‘We can come here once again,' said Julia. ‘It's generally safe to use any hide-out twice. But not for another month or two, of course.'
As soon as she woke up her demeanour had changed. She became alert and business-like, put her clothes on, knotted the scarlet sash about her waist, and began arranging the details of the journey home. It seemed natural to leave this to her. She obviously had a practical cunning which Winston lacked, and she seemed also to have an exhaustive knowledge of the countryside round London, stored away from innumerable community hikes. The route she gave him was quite different from the one by which he had come, and brought him out at a different railway station. ‘Never go home the same way as you went out,' she said, as though enunciating an important general principle. She would leave first, and Winston was to wait half an hour before following her.
She had named a place where they could meet after work, four evenings hence. It was a street in one of the poorer quarters, where there was an open market which was generally crowded and noisy. She would be hanging about among the stalls, pretending to be in search of shoelaces or sewing-thread. If she judged that the coast was clear she would blow her nose when he approached; otherwise he was to walk past her without recognition. But with luck, in the middle of the crowd, it would be safe to talk for a quarter of an hour and arrange another meeting.
‘And now I must go,' she said as soon as he had mastered his instructions. ‘I'm due back at nineteen-thirty. I've got to put in two hours for the Junior Anti-Sex League, handing out leaflets, or something. Isn't it bloody? Give me a brush-down拍掉灰尘, would you? Have I got any twigs in my hair? Are you sure? Then good-bye, my love, good-bye!'
She flung herself into his arms, kissed him almost violently, and a moment later pushed her way through the saplings and disappeared into the wood with very little noise. Even now he had not found out her surname or her address. However, it made no difference, for it was inconceivable that they could ever meet indoors or exchange any kind of written communication.
As it happened, they never went back to the clearing in the wood. During the month of May there was only one further occasion on which they actually succeeded in making love. That was in another hiding-place known to Julia, the belfry of a ruinous church in an almost-deserted stretch of country where an atomic bomb had fallen thirty years earlier. It was a good hiding-place when once you got there, but the getting there was very dangerous. For the rest they could meet only in the streets, in a different place every evening and never for more than half an hour at a time. In the street it was usually possible to talk, after a fashion. As they drifted down the crowded pavements, not quite abreast and never looking at one another, they carried on a curious, intermittent conversation which flicked on and off like the beams of a lighthouse, suddenly nipped into silence by the approach of a Party uniform or the proximity of a telescreen, then taken up again minutes later in the middle of a sentence, then abruptly cut short as they parted at the agreed spot, then continued almost without introduction on the following day. Julia appeared to be quite used to this kind of conversation, which she called ‘talking by instalments'. She was also surprisingly adept at speaking without moving her lips. Just once in almost a month of nightly meetings they managed to exchange a kiss. They were passing in silence down a side-street (Julia would never speak when they were away from the main streets) when there was a deafening roar, the earth heaved, and the air darkened, and Winston found himself lying on his side, bruised and terrified. A rocket bomb must have dropped quite near at hand. Suddenly he became aware of Julia's face a few centimetres from his own, deathly white, as white as chalk. Even her lips were white. She was dead! He clasped her against him and found that he was kissing a live warm face. But there was some powdery stuff that got in the way of his lips. Both of their faces were thickly coated with plaster.
There were evenings when they reached their rendezvous and then had to walk past one another without a sign, because a patrol had just come round the corner or a helicopter was hovering overhead. Even if it had been less dangerous, it would still have been difficult to find time to meet. Winston's working week was sixty hours, Julia's was even longer, and their free days varied according to the pressure of work and did not often coincide. Julia, in any case, seldom had an evening completely free. She spent an astonishing amount of time in attending lectures and demonstrations, distributing literature for the junior Anti-Sex League, preparing banners for Hate Week, making collections for the savings campaign, and such-like activities. It paid, she said, it was camouflage（军事上的）伪装，隐蔽a way of hiding soldiers and military equipment, using paint, leaves or nets, so that they look like part of their surroundings. If you kept the small rules, you could break the big ones. She even induced Winston to mortgage yet another of his evenings by enrolling himself for the part-time munition work which was done voluntarily by zealous Party members. So, one evening every week, Winston spent four hours of paralysing boredom, screwing together small bits of metal which were probably parts of bomb fuses, in a draughty, ill-lit workshop where the knocking of hammers mingled drearily with the music of the telescreens.
When they met in the church tower the gaps in their fragmentary conversation were filled up. It was a blazing afternoon. The air in the little square chamber above the bells was hot and stagnant, and smelt overpoweringly of pigeon dung（尤指大型动物的）粪 solid waste from animals, especially from large ones. They sat talking for hours on the dusty, twig-littered floor, one or other of them getting up from time to time to cast a glance through the arrowslits and make sure that no one was coming.
Julia was twenty-six years old. She lived in a hostel with thirty other girls ('Always in the stink of women! How I hate women!' she said parenthetically), and she worked, as he had guessed, on the novel-writing machines in the Fiction Department. She enjoyed her work, which consisted chiefly in running and servicing a powerful but tricky electric motor. She was ‘not clever', but was fond of using her hands and felt at home with machinery. She could describe the whole process of composing a novel, from the general directive issued by the Planning Committee down to the final touching-up by the Rewrite Squad. But she was not interested in the finished product. She ‘didn't much care for reading,' she said. Books were just a commodity that had to be produced, like jam or bootlaces.
She had no memories of anything before the early sixties and the only person she had ever known who talked frequently of the days before the Revolution was a grandfather who had disappeared when she was eight. At school she had been captain of the hockey冰球运动；冰上曲棍球a game played on ice, in which players use long sticks to hit a hard rubber disc (called a puck ) into the other team's goal team and had won the gymnastics trophy two years running. She had been a troop-leader in the Spies and a branch secretary in the Youth League before joining the Junior Anti-Sex League. She had always borne an excellent character. She had even (an infallible永无过失的；一贯正确的never wrong; never making mistakes mark of good reputation) been picked out to work in Pornosec, the sub-section of the Fiction Department which turned out cheap pornography for distribution among the proles. It was nicknamed Muck House by the people who worked in it, she remarked. There she had remained for a year, helping to produce booklets in sealed packets with titles like ‘Spanking Stories' or ‘One Night in a Girls' School', to be bought furtively by proletarian youths who were under the impression that they were buying something illegal.
‘What are these books like?' said Winston curiously.
‘Oh, ghastly rubbish. They're boring, really. They only have six plots, but they swap them round a bit. Of course I was only on the kaleidoscopes. I was never in the Rewrite Squad. I'm not literary, dear—not even enough for that.'
He learned with astonishment that all the workers in Pornosec, except the heads of the departments, were girls. The theory was that men, whose sex instincts were less controllable than those of women, were in greater danger of being corrupted by the filth they handled.
‘They don't even like having married women there,' she added. Girls are always supposed to be so pure. Here's one who isn't, anyway.
