A question that often arises is, what is the benefit of programming to an interface? This blog post will attempt to explain why. It is quite common for people to have heard of the term but do not really understand the significance of it.
It is important to understand that the interface word used here is actually the broader concept of what an interface is, it does not mean the Java Interface. This post however aims to use Java as an example. The main objective of programming to an interface would be to loosen coupling.
The most commonly used example is as follows. Notice that in this example, the LHS (Left hand side), is using List while the RHS (Right hand side) is specifying it to be ArrayList. Here, I am trying to create a List of Strings.
List<String> usingList = new ArrayList<>();
Declaration 1. The first method using List on the LHS.
ArrayList<String> usingArrayList = new ArrayList<>();
Declaration 2. The first method using ArrayList on the LHS.
Notice that in declaration 2, the LHS is using ArrayList instead of the List. One of the biggest difference is that by the first declaration using List on the LHS. By using this way (Declaration 1), you are ensuring that you only call methods defined by the List instead of ArrayList specific methods. There are a few ArrayList specific methods like trimToSize and ensureCapacity. Generally declaration 2 should be avoided.
// trimToSize method cannot be resolved
usingList.trimtoSize();
// trimToSize method can be resolved
usingArrayList.trimToSize();
// ensureCapacity method cannot be resolved
usingList.ensureCapacity();
// ensureCapacity can be resolved
usingArrayList.ensureCapacity();
Snippet 1. An example when methods like trimToSize and ensureCapacity could not resolved..
To be brief, declaration 1 using List will allow the user to only use methods defined in the List interface, declaration 2 will allow users to use methods specific to the ArrayList class which includes trimToSize and ensureCapacity. It might not be very obvious when dealing with a class like the ArrayList but it is more evident if the class is a LinkedList instead. There is a big difference in the underlying implementation of the ArrayList and the LinkedList. An ArrayList is essentially an array where else a LinkedList is implemented as a double linked list.
The main idea here is that by using Declaration 1, it will allow developers to easily change the specific data structure used without causing massive changes in the code base if at a later stage you decided to change the ArrayList to a LinkedList instead. In fact, perhaps using a TreeList.
// Using a List on the LHS
List<String> usingList = new ArrayList<>();
// The process of using a LinkedList instead of an ArrayList can easily be done.
List<String> usingList = new LinkedList<>();
// In fact, you can just use the TreeList library from the ApacheCommons
List<String> usingList = new TreeList<>();
Snippet 2. The RHS can be changed to use a LinkedList or TreeList.
When using List it is important to decide which implementation of List to use. Each implementation like ArrayList or LinkedList are suited for different use cases.
It is also important to understand the difference in the implementation of the ArrayList, LinkedList and TreeList as mentioned earlier. If you are interested in the internal workings, they can be found by referring to the OpenJDK implementation of the ArrayList located here and the LinkedList which can be found here.
public class ArrayList<E>
extends AbstractList<E>
implements List<E>, RandomAccess, Cloneable, java.io.Serializable
{
private static final long serialVersionUID =<PHONE_NUMBER>122892189L;
private static final int DEFAULT_CAPACITY = 10;
// Notice that the underlying implementation of the ArrayList uses an Object[] //which is essentially a fixed sized array.
private static final Object[] EMPTY_ELEMENTDATA = {};
private static final Object[] DEFAULTCAPACITY_EMPTY_ELEMENTDATA = {};
//....omitted
}
Snippet 3. Open JDK12 implementation of the ArrayList.
public class LinkedList<E>
extends AbstractSequentialList<E>
implements List<E>, Deque<E>, Cloneable, java.io.Serializable
{
transient int size = 0;
// Notice that it is using a Node here
transient Node<E> first;
transient Node<E> last;
//...omitted
private static class Node<E> {
E item;
Node<E> next;
Node<E> prev;
Node(Node<E> prev, E element, Node<E> next) {
this.item = element;
this.next = next;
this.prev = prev;
}
}
//...omitted
}
Snippet 4. Open JDK12 implementation of the LinkedList.
Based on the two snippets, it can be seen that the underlying implementation of both of the ArrayList and LinkedList are different, however they still have implementations of all methods that exist within the List interface itself. The ArrayList uses a fixed sized array as its implementation while the LinkedList uses a node that has a next and previous.
When following the notion of programming to an interface there is still a need to determine the correct implementation to use as ArrayList and LinkedList have different run time complexity when adding and removing elements.

