Type Classes in Scala
The Origins
The Motivation
The Pattern
The origins: type classes in Haskell
Start with an oridinary type system
- Base types:
3 :: Int
'c' :: Char
- Function type:
chr :: Int -> Char
-
Parametric polypmorphism:
map :: (a -> b) -> ([a] -> [b])
Type classes in Haskell
What about summing the elements of a list?
sum :: [a] -> a
Too General
-
intSum :: [Int] -> Int
floatSum :: [Float] -> Float
Too Specific
-
sum :: Num a => [a] -> a
Just Right
But Scala has classes and traits for polymorphism
Do we really need this? No, but we want it.
- Types can be made an instance of a class
outside of the type's definition.
- Dispatch on any argument or the return type.
- Can use multi dispatch (type relations?)
But How?
In Haskell, the type class gets compiled into a parameter passed
by the compiler.
sum :: Num a => [a] -> a
Becomes
sum :: Num -> [a] -> a
But How?
Scala lets the compiler pass implicit args, so that's how we'll
encode type classes
trait TraversableOnce[A] {
def sum[B >: A](implicit num: Numeric[B]): B = foldLeft(num.zero)(num.plus)
}
Notice the return type polymorphism: the Numeric instance
provides a value to use when the TraversableOnce is empty
But How?
Now make an implicit object of type
Numeric[T]
to use sum
with a collection
of T
case class Complex(r: Double, i: Double)
implicit object complexNum extends Numeric[Complex] {
def plus(x: Complex, y: Complex): Complex = Complex(x.r+y.r, x.i+y.i)
def zero = Complex(0, 0)
}
List(Complex(1, 0), Complex(2, 4), Complex(3, 3)).sum
// Complex(6, 7)
Examples: JSON
trait play.api.libs.json.Writes[-A] {
def writes(o: A): JsValue
}
def toJson[T](o: T)(implicit tjs: Writes[T]): JsValue
Examples: JSON
implicit def nelWrites[T: Writes]: Writes[NonEmptyList[T]] =
new Writes[NonEmptyList[T]]{
override def writes(nel: NonEmptyList[T]) = Json.toJson(nel.toList)
}
implicit val SegLabelWrites = Json.writes[SegmentAndLabel]
Why a typeclass?
Examples: JSON
trait play.api.libs.json.Reads[A] {
def reads(json: JsValue): JsResult[A]
}
def fromJson[T](json: JsValue)(implicit fjs: Reads[T]): JsResult[T]
implicit val SALParamsReads = Json.reads[SegmentAndLabelParams]
Examples: CanBuildFrom
Who uses .map
?
Who's seen this?
def map[B, That](f: (A) ⇒ B)(implicit bf: CanBuildFrom[Repr, B, That]): That
What's up with this type?
Examples: CanBuildFrom
trait TraversableLike[+A, +Repr] {
def map[B,That](f:(A) ⇒ B)(implicit bf:CanBuildFrom[Repr,B,That]):That
}
class List[+A] extends TraversableLike[A, List[A]]
trait CanBuildFrom[-From, -Elem, +To] {
def apply(from: From): Builder[Elem, To]
}
trait Builder[-Elem, +To] {
def +=(elem: Elem): Builder.this.type
def result(): To
}
Example: Rig
trait Rig[A] {
def zero: A
def one: A
def plus(x: A, y: A): A
def times(x: A, y: A): A
}
//Laws: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
// (a * b) * c = a * (b * c)
// a + b = b + a
// a + 0 = 0 + a = a = 1 * a = a * 1
// a * (b + c) = a*b + a*c
// (a + b)*c = a*c + b*c
Great for weighted graph traversal
Example: Rig
object ProbRig extends Rig[Double] {
def zero: 0.0
def one: 1.0
def plus(x, y): x + y
def times(x, y): x * y
}
object LogRig extends Rig[Double] {
def zero: -Infinity
def one: 0.0
def plus(x, y): log(exp(x) + exp(y))
def times(x, y): x + y
}
Example: Rig
object Tropical extends Rig[Double] {
def zero: -Infinity
def one: 0.0
def plus(x, y): max
def times(x, y): x + y
}
object Tropical3 extends Rig[(Double, Double, Double)] {
def zero: (-Infinity, -Infinity, -Infinity)
def one: (0.0, -Infinity, -Infinity)
def plus(x, y): max3(x._1, x._2, x._3, y._1, y._2, y._3)
def times(xA, y: A): (x._1 + y._1, x._2 + y._2, x._3 + y._3)
}

