Constraint
classes| class name | shortcut | |
Any() |
accept anything | |
StringConstraint(maxLength=1000) |
str |
string of up to maxLength characters (maxLength=None means unlimited), or a VOCAB sequence of any length |
IntegerConstraint(maxBytes=-1) |
int |
integer. maxBytes=-1 means s_int32_t, =N means LONGINT which can be expressed in N or fewer bytes (i.e. abs(num) < 2**(8*maxBytes)), =None means unlimited. NOTE: shortcut 'long' is like shortcut 'int' but maxBytes=1024. |
NumberConstraint(maxBytes=1024) |
float |
integer or float. Integers are limited by maxBytes as in
IntegerConstraint , floats are fixed size. |
BooleanConstraint(value=None) |
bool |
True or False. If value=True, only accepts True. If value=False, only accepts False. NOTE: value= is a very silly parameter. |
InterfaceConstraint(iface) |
Interface | TODO. UNSAFE. Accepts an instance which claims to implement the given Interface. The shortcut is simply any Interface subclass. |
ClassConstraint |
Class | TODO. UNSAFE. Accepts an instance which claims to be of the given class name. The shortcut is simply any (old-style) class object. |
PolyConstraint(*alternatives) |
(alt1, alt2) | Accepts any object which obeys at least one of the alternative
constraints provided. Implements a logical OR function of the given
constraints. Also known as ChoiceOf . |
TupleConstraint(*elemConstraints) |
Accepts a tuple of fixed length with elements that obey the given
constraints. Also known as TupleOf . |
|
ListConstraint(elemConstraint, maxLength=30) |
Accepts a list of up to maxLength items, each of which obeys the
element constraint provided. Also known as ListOf . |
|
DictConstraint(keyConstraint, valueConstraint, maxKeys=30) |
Accepts a dictionary of up to maxKeys items. Each key must obey
keyConstraint and each value must obey valueConstraint. Also known
as DictOf . |
|
AttributeDictConstraint(*attrTuples, **kwargs) |
Constrains dictionaries used to describe instance attributes, as used by RemoteCopy. Each attrTuple is a pair of (attrname, constraint), used to constraint individual named attributes. kwargs['attributes'] provides the same control. kwargs['ignoreUnknown'] is a boolean flag which indicates that unknown attributes in inbound state should simply be dropped. kwargs['acceptUnknown'] indicates that unknown attributes should be accepted into the instance state dictionary. | |
RemoteMethodSchema(method=None, _response=None,
__options=[], **kwargs) |
Constrains arguments and return value of a single remotely-invokable
method. If method= is provided, the inspect module is used
to extract constraints from the method itself (positional arguments are
not allowed, default values of keyword arguments provide constraints for
each argument, the results of running the method provide the return value
constraint). If not, most kwargs items provide constraints for method
arguments, _response provides a constraint for the return value.
__options and additional kwargs keys provide neato whiz-bang future
expansion possibilities. |
|
Shared(constraint, refLimit=None) |
TODO. Allows objects with refcounts no greater than refLimit (=None means unlimited). Wraps another constraint, which the object must obey. refLimit=1 rejects shared objects. | |
Optional(constraint, default) |
TODO. Can be used to tag Copyable attributes or (maybe) method arguments. Wraps another constraint. If an object is provided, it must obey the constraint. If not provided, the default value will be given in its place. | |
FailureConstraint() |
Constrains the contents of a CopiedFailure. |
""" RemoteReference objects should all be tagged with interfaces that they implement, which point to representations of the method schemas. When a remote method is called, Foolscap should look up the appropriate method and serialize the argument list accordingly. We plan to eliminate positional arguments, so local RemoteReferences use their schema to convert callRemote calls with positional arguments to all-keyword arguments before serialization. Conversion to the appropriate version interface should be handled at the application level. Eventually, with careful use of twisted.python.context, we might be able to provide automated tools for helping application authors automatically convert interface calls and isolate version-conversion code, but that is probably pretty hard.

A RemoteReference/RemoteCopy (called a Remote for now) has a schema attached to it. remote.callRemote(methodname, *args) does schema.getMethodSchema(methodname) to obtain a MethodConstraint that describes the individual method. This MethodConstraint (or MethodSchema) has other attributes which are used by either end: what arguments are allowed and/or expected, calling conventions (synchronous, in-order, priority, etc), and how the return value should be constrained.
To use the Remote like a RemoteCopy ...
Remote: .methods .attributes .getMethodSchema(methodname) -> MethodConstraint .getAttributeSchema(attrname) -> a Constraint XPCOM idl specifies methods and attributes (readonly, readwrite). A Remote object which represented a distant XPCOM object would have a Schema that is created by parsing the IDL. Its callRemote would do the appropriate marshalling. Issue1: XPCOM lets methods have in/out/inout parameters.. these must be detected and a wrapper generated. Issue2: what about attribute set/get operations? Could add setRemote and getRemote for these. --- Some of the schema questions come down to how PBRootSlicer should deal with instances. The question is whether to treat the instance as a Referenceable (copy-by-reference: create and transmit a reference number, which will be turned into a RemoteReference on the other end), or as a Copyable (copy-by-value: collect some instance state and send it as an instance). This decision could be made by looking at what the instance inherits from: if isinstance(obj, pb.Referenceable): sendByReference(obj) elif isinstance(obj, pb.Copyable): sendByValue(obj) else: raise InsecureJellyError or by what it can be adapted to: r = IReferenceable(obj, None) if r: sendByReference(r) else: r = ICopyable(obj, None) if r: sendByValue(r) else: raise InsecureJellyError The decision could also be influenced by the sending schema currently in effect. Side A invokes a method on side B. A knows of a schema which states that the 'foo' argument of this method should be a CopyableSpam, so it requires the object be adaptable to ICopyableSpam (which is then copied by value) tries to comply when that argument is serialized. B will enforce its own schema. When B returns a result to A, the method-result schema on B's side can influence how the return value is handled. For bonus points, it may be possible to send the object as a combination of these two. That may get pretty hard to follow, though.
One possibility: rather than using a SlicerRegistry, use Adapters. The ISliceable interface has one method: getSlicer(). Slicer.py would register adapters for basic types (list, dict, etc) that would just return an appropriate ListSlicer, etc. Instances which would have been pb.Copyable subclasses in oldpb can still inherit from pb.Copyable, which now implements ISliceable and produces a Slicer (opentype='instance') that calls getStateToCopy() (although the subclass-__implements__ handling is now more important than before). pb.Referenceable implements ISlicer and produces a Slicer (opentype='reference'?) which (possibly) registers itself in the broker and then sends the reference number (along with a schema if necessary (and the other end wants them)).
Classes are also welcome to implement ISlicer themselves and produce whatever clever (streaming?) Slicer objects they like.
On the receiving side, we still need a registry to provide reasonable security. There are two registries. The first is the RootUnslicer.openRegistry, and maps OPEN types to Unslicer factories. It is used in doOpen().
The second registry should map opentype=instance class names to something which can handle the instance contents. Should this be a replacement Unslicer?

