from timeseries_fastai.imports import *
from timeseries_fastai.core import *
ucr_path = get_ucr()
grabing th data:
df_train, df_test = load_df_ucr(ucr_path, 'StarLightCurves')
df_train.head()
As you can see, this is a tensor (continous variables) per row, and the last col is the target Category.
x_cols = df_train.columns[slice(0,-1)].to_list()
x_cols[0:5]
from timeseries_fastai.tabular import *
df_main = stack_train_valid(df_train, df_test)
df_main.head()
We build a TSPandas object that is very very similar to the TabularPandas from fastai2.tabular.core
splits = [range_of(df_train), list(range(len(df_train), len(df_main)))]
to = TSPandas(df_main, Normalize, x_names=x_cols, y_names='target', splits=splits)
We build the DataLoaders:
dls = to.dataloaders(32, 128)
My very basic performance test to cycle the dls
def cycle_dl(dl):
for x,y in iter(dl):
pass
We will benchmark the valid set that has 8000 items:
len(dls.valid_ds)
%time cycle_dl(dls.valid)
Here we define a more fastaish approch, where we construct a new class for timeseries called TSeries, and we sue the TSDataLoaders to build our data. This is defined on the
notebook 01
from this repo. It is a very simple DataBlock build method, the underlying data source is a pandas DataFrame that we ingest row by row
from timeseries_fastai.data import *
tsdls = TSDataLoaders.from_dfs(df_train, df_test, x_cols=x_cols, label_col='target', bs=32, val_bs=128)
%time cycle_dl(tsdls.valid)
it is very slow.
tfl = TfmdLists(df_test, [noop])
tfl[0]
extract the x:
def get_x(row): return row.values[:1024].astype(np.float32)
get_x(df_test.iloc[0])
tfl = TfmdLists(df_main, [get_x])
tfl[0]
extract y:
def get_y(row): return row.values[1024]
get_y(df_test.iloc[0])
tfl_y = TfmdLists(df_test, [get_y])
tfl_y[0]
let's check this:
%time tfl_y = TfmdLists(df_test, [get_y])
SLOW: It is the Categorize setup:
%time tfl_y = TfmdLists(df_test, [get_y, Categorize])
cat = Categorize()
cat.setup(L(get_y(row) for index, row in df_test.iterrows()))
pipe = Pipeline([get_y, cat])
%time _ =[pipe(df_test.iloc[i]) for i in range_of(df_test)]
ds = Datasets(df_test, [[get_x], [get_y,Categorize]])
ds[0]
dl = DataLoader(ds, bs=128)

Unsafe at any speed. American cars were a hazard to their drivers in the fifthies. This was an opportunity to the German manufacturers, from crumple zones to seat belts, they created robust cars with far less fatalities and conquered the market.
Again, American companies are “Unsafe at any speed”. This time it is regarding the use of data, data analysis, artificial intelligence, machine learning, etc. The privacy and safety of the users is not important to thos companies. This is yet another time, European companies can benefit from this attitude. We can build companies that do care about the privacy of their users. This requires investments in technology as well. Those investments range from building end-to-end encryption systems to the advanced use of homomorphic encryption (see Forbes).
The relationship with (personal) data with Chinese companies and products is just as troublesome. There can be backdoors and in general there has been much more progress on the hardware front than on the software front in China. This means that there is not yet so much attention to the hackability of devices or the privacy aspects of the data being processed by the devices. Compared to both American and Chinese companies, European companies have a strategic advantage.

Built in matchers
be_something, for any arbitrary something:
@obj.should be_something # passes if @obj.something? is true
have(n).somethings, for any arbitrary something:
@obj.should have(3).somethings # passes if @obj.somethings.length == 3
change {something}
lambda<EMAIL_ADDRESS>change {@var} # passes lambda { }.should change {@var} # fails @var = 1 lambda<EMAIL_ADDRESS>change {@var}.from(1).to(2) # passes

DEF_MATCHER
A simple example first:
def_matcher :be_nil do |given, matcher, args|
given.nil?
end
nil.should be_nil
The def_matcher
method is really simple to use.
You just provide it the name of your matcher and attach a block that defines it’s behavior.
The return value of the block is a boolean that
actually will be expected (should) or not expected (should_not
).
There are three arguments available inside the matcher block:
given
This is the object that has received the should or should_not
.
matcher
This is the matcher object. You can set the failure messages as attributes on this object:
def_matcher :matcher_name do |given, matcher, args|
matcher.positive_msg =
"You can see me if I am applied to should and I return a false value"
matcher.negative_msg =
"You can see me if I am applied to should_not and I return a true value"
end
It holds a list of all methods that have been called on the matcher (for chaining):
obj.should matcher_name.some_method(4,5,6) {"and a block"}.second
def_matcher :matcher_name do |given, matcher, args|
# this is an ostruct that holds all information
# about the first method 'some_method'
matcher.msgs[0]
# this is an ostruct that holds all information
# about the second method 'second'
matcher.msgs[1]
# this is the name of the first method:
matcher.msgs[0].name #=> :some_method
# this is a list of arguments that
# have been passed to the first method:
matcher.msgs[0].args #=> [4,5,6]
# this is the block that was attached:
matcher.msgs[0].block #=> proc {"and a block"}
end
If there is a failure, it knows where:
def_matcher :matcher_name do |given, matcher, args|
matcher.loc #=> "./some/where.rb:55 ... "
end
args
This is a list of all arguments that have been applied to the matcher. Like the 6 in:
(3*3).should_not be(6)
More def_matcher examples
A little more complex:
def_matcher :be_in_range do |given, matcher, args|
range = args[1] ? (args[0]..args[1]) : args[0]
matcher.positive_msg =
"expected #{given} to be in range (#{range})"
matcher.negative_msg =
"expected #{given} not to be in range (#{range})"
range.include?(given)
end
2.should be_in_range(1,3)
"m".should be_in_range("a".."z")
Matchers may receive messages:
def_matcher :have do |given, matcher, args|
number = args[0]
actual = given.send(matcher.msgs[0].name).length
matcher.positive_msg = "Expected #{given} to have #{actual}, but found #{number} "
actual == number
end
class Thing
def widgets
@widgets ||= []
end
end
@thing.should have(3).widgets