She had had her first love-affair when she was sixteen, with a Party member of sixty who later committed suicide to avoid arrest. ‘And a good job too,' said Julia, ‘otherwise they'd have had my name out of him when he confessed.' Since then there had been various others. Life as she saw it was quite simple. You wanted a good time; ‘they', meaning the Party, wanted to stop you having it; you broke the rules as best you could. She seemed to think it just as natural that ‘they' should want to rob you of your pleasures as that you should want to avoid being caught. She hated the Party, and said so in the crudest words, but she made no general criticism of it. Except where it touched upon her own life she had no interest in Party doctrine. He noticed that she never used Newspeak words except the ones that had passed into everyday use. She had never heard of the Brotherhood, and refused to believe in its existence.  The clever thing was to break the rules and stay alive all the same. He wondered vaguely how many others like her there might be in the younger generation people who had grown up in the world of the Revolution, knowing nothing else, accepting the Party as something unalterable, like the sky, not rebelling against its authority but simply evading it, as a rabbit dodges a dog.
‘What was she like, your wife?' said Julia.
‘She was—do you know the Newspeak word GOODTHINKFUL? Meaning naturally orthodox, incapable of thinking a bad thought?'
‘No, I didn't know the word, but I know the kind of person, right enough.'
He began telling her the story of his married life, but curiously enough she appeared to know the essential parts of it already. She described to him, almost as though she had seen or felt it, the stiffening of Katharine's body as soon as he touched her, the way in which she still seemed to be pushing him from her with all her strength, even when her arms were clasped tightly round him. With Julia he felt no difficulty in talking about such things: Katharine, in any case, had long ceased to be a painful memory and became merely a distasteful one.
‘I could have stood it if it hadn't been for one thing,' he said. He told her about the frigid little ceremony that Katharine had forced him to go through on the same night every week. ‘She hated it, but nothing would make her stop doing it. She used to call it—but you'll never guess.'
‘Our duty to the Party,' said Julia promptly.
‘How did you know that?'
‘I've been at school too, dear. Sex talks once a month for the over-sixteens. And in the Youth Movement. They rub it into you for years. I dare say it works in a lot of cases.
She began to enlarge upon the subject. With Julia, everything came back to her own sexuality. As soon as this was touched upon in any way she was capable of great acuteness. Unlike Winston, she had grasped the inner meaning of the Party's sexual puritanism. It was not merely that the sex instinct created a world of its own which was outside the Party's control and which therefore had to be destroyed if possible. What was more important was that sexual privation induced hysteria, which was desirable because it could be transformed into war-fever and leader-worship.  They can't bear you to feel like that. They want you to be bursting with energy all the time.
That was very true, he thought. There was a direct intimate connexion between chastity and political orthodoxy. For how could the fear, the hatred, and the lunatic credulity which the Party needed in its members be kept at the right pitch, except by bottling down some powerful instinct and using it as a driving force? The sex impulse was dangerous to the Party, and the Party had turned it to account. They had played a similar trick with the instinct of parenthood. The family could not actually be abolished, and, indeed, people were encouraged to be fond of their children, in almost the old-fashioned way. The children, on the other hand, were systematically turned against their parents and taught to spy on them and report their deviations. The family had become in effect an extension of the Thought Police. It was a device by means of which everyone could be surrounded night and day by informers who knew him intimately.
Abruptly his mind went back to Katharine.  But what really recalled her to him at this moment was the stifling heat of the afternoon, which had brought the sweat out on his forehead. He began telling Julia of something that had happened, or rather had failed to happen, on another sweltering summer afternoon, eleven years ago.
It was three or four months after they were married. They had lost their way on a community hike somewhere in Kent. They had only lagged behind the others for a couple of minutes, but they took a wrong turning, and presently found themselves pulled up short by the edge of an old chalk quarry. It was a sheer drop of ten or twenty metres, with boulders at the bottom. There was nobody of whom they could ask the way. As soon as she realized that they were lost Katharine became very uneasy. To be away from the noisy mob of hikers even for a moment gave her a feeling of wrong-doing. She wanted to hurry back by the way they had come and start searching in the other direction. But at this moment Winston noticed some tufts of loosestrife growing in the cracks of the cliff beneath them. One tuft was of two colours, magenta紫红色的；洋红色的 reddish-purple in colour and brick-red, apparently growing on the same root. He had never seen anything of the kind before, and he called to Katharine to come and look at it.
‘Look, Katharine! Look at those flowers. That clump down near the bottom. Do you see they're two different colours?'
She had already turned to go, but she did rather fretfully烦躁的；苦恼的；不舒适的 behaving in a way that shows you are unhappy or uncomfortable come back for a moment. She even leaned out over the cliff face to see where he was pointing. He was standing a little behind her, and he put his hand on her waist to steady her. At this moment it suddenly occurred to him how completely alone they were. There was not a human creature anywhere, not a leaf stirring, not even a bird awake. In a place like this the danger that there would be a hidden microphone was very small, and even if there was a microphone it would only pick up sounds. It was the hottest sleepiest hour of the afternoon. The sun blazed down upon them, the sweat tickled his face. And the thought struck him...
‘Why didn't you give her a good shove?' said Julia. ‘I would have.
‘Yes, dear, you would have. I would, if I'd been the same person then as I am now. Or perhaps I would—I'm not certain.'
‘Are you sorry you didn't?'
‘Yes. On the whole I'm sorry I didn't.'
They were sitting side by side on the dusty floor. He pulled her closer against him.  She was very young, he thought, she still expected something from life, she did not understand that to push an inconvenient person over a cliff solves nothing.
‘Actually it would have made no difference,' he said.
‘Then why are you sorry you didn't do it?'
‘Only because I prefer a positive to a negative. In this game that we're playing, we can't win. Some kinds of failure are better than other kinds, that's all.'
 She always contradicted him when he said anything of this kind. She would not accept it as a law of nature that the individual is always defeated. In a way she realized that she herself was doomed, that sooner or later the Thought Police would catch her and kill her, but with another part of her mind she believed that it was somehow possible to construct a secret world in which you could live as you chose. All you needed was luck and cunning and boldness. She did not understand that there was no such thing as happiness, that the only victory lay in the far future, long after you were dead, that from the moment of declaring war on the Party it was better to think of yourself as a corpse.
‘We are the dead,' he said.
‘We're not dead yet,' said Julia prosaically单调地,没有想象力地.
‘Not physically. Six months, a year—five years, conceivably. I am afraid of death.  Obviously we shall put it off as long as we can. But it makes very little difference. So long as human beings stay human, death and life are the same thing.'
‘Oh, rubbish! Which would you sooner sleep with, me or a skeleton?   Don't you like THIS?'
She twisted herself round and pressed her bosom女人的胸部（或乳房）a woman's chest or breasts against him. He could feel her breasts, ripe yet firm, through her overalls. Her body seemed to be pouring some of its youth and vigour into his.
‘Yes, I like that,' he said.
‘Then stop talking about dying. And now listen, dear, we've got to fix up about the next time we meet. We may as well go back to the place in the wood. We've given it a good long rest. But you must get there by a different way this time. I've got it all planned out. You take the train—but look, I'll draw it out for you.'
And in her practical way she scraped together a small square of dust, and with a twig from a pigeon's nest began drawing a map on the floor.