If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately. Call by telephone first, if you can and follow the directions of your local health authority.
People with COVID-19 can have a wide range of symptoms, ranging from mild to severe illness. Symptoms of COVID-19 include fever or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, and diarrhea. Not everyone with COVID-19 will have all symptoms and fever may or may not be present. Symptoms typically appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus.
Picnics: Pack food from home. Or pick up takeout from your favorite restaurant or food truck. In some places, you might be able to get your food delivered to you. Take it to enjoy at your favorite public park, or eat out on your patio or deck.
Outdoor farmers markets: Wear a mask and maintain a social distance of at least 6 feet (2 meters) from others.
Drive-in movies: The COVID-19 pandemic has launched a drive-in movie theater comeback in the U.S. It's something many people can enjoy together with plenty of physical distance.
Quarantine refers to the practice of separating individuals who have had close contact with someone with COVID-19 to determine whether they develop symptoms or test positive for the disease. Quarantine also reduce the risk of transmission if an individual is later found to have COVID-19. Quarantine for COVID-19 should last for a period of 14 days after the exposure has ended. Ideally, each quarantined individual should be quarantined in a single cell with solid walls and a solid door that closes.

Large gatherings: Being in large gatherings or crowds of people where it's difficult to stay spaced at least 6 feet (2 meters) apart poses the highest risk. The larger the group and the longer people are together in these situations, the higher the risk. Weddings, festivals and parades are examples.
Youth camp activities: Camps are generally high risk because campers come from different locations and spend a lot of time together indoors, in close contact.
Camps can pose less risk if campers are from the same area, don't share objects, wear masks and spend time outdoors with at least 6 feet (2 meters) between them.
Playgrounds: The many frequently touched surfaces of playground equipment make it easier to spread the virus that causes COVID-19. However, in many areas, parks and playgrounds are open. Children who use playground equipment should maintain distance from others, avoid touching their faces and wash their hands afterward to help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.


CSS text-transform
This CSS property allows us to change the case of the text. It is used to control the text capitalization. This CSS property can be used to make the appearance of text in all-lowercase or all-uppercase or can convert the first character of each word to uppercase.
Syntax
text-transform: capitalize| uppercase | lowercase | none | initial | inherit;
Let's discuss its property values along with an example.
capitalize
It transforms the first character of each word to uppercase. It will not capitalize the first letter after the number. It only affects the first letters of the words instead of changing the rest of the letters in the word.
If we apply the capitalize property on a word that already has capital letters, then the letters of that word will not switch to lowercase.
The illustration of this property is given below.
Syntax
Output:
CSS text-transform property
text-transform: capitalize
hello world
WELCOME to the Css Tutorials
uppercase
As its name implies, it transforms all characters of the word into uppercase.
Syntax
text-transform: uppercase;
Example
Output:
CSS text-transform property
text-transform: uppercase
hello world
WELCOME to the CSS tutorials
lowercase
It transforms all characters of the word into lowercase.
Syntax
text-transform: lowercase;
Example
Output:
CSS text-transform property
text-transform: uppercase
hello world
WELCOME to the CSS tutorials
none
It is the default value that has no capitalization. It renders the text as it is.
Syntax
text-transform: none;
Example
Output:
CSS text-transform property

Experiment with plt5.m
|
|
|
The easiest way to start learning about plt is to
start the sample script plt5.m. Just type plt5 at the command prompt. This
simple script plots 5 traces. Note that he third trace (Line 3) is plotted on
the right hand axis. Experiment by trying the following:
- Click on all the objects in the plt window including the
trace IDs.
- Try that again with the right mouse button (which usually does something
different).
- Click and drag on the x and y axes tick labels (again - try both left and right
buttons)
- Left or right click and drag in the plot area. (On and off the traces do
different things).
- Hold down both mouse buttons in the plot area and drag (creates an
expansion box).
Expand on what you have learned playing with plt5 by:
- Using plt with some data you are currently working with. Type
plt(x,y) just as you would with Matlab's plot
routine.
- Use the plt workspace plotter by
typing plt with no arguments. Then you can
interactively select the variables you wish to plot.
- Run the other
programming examples.
(demoplt.m sequences thru all the examples.)
- Explore the topics in "Using the plt window" from the plt help
home page.