Report reveals Leeds Utd ace’s new deal is worth over £20,000-a-week
by Ron CarneLeeds Utd star Mateusz Klich penned a new contract with the club last week, and the financial details in the deal have now been touted.
The 29-year-old has been a key figure for Marcelo Bielsa so far this season, making 17 appearances and chipping in with two goals and an assist.
SEE MORE: Former Liverpool and Leeds ace undergoes surgery on brain tumour
It follows on from making 50 appearances last season, as Leeds continue to try and secure promotion back to the Premier League.
He was rewarded as the club announced last Saturday that he had signed a new four-and-a-half-year deal and now Football Insider report that he’s earning more than £20,000-a-week.
Handing him such a deal gives a clear indication that not only do Leeds have faith in his ability to help them get out of the Championship, but also to play a key role in their bid to stay in the Premier League if they get there.
His current contract would keep him at Elland Road until he turns 34, and so Klich will undoubtedly be delighted with securing perhaps the last major contract of his career to keep him with the Championship giants.
Leeds sit in third place in the table after 16 games, just two points adrift of leaders West Brom and level on points with second-placed Preston in the scrap for an automatic promotion spot.
Time will tell if this is finally the year that they are able to get themselves back into the Premier League, but Klich will certainly be around either way it seems having committed his long-term future.


Low level management wrappers
This package provides a Dynamic MBean wrapper to Jk and other components ( tomcat
Interceptors, Ant tasks, etc ) that follow Java Bean setter patterns.
It will also provide an abstraction of the config mechanism used - allowing multiple
config repositories to be used, and allowing persistence of the configuration. This
is not yet implemented - the idea is similar with what happens on jk_config.c,
i.e. have all configuration done via JMX layer, and have the JMX layer manage
the config file ( eventually via an abstraction layer )
JkConfig
This will be the main class for dealing with configs.
It doesn't depend on JMX - all DynamicBeans will call JkConfig to actually
set/get parameters on the various components.
It'll manage a tree ( with 2 levels ) represnetation of the config. Each
component will have a node, and we'll store the attribute names and
( original ) attribute values. Ant-style substitution will happen before
calling the actual setter.
Runtime changes will be reflected in the config file. Since we maintain
the tree with whatever the user explicitely configures we don't have to
call getters or guess what has to be stored and what doesn't.
Internally it uses IntrospectionUtil to do all the conversions and magic.
DynamicMBeanProxy
This is what JMX sees. It'll make calls on JkConfig for handling the actual
configuration.
XXX Right now it does all the work, we must move it to JkConfig when ready.
JkHandlerMX

"Zomia is an alternate world, a realm of mutable, outlaw cultures, creating almost no empires and resisting being incorporated into those that originated elsewhere." It consists of a number of groups (or tribes) that are organized in ways that are different from one another, such as the Lahu, Khmu, Akha, Karen, Kachin, Chin, Hmong, Yao/Mien, Wa, and the list goes on. The organizational structure in the first three, for example, is strongly egalitarian and decentralized, whereas the rest are both relatively hierarchical subgroups and relatively decentralized, egalitarian subgroups.
Other factors that make Zomia different or difficult to rule include:
- Cultural Refusal and Political Resistance
- Diversity: cultural variation
- Agricultural lifestyle: swiddening vs. fixed agriculture
- Social Structure: flexible and egalitarian vs. hierarchical
- The sociological pyramid is flat and local
- Hierarchy and centralization is not constant
- Relatively stateless
- Geographical isolation from centers of states of power
- The population has actively resisted:
- The classical state
- The colonial state
- The independent nation-state
Taking a closer look at Wa, that live along the Myanmar-China border, they have their own "unofficial narcostate" that they fund by producing poppy or smuggling heroin, and they are protected by a 20,000-strong army.

Pope calls nuclear weapons possession indefensible and perverse
NAGASAKI, Nov 24 — Pope Francis, speaking in one of the only two cities hit by atomic bombs in history, appealed for the abolition of nuclear weapons today, saying their mere possession was perverse and indefensible.
“The possession of nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction is not the answer (to longings for peace),” Francis said in a message delivered at Nagasaki’s Atomic Bomb Hypocenter Park, ground zero of the bomb the United States dropped on Aug. 9, 1945, instantly killing 27,000 people.
“Our world is marked by a perverse dichotomy that tries to defend and ensure stability and peace through a false sense of security sustained by a mentality of fear and mistrust,” he said, speaking in a driving rain.
“Peace and international stability are incompatible with attempts to build upon the fear of mutual destruction or the threat of total annihilation,” he said. He also decried what he said was a dismantling of non-proliferation treaties.
Nagasaki was the second city to be hit by an atomic bomb during World War Two. Later today, the pope was due to visit Hiroshima, site of the first blast, which instantly killed about 78,000 people.
About 400,000 others eventually died of radiation illness and injuries caused by the two bombs, which the United States dropped in an effort to end the war. — Reuters

Mu-Queue
A simple queue management system.
Overview
The MuQueue system runs off of creating queues that hold jobs. Jobs are executed either individually, or as a series. Jobs are considered successful when they return a truthy result. If you need to access multiple queues across your code, you can use the queueManager to register your queues, and access them elsewhere without having to require multiple files.
Basic Example
const queue = require('mu-queue');
// Create a new queue and add a job.
queue('testQueue').add('job1', (data) => {
console.log(data);
return {
res: true,
msg: 'Job complete.'
}
})
// Hook into a few events.
queue('testQueue').on('queueComplete', (results) => {
console.log(`Queue succeess. Results: ${results}`);
})
queue('testQueue').on('queuefail', (results) => {
console.log(`Queue failure. Results: ${results}`);
})
// Run our queue with some data!
queue('testQueue').run(data);
Interval
Queues can also be created that run on an interval.
const queue = require('mu-queue');
queue('timeQueue', {interval: 4000}).add(data => {
console.log('It\'s been 4 seconds!');
return {
res: true,
msg: 'Job Triggered.'
}
// Start the timer.
queue('timeQueue').start(data);
});
Piping
Jobs placed in a queue can be piped together. First we have to pass the queue constructor the piping flag, then we have to make sure that our jobs associated with the queue have a data property in their results. It will be passed to the next job.
const queue = require('mu-queue');
// create the queue
queue('test',{piping:true})
// create a few jobs!
.add('job-1', (data) => {
const text = data + ' job-1';
return {
status: true,
data: text
}
})
.add('job-2', (data) => {
const text = data + ' job-2';
return {
status: true,
data: text
}
})
// Run our jobs!
.run('Foobar!');
// Returns: 'Foobar! Job-1 Job-2'