Rivals shot murder accused dead in Jaranwala court
by Staff ReportJARANWALA: An accused murderer was shot dead by his rival in the premises of a court in the Faisalabad district city during an ongoing hearing, police said Friday.
Police presented the murder accused, Tara Gujjar in the court of Additional Session Judge Muhammad Naeem Saleem.
The accused, who was in handcuffs, died on the spot whereas two of the assailants were arrested on the scene, police sources said.
After the shootout, the officials who brought Gujjar to the court also fled from the scene.
Apparently, the deceased had been targeted over old personal enmity by his rivals.
Police, after taking the two shooters into their custody, started legal action in this regard.

s6
Software
skarnet.org
The s6-sudod program
s6-sudod receives command-line arguments, environment variables
and standard descriptors from a peer s6-sudoc
program over a Unix socket, then forks another program.
Interface
s6-sudod [ -0 ] [ -1 ] [ -2 ] [ -d ] [ -t timeout ] [ sargv... ]
- s6-sudod gets 3 file descriptors via fd-passing over a Unix socket that
must be open on its descriptors 0 and 1. (The received descriptors will be the
stdin, stdout and stderr of the server program.) It expects a
s6-sudoc process to be sending them on the
client side.
- It also receives a list of command-line arguments cargv..., and
an environment clientenv.
- s6-sudod forks and executes sargv... cargv...
The client command line is appended to the server command line.
- s6-sudod waits for its child to exit and transmits its exit code
to the peer s6-sudoc process. It then exits 0.
Environment
s6-sudod transmits its own environment to its child, plus the environment sent
by s6-sudoc, filtered in the following manner:
for every variable sent by s6-sudoc, if the
variable is present but empty in s6-sudod's environment, then
its value is overriden by the value given by s6-sudoc. A variable that is
already nonempty, or that doesn't exist, in s6-sudod's environment, will not
be transmitted to the child. In other words:
- If there's no variable X in s6-sudod's environment, the child
will have no variable X defined
- If there's a non-empty variable X in s6-sudod's environment,
the child will inherit that variable, with its value, from s6-sudod
- If there's an empty variable X in s6-sudod's environment,
and s6-sudoc transmits variable X, then the child will inherit that
variable with the value from s6-sudoc. (If s6-sudoc does not transmit X,
the variable will be present, but empty, in the child's environment.)
Options
- -0 : do not inherit stdin from s6-sudoc. The child will be
run with its stdin pointing to /dev/null instead.
- -1 : do not inherit stdout from s6-sudoc. The child will be
run with its stdout pointing to /dev/null instead.
- -2 : do not inherit stderr from s6-sudoc. The child will be
run with its stderr being a copy of s6-sudod's stderr instead. (This is useful
to still log the child's error messages without sending them to the client.)
- -d : detach. The child will keep running until it naturally
exits, even if the client disconnects. Setting this option also enforces
-0, -1 and -2. Bear in mind that this option
relinquishes a lot of control over the child, and administrators should make sure
it is appropriately short-lived.
- -t timeout : if s6-sudod has not
received all the needed data from the client after timeout
milliseconds, it will exit without spawning a child. By default, timeout
is 0, meaning infinite. This mechanism exists to protect the server from
malicious or buggy clients that would uselessly consume resources.
Usage example
The typical use of s6-sudod is in a
local service with a
s6-ipcserver process listening on a Unix
socket, an s6-ipcserver-access process
performing client authentication and access control, and possibly a
s6-envdir
process setting up the environment variables that will be accepted by
s6-sudod. The following script, meant to be a run script in a
service directory,
will set up a privileged program:
#!/command/execlineb -P
fdmove -c 2 1
fdmove 1 3
s6-envuidgid serveruser
s6-ipcserver -U -1 -- serversocket
s6-ipcserver-access -v2 -l0 -i rules --
exec -c
s6-envdir env
s6-sudod
sargv
- execlineb
executes the script.
- fdmove makes
sure the script's error messages are sent to the service's logger.
- fdmove
redirects the script's stdout to file descriptor 3. This is useful if
the service directory contains a notification-fd file containing
3, so the daemon can perform
readiness notification by writing a
newline to its stdout. (The
-1 option to s6-ipcserver tells it to do this.)
- s6-envuidgid
sets the UID, GID and GIDLIST environment variables for s6-ipcserver to interpret.
- s6-ipcserver binds to serversocket,
drops its privileges to those of serveruser, and announces its
readiness. Then, for every client connecting to serversocket:
- s6-ipcserver-access checks the
client's credentials according to the rules in directory rules.
- exec -c
clears the environment.
- s6-envdir
sets environment variables according to the directory env. You can
make sure that a variable VAR will be present but empty by performing
echo > env/VAR. (A single newline is interpreted by s6-envdir as
an empty variable; whereas if env/VAR is totally empty, then the
VAR variable will be removed from the environment.)
- s6-sudod reads a command line cargv, a client environment
and file descriptors over the socket.
- s6-sudod spawns sargv cargv.
(Actually, s6-ipcserver does not do this
itself: it executes into other programs that each do one of the tasks. But for
our example, it does not matter.)
This means that user clientuser running
s6-sudo serversocket cargv will be
able, if authorized by the configuration in rules, to run
sargv cargv as user serveruser, with stdin,
stdout, stderr and the environment variables properly listed in env
transmitted to sargv.
Notes
- If the -d option to s6-sudod has not been given, and
s6-sudoc is killed (or exits after timeoutrun milliseconds)
while the server program is still running, s6-sudod will send a SIGTERM and a
SIGCONT to its child, then exit 1. However, sending a SIGTERM to the child
does not guarantee that it will die; and
if it keeps running, it might still read from the file that
was s6-sudoc's stdin, or write to the files that were s6-sudoc's stdout or
stderr. This is a potential security risk.
Administrators should audit their server programs to make sure this does not
happen.
- More generally, anything using signals or terminals will not be
handled transparently by the s6-sudoc + s6-sudod mechanism. The mechanism
was designed to allow programs to gain privileges in specific situations:
short-lived, simple, noninteractive processes. It was not designed to emulate
the full suid functionality and will not go out of its way to do so.
- Administrators should also make sure that it's not a problem if
s6-sudod's child keeps running after the s6-sudoc client exits, if they
have given the -d option to s6-sudod. In particular, they should
study what happens if another connection to the same service occurs while
an instance is still running.
- sargv may be empty. In that case, the client is in complete
control of the command line executed as serveruser. This setup is
permitted by s6-sudod, but it is very dangerous, and extreme attention should
be paid to the construction of the s6-ipcserver-access rules.

