Monitoring
Monitoring
DistributedLog uses the stats library provided by Apache BookKeeper for reporting metrics in both the server and the client. This can be configured to report stats using pluggable stats provider to integrate with your monitoring system.
Stats Provider
StatsProvider is a provider that provides different kinds of stats logger for different scopes. The provider is also responsible for reporting its managed metrics.
// Create the stats provider StatsProvider statsProvider = ...; // Start the stats provider statsProvider.start(conf); // Stop the stats provider statsProvider.stop();
Stats Logger
A scoped StatsLogger is a stats logger that records 3 kinds of statistics under a given scope.
A StatsLogger could be either created by obtaining from stats provider with the scope name:
StatsProvider statsProvider = ...; StatsLogger statsLogger = statsProvider.scope("test-scope");
Or created by obtaining from a stats logger with a sub scope name:
StatsLogger rootStatsLogger = ...; StatsLogger subStatsLogger = rootStatsLogger.scope("sub-scope");
All the metrics in a stats provider are managed in a hierarchical of scopes.
// all stats recorded by `rootStatsLogger` are under 'root' StatsLogger rootStatsLogger = statsProvider.scope("root"); // all stats recorded by 'subStatsLogger1` are under 'root/scope1' StatsLogger subStatsLogger1 = statsProvider.scope("scope1"); // all stats recorded by 'subStatsLogger2` are under 'root/scope2' StatsLogger subStatsLogger2 = statsProvider.scope("scope2");
Counters
A Counter is a cumulative metric that represents a single numerical value. A counter is typically used to count requests served, tasks completed, errors occurred, etc. Counters should not be used to expose current counts of items whose number can also go down, e.g. the number of currently running tasks. Use Gauges for this use case.
To change a counter, use:
StatsLogger statsLogger = ...; Counter births = statsLogger.getCounter("births"); // increment the counter births.inc(); // decrement the counter births.dec(); // change the counter by delta births.add(-10); // reset the counter births.reset();
Gauges
A Gauge is a metric that represents a single numerical value that can arbitrarily go up and down.
Gauges are typically used for measured values like temperatures or current memory usage, but also "counts" that can go up and down, like the number of running tasks.
To define a gauge, stick the following code somewhere in the initialization:
final AtomicLong numPendingRequests = new AtomicLong(0L); StatsLogger statsLogger = ...; statsLogger.registerGauge( "num_pending_requests", new Gauge<Number>() { @Override public Number getDefaultValue() { return 0; } @Override public Number getSample() { return numPendingRequests.get(); } });
The gauge must always return a numerical value when sampling.
Metrics (OpStats)
A OpStats is a set of metrics that represents the statistics of an operation. Those metrics include success or failure of the operations and its distribution (also known as Histogram). It is usually used for timing.
StatsLogger statsLogger = ...; OpStatsLogger writeStats = statsLogger.getOpStatsLogger("writes"); long writeLatency = ...; // register success op writeStats.registerSuccessfulEvent(writeLatency); // register failure op writeStats.registerFailedEvent(writeLatency);
Available Stats Providers
All the available stats providers are listed as below:
- Twitter Science Stats (deprecated)
- Twitter Ostrich Stats (deprecated)
- Twitter Finagle Stats
- Codahale Stats
Twitter Science Stats
Use following dependency to enable Twitter science stats provider.
<dependency> <groupId>org.apache.bookkeeper.stats</groupId> <artifactId>twitter-science-provider</artifactId> <version>${bookkeeper.version}</version> </dependency>
Construct the stats provider for clients.
StatsProvider statsProvider = new TwitterStatsProvider(); DistributedLogConfiguration conf = ...; // starts the stats provider (optional) statsProvider.start(conf); // all the dl related stats are exposed under "dlog" StatsLogger statsLogger = statsProvider.getStatsLogger("dlog"); DistributedLogNamespace namespace = DistributedLogNamespaceBuilder.newBuilder() .uri(...) .conf(conf) .statsLogger(statsLogger) .build(); ... // stop the stats provider (optional) statsProvider.stop();
Expose the stats collected by the stats provider by configuring following settings:
// enable exporting the stats statsExport=true // exporting the stats at port 8080 statsHttpPort=8080
If exporting stats is enabled, all the stats are exported by the http endpoint. You could curl the http endpoint to check the stats.