--- title: A Deep Learning Workflow Part 1, Hugging Face datasets + Weights & Biases author: Cristóbal Alcázar date: '2023-02-22' slug: [] categories: [workflow, deep-learning, huggingface, weights&biases, image-segmentation] tags: [deep-learning, image-segmentation, workflow, open-source] comments: no showcomments: yes showpagemeta: yes ---
Last update: 22/02/2023
This post was highlighted by the Weights & Biases community and published in their Fully Connected blog. You can read the interactive version here.
tl;dr Colabs are powerful, but they make experimentation difficult. In this article, we explore how to change your workflow with HuggingFace and Weights & Biases.
Over the years, I’ve used many Google Colab notebooks. They’re great for experimentation and sharing your deep learning projects with others and save you the hassle of needing to set up a Python environment. That makes it much easier to open a notebook and start to figure out what’s actually inside or to jump directly into working on your problem.
Past that, if you’re working on a deep learning problem, you’ll undoubtedly require GPUs. Thankfully, Colab provides you with a free usage quota. Exporting into a standard Jupyter notebook is trivial if you want to start a GitHub repository and move the notebook there.
In a nutshell, Colab is an excellent tool to prototype small to mid-size projects and create tutorials and interactive code to share with your community.
Still, they aren’t perfect. Here are the two major friction points for Colabs as I see them:
Thankfully, there are two open-source tools that I’ve started to use to alleviate both problems: Hugging Face Datasets and Weights & Biases. If you’d like to follow along with this article as a Colab, please follow the link above!
In this post, I’ll discuss how these tools allow you to transition from a project notebook approach into a more mature deep learning repository with the respective python modules and a command line interface for running your experiments wherever you want.
Our project today involves fine-tuning an image segmentation model (SegFormer) with cellular images from a high-throughput microscope 🔬.
The idea is to train a model using cellular photography with mask labels that denote the living cells. A good model can connect directly to the microscope and help scientists detect cells quickly affected by a given treatment.
We are talking about reproducibility and collaboration so that you can follow the Google Collab Notebook (it’s the same at the banner at the start of the post). The notebook has three sections:
These three sections broadly follow the development of the project. First, we’ll understand how to use the model and the dataset manipulation to feed it. Next, we’ll start working on training, namely what we want to track and record, and the hyperparameters configurations (such as the learning rate and batch size).
These two initial sections work as an internal exploration and as documentation for anyone who wants to understand the project. The third and final step is an engineering effort to make life easier and get the job done.
If you’ve dabbled in machine learning, chances are you’ve worked on the classic MNIST dataset alongside PyTorch. The code below makes this easy so you don’t have to run boilerplate code or download MNIST every time you want to experiment. You can instead focus on learning new models and concepts.
import torchvision.datasets as datasets
MNISt=datasets.MNIST(root='./data', train=True, download=True, transform=None)
In the same spirit of pulling MNIST from PyTorch, we want our data for this project in a central repository, ready to consume, and easy to share. We can get these three features for free using the HuggingFace dataset repository.
In Figure 2, we have a picture of the dataset repository of the example project, a page where you have a preview and documentation of the data. There is also a repository for storing images, text, or other data you have and there is no limit size for the data storage reported in the documentation. Still, I created a repository that stored the NIH Chest X-ray dataset (> 40gb) without problems, and there are datasets with terabytes of memory.
The purpose of investing time in creating a repository for your dataset is that you’ll end up with a Python module for downloading and loading the data in the same fashion that torchvision.datasets
provides you with the MNIST and others benchmark datasets.
Below you can see how we load the dataset for the cell segmentation example project:
from datasets import load_dataset
repo_name = "alkzar90/cell_benchmark"
train_ds = load_dataset(repo_name, split="train", streaming=False)
val_ds = load_dataset(repo_name, split="validation", streaming=False)
test_ds = load_dataset(repo_name, split="test", streaming=False)
How does HuggingFace know how the dataset load (i.e. read files and split the data)?
torchvision.datasets.ImageFolder
approach (i.e. data_split/label/image_001.jpg). This helps the Hugging Face dataset module figures out how to load your data.The datasets repository works similarly to a GitHub repo. You can get version code and data with commits, collaborate with others via pull requests, and have README for general dataset documentation. There is also support for apache arrow format to get the data in streaming mode, Finally, when the data is too heavy to load at once, you can download it, and via the caching system, you can load batches on demand in memory.
Weight & Biases (W&B or wandb
) provides free services for logging information about your project into a web server that you can monitor from a dashboard. It’s helpful to think of your W&B project as a database with tools for interacting with your experiment information.
Once you have a W&B account, you can create a project such as alcazar90/cell-segmentation to log the information from each experiment you run.
In section 2 of the google colab, sub-section “🦾 Run experiment”, you’ll initialize a run with wandb.init
providing the following arguments: (i.) name of the project and (ii.) a config dictionary that provides context about your experimentation such as number of epochs, batch size, etc. Also, you can name your runs something memorable, but if you don’t, W&B create random expressions such as resplendent-rocket-27 or abundant-moon-38 (yes, the number is the experiment number).
Commonly, there will be a lot of runs in your project because when you get a taste of the improvements in you can make in how you log information, you’ll find yourself getting a ton of new ideas.
PROJECT = 'cell-segmentation'
wandb.init(project=PROJECT, config={"epochs": EPOCHS, "batch_size": BS, "lr": LR,
"lr_scheduler_exponential__gamma": GAMMA,
"seed": SEED})
# Add additional configs to wandb if needed
wandb.config['len_train'] = len(datasets.train_ds)
wandb.config['len_val'] = len(datasets.valid_ds)
For example, you can see the config information in the dashboard from the run auspicious-paper-44
in the overview option at the left menu. There is a table describing the context of this experiment (mostly hyperparameters settings in this case):
After initializing a run and logging the config, we want to log information during the model training. Typically we want to track the main metrics in the train and validation set; these will be floating points across time that we log using wandb.log
.
for epoch in tqdm(range(EPOCHS)):
...
metrics = {"train/train_loss": train_loss,
"train/epoch": (step + 1 + (n_steps_per_epoch * epoch)) / n_steps_per_epoch,
"train/example_ct": example_ct,
"train/cur_learning_rate": scheduler.state_dict()["_last_lr"][0]}
...
val_metrics = {"val/val_loss": val_loss,
"val/val_accuracy": accuracy,
"val/mIoU": mIoU}
wandb.log({**metrics, **val_metrics})
W&B knows how to display these metrics, so it makes charts for you automatically in the run’s dashboard.
Beyond the obvious things to log (like training and validation loss), you can log whatever you want for your specific project. In the Figure 5, I log information from the dev set into a wand.Table includes:
# 🐝 Create a wandb Table to log images, labels and predictions to
table = wandb.Table(columns=["image", "mask", "pred_mask", "probs", "iou"])
for img, mask, pred, prob, iou_metric in zip(images.to("cpu"), masks.to("cpu"), predicted.to("cpu"), probs.to("cpu"), iou_by_example.to("cpu")):
plt.imshow(prob.detach().cpu());
plt.axis("off");
plt.tight_layout();
table.add_data(
wandb.Image(img.permute(1,2,0).numpy()),
wandb.Image(mask.view(img.shape[1:]).unsqueeze(2).numpy()),
wandb.Image(np.uint8(pred.unsqueeze(2).numpy())*255),
wandb.Image(plt),
iou_metric)
Notice in the code that wand.Table
has image columns that we add using wand.Image
and requires numpy arrays as input, but you can also log plots created with matplotlib, like in the case of the probability column. These allow us to have tables with rendered images as values that we can inspect quickly. This feature is convenient as a complement to traditional metrics. However, for generative image models, checking the pictures you generated by the model during training gives you more information about your model than tracking the loss.
Finally, on your project’s main page, in the “Table” option at the left menu, you have a bird-eye view of all runs and their metrics to compare. You can export this info into a csv file or download it by API to analyze.
Note 1: Whenever you initialize a run (wandb.init
), W&B will ask you to provide the API key for authentication; you can find it at W&B>settings>API keys.
Note 2: There is a short course of W&B called “Effective MLOps: Model Development” to learn the fundamentals.
In the last section, we saw how to integrate W&B to log information about our model training. Still, fine-tuning a model or training from scratch requires a lot of experimentation. The idea is to iterate and try many configurations.
And sure, you can do this in the notebook, but doing it that way is redundant and non-optimal. Think about re-running every time the code cells after you change the batch size in your data loaders, for example. That’s not ideal. The next step is to wrap all the code cells required to train your model into a training script, such as downloading the dataset, creating the data loaders, importing utility functions, and setting hyperparameters and training configurations.
Wrapping the code into a training script, plus using the
argparse
module, you’ll be able to call the training script directly from the command line:
!python finetune_model.py --train_batch_size 4 --validation_batch_size 3\
--init_learning_rate 3e-4 --learning_rate_scheduler_gamma 0.92\
--num_train_epochs 15 --reproducibility_seed 42313988\
--log_images_in_validation True --dataloader_num_workers 0\
--model_name "huggingface-segformer-nvidia-mit-b0"\
--project_name "cell-segmentation"
You can see the training script here, but the main heavy work is done by the argparse module where you can define a parser protocol to define and read the parameters for running the script via the command line. The idea is as follows:
import argparse
def parse_args(input_args=None):
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="Training loop script for fine-tune a pretrained SegFormer model.")
parser.add_argument(
"--train_batch_size", type=int, default=4, help="Batch size (per device) for
the training dataloader"
)
...
Thus far, we’ll developed the entire code project in Google Colab, created a HuggingFace dataset repository, and integrated W&B to log the model training information. But the project doesn’t have any home in GitHub.
When is it actually necessary to create a code repository for the project? It depends. For example, if creating the dataset requires pre-processing scripts and tests, keeping all those files in a GitHub repository makes sense. Regardless, the moment we develop the training script, creating a GitHub repository for the training script and its dependencies is a good decision. We want to make the training script accessible, even for us. In the last section of the google colab notebook, I downloaded the training script from the GitHub repo to train using the computation provided by colab.
!wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/alcazar90/cell-segmentation/main/finetune_model.py
Side actions to do with your repo: upload a Jupyter notebook version of the Colab and write a nice readme to provide context.
If you (or I) wanted to continue the project, some next steps to consider:
.txt
file with different training
configurations.training.py
, such as model.py
for code related to downloading and loading models and inference.py
for computing evaluation metrics.Using W&B and Hugging Face makes projects like the one above a lot easier to manage, reproduce, and understand. Having the code ready in a Colab gives us GPU access and makes running discrete steps a breeze.
I hope this piece helps you as you consider how best to experiment in your project. If you have any questions, feel free to drop them in the comments below. Thanks!