The column scaling extension scales column widths so they take up all the available horizontal space.
Note: The columns are rescaled whenever the grid's layout is recalculated. By default this never happens, except when extensions trigger a relayout. If you embed a grid into a resizable container you need some form of resize detection to keep rescaling columns as the grid is resized.

User testing (1)
- Wombwell GP - 29th Nov - Practice Manager / Nurse / Admin - 90mins
Key Findings (3)
- History prototype, clear the sample taker doesn't need to see as much as CSAS, the nurse only uses the history on OE in special circumstances (such as the patient moving to the practice.) Mainly just logs in for the HMR101 (which they mentioned would be good digitised) and if they do want to see the history they only wants a brief snapshot of the last test and patient demographics.
- At the moment the results history on OE is coded e.g 2 means negative they would rather it just said negative so they didn’t have to rely on remembering.
- They weren’t keen on having the journey at the top of the page but said it might be useful sometimes so maybe under a tab.
Design Challenges (2)
- How do we make it clears what the codes means
- How do we make it so that the information is clearer that is most relevant

Basic interface for SAX (Simple API for XML) parsers

The parser interfaces
|
Basic interface for SAX (Simple API for XML) parsers. All SAX parsers must implement this basic interface: it allows applications to register handlers for different types of events and to initiate a parse from a URI, or a character stream. All SAX parsers must also implement a zero-argument constructor (though other constructors are also allowed). SAX parsers are reusable but not re-entrant: the application may reuse a parser object (possibly with a different input source) once the first parse has completed successfully, but it may not invoke the parse() methods recursively within a parse.