ANALYZE THIS (1999) A Film Review by Ted Prigge Copyright 1999 Ted Prigge
Director: Harold Ramis Writers: Peter Tolan, Harold Ramis, and Ken Lonergan Starring: Robert DeNiro, Billy Crystal, Lisa Kudrow, Joe Viterelli, Richard C. Castallano, Chazz Palminteri, Kyle Sabihy, Bill Macy, Leo Rossi, Max Casella, Molly Shannon, Tony Bennett
The early buzz on "Analyze This" has already deemed it the Best Film of 1999, and strangely enough, not more than two months into this year, this is what we have to single out as the best film so far. The first couple months of the year are filled to excess with films left over from last year that were originally supposed to get a nice, pre-January release amongst the rest of the winners, and luckily enough we get to see films that were released only partially before January to take advantage of a potential Oscar nomination that are still being released (I believe Boorman's much-touted "The General" is due in a couple weeks). Then there are the other kinds of films -- the ones that were actually supposed to be released in '99 and weren't actual holdovers because of a lack of studio support, and these films luckily enough show that they actually are good films, although this kind of film is extremely rare. And so we have "Analyze This," one of the first 1999 release on purpose, and one which, while isn't going to be topping either my best or worst lists at the end of this year, it is currently topping my best-of-99 (for the record, this list consists of this and "Payback"), although I doubt that it'll occupy that place for longer than a couple weeks at best.
Oft hilarious, and boasting a silly premise that would cause Ivan Reitman to blush, "Analyze This" is a suprisingly smart and original comedy without ever actually being drop-dead great. Like several films of its kind, it's not funny in a totally consistent way and several elements don't exactly work. Unlike those kinds of films, it covers its bases by being consistently clever and managing to stretch out an otherwise lame premise into an hour and forty-five minutes of celluloid without ever feeling tiresome or losing steam.  It drops two actors known for filling those stereotypes with life and, best of all, with box office returns (though not all the time): Robert DeNiro, playing the uptight mafiaso, and Billy Crystal, playing the nervous analyst. You can almost hear the oo's and ah's from studio heads when you hear this. Next, they bring in a director known for lightweight comedies, Harold Ramis (they could have easily gotten Frank Oz or, yeah, Ivan Reitman), shoot it, do an ad campaign, and watch the money roll in.
Of course, "Analyze This" hasn't been released yet, and for all I know, it could be another in a recent line of bombs for Crystal or another mediocre quasi-hit for DeNiro, but nevertheless, this is a film designed almost from a Hollywood mold. For the most part it plays like that, but that it's actually successful as a clever and witty piece of americana comedy is what makes it better than, say, "Kindergarten Cop" or "Twins," just to name two films that once scored with audiences with ridiculous premises and are now looked down upon with regret (well, at least by me). I may regret saying this, but I doubt I'll ever hate myself for enjoying the hell out of this flick. "Analyze This" scores by making us actually seeing a reason why these two very different stereotypes would come together: a mob boss undoutedly has a whole lot of stress built up over the years, and "Analyze This" almost seems to be jumping on the bandwagon of "Grosse Pointe Blank," and saying that if anything, the latter half of the '90s is a time not for everyone to be a wild neurotic, in search of an analyst to make him (or her) feel better about themselves, including gangsters.
DeNiro's character, one Paul Vitti, has a whole lot of stress, and at first seems too stubborn to take care of it logically (he has a doctor rubbed over a bit when he tells him he had a panic attack and not a heartattack), but when one of his henchmen (Joe Viterelli, the mob boss from "Bullets Over Broadway") has a small car accident with a therapist (Crystal) and is given his card to perhaps pay for any damages, Vitti decides to go ahead with it. The therapist, Ben, is himself a little bored with his job, tired of hearing overly neurotic patients (one of them being a wonderfully whiny Molly Shannon), but is still reluctant to have a mob boss as one of his patients, indeed his primary patient, not the least because Vitti's sudden strike of anxiety coincides with his upcoming wedding to a Miami-based meteorologist (Lisa Kudrow). And when Vitti forces Ben to help him, interupting several key moments in his life (his wedding. twice.), he discovers that the FBI is on to him and wondering who he is and what his connections are to Vitti. Ben never becomes exactly joyful that he's helping Vitti (except when he finally learns some cold hard truths about his past that are oh so freudian), but Vitti doesn't care because all he wants is a quick psychological fix before his big bosses meeting in a couple weeks, where he has to be able to pull himself together emotionally and show what a big, powerful, tough man he is, not the weeping sap that he turns into every now and then.
Among many things, "Analyze This" promises the hilarious, priceless sight of DeNiro weeping uncontrollably several times (once during a maudlin commercial) along with the toughness that DeNiro can bring to any role, both which are used to comic effect. And though it's mighty humorous to see DeNiro showing good spirits and parodying his macho, testosterone toughness in movies like "Raging Bull" and "Goodfellas," and though he's great, Crystal nearly upstages him in one of his five best performances. Nervous but rigid, controlled yet flustered, Crystal is absolutely priceless, and by being so reserved, he's much easier to intake than in other more over-the-top and slightly unbearable performances, where he's constantly trying to win you over with an overly-anxious energy paired with rip-offs of vaudevillian jokes ("Forget Paris," I'm looking your way...). Together, they may not be the next Abbot and Costello or even Matthau and Lemmon, but they're opposite personalities and the way they respect eachother's respective personality traits makes "Analyze This" into a rather smooth and digestible comedy.
The screenplay's not half bad either: there are plenty of lovely one-liners, that's sure, and the official first funny joke concerning the Internet that I've heard, but there's also a surprising amount of nice story development there too, and none of the subplots really seem to be overbearing or not milked well enough (save for bits and pieces with Kudrow, who's underutilized for as talented as I think she is...and yes, I realize she's a "Friends" cast member co-starring in a movie, but let's face it, she's the one with the good deal of movie smarts). Subplots involving the FBI and a vindictive fellow mob boss (Chazz Palminterri) are used nicely, and most terrific of all, the film never ever resorts to sappy sentamentalism. Everything's handled with the correct tone of light-handedness (even the violence is non-shocking), and Ramis and company make sure we can't take a second of this seriously (when you see films like these, you really feel grateful when it doesn't succumb to sappiness).
If there's anything I object to about it, it's that there are times when it goes too over-the-top, most of all including bits of interuption he has in his life, and most of all, an admittingly humorous scene towards the end, but one that still felt too far-fetched, even for an otherwise light comedy (cough that one up to lazy jokemaking, I guess). But otherwise, "Analyze This" is a surprisingly original comedy: one that takes a totally off-the-wall premise, and not only makes it very funny and very clever, but also keeps working on it, exposing a shocking amount of intelligence and consistent wit, and never makes you feel like a moron for laughing at it. I know this will sound like a dramatic overstatement, but I really haven't left a flat-out comedy feeling this good since "There's Something About Mary" (though for the record, "Mary" was funnier and even more intelligent - in fact, you could say "Mary" was the really good version of "Analyze This," only more naughty jokes). So I guess, at least for now, "Analyze This" is the best film of 1999.