Golden Beginnings Golden Retriever Rescue (GBGRR),
established in May 1999, is a voluntary non-profit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) charitable organization. We rely on donations and fund raising activities, with all proceeds going directly to cover expenses for foster dogs and veterinary care for Goldens in need.
All founding members live in multi-Golden Retriever households and dearly love the breed. We are all volunteers who hold many different jobs in "real" life. We are not "professionals" in animal behavior, training, or health, although we do have contact with those who are.
Golden Beginnings Golden Retriever Rescue was formed:
- To provide shelter, veterinary care, and comprehensive evaluations for homeless, stray, abandoned, abused, and neglected Golden Retrievers;
- To provide a good quality of life for homeless Golden Retrievers of any age;
- To provide, through adoption, permanent loving homes for displaced and unwanted Golden Retrievers, whether young or old, sick or healthy;
- To seek to reduce the numbers of unwanted, abused and neglected Golden Retrievers through rehabilitation, education, and adoption;
- In accepting dogs into our program, preference is given to those facing euthanasia, to those living in shelters or pounds, and to those in untenable living situations. We also attempt to accommodate owner turn-ins, to keep those dogs from facing such fates and to allow them to go from one home to another with less disruption;
- To educate dog owners and the general public about responsible pet ownership, including spaying/neutering, training and humane care of Golden Retrievers and other pets;
- To cooperate with state and local authorities in the enforcement of laws related to the welfare of dogs;
- To protect the Golden Retriever from careless breeding in order to preserve the excellent qualities of this breed for future generations.
GBGRR will gladly cooperate with other rescue groups in neighboring areas to aid in the placement of Goldens into the appropriate loving family environments they deserve. Our coverage area overlaps several areas where Golden Retriever Rescue Groups are already in existence. Our hope is that by providing a large area of coverage, no Golden Retrievers will "fall through the cracks" when several groups are contacted, and no decision can be made as to which Rescue Group should handle certain rescue situations. One of our main goals is to have enough volunteers and foster homes state wide that all small towns and shelters will have someone to call when a Golden Retriever is in need.


A Multiverse of Glorious Documentation
Lucas Pluvinage, Tarides,
Jon Ludlam, University of Cambridge
Goals
- To produce correct, cross-referenced documentation for all versions of all packages
- To ensure this is automated, incremental, low latency and repeatable
- Provide a solid basis for further innovation, e.g. links to/from source, type-aware search, etc.
Odoc and HTML file placement
- Use odoc
- Odoc requires consistent set of packages compiled together
- Can’t have more than one version then!
- Solution: build docs separately then ‘union’ them
- Odoc 2.0 supports this
Universes
module M : Stdlib.Set.S with type t = mytype
Multiverse
"Blessed" packages
these chosen universes are called 'blessed' universes
Incremental Pipeline for Fast Builds
- Track the opam repository
- Solve for each package version
- Install each resolution and extract the installed files
- Compile the documentation for each package and extract the compiled files
- Generate the HTML files from the compiled files
Incremental Solver
- Key: opam repository commit id, list of tracked packages
- State: currently known resolutions
- value: resolutions for tracked packages
Preparation/Blessing
- Key: a resolution to install, the opam-repository commit id, and the commit of 'voodoo'
- State: external filesystem with the results of 'voodoo-prep'
- value: hash of the results of 'voodoo-prep'
When builds complete we choose the blessed universe:
- Most dependencies - including optional dependencies
- tie breaker: most reverse dependencies
"Compilation"
- Key: 'Preparation' step hash for the package, 'Compilation' step hash for the package's dependencies, voodoo-do and opam commit ids.
- State: external filesystem with the results of 'voodoo-do'
- value: hash of the output
HTML generation
- Key: Artifacts hash of the package's linked output
- State: external filesystem with the results of 'voodoo-gen'
- value: hash of the HTML files
Atomic updates
- Distinguish between breaking and non-breaking changes
- Non-breaking changes (e.g. new package added) can be done non-atomically
- Breaking changes need atomic updates - via symlink on server
Stats
- 50G of HTML files
- 3300 packages, totalling 17400 versions (~2K opam installation failures)
- 18600 versions living in parallel universes
- 3.3M documentation pages
- Package having the largest number of parallel universes: logs.0.7.0 (209 universes)
- 6 hours build on the ocamllabs cluster
Further work
- Optimizing job duration and data movement
- Towards a formalisation of data pipelines ?
- Public APIs to access the CI output and build new frontends
- VSCode integration
- Search
- Comparison/coalescing of different universes
- Diffs between versions