Imagine that you are a student, sitting at home, studying for your next exam. How do you prepare? One might utilize flashcards, a popular method of memorizing simple facts and definitions. In addition to their simplicity, flashcards have also been shown to be quite effective, with elaborate spaced repetition techniques to ensure that students get the most out of their time.
In recent years, flashcard systems have been modernized on the web and on mobile phones, but they are more or less the same as they’ve always been. Read a card, flip it over, rinse and repeat.
What if there was a different way? Specifically, what if we can leverage what we know about modern artificial intelligence and natural language processing, and create a chatbot for factual knowledge that is more engaging and just as effective as traditional flashcard methods? That’s the idea behind QuizBot, a recent research project at Stanford.
A New Way to Learn Factual Knowledge
A chatbot is a computer program designed to communicate with humans. They are traditionally built as state machines, and are becoming increasingly more powerful with the recent advances in deep NLP. They are common in many domains and have become pervasive in the era of digital personal assistants. However, they are still not typically found in the field of education.
A Chatbot for Factual Knowledge
QuizBot is a chatbot for helping students learn factual knowledge. It covers a variety of topics and utilizes an interactive chat interface while leveraging modern artificial intelligence techniques (e.g., by providing supervised NLP-powered targeted feedback and implementing DASH1, an adaptive algorithm for question sequencing – see Section 3.3 in our paper). To make QuizBot feel more human, the chatbot is personified as an animated penguin named Frosty (see Figure 1).
The primary method of interacting with QuizBot is to have Frosty “quiz” the user. Frosty begins by asking a factual question, and the user responds by typing their answers using natural language. QuizBot then evaluates the user input against the correct answer (via the Smooth Inverse Frequency algorithm2 – see Section 3.2 in our paper) and responds accordingly. In addition, the user can also ask for hints if they get stuck or explanations to further their understanding.
QuizBot’s design follows closely on what one might expect from a human tutor, with conversational elements taken from typical human interactions. This includes branching dialog options, positive reinforcement feedback, as well as frequent use of casual language and emojis (see Figure 2). In doing so, QuizBot begins to feel more like a person and less like a computer program.
Studies on Effectiveness and Engagement
When studying educational systems for learning, we often look at two metrics: effectiveness and engagement. They go hand in hand, and a successful system is usually good at both. These metrics are broadly defined as follows.
- Effectiveness: how good the system is at helping the user recognize and recall knowledge.
- Engagement: how successful the system is at keeping the attention of the user.
You might imagine that flashcards are highly effective since years of research have been dedicated to improving that aspect alone. But they’re probably not all that engaging, especially given the short attention spans of students. We wanted to know if QuizBot can make factual knowledge learning not only effective but also engaging.
Study Procedure
To put this question to the test, QuizBot was evaluated against a carefully designed flashcard application that mimics many of the same techniques used in QuizBot (see Figure 3). We then performed two within-subject user studies, both sharing the same procedure below.
In the first study, each question was practiced by every user exactly twice. Participants for this study were 40 university students from 11 different universities, with each participant using both QuizBot and the flashcard app over the course of the study. In the second study, users were asked to use both apps for 5 days of their own volition. Participants for this second study were 36 university students from 8 different universities.
To measure knowledge gain, we defined the following two metrics.
- Recall accuracy: percentage of questions correctly answered on the fill-in-the-blank post-test.
- Recognition accuracy: percentage of questions correctly answered on the multiple choice post-test.
Study Results
In the first study, students who studied with QuizBot were able to recognize and recall over 20% more correct answers (or 32% relative increase in recognition and 46% relative increase in recall) than students who studied using the flashcard app. These differences were statistically significant and demonstrate that chatbots can be even more effective than flashcards.
Furthermore, learning improvement persisted over time. Even after two months, students who used QuizBot were still able to recall more answers correctly than students with flashcards!
In the second study, even when students were allowed to use each app voluntarily, those who studied with QuizBot still recalled over 12% more correct answers (or 31% relative increase) and recognized a similar amount of correct answers as those who studied with the flashcard app. Again, this was a statistically significant difference.
The results from the second study also reveal that students on average spent over 2.6x more time with Quizbot than with the flashcard app, noting the increased level of interactivity and feedback from QuizBot, as well as the friendly nature of Frosty, as key factors. This indicates that chatbots can be far more engaging than traditional methods, especially in the context of casual learning.
Teaching a New Generation of Students
As artificial intelligence continues to play a bigger role in our lives, so will interest increase in its uses in the field of education. QuizBot demonstrates that chatbots not only have a place in the future of education, but they also have the potential to surpass the efficacy of traditional methods while boosting engagement in learning.
QuizBot is part of a larger AI + Education research project called Smart Primer led by Professor Emma Brunskill and Professor James Landay. The project, inspired by Neal Stephenson’s novel, “The Diamond Age,” is a step towards an adaptive, intelligent tutoring system that leverages compelling narratives, intelligent tutoring chatbots, real-world activities, and a child’s physical and educational context. QuizBot is but one of many ways the future of education can be advanced using artificial intelligence.
To learn more about QuizBot, we recommend reading our CHI paper and taking a look at Stanford’s press release on the project. Information about Smart Primer can be found on the Smart Primer website.