ESGF/CoG Administrator Guide Overview¶
The Earth System CoG Collaboration Environment has replaced the Web Front End as the public face to ESGF. This page describes the steps necessary to setup, configure, and maintain CoG for your ESGF node. It is intended to be used by existing ESGF Node administrators with root-level access.
Step 1a: Install CoG using the ESGF installer CoG is installed as part of a standard ESGF Index Node by running the ESGF installer. Currently, CoG is configured to run behind the Apache httpd server on the standard port SSL port 443 (redirection from port 80 will be configured soon). After the ESGF installer completes succesfully, check that you can access the node by typing the following URL in your favorite browser
Open URL: https//<hostname>/
Replace: <hostname> with your Node’s fully qualified domain name (note the “https” protocol).
This should redirect to https:////projects/testproject/
Step 1b: Upgrade CoG standalone¶
Alternatively, if you already have a working ESGF/CoG setup, you can upgrade CoG without running the full ESGF installer with the following procedure (as root, or prepend commands with sudo):
Stop the ESGF node: # /usr/local/bin/esg-node stop
But start Postgres: # /etc/init.d/postgresql start
Checkout the latest esg-cog script from GitHub (devel branch):
# cd /usr/local/bin
# wget 'https://github.com/ESGF/esgf-installer/blob/devel/cog/esg-cog'
Execute the script: # ./esg-cog
Stop Postgres: # /etc/init.d/postgresql stop
Restart the ESGF node: # /usr/local/bin/esg-node start
Step 2: Configure CoG¶
Once ESGF-COG is installed, the ESGF Node administrator must complete a sequence of one-time tasks to configure and customize the node.
These tasks can be completed at different times to progressively enhance the node functionality.
Please note that any configuration and content will be persisted across sub-sequent upgrades of the ESGF Node, but will be completely wiped out if the ESGF Node is re-installed from scratch (since CoG content is kept in the Postgres database, which will be erased by a total ESGF Node re-install). So, if you plan on later re-installing the whole Node from scratch, it is recommended to only follow steps 1-3 below to execute some basic post-installation testing. Proceed with the additional steps only when you believe that your Node installation is final, about to go into production, and you will only have to upgrade the Node, not re-install it.
Customize the Node Header and Footer
Customize Google Analytics
Setup the ESGF Node Federation
Configure Globus Downloads
Additionally, the following pages contain additional content related to understanding and operating an ESGF-CoG node:
CoG-to-ESGF User Accounts
Restore from backup
Step 3: Upgrade CoG¶
In general, CoG upgrades are best executed within a complete ESGF release, by runinnig the full ESGF installer. But there might be situations where an ESGF Node administrator might want to install a new CoG version right away - for example, because a security patch or a new piece of functionality must be installed as soon as possible. CoG can be upgraded standalone by leveraging the ESGF installation infrastructure, simply by editing and executing the esg-cog script (as root):
cd /usr/local/bin
edit esg-cog: set VERSION=...whatever is the CoG version you want to install...
execute esg-cog: ./esg-cog
restart the node: ./esg-node restart
IMPORTANT: please note that the esg-cog script requires that the ESGF Postgres database be running while it executes. So either leave the whole ESGF node running, upgrade CoG, and then restart the node; or shut down the node but start up the Postgres database alone before running the upgrade script.

Labeling CVS Paths
CVS will tag revisions with symbols, some of these symbols may refer to labels, whilst others are branch names. If labeling is disabled (default), then only symbols with history are converted to Perforce branches, the remaining symbols are ignored. However, if labels are enabled then the remaining symbols from the branch detection are converted to Perforce Labels.
-
To enable labeling of CVS symbols tags, set the
com.p4convert.cvs.labels
totrue
. -
In multiple CVS conversions there is the potential for namespace clashing if the label has been previously used. By default, the converter will use the CVS symbol as the name for the Perforce label. However, this can be formatted by setting the following option:
com.p4convert.cvs.labelFormat
. The parameter{symbol}
will be substituted by the CVS symbol name.For example:
com.p4convert.cvs.labels=true com.p4convert.cvs.labelFormat=import_{symbol}_label
Will import a CVS symbol called
REL1.0
as a Perforce labelimport_REL1.0_label
.


Thought at Work started in 2003. In six months, three ambitious design students built this conference from the ground up to create a place bridge the gap between students and professionals. It was a success, bringing together over 200 students from eleven design schools. The conference continued in 2004, but then took a break due to the graduation of the original team leaders.
In 2012, we decided to bring it back in full force, and it’s been going strong ever since, with over 400 attendees in 2013, an all-time high. We have expanded our content to include both industrial and interaction design, and we hope to continue growing even further. Thought at Work has always aimed to keep the content fresh and interesting to our generation, since students know what students want to learn.
In addition to our lectures and workshops, Thought at Work offers a variety of unique networking events every year. In 2012, we hosted a sketching & rendering competition between two of RIT’s talented visiting professors. In 2013, we had an afterparty at local restaurant Cure, and events at the Lovin’ Cup Café, right outside RIT. Keep an eye out for updates on what’s coming in 2014!