Frequently Asked Questions
Why Neutronium?
The idea behind Neutronium is to provide a HTML-CSS-Javascript UI engine empowered with two way bindings supporting all features of WPF MVVM bindings. This way Neutronium can be as "replacement" of WPF.
How Neutronium compares with other libraries?
Neutronium is electron for .NET? Well, kind of. Neutronium however is a higher abstraction so that you don't need to care about Chromium implementation such as renderer or browser processes.
All are libraries offering binding to Chromium using proprietary binding (Awesomium), or Chromium Embedded Framework bindings. All of them present much lower level of integration than Neutronium. Note that internally Neutronium uses ChromiumFx.
Provides bindings to Chromium Embedded Framework for NET/.NET Core. Main difference with Neutronium: Chromely is a cross-platform solution whereas Neutronium is currently only for windows. Same as frameworks below, this is a simpler integration compared to Neutronium.
Provides react to WPF/UWP bindings. Almost the contrary approach as Neutronium as react-to-native converts react to native UI component whereas Neutronium uses embedded web browser.
Why vue.js?
Vue.js is providing C# to javascript binding in Neutronium application. Neutronium Core provide a generic architecture (see more here) where javascript framework can be plugged in. This framework should provide reactivity with two way bindings and listeners patterns and should not be to opinionated in order to fit Neutronium MVVM workflow.
First version of neutronium was only using knockout.js which is compliant with these features.
Then appeared Vue.js which is also has same prerequisites but quickly with a much larger community. Vue.js beyond reactivity provides great tooling, powerful template engine, router, etc... As such Vue.js is the preferred option to develop with Neutronium.
Is Neutronium cross-platform?
No, Currently Neutronium is windows only.
Whereas Neutronium infrastructure is currently build for .Net 4.7.2 and .Net Standard 2.0, there is currently no Web engine binding for .Net.Core.
This may be provided in the future thought check this issue for complete discussion.
Is it possible to configure same origin policy
or other browser features in a Neutronium application?
How to implement a frameless HTML window?
1. In the HTML markup:
Since version 0.6.0, Neutronium implements out of the box support for CSS property -webkit-app-region: drag
:
<div style="-webkit-app-region: drag">
</div>
This property make the whole div draggable.
You have to use no-drag
value for buttons or other clickable regions with the draggable elements:
button {
-webkit-app-region: no-drag;
}
2. Window Buttons:
In order to help implement window interaction, Neutronium.WPF provides WindowViewModel that exposes the Close
, Minize
, Maximize
commands so that you can use it as a ViewModel for buttons
//window is the WPF window
var viewModel = new WindowViewModel(window);
3. WPF window:
To make a WPF window chromeless, Neutronium.WPF provides Chromeless behavior:
<Window x:Class="CodeVizualization.MainWindow"
xmlns:neutronium="clr-namespace:Neutronium.WPF;assembly=Neutronium.WPF"
xmlns:i="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Interactivity; assembly=System.Windows.Interactivity">
<i:Interaction.Behaviors>
<neutronium:Chromeless />
</i:Interaction.Behaviors>
This behavior creates a frameless window and takes care of expected drag-and-drop behavior.
See Example.ChromiumFx.Vue.Chromeless example for a working example of frameless Neutronium Window.
Codegravity and Neutronium.SPA.Demo projects are also frameless window implementations.
How to display Window only when HTML control is rendering?
HTMLViewControl
and HTMLWindow
both have a IsHTMLLoaded
property that is set to true when HTML is rendered, so it is possible to bind the window visibility to this property.
Furthermore Neutronium.WPF provide a BoolToHiddenConverter
that performs adequate conversion from IsHTMLLoaded
to visibility transforming false
into Hidden
(standard BooleanToVisibility
converts false into Collapsed
).
Ex:
<Window x:Class="MainWindow"
xmlns:neutronium="clr-namespace:Neutronium.WPF;assembly=Neutronium.WPF">
<Window.Resources>
<neutronium:BoolToHiddenConverter x:Key="BoolToHidden"/>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
<neutronium:HTMLViewControl x:Name="HtmlView" RelativeSource="View\index.html" />
</Grid>
<Window.Visibility>
<Binding ElementName="HtmlView" Path="IsHTMLLoaded" Converter="{StaticResource BoolToHidden}"/>
</Window.Visibility>
Is it possible to print the content of the page?
With CEF APIs, it is possible to customize context menu and add a print command back to a Neutronium application.
To do so,
- register an event on browser OnDisplay
private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
HTMLViewControl.OnDisplay += WcBrowser_OnDisplay;
}
- Add an event on
ContextMenuHandler OnBeforeContextMenu
private void WcBrowser_OnDisplay(object sender, Neutronium.Core.Navigation.DisplayEvent e)
{
var windowCfx = wcBrowser.WPFWebWindow as IWPFCfxWebWindow;
var cfxBrowser = windowCfx.ChromiumWebBrowser;
cfxBrowser.ContextMenuHandler.OnBeforeContextMenu += ContextMenuHandler_OnBeforeContextMenu;
}
- In
ContextMenuHandler_OnBeforeContextMenu
add the Print command
private void ContextMenuHandler_OnBeforeContextMenu(object sender, Chromium.Event.CfxOnBeforeContextMenuEventArgs e)
{
var model = e.Model;
model.InsertItemAt(0,(int)ContextMenuId.MENU_ID_PRINT, "Print");
model.InsertSeparatorAt(1);
}
Result:
See Example.ChromiumFX.Vue.SOP for working example.

class
pcy.rule_based.dictionary.autocomplete.
Autocomplete
(dictionary)¶ Bases:
object
Make an Autocomplete class to autocomplete incomplete words using a dictionary tree.
The Autocomplete class receives a Dictionary tree in its __init__ method. To get the Dictionary tree, we need to use the DictionaryGenerator class.
To generate word suggestions, you need to call the .autocomplete method. Look at the example below to understand everything.
- Code Example:
from pcy.rule_based.dictionary import Autocomplete # here the tree is the dictionary auto = Autocomplete(tree) # calling the method to get complete words based on the incomplete word # here the word "hous" is the incomplete word and 10 is the number of suggestions to return words = auto.autocomplete("hous", 10) # printing the words print(words) # --> ['housage', 'housal', 'housatonic', 'house', 'houseball', 'houseboat', 'houseboating', 'houseboats', # 'houseboy', 'houseboys', 'housebote']
- Parameters
dictionary (node) – Instance of the node class. It can be created using the DictionaryGenerator class.
- Raises
ValueError – When the provided dictionary is not valid