PLANET SICK-BOY: http://www.sick-boy.com
Never before have the great Bard's words sounded more clunky than here in Michael Hoffman's (One Fine Day) screen adaptation of Shakespeare's whimsical romance. What the Puck happened?
You can't blame the story – it's a classic. But why does it take a full 60 minutes for Hoffman's script to really get moving? You can't blame the production crew (featuring Oscar winners for Howards End and The Age of Innocence) – they create a wonderfully lush dream world. But its leafy green paradise is almost obscured by a bigger, brighter, olive-hued disaster.
That's right – I'm talking about Calista Flockhart's teeth, and the way she shrieks each line sort of makes you want to jam your finger down her throat, too. Love may make fools of us all, but Ally McAnnoying sets a whole new standard. (1:55 – PG-13 for adult situations and brief nudity)

The FIST instruction converts the value in the ST(0) register to a signed integer and stores the result in the destination operand. Values can be stored in word or doubleword integer format.
The destination operand specifies the address where the first byte of the destination value is to be stored.
The FISTP instruction performs the same operation as the FIST instruction and then pops the register stack. To pop the register stack, the processor marks the ST(0) register as empty and increments the stack pointer (TOP) by 1. The FISTP instruction also stores values in quadword integer format.
The following table shows the results obtained when storing various classes of numbers in integer format.
FIST/FISTP Results
| ST(0) | Destination |
| -inf or Value Too Large for Destination Format | * |
| F = -1 | -I |
| -1 < F < -0 | ** |
| -0 | 0 |
| +0 | 0 |
| +0 < F < +1 | ** |
| F = +1 | +I |
| +inf or Value Too Large for Destination Format | * |
| NaN | * |
| F Means finite floating-point value. |
| I Means integer. |
| * Indicates floating-point invalid-operation (#IA) exception. |
| ** 0 or +-1, depending on the rounding mode. |
If the source value is a non-integral value, it is rounded to an integer value, according to the rounding mode specified by the RC field of the FPU control word.
If the converted value is too large for the destination format, or if the source operand is an infinite, SNaN, QNAN, or is in an unsupported format, an invalid-arithmetic-operand condition is signaled. If the invalid-operation exception is not masked, an invalid-arithmetic-operand exception (#IA) is generated and no value is stored in the destination operand. If the invalid-operation exception is masked, the integer indefinite value is stored in memory.

Changing
the namespace
The default configuration attaches the public
API for Blackbird to the global variable log. It is possible to have conflicts with
existing variable declarations, and it is possible to redefine the global
variable log in
other blocks of JavaScript. If you want to define a different variable for
Blackbird, such as blackbird, replace the assignment for NAMESPACE with any other string.
var NAMESPACE = 'log';
can be replaced with:
var NAMESPACE = 'blackbird';
or:
var NAMESPACE = 'myCustomLog';
The global API will be affected by this
change. If you choose to replace log with myCustomLog, then log.debug will become myCustomLog.debug.
Capture
& cancel logging statements
If you're shipping code with logging
statements, you might want to capture and cancel commands intended for
Blackbird. The following code will do this:
var log = {
toggle: function()
{},
move: function()
{},
resize: function()
{},
clear: function()
{},
debug: function()
{},
info: function()
{},
warn: function()
{},
error: function()
{},
profile: function() {}
};
Credits
The code (blackbird.js, blackbird.css) and
image assets (blackbird_panel.png, blackbird_icons.png) were created by G.
Scott Olson.
The concept for Blackbird was sparked by JavaScript Logging, an
article by David F. Miller. The first iteration of this project, named jsLogger, was developed for internal use at Orbitz. In the fall of 2007, jsLogger was rewritten from the ground up, given a
facelift, and named project Blackbird.

Abstract: Broadband antennas are highly attractive for load-bearing applications, such as airborne and wearables. However, antenna design for such applications is very challenging due to requirements for 1) conformality, 2) lightweight, 3) robustness, and 4) tolerance to extreme weather conditions.
With this in mind, we present a novel 10:1 bandwidth conformal antenna based on a new class of conductive textiles (see Fig. 1). The antenna is a cavity-backed Archimedean spiral, 160 mm in diameter. It was ‘printed’ via automated embroidery of metal-coated polymer threads (E-threads), down to 0.12mm in diameter (A. Kiourti, C. Lee and J.L. Volakis, IEEE Antennas Wireless Propag. Lett., 2015). Doing so, the embroidery geometrical precision is as high as 0.1mm, viz. similar to typical Printed Circuit Board (PCB) designs. To enhance robustness, high-strength Kevlar fabric (εr = 2.6, tanδ = 0.006) was employed as the antenna’s substrate. Kevlar is a lightweight, low-loss, abrasion- and heatresistant material, making it suitable for extreme and flexible applications. The textile ground plane was placed at a distance of λlow / 40 from the spiral’s surface, where λlow refers to the wavelength at the lowest operational frequency (in this case, 0.3 GHz). Two 180 Ω resistors were soldered at the spiral ends to suppress wave reflections.
As per design, the textile antenna exhibits a 10:1 bandwidth (VSWR < 2), operating from 0.3 to 3 GHz. It also delivers a consistent circularly polarized realized gain of 8 dBi. This gain hold for most of the 10:1 band except near 300 MHz. Specifically, at low frequencies, the resistive termination decreases the antenna efficiency.
At the conference we will present spiral performance measurements, and several other antenna examples using the aforementioned embroidery process.

satellite had a mass of 1474 grams at launch. The satellite became the second American spacecraft in space.
 It is still in orbit, 60 years after
launch. This satellite, due to its relatively large mass, is a great threat in space. It is the oldest
man-made object in near-earth space.