The Search API has a custom rate limit, separate from the rate limit governing the rest of the REST API. The GraphQL API also has a custom rate limit that is separate from and calculated differently than rate limits in the REST API.
For these reasons, the Rate Limit API response categorizes your rate limit.
Under resources
, you'll see four objects:
core
object provides your rate limit status for all
non-search-related resources in the REST API.
search
object provides your rate limit status for the
Search API.
graphql
object provides your rate limit status for the
GraphQL API.
integration_manifest
object provides your rate limit status
for the
GitHub App Manifest code conversion
endpoint.
For more information on the headers and values in the rate limit response, see "Rate limiting."
The rate
object (shown at the bottom of the response above) is
deprecated.
If you're writing new API client code or updating existing code, you
should use the core
object instead of the
rate
object. The core
object contains the same
information that is present in the rate
object.


Directly bind a local array to paper-autocomplete. The component internally will filter suggestions based on the component attribute settings.
LOCAL DATA BINDING
The component internally remaps the passed array to the template binding array (which will be an array of objects with a `text` and `value` properties). The passed array can be a simple array of strings.
Public properties, `textProperty` and `valueProperty`, can be declaratively set in the element attributes, allowing to bind an arbitrary object array to the component's source property.


Electrode pretty much spammed Thunder Wave, 27.5% crit rate electric STAB, and clicked Explosion when it was done. It will do the same thing in Rose Red/Iris Blue, albeit the speed is more cherished because it outspeeds Aerodactyl. Normal typing gives STAB to Explosion and Hyper beam, which lets it break some electric checks more effectively. However, Electrode still gets walled by the same old threats in golDon and Gengar, but Electrode is otherwise a threat to most Pokemon that do not resist normal.
- Thunderbolt
- Thunder Wave
- Hyper Beam
- Explosion
This is extremely straightforward. Use Thunderbolt and Hyper Beam to clean when the electric checks are weakened down, or eliminate an electric check yourself with Explosion. Thunder Wave can be used to paralyze opposing threats in a pinch.
Thunder can be used if the extra boost in power is desired, but the lack of accuracy is undesirable. Screech can make Hyper Beam more threatening against some electric checks, but it's hard to fit onto a set. Toxic can be used instead of Thunder Wave to enable Dream Eater teammates.
Rock/Ground types: The likes of Golem, Rhydon, and Onix are sturdy counters to Electrode's dual STAB.
Grass types: The likes of Exeggutor and Tangela are very bulky, forcing Electrode to explode if it wishes to get past them.
Status: Electrode's biggest niche is its blistering speed. Paralysis kills this and Electrode does not have the bulk to be a good sleep absorber.

Tel Aviv tourists undeterred by Gaza escalation
Many local residents prefer to remain home in face of rocket strikes but visitors to the metropolis are still eager to sample the wares at the city's famed Carmel Market, while the vendors lament the regulars who chose to stay away
by Asaf KamerThe ongoing wave of rocket fire from Gaza following the killing of an Islamic Jihad commander has seen many of Tel Aviv's residents preferring to stay home, but has failed to deter visitors to the city eager to take in the sights and sounds - and tastes - of the famed Carmel Market (even if some of the vendors are also absent).
Most of the people walking around were tourists, either unaware of the situation or just ignoring it and continuing with their vacation in Israel.
"I woke up at 9 am and went to the beach," says Manuela from Berlin, who didn't hear the sirens on Tuesday mornng.
"Only now did someone tell me that there were rockets fired at Tel Aviv," she says.
Dan from Sweden, who was visiting Israel with his family, heard the news but was not too worried.
"I saw the news in our hotel room, and I understood that something was wrong in Gaza. Suddenly, we heard sirens and were asked by reception to go down to the designated rocket shelters. I think we have nothing to fear," he says.
Dana, a tourist from Germany, says she feels very safe in Israel.
"I didn't even ring my parents. They have no idea what's going on, it's better for them," she says, adding that she knows the security situation in Israel can be precarious.
Roman, also from Germany. says that his lack of concern is down to the IDF's Iron Dome missile defense system.
"I'm not afraid because I know Iron Dome is the best, which is why I'm not anxious about anything hitting the ground," he says.
Sheldon, an American tourist and army veteran, strolls about with a video camera, apparently hoping to snap Iron Dome in action.
But he admits there is difficulty in photographing a flying missile. "It takes some luck," he says.
"There is no reason to be afraid, I went through worst things myself. I feel safe in Israel."
The vendors at the open-air market expressed concern over the economic damage the current escalation could cause and some even expressed anger at the Israelis who avoided visiting due to security concerns.
"Israelis are cowards," says one vendor who asked to remain anonymous.
"Because there are no designated bomb shelters here, they all ditch us and go to the mall instead where they can have fun and drink some nice coffee.
Hamas helps the malls, not the markets."