Middleman deploy via Git from Docker
This blog was built with Middleman and deploy to GitHub Pages.
I’m using the middleman-deploy gem to deploy via Git.
Last year I decided to use docker to develop and running this blog and one of the problems I had at that moment it was to make the deploy works from the docker container.
And that’s what this post is about.
I’m using ruby:2.7.1-alpine3.12
as docker base image.
Before I added docker to this project the dependencies were installed locally and since I have Git already setup it was enough to run the middleman deploy
command from the root of the project to deploy to GitHub Pages.
It worked because the middleman-deploy
gem had access to these two files:
~/.gitconfig
~/.ssh/id_rsa
But now all the dependencies live inside of the docker container so we need to setup Git inside of the container.
The middleman-deploy
gem makes automatics commits in the deploy process and the commits are make with the user that is in the ~/.gitconfig
file.
To deploy, the middleman-deploy
gem pushes the files generates in the build process to GitHub and it uses the ~/.ssh/id_rsa
file to authenticate over SSH.
We need to ensure that the Docker container has access to the two files mentioned above.
We’ll use docker-compose to make easier our setup.
Docker implements secrets to manage sensitive data like our ssh key.
Docker can read secrets either from its own database (e.g. secrets made with docker secret create
) or from a file.
For the ~/.gitconfig
file we’re going to stored it as a volume and for the ~/.ssh/id_rsa
file we’ll use secrets.
docker-compose.yml
version: "3.7"
services:
web:
build: .
volumes:
- .:/usr/src/app
- ~/.gitconfig:/root/.gitconfig # Include our .gitconfig file into the container
secrets:
host_ssh_key: # The name to identify the secret
file: ~/.ssh/id_rsa # The file to create as secret
The location of the mount point within the container is /run/secrets/<secret_name>
but we know that the id_rsa
file must be inside of the ~/.ssh
directory.
So the last step is update the Dockerfile to create the ~/.ssh
directory and make a symbolic link for the id_rsa
file.
Docker
RUN mkdir ~/.ssh && ln -s /run/secrets/host_ssh_key ~/.ssh/id_rsa
With everything setup we can now deploy to GitHub Pages from a Docker container.
# Generate the docker image
docker-compose build
# Start the web service
docker-compose up -d
# Deploy from Docker container
docker-compose exec web middleman deploy
Dockerfile:
FROM ruby:2.7.1-alpine3.12
RUN apk add --update --no-cache \
build-base \
tzdata \
git \
openssh \
yarn
RUN mkdir ~/.ssh && ln -s /run/secrets/host_ssh_key ~/.ssh/id_rsa
WORKDIR ./usr/src/app
COPY Gemfile* ./
RUN bundle install
COPY yarn* ./
RUN yarn install
COPY . .
EXPOSE 4567
CMD ["bundle", "exec", "middleman", "s", "--bind-address", "<IP_ADDRESS>"]

wikiHow to Give a Tip to a Dealer
Community Q&A
When playing table games at a casino, it is courteous to offer the dealer a tip. Like restaurant servers, most dealers make most of their money from tips.
Steps
1
Just slide the dealer a chip and say "thanks". The dealer will then tap the chip and put it into a transparent tip box. The dealer will appreciate this, but it's not very exciting. In most games you can just slide the chip across the table to the dealer, but in craps you should toss the chip anywhere on the table and say "for the crew" or something to that effect.
2
Place a bet for the dealers. In craps, you make a small second bet next to whatever bet you're making and you say "for the dealers".
Craps: There are a few popular ways to get the "boys" (the house crew of either gender) in on the action by placing a bet for them. The way to give them the best odds is to bet exactly how a shrewd player bets for himself: on the pass line, with maximum odds played once the point is set. To do this, place a chip of lower value next to your pass line bet and say "dealer money". This dealer bet can be lower than the table minimum. Then, when the point is established, put a few chips behind the dealer's chip. If the shooter makes his point, the dealers win and get a nice little payout.
Craps: Another traditional bet is the "two-way yo". ("Yo" is craps slang for 11). Throw two low-value chips on the table, say "two-way yo", and the dealer will place two yo bets: one for you and one for the dealers. A yo bet is a long shot at 18:1 odds, but it pays out at 15:1, so if you ever hit a yo for the dealers they will get a nice tip from you.
Card games: In table games with cards, you can also make a wager for the dealer on the next hand. Simply place a low-value chip toward the dealer, in front of the spot where your own chip goes. If you win the hand, the dealer will pay both your bet and his bet and then tap his winnings into the tip box. If you lose, the house gets it all back.
Roulette: The expected value playing Roulette is so awful that you should just give the tip to the dealer directly. Better yet, you should get up and play craps or blackjack. When played with a basic knowledge of proper wagers and decisions, craps and blackjack have about a 1% house edge. Roulette will always have at LEAST a 5-6% house edge on you.
3
Know how much to tip. Traditionally, not very much. Most casino gamblers, especially at low limit tables, tip nothing at all. Most dealers will thank you earnestly for any tip. It's up to you. When playing for the house it is quite customary to use $1 or $2.50 chips, while you are playing with $5 or $10 or more. Don't be afraid to play for them with even only $1, that is quite common.
4
Tip whenever you feel generous. Some people like to throw a $1 bet for the house pretty frequently, some will play all night and then hand their dealer a more substantial tip at the end. It is much more customary to tip when winning than when losing.
5
Tip whoever you want. Most people who do tip at all tend to tip any dealer who is courteous and competent. A dealer who is fun to chat with, pays good attention to you, saves you from forgetting to place a bet, or helps you refresh your memory as to the optimal move to make in your situation is a good dealer. A dealer who does most or all of these things is a great dealer. Tip quite a bit more if your dealer is making your time more fun or saving me from committing errors in a fast-paced game. Of course, you are not obligated to tip anyone. If a dealer is rude or screws up placing your bet, that's bad news.


static void
Entity Framework
- EF v1 was released in 2008, and everybody hated it
- EF v4 (there was no v2 or v3) was released in 2010 (now old, deprecated). See EF data/model first, the original EF 4 database/model first approach, with edmx designer and "Entity SQL"
- EF v4.1 was released in 2011 and included Code First.
EF v6 was released in 2013.
- EF Core v1 (originally "EF v7") was released in 2016 (NB: EF v6 was still supported and recommended for most scenarios)
- NHibernate is the other big ORM. It's more mature than EF Code First, but the legacy is confusing (multiple ways of mapping, old HQL/Criteria style queries)
- Dapper is a minimal ADO wrapper ("micro-ORM" without the R). For optimized SQL, but you can do native SQL anyway within EF and NHibernate.
- There are intermediates between heavy ORMs like EF/NHib and raw ADO/Dapper, like PetaPoco and SimpleData. There are also older mappers like Castle ActiveRecord.
- IMHO for most purposes, EF Code First is the easiest to get up and running, and then refine and upgrade
- NHibernate is still better for more complex requirements and scaling
- For optimized low-level stuff, just use Dapper/ADO