I am a 24 year old aspiring web developer. I have an interest in coding because I sincerely did not understand how it worked at all, although that is changing now. I'm particularly interested in web development because I've grown up in the age where the internet really took off, and with no signs of slowing down, I'm sure web developers are in pretty high demand, which helps because I'm looking to change careers.
Other than being interested in learning how to code, I'm in to alot of other things. I love to be active, so I spend most of my free time either at the YMCA or my local yoga studio. I've been playing the guitar for roughly half my life now, so when I get the chance I love to play, either alone or with friends. Other than that I'm pretty typical... I like beer and I like to hang out with my friends.

July 11,2016 marked the first death anniversary of Satoru Iwata. He was a video game programmer, a businessman and, perhaps best known as ,the fourth president of Nintendo (the first unrelated to Yamauchi family). He was tremendously successful in all of his positions.
In his early days Iwata joined HAL laboratory, then a team of 5, as the only programmer. At HAL laboratory he worked on a device that allowed old computers to display video game graphics. He went on to assist in development of games that won HAL a license to develop for Namco.
Within three years he was promoted as the coordinator of software production.In his new role he successfully established a partnership between Nintendo and HAL which lead to the production of smash hit video games like Kirby, Earthbound, Balloon Fight and Open tournament golf. Games like Kirby and Earthbound would go on to become all time fan favorites.
Even though he had no experience in management Iwata saved HAL laboratory from bankruptcy by paying off ¥1.5 billion debt in a period of six years bringing the company back to stability. During this time he spent a lot of effort in learning the essentials of management through books and taking advice from people in similar positions.
As the president of HAL Iwata’s love for programming remained strong . He personally reviewed the code for pokemon Red/Green and developed plans for it’s localization. His efforts were instrumental in popularizing pokemon in the west. His influence was also felt in development of games like Super Smash Bros. and Pokemon Stadium.
His crowning achievement however came as the president of Nintendo. In 2002 when Yamauchi retired from his position Iwata inherited a company which though still profitable was under pressure from it’s competitors. Gamecube was performing poorly as compared to PS2 and XBOX. Nintendos’s dominance in the handheld market was about to be challenged by the Sony’s PSP
Soon after taking his position Iwata conducted an analysis of the company and the market which formed the basis of his strategy in the coming years.
He recognized the importance of third party developers. The loss of final fantasy franchise to Sony had hurt Nintendo in the past. Learning from their mistake he focused on building good relations with third party developers. Many developers pledged their support towards Gamecube. Capcom announced a Capcom 5 program a series of 5 video game titles to be published by them on Gamecube in order to boost it’s hardware sales.
As a result Gamecube became host to many exclusive non Nintendo hits like SoulCalibur, Resident Evil 4,Beyond good and evil,Tales of Symphonia,Killer 7 and Viewtiful joe.
This lead to an increase in Gamecube’s sale though it didn’t do much to make it popular. When all was said and done Gamecube was crushed by the PS2.
At this point the video games publishers insisted on making games more graphically appealing. This called for very powerful hardware support,development budgets that spanned millions of dollars and games that took years to build.
Iwata took a drastically different approach. Instead of focusing on making games that were graphically intensive and appealed only to a specific set of gamers he decided to put his effort into making games more fun and accessible to a wider audience. This allowed Nintendo to make cheaper hardware and cheaper games with quicker release cycles.
Blue Oceans
Iwata explored uncharted territories that made the existing competition irrelevant
Rather than taking their competitors head on Nintendo played it smart. Through value innovation both in hardware and software Nintendo unlocked new markets and managed to sell games to people who were not “gamers”.
DS a handled console that supported dual touchscreen lead Nintendo’s resurrection. With games like Nintendogs , Brainage and Pokemon, DS became an instant hit selling in excess of 150 million units. It had a record 140 titles selling more than a million units with total software sales amounting to a staggering 943M.
On the other hand Wii, Nintendo’s home console and answer to PS3, exceeded 100 million in sales. Once more with Wii nintendo relied on innovation rather than raw hardware power. It came with a revolutionary motion sensing controller called the wiimote that allowed players to play a game with the movement of their hands rather than the press of a button.
“In our business, too often people with a fresh idea don’t have a chance. I believe if Tetris were presented today, here is what the producer would be told: Go back give me more levels give me better graphics give me cinematics and you’re probably going to need a movie license to sell that idea to the public”
Games like Brainage and Wii Fit were built to appeal to a very different set of people. Many of these people would have been completely clueless about pokemon,mega man or castlevania. But they loved playing sudoku and they loved doing yoga. And they bought Nintendo’s consoles to be able to do just that.
Iwata’s strategy did not go unnoticed by his competitors. It became clear that to make games more fun you don’t necessarily need to have a powerful hardware or a million dollar budget.
Sony conducted their own experiments on the PSP and released titles like loco rocco a game which controlled rolling ball like characters with just two buttons. Pressing either button would make the loco rocos roll around singing against colorful backgrounds and have the time of their life.
Or take patapon, a strategy game in which the player had to control an army of ferocious tribal warriors by making musical drum beats.
 These games did not achive a blockbuster success, like the Nintendo games, but they nevertheless enjoyed a devoted fan following and became some of the most endearing games on the PSP.
While both DS and Wii had plenty of innovative titles the traditional gamers were not forgotten. Nintendo kept their fans happy by consistently releasing games like Mario,Zelda and Pokemon year after year.
DS became the first handheld console to get an exclusive numbered Dragon Quest game. Dragon quest IX published by Level 5 went on to sell millions in Japan alone.
Iwata promoted re release of consoles with different colors and hardware changes that would immediately breathe new life into the sales. Nintendo DS was re released in three different models viz DS lite, DSi and DSi XL and in every possible color. There was ,a red DS, a blue DS, a purple DS and people just kept on buying it.
On one hand Nintendo conquered new territories unlocking a marketing potential where there was none. And on the other it strengthened it’s base by giving it’s most ardent fans what they desired. Between the years 2005–2012 Nintendo could do no wrong.
Gamer at heart
"I've never once been embarrassed that children have supported Nintendo. I’m proud of it. That’s because children judge products based on instinct. Everyone wants to appeal to people’s instincts, but it’s not easy.”
As a programmer who headed one of the most respected brands in entertainment industry Satoru Iwata is a rarity. Not only was he directly responsible for coding some of the most beloved video games in history, he was also a visionary who popularized video games in markets that were previously out of reach.
As a businessman Iwata was a genius. His focus on value innovation lowered the costs increased the sales and made the competition entirely irrelevant.
Throughout his presidency Iwata enjoyed the total support of his fans. He frequently posted on social media, personally interacted with fans and started an interview series called Iwata asks where he shared insider information on games and the inner workings of the company. Eventually Iwata became the face of Nintendo and the inspiration behind popular internet memes like “Please understand” a phrase which was often used by him as a precursor to some bad information like the announcement of a delay .
But perhaps the most remarkable thing about Iwata was the self control he displayed in the presence of bananas. The temptation must have been too strong. I can tell you from experience that the effect of a ripe, curvy banana on a man is mesmerizing to the extent that it becomes positively spell binding. Lesser men have lasted all but 4 seconds. My personal record is 3. But it seems that Iwata could just gaze at bananas all day long without ever feeling the compulsion to peel one off and take bite out of it. Men like him are one of a kind. May he rest in peace.