Lokesh Busts Paytm Batch Propaganda of YSRCP?
by Sridhar RaaviRajya Sabha MPs – Sujana Chowdary and CM Ramesh quit TDP and joined BJP after the elections. YSR Congress suspects that Chandrababu himself sent them to BJP to save his skin. And they are trying their level best to propagate that.
CM Ramesh’s son’s wedding is happening in Dubai today. A total of 15 flights have been booked for Dubai. Many political leaders were invited to the event. YSR Congress Media Social Media Wing has been spreading the news that Lokesh also attended the event.
They posted some pictures of Lokesh’s US Trip from 2015 and claiming them to be the photos of Dubai. Lokesh took to Twitter and lambasted the news as Fake. He termed the news as the had work of ‘Five Rupees Paytm Batch’.
He further ridiculed that the Paytm batch should demand more money per post since the Chief Minister is making crores with J-Tax.

The next time you hit a creature with a ranged weapon attack before the spell ends, this spell creates a rain of thorns that sprouts from your ranged w eapon or ammunition. In addition to the normal effect of the attack, the target of the attack and each creature within 5 feet of it must make a Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes 1dlO piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
At Higher Levels. If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d10 for each slot level above 1st (to a maximum of 6 d10).


is a media organization which posts talks online for free distribution, under the slogan "ideas worth spreading". TED was founded in February 1984 as a conference, which has been held annually since 1990.

Pliskova originally began working with the Spanish former World No.2 at the 2018 US Open, where she reached the quarterfinals before falling to Serena Williams, and promoted her to a full-time coaching role in February this year.
Despite a season in which Pliskova won a joint Tour-leading four titles, in Brisbane, Rome, Eastbourne and Zhengzhou, and raised her year-end ranking from World No.8 to her highest season finish at World No.2, the 27-year-old's Grand Slam breakthrough continued to prove elusive. A semifinal run at the Australian Open included a stunning quarterfinal fightback against Serena Williams in which Pliskova saved four match points and overturned a 1-5 final-set deficit, but a three-set loss to Naomi Osaka in the last four in Melbourne was followed by a third-round exit at Roland Garros to Petra Martic and fourth-round defeats at Wimbledon and the US Open at the hands of Karolina Muchova and Johanna Konta respectively.

Protest rocks INEC office in Kogi as PDP youth allege attempt to manipulate poll
by Mojeed AlabiThere is an ongoing protest by some youth in Dekina Local Government Area of Kogi State who are loyal to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) over alleged moves to manipulate election results.
The youth, who stormed the INEC secretariat in Dekina town in their hundreds, insisted that the individuals they saw crossing to their community from another local government through the river would not be allowed to enter the INEC office with their bags.
One of the protesters who spoke to PREMIUM TIMES, Abubakar Galadima, said they suspected that the alleged intruders were bringing doctored results from neighbouring Bassa Local Government Area of the state.
But one of the accused, who identified himself simply as Mr Adeleke, said they were collation officers for the 12 wards in the local government area.
Mr Adeleke, who said he was a lecturer at Federal University, Oyè Ekiti, said they were to be issued identity cards at the INEC office and so did not bring anyone to identify them.
It took the intervention of police officers to calm the enraged crowd.
The officers had to offload the contents of the bags carried by each of the accused before they reluctantly dispersed.

System/161 Virtual Hardware
System/161 is a machine simulator. The virtual machine it simulates is
a server-class computer, with a serial console, multiple CPUS,
multiple disks, and one or more network interfaces. The formal
processor clock speed is 25 MHz, the speed of a high-end server circa
about 1990. This speed is a tradeoff between genuine processor speeds
and the speed the simulator code can manage in real time, which is
markedly lower.
The virtual machine is constructed in as simple a fashion as is
reasonably possible while still maintaining most of the feel of real
hardware. (The part of dealing with real hardware you miss out on is
the part where the interfaces are screwy and the devices don't work
half the time.)
The machine has 32 slots in a passive backplane bus called LAMEbus.
One slot contains the system board with the LAMEbus bus controller.
This board may contain up to 32 CPUs, each of which may potentially
contain multiple cores.
Each additional slot may be configured with any of several hardware
devices. This configuration is established using a config file, named
by default sys161.conf. Future versions of System/161 may
provide a user interface for device configuration and/or allow devices
to be inserted and removed on the fly ("hotplugged"), but this is not
currently supported.
Programming information for LAMEbus
The system board contains up to 32 simulated 32-bit MIPS
microprocessors.
The MIPS is the simplest "real" 32-bit processor for which development
tools are readily available; furthermore, the MIPS architecture is
already widely used for teaching in various contexts. This makes it a
natural choice.
Programming information for the System/161 MIPS processor
Config File Syntax
By default the config file is named sys161.conf and read from
the current directory. An alternate file can be used by specifying the
-c option. The syntax is line-oriented, with #
comments. Each line specifies the contents of a slot, which may be
between 0 and 31, and includes optional configuration arguments for
the device to be inserted. The format of a configuration line is as
follows:
slot-number device-name [args...]
The system board (bus controller) must always be placed in slot 31.
Devices
The devices available, and the arguments they support, are:
| |
| | | |
| busctl |
Alias for oldmainboard. |
| |
| disk |
Basic disk device |
| |
rpm=cycles |
Specify rotation speed. Must be multiple of 60. Default is 3600. |
| sectors=sectors |
Specify number of 512-byte sectors on disk. Provided for
compatibility with old configurations; ordinarily the size of the disk
image is used. |
| size=size-spec |
Specify size of disk. Must be an integral number of 512-byte
sectors; supports the same suffixes as disk161. Provided for
compatibility with old configurations; ordinarily the size of the disk
image is used. |
| file=filename |
Filename to use for disk storage. Required. |
| paranoid |
If set, call fsync() on every disk write to hopefully ensure data
is not lost if the host system crashes. Slow and not recommended for
normal operation. |