Mum 'disgusted' as Hermes Christmas presents arrive 'opened and in different packaging'
Kerryann Mcildoon, of Hull, East Yorkshire said the packages sent by her son arrived in a box with a label on for a "shower greyhound coat" and not in the Royal Mail box it had been sent in
by Sophie Kitching, Brendan McFaddenA mum is "disgusted" after claiming Christmas presents sent by her son via Hermes were already "open" when they arrived - and in different packaging to what they had been been sent in.
Kerryann Mcildoon, of Hull East Yorkshire, said the package sent by her son Daryl, who lives in Luton, Bedfordshire was not delivered on Tuesday as planned.
When he contacted Hermes, he was told the label was damaged so it was not delivered, and it was instead going to going to arrive on Thursday.
When the package arrived, Mrs Mcildoon claims she was devastated to find the opened presents and said they arrived in a box with a label on for a "shower greyhound coat" and not in the Royal Mail box it had been sent in, Hull Live reports.
She said: "I'm absolutely disgusted.
"He sent me my Christmas presents through Hermes, the couriers. He phones me on Tuesday and said you should receive the parcel between 10am and 2pm.
"He [my son] said did you get the parcel? I said, no I didn't get the parcel.
"[he was told] The label was damaged on the box so they couldn't deliver it.
"My son phoned on Thursday morning and said your parcel is coming today.
"The box wasn't properly sealed and the presents have been opened."
Ms Mcildoon says the box they were sent in had a label on for a "shower greyhound coat".
"It's not even a proper box," she said. "There was one strip of Sellotape on the top.
"My son is disgusted. The box has been opened and the presents were open.

Target assigns every customer a id number and other details that become a bucket that stores a history of everything the customer has bought and any demographic information. Using that, it looks up and analyses at historical buying data for all the ladies who had signed up for Target baby registries in the past. It recognizes useful patterns like buying baby unscented lotions, supplements lie calcium, magnesium, zinc and assigns pregnancy score and thus predicts if someone is pregnant.
Direct marketers try to predict by behavior profiling like tracking an individual's purchases through shopping cards can forecast an individual's future purchases. Relationship marketing is to track the customers over time and adjust to their changing needs. This is different from direct marketing in the sense that this tracks the customer through the whole process of buying and builds a profile to make suggestions or otherwise and not just keeping track of final purchases.
Mass marketing is general advertising to a wide non-segmented group of consumers, such as TV, Radio. The advertiser uses one message for the entire audience, hoping it is general enough to appeal to a lot of them. In the past, products were standardized and the communication costs made mass marketing desirable. But in recent times due to lots of competition and supply, technology advancement enabling larger audience reach. Customers are increasing convenience shopping rather than price driven and hence the need for better services and customer engagement is necessary for increasing customer base through relationship management.
In our business, we can track customer purchases and predict what the customer more often purchases and provide targeted offers and discounts. Also, we will be making suggestions to customers on healthy diets and alternatives based on his trend of purchase.

What We Do
Random Acts inspires many amazing things around the world every day — from small acts of kindness, such as inspiring someone to buy a stranger a cup of coffee, to much bigger acts of kindness like building a school in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua.
All of these acts of kindness contribute to a bigger story, a message that Random Acts embodies and promotes — that you too can conquer the world one random act of kindness at a time.

Fire tears through large home in Yorktown Heights
by WABCYORKTOWN HEIGHTS, Westchester County (WABC) -- Firefighters battled a fire that tore through a large home in Westchester County early Friday morning.
The fire broke out just after 6:30 a.m. inside the home on Baptist Church Road in Yorktown Heights.
The fire spread very quickly and destroyed the roof of the home.
Firefighters pumped water from a nearby pond in an effort to keep the water flowing onto the flames.
So far, there is no word of any injuries.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Take measures to prevent people from overbuying essential products.
On the flip side, demand for other products has gone down significantly due to COVID-19. If the inventory does not decompose over time, it is advisable to save it for use after COVID-19 passes, but if it decomposes, it is important not to let it go to waste.
COVID-19 has been shown to last on surfaces such as cardboard for up to 24 hours, and on plastic and steel for up to 72 hours. If possible, leave all incoming shipments untouched for that period of time. Alternatively, before interaction, shipments can be wiped down with disinfectant to prevent the spread of the disease.
It is also advisable to use gloves and a mask when interacting with both incoming and outgoing shipments to ensure the virus does not spread.