I've been using drugs for about 5 years now and have tried just about everything. I'm what you may call a 'stoner', as a smoke cannabis regularly. I do other substances occasionally as well.
Earler this year a friend of mine offered me some heroin, and of course, I decided to try some with him. We were using 'tar' cut with nytol and snorting it. I liked it so much I started to use it often. I quickly found myself doing it every day and spending to much money on it. Waking up without it was hell so I knew I was becoming addicted. I didn't want this addiction, yet couldn't quit do to the withdrawl.
Well, as it turns out I met a cancer patient that was taking methadone, as well as other opiates. We were smoking pot together when he offered me 2 10mg methadone pills. I took the pills later on that day to see how they compared to the real thing. After about an hour or so they began to take effect. The effects I found to be very simular to heroin to some extent. You see, the heroin I had been doing was from the street meaning it wasn't 'clean', methadone is made in a lab and has no dealer 'cut' to it making it much more pure.
I loved the feel of the methadone running through me. It was a more intense high and lasted about 8 hours (until I finally feel asleep). I awoke the next day groggy, but not to dope sick. As usuall, I went and re-upped on the brown. I mixed it up and did a few lines when, I noticed it wasn't affecting me as good as normal, but I wasn't getting sick either. I couldn't achieve the high I got from the methadone so, I called my friend and asked if I could have some more. It just so worked out that he lost his weed connection and I knew where to get some, so we began to trade 4 10mg methadone in exchange for 5g of weed ($10 worth).
To make a long story short, this went on evey day for weeks until I finaly quit opiates for good. The good thing about methadone was that it took away the heroin addiction by taking away the heroin high. To get high I had to have methadone, meaning the heroin wasn't needed anymore. Without methadone, I don't know how I could have kicked the habit.