A brief (!?!) history of a website generate tool ... as handed down from generation to generation :-)
Once upon a time, there was a mock objects library called DynaMock written by Nat, living on mockobjects.com.
Along came Joe, and decided to fork in an attempt to rebrand and ditch the legacy. And so jMock war born. Joe didn't actually do much code, he just forked Nat's code and launched the new jMock website. Joe didn't even do that very well and because he was feeling so lazy he used Maven to create a very bad and unusable website.
Meanwhile, Nat was doing great things with jMock but hated the website. So he spent some time analysing user requirements for building a more useful website and came up with a new design. Nat built this site upon some little Ruby scripts called skinner.rb and xemplate.rb (found here). This was a few years ago. And the result is the jMock website.
Along came Joe (again!) and really liked the look and navigation of the jMock website and wanted a similar thing for his new project XStream. However, for ego stroking reasons ;) , thought it could be done pretty easily as a 'mashup' between two of his existing opensource projects. So Joe reimplemented it in Java using SiteMesh and XStream. He called it MiniMesh (historians will be able to uncover the original code here). And the result was the current XStream website. --- uhmm ... starting to look familiar?
Not long after, Dan was also looking for a website for his opensource project, JBehave. He liked Ruby and grabbed Nat's scripts. And the result is the JBehave website
Meanwhile, Nat was making lots of improvements to his scripts, but Joe and Dan were missing out. A little later, Dan started another opensource project, ProxyToys. Jörg stepped up and drove it. Coincidentally, Jörg had also been driving XStream so he took Joe's fork of Nat's website and used that. And the result is the ProxyToys website
Wait a minute! Jörg and Mauro (who was also driving XStream) noticed a lot of forking and duplication going on. So they created XSite, which was a fork of Joe's Java fork of Nat's Ruby code. This was a tool people could use to build similar sites. And the result is the XSite website
Meanwhile, Shane, who was involved with JBehave, had a similar idea and forked Dan's fork of Nat's fork and worked into his BuildMaster project: And the result is the BuildMaster website

You can define style rules based on the class attribute of the elements. All the elements having that class will be formatted according to the defined rule.
This is a page with class attribute set to "class1"
This is a second page with class attribute set to 'class2'
You can define style rules based on the id attribute of the elements.Since it is preferable to define unique id for each element you can use the id as a selector to style a specific element, such as styling some p tag among many p tags