With this app you can do different things. On this page you can get inspired to do an activity if you get bored. Page 2 I only use for API inspiration. But you can go to page 3 which contains a name generator, or page 4 where you find random jokes.
Click the button to get suggestions for public API's with no authentication.
Follow the link to see the API documentation. Remark: every API has one or more "endpoints" - this is basically a root url to access the API. Then most API's have additional "query values", which is used to specify further parameters.
For example:
Here you can get a random name by first choosing a gender. It will then give you a random name from somewhere in the world. If you are not happy with the given name, just click the button again. You can also get an entire new identity by clocking the "Identity" button.

Device Information
Debug Interface
MOD pin is normally used to select the debug interface as explained in the Debugging tutorial. However, the MOD pin feature can be disabled and the debug interface can be forced to a specific interface.
DeviceInformation.SetDebugInterface(DebugInterface.Usb);
DeviceInformation.SetDebugInterface(DebugInterface.Serial);
The debug interface can be completely disabled for the managed application's IP Protection DeviceInformation.SetDebugInterface(DebugInterface.Disable);
The current debug interface can be determined as follows:
if (DeviceInformation.DebugInterface == DebugInterface.Usb)
Debug.WriteLine("Debug is in USB mode");
The return results from DeviceInformation.DebugInterface
only states the current interface but it does not know if that is due to MOD pin being set in that mode or the interface was forced to that specific interface. The DeviceInformation.IsModePinDisabled
can be used to determine if MOD was used.
As an alternate option, users can change the debug interface using TinyCLR Config tool.
Note
Once the debug interfaces changed or disabled, it may not be possible to communicate with the device anymore. However, changing or disabling the interface does not affect the bootloader. Users can always enter the bootloader, which will be in serial or USB depending on MOD pin. From there a Erase All
can be issues, manually or though the TinyCLR Config tool.
APP Pin
The Special Pin APP's feature can be disabled using:
DeviceInformation.AppPinDisable();
var appDisPin = DeviceInformation.IsAppPinDisabled();
TinyCLR Config tool can also be used to disable APP feature.
Unique ID
Returns devices UniqueId
var deviceId = DeviceInformation.GetUniqueId();
Firmware Info
Returns devices firmware Version
.
var major = (ushort)((DeviceInformation.Version >> 48) & 0xFFFF);
var minor = (ushort)((DeviceInformation.Version >> 32) & 0xFFFF);
var build = (ushort)((DeviceInformation.Version >> 16) & 0xFFFF);
var revision = (ushort)((DeviceInformation.Version >> 0) & 0xFFFF);
Debug.WriteLine(major +"."+ minor +"."+ build +"."+ revision);
Manufacture Name
Returns ManufacturerName
information.
Debug.WriteLine(DeviceInformation.ManufacturerName);
Device Name
Devices have a default name that they ship with. This can be read using DeviceInformation.DeviceName
. This name also shows on the USB debug interface. The name can changed only once through DeviceInformation.SetPersistDeviceName("New Device Name")
. Once set, a complete device erase is required before changing the name again.
Tip
Since Windows caches the name when loading the driver, Windows Device Manager
will still show the old name. Simply right-click on the device and uninstall the driver. The next time it installs the drivers it will update with the new name.

Map Translator: errors and symptoms
This page is designed to record examples of common Partner errors in various log files and symptoms related to such errors.
To find an error message such as those listed below, look in several places, in order:
- Open <root translator>/Partner4.0<or Partner4.4>/logs/partner.log and search for fatal, then error
- An error here indicates there was a problem with the 4.0 Map Viewer or updating the 4.0 map viewer;
- Open <root translator>/4.0/logs/partner.log and, again, search for fatal, then error
- An error here indicates there was a problem somewhere in the Palm/4.0 translation;
- Open <root translator>/Shared/data/RoverTranslator.log and search for error
- This is where the majority of configuration errors will be displayed (labels, find items, transforms, etc).
- Finally, open Shared/data/MapTranslator.log and search for error, then stderr
- This is the only place where you will know if the 3.7 translator needs more memory.
- IF ALL ELSE FAILS and the translator is still crashing, you can keep a terminal log up. =>Here is how to do this<=

fn() computeSplittersCompute splitters for a sequence of objects.
Compute splitters for a sequence of objects.
| Defined in | <seqan/parallel.h> |
|---|---|
| Signature |
void computeSplitters(splitters, size, count);
|
Parameters
splitters
|
Resulting splitters, will be resized to contain count + 1 elements, e.g. an AllocString of integers. |
|---|---|
size
|
The number of objects to split. |
count
|
The number of chunks. |
Detailed Description
Remarks
The first count - 1 chunks will have the size ceil(size / count), the last chunk will contain the rest.
Examples
Most simple case for splitting.
String<unsigned> splitters; computeSplitters(splitters, 10, 5); // splitters == {0, 5, 10}
In this case, the last chunks will stay empty.
computeSplitters(splitters, 3, 5); // splitters == {0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 3}

Welcome to IT Support, which handles conversation for internal IT application support. You can ask simple question like:
The supplier on boarding business process deployed on IBM BPM on Cloud can be triggered automatically from this conversation broker for the dialog flow. To demonstrate you need an account on BPM on Cloud demo server and do the following steps:
The process is created and the business process calls Watson Discovery to search the company / product in the News collection, the user can then claims a task in his working basket on BPM Process portal to see the search results and assess the risk to add this supplier as business partner. If accepted the supplier is added to the blockchain network


In order to provide you, the user, with the best possible experience, we have incorporated a few different technologies. In this section of our page, we will explain how these work independently and how they come together. To begin, we have to understand how the data itself comes together.
This is a density plot that outlines how the data is spread out in the dataset itself. Some data falls under what we call a "Normal Distribution", which is a fancy way of saying it looks symmetrical in the way the data "falls" onto the graph. We can also see some of this data is skewed(leaning towards) to the left and right. We will need to apply some normalization to this data to ensure even distribution across the board. Afterwards, our data is ready to be processed. Before we do that though, we want to ask the question. How does this data all work together?
Through these two graphics, you can see how it is the data we look at all comes together and also how it works independently.
We use a model from the sklearn python library called the NearestNeighbors model. In order to make this model run quickly and efficiently, we house our data in it's own warehouse. This allows the model to access it without taking up too much of your processor's power. It takes in your input through the app and breaks it down into the metrics you see above. We can then query into the database and create a list of Euclidian distances and index positions for songs that are close in correlation. From there, we can input the list we created above and query from the database the artist, song, and the correlation. This data is added to a DataFrame to make it look better to you, the user. more on NearestNeighbors
We as Devs, have your best interests in mind. We believe that everyone deserves free, unaquittaled access to developing their musical interests. We approached this project, wanting to live up to not only this mission statement, but to our users expectations of an accurate model, good visuals, and easy to digest content.
We appreciate you taking the time to view our page.