Paul McCartney to headline Glastonbury festival
LONDON — Paul McCartney has snagged the coveted Saturday night headline slot at Glastonbury next year as the British music festival celebrates its 50th birthday.
Festival organizers confirmed Monday that the former Beatle will perform on the main Pyramid Stage on June 27.
McCartney last played Glastonbury in 2004, delivering a set of songs covering the Beatles era, his later work solo and with Wings.
The 77-year-old star tweeted: "Hey Glasto - excited to be part of your Anniversary celebrations. See ya next summer!"
The festival takes over Worthy Farm in southwest England from June 24-28. The 135,000 tickets sold within an hour of going on sale last month.

Introduction
This is a version of the Chumash that is designed to highlight the way the trope (ta'amim) divide up the verses of the Torah, and help us understand how to read it.
Basic Principles
- There are two types of ta'amim: dividers (מפסיקים) and connectors (משרתים).
Roughly speaking, each word has one ta'am.
- But if a word is connected to the following word by a maqaf (like עַל־פְּנֵ֣י), only the last word has a ta'am: they are effectively combined into a single word.
- The מפסיקים tell us how the posuk is organized. Each one separates a phrase into two: the words before and including the word with the ta'am, and the words after it. That former half of the phrase is also called the "realm" (מלכות) of the מפסיק.
- On the other hand, a משרת (connector) doesn't divide. It connects a word that has it to the next מפסיק in the phrase.
- There are four levels of מפסיקים. Rav Mordechai Breuer called them Caesar, Melech, Mishneh, and Shlish. I'll just call them levels 1, 2, 3, 4.
- Level 1 is the strongest, and there are only two: sof pasuk and esnachta. They divide the whole verse in two.
- Within those halves, if there are Level 2 מפסיקים, each would divide that half into two more halves. And so on for Level 3, which divide the malkhus of Level 2, etc.
- Each level only appears before a level one above it. That is, a Level 1 malkhus is always divided by Level 2 and not any level below, and so on.
- However, there can be more than one of a given level in the "realm" of the next higher level. So there may be several Level 2 מפסיקים within the Level 1 malkhus. In that case, the division goes from right to left: The first Level 2 (when read from right to left) divides the Level 1 malkhus into two parts, then the next one divides what is left, etc.
The Ta'amim
The various מפסיקים, and each one's level - and the משרתים:
| Levels | Ta'amim | Names |
1 |
אֽ׃ א֑ |
סוף פסוק\סילוק, אתנחתא |
2 |
א֖ א֔ א֕ א֒ א֓ |
טפחא, זקף קטן, זקף גדול, סגול, שלשלת |
3 |
א֗ א֙ א֚ א֛ א֮ |
רביע, פשתא, יתיב, תביר, זרקא |
4 |
א֜ א֞ א֟ א֠ א֡ א֣׀ |
גרש\אזלא, גרשיים, קרני פרה, תלישא גדולה, פזר, מונח לגרמיה |
| ----- |
א֥ א֣ א֤ א֧ א֨ א֩ א֦ א֪ |
מרכא, מונח, מהפך, דרגא, קדמא, תלישא קטנה, מרכא כפולה, ירח בן יומו |
How it works
Let's take an example of a posuk with a lot of structure and see how the ta'amim help to elucidate it. This one is similar to B'reishis, 1(9) [altered slightly, so not actually a real posuk].
א(ט)וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵיהֶ֗םיִקָּו֨וּ מַּ֜יִם מִתַּ֤חַת שָּׁמַ֨יִם֙ אֶל־מָק֣וֹם אֶחָ֔דוְתֵֽרָאֶ֖ה יַּבָּשָׁ֑הוַֽיְהִי־כֵֽן׃
Note how the posuk is divided into nested boxes. The outermost (yellow) nesting is Level 1: אתנחתא and סוף פסוק - you can see how the posuk is divided by them into two boxes. The division is by meaning, not by length: Here the second box is only one (or two) words long!
Inside the first of them, the posuk is further divided by two orange boxes; these are the Level-2 זקן קטן and טפחא. As they are on the same level, they are read from right to left: First the זקף קטן divides that section into
וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵיהֶ֗ם יִקָּו֨וּ מַּ֜יִם מִתַּ֤חַת שָּׁמַ֨יִם֙ אֶל־מָק֣וֹם אֶחָ֔ד and וְתֵֽרָאֶ֖ה יַּבָּשָׁ֑ה.
After that, the טפחא divides the second (remaining) section into וְתֵֽרָאֶ֖ה and יַּבָּשָׁ֑ה.
And so on: The Level-3 (green) רביע and פשתא divide up the first orange section, with the רביע going first. Finally, the Level-4 (blue) אזלא\גרש divides ויִקָּו֨וּ מַּ֜יִם מִתַּ֤חַת שָּׁמַ֨יִם֙ in two.
This same procedure can be followed for any posuk in the Torah.
Each malkhus (box) often contains משרתים - connecting ta'amim - as well, in the words before the main מפסיק. These are all the words that do not complete a box. Here, for example, the ta'am (munach) on אֶל־מָק֣וֹם is a משרת.

Hebrew cantillation by Helmut Richter, and the Wikipedia article

Today I will explain the differences between relative, absolute, and fixed positioning.
An element with position: absolute; is positioned relative to the nearest positioned ancestor (instead of positioned relative to the viewport, like fixed). However; if an absolute positioned element has no positioned ancestors, it uses the document body, and moves along with page scrolling.
An element with position: fixed; is positioned relative to the viewport, which means it always stays in the same place even if the page is scrolled. The top, right, bottom, and left properties are used to position the element. Notice the fixed element in the lower-right corner of the page.

