at him. Since he didn't realize she was married, he recoils, and the movie seems to be over with before it ever really begins.
The rest of the story concerns the modest mystery of how he comes to help her. Shandurai, who is otherwise bright, seems to be the last one to solve this mystery. The audience can figure out what is happening immediately, perhaps even before it happens.
This is all of no consequence. One can either enjoy the movie for its music and images, or one can't enjoy it at all. The African folk melodies and songs are interspersed with lush piano sonatas. Every few minutes someone says something briefly, and then the music resumes. The camerawork and editing are other joys or distractions, depending on your inclination. Points are emphasized, not in words, but by jump cuts, fast zooms, and slow motion.
A peaceful and beautiful picture, it does have its flaws. Chief among these are the missed opportunities between Shandurai and Mr. Kinsky. One would expect the movie to burst with sexual tension, but, with a couple of exceptions, Bertolucci seems oblivious to the possibilities.
The other problem with the movie is its length. It would have made a perfect 30-minute short film, but, as a full-length motion picture, it feels stretched almost to the breaking point.
BESIEGED runs 1:30. The film is in English with some dialog in Italian with English subtitles. It is rated R for brief nudity and sexuality and would be fine for teenagers.

Eight-year-old girl donates 215 advent calendars to food bank
Let’s all take Holly Manges’ lead when it comes to the spirit of giving this festive season.
Holly, eight, has decided to help children less fortunate than herself this Christmas – by collecting more than 200 advent calendars to donate to a food bank.
Holly loves Christmas – and the chocolate tucked away inside those advent calendars – and wanted to make sure that other kids could enjoy the season as much as she does.
Holly, of Cotford St Luke, said: ‘I decided on advent calendars because not all families can afford one at Christmas, and every child should look forward to it.
‘It makes me happy thinking of all the children who will now receive a calendar.’
Holly came up with the idea when she was tasked with earning her Charity badge at Brownies, and quickly asked her deputy headteacher at Cotford St Luke Primary School in Taunton, Somerset, for help.

She put up a poster at school asking classmates to donate calendars and within three weeks had collected 215.
She then donated all of these to the Trussell Trust Food Bank in Taunton so they could be handed out to kids whose parents can’t afford festive treats.
Holly’s dad Jamie, 46, said: ‘It just went manic. We were constantly tallying up these advent calendars.
‘Holly would come home from school and there’d be another five or ten left on the front doorstep.
‘We shared the appeal on Facebook and after that we had donations from Swindon, Worcester, and even as far as Scotland.
‘Local businesses and even complete strangers got involved and made donations. Holly was getting really excited.’
Eventually the family had to set a cut-off point for donations as they were receiving so many calendars. Holly had aimed for 50 at first, then 75, then just kept going until she had 215.
‘I think the food bank were a bit overwhelmed when we went down there with all 215 calendars,’ said Jamie.
‘We are really proud of her achievements, and I am sure the foodbank and the families will be very grateful at this time of year.’

Sue Weightman, manager of Taunton food bank, said: ‘We’re very grateful to Holly, and all the other children and groups across Taunton that have generously given vital donations to our food bank.
‘As the colder months close in, like many other food banks we’re approaching our busiest time of the year, so your donations make a huge difference.
‘We’d really encourage anyone considering following Holly’s lead to check what their local food bank is most in need of and donate as soon as possible, so volunteers have enough time to get what you’ve given out to local people in crisis.’


"I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out ok."
"I do not adopt softness towards others because I want to make them better."
"You can build your own things that other people can use. And once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again."
"I always advise people – Don’t wait! Do something when you are young, when you have nothing to lose, and keep that in mind."
"We he had everything to gain. And we figured even if we crash and burn, and lose everything, the experience will have been worth ten times the cost."
"The most precious thing that we all have with us is time."
"On the blue box: That was what we learned: was that us, too, we didn’t know much. We could build a little thing that could control a giant thing and that was an incredible lesson."
People who know what they’re talking about don’t need PowerPoint.
"Let’s go invent tomorrow rather than worrying about what happened yesterday."
"The doers are the major thinkers. The people that really create the things that change this industry are both the thinker and doer in one person."