Applications can use PrinterJob to print 2D graphics to a printer or to an output stream. The lookupPrintServices method returns an array of PrintService objects, each of which represents a printer that can print 2D graphics. The lookupStreamPrintServices method returns an array of StreamPrintServiceFactory objects, each of which can return a StreamPrintService. An application uses the StreamPrintService to send print data to an output stream. As with printing documents, applications can use a StreamPrintService to transcode 2D graphics to other formats. This section discusses using PrinterJob to submit 2D graphics to a printer and to an output stream.
// Step 1: Set up initial print settings. PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet(); // Step 2: Obtain a print job. PrinterJob pj = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob(); // Step 3: Find print services. PrintService []services = PrinterJob.lookupPrintServices(); if (services.length > 0) { System.out.println("selected printer: " + services[0]); try { pj.setPrintService(service[0]); // Step 2: Pass the settings to a page dialog and print dialog. pj.pageDialog(aset); if (pj.printDialog(aset)) { // Step 4: Update the settings made by the user in the dialogs. // Step 5: Pass the final settings into the print request. pj.print(aset); } } catch (PrinterException(pe)) { System.err.println(pe): } }See Example: Print2DPrinterJob.java for the complete application.
Note that Step 4 in this code sample does not seem to correspond to any particular line of code. In fact, the user updates the print settings in the dialogs, and the updated settings are saved in the PrintRequestAttributeSet, aset.
One problem with using Java 2D and the Java Print Service together is that some attributes, such as number of copies, are defined in both APIs. If such an attribute is specified in a PrintRequestAttributeSet, it takes precedence over the same attribute specified in the PrinterJob. Note that if a user updates the number of copies in a print dialog, the PrinterJob is automatically updated to reflect that, which reconfirms the existing behavior.
The PageFormat specification also overlaps with the Java Print Service Media, MediaPrintableArea, and OrientationRequested attributes. If an application uses the Printable interface and the print(PrintRequestAttributeSet) method, the media, orientation, and imageable area attributes contained in the attribute set are added to a new PageFormat, which is passed to the print method of the Printable object. If an application uses the Pageable interface, the PageFormat does not change.
PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob(); String psMimeType = "application/postscript"; FileOutputStream outstream; StreamPrintService psPrinter; StreamPrintServiceFactory []spsFactories = PrinterJob.lookupStreamPrintServices(psMimeType); if (factories.length > 0) { try { outstream = new File("out.ps"); psPrinter = factories[0].getPrintService(fos); // psPrinter can now be set as the service on a PrinterJob } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { } } job.setPrintService(service[0]); // if app wants to specify this printer. PrintRequestAttributeSet aset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet(); aset.add(new Copies(2)); job.print(aset); }

Ballerina 1.0.0 is here! We would like you to try it out and give us feedback via our Slack channel, Twitter, or Github. Ballerina 1.0.0 consists of improvements to the language syntax and semantics based on the stable language specification version 2019R3 and new features and enhancements to the standard library modules and developer tooling.
A set of modules, which contain functions associated with the basic types have been introduced.
Collectively, these modules are referred to as the lang library. Each basic type has a corresponding lang
library module. Additionally, there is also the lang.value
module, which holds functions common
for all the types. The following is the list of lang library modules.
ballerina/lang.value
ballerina/lang.array
for list typesballerina/lang.decimal
for basic type decimal
ballerina/lang.error
for basic type error
ballerina/lang.float
for basic type float
ballerina/lang.future
for basic type future
ballerina/lang.int
for basic type int
ballerina/lang.map
for mapping typesballerina/lang.object
for basic type object
ballerina/lang.stream
for basic type stream
ballerina/lang.string
for basic type string
ballerina/lang.table
for basic type table
ballerina/lang.typedesc
for basic type typedesc
ballerina/lang.xml
for basic type xml
The basic type handle
has been added. A handle
value is a reference to storage
area of a Ballerina program that is managed externally. Handle
values are useful only in
conjunction with functions that have external function bodies; in particular, a new handle value can be
created only by a function with an external function body.
The error reason is now optional if the reason can be inferred based on the contextually-expected type.
type Detail record {
int code;
};
const FOO = "foo";
type FooError error<FOO, Detail>;
FooError e1 = error(FOO, code = 3456);
FooError e2 = error(code = 3456); // Also valid now, reason is set as "foo"
typeof
has been introduced to retrieve a typedesc value for the runtime type of
a value.typedesc t = typeof valueExpr;
.@
has been introduced to access annotation values at runtime.ballerina
annotation Foo annot on service;
typedesc t = typeof serviceValue;
Foo? fooAnnot = t.@annot;
Expressions are now allowed as default values for function parameters.
The concept of lax typing has been introduced allowing less stricter static typing for types identified as
lax. With lax typing, some of the static typing checks are moved to the runtime returning errors at runtime
instead. With this release, json
and map<T>
where T
is lax are
considered as lax.
?.
has been introduced to access possibly-undefined mapping
members. Optional field access on lax types may return error
if applied to a non-mapping value.
This release introduces a brand new implementation (jBallerina) of the Ballerina language spec, which targets the JVM. The jBallerina compiler produces an executable JAR file for a Ballerina program by directly transforming Ballerina sources to Java bytecode. With jBallerina, the previous Ballerina runtime implementation (BVM) will be deprecated and removed. jBallerina comes with significant performance improvements over the BVM.
Java interoperability is a key feature in jBallerina that allows you to call Java code from Ballerina. It also enables you to embrace the capabilities of Ballerina for new projects while utilizing existing Java libraries that you or your organization invested in for years.