[dscrd-hush] <denio> ty guys
[dscrd-hush] <denio>
[dscrd-hush] <heguli97>
[dscrd-hush] <heguli97> It works
Spend an obscene amount of money.  So ...
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> it's quite appropriate
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> Not much time for code today, real life! And enjoying summer is important too.... But I have a nice little update
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> I made awesome progress on getting details shielded stats
[dscrd-hush] <ITM> now when I tip am going to: amount want to tip = 1 hush x comma's
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> i.e. every full node can keep track of all the good stats, like "% of shielded transactions" and all that
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> @ITM
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> James made me realize, this should be called a new -zindex=1 CLI option
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> just like txindex and spentindex, Hush just invented the zindex (soon to be shared with all KMD chains)
WIP, not ready to merge
This attempts to add both transaction stats and payment stats, where one transaction can have many payments.
TODO:
Define zindex CLI param, default to off
Modify serializ...
[dscrd-hush] <ITM> @dukeleto looking at the code, don't the full node need to reindex?
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> The PR is getting big already! But it mostly works
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> @ITM correct, i didn't write any of that code yet
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> i am getting all the stats to be correct first, before doing config file/CLI option stuff
[dscrd-hush] <ITM> @dukeleto I test when you done
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> some stats still have zeros, because I need to resync with a new block index, ignore those for now
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> look at the bottom
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> "shielded_only": {
"fully_shielded_tx_percent": 0.005524861878453038,
"shielding_tx_percent": 0.4677716390423573,
"deshielding_tx_percent": 0.536279926335175,
"fully_shielded_payments_percent": 0,
"shielding_payments_percent": 0,
"deshielding_payments_percent": 0
}
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> so that means "46.7% shielding, 53% deshielding, 0.5% fully shielded transactions" for Hush, in the last 30 days, when only looking at shielded transactions
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> making things add up to 100% is not really possible, and the z2z number needs to be subtracted from the other percentages. Lots of little things, but the code does seem to work, and gives so many stats
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> all the "rates" are in per/second
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> "shielded_paymentrate": 0.001048498827538829, means 3.75 zxtns/hour on the Hush chain, on average, over the last 30 days
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> This is the first time we have ever had any real statistics
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> Compared to a total of 42 xtns/hour that the Hush chain does in total (including zxtns)
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> so much data
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> and you can call this RPC, giving it any number of blocks. The default # of blocks is 30 days
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> so, have fun y'all!
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> @CHMEX things are coming down the line ^^^
[dscrd-hush] <ITM> so u can have any number of days?
What if I want daily, weekly, monthly, yearly? (I know I could store it in database daily)
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> @ITM you give the RPC the amount of blocks in the "window"
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> Arguments:
1. nblocks (numeric, optional) Number of blocks in averaging window.
2. blockhash (string, optional) The hash of the block which ends the window.
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> @ITM so you can ask for stats like "the 30 days before and including this block"
(edited)
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> very powerful, allows looking at history in a sliding window
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> or you can change your window size to 1 hour or 1 day/etc
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> I keep stats on transactions and payments, of all flavors: Shielding, Deshielding, Full Shielded or any of the previous (Shielded)
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> and then you can make so many stats from those basic data points
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> Currently i am wondering if i should keep track of coinbase stuff, otherwise it's not possible to isolate that data, or subtract it out, which could give some interesting numbers
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> % shielded is always going to be a low %, if you count all taddr coinbase
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> If somebody can think of a stat they want to see, let me know!!!!

Question
According to the Wikipedia's article: "The Game of Life, also known simply as Life, is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970."
Given a board with m by n cells, each cell has an initial state live (1) or dead (0). Each cell interacts with its eight neighbors (horizontal, vertical, diagonal) using the following four rules (taken from the above Wikipedia article):
- Any live cell with fewer than two live neighbors dies, as if caused by under-population.
- Any live cell with two or three live neighbors lives on to the next generation.
- Any live cell with more than three live neighbors dies, as if by over-population..
- Any dead cell with exactly three live neighbors becomes a live cell, as if by reproduction.
Write a function to compute the next state (after one update) of the board given its current state.
Follow up:
- Could you solve it in-place? Remember that the board needs to be updated at the same time: You cannot update some cells first and then use their updated values to update other cells.
- In this question, we represent the board using a 2D array. In principle, the board is infinite, which would cause problems when the active area encroaches the border of the array. How would you address these problems?
Analysis
这个问题难的地方不是更新规则，而是如何in place来完成更新。我们可以观察到每个格子值是0或者1，从bit的角度来看，有大量空间被浪费了。所以不妨在把高位用作储存更新状态，完成更新计算后，再把高位通过shift移到低位，完成更新。复杂度为O(nm)，即matrix大小。代码如下。
Code
class Solution(object):
def gameOfLife(self, board):
"""
:type board: List[List[int]]
:rtype: void Do not return anything, modify board in-place instead.
"""
# sweep through the matrix
m = len(board)
if not m:
return
n = len(board[0])
if not n:
return
for i in range(m):
for j in range(n):
count = 0
for ii in range(max(i-1, 0), min(i+2, m)):
for jj in range(max(j-1, 0), min(j+2, n)):
count += board[ii][jj] & 1
if (count == 4 and board[i][j]) or count == 3:
board[i][j] |= 16
for i in range(m):
for j in range(n):
board[i][j] >>= 4