‘Love Island’ Star Justin Lacko Has Given More Details About That Surprise Bebe Announcement
by By Melissa MasonAnyone who followed season 1 of Love Island Australia was shooketh to their core yesterday, when Justin Lacko announced out of the bloody blue that he’s expected une bebe next year.
In case you missed it, Justin uploaded this Instagram:
The second pic if you slide across is him and a girl we’d never seen before – whose account is (probably understandably tbh) set to private.
Now To Love got in touch with Justin off the back of the mysterious announcement, and he’s given a bit more background to the whole thing.
The woman is Anita Barone Scott, and it turns out she and Justin were dating – although they aren’t anymore.
“We aren’t together anymore but we are very supportive of one another and will be loving and caring for our child. Best friends for life,” he said.
He also reiterated how exciting the news is as a closure on his 20s.
“This is such a great feeling and a perfect way to celebrate the last year of my 20s,” he told the publication, adding that he will be making a “little Zoolander” out of the kid, which is mildly alarming because I don’t think he’s joking.
Look, congrats Justin and Anita, and thank you for the wonderful tea you poured into Instagram yesterday because all I care about in this world is juicy mysterious life announcements from ex reality TV stars.

I’m in Jodhpur, India, in my junior year at Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), trying to stay focused and stay ahead of my responsibilities (but come on who am I kidding!). This is what I spend my time doing(In order of time spent ):
These are my main priorities right now.
If my activities or priorities happen to change, I’ll update this page to reflect those changes. The last update was on September 14, 2016.
This page is a public declaration and a reminder to myself. It was inspired by Derek Sivers (as are a lot of things on this blog ) .

Dear Delegates
Please note that all the representatives will get multiple character and policy options to choose from in their background guides initially, so they will not necessarily be representing a particular house but rather a particular region.
This has been done to ensure a fair playing ground for every member in this committee, as this way the future course of the committee will largely depend on how you choose to represent your position given the situations in the realm, past and present. More details and explanation will of course follow in the guide.
Every delegate basically has the chance to determine the version of events depending on how they choose to act. Of course there will be conflicts of interests, arguments, clashes and maybe even wars. Alliances will be made or broken, Lords will be raised or removed, and anyone may at any time, die.
So are you ready? For winter is truly coming this year, especially for the chosen ones.


Somewhat Damaged
What can I say? What else can I do? I've given this a shot, thought "hey, I'm a grown-ass man, how hard can it be?" Well, those of you who still might be reading, pretty difficult is the answer you're looking for. I think the combination of the holidays and not having a previous background in the coporate world has made the search really hard. Well, maybe my pride has a bit to do with it as well since I've put myself in the difficult place because I refused to go back to restaurant work. So I'm left in this limbo of feeling unemployable, missing my support group, and wondering if it was worth the bother?
TL:DR
White flag
“Shedding skin, succumb defeat. This machine is obsolete” — Nine Inch Nails
Firstly; DEFINITELY WORTH THE BOTHER!  So there was a LOT of trepidation surrounding this decision to move out here but I had lots of people tell me that I should do it regardless and I agreed. I can say that this move out here was completely out of left field for my usual M.O. and that excited the hell out of me. It also scared the hell out of me but the excitement won out. And New York City did not disappoint. I've had an absolute blast while I've been out here. But the doubt crept back in and the lack of work makes it pretty clear that I should have waited to try this at a better time of the year, job wise.
And therein lies the rub; Had I "waited" until the "right" time to move out here, I most likely would not have done it. But isn't that what life is? A series of "should I or shouldn't I" choices that we either spend too much time weighing or brashly give a middle finger to and dive headfirst. This time I opted for diving in and don't regret that decision, even if the pool didn't have quite enough water.
So now I'm left holding a hand that isn't strong enough to win the pot and I can't bluff my way out. So I'm folding. I've been writing this post for a few moments now and once it's finished, I'm heading over to Delta to buy a ticket back. I pains me to type that but I also now realize that I left a very strong support system to attempt this and at this point in my life, I need the support more than the independence.
UPDATE: I purchased a ticket to return to Seattle on the 6th of January. I originally thought it would be the Friday but I was too slow on the click so I pushed it to Saturday instead.
So, is this blog done? No, far from it. I'm still going to #liveyourtschüss every day. Just because I'm heading back west doesn't mean I'm going to stop having adventures. In fact, most of my wonderful adventures have happened out west. This means I'll just have to spend a little more money to have pizza at Emily. 😊

by incentive, you mean paid incentive. where do these funds come from?
BNB has its value from the paid incentive. what happens to it the moment those incentives are gone?
is there any ecosystem around BNB coin?
KMD is getting more and more projects that are joining as it allows to jumpstart things and for much less effort to get a fully functioning and independent blockchain.
so because there is no payment required other than the nominal dPoW fees for notarization, there is really no reason not to build on komodo. which means a lot more projects will decide to do this
and if KMD gets just a small percentage of the overall ecosystems value, then this becomes a bigger and bigger value over time. like BTC is the center of a very large ecosystem and that gives it a lot of value, even though it doesnt even pay 5% APR.
so when KMD has a very large ecosystem and is paying 5%, then really, what more is needed

After some discussions on Developmentor's DOTNET list, regarding the use of Windows Authentication in .NET remoting, I figured it should be possible to build a replacement TCP remoting channel that used the SSPI API during the connection phase to accomplish this. So, this is one of the things I'd like to try out in the coming weeks (that is, if I ever get some extra free time).
OTOH, SSPI is one of those APIs that fall under my horrible APIs category [1], so I'm not precisely thrilled about the prospect... but even so, using my WSSPI library should make it much easier.
While I get that time, I'm going through Jonathan Hawking's NamedPipeChannel sample, and waiting on Ingo Rammer's Advanced .NET Remoting book. Damn that's one I really could use right now... thank god it's coming out this week!

