Once we found our data sets from Kaggle on Rolling Stone Top 500 Songs of All Time and Spotify Tracks DB, we had to process the data using python to combine the data sets. We used the python package pandas to read the csv files and then used the re package to remove any special characters. The songs were listed with different capitalization, spacing, and wording between the data sets to reference the same song. So, we took out spaces, made all letters lowercase, and checked for the word "remastered" appended to the end of each song to identify 442 song matches common to the two data sets.
Low Fidelity Prototype: We looked through the different attributes of the data and decided on which we found most interesting. We then sketched out different visualization ideas that we had for these different attributes and went through a selection process of which visualizations would most help the user decide if modern music sucks or not. We had to then rework the data to be workable with what we wanted to portray with these visualizations.
High Fidelity Prototype: Once the data was reworked to be more usable, we each took on a visualization. We made sure to organize the visualizations so that they could be compared by decade. We first represent the overall comparison of the most popular songs; then we show the producers of these popular songs before going deeper into the actual features of the songs (going from large to small scale).
User Review: There were many comments on the scrolling ability of the visualizations from all the users which we fixed by switching the site from a vertical scroll to a horizontal. Simplification was another suggestion we recieved as well as more explanation of the visualizations themselves. With the change to Horizontal scrolling we also stripped the amount of items on each page as well as changed the colors to further simplify while also making the site easier to go through.

We know what a computer looks like. It usually has a keyboard, monitor, CPU (Central Processing Unit), printer, and a mouse. These types of computers, like the Mac or PC, are primarily designed to communicate (or “interface”) with humans.
There are also small computers all around,quietly running programs and quietly doing calculations. These computers are in your car, on the Space Shuttle, a small toy, and maybe even inside your refrigerator.
It has built in "I/O" (input/output) capabilities. So it can read and write digital and analog values/states, and connect directly to the "real world". A microcontroller, unlike a microprocessor can connect directly to switches, buttons, LCD displays, LEDS, relays and serial ports
Microcontrollers are generally used for low to medium complexity, specific tasks in equipment. This contrasts with the powerful, number crunching microprocessors used in PCs which handle a variety of software applications.
Microcontrollers are often used in portable devices which run on batteries, e.g. digital cameras. So they are often low powered with a small current consumption (unlike the heat sinked, fan cooled microprocessor in a desktop computer)
Compared to the microprocessor in a PC, the RAM within a microcontroller can typically range from 4mb down to as little as 1k
The program in a microcontroller is usually stored in EPROM or EEPROM. This is a type of non volatile (program doesn't disappear when the device is turned off) memory which can be continuously wiped and rewritten.
Arduino is an open source physical computing platform based on a simple input/output (I/O) board and
a
development environment that implements the Processing language (www.processing.org).
Arduino
can be used to develop standalone interactive objects or can be connected to software on your
computer
(such as Flash, Processing, NodeJS or Max/MSP). !
The Arduino board is a microcontroller board, which is a small circuit (the board) that contains a whole computer on a small chip (the micro- controller). This computer is at least a thousand times less powerful than the MacBook I’m using to write this, but it’s a lot cheaper and very useful to build interesting devices.
The Arduino design team have placed on this board all of the components that are required for this micro controller to work properly and to communicate with your computer. There are many versions of this board; the one we’ll use throughout this book is the Arduino Uno, which is the simplest one to use and the best one for learning on.
These can be inputs or outputs, which is specified by the sketch you create in the IDE.
These dedicated analogue input pins take analog values (i.e., voltage readings from a sensor) and convert them into a number between 0 and 1023 we’ll look at this next class
These are actually six of the digital pins that can be reprogrammed for analog output we’ll look at this in the next class
These power pins are capable or providing 5.5 volts or 3.3 volts of power. Also there are two pins that are capable of providing ground any components that you attach to the controller.
The USB connector connects the controller to you computer allowing you to program it. The USB connection also provides power.
The power connector allows you to power your controller independently either with a battery or a power supply.
The IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is a program running on your computer that allows you to write sketches for the Arduino board in a simple language modeled after the Processing (www.processing.org) language.
The magic happens when you press the button that uploads the sketch to the board: the code that you
have
written is translated into the C language (which is generally quite hard for a beginner to use),
and
is compiled into a language that the micro controller understands.
This last step is quite important, because it’s where Arduino makes your life easy by
hiding
away as much as possible of the complexities of programming microcontrollers.
This first lesson won't really teach programming the Arduino. It’s meant to introduce you to
building
a basic electrical circuit.
It will also get us prepped for building the rest of the exercises throughout the class.
1 resistor (bands are red,red,violet, gold)
1 resistor (bands are red,red,violet, gold)
3 jumper wires. 2 Long(yellow,green), 1 short(white)
1 breadboard
1 USB Cable
1 Arduino
Solderless Breadboard
Step 1: connect Arduino to computer with USB cable
Step 2: connect one side green wire to the ground pin(marked GND)
Connect the other side of the green wire to the ground strip on the breadboard marked with a minus sign -
Step 3: connect one side of the yellow wire to the 5 volt pin(marked 5V)
Connect the other side of the green wire to the ground strip on the breadboard market with a plus sign +
Step 4: connect one side of the short white to any socket along the red strip
Connect the other side of the short wire to any socket in the row numbered 11
Step 5:Place the resistor on one socket in the strip marked with a negative sign -
Place the other end of the resistor in row 10
Step 6: The LED has a long wire and a short wire place that in the same row as the short white wire #11
Place short end of the LED in the same row as the resistor #10
You should have Light!
An electric circuit is a closed loop where electric current can flow. Electricity flows like water from Ground(GND) to Positive(VCC).
As the current passes though a component such as an LED it causes it to light up.
The Arduino is acting as our battery providing 5 volts of electricity.
An electric circuit is a closed loop where electric current can flow. Electricity flows like water from Ground to Positive Voltage
As the current passes though a component such as an LED it causes it to light up.
5 Volts is too much electricity for the LED and will burn it out!
So before we send electricity to it we need to place a resistor in front of it to limit the electrical current.