"That’s why we started Apple, we said you know, we have absolutely nothing to lose. I was 20 years old at the time, Woz was 24-25, so we have nothing to lose. We have no families, no children, no houses. Woz had an old car.
"That’s been one of my mantras – focus and simplicity."
"The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have."
It’s more fun to be a pirate than to join the Navy.

Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPA)s are already available in our daily lives through our smart phones. Apple’s Siri, Google Assistant, Microsoft’s Cortana, Samsung’s Bixby and many more are helping us with various tasks, like shopping, playing music, setting schedule, sending messages, and offering answers to simple questions. Additionally, we equip our households with smart speakers like Amazon’s Alexa or Google Home to be available without the need to pick up explicit devices for these sorts of tasks or even control household appliances in our homes. As of today, there is no interoperability between the available IPA providers. Especially for exchanging learned user behaviors this is unlikely to happen at all.

Prepare reprexes for posting to GitHub issues, StackOverflow, or Slack snippets. What is a reprex
? It’s a reproducible example, as coined by Romain Francois.
Given R code on the clipboard, selected in RStudio, as an expression (quoted or not), or in a file …
rmarkdown::render()
,Get resulting runnable code + output as
gh
or so
, or asResult is returned invisibly, placed on the clipboard, and written to a file. Preview an HTML version in RStudio viewer or default browser.
Install from CRAN:
or get a development version from GitHub:
On Linux, you probably want to install xclip or xsel, so reprex can access the X11 clipboard. This is ‘nice to have’, but not mandatory. The usual sudo apt-get install
or sudo yum install
installation methods should work for both xclip and xsel.
Let’s say you copy this code onto your clipboard:
Then call reprex()
, where the default target venue is GitHub:
A nicely rendered HTML preview will display in RStudio’s Viewer (if you’re in RStudio) or your default browser otherwise.
The relevant bit of GitHub-flavored Markdown is ready to be pasted from your clipboard:
Here’s what that Markdown would look like rendered in a GitHub issue:
Anyone else can copy, paste, and run this immediately.
Instead of reading from the clipboard, you can:
reprex(mean(rnorm(10)))
to get code from expression.
reprex(input = "mean(rnorm(10))\n")
gets code from character vector (detected via length or terminating newline). Leading prompts are stripped from input source: reprex(input = "> median(1:3)\n")
produces same output as reprex(input = "median(1:3)\n")
reprex(input = "my_reprex.R")
gets code from file
Use one of the RStudio add-ins to use the selected text or current file.
But wait, there’s more!
Set the target venue to Stack Overflow with reprex(..., venue = "so")
.
Get a runnable R script, augmented with commented output, with reprex(..., venue = "R")
. This is useful for Slack, email, etc.
By default, figures are uploaded to imgur.com and resulting URL is dropped into an inline image tag.
Use the outfile
argument to control where results are left behind. Use outfile = NA
to work in current working directory.
Get clean, runnable code from wild-caught reprexes with
reprex_invert()
= the opposite of reprex()
reprex_clean()
, e.g. when you copy/paste from GitHub or Stack Overflowreprex_rescue()
, when you’re dealing with copy/paste from R ConsolePlease note that this project is released with a Contributor Code of Conduct. By participating in this project you agree to abide by its terms.

Description: Dominant module filters for such variants where the affected individual (Phenotype=2) and the affected parent (Phenotype=3) are heterozygous for the variant and the unaffected parent and/or individuals (Phenotype=1) are wild type for the alternate allele. In this module the affected parent must be present in the PED file and coded as Phenotype=3. If available, the unaffected parent should be coded as control, Phenotype=1.
In the absence of affected parent, the user can switch to case-specific module to filter for the heterozygous variants specific to the affected individual (Phenotype=2) while the other unaffected individuals (Phenotype=1) from the general population are used as controls.
Parameters:Maximum number of cases allowed to have missing genotype: The user can chose the number of affected individuals that can have missing genotype.
Maximum MAF in controls: Inaddition, the user can relax the criteria by allowing the variant to be present in controls by providing maximum minor allele frequency of the variants in the control cohort.
Required columns in PED file:IndividualID and Phenotype columns are required to perform pedigree and case-control analysis
Phenotype coding:
