Classes vs. Modules
8/16/15
Classes and modules share similarities in Ruby but are utilized in very different ways - let's compare.
Classes
Classes are instantiated and create a new object within Ruby. A class consists of methods, constants, and variables. Think of a class as the blueprints required to create a new object. Let's use an example:
class Car
def initialize(brand, name)
@brand = brand
@name = name
end
def vroom
puts 'Vroooom!'
end
def details
puts "This fine car is a #{@brand} <EMAIL_ADDRESS>end
end
Within the class Car
are 3 methods: initialize
, vroom
, and details
. All three methods create the behaviors of the class Car
. In order to use a class, you must instantiate it with the following:
my_car = Car.new(Ford, Mustang)
This code creates a new instance of the class Car
called my_car
and assigns (Ford, Mustang)
to the instance variables (@brand, @name)
. Since my_car
is an object, methods can be called upon it. For example:
my_car.details
will puts This fine car is a Ford Mustang.
Modules
Unlike classes, modules cannot be instantiated. Think of modules as libraries that hold bundles of methods, constants, and classes. Let's look at the Ruby Math module as an example:
module Math
PI = 3.141592654
end
There are other constants and methods within this module but we will keep it simple for now and only refer to the constant PI. Since we cannot instantiate a module, we must extract its data differently than we would for a class. Here are two simple ways access PI:
puts Math::PI
#=> 3.141592653589793
include Math
puts PI
#=> 3.141592653589793
The first example uses the constant lookup operator (::). This allows you to scope constants and classes within a module. The second example uses include
which allows the mix in of modules into classes.

How Many Trades Do Crypto Exchanges Actually Process?
by Emilio JanusHow many trades are actually processed per month, day, second on crypto exchanges? The answer is anybody’s guess, because no matter how many times CoinMarketCap, or other aggregate platforms, adjusts its figures, we’re always left with serious doubts.
Information Not As Readily Available As Expected
The team at Shrimpy portfolio management set to work finding out the answer to this long-standing question, and has recently published its results in a blog post.
It seems that the information isn’t as easy to come by as one would expect. Apparently, popular crypto exchange, Binance, can process up to 1.4 million trades per second. This is great, but it doesn’t bring us any closer to an answer.
Luckily, Shrimpy has its own API. This can calculate the number of trades actioned on a certain exchange, given the trading pair and start and end time. For example, over the course of October, considering just the BTC/USDT trading pair, there were 13.2 million trades executed on Binance, and almost 77,000 on crypto competitor platform, Bittrex.
So in October, Binance processed almost 172 times as many trades as Bittrex. But what about a total number across all exchanges?
Interesting Crypto Exchange Findings
Collating information across all trading pairs, over a whole year, for 16 of the most popular (and perhaps credible) exchanges, Shrimpy drew some interesting conclusions.
- Huobi Global beats Binance to process the most trades per month. 121 million in October over all trading pairs, against Binance’s 92 million.
- The highest number of trades executed by Binance in a single month was 125 million trades. If it was running at capacity, the entirety of these crypto trades could have been processed in just under a minute and a half.
- The total number of trades across all sixteen exchanges analysed, was 452 million in the month of October 2019. This being a roughly average month considering the entire year.
So there you have it. Around 450 million trades per month (for the exchanges which were analysed). This equates to around 15 million trades per day, or around 175 trades per second.
Whilst some analysts obsess over daily traded bitcoin volume (and how trustworthy reported figures actually are), the number of daily trades can also be used to give an indication of market health. Perhaps it is a statistic which we will hear more of in future.

ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA II A film review by Leong Heng Cheong Copyright 1992 Leong Heng Cheong
ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA II (Chinese Title: WONG FEY-HONG II: MEN SHOULD STRENGTHEN THEMSELVES) is one of the latest martial arts movies from Hong Kong: the Hollywood of the East.
Directed by Tsui Hark, who also co-wrote the screenplay, this film stars Jet Li, from ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA and THE SWORDSMEN II. This film is in Cantonese, with Mandarin dubbed versions available. Film length is about 110 minutes.
All the elements of Tsui Hark's martial arts movies are again featured in this film: the "wooden" hero, the side-kick cum comic relief, the women that needs to be rescued by the hero....
However, unlike many movies, there isn't a good-vs-evil one-force-againist- another plot. We have the hero: Wong Fey-Hong, who knows justice, but doesn't approve of revolution. There is Sun Yat-sen and his follower, who wanted to save China. There is a Qing minister, who just wanted to do the job he is paid for. And there is the White Lotus sect, who made used to the chaos condition in Canton to cheat others -- and in the end, cheated themselves.
These recent installments of Wong Fey-Hong's legends are also very different from the past 99 episodes. Here, the foreigners are no longer the only bad guys, and not all Chinese are good. Instead, we see better portrayed characters which are no longer one-dimensional.
But, that doesn't mean they are three-dimensional. :-) Character development is not a strong point of Tsui Hark, and here, he avoided it altogether. The romance was quickly introduced, and quickly disappeared into the background. A scene which Wong taught his aunt (the romantic interest -- the other way round) martial arts looks stiff and out-of-place. The rescue of the children from the Language School looks routine, and fail to evoke any drama.
The story: Wong Fey-Hong is invited to Canton for a medical conference, but got himself involved in the chaos of revolution. Meanwhile, the White Lotus sect, bent on destroying all "evil" stuff from the West, cheats the people by proclaiming they are there to save the people with help from God. There isn't any suspense in the movie -- everything is almost predictable...
Fans of Chinese martial arts movies would not be disappointed. In fact, fans of action movies shouldn't be disappointed. There are fights all the way from the beginning till the end on various different kinds of props ranging from ladders to tables. The movie is rated PG in Singapore -- no nudity, but some violence and blood. Masters of martial arts like to cut vital veins that spurt blood of their opponent.... :-)
A brief knowledge of China's history during the turn of the century can help enhance the enjoyment of this film, but viewers should note the disclaimer displayed at the beginning of the movie after the credits: the story is by no means historically accurate.
Overall, a standard project by Tsui Hark -- but an entertaining movie all the same. Not much depth, but who will expect that in such a fast-paced movie?
The next project by Tsui Hark, already completed, is a remake of DRAGON-GATE INN. Currently, Tsui Hark is in China filming ONCE UPON A TIME IN CHINA III (you are guaranteed a sequel with the box-office success of the second in the series in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Singapore...) and GREEN SNAKE (translated title).