The UK Driver Vehicle License Authority makes information about vehicles available to the public, after they register for an API key. This package makes interacting with this API easy.
Data types and examples provided by the API are below
In addition to this package, you must apply for and be granted an API key from the UK Driver Vehicle Licensing Authority. You can do so here.
You can install the released version of DVLA from Github with:
devtools::install_github("daveyr/DVLA")
To retrieve data for a single vehicle, use getDVLA
.
To retrieve data for many vehicles, use tidyDVLA
. As the name suggests, tidyDVLA
is compatible with the pipe work flow common to the tidyverse, where a data frame is the first argument to any function, and its sole output.
The result is a data frame containing the input and vehicle data from the DVLA in additional columns. The data are tidy: one vehicle per row and one feature per column.
To understand more about how the API works, refer to the Vehicle Enquiry Service API documentation.
To summarise, the package works as follows:
httr
library with the following
x-api-key
and the key valueregistrationNumber
and the vehicle registration string

WATCH:Jambanja pamvura…Wrestling match sparks at borehole as residents fight for water
by Sharon ChirisaWrestling match sparks at borehole
The water crisis in Zimbabwe has brought the inner devil out of many people as the stress and frustration keeps mounting.
In a video making rounds on social media residents were captured fighting for turns at the borehole at a yet to be identified location.
So dire is the water crisis in Zimbabwe that in some areas people are waking up as early as 3 a.m.to fetch water from a communal borehole and will still be waiting for their turn at the borehole by early afternoon.

title: Array.prototype.partition status: proposal location: https://github.com/davy-ext-shims/Array.prototype.partition copyright: false contributors: - Tzu-Te Kuo (Davy) - Ecma International
This is the specification for a proposed `Array.prototype.partition` method in JavaScript.
It is modified from `Array.prototype.filter` in ECMAScript specification.
This method works like `Array.prototype.filter` but returns both identical and opposite result in a pair.
_predictor_ should be a function that accepts three arguments and returns a value that is coercible to a Boolean value. `partition` calls _predictor_ once for each element in the array, in ascending order, and constructs a new array contains two array, where first array contains values for which _predictor_ returns *true*, while second array contains values for which _predictor_ returns *false*. _predictor_ is called only for elements of the array which actually exist; it is not called for missing elements of the array.
If a _thisArg_ parameter is provided, it will be used as the *this* value for each invocation of _predictor_. If it is not provided, *undefined* is used instead.
_predictor_ is called with three arguments: the value of the element, the index of the element, and the object being traversed.
`partition` does not directly mutate the object on which it is called but the object *may* be mutated by the calls to _predictor_.
The range of elements processed by `partition` is set before the first call to _predictor_. Elements which are appended to the array after the call to `partition` begins will not be visited by _predictor_. If existing elements of the array are changed their value as passed to _predictor_ will be the value at the time `partition` visits them; elements that are deleted after the call to `partition` begins and before being visited are not visited.
When the `partition` method is called, the following steps are taken:
The `partition` function is intentionally generic; it does not require that its *this* value be an Array. Therefore it can be transferred to other kinds of objects for use as a method.
This specification is authored on GitHub in a plaintext source format called Ecmarkup.
Ecmarkup is an HTML and Markdown dialect that provides a framework and toolset for authoring ECMAScript specifications in plaintext and processing the specification into a full-featured HTML rendering that follows the editorial conventions for this document. Ecmarkup builds on and integrates a number of other formats and technologies including Grammarkdown for defining syntax and Ecmarkdown for authoring algorithm steps.