e.g., Ballerina HTTP Error types include http:ClientError
, http:ListenerError
,
http:ClientAuthError
etc.ballerina/h2

database client modules and the
ballerina/sql
module have been discontinued. The ballerinax/java.jdbc
client module
can be used to interact with relational databases.byte[]|io:Error
.ballerina/file
module.ballerina/encoding
module were removed since they are now supported via
the lang library.string
, json
and
xml
types.The ballerina/builtin
module has been removed. Some of the functionalities provided by the
ballerina/builtin
library is now provided by the newly-added lang library.
freeze()
builtin method has been replaced with the cloneReadOnly()
lang library
function. cloneReadOnly()
can be called only on variables of the type anydata
. It
creates and returns a clone of the value that has been made immutable (for non-simple basic types).Previous Syntax
ballerina
map<string> m2 = m.freeze();
New Syntax
ballerina
map<string> m2 = m.cloneReadOnly();
convert()
builtin method has been replaced with the constructFrom()
lang library
function. constructFrom()
can only be called on a type descriptor T
where the
T
is a subtype of anydata
. It accepts an anydata
value as an argument
and returns a value of the type T
constructed using a deep copy of the provided argument. If the
construction fails, it returns an error.Previous Syntax
ballerina
json j = {name:"tom", age:2};
Person|error p = Person.convert(j);
New Syntax
ballerina
json j = {name:"tom", age:2};
Person|error p = Person.constructFrom(j);
convert()
method is now
provided by the lang library functions of the relevant types.Previously, convert()
was used to parse string literals. Now, the lang.int
,
lang.float
, and lang.decimal
modules have a fromString()
function,
which accepts a string literal and parses it.
Previous Syntax
int|error x = int.convert("100");
New Syntax
import ballerina/lang.'int; // Need to import `lang.int`
int x = 'int:fromString("100");
Previously, when invoked on the string
type descriptor, convert()
returned a
string representation of the value. Now, the lang.value
module provides a
toString()
function, which returns a human-readable string representation of a value.
Previous Syntax
json person = {"name":"John", "age":25};
string|error str = string.convert(person);
New Syntax
json person = {"name":"John", "age":25};
string str = person.toString();
stamp()
method has been removed.{
, }
and {|
, |}
delimiters have
changed. A record type descriptor written using the {|
and |}
delimiters defines a
closed record type, which only accepts mapping values with the same fields as the ones described. A record type
descriptor written using the {
and }
delimiters define a record type, which
additionally allows pure type fields apart from the described fields, i.e., record {}
is
equivalent to record {| anydata…; |}
. Previous Syntax
// Open record with a field `a`. It additionally allows
// `anydata|error` fields.
type Foo record {
string a;
};
// Open record with a field `a`. It additionally allows
// `int` fields.
type Bar record {
string a;
int...;
};
// Closed record, which only allows a `string` field named `a`.
type Baz record {|
string a;
|};
New Syntax
// Open record with a field `a`. It additionally allows
// `anydata` fields.
type Foo record {
string a;
};
// Open record with a field `a`. It additionally allows
// only `int` fields.
type Bar record {|
string a;
int...;
|};
// Closed record, which only allows a `string` field named `a`.
type Baz record {|
string a;
|};
anydata
from anydata|error
.
[]
(e.g., [expr]
).Previous Syntax
map<string> m = { getString(): "value" };
New Syntax
map<string> m = { [getString()]: "value" };
rest
field should either be a string literal or an expression in the mapping constructor (i.e.,
cannot be an identifier). Previous Syntax
type Foo record {
string bar;
int...;
};
Foo f = { bar: "test string", qux: 1 }; // `qux` is a rest field
New Syntax
<type Foo record {|
string bar;
int...;
|};
Foo f = { bar: "test string", "qux": 1 }; // `qux` is a rest field
entries()
is available to retrieve an array of key-value pairs
for a mapping value.Previous Syntax
foreach (string, int) (k, v) in m {
io:println("Key: ", k);
io:println("Value: ", v);
}
New Syntax
// Iterating values.
foreach int v in m {
io:println("Value: ", v);
}
// Iterating entries.
foreach [string, int] [k, v] in m.entries() {
io:println("Key: ", k);
io:println("Value: ", v);
}
Previous Syntax
(int|string)[] arr = []; // Fails at compile time.
arr[1] = 1;
New Syntax
(int|string)[] arr = [];
arr[1] = 1; // Fails at runtime.
Previous Syntax
(int, string) t = (1, "hello world");
New Syntax
[int, string] t = [1, "hello world"];
[int, string, boolean...] t = [1, "hello world", true, true];
[int...] t3 = [1, 2];
type Foo object {
int code = 0;
function printCode();
};
function Foo.printCode() {
// print code
}
public
and only arguments can be passed by the name
to such parameters when invoking a function from an imported module. These arguments can still be passed as
positional arguments.detail
type defined in the error lang library.
public type Detail record {|
string message?;
error cause?;
(anydata|error)...;
|};
detail
fields as individual named arguments as opposed to
accepting a single mapping as the detail
argument. Previous Syntax
Detail detail = { message: "error message", code: 1100 };
error e = error("error reason", detail);