Andy and Corey record this episode in our off-season format, through Skype. This leads to much tomfoolery.
We talk about the fact that the Cubs still don't have a General Manager and our feelings about the Cardinals in the World Series. Corey apologizes to a listener, Michael, for missing his "Welcome Back Kotter" reference. Nick from Virginia asks about which player would make a decent player/manager for the Cubs and that gives Andy the opportunity to speculate on Sean Marshall's television viewing habits.
Again, our off-season episodes will come out on Tuesday evenings and be about 30 minutes in length.

Recent years have seen an increased interest in novel methods for analyzing quantitative data from experimental psychology. Currently, however, they lack an established and accessible software framework. Many existing implementations provide no guidelines, consisting of small code snippets, or sets of packages. In addition, the use of existing packages often requires advanced programming experience. 'PredPsych' is a user-friendly toolbox based on machine learning predictive algorithms. It comprises of multiple functionalities for multivariate analyses of quantitative behavioral data based on machine learning models.

EC boss, deputy are NPP affiliates – NDC General Secretary
The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia, is accusing the chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Ghana (EC), Jean Adukwei Mensa, and one of her deputies, Dr Bossman Eric Asare of being affiliates of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) given their actions and decisions.
In an interview with Winston Amoah on Sunrise on 3FM Tuesday, Mr Asiedu Nketia readily cited the position of Dr Bossman Asare on the referendum as evidence of his assertion.
The Deputy EC Chair was on same programme on Monday and personally canvassed for a ‘Yes’ vote in the December 17 referendum.
Mr Asiedu Nketia said this flies in the face of law as a Deputy Commissioner, who has to serve as a referee, takes a side already.
He continued by citing how the whole country was aware of the tension between the NDC and Jean Mensa before her appointment as the EC chairperson.
She was Executive Director of the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) before her appointment.
“The NGO she ran went to organize a programme that was openly against NDC,” Mr Asiedu Nketia said.
“We complained about it, she came to insult us and because of that we withdrew our participation from the NGO.”
He further linked this to her appointer, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, terming him a “dictator”.

using a unique key, and only one session exists per key at a time.
Once a session has been created it remains active for a fixed time
period, this time period is renewed each time that session is open.
When the session provider is no longer required it can be closed. Closing the session provider will cancel and destroy all active sessions, and release all resources occupied by the provider such as threads and memory.