Useful for swap disks. |
| Programming information |
| |
| emufs |
Emulator pass-through filesystem |

Directory to use as root of emufs filesystem. Default is
System/161's current directory. The implementation translates symbolic
links found in the host filesystem to regular files or directories,
and no attempt is made to prevent accesses from escaping outside the
named subtree. This allows the emufs tree to be populated with
symbolic links that point elsewhere. |

Timing
System/161 maintains timings internally at a granularity of a single
clock cycle; thus it can be used for very accurate profiling, to the
extent that its execution time model is realistic.
The timings in System/161 have the following known limitations:
- System/161 does not implement a cache simulator. All accesses are
assumed to be satisfiable in one cycle from main memory. This is
not completely crazy for a 25MHz cycle time; however, as cache
effects are very important for performance today, it is
displeasing. Future releases of System/161 may include more cache
modeling.
- All instructions execute in one cycle. This is the intent of the
MIPS architecture for most ordinary integer instructions;
however, it should not be true for e.g. multiplies and divides.
- The disk timing model is weird and broken. Sometime it should be
replaced with either a real one or at least a better one.
- The serial console was originally supposed to be 9600 bps; then
it got cranked up to 19200 bps, and then a substantial fudge
factor got inserted to make it go faster. At one time on one
(old and slow) machine this made the output scroll at a speed
comparable to a real 19200 bps connection. It hasn't been retuned
since. This doesn't matter that much, but it's not actually the
right speed for a serial console.
There is also the issue that System/161 cannot actually execute 25
million instructions a second, even on a fast machine. Therefore, on
CPU-intensive tasks, it falls behind. In order to maintain the
illusion that it continues to run at 25MHz, it distinguishes virtual
time (within the simulation) from wall time (outside the simulation).
All internal timings are calculated in virtual time.
Wall time is of interest, however, because the interactive
behavior of the system occurs in wall time. For this reason,
System/161 attempts to sync itself to wall time. For I/O-intensive
tasks its interactive behavior is time-correct; for CPU-intensive
tasks it is very slow. In the transition from one to the other some
odd artifacts can occur; these can be made odder yet by scheduling
interactions with the host OS if running on a busy system. These are
most noticeable on the system console, but can also occur if one is
using the virtual network.
For this reason, it's important to be cautious about evaluating
software performance by eyeball; appearances can be quite
misleading. Use the internal timers. If there's something you need to
do that the internal timers can't support, please file a bug report.
Currently, when multiple CPUs are configured, they execute in lockstep
in a single host-level thread, and the timing model is unchanged. It
is likely in the future that it will become possible to run each
virtual CPU on its own host-level thread; this will add major
complications to the timing model, the full ramifications of which are
not yet completely clear.

- What does it mean to display inline vs using inline block?
Both options allow the elements to be next to each other on the same line. Inline block behaves like a block element, where width and length can be set, whereas with inline, those two gets ignored.
- To use these options, in the css file set the element display to either inline or inline-block. Example: display: inline; or display:inline-block;


Radradra reportedly prepared to sacrifice up to $2 million in order to return to the NRL
by Shanil SinghA homesick Semi Radradra is reportedly prepared to sacrifice up to $2 million playing rugby union in order to return to the NRL.
The Daily Telegraph reports that the Fijian winger has told close friends he wants to return to NRL with South Sydney.
If reports were to be believed, the South Sydney Rabbitohs could become a likely destination following the retirement of Sam Burgess due to a recurring shoulder injury.
This however will depend on whether they will receive salary cap dispensation for the English star’s contract which was worth around $1 million per season.
Radradra has recently been linked with a move to the Rabbitohs while Canterbury expressed interest before he represented Fiji in the Rugby World Cup.
According to the Telegraph, a third party is acting between Radradra and NRL clubs with the former Kangaroos flyer happy to field offers around $500,000 per season.

To get started, enter the name of a gene and select the server that provides it. A genomic context will be made from the gene and the genes that flank it, then similar contexts will be found and aligned.
Documentation describing GCV features and use cases in detail are available online.
Learn how to setup your own GCV data services and configure the user interface.
The Genome Context Viewer is a micro-synteny viewer that can load data from multiple sources simultaneously, enabling the comparative analysis of data curated by independent data providers. Though there are other visualizations, such as dot plots and macro-synteny blocks, they're intended to supplement the micro-synteny visualization from which their content is derived.
The micro-synteny visualization shows segments of chromosomes as ordered sequences of genes. Each segment, or track, is drawn as "beads-on-a-string", where each triangular bead represents a gene, the orientation of which conveys the strand the gene occurs on and the color corresponds to the gene's functional annotation. The thickness of the string, or line, between genes represents the physical distance between them.
Micro-synteny search is the primary function of the Genome Context Viewer. Given one or more query genes, a micro-synteny query track is constructed for each gene from the genes, or neighbors, that flank it on its chromosome. The Genome Context Viewer then searches one or more databases for tracks that have similar functional annotation content.
Track alignment based on the functional annotations of the track genes is used to emphasize the preservation and variation of structure among micro-synteny tracks. Query tracks are multiple aligned and search result tracks are pairwise aligned to the consensus of the multiple alignment. Inversions and tandem duplications are drawn on separate lines to emphasize the variation of structure.
Pairwise gene-loci dot plots between any track and the query tracks can be loaded on-demand to further elucidate structure.
Local plots depict only the genes from the micro-synteny tracks being compared.
Global plots depict the genes from the micro-tracks being compared in addition to all the gene's from the selected track's chromosome that have a functional annotation present in the query track being plotted against.
Macro-synteny visualizations are used to put micro-synteny tracks into context by displaying chromosome-scale pairwise synteny blocks for the chromosomes of the query tracks. These blocks are computed on-demand by one or more databases using an MCScanX style algorithm and are colored by genus and species.
Reference blocks can be computed using the chromosome of any of the query tracks as a reference. The genomic interval corresponding to the chromosome's query track is highlighted, putting the micro-synteny structures into the context of the macro-synteny structures.
Circos blocks can be computed between the chromosomes of the query tracks. As with the reference blocks, the genomic intervals corresponding to the query tracks are highlighted. Additionally, the all-pairs comparison can reveal structures that are preserved among all or a subsets of the query track chromosomes.