Sketch Symbol import
Beta Status
Please make sure to read through docs before you start using the Sketch importer!
This feature is currently in beta, has a number of known limitations, and has not had a lot of user testing. That said, we think it's already quite neat and we'd love to get your feedback on it (so get in touch through the forums and community slack!)
The importer works both on macOS and Windows.
Workflow
Because Fuse has a complex and flexible UI system, it's not a realistic goal to import a Sketch file and turn it into a complete Fuse app. Rather, we have aimed for a more meaningful integration with Sketch that leverages the best qualities of both programs.
This integration will import your Sketch Symbols and interpret them into Fuse ux:Classes
. Then allowing you to quickly assemble these components using Fuse's layout and animation into a prototype or app. Any changes made to the Symbols in Sketch, will be reflected in Fuse. This allows you to iterate extremely quickly on an idea. Note: This integration is one-way ie: changes made in Sketch will reflect in Fuse, but changes made in Fuse won't reflect in Sketch. Your Sketch files will remain the source of truth for these components.
This workflow enables testing and iterating on by quickly creating prototypes. Once a direction has been decided, those components can be developed to be more dynamic and responsive to user input.
Getting Started
Watching a sketch file.
In order to make the integration work, there are a few steps to follow:
From Fuse Studio
- Select
Sketch import
from theProject
-menu - Add the path(s) to the Sketch-file(s) you would like to convert Sketch Symbols from. Use the browse button or type the path in directly and press the
+
-button. - Click
Ok
-button to save the list of Sketch files to watch.
This create a file in the project folder with the file-type .sketchFiles
, which looks something like this:
[
"MySketchFile.sketch", //Inside the app folder
"Assets/MySketchFile.sketch", //Relative to the App folder
"/Users/Me/SomeFolder/MySketchFolder/MySketchFile.sketch" //Absolute file path
]
You can also manually create/edit this file
Manually create the sketchFiles-file
- In the same folder as your
.unoproj
file, you will need to create a file with the file-type.sketchFiles
. This file will need to have the same name as your.unoproj
. For instance:MyApp.unoproj.
will needMyApp.sketchFiles
- Inside this file you need to specify a list of paths to Sketch files you want to import. The file paths can be relative or absolute so you can link to a Sketch file anywhere on your system. Here is an example:
Starting Fuse will import all the Symbols in the specified Sketch files into your project. The imported Classes have the naming convention Sketch.ClassName.ux
to distinguish them from other ux:Classes
. You will see them if you open Fuse Studio, under the Classes tab, or in the SketchSymbols
folder that has been created in your project. You can include them in your app the same way you would any other class: <Sketch.ClassName/>
All changes saved to those Sketch files will reflect in Fuse.
Best practices
Editing generated UX
In the current iteration of the importer, any edits you make to the generated UX files will be overwritten the next time that Sketch file has been saved. Currently, the best way to break this link is to manually copy the UX into a new class with a different name and edit that.
Naming
- Make sure all your symbol names are unique. If there are two or more symbols with the same name, the importer will only import one of them.
- Symbol names cannot contain any special characters,symbols or spaces. Numbers and
_
are supported but the symbol name cannot begin with a number. - If you want your text objects to be imported as a
ux:Property
(so you can re-use them in the same way as text overrides) you need to ensure that the layer names are unique. Text elements that have the same name won't be interpreted as aux:Property
, they will just be imported as plain Text elements.
Known limitations
There are some aspects of Sketch that we either can't represent in UX or haven't yet added support for.
General features
- Library symbols The importer does not handle references to symbols in other files. So if you have references to symbols in a separate Library file, those symbols won't be recognised. The solution is to
Detach Symbol
in Sketch manually.
Layers
These properties are not supported on any type of layer (shapes, groups, images etc)
- Export options for all types of layers are ignored.
- Blur settings are currently ignored for all blurs (gaussian, motion, zoom and background blur).
- Blending Modes are currently not supported. Objects will be imported but the blending mode will be ignored.
- Masking Fuse doesn't support masking in the same way Sketch does. Masked shapes are ignored.
Fills
- Single color and linear gradient are the only supported fills at the moment. In other words: image, pattern, noise, radial gradient and angular gradients are not supported.
Shapes
- Compound / combined shapes, shapes created with union, intersection and other boolean operators are not supported. A possible workaround is to flatten them to a single path when possible. Another option would be to create a copy of the shape and flatten it to a bitmap, which can then be used in Fuse
- Rounded corners on path/shape vertices are not supported except for on rectangles. If you need rounding on a general shape you can use
convert path to outlines
and manually round the corners in Sketch. - Border placement (center, inside, outside) is ignored and the border is always centered.
- Border styles like ends, joins, start arrow, end arrow, dashes and gaps are not supported. Rounded end caps are not supported on all target platforms.
Images
- Color adjustment of images are ignored.
Text/font
- Text on path is not supported. The text and path are converted, but text doesn't follow the path.
- Fonts Using custom fonts in Fuse requires having copies of the
.ttf
or.otf
files in your project folder. We don't currently support automatic adding of these fonts from the Sketch file to the project folder, so all custom fonts get stripped in the conversion and the system font is used. You can manually set up a global font and apply that to text instances later. - Text styles / decoration are ignored. Only text content, font size and color is converted.
- Text shadows currently not supported and also missing a proper warning.
Shadows
- Inner shadows are not supported.

Metadata Analysis Workshop
In 2017, the Metadata Working Group worked to expand on a metadata analysis workshop first given by DPLA at DPLA2017. This work was a collaborative effort with several of the original creators of the workshop.
The revised workshop was first offered at DLFForum2017. It aimed to introduce library, archive, and museum metadata practitioners and technologists with the basic skills and knowledge needed to assess metadata quality using data analysis tools. The updated curriculum included an introduction to the Metadata Assessment Framework developed by the Metadata Working Group and will close by helping participants strategize ways to bring these tools back into their daily workflows and continue to train others they work with to do the same. A Github repository with the material from the workshop can be found here.
An updated version of the workshop was also presented at Learn @ DLF in 2018. The Github repository with the material from the workshop can be found here.


This example demonstrates a tool that can be built with an intermediate-level knowledge of the MyGeotab system. It is suitable for those who have a good understanding of the Geotab ecosystem and are comfortable with the MyGeotab SDK and leveraging the MyGeotab APIs within their projects.