SLEEPY HOLLOW A film review by Steve Rhodes Copyright 1999 Steve Rhodes RATING (0 TO ****): ***
Tim Burton's campily creepy SLEEPY HOLLOW has great visuals and Johnny Depp's usual imaginative acting. A fun film, it is light-years better than the schlock horror pictures that played this past Halloween, when this movie should have more appropriately opened.
But first a warning is in order.
No, not about the gore.
The warning is about the script and the miscasting of the female lead. Kevin Yagher's underdeveloped script, based on the famous Washington Irving story, "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," has some good ideas but lacks a cohesive narrative.
Cast opposite Johnny Depp, as Constable Ichabod Crane, is Christina Ricci, as his love interest, Katrina Van Tassel. Ricci, wearing wisps whites and pastel blues, looks wonderful on her large white horse. Everything is fine until she speaks. The script, which takes advantage of none of her signature sarcasm, offers her few opportunities to shine. The result is a bland performance in which there is no chemistry between her and Depp. Basically, to enjoy the show the viewers are required to ignore Ricci and focus exclusively on Depp and on the film's mesmerizing look.
Called from New York City to investigate the macabre murders in the remote village of Sleepy Hollow, Crane takes such a soundly scientific approach to the crimes that he would make Sherlock Holmes proud. Using gadgets of his own invention, he researches the crime scenes and the bodies, which he exhumes. He completely rejects the notion of the frightened villagers that the missing heads of the victims were "taken by the Headless Horseman back to Hell." (With sharp triangular teeth, Christopher Walken, in a cameo, does an hilarious, over-the-top rendition of the Headless Horseman.)
"Murder needs no ghost come from the grave," Crane lectures the assembled, whom he views as a bunch of impressionable country bumpkins. Once he encounters the fiend, however, Crane retreats to the safety of the bedcovers of his bed and whimpers like a schoolboy.
The marvel of Depp's performance is that he encourages us to laugh with him and not at him. With shifty eyes and dramatic gestures, he lets us in on the joke. When he cuts into a tree that splatters blood on him, we're supposed to grimace and then laugh. "It's okay," he seems to be saying to us, "we know you're going to find this funny. Laugh all you want and have a good time."
Ah, and then there are the visuals, which are certainly worth the price of admission. When he pulls the camera back to show the grand vistas, Burton's picture has the grandeur of a Frederick Edwin Church painting of upstate New York where the story is set. The gothic village itself has a wonderfully eerie feel. Emmanuel Lubezki's cinematography features denuded color in some scenes and a strong steel-blue look in others. As the scenes change, "wow" is the most common reaction.
It's fun, it's funny, it looks great and it's got Johnny Depp. What else do you need to know about the movie, anyway?
SLEEPY HOLLOW runs 1:45. It is rated R for graphic horror violence and gore, and for a scene of sexuality and would be fine for most teenagers.

After a short walk through very beautiful gardens they came to the castle and followed Tubekins through the entrance and into a great domed chamber, where he commanded them to be seated.
From the crown which he wore, Betsy had thought this man must be the King of the country they were in, yet after he had seated all the strangers upon benches that were ranged in a semicircle before a high throne, Tubekins bowed humbly before the vacant throne and in a flash became invisible and disappeared.
The hall was an immense place, but there seemed to be no one in it beside themselves. Presently, however, they heard a low cough near them, and here and there was the faint rustling of a robe and a slight patter as of footsteps. Then suddenly there rang out the clear tone of a bell and at the sound all was changed.
Gazing around the hall in bewilderment they saw that it was filled with hundreds of men and women, all with beautiful faces and staring blue eyes and all wearing scarlet robes and jeweled crowns upon their heads. In fact, these people seemed exact duplicates of Tubekins and it was difficult to find any mark by which to tell them apart.
“My! What a lot of Kings and Queens!” whispered Betsy to Polychrome, who sat beside her and appeared much interested in the scene but not a bit worried.
“It is certainly a strange sight,” was Polychrome’s reply; “but I cannot see how there can be more than one King, or Queen, in any one country, for were these all rulers, no one could tell who was Master.”
One of the Kings who stood near and overheard this remark turned to her and said: “One who is Master of himself is always a King, if only to himself. In this favored land all Kings and Queens are equal, and it is our privilege to bow before one supreme Ruler—the Private Citizen.”
“Who’s he?” inquired Betsy.
As if to answer her, the clear tones of the bell again rang out and instantly there appeared seated in the throne the man who was lord and master of all these royal ones. This fact was evident when with one accord they fell upon their knees and touched their foreheads to the floor.
The Private Citizen was not unlike the others, except that his eyes were black instead of blue and in the centers of the black irises glowed red sparks that seemed like coals of fire. But his features were very beautiful and dignified and his manner composed and stately. Instead of the prevalent scarlet robe, he wore one of white, and the same dragon’s head that decorated the others was embroidered upon its bosom.
“What charge lies against these people, Tubekins?” he asked in quiet, even tones.
“They came through the forbidden Tube, O Mighty Citizen,” was the reply.
“You see, it was this way,” said Betsy. “We were marching to the Nome King, to conquer him and set Shaggy’s brother free, when on a sudden—”
“Who are you?” demanded the Private Citizen sternly.
“Me? Oh, I’m Betsy Bobbin, and—”
“Who is the leader of this party?” asked the Citizen.
“Sir, I am Queen Ann of Oogaboo, and—”
“Then keep quiet,” said the Citizen. “Who is the leader?”
No one answered for a moment. Then General Bunn stood up.
“Sit down!” commanded the Citizen. “I can see that sixteen of you are merely officers, and of no account.”
“But we have an Army,” said General Clock, blusteringly, for he didn’t like to be told he was of no account.
“Where is your Army?” asked the Citizen.
“It’s me,” said Tik-Tok, his voice sounding a little rusty. “I’m the on-ly Pri-vate Sol-dier in the par-ty.”
Hearing this, the Citizen rose and bowed respectfully to the Clockwork Man.
“Pardon me for not realizing your importance before,” said he. “Will you oblige me by taking a seat beside me on my throne?”
Tik-Tok rose and walked over to the throne, all the Kings and Queens making way for him. Then with clanking steps he mounted the platform and sat on the broad seat beside the Citizen.
Ann was greatly provoked at this mark of favor shown to the humble Clockwork Man, but Shaggy seemed much pleased that his old friend’s importance had been recognized by the ruler of this remarkable country. The Citizen now began to question Tik-Tok, who told in his mechanical voice about Shaggy’s quest of his lost brother, and how Ozma of Oz had sent the Clockwork Man to assist him, and how they had fallen in with Queen Ann and her people from Oogaboo. Also he told how Betsy and Hank and Polychrome and the Rose Princess had happened to join their party.
“And you intended to conquer Ruggedo, the Metal Monarch and King of the Nomes?” asked the Citizen.
“Yes. That seemed the on-ly thing for us to do,” was Tik-Tok’s reply. “But he was too cle-ver for us. When we got close to his cav-ern he made our path lead to the Tube, and made the op-en-ing in-vis-i-ble, so that we all fell in-to it be-fore we knew it was there. It was an eas-y way to get rid of us and now Rug-gedo is safe and we are far a-way in a strange land.”
The Citizen was silent a moment and seemed to be thinking. Then he said:
“Most noble Private Soldier, I must inform you that by the laws of our country anyone who comes through the Forbidden Tube must be tortured for nine days and ten nights and then thrown back into the Tube. But it is wise to disregard laws when they conflict with justice, and it seems that you and your followers did not disobey our laws willingly, being forced into the Tube by Ruggedo. Therefore the Nome King is alone to blame, and he alone must be punished.”
“That suits me,” said Tik-Tok. “But Rug-ge-do is on the o-ther side of the world where he is a-way out of your reach.”
The Citizen drew himself up proudly.
“Do you imagine anything in the world or upon it can be out of the reach of the Great Jinjin?” he asked.
“Oh! Are you, then, the Great Jinjin?” inquired Tik-Tok.
“I am.”
“Then your name is Ti-ti-ti-Hoo-choo?”
“It is.”
Queen Ann gave a scream and began to tremble. Shaggy was so disturbed that he took out a handkerchief and wiped the perspiration from his brow. Polychrome looked sober and uneasy for the first time, while Files put his arms around the Rose Princess as if to protect her. As for the officers, the name of the great Jinjin set them moaning and weeping at a great rate and every one fell upon his knees before the throne, begging for mercy. Betsy was worried at seeing her companions so disturbed, but did not know what it was all about. Only Tik-Tok was unmoved at the discovery.
“Then,” said he, “if you are Ti-ti-ti-Hoo-choo, and think Rug-ge-do is to blame, I am sure that some-thing strange will hap-pen to the King of the Nomes.”
“I wonder what ‘twill be,” said Betsy.
The Private Citizen—otherwise known as Tititi-Hoochoo, the Great Jinjin—looked at the little girl steadily.
“I will presently decide what is to happen to Ruggedo,” said he in a hard, stern voice. Then, turning to the throng of Kings and Queens, he continued: “Tik-Tok has spoken truly, for his machinery will not allow him to lie, nor will it allow his thoughts to think falsely. Therefore these people are not our enemies and must be treated with consideration and justice. Take them to your palaces and entertain them as guests until to-morrow, when I command that they be brought again to my Residence. By then I shall have formed my plans.”
No sooner had Tititi-Hoochoo spoken than he disappeared from sight. Immediately after, most of the Kings and Queens likewise disappeared. But several of them remained visible and approached the strangers with great respect. One of the lovely Queens said to Betsy:
“I trust you will honor me by being my guest. I am Erma, Queen of Light.”
“May Hank come with me?” asked the girl.
“The King of Animals will care for your mule,” was the reply. “But do not fear for him, for he will be treated royally. All of your party will be reunited on the morrow.”
“I—I’d like to have someone with me,” said Betsy, pleadingly.
Queen Erma looked around and smiled upon Polychrome.
“Will the Rainbow’s Daughter be an agreeable companion?” she asked.
“Oh, yes!” exclaimed the girl.
So Polychrome and Betsy became guests of the Queen of Light, while other beautiful Kings and Queens took charge of the others of the party.
The two girls followed Erma out of the hall and through the gardens of the Residence to a village of pretty dwellings. None of these was so large or imposing as the castle of the Private Citizen, but all were handsome enough to be called palaces—as, in fact, they really were.