'A humbling experience': Lewis Hamilton seals sixth Formula 1 world title – video
by F1
Lewis Hamilton wrote his name into the pantheon of Britain's all-time sporting greats by winning his sixth Formula One world championship in Austin, Texas.
The 34-year-old moved ahead of Juan Manuel Fangio and within striking range of Michael Schumacher's record collection of seven after he finished second in the United States Grand Prix. "I really like number six, it sounds good. But it hasn't sunk in just yet. I feel fresh. I feel like I'm ready for another race."


NEWS.md
clean_variable_spelling()
and clean_spelling()
have been migrated over to the {matchmaker} package and arguments from the aformentioned functions are passed to the {matchmaker} functions. Tests and documentation have been updated to reflect this.clean_variable_spelling()
and clean_spelling()
gain the option to specify which columns contain the keys (from
) and values (to
). These default to 1 and 2, respectively, which ensure that backwards compatibility is retained. (this fixes #99).linelist_example()
is a new function that serves as an alias for system.file("extdata", thing, package = "linelist")
, which is much easier for new R users to understand.top_values()
no longer throws a spurious warning when the levels in the subset data are identical to the levels in the full data (#96)top_values()
gains a new subset
argument that allows the user to retain the top levels of a subset of a vector. This is particularly useful for retrospective analysis based on current trends (fixes #92 via #94 and #95,
@thibautjombart)top_values()
gains the explicit ties.method parameter, which defaults to “first” to fix issue #88 (thanks to @cwhittaker1000 for spotting the issue and providing a detailed explanation).top_values()
issues a warning if one of the top values had a tied value that was not included.top_values()
issues a warning if the user uses a ties.method that is not guaranteed to return exactly n top values.clean_spelling()
gains the anchor_regex
argument, which will wrap all regex keyword entries in “^” and “$” before processing.The linelist class and all associated epivars/dictionary functions have been removed as out of scope of this package. Without any validation, these functions were no more than a fancy wrapper to dplyr::rename()
, thus they are being removed after fda9e18b02f5853cd311ddcc513c427244b21dd7. If the linelist class is ressurrected, (e.g. to implement a hxl validator package), it can be taken from that commit. This is related to #29
clean_spelling()
now gains the .regex
keyword that allows the user to supply perl-style regular expressions to change words that may have similar spelling.
guess_dates()
now processes at double the speed of the previous version.guess_dates()
will now properly constrain date vectors to the start and end dates.guess_dates()
correctly parses dates represented as integers from excel (#73).print.data_comparison()
now sets diff_only = TRUE
by default (#71)compare_data()
gains the option columns
, which allows users to choose which columns they want to compare. Defaults to TRUE
, which compares all columns (#58).guess_dates()
can now handle dates that were imported from Excel as integers (#66).guess_dates()
gains the argument “modern_excel” to indicate how integer dates should be formatted.getOption("linelist_guess_orders")
replaces the explicit list of orders in guess_dates()
for easier access.guess_dates()
no longer throws an error if passed a date class object (#65).guess_dates()
has been better documented to reflect the above changes (#64).clean_spelling()
gains a new keyword: .na
(or should I say “valueword”). When this keyword is in the values (second) column of the wordlist, the keys will be replaced with a missing (<NA>
) value. This is useful for contrasting between presence of an absence and an absence of a presence with the .missing
keyword. See #55 and #57 for detailsprint.data_comparison()
gains the logical arguments common_values
and diff_only
to control the length of print output (See #61).compare_data()
now correctly accounts for different values in variables. Thanks to @ffinger for finding the bug (#56).compare_data()
now returns list of variable classes instead of TRUE if the classes match. (See #53 for details).clean_variable_spelling()
will now run global variables before processing named variables instead of in tandem. This allows the user to define misspellings in the .global
variable. See https://github.com/reconhub/linelist/issues/51 for details.clean_spelling()
will no longer throw a warning if there is no value for .default to replace.clean_variable_spelling()
, clean_variables()

can once again parse date formats that are file names: example_format_2019-02-19.xlsx
. (See #43 for details)clean_spelling()
gains a quiet
argument to suppress warnings.clean_variable_spelling()
will no longer error if there are variable specifications that don’t exist in the data. It will also suppress all warnings from clean_spelling()
. (see #41 for details)clean_spelling()
will check the spelling of a vector against a wordlistclean_variable_spelling()