RHAPSODY IN AUGUST A film review by Frank Maloney Copyright 1992 Frank Maloney
RHAPSODY IN AUGUST is a Japanese-language film by Akira Kurosawa. It stars Sachiko Murase, Hisashi Igawa, Richard Gere. It is written by Kurosawa, based on the novel "Nabe-no-Naka" by Kiyoko Murata. English subtitles. Rated PG for mature themes.
Akira Kurosawa at 81 is establishing his career in a vigorous and creative old age, like the Japanese painter whose artist's name became "Old Man Mad About Painting." Last year a lot of us went to KUROSAWA'S DREAMS, thinking it would be sensei's last hurrah. Fortunately, we youngsters were wrong again.
RHAPSODY is about the way humans forget about painful memories and the importance of remembering and conquering that pain. Pain in this case is in the form of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, as remembered by an old woman Kane (Sachiko Murase) and as discovered by her children and grandchildren.
The grandchildren are the narrative focus of the film. They are stuck with spending the summer at an old-fashioned farm over the mountain from Nagasaki. Granny's been invited to take them to Hawaii to meet the American branch of the family, including Richard Gere (the first American to be cast in a Kurosawa film). She refuses because her husband died that day 9 August 1945. On a shopping trip to Nagasaki, the kids in their American t-shirts discover memorials to the bomb and its victims. For the first time, the horror of that day comes home to them. Kane's children treat the story as bad manners that might offend their new, rich American connections. Gere flies to Japan to apologize, not for the bomb, but for not ever thinking about how his uncle might have died, no never thinking about it.
The scene between Gere and the grandmother is only one of many wondrous moments in this film. His performance, which occupies less than a third of the film, is warm, effortless, mostly in Japanese. Indeed, sensei himself says the film is about human warmth, feelings, kindness. And I would add justice. In the end, Kane has committed a unkindness herself and the final scene of her expiation is remarkable for its visual quality and for the audacious sound track that accompanies it.
Murase as Kane is the soul and emotional and moral center of the movie. Her frail tiny body, with its beautiful face like a mask, burns with a fiery fear and compassion. That final scene, unforgettable as it is, is only one of many, for example, Granny "visiting" her fellow survivor, or Granny eating a bean, that continue to burn vividly in my memory.
The children are charming, but not quite real. They come closest to being mere stick figures that exist only to announce the sensei's message. For better or worse, Kurosawa-san is an artist who is willing to take a chance, even with telling us what we need to hear.
As a film maker, sensei has eschewed the lavish costumes and period charm of RAN and segments of DREAMS to produce what might be the definitive Japanese film. He sticks to medium- and low-camera angles without closeups, long static scenes, and intimate human interactions (as Jeff Shannon pointed out in his review in the Seattle P-I).
To anyone who thinks he or she can sit through a very non-Hollywood film, I recommend RHAPSODY IN AUGUST most highly. Pay what you have to, it's for a good cause.

FIRST READING Hebrews 10:11-18
A reading from the Letter to the Hebrews
Every priest stands daily at his service, offering
repeatedly the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins. But when Christ
had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right
hand of God, then to wait until his enemies should be made a stool for his
feet. For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are
sanctified. And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,
"This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says
the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their
minds," then he adds, "I will remember their sins and their misdeeds
no more." Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any
offering for sin.

RESPONSORIAL PSALM Psalm 89:4-5.27-28.29-30 (R. see 29a)
R. I will keep my faithful love for him always.
With my chosen one I have made a covenant; I have
sworn to David my servant: I will establish your descendants for ever, and set
up your throne through all ages.
R. I will keep my faithful love for him always.
He will call out to me: 'You are my father, my God,
the rock of my salvation.' I for my part will make him my firstborn, the
highest of the kings of the earth.
R. I will keep my faithful love for him always.
I will keep my faithful love for him always; with
him my covenant shall last. I will establish his descendants for ever, and his
throne as lasting as the days of heaven.
R. I will keep my faithful love for him always.
R. Alleluia. The seed is the word of God, and the sower is Christ; all who find him will abide for ever. R. Alleluia.
GOSPEL Mark 4:1-20
A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark
At that time: Again Jesus began to teach beside the
sea. And a very large crowd gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and
sat in it on the sea; and the whole crowd was beside the sea on the land. And
he taught them many things in parables, and in his teaching he said to them:
"Listen! A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the
birds came and devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky ground, where it had not
much soil, and immediately it sprang up, since it had no depth of soil; and
when the sun rose it was scorched, and since it had no root it withered away.
Other seed fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it
yielded no grain. And other seeds fell into good soil and brought forth grain,
growing up and increasing and yielding thirtyfold and
sixtyfold and a hundredfold." And he said,
"He who has ears to hear, let him hear." And when he was alone, those
who were about him with the twelve asked him concerning the parables. And he
said to them, "To you has been given the secret of the kingdom of God, but
for those outside everything is in parables; so that they may indeed see but
not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand; lest they should turn
again, and be forgiven." And he said to them, "Do you not understand
this parable? How then will you understand all the parables? The sower sows the word. And these are the ones along the path,
where the word is sown; when they hear, Satan immediately comes and takes away
the word which is sown in them. And these in like manner are the ones sown upon
rocky ground, who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy; and
they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation
or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away. And
others are the ones sown among thorns; they are those who hear the word, but
the cares of the world, and the delight in riches, and the desire for other
things, enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful. But those that
were sown upon the good soil are the ones who hear the word and accept it and
bear fruit, thirtyfold and sixtyfold
and a hundredfold."

I have a longstanding passion for all things 'tech,' so to be able to join the Code Fellows family has been a bucket list item for a number years.
Professionally I am taking this opportunity the DoD has offered me to absorb as much as I can in hopes of using that knowledge to protect our nation from those who would do us harm.
Personally, I am so excited to make use of these web development skills to build in customized functionality to my own website project below...