Everyone seems to be polarized at opposite ends of the spectrum on these drugs. Either they love them to the point of sounding like they’re advertising for a legal high online store, or they absolutely loathe them to the point of calling the drugs dirty, poisonous stimulants. I had to try them myself because A.) they're ridiculously cheap compared to MDMA, and B.) I'll try anything once, if there's at least a few documented cases of positive experiences, as long as they're remotely safe and relatively unpoisonous. ,)
I decided to take a capsule of approximately 30mg of mCPP and 50mg of meOPP to start, just to see how my body would react to it. After about an hour I started to feel like I was coming up on a pill of ecstasy. I felt light of foot, and a tad dizzy. After about an hour and a half, I felt a pretty decent euphoria that was not unlike an MDMA high. Not quite there, but if I had taken it blindly in a pill, I might have not known the difference, and have thought it was probably a small amount of MDMA mixed with MDA. I'd even venture to say that mCPP (and meOPP) is actually a better imitation of MDMA than MDA is.
At this point, I was feeling pleasant, but it was in waves, mixed with occasional feelings of lethargy and dysphoria, which I attributed to the smallish dose, so I upped the dose and took another capsule of mCPP/meOPP with the same dosage as before. After an hour, it hit pretty well. It was basically just like MDMA, but no jaw clenching, and my pupils were relatively normal. I didn't even feel nauseous at any point, except mildly during the come-up. I think reports of nausea are a bit overstated.
It's definitely more subtle than MDMA, and like I said before, the euphoria tends to come in waves -- settling down, then building back up again. If a proper dose is reached for me, it will feel surprisingly like MDMA, enhanced tactile sensations and all. I felt very empathetic, but not to the same degree as MDMA. There's even a mild visual component, which basically is a lot like MDA in magnitude (significant tracers and color enhancement). And, the weirdest effect of all -- for me, there was no loss of appetite. I couldn't eat too much, but I did eat.
After about four or five hours, I decided to give insufflation a try. I went ahead and made a small dot of about 20 or 30mgs of mCPP/meOPP, and railed it up.  After a minute of pain, it actually kicked in pretty fast and increased the effects, mostly the visual component. I had already been coming down, so this didn't do much in the way of euphoria. My body felt pretty good, but my brain was slightly over stimulated, and I couldn't focus on anything. I felt a bit overwhelmed. Even at this point, there was no appreciable effect on blood pressure or body temperature.
I felt weird enough at this point to go and call it a day, and went and laid in bed for a bit. I felt better once I was curled up in the covers. I felt floored at this point, and the blankets (plus the Tempurpedic mattress) felt so good. The comedown from these drugs is relatively painless, and I was able to get to sleep pretty quickly. I don't feel depressed afterwards. I just feel tired and worn out. Even today as I type this, the following evening, I'm experiencing absolutely no depression whatsoever. I have a headache, but I never once felt the 'woe is me!' that everyone gets the day after MDMA.
This stuff is surprisingly good. It's a fantastic alternative, for me, to MDMA that is milder on the body while still retaining a good deal of the 'rolling experience'. It's not a drug where I can keep taking more and more at the end of the trip to feel effects -- like MDMA, I'll just feel more side effects the longer I keep taking the drug in one contiguous session of usage. Furthermore, I think mCPP and meOPP are less friendly for prolonging the experience this way than MDMA is. I end up feeling plain weird if I take too much.

This Week in Food: The return of two favourites + a charcuterie festival
by Ross and KateBy Kate Stevenson
FROM THE ASHES
More than a year and a half after it was devastated by fire, popular Mornington Peninsula winery and fine diner Ten Minutes by Tractor has re-opened the doors to their new restaurant space. Their first service back in business saw them cater for the diners whose meals were interrupted on that fateful day, and the CFA crews who helped to fight the blaze. Now the rest of us can get in for a squiz and taste of Adam Sanderson’s stunning menu. tenminutesbytractor.com.au
A CLASSIC RETURNS
Speaking of popular venues, Melbourne Italian institution “Cosi Ristorante” has re-opened in South Yarra, with a new look, but the same charm that welcomed diners from across Melbourne before. Expect white tablecloths, waiters with bow ties, and classic Italian dishes like rigatoni tricolore basilico pomodorino e burrata, beetroot gnocchi with parmesan cheese, and cotoletta di vitello alla milanese. cosirestaurant.com.au
SHEPHERD’S DELIGHT
Scott Pickett has done it again. “Pastore” has opened at the swanky new Hotel Chadstone. Italian for “shepherd”, Pastore promises Italian cuisine with Australians references – so think Pici with sausage ragu and salted ricotta; or house-cured duck prosciutto with Davidson plum and Geraldton wax. Interestingly it is already proving just as popular with hungry diners in south east as hotel guests. I can tell you the house-made pasta is glorious, which is no surprise given they’ve got Mirko Speri (formerly of 38 Chairs) at the helm. pastorerestaurant.com.au
ONE TO WATCH
One of my favourite eating experiences of the year was the Omnia pop up in Toorak Road, which acted as a test kitchen while head chef Stephen Nairn waited for the real deal at the new Capitol Grand development to be ready. Well it’s nearly there, November 29 they’ll arrive at their new home, and by all reports it will be impressive. The new digs are on the ground floor at 625 Chapel Street, South Yarra. It’ll open for lunch and dinner, with breakfast to follow by the end of the year. Watch this space. omniabistro.com.au
A TASTY CELEBRATION
And just quickly – if you’re at a loose end this weekend, South Yarra based greengrocer LaManna & Sons is celebrating their second birthday with a weekend-long Charcuterie Festival (Sat 16th & Sun 17th Nov). There’ll be big grazing platters, in-store cooking demos, delicious samples from a range of local suppliers, a three-piece jazz performance and a blanket discount of 20 percent across all products. The word “charcuterie” should have been enough. Yum. lamannaandsons.com.au