[Erowid Warning: Our understanding of the literature is that there is no such thing as safe use of volatile solvents, aerosols and other street inhalants : their psychoactive effects are inseparable from nerve and organ damage. We have chosen to include these reports to help document the real world use of inhalants, but their inclusion is not intended to imply that they are anything but dangerous.]
From the age of aroung 15, I started experimenting with more intriguing drugs than weed and booze. Ecstacy became available to me, and 'anything I can get my hands on' became my limit of intake. Poppers (Alkyl Nitrate) were the first solvent abuse I had tried. They were fun because they were quite intense, though didn't last for too long, but the downfall was the throbbing headache which followed every worthwhile session. Weed was always my backbone drug whatever else I may be taking, but when supplies wore thin I would scour the haouse for anything that could possibly get me fucked.
I found butane an interesting substitute for poppers; an almost identical high, maybe a bit longer lasting, and no pain. Every now and then I would do a small amount but it got to the point where I wanted more and more and within one night I dramatically increased the dosage.
 I didn't close my mouth around the nozzzle fully for fear of sufffocation or overdose. I started to feel warm and fuzzy, and all of a sudden I would pass out and enter a dreamlike trance. I never realized that I had passed out because it was as though I was still lying in the same position, but strange things started to happen around me.
I would feel some strange connection with, I don't really know what: spirits, elements of my subconscious, other minds around the World experiencing the same thing as me(?). In another trip report there was a description of an alternate reality called the 'Boink' World. That particular word intrigued me, because I often heard faint bouncing sounds, and half-imagined minds of other more experinced butane-heads bouncing on some sort of psychic spring, which enabled them to travel through the minds of others on the gas, but I also got the feeling there was some place they gathered. I imagined some sort of butane rave, and felt the energy flowing through me, like they knew me and I was completely accepted, and I knew and understood them too.
I am trying to be as specific as possible but it's difficult to describe exactly what I experineced. I have realized through several phases of drug use and abuse that there is no way to fully explain a drug experience in a way others can understand, and this is something I have always been interested in, so I saw no other way than to try myself. Given the chance I probably wouldn't do it all again.
Other experiences include actors on TV stopping to watch me, and whisper about me onscreen. Wierd random stuff like looking shocked and asking each other 'What's he doing?' 'Will he live?' 'Crackheads drink it to deal with a comedown' (I'm not on crack though). I thought there was a tube connecting my TV to some source where the World could wathc me from for a while, and though I knew It was pretty stupid and unlikely, and completely eccentric, I still checked it most nights to be sure.
I was watching one thing, where a man and a woman were sitting on a bed. The TV sarted to flicker and the picture bent out of shape in places, and then it was as though the camera panned to the right to reveal the woman only, and she was looking right at me. 'I want to have your babies. Come with me, I will show you.' The gas starts to wear off, her voice is gone. I wipe the cold drool from the side of my mouth and look up to see some other completely unrelated scene.
The woman reappeared at a later date. She made a picture of me show on the screen. Then it cut to a close up of my eye and a portion of one side of my face and as it appears, all that is shown on TV becomes numb and starts to twitch, like pins and needles or a muscle spasm. I think I asked how she did it, but it was too late, the stuff doesn't last long enough. I've tried taking more and more, but I lose track of what I'm doing, I end up holding the can above my face, which lets the liquid rather than the gas into my mouth, which is cold and kind of freeze burns my tongue and just feels fucking wrong.
I see myself throwing up foam, and the woman is above my head on TV shouting my name, asking if I'm ok. I've inhaled imaginary cardboard squares which I believed were at the bottom of the can above a spring to force the gas out and believed I was choking trying to cough up the cardboard. A minute or 2 pass and I look for the foam, or the cardboard, but there's nothing. But it's all so real, I ignore the fact that it's not when I sober up.
There have been little transparent/purple cactus men walking past my bed, and jumping through a crack in my wall saying he'll be back later to take me to a butane mind-gathering.
I've spoken to the butane and it vibrated in response, for one night they were conscious particles from some distant asteroid, harvested for our need for fire, unknwn to the majority that they actually induce mind expansion or psychic powers or some other bullshit resulting from a brain which is probably functioning at less than half it's usual waking ability.
A scary one was more like a dream than most my hallucinations.  My mind said this was my girlfriend, though I'm not sure who I was at the time. I was sucking the other end of the tube, and some evil force was making us battle in some way, we were both being drained. I felt like I was being forced to take some horrible drug, and whoever took the most or gave in first would suffer some terrible fate. I gave in, and my girlfriend was ripped away from me, and all there was around me was darkness, and there was nothing to hold on to, so I was justfalling, and falling, and falling into more darkness.  I don't know if or when I stopped falling, but I ended up in my bed again.
Butane was starting to hurt. My lungs felt like they were coated in a thin layer of melted plastic or cligfilm and hard lumps were consantly easing their way up my throat, but emerged as white stringy liquid. My head felt emtpy and strained, pushed to the edge of exploding or caving in. I stuck to toots for a while, they got me to sleep ok, I didn't need to trip. But every time I remembered the wierd, the crazy, the unreal, I had to go back, there is no feeling like it. I started doing ecstacy and acid, and after having a really bad trip on cid(LSD) + a little ket, I retired to my room and got on the lighter gas, and instantly my head pounded and thudded like never before, I've never felt such pain. I grabbed Either side and struggled for breath, and all I could see was black and red in jagged lines, like lightning. I thought I was having a stroke.
Since then I did it occasionnally, but all that happens is the people on TV say things about me, things they know will hurt. I've had so many wierd experiences, painful, things that make me feel empty and inhuman. I blame acid, ketamine, pills, weed, but butane is the first hardcore (class A?) drug I did, and I did it to excess, and I think that is what did all the damage. Other drugs just brought it out.  I know because my mates have done the same amount and the same sort of drugs as me, barr butane, and have no such side effects.
I've stopped it now, stopped butane, but still battle with harsh paranoia, social awkwardness, delusional beliefs, superficial relationships, an uncontrollable fear of the world outside my head, lack of connection to anything real and solid. I know people can read minds, and they know what I have done. But then I don't really know if it's real, and I never will. The boundary separating my mild insanity/eccentricity from the real world has crumbled away, and only now is it starting to rebuild, but I'm not the sane. I took some things too far. But I still think back and imagine maybe I could experience it again.

ThreaditJS is an example application for SPA libraries/frameworks.
For news, please follow @ThreaditJS.
This page collects implementations of a thread-based discussion application all interacting with the same API. The intent is to provide side-by-side comparisons for tasks every ES2015 client application will necessarily complete. It should be considered a friendly competitor to TodoMVC.
The main application shows a list of threads similar to a well known Internet discussion forum. The user can create a new thread, display a thread's comments, and respond to a specific comment.
Current Mobile Performance Comparison
See here for some preliminary results.
Implementation list
Currently, I have:
I have also accepted pull requests for:

See the Github page!
Goals
Full post here.
Much respect is intended for TodoMVC. But even TodoMVC talks about MV* instead of MVC, and a theoretical design pattern label isn't a good descriptor for the problems we're trying to solve with modern web applications.
Implementing ThreaditJS with a framework involves:
- Interacting with a backend that maintains its own state
- More comprehensive use of routing
- A more revealing use case for DOM manipulation
The goal is to have an application with roughly similar simplicity while providing an example that lets you see how a framework will help you do the things you'll actually be doing.
(And yes, I know that some TodoMVC implementations toy with having a router or a more complex backend, but it isn't a basic component of the project.)
The API
All implementations will use the same API, located at api.threaditjs.com. Arguably someone could even come up with a native mobile consumer implementation. See the Github page for more on the API.
More to come! Follow me at @koglerjs or follow @ThreaditJS to find out when implementations are added or other updates occur!