Working remotely means working without a central office space.
Manifesto
There are many different ways to work remotely and to coordinate. The core part for sure is the location, but a connected part are office hours. Sharing of information is also pretty important.
The Remote Only Manifesto summarizes 9 core ideas of Remote Only work.
Remote Only work promotes:
- Hiring and working from all over the world instead of from a central location.
- Flexible working hours over set working hours.
- Writing down and recording knowledge over oral explanations.
- Written down processes over on-the-job training.
- Public sharing of information over need-to-know access.
- Opening every document to change by anyone over top down control of documents.
- Asynchronous communication over synchronous communication.
- The results of work over the hours put in.
- Formal communication channels over informal communication channels.
Advantages
For You
- Live where you want
- No commute: You are instantly at work. This gives you way more time
- Better Diet: You can cook at home. What you like, when you like it.
- Work when you want: The sleep rythms of all of us differ. I'm pretty sure that having more flexibility in the working hours has the possiblity to improve health for many people.
- Dress/style as you want: If you work at office and it's 30°C, you might still have to wear long trousers. Even if your office does not have air conditioning. And no makeup is necessary.
- No distraction: You are in charge of your concetration. You can switch off social media and communication channels and just focus on work.
- Diseases: People tend to go to work even when they feel slightly not well. So every year, diseases like the flue spread. If you work from home, you're save from that.
For the Company
- Talent Pool: Candidates can join from all over the world instead of from a central location. This makes it easier to grow and might drop the salary cost a bit.
- Worker satisfaction:
- Turnover: If people enjoy working for the company, they keep working for the company.
- Quality of Work: Being proud in your work is important. It helps to keep people being motivated to keep up with the state of the art. The fix mistakes they made in the past.
- No office: You don't have to pay it. This might be a huge cost factor. Also all of the things connected to it, like cleaning or equipment.
- 24/7 support is cheaper: Having 24/7 support or emergency teams who can fix stuff immediately is expensive. People don't want to be woken up at night to work. If your workers are all around the world, you can make use of the timezone differences.
- Diseases: If the flue spreads in the office, you might suddenly loose a complete team of developers. Or maybe the site reliability team. If you let them work from home primarily, then the chance of this is way lower.
Challenges
For You
- Distraction: You might work from home or from another place where not everything is work.
- Work-Life Balance: It might be hard to stop working, as the boundaries get less clear. No office can mean everywhere is your office. No office hours can mean you work all the time.
- Loneliness: You don't have co-workers.
For the Company
- Control: Are people really working? Are they working the time you pay them for? This might be something you might be worried about. On the one hand, I'd say that is the wrong approach. You should not care about time, but about return on investment. Do you get the same / more / less for the money you pay?
- Coordination: Who is working on what? Do people work on the same thing?
Tools
- Chat: Slack, HipChat
- Ticket System: Jira
- Documentation:
- Office: G-Suite, Office 365
- Cloud: Amazon, Google, Microsoft
Companies
There seem to be quite a couple companies which have significant remote work part:
- remoteonly.org
- workremotely.co
- yanirs: Established remote companies
- Remote Work Hub
- Top 100 Remote Companies Hiring
Some of them are pretty well known and of very different size. All of them seem to have a product which is mainly on web:
| Company | Employees | Business/products | Tech stack/skills | Jobs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AirBnB | 12736 | Apartment Sharing | JS, Ruby | Jobs |
| Auth0 | 502 | Identity Management | Node | Jobs |
| Balsamiq | 40 | Wireframing | JavaScript | Jobs |
| Gitlab | 795 | Git Hosting | Git, Ruby | Jobs |

Strictly’s Anton du Beke would welcome same-sex pairings
Strictly Come Dancing’s Anton du Beke has said he would be “very happy” to be paired with a male dance partner.
The BBC is reportedly considering introducing same-sex couples next year, while rival show Dancing On Ice will make the move in its forthcoming series.
Asked if he would be happy to be paired with a man, du Beke told the Mirror: “It’s just dancing, isn’t it? Fred Astaire danced with Gene Kelly. I’d have been very happy to dance with Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire, I don’t mind.”
The 53-year-old recalled dancing with his fellow professional Vincent Simone, who left Strictly in 2012, adding: “This isn’t going to be new for me – I’ve already done it.”
du Beke, who has been on Strictly since the show began in 2004, spoke after the BBC received 189 complaints following a dance routine involving Graziano Di Prima and Johannes Radebe on the November 3 show.
“Strictly is a bit of a mirror on society, actually. And it should be,” du Beke, who is paired with EastEnders star Emma Barton, said.
“Stuff like Johannes dancing with Graziano – it’s not such a big deal. As a dancer it isn’t even a thing. It’s quite normal because it’s dance and that’s what dance is. It’s creative.”
Strictly judge Bruno Tonioli labelled the complaints about Strictly’s first same-sex dance routine “very sad”.
He tweeted: “It’s hard to believe after such progress in society and many other topics going on that (around) 200 people felt so upset they complained when two men danced with each other.”


“Tsa is an organization that prides itself on preparing students for the work field by exposing them to the technology and work effort need in the real world as well as gives them skills needed in the job world.”

As I write, the result of the general election has been confirmed as a hung parliament, and it is not yet clear who will form the government. While pundits babble, let us take pause, and note that 6 May 2010 will go down in history, or at least in the Hooting Yard Book o' Days (which amounts to the same thing) as the day Lembit Öpik lost his seat. Note that umlaut!
But as we hang our heads, and weep, remember that every cloud has a silver lining. Mr Öpik is now free to concentrate on other things, and I fully expect him to pursue a glittering media career. In a few weeks time, we will be unable to turn on a television or radio or i-hub without seeing the Estonian Anagram (bile möp kit?) presenting, for example, “The Lembit Öpik Meteorite Collision Show, With Russian Bimbos!”