Dear freshmen, here's some advice from a senior; when I joined NUS, there wasn't an S/U option for the modules I took in year 1 so grades were really important. But I learnt that freshman this year have to S/U there modules. I think that's fantastic. So I advice you to not worry so much about your grades and live a little before the road gets rough; believe me it will in the coming years and you will wish you had spent more time exploring uni life and doing new things when you had the chance to.  The road is long and in coming years, you might not have as much freedom as you do now to fully explore all the opportunities NUS provides you with. So just do it! #JKN00BS #GETREKT

Bumper Sticker Factory
A Real World Class
January 2, 2015
While driving home for the holidays, I spotted a bumper sticker I'd never seen before. It was in the cab of a small size pick-up strategically placed behind the driver's seat. Here's what it said: "Being a nice person is a good idea". The Highway 5 rally has always provided time and space to think. Since I've been given over to thinking of classes and objects these days, I had a puzzle over how to model Person and Idea correctly for this ethical and politely proselytizing driver. While classes can represent abstract concepts such as person and idea and allow for attributes such as 'good' and methods such as 'be nice', I thought of building something about the bumper sticker itself.
Here's a scratch list for ruby classes in general and for our bumper sticker class in particular.
- Figure out if the class can be included in a larger class. For example, if our bumper stickers are coming from the print shop they might descend from PrintProduct.
- Capitalize the first letters of the words in the class, no spaces, no hyphens. Ergo BumperSticker.
- When you have a whole list of variables for the class, give it an options hash so that your fellow rubyists do not need to read the class declaration to populate the variables to create a new BumperSticker.
- Initialize all variables with an optional value when that makes sense. For example, width for bumper stickers should be 10" and height should be 3". For visibility at a safe following distance, let's make our default font color white and our default background black. Slogans will be provided every time, so the slogan will not have an optional value.
- For cataloging slogans, we can use a class variable in the initialization statement as well as a self.add_slogan method to append the new slogan to the array of slogans when it doesn't already exist.
- When interacting with other classes, you can create an instance of the helper class and pass in the instance to the create statement of your class. For example, we might want to create a car first and then pass it to our bumper sticker to record which cars take which bumper stickers.
And remember.. Ham and eggs - A day's work for a chicken; A lifetime commitment for a pig.


[gecode-users] Real time interpreters using GECODE
Mauricio Toro
mauriciotorob at gmail.com
Wed Oct 31 21:38:19 CET 2007
Hello Gecode Comunity !
Together with the AVISPA research group we are trying to develop
a real time interpreter for a process calculus called
Non deterministic Timed Concurrent Constraint (NTCC), this calculus is a
non deterministic extension to the Timed Concurrent Constraint Calculus
(TCC).
In the past, some implementations were done using Mozart OZ using
combinators, but the
real time was not achieved. We are now considering using GECODE with
reification, but the whole concurrency syncronization seems to be a big
problem, additionally
reification could be not general enough.
We are also considering using GECOL (the lisp wraper of GECODE) because we
want to model music improvisation with the NTCC interpreted, and LISP has
been widely
used for computer music.
- Do you considered that a real time interpreter can be done with GECODE?
- What about GECOL? fast enough?
- What other options could we consider to make the interpreter?
Thank you very much