Server stuck at GRUB menu after 1204 update upgrade
2014-03-05
ServerstuckatGRUBmenuafter12.04_update/upgrade
Having this problem of Ubuntu server stuck at grub menu and not going inside automatically, button enter has to pressed to get inside and also into a blank useless screen with single hyphen with no activity to view or enter command. Workaround was by pressing ENTER after few minutes of server reboot, solved!. My problem was with Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS in IBM but started same as with a clean sudo apt-get upgrade . With a successive problem in ssh and open port (last cradle of hope to run this server), I given attention to solve the problem. This is how I solved. One of the option to resolve grub struck problem is edit the grub2 options in file /etc/default/grub, to my surprise in the server there is no such file. So I re installed grub in the server using the command sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install –reinstall grub Based on: http://askubuntu.com/questions/41866...mand-not-found While doing this I got error of this kind in update Err http://ppa.launchpad.net precise Release.gpg Something wicked happened resolving ‘ppa.launchpad.net:http’ (-5 - No address associated with hostname) Though this error was not killing the installation processes, I resolved this error by changing the name server based on http://askubuntu.com/questions/11159...-mirror-errors. and done a sudo apt-get update, without any such this error. After reboot there is NO hanging at grub

How It Was Made: Ardalan - Mr. Good LP [Dirtybird]
Ardalan takes us behind the scenes to show how he made his new album 'Mr. Good.'
by KaneFor fans of SF-based label Dirtybird, Ardalan is a name that needs no introduction. His new album, Mr. Good, is a testament to his prowess as an artist and producer. The album weaves in and out of his signature house and techno funk, with a few surprises that showcase his talent in the studio. In this edition of How It Was Made, he breaks down the tools and process behind the creation of his new album, showcasing some amazing synths in his collection.
Words and photos by Ardalan
I Can’t Wait
"I Can’t Wait" is the quickest track I've ever finished. I made it right after "Mr.Good," which took 4 months! I really wanted the chords to zap the soul as if they were a bass line or a kick. Usually, when the bass or a big kick hits, people go crazy. So, I set the goal to make the chords have the same effect. It’s rare when you can get a melody to have that same effect, but I think it really achieved that on an emotional level. I used Black Corporations' Deckard Dreams which is an 8 voice analog beauty. The chords are crisp and they literally shine through the track. Another one of my favorite elements is the kick, which was made in Reason and processed through Ableton.
The hook stands out the most to me in this song. It actually has a funny story behind it; I had been working on this album for months (maybe even years) and I was at this point where I just didn’t know if I could finish it so I wrote: “I don’t know what I can do.” Then my girlfriend who was really over waiting for me to finish this album so we could watch Game of Thrones together would just come in my studio and yell “I can’t wait any longer.” These two phrases gave me the inspiration I needed. We ended up just recording those lines for fun and I really liked it. She really hates hearing her own voice, so I had to convince her to let me use it.
Osci feat Claire George
"Osci" has all sorts of analog fun. I used the Juno 106 for that Rhodes like chords during the breakdown and the Avalon Bassline for the sequenced melody that comes in the second half of the song. The main bass line was made with U-He REPRO 1 which is a software synthesizer. I think Repro is one of the best plug-ins to emulate snappy bass tones. I used the Roland TR8S & Reason 10 for the drums and percussion. The kick was made with the Pioneer DJS 1000.
Orange Dreams
"Orange Dreams" was one of the earlier songs I wrote a few years back. I really wanted to revisit it for the album. It’s actually all made in the DAW. I used U-He DIVA on the melody and bass line. I use this really amazing GUI skin in DIVA called “VOLTA” which makes DIVA look exactly look like the classic synths it mirrors. That way, I can experiment more instead of using presets. It also allows me to achieve getting analog satisfaction while on the road! All the drums were made with Reason 5 then rewired into Ableton for post-processing.
Mr.Good Feat Party Patty
"Mr.Good" was one of the craziest tracks I have ever worked on. I wanted it to bang and be funky while also having a rock-n-roll vibe. I really wanted it to sound fun! I almost lost my mind working on it because I could see how much potential it had, but I almost ruined it numerous times for dwelling on it and working on it too long. 4 months later, I finally had something that I was proud of.
The drums were mostly made with the SP 1200 and post-processed in Ableton. I used Fab-filter Saturn to boost the kick and layered other drum sounds from Reason's REDRUM. "Mr.Good" has over 80 tracks on the mix. I used the software synth Arturia’s Pigments on the guitar like sounds, which come in before the drop. I also used some of the weirder sounds which come from the Minimoog Model D. I had the Model D go through a BOSS distortion then through the BOSS DD7 delay pedal. I almost made it sound like an old messed up electric guitar. The Deckard's Dream was used on those guitar slide-like sounds that come in at 3:21 and then again on the final drop. I really love those sounds!
Zombie Village
"Zombie Village" was mostly recorded through hardware. I used the Juno 106 for the bassline. The kick drum + the trippy drums were also recorded with SP1200 and then post-processed in Ableton. The weird fx bits were made on the Minimoog Model D.
I had a lot of fun making "Zombie Village." I wanted it to be super weird and stripped down. One night my girlfriend came home late (and a little tipsy) and I asked her what I should name it. She just said “Zombie Village” and walked away, which was cool but weird. Turns out that was the bar she was getting at before coming home.
 I put it through an MS20M Filter and it just annihilated my whole apartment! I love experimenting with using different ways of achieving the sound I want. For me, experimentation is everything and "Mr.Bad" was exactly that. Everything was made digitally on this track except the bass that drops in the middle of the track. That was the Model D through Fab-filter’s Saturn. The weird synth lead was made with Reason's Subtractor, which I have been using since I first started making music. The midwest techno / Daniel Bell signature hi-hats were made with the DM 1 on my iPhone as well. I also used the Native Instruments Reaktor 6 for the synthetic tom-like drum sounds. I love Reaktor as it has so many weird sequencers within it.
Strength Feat Erica Dee
I was jamming on the DJS 1000 and then I had the idea of running a 909 with an 808 kick drum through the MS20 filter. It turned it into the biggest kick drum sound ever. I also used a Syncussion SY-1M Clone on the synth line and for some of the white noise as well.
Warped Soul
I made "Warped Soul" all digital with Ableton and Reason 5. All the bleepity bloops and crazy trippy synths were made with Subtractor. I made the drums with Redrum and Kong from Reason, then rewired them all into Ableton. This was one of the first tracks I finished from the album. I’m a huge fan of Reason because I can use it as a modular synth and mess around with the digital cables and connect them to different sequencers.
Baba Cosmo:
I made "Baba Cosmo" with the new Ableton 10 Wavetable synth. The basslines that sound like a fart noise were all made with Wavetable as well. The Middle-Eastern dreamy melody was created using the Juno 106 which is pure magic and I just love how it sits in the mix. The bass after the drop was made with the MS20M. The drums were made with Reason.
Lifted Feat Claire George:
"Lifted" was my first stab at making a non house/techno track. I had the goal to make a track for the album that wasn’t 4/4. I used pretty much everything analog except the bassline which was made with UHE’s Bazille. I’m a huge fan of UHE soft synth. The drums were all samples made from the SP 1200. You can really hear how punchy they are. When I made this track, I realized I could also turn it into a Drum n Bass track from the half time BPM and really just went for it. "Lifted" is a great example of letting go of rules and creating something without thinking. I wasn’t even planning to put any vocals.