AngularJS is a structural framework for dynamic web apps. It lets you use HTML as your template language and lets you extend HTML's syntax to express your application's components clearly and succinctly. AngularJS's data binding and dependency injection eliminate much of the code you would otherwise have to write. And it all happens within the browser, making it an ideal partner with any server technology. AngularJS is what HTML would have been, had it been designed for applications. HTML is a great declarative language for static documents. It does not contain much in the way of creating applications, and as a result building web applications is an exercise in what do I have to do to trick the browser into doing what I want? Learn more.
Angular is a platform that makes it easy to build applications with the web. Angular combines declarative templates, dependency injection, end to end tooling, and integrated best practices to solve development challenges. Angular empowers developers to build applications that live on the web, mobile, or the desktop. Learn more.


United Auto Workers president resigns amid corruption probe: source
(Reuters) - United Auto Workers (UAW) President Gary Jones resigned ON Wednesday after being linked to an ongoing corruption probe by U.S. federal officials, a union source confirmed to Reuters.
Jones’ lawyer Bruce Maffeo told the Detroit News that the union president had decided to resign effective immediately. Maffeo did not respond to repeated requests from Reuters, and a UAW spokesman said he could not confirm the resignation. The decision came hours after the union filed charges under its bylaws against Jones in a move that could have led to his removal from office.

There is no pitchman charismatic enough, no paid spokesperson

The legs on this thing almost feel like a cruel joke. Sure, you've got a mobility that you could never get with a tradition sleeping bag, but what good is that without hands? Without the ability to pee?
But perhaps I'm missing the point: while the Snuggie is a instrument of laziness, the Japanese Walkable Sleeping Bag is a tool for self-improvement.

Indonesian palm oil exec arrested over journalist killings
JAKARTA, Nov 9 — An Indonesian palm oil executive has been arrested for allegedly ordering the killing of two activist journalists who were mediating a land dispute between his company and local residents, police said today.
Maraden Sianipar’s body was found last week in a ditch near a palm plantation in Labuhan Batu in North Sumatra province.
Police found the remains of his colleague, Maratua Siregar, in the same area a day later. Both had been stabbed multiple times.
Today, North Sumatra authorities said they had arrested businessman Wibharry Padmoasmolo for allegedly masterminding the plot by paying nearing US$3,000 to four men to commit the killings.
Padmoasmolo owns a firm that produces palm oil — a widely used vegetable oil found in everything from soap to chocolate — which was in a dispute with locals that the two victims were advocating for, police said.
The killings were aimed at stopping the pair’s involvement, according to authorities, who added that Padmoasmolo has denied owning the firm under questioning.
In all, five people have been arrested in connection with the murder plot and police said they’re still searching for several more suspects still at large.
“We are looking for the three, while the five other suspects have been detained for further questioning,” said North Sumatra police chief Agus Andrianto.
Victims Sianipar and Maratua worked together for a local online news portal before going freelance in 2017.
A friend of Siregar said they had recently become known for their activism in land disputes — a common source of conflict across the resource-rich South-east Asian archipelago.
The friend said Siregar was active in an organisation that advocated for residents in the dispute.
Many cases of violence against journalists in Indonesia go unsolved, according to the Independent Journalists Alliance, which has reported at least two dozen cases this year alone.
Indonesia is ranked 124th out of 180 countries on the 2019 World Press Freedom Index published by Reporters Without Borders. — AFP

KUNDUN (director: Martin Scorsese; cast: Tenzin Thuthob Tsarong, Gyurme Tethong, Tencho Gyalpo, Tsewang Migyur Khangsar, Geshi Yeshi Gyatso, 1997)
One may justifiably ask, as many critics did, what was Scorsese thinking when he made Kundun? Is he capable of making a film on a subject he has only a limited knowledge of?
The first question is a snap to answer, he was thinking about the 14th Dalai Lama and the suffering of his people. Thusly, he would make a political statement about the Tibetan situation and show the outrages their culture is going through in the hands of the conquering oppressors, the Chinese communists. The style of the film is semi - documentary, allowing nonprofessional actors to dominate the film (they did a great job).
The film begins with the joy and pride of the 14th Dalai Lama being chosen at the age of two in 1937 and ends on the sour note of his forced departure in 1959.
In between, the story is told from the Dalai Lama's point of view, as he grows up quickly, faced with worldly decisions for his people at the tender age of 14. His sense of reality is enhanced by his inner experiences in the form of dreams and meditation. His nonviolence is steadfast, despite reasons to feel anger at the Chinese for their killings and barbarous attitude and insulting comments about his country. What is most brilliant, is the camera work that focuses clearly on all the chaos and religious nuances, and records them in a way acting could not duplicate.
The shortcomings of this film may or may not be in the second question asked: Whether Scorsese is capable of gleaming the truths of Tibetan Buddhism, since any film about Tibet has to comprehend the influence religion plays on its people. I think Scorsese wants this film to be seen not necessarily as a religious experience, but as a spiritual calling that people of different faiths from all over the world can share in. This film is noncommercial, thereby it doesn't have to satisfy the wants of those who demand to see a film in a prescribed way. That this film is successful and worth seeing, becomes apparent, especially, when you compare it with the other recent film that tried to explore the Tibetan situation, SEVEN YEARS IN TIBET; and it should become obvious how Scorsese's film towers over that one in perspective and feeling. For Christ's sake, the other humanitarian film used a Nazi as the hero of the story, which made it very difficult to feel very trusting of the film's aims, especially since no one even mentioned a little thing like a holocaust taking place.
The weakness of Kundun is that since Scorsese wasn't confident or knowledgable enough about Tibet, he had to use the Dalai Lama as a source of reference for the film; and this shows, the film might be authentic in scope, but it lacks the artistic spark a great work of art must have, instead, this well - meaning presentation gets bogged down in its own propaganda and the movie gets blandly trapped in its own goody - two - shoe approach. Now, the exception to this, is that marvelously original Dalai Lama dream sequence, the one of impending doom for his country as he dreams of the monks in their red robes all lying dead in the field. We see a human being who is concerned that maybe he doesn't know everything.
I, for one, never fully trust those who are held up on a pedestal as incarnations of what is good. And films that lose their ability to penetrate all that makes things tick inside their characters, lose a certain amount of integrity.
Though, Scorsese's film is not a masterpiece, it certainly accomplished what he wanted it to do, and therefore with that limited objective in mind, I find it easy to recommend this film (even though I consider the HORSE THIEF to be the best film on Tibet to date, but I realize that the subject matter of this film is exceedingly important and should be seen by a wide range of people. After all, an entire culture is being wiped out in front of our eyes, and people must be made aware of it. The media has not done a good job in this regard, and maybe a film such as this can somehow compensate somewhat for that past neglect.