Abstract:• In this invited presentation I describe how we prepare for 5G in my research division. The background is that we have contributed to 3G and 4G developments with two commercial successes: the hat-fed reflector antenna for backhaul radio links, and Bluetest reverberation chambers for OTA (Oer-The-Air) characterization of devices with MIMO and OFDM. • 5G means Gbit/s data rates, for which higher frequencies are needed towards the user terminal, may be up to 30 or 60 GHz. This means that the multipath will be weaker as it gradually diminishes when frequency increases. Therefore, we prepare by introducing a Random-LOS (RLOS) complement to the OTA testing in Rich Isotropic Multipath (RIMP) being provided by Bluetest’s reverberation chambers. • Further, high gain steerable beams will be needed, requiring new planar packaging solutions for closer integration of antennas and RF chipsets. Therefore, we prepare by research on gap waveguides. Massive MIMO have many technological uncertainties, so others also consider oldfashioned phased arrays, but they will not work in RIMP. • The best hardware can only be chosen if we know how to characterize the system performance. The radiation pattern and realized gain cannot be used directly for this purpose due to all the statistical variations caused by the arbitrariness of the user. Therefore, we introduce instead the Probability of Detection (PoD) as a quality metric. This will be different for each desired number of bitstreams. Further, we quantify the difference between different PoD curves in dBiid in RIMP, i.e. in dB relative to the i.i.d. (independent identically distributed) case, and in dBt in RLOS, i.e. in dB relative to an ideal polarization- and coverage-matched threshold receiver. • The presentation will give an overview of this research.

Different visitors to your site will have different sized screens that show different amounts of information, so your design needs to be able to work on a range of different sized screens.
Users now use phones, tablet devices, TV screens to access the web.
Screen resoLution
Resolution refers to the number of dots a screen shows per inch. Some devices have a higher resolution than desktop computers and most operating systems allow users to adjust the resolution of their screens.
Fixed width layouts
Fixed width layout designs do not change size as the user increases or decreases the size of their browser window. Measurements tend to be given in pixels
Liquid layouts
Liquid layout designs stretch and contract as the user increases or decreases the size of their browser window. They tend to use percentages.
Because liquid layouts can stretch the entire width of the browser, resulting in long lines of text that are hard to read, some liquid layouts only let part of the page expand and contract. Other parts of the page have minimum and maximum widths.
Adaptive Design VS Responsive Design
Adaptive VS Responsive Design
Adaptive Web Design is different from Responsive Design in that there isn't one layout that always changes. Instead, there are several distinct layouts for multiple screen sizes, and the layout used depends on the screen size used.
Add a breakpoint
Add a breakpoint where certain parts of the design will behave differently on each side of the breakpoint.
Media Queries
A media query consists of a media type and at least one expression that limits the style sheets' scope by using media features, such as width, height, and color. Media queries, added in CSS3, let the presentation of content be tailored to a specific range of output devices without having to change the content itself
Media Types
all - Suitable for all devices.
print - Intended for paged material and documents viewed on a screen in print preview mode.
screen - Intended primarily for screens.
speech - Intended for speech synthesizers.
Media Features
Media queries look at the capability of the device, and can be used to check many things, such as:
width and height of the viewport
width and height of the device
orientation (is the tablet/phone in landscape or portrait mode?)
A media query consists of a media type and can contain one or more expressions, which resolve to either true or false.
The result of the query is true if the specified media type matches the type of device the document is being displayed on and all expressions in the media query are true. When a media query is true, the corresponding style sheet or style rules are applied, following the normal cascading rules.
@media not|only mediatype and (expressions) {
CSS-Code;
}
Media Query Syntax (2)
You can also have different stylesheets for different media
E.g.:
@media screen and (max-width: 480px) {
body {
background-color: lightgreen;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 900px) {
.class {
background: #666;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 900px) {
.class {
background: #333;
}
}
Mobile First
Always Design for Mobile First
Mobile First means designing for mobile before designing for desktop or any other device (This will make the page display faster on smaller devices).
Mobile First
html { background: red; }
@media screen and (min-width: 600px) {
html { background: green; }
}
Desktop First
html { background: red; }
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
html { background: green; }
}

Musk's SpaceX launches second batch of 60 Starlink satellites
by Dana HullElon Musk’s Space Exploration Technologies Corp. launched its second batch of 60 Starlink satellites early Monday, a step toward Musk’s vision of creating a space-based network to provide broadband service around the world.
One of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rockets rumbled aloft at 9:56 a.m. local time from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. The satellites are scheduled to begin deploying about an hour after the launch.
A space-based internet service will be an important source of funding for the closely held company, Musk has said. He founded SpaceX in 2002 with the ultimate goal of enabling people to live on other planets. SpaceX launched its first batch of satellites in May and has tinkered with the design to increase spectrum capacity.
SpaceX plans to continue launching Starlink satellites in batches and says it’s targeting service to parts of the northern U.S. and Canada in 2020, according to Starlink’s website.
“We see this as a way for SpaceX to generate revenue that can be used to develop more advanced rockets and spaceships,” Musk told journalists during a conference call in May. “This is a key stepping stone on the way toward establishing a self-sustaining city on Mars and a base on the moon.”