This is a site for puzzles that can be solved in different ways, with varying goals. My general approach is to start with a puzzle game I enjoy, rewrite it, and extend it to suit my own interest.
The online playable versions are older versions of the iPad aps.
| Shisen is a mahjong variant that appears to have been popular as an arcade game in Japan in the 1980s. To remove a pair of matching tiles, they must be able to be connected by no more than three vertical and horizontal lines. | play_shisen | iPad App | free App |
| Hexies is a minesweeper game played on a hexagonal grid. | play_hexies | iPad App | free App |
| Trinograms is a triangular version of nonograms, also known as pictograms (although the pictures in this version are randomly generated). The numbers on the stripes next to the grid indicate how many sequential black triangles will be found in that row or diagonal column. | play_trinograms | iPad App | free App |
| Bubble is a bubble shooter without the shooting. Place bubbles to eliminate groups of three or more until all the spaces are empty. | play_bubble | iPad App | free App |

An alternative Python unit test framework
This project is maintained by Auzzy
PyInq is a Python unit testing framework created in the tradition of the xUnit family. Specifically, it draws its influence from JUnit and PyUnit (unittest).
The bulk of PyInq's functionality was influenced by PyUnit. However, Java coders will recogize the use of decorators for test identification from JUnit 4. Selenium users will recogize PyInq's suite of "eval" functions; they were influenced by Selenium's "verify" functions.
I have not yet had the chance to write up much documentation. It's high on my TODO list as undocumented projects can be aggrevating to work with. I intend to produce a basic guide to using PyInq, as well as code comments and docstrings.
For now, there is basic documentation in the download. In the docs folder, there is a file called "reference.txt". This assumes knowledge of unit test frameworks, and serves as a basic reference for what PyInq includes, and how to use it. The other is a directory called examples, which contains a number of tests that exercise various aspects of PyInq. I've tried to name them in a straightforward manner to enable them to giude your usage of this package.
Simply run the code as is to try any of these examples for youself
A single module level test:
from pyinq.asserts import *
from pyinq.tags import *
@test
def atest():
assert_true(True)
Test expecting an error:
from pyinq.asserts import *
from pyinq.tags import *
@test(expected=ValueError)
def tester():
assert_equal(int("4.0"),4)
Using an instance variable::
from pyinq.asserts import *
from pyinq.tags import *
@testClass
class Class1:
@before
def setup():
this.num = 4
@test
def test():
assert_equal(this.num,4)
this.num += 1
@after
def teardown():
assert_equal(this.num,5)
unittest basic example::
from pyinq.asserts import *
from pyinq.tags import *
import random
@testClass
class TestSequenceFunctions:
@before
def setUp():
this.seq = range(10)
@test
def test_shuffle():
# make sure the shuffled TestSequenceFunctions.sequence does not lose any elements
random.shuffle(this.seq)
this.seq.sort()
assert_equal(this.seq, range(10))
# should raise an exception for an immutable TestSequenceFunctions.sequence
assert_raises(TypeError, random.shuffle, (1,2,3))
@test
def test_choice():
element = random.choice(this.seq)
assert_true(element in this.seq)
@test
def test_sample():
assert_raises(ValueError, random.sample, this.seq, 20)
for element in random.sample(this.seq, 5):
assert_in(element,this.seq)
If you have any questions or comments, find any bugs, or wish to make any feature requests, shoot me an email at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>I am especially hoping to receive bug reports, for although I am unaware of any bugs, fresh sets of eyes have a better chance of finding what I missed.
Also, I will be setting up a separate web page and public GitHub repo for this project very soon. I will post those links here once they are ready.