Reproducible data ingestion in practice
How does a reproducible data ingestion look like in practice?
If your analytical work has used a certain type of data at least two times in the past, it is likely that the data will be needed again. This is a good time to make the data ingestion automatic and reproducible. We demonstrate a simple data ingestion from Eurostat. Daniel is part of the rOpenGov collective that maintains the eurostat package for reproducible access to the European statistical agencies data warehouse.
library(eurostat)
nuts3_population_raw <- get_eurostat ("demo_r_pjangrp3")
nuts3_population_metadata <- get_eurostat_toc() %>%
filter ( code == "demo_r_pjangrp3" ) %>%
distinct_all ()
last_update <- nuts3_population_metadata$`last update of data`
first_data <- nuts3_population_metadata$`data start`
The metadata entries to this statistics suggest that the latest data is from Thursday 14 May, 2020, so it is high time to refresh your data tables and update your charts. Sadly, the metadata suggest that on this occasion the table went through structural changes, so you may get a different spreadsheet table when you downloaded compared to the last occasion. You may think that this is another reason to automate the ingestion into a well-defined, tidy table format.
| title | code | last update of data | last table structure change | data start | data end |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Population on 1 January by age group, sex and NUTS 3 region | demo_r_pjangrp3 | 14.05.2020 | 14.05.2020 | 2014 | 2019 |
Looking at the head of this raw data, you realize that this is not table, but a little database! It contains population divisions by sex and age groups. However, your indicator is the total population of each NUTS3
regions, so let’s filter out only the total population for both sexes.
| sex | unit | age | geo | time | values |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| T | NR | Y_LT5 | NO07 | 2018-01-01 | 25108 |
| M | NR | Y10-14 | DED44 | 2014-01-01 | 4620 |
| F | NR | Y45-49 | FRB | 2014-01-01 | 88590 |
Looking at the head of this raw data, you realize that this is not table, but a little database! It contains population divisions by sex and age groups. However, your indicator is the total population of each NUTS3
regions, so let’s filter out only the total population for both sexes.
nuts3_population <- nuts3_population_raw %>%
filter ( sex == "T", # for both sexes
age == "TOTAL") %>% # for all age groups
mutate ( year = as.integer(substr(as.character(time), 1,4)),
indicator = paste0("population_sex-", sex, "_unit-", unit,
"_age-", age)) %>%
select ( -all_of(c("sex", "unit", "age")))
The following table is already tidy — each observation corresponds with a small region of Europe. The filtering information as metadata is included in the indicator’s name.
| geo | time | values | year | indicator |
|---|---|---|---|---|

The population size is rather homogeneous — no wonder, the small regions of Europe are exactly defined to be roughly of equal size and easily comparable.
You are wondering how you could match this data with your own records, or data acquired from Google about number of restaurants or searchers for concerts?

There is no easy solution for this problem. Within the EU in the last 20 years there were several thousand internal boundary changes — states, provinces, regions are rather free to change their internal administration boundaries. Regions are constantly changing their names or their spelling, too. Sometimes they use a standard English translation of their region, sometimes only the national language variants. In Greece or Bulgaria they do not even use the Latin alphabet!
Daniel and Istvan created and released an open-source code library, regions to deal with similar issues. It allows the changes between boundary definition between 1999-2021, or the connection of the globally used geographical typology adopted by Google with Eurostat’s EU-only definitions.
For example, you can already foresee that there are future changes (to be implemented from the year 2021) that will affect two of these regions.
set.seed(21)
validate_for_2021 <- nuts3_population %>%
select ( -all_of(c("time", "indicator")) ) %>%
sample_n(8) %>%
regions::validate_nuts_regions(., nuts_year = 2021 )
| geo | values | year | typology | valid_2021 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DE248 | 115681 | 2018 | nuts_level_3 | TRUE |
| BG422 | 228141 | 2019 | nuts_level_3 | TRUE |
| UKN13 | 139774 | 2014 | NA | FALSE |

There is trouble ahead, but we have a table that is tidy and works for the time being. Let’s save it and document it.
eurostat::get_bibentry("demo_r_pjangrp3")

What is reproducibility in this case?
Replicability means that somebody else in your team can get exactly the same data as in this post.
- Recording exactly what have your analysts downloaded, including source, date, filtering settings
Reproducibility means that not only your team, but an external auditor or a peer reviewer can easily validate that your data is sound. All our solutions are opens source, and use the most popular statistical programming language, R. Anybody with a basic knowledge of R, or probably even SQL (we use an extension of R that uses SQL-like syntax) can read if everything goes allright. Your team can even modify the code.
- Creating a documentation that you updates your reports data citations
Confirmability means that somebody who is not using . All our solutions are opens source, and use the most popular statistical programming language, R. R is supported by Microsofts BI products, SPSS and other statistical software, too. We are not a software company, there is no vendor lock-in, and our work can be confirmed with other statistical software.
- Data acquired via our data gathering apps is automatically documented, follows tidy formats and valid abbreviations, and can be confirmed in a wide range of statistical and spreadsheet applications, including SPSS, Excel, OpenOffice, Google Spreadsheets.
- Bringing the data to a tidy format which is easy to join with other data in a spreadsheet application, or stored in a relational database.
- Validating the data structure, in this case, with special attention to regional boundaries and regional names.
Auditability means that external auditors can validate that the data your team uses from our app is correct.
- We are following methodological guidelines and definitions set by international bodies such as Eurostat’s ESSNet statistical network or IFRS.
- Our critical software code is not only open source, but goes through various levels of statistical peer-review. We are sending for scientific validation and peer-review our methodology, too.
- Being open source allows us to make any corrections, updates, should any problem or standard change affect the data.