{% define "title" %}I/O Live Embed Widget{% end %} {% define "mastheadBgClass" %}bg-dark-grey{% end %} {% define "masthead" %}
A widget to embed on your website that allows you to deliver highlights and live announcements directly from Google I/O. It features the following elements:
Yes. Here's what you can customize:
On the configuration page, under "Customize your widget" just select which content you want to display and what size you want the widget to have. As you select the different options, the preview section adapts in real time so you can see exactly how the widget will look once embedded on your website.
After you customize the widget to your preference, scroll to "3. Embed this code into your site" at the bottom of this page. Copy the HTML code and add it to your website.
You can embed the widget in advance of Google I/O. We encourage you to embed it as soon as possible to get your audience excited to tune in on the event dates.
The social feed will surface public posts from the @GoogleDevs page made before and during Google I/O.
Yes. As long as the widget is embedded on your website, viewers will still be able to scroll through the feed and see I/O announcements and highlights published on @GoogleDevs.
No. The only Twitter feed that can be added to the widget is the one from @GoogleDevs as it's the official Google I/O social channel.
Not directly from the widget but they can access the original posts on Twitter by clicking on each tweet. Once on Twitter, viewers can reply, retweet or favorite tweets as usual.
The widget doesn't have built-in analytics, but Google Analytics does provide real-time reports so you can get an idea of how many active users are on the page where the widget is hosted.


Getting started with adding security features after configuring your CentOS 6.6 server.
Additional Recommendations for New Servers - CentOS 6.6
Difficulty: 1
Time: 10 minutes
After installing CentOS 6.6, you can configure some additional components. These steps are optional but recommended as they increase security and make your operating system work better.
This article guides you through setting up a firewall and synchronizing Network Time Protocol (NTP).
If you haven't already set up your server, see Initial Server Setup - CentOS for instructions, including setting up user accounts. Make sure to set up a user account with sudo
privileges.
Set up a basic firewall
Like most other Linux™ systems, the default firewall on CentOS 6.6 is iptables. iptables is the full suite of commands used to manage netfilter, the Linux packet-filtering framework.
We'll configure a basic iptables setup from the command line.
Check iptables installation
- Make sure that iptables is installed:
rpm -q iptables
iptables is installed by default on CentOS 6 systems. If it's installed, the output shows which version you have. For example:
iptables-1.4.7-14.el6.x86_64
- Check the status of your firewall to see if it's running:
sudo service iptables status
The output looks similar to this:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
The rules are blank because they haven't been set up yet. That's our next step.
Create firewall rules
Define exceptions to your firewall policy so that you can activate your firewall.
- Flush, or clear, the existing rules:
sudo iptables -F
- Allow secure shell (SSH) connections. By default, the SSH daemon runs on port 22.
So allow inbound and outbound traffic from that port:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
- Open the firewall as needed.
Here are the commands to add some common services and open their respective ports:
- To run a standard HTTP web server, allow incoming http traffic:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
- To run an SSL/TLS-enabled web server, allow for https traffic:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
- To enable your SMTP email connection, enable the smtp service:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --sport 25 -j ACCEPT
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --sport 25 -j ACCEPT
Save and restart your firewall
- Review your exceptions by doing one of the following:
- Run this command with the
-L
switch to see the domain names of the sources and destinations:
sudo iptables -L
-
Run the command with an added
-n
switch to see the IP addresses instead of domains:
sudo iptables -L -n
- If all the rules look correct, save your firewall configuration:
sudo iptables-save | sudo tee /etc/sysconfig/iptables
- Restart your firewall:
sudo service iptables restart
This applies your exceptions, blocks all other traffic, and configures your firewall to start automatically at startup.
If you configure additional services later, make sure to open those respective ports.
For even more indepth instructions on configuring iptables, see Set Up a Firewall Using iptables - CentOS.
Configure your system's time zone and NTP
Localize your server by configuring the time.
When different computer or server programs with out-of-sync clocks communicate with each other, switching between these systems can cause the time to jump back and forth. This jumping can result in undesirable effects such as email replies appearing to arrive before the original message is sent.
To resolve this issue, set your correct time zone, and then synchronize the system clock to the standard time maintained by a global network of NTP servers.
Check your time zone
With your server newly installed, the time zone is from /etc/localtime
,
usr/share/zoneinfo/
and likely needs to be updated.
- Check the date and time of your system :
date
ls -l /etc/localtime
- Optionally, check the time zone from your system's hardware clock:
sudo vim /etc/sysconfig/clock
-
Close the file to return to the command line.
Update your time zone
- Identify your time zone by listing the time zones and then finding yours in the list:
sudo ls /usr/share/zoneinfo/
- Drill down by adding your zone to the directory:
sudo ls /usr/share/zoneinfo/America
- Find the city/area that applies best to you. For this example, we'll set our time to Los Angeles, CA (US).
- Open the
sysconfig
file again:
sudo vim /etc/sysconfig/clock
- Change the ZONE in the file:
ZONE="America/Los_Angeles"
- Save and close.
- Set the time zone to our local time:
sudo cp /etc/localtime /root/old.timezone
sudo rm /etc/localtime
sudo ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles /etc/localtime
- Verify your settings:
date
ls -l /etc/localtime
Configure NTP synchronization
Next, configure your Network Time Protocol (NTP). NTP is an Internet protocol that synchronizes time of computer clocks across the Internet and helps to determine when events happened between systems. A client requests the current time from an NTP server and then uses the server's response to set its own clock. Afterward, your computer is accurately synced with networked time servers.
-
Install the NTP daemon:
sudo yum install ntp
- Enable NTP:
sudo chkconfig ntpd on
- Synchronize the system clock:
sudo ntpdate pool.ntp.org
- Start NTP:
sudo /etc/init.d/ntpd start
NTP synchronization is now active on your server. Your system adjusts the time throughout the day to match up with global NTP servers.
Next steps
Your setup is complete! Remember that you can always add on to your configuration as you add more services.