The Athena provides access to the most recent art-house and international films. The theater is the best place to view some of the most recent features from large studios like A24 and Searchlight Pictures and smaller features from around the world. The Athena provides a rare opportunity to discover the latest films that large cinema chains don’t provide.
Films like The Grand Budapest Hotel, CODA and Everything Everywhere all at Once have appeared in the Athena. While in recent years, more blockbusters have appeared like Logan and The Batman. The theater provides a wide range of films throughout the year and provides an opportunity to see blockbusters and award-winning features.
The theater hosts special events based around themes, anniversaries of films and live improvised music. The Athena gives audiences the rare opportunity of seeing classic films on the big screen, with the occasional guest speaker.
There are also special weekend events where the Athena puts on films for moms, sibs and fathers weekends. The films on display are from all genres, with Princess Bride being a favorite. Around the holidays, the theater hosts a charity holiday series. The charm of the small college cinema is being part of this close-knit community.
There are several accessibility options and weekly events that provide incentives to attend, like discounts and free popcorn. The interstitials between films show off photos from the Athena’s history and ads from the 1910s. Occasionally, the screen flashes up photos of people’s experiences with the theater, Cards proclaiming repeat visits to see Grand Budapest Hotel andBlue Velvet, the history adding a rather unique element to theater.
These elements create the atmosphere of the Athena. Crossing under the marquee and entering the lobby pulls one back in time. For students attending Ohio University, going to the theater is a necessary experience. It stands as a time capsule for an era of cinemas across America that once existed, that have now faded away with larger movie chains.
The cinema is never without a new film, and this summer is no exception. David Cronenberg’s new film Crimes of the Future proves to be a must-watch while additional films will come and go with the season.
The Athena is not the only option for a theater in Athens, but it stands out as one of the best. Having unique films and a rich history, going to the Athena provides a rare experience to enjoy a piece of Athens history and indulge in the current cinema.

FROM:Mr.D Dumas. #24 garden Avenue, Sungu Johannesburg Rep Of South Africa. Dear Sir/Madam, I am Mr.D Dumas. a consulting auditor of prime banks here in South Africa. I have the courage to Crave indulgence for this important business believing that you will never let me down either now or in the future. Some year ago, an American Mining consultant/ contractor with the South African Mining corporation, made a numbered time (fixed)deposit for twelve calendar months, valued $142M.USD (ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY TWO MILLION US DOLLARS) in an account. On maturity, The bank sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, The bank sent another reminder and finally his contract employers, the South African Mining corporation wrote to inform the bank that he died without MAKING A WILL, and all attempts by the American Embassy to trace his next of kin was fruitless.I therefore, made further investigation and discovered that the beneficiary was an immigrant from Jamaica and only recently obtained American citizenship. He did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank deposit paper work. This money total amount$142M.USD (ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY TWO MILLION US DOLLARS)is still sitting in my bank as dormant Account.No one will ever come forward to claim it, and according to South African banking policy, after some years, the money will revert to the ownership of the South African Government if the account owner is certified dead. This is the situation, and my proposal is that I am looking for a foreigner who will stand in as the next of kin to beneficiary, and OPEN a Bank Account abroad to facilitate the transfer of this money.This is simple, all you have to do is to OPEN an account anywhere in the world and send me its detail for me to arrange the proper money transfer paperwork, and facilitate the transfer.The money will then be paid into this Account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me, 30 % for you and 10% for expenses that might come up during transfer process. There is no risk at all, and all the paper work for this transaction will be done by me using my position and connections in the banks in South Africa. This business transaction is guaranteed.And the first phase of the transfer will be ($42M.USD) FORTY TWO MILLION DOLLARS as advised by our insider in the bank.If you are interested, please reply immediately through my personal email sending the following details: (1) Your Full Name/Address (2) Your Private Telephone/fax Number. (3)Your Full Account Details.  Please observe the utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest some of my share in your country.I will give to you,My Private:Tele & Fax Number which I bought for this business upon your positive response for heart to heart discussion and once I am convinced that you are capable and will meet up with the instructions of a key bank official who is deeply involved with me in this business.I need your strong assurance that you will never let me down now or in future. I look forward to your earliest reply through my private email address.Pls you can reach me throught my private email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Best Regards, Mr.D Dumas. PLEASE CALL ME IF YOU NEED TO CAL,BUT YOU HAVE TO CALL DIRECT,DUE TO IT IS STATELITE PHONE I JUST BOUGHT IT FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE TRANSACTION ONLY Phone No:874-763-427980. Fax No:874-763-427981.


Original Song by Taylor Swift and Andrew Lloyd Webber 'Beautiful Ghosts' for Feature Film Adaptation of CATS
by Jessica FisherWe have a new song for you to check out from the upcoming film adaptation of the famed Broadway musical, Cats. The musical was written by Andrew Lloyd Webber, and he has contributed the music for a new song – with lyrics by cast member Taylor Swift – for the film as well. This will be the only brand new song included in the film, with the other music from the original returning.
The song seems to fit in with the other songs in the musical, and Swift performs it beautifully. I have always liked the songs from Cats, but I don’t know how well it’s all going to translate on film. But for now, listen to the new song, and let us know what you think.

Military Dog in Anti-Baghdadi Operation to Visit Trump in White House ‘Very Soon’
Conan is the nickname of a military dog which took part in and was injured during the US military operation in north Syria against the leader and founder of Daesh* Abu al-Baghdadi that resulted in his death on 26 October.
US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday in a political campaign rally in Monroe, Louisiana, that Conan would attend the White House ‘very soon’.
"He's coming to the White House very soon… I said, 'bring him now,' they said, 'He's on a mission.' I said, 'You gotta be kidding. Come on, give him couple of days rest, please,” said Trump.
Trump called the dog, which he claims got injured while taking down Daesh’s leader al-Baghdadi, a great hero.
"You know who the real hero is, forget about Trump, the dog was the great hero, Conan," Trump remarked.
While celebrating the dog’s heroism, Trump sent a message to the fighters of the terrorist group, whom he referred to as ‘bloodthirsty savages’, that they “don't stand a chance against the might of the United States military”
On 27 October, Trump announced that Daesh* leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had been killed in a raid executed by US Special Operations Forces in Syria’s Idlib province.
*Daesh (ISIS, ISIL, IS, Islamic State) is a terrorist group banned in Russia and many other countries.