java.lang.Object java.awt.Image
public abstract class Image
The abstract class Image
is the superclass of all
classes that represent graphical images. The image must be
obtained in a platform-specific manner.
| Field Summary | |
|---|---|
protected float |
accelerationPriority
Priority for accelerating this image. |
static int |
SCALE_AREA_AVERAGING
Use the Area Averaging image scaling algorithm. |
static int |
SCALE_DEFAULT
Use the default image-scaling algorithm. |
static int |
SCALE_FAST
Choose an image-scaling algorithm that gives higher priority to scaling speed than smoothness of the scaled image. |
static int |
SCALE_REPLICATE
Use the image scaling algorithm embodied in the ReplicateScaleFilter class. |
static int |
SCALE_SMOOTH
Choose an image-scaling algorithm that gives higher priority to image smoothness than scaling speed. |
static Object |
UndefinedProperty
The UndefinedProperty object should be returned whenever a
property which was not defined for a particular image is fetched. |

abstract void |
flush()
Flushes all resources being used by this Image object. |
float |
getAccelerationPriority()
Returns the current value of the acceleration priority hint. |
ImageCapabilities |
getCapabilities(GraphicsConfiguration gc)
Returns an ImageCapabilities object which can be inquired as to the capabilities of this Image on the specified GraphicsConfiguration. |
abstract Graphics |
getGraphics()
Creates a graphics context for drawing to an off-screen image. |
abstract int |
getHeight(ImageObserver observer)
Determines the height of the image. |
abstract Object |
getProperty(String name,
ImageObserver observer)
Gets a property of this image by name. |

public abstract Object getProperty(String name, ImageObserver observer)
Individual property names are defined by the various image
formats. If a property is not defined for a particular image, this
method returns the UndefinedProperty
object.
If the properties for this image are not yet known, this method
returns null
, and the ImageObserver
object is notified later.
The property name "comment"
should be used to store
an optional comment which can be presented to the application as a
description of the image, its source, or its author.

public Image getScaledInstance(int width, int height, int hints)
Image
object is returned which will render
the image at the specified width
and
height
by default. The new Image
object
may be loaded asynchronously even if the original source image
has already been loaded completely.
If either width
or height
is a negative number then a value is
substituted to maintain the aspect ratio of the original image
dimensions. If both width
and height
are negative, then the original image dimensions are used.
width
- the width to which to scale the image.height
- the height to which to scale the image.hints
- flags to indicate the type of algorithm to use
for image resampling.
IllegalArgumentException
- if width
or height
is zero.SCALE_DEFAULT

public abstract void flush()
This method always leaves the image in a state such that it can be reconstructed. This means the method applies only to cached or other secondary representations of images such as those that have been generated from an ImageProducer (read from a file, for example). It does nothing for off-screen images that have only one copy of their data.
public ImageCapabilities getCapabilities(GraphicsConfiguration gc)
gc
- a GraphicsConfiguration
object. A value of null
for this parameter will result in getting the image capabilities
for the default GraphicsConfiguration
.

public void setAccelerationPriority(float priority)
priority
- a value between 0 and 1, inclusive, where higher
values indicate more importance for acceleration. A value of 0
means that this Image should never be accelerated. Other values
are used simply to determine acceleration priority relative to other
Images.
IllegalArgumentException
- if priority
is less
than zero or greater than 1.public float getAccelerationPriority()