Nate Diaz suspended for 90 days following UFC 224 defeat to Jorge Masvidal
Nate Diaz could see his return to the Octagon delayed after his defeat to Jorge Masvidal at UFC 244
by Rich Jones, https://www.mirror.co.uk/authors/rich-jones/Nate Diaz has been handed a 90 day medical suspension as a result of the cut he suffered in his defeat to Jorge Masvidal at UFC 244.
Diaz suffered two nasty cuts to the right side of his face - one above and one below the eye - in the early stages of his huge BMF title showdown with Masvidal.
The fight was controversially stopped at the end of round three when the doctor intervened and ruled Diaz was unable to continue.
And Diaz has now received a medical suspension which prevents him for competing for at least 90 days to allow the cuts to fully heal.
As a result, his return to the Octagon is set to be delayed with him unable to even contemplate a comeback until early February.
Diaz has struggled with cuts throughout his career, and Dana White revealed after the fight he could undergo plastic surgery similar to the procedure undergone by brother Nick to solve the issue.
“Diaz has to get sewed up tonight then in four weeks he’s gotta have plastic surgery to get all the cartilage out of his eyebrows, or whatever the doctor was telling me. He’s gotta have some work done,” White said.
The winner of the bout, Masvidal, has also been handed a 30 day medical suspension to recover from the bout.
He offered Diaz an immediate rematch with both fighters upset by what they felt was a premature stoppage in an exciting fight.
The same 30 day suspension has been handed to Darren Till and his opponent Kelvin Gastelum, whilst three other fighters, Andrei Arlovski, Makwan Amirkhani and Chance Rencountre have also been suspended for 90 days after heavy defeats.


Persistent storage is now experimentally supported using the persistent stevedore. It has the same command line arguments as the file stevedore.
obj.* is now called beresp.* in vcl_fetch, and obj.* is now read-only.
The regular expression engine is now PCRE instead of POSIX regular expressions.
req.* is now available in vcl_deliver.
Add saint mode where we can attempt to grace an object if we don't like the backend response for some reason.
Related, add saintmode_threshold which is the threshold for the number of objects to be added to the trouble list before the backend is considered sick.
Add a new hashing method called critbit. This autoscales and should work better on large object workloads than the classic hash. Critbit has been made the default hash algorithm.
When closing connections, we experimented with sending RST to free up load balancers and free up threads more quickly. This caused some problems with NAT routers and so has been reverted for now.
Add thread that checks objects against ban list in order to prevent ban list from growing forever. Note that this needs purges to be written so they don't depend on req.*. Enabled by setting ban_lurker_sleep to a nonzero value.
The shared memory log file format was limited to maximum 64k simultaneous connections. This is now a 32 bit field which removes this limitation.
Remove obj_workspace, this is now sized automatically.
Rename acceptors to waiters
vcl_prefetch has been removed. It was never fully implemented.
Add support for authenticating CLI connections.
Add hash director that chooses which backend to use depending on req.hash.
Add client director that chooses which backend to use depending on the client's IP address. Note that this ignores the X-Forwarded-For header.
varnishd now displays a banner by default when you connect to the CLI.
Increase performance somewhat by moving statistics gathering into a per-worker structure that is regularly flushed to the global stats.
Make sure we store the header and body of object together. This may in some cases improve performance and is needed for persistence.
Remove client-side address accounting. It was never used for anything and presented a performance problem.
Add a timestamp to bans, so you can know how old they are.
Quite a few people got confused over the warning about not being able to lock the shared memory log into RAM, so stop warning about that.
Change the default CLI timeout to 10 seconds.
We previously forced all inserts into the cache to be GET requests. This has been changed to allow POST as well in order to be able to implement purge-on-POST semantics.
The CLI command stats now only lists non-zero values.
The CLI command stats now only lists non-zero values.
Use daemon(3) from libcompat on Darwin.
Remove vcl_discard as it causes too much complexity and never actually worked particularly well.
Remove vcl_timeout as it causes too much complexity and never actually worked particularly well.
Update the documentation so it refers to sess_workspace, not http_workspace.
Document the -i switch to varnishd as well as the server.identity and server.hostname VCL variables.
purge.hash is now deprecated and no longer shown in help listings.
When processing ESI, replace the five mandatory XML entities when we encounter them.
Add string representations of time and relative time.
Add locking for n_vbe_conn to make it stop underflowing.
When ESI-processing content, check for illegal XML character entities.
Varnish can now connect its CLI to a remote instance when starting up, rather than just being connected to.
It is no longer needed to specify the maximum number of HTTP headers to allow from backends. This is now a run-time parameter.
The X-Forwarded-For header is now generated by vcl_recv rather than the C code.
It is now possible to not send all CLI traffic to syslog.
It is now possible to not send all CLI traffic to syslog.
In the case of varnish crashing, it now outputs a identifying string with the OS, OS revision, architecture and storage parameters together with the backtrace.
Use exponential backoff when we run out of file descriptors or sessions.
Allow setting backend timeouts to zero.
Count uptime in the shared memory log.
Try to detect the case of two running varnishes with the same shmlog and storage by writing the master and child process ids to the shmlog and refusing to start if they are still running.
Make sure to use EOF mode when serving ESI content to HTTP/1.0 clients.
Make sure we close the connection if it either sends Connection: close or it is a HTTP/1.0 backend that does not send Connection: keep-alive.
Increase the default session workspace to 64k on 64-bit systems.
Make the epoll waiter use level triggering, not edge triggering as edge triggering caused problems on very busy servers.
Handle unforeseen client disconnections better on Solaris.
Make session lingering apply to new sessions, not just reused sessions.
Make use of the new uptime field in the shared memory log rather than synthesizing it from the start time.
Exit at the end of the file when started with -d.
varnishadm can now have a timeout when trying to connect to the running varnishd.
varnishadm now knows how to respond to the secret from a secured varnishd