Originally the term stationery referred to all products sold by a stationer, whose name indicated that his book shop was on a fixed spot, usually near a university, and permanent, while medieval trading was mainly carried on by itinerant peddlers (including chapmen, who sold books) and others (such as farmers and craftsmen) at markets and fairs. It was a special term used between the 13th and 15th centuries in the manuscript culture. The Stationers' Company formerly held a monopoly over the publishing industry in England and was responsible for copyright regulations.
In its modern sense including personal writing materials, stationery has been an important part of good social etiquette, particularly since the Victorian era. Some uses of stationery, such as sending a manufactured reply card to a wedding invitation, have changed from offensive[clarification needed] to appropriate.
The use and marketing of stationery is being partly superseded by electronic media. Stationery is intrinsically linked to paper and the process of written, personalized communication, and many techniques of stationery manufacture are employed, of varying desirability and expense. The most familiar of these techniques are letterpress printing, embossing, engraving and thermographic printing (often confused with thermography). Flat printing and offset printing are regularly used, particularly for low-cost or informal needs.

There are two ways a PRU program can read or write to the pins on the Beaglebone Black's P8 and P9 header. The first method is to enable the OCP master port and then manipulate the pins via the GPIO subsystem. In other words, the PRU accesses addresses in the main Beaglebone Blacks memory and can read or write the bits which are related to the GPIO OCP device. This is exactly the way the Linux GPIO device driver operates and also the method used in other examples in this series such as the PRU Blink USR3 LED Example.
The second method of reading or writing to the pins on the Beaglebone Black's P8 and P9 header is to use the PRUs own internal registers (rather than the Beaglebone Blacks main memory space) for the purpose of reading or writing to the inputs or outputs. This is considerably faster (by about a factor of 10 or 20). However there is a drawback in that the pins involved are split among, and dedicated to, a specific PRU. In other words, if you write some PRU code to directly read or write to its I/O pins then that code must necessarily be specific to either PRU0 or PRU1. Fortunately there are quite a number of input pins and output pins per PRU. Also note that the some of the pins cannot be configured both an input and an output like the GPIO's can. The pins the PRU accesses are hard coded to the PRU and are also often restricted to being either an input or and output.
The upshot is that the PRU direct input and outputs are much faster but are somewhat restricted in number, are specific to the PRU and are often not bi-directional. The GPIO I/O method is more versatile, slower, but is able to reference pins that cannot be accessed from either PRU. A discussion of the PinMux and how it controls access to the I/O lines on the P8 and P9 Header can be found on this page and a discussion on how to configure the PRU I/O pins can be found here.
This sample code will illustrate how to use the R31 and R30 registers of PRU0 to read the high/low state of an input and to set the state of an output to match that input. For the purposes of demonstration, the off/on state of the USR3 LED will also be set to follow the state of the input. The setting of the USR3 LED state is via the slower GPIO mechanism. There is no direct PRU output (on either PRU) which can adjust the state of the USR3 LED. As mentioned previously, not all I/O is available via direct PRU access.
The example below shows how to use the PRU_Driver class of the BBBCSIO library to load the PRU binary (compiled PASM Assembler). For the purposes of illustration, the example binary being loaded and run is hard coded in the sample source and you will need to modify the path prior to executing it yourself.
NOTE: The PRU code the example below will run is called PRUPinInOut.bin
and the PASM Assembly Language source for this code can be found in the file
BBBCSIOHelp_PRUPinInOutExamplePASMCode.html. You should probably read the comments in the PRUPinInOut.p
source file in order to understand the operation of this program.
The code below illustrates how to use the launch, and interact with, a compiled PRU binary using the PRU_Driver class of the BBBCSIO library.
/// +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+= /// <summary> /// A sample to launch the PRU code which demonstrates the use of /// the P8 Header Pins the PRU can access natively via its R30 and R31 /// registers. /// /// In this example, the ASM binary to load is hard coded.

Press any key to quit"); Console.ReadKey().ToString(); // we can leave here and even close and dispose of the driver // and the PRU code will remain running unless we explicitly // stop it pruDriver.PRUStop(); // close the driver pruDriver.Dispose(); }
The PRUPinInOut
call would be made via a line which looks like:
PRUPinInOut(PRUEnum.PRU_0);

--- title: Query Stack Overflow for Top 5 Tags and Children Posts summary: > I want to find the top 5 tags (by post count) on Stack Overflow and include the top 5 posts per tag by score. For this, I will use the Stack Exchange Data Explorer. author: Tim Trice date: '2018-02-26' slug: query-stack-overflow-top-five-tags-top-five-posts-within-each-tag categories: - SQL tags: - SELECT - ROW_NUMBER - PARTITION - LEFT JOIN - ORDER BY output: blogdown::html_page: toc: true toc_depth: 6 ---
For this you can use the Stack Exchange Data Explorer online at no charge. Click the ‘Compose Query’ button in the top-right. You should see the stackoverflow image in the top right corner:
You should give your query a title but it is not necessary. It does help keep track of your edits as you move along.
I want to find the top five tags on Stack Overflow along with the top five posts per tag. The Stack Exchange Data Explorer gives us free access to this data. The data itself is slightly out-of-date, but this is fine.
I will use three subqueries:
Find the top 5 tags
LEFT JOIN
those tags to the posts table
Filter the results per tag.
The tables I need to focus on are:
Tags
PostTags
Posts
The dataset is denormalized so some of the calculations we need to make have already been done. For example, in Tags
there is a Count
column that already tells us how many posts exist for each tag. In Posts
, the Tags
column contains a list of tags. Without this, I would need to write a more complicated query to split every tag for every row then run a tally. A challenge, for sure.
PostTags
is the bridge between Tags
and Posts
. Once I know what Tags
I am searching, I use PostTags
to find all relevant posts per tag, joining Posts
to also get all of the tags per post and the score of the post.
Finally, I will close off the query with a simple filter statement using WHERE
.
The overall query is very simple to build and keeps the result set small. Additionally, it is very easy to edit. So, if we want the top 10 tags and 10 posts per tag, we just make two small edits. Or, even better, use variables.
Earlier when I numbered the posts within each tag, I took what may have seemed unnecessary steps. In other words, why did I need create a new variable, n
, to begin with? Why not just LEFT JOIN Posts
, GROUP BY PostTags.TagId
, and ORDER BY Posts.Score DESC
?
DECLARE @n_tags int;
SET @n_tags = 5;
SELECT
TOP 5 PostTags.PostId,
PostTags.TagId,
Posts.Score
FROM
PostTags
LEFT JOIN
Posts
ON
PostTags.PostId = Posts.Id
WHERE
PostTags.TagId IN (
SELECT
TOP (@n_tags) Tags.Id
FROM
Tags
ORDER BY
Tags.Count DESC)
GROUP BY
PostTags.TagId
ORDER BY
Posts.Score DESC;
Surely, the query above would have accomplished the same results, right?
The problem is that when running this type of query the server does not like it. Particularly, Data Exchange will halt execution with the following error:
Column 'PostTags.PostId' is invalid in the select list because it is not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BY clause.
I have asked the server to return the top five post id’s per tag id. The server, however, recognizes I’m also asking for tag id and score. The server doesn’t know which values of tag id and score to return and, therefore, throws an error.
Many database servers prior would have allowed this query to run without throwing an error. Now, most will halt execution though you can modify a setting to allow it to continue with a warning.
The better alternative is to simply group the result set by the tag id then create a new variable that effectively ranks the posts within each tag based on the posts score. This is the purpose of n
.
Then we can filter our result set on the top five (or any n
) without issue.
You now have a query that you can easily edit to expand tag groups or include more posts per group. Data Exchange returns 50,000 rows in the result pane so you have plenty of room to work with.
Some things you may want to try:
Instead of sorting by Posts.Score
, can you edit the code to sort by Posts.CreationDate
?
Examine the execution plan of my query? With that information, modify the code to include Posts.Title
and Posts.Tags
on the second subquery (starting at line #19). This removes the need for the outer LEFT JOIN
statement (line #44) but how does this impact the execution time of the query?
If you are feeling really brave, instead of relying on PostTags.Count
, can you split Posts.Tags
and aggregate posts based on each tag? How does this query compare to the simpler SELECT
query used originally?
The raw query and dataset can be found in my Datasets repo. If you have noticed any errors or simply want to fork the code, please feel free.
Lastly, please feel free to reach out to me on twitter for any questions or comments.
Thank you for reading!


Project 2: What's the Password?
Due: Sunday, March 4, 2018, at 11:59pm
Throughout most of your CS or CoE studies, you work creating or modifying programs or computers – in a word: building. However, sometimes the best way to learn about something is to break it. In this project you will be deconstructing existing programs that each have a secret password or passphrase that needs to be input in order to unlock the program.
I am providing you with 3 compiled executables. Each one requires you to enter a sequence of ASCII characters to "unlock." Unlocking the programs will draw upon the things we are studying this term.
You will also write a tool to help you with solving the first program. In UNIX/Linux, there is a program called strings that dumps out the sequences of ASCII characters that are 4 or more characters long.
The mystrings program should take a filename from the command line and read the bytes of the file, looking for strings of printable characters (ASCII values between 32 and 126 decimal). A string is a run of at least 4 consecutive printable characters and ends whenever a non-printable character is encountered. Whenever you find such a string, print it out, one per line.
You can check the operation of your program via the real strings program, and do a man strings to learn about how it works. You do not need to support all of the features of the real strings program. It has knowledge of executables that makes it print out less strings than your program will. You do should not do anything special based upon the file type for your program.
Make sure your program can handle strings that are arbitrarily long.
For each of the three programs, you will be required to provide two things: the solution passphrase and a written description of your attempts to discover it, stating what you learned to help you along the way. You should relate your experiences back to the course material, using the terms and concepts we've discussed. Write it up in a formal, organized fashion. You do not need to describe every command you have tried or every wrong idea. Describe briefly your failed attempts and motivation, but describe in detail your successful approach.
The most obvious tool you will need is a good debugger like gdb. You may also find a hex viewer like od -x useful. objdump can do a lot of individual tasks that can be helpful. Additionally, you might find the mystrings command you wrote somewhat useful.
For this project we will be working on thoth.cs.pitt.edu
When you login via ssh with your Pitt account, you will find a local directory under /u/SysLab/ named with your username. In this directory, you will find the three executables and space to work on them. If you store any files of your own in this directory, note that it is not part of AFS, and only exists on this machine. We will delete your directory when the term is over. Anything you want to save or backup should be copied into your AFS private directory.
When you’re done, create a gzipped tarball (as we did in the first lab) of your commented source files and compiled executables.
Copy your archive to the directory:
~jrmst106/submit/449/
Make sure you name the file with your username, and that you have your name in the comments of your source file.
Note that this directory is insert-only, you may not delete or modify your submissions once in the directory. If you’ve made a mistake before the deadline, resubmit with a number suffix like abc123-project2_1.tar.gz
The highest numbered file before the deadline will be the one that is graded, however for simplicity, please make sure you’ve done all the work and included all necessary files before you submit


The main weakness of Hector is his emotions. He always gets emotionally invested in his dying patients. It is hard for him to give up hope and he always believes that he can he can save them.  When he knows he can save his patients he will try everthing he can to save their life. When they die under his care it tears him apart and haunts him. He can see death around his patients and he knows there is no way of helping them in the end.


No pain,No gain
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic.
Everything we do will affect it.
Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers.Pray for powers equal to your tasks.Then the doing of work
shall be no miracle,but you shall be the miracle.

Aspect Ratio Maintenance
Usually on any given image we’ll want to ensure a specific aspect ratio – usually the original aspect ratio e.g. 16:9 or 4:3 but not always, for example where we want a square thumbnail. Often images have an HTML height attribute set inline and when this combines with our responsive CSS of img { width: 100%; }
the image will look broken.
At some point in the future this may be handled automatically by the browser – see what-if-we-got-aspect-ratio-sized-images-by-doing-almost-nothing
Developers tend to wrap images in a div to handle maintaining aspect ratio. See https://css-tricks.com/aspect-ratio-boxes/ (todo: try Thierry Koblentz’s idea!)