Nyzo version 593 (commit on GitHub) adds a fallback score calculation for blocks from new verifiers. This should prevent the stalls that occurred when attempting to add new verifiers to the cycle.
This version affects the verifier.
We have been planning on a full rework of the BlockManager class. The concept of the cycle, and the integrity of the rules of the proof of diversity, are central to Nyzo's validity as a challenger to proof-of-work. The BlockManager is responsible for maintaining information necessary to enforce proof-of-diversity rules, and it has done the job well. However, it is quite complicated, and this complication has led us to be exceptionally careful when making changes to this class.
In version 588, we made a change to the initialization process of BlockManager. While the code changes were small, we tested them extensively, and we reviewed the code repeatedly to ensure that no regressions were introduced.
However, when stalls started to appear when attempting to add new verifiers, those stalls certainly seemed to be tied to the BlockManager, leading us to be concerned that an unnoticed issue had gotten past our testing for version 588. Our first symptom correction, a modification of new-verifier scoring in version 590, was accurate in its location but lacking in its understanding of the root problem.
The second symptom correction, a retention of blocks in version 591, was similarly close but incomplete. When this correction failed, a request to temporarily close the cycle to new verifiers was issued. The frequent stalls were frustrating to cycle operators, and they were frustrating to us. We needed some time to step back and really understand the issue.
We thank the cycle for temporarily closing entrance, and we feel that we now have a sufficiently complete understanding of the problem.
The problem, as has been the case with several issues resulting in blockchain stall, was due to an incomplete initialization state concurrently in too many verifiers in the cycle. Similar has been seen with verifiers unable to score any blocks, thus unable to vote at all or produce blocks, which are depicted as orange on the cycle page.
In this case, the verifiers were unable to score blocks only from new verifiers. An additional two cycles of history are required for new verifiers than are required for existing verifiers with the current scoring logic. While we were concerned that our version-588 changes to BlockManager caused a regression, we found that versions older than 588 exhibited the same problem when tested.
The fixes for this version have been kept to a minimum for clarity. This is not a situation where we want to make sweeping changes to drastically improve the system, though we do intend to make such changes soon. This is a situation where we want a precise, targeted fix that corrects the problem and leaves little room for doubt over whether the problem was properly diagnosed and resolved.
In Block.getMinimumVoteTimestamp() and Block.chainScore(), an argument called isConsensusChoice was added. The default value of this argument is false, and the behavior of these methods is unchanged when the value is false.
In Block.chainScore(), the isConsensusChoice argument is used in the precise location, matching only the precise logic, that caused stalls before. If the continuity state cannot be determined, but the cycle information can be determined and the verifier is above the 50% consensus threshold, then a valid score (7) is assigned.
In BlockManager, the changes made to likelyAcceptingNewVerifiers() in version 592 were reverted.
In NewVerifierQueueManager, fields were added for sending top-new-verifier votes periodically even if they are unchanged. Timed updates can be especially useful when a stall occurs, because the normal changes and resulting broadcasts that occur due to blockchain progression are absent. These timed updates can help ensure continued coherence of information among the members of the cycle even if processing is not moving forward.
The NewVerifierQueueManager.updateVote() method utilizes the new fields to conduct a periodic broadcast even if the vote has not changed. A broadcast is still performed immediately when the vote changes.
In NewVerifierVoteManager, the hard-coded override of version 592 was reverted.
In UnfrozenBlockManager.updateVote(), the isConsensusChoice value is now passed to the getMinimumVoteTimestamp() method of the leading block. Note that this is the only consequential change in voting logic. The voteCount > votingPoolSize / 2 expression was encapsulated in the isConsensusChoice variable to allow reuse and to improve readability. A label describing the score is now appended to the vote description.
However, these do not voting change behavior. The only behavioral change is passing isConsensusChoice() to the leading block's getMinimumVoteTimestamp() method, which will result in a timestamp corresponding to a block score of 7 in limited cases that would have otherwise resulted in an unusable timestamp corresponding to a block score of Long.MAX_VALUE - 1.
In Verifier, the NewVerifierQueueManager.updateVote() method is now called on a regular timed interval instead of being called when a block is frozen. This ensures that it will continue to be called even if blockchain processing stalls.
Additionally, there is a new method, called once each time a block is frozen, to test scoring of a block from an out-of-cycle verifier.
The createAndScoreNewBlock() method creates a block, signs it with a dummy seed, and prints the score of the block.
If you want to activate the test method, add the following line to /var/lib/nyzo/production/preferences.
create_and_score_test_new_verifier_block=1
If you have activated this method and restarted your verifier running the latest code, you can observe the scoring problem that lead to the recent stalls, and you can see how the new isConsensusChoice argument corrects the problem. If you run the following command from the terminal on your verifier, you will see the scores for the test blocks as they are produced.
tail -f /var/log/nyzo-verifier.log | grep 'chain score for new verifier'
The test method uses a value of true for the isConsensusChoice parameter for even-height blocks and a value of false for odd-height blocks. When a verifier has just restarted, the score will alternate between MAX-1, the value assigned to an unscorable block, and 7, the value assigned to a new verifier that is the consensus leader.
chain score for new verifier: MAX-1, block: [Block: v=2, height=7821937, hash=39e2...5c32, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=false
chain score for new verifier: 7, block: [Block: v=2, height=7821938, hash=4f98...e379, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=true
chain score for new verifier: MAX-1, block: [Block: v=2, height=7821939, hash=a01a...4f88, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=false
chain score for new verifier: 7, block: [Block: v=2, height=7821940, hash=3a13...edd2, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=true
chain score for new verifier: MAX-1, block: [Block: v=2, height=7821941, hash=e8bb...a82e, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=false
After two cycles, the verifier will be able to score new-verifier blocks on its own. At that point, you will see values alternate between 9, the value assigned to a least-preferred but scorable new verifier, and 7, the value assigned to a new verifier that is the consensus leader.
chain score for new verifier: 7, block: [Block: v=2, height=7826184, hash=e31b...8220, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=true
chain score for new verifier: 9, block: [Block: v=2, height=7826185, hash=cdc1...b118, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=false
chain score for new verifier: 7, block: [Block: v=2, height=7826186, hash=8b62...34dd, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=true
chain score for new verifier: 9, block: [Block: v=2, height=7826187, hash=2d3a...e716, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=false
chain score for new verifier: 7, block: [Block: v=2, height=7826188, hash=c4b0...daaf, id=5ef0...c775],
consensus choice=true
One final note: while we have tested, retested, and analyzed these changes thoroughly, recreating a test environment similar to the existing Nyzo cycle is exceptionally challenging. If some detail was overlooked and the blockchain continues to stall, rolling back to 592 or casting of invalid new-verifier votes can be used to block new-verifier entrances again to prevent repeated stalls.

Identification and cloning of TCF-1, a T lymphocyte-specific transcription factor containing a sequence-specific HMG box.
Abstract
CD3 -epsilon expression is controlled by a downstream T lymphocyte-specific enhancer element. We report the identification of a T cell-specific transcription factor, TCF-1, binding to this element. The multimerized recognition motif of TCF-1 constituted a T cell-specific enhancer. Subsequent cloning of TCF-1 identified three splice alternatives. TCF-1 contained a single DNA-binding HMG box most closely related to similar boxes in the putative mammalian sex-determining gene SRY and in the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Mc mating type gene. TCF-1 mRNA was expressed uniquely in T lymphocytes. Upon cotransfection into non-T cells, TCF-1 could transactivate through its cognate motif. These results identify TCF-1 as a T cell-specific transcription factor, which might play a role in the establishment of the mature T cell phenotype.


When a base class has overloads for a function and you redefine that function in a derived class, only the overload that you redefine will be visible, all other overloads will be hidden.
class Base
{
public:
virtual void foo();
virtual void foo(int x);
};
class Derived : public Base
{
public:
void foo();
};
Derived d;
d.foo(); // works, calls Derived::foo
d.foo(5); // fails, foo(int x) is hidden by Derived
To make all versions visible, use a using statement:
class Derived : public Base
{
public:
void foo();
};
Now all overloads of Base::foo() are visible:
Derived d.
d.foo(); // works, calls Derived::foo