This lesson will basically get you up and running using the Arduino software and uploading a sketch to the Arduino board. Once you've completed this step we can continue to the really interesting stuff, which is when we start writing our own sketches!
Once the LED is connected, you need to tell Arduino what to do. This is done through code - that is, a list of instructions that we give the micro- controller to make it do what we want.
Open the Arduino IDE from the Applications folder.
// Example 01 : Blinking LED
int LED = 13; // LED connected to digital pin 13
void setup()
{
pinMode(LED, OUTPUT); // sets the digital
// pin as output
}
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(LED, HIGH); // turns the LED on
delay(1000); // waits for a second
digitalWrite(LED, LOW); // turns the LED off
delay(1000); // waits for a second
}
Arduino expects two functions to exists—one called
setup() and one called loop().
setup() is where you put all the code that you want to execute once at the beginning of your
program
loop() contains the core of your program, which is executed over and over again.
When you power up the board, the code runs; when you want to stop, you just turn it off.

The
preceding title comment just reminds us that this program, Example 01, blinks an LED.
void setup()
This line tells Arduino that the next function will be called setup().
digitalWrite(LED, HIGH); // turns the LED on
As the comment says, digitalWrite() is able to turn on (or off) any pin that has been
configured
as an OUTPUT.
The first argument (in this case, LED) specifies which pin should be turned on or off
(remember
that LED is a constant value that refers to pin 13, so this is the pin that’s switched).
The second argument can turn the pin on (HIGH) or off (LOW).
Imagine that every output pin is a tiny power socket, like the ones you have on the walls of your
apartment. American ones
are 110 V, and Arduino works at a more modest 5 V.
The magic here is when software becomes hardware. When you write digitalWrite(LED, HIGH),
it
turns the output pin to 5 V, and if you connect an LED, it will light up.
So at this point in your code, an instruction in software makes something happen in the
physical
world by controlling the flow of electricity to the pin. Turning on and off the pin at will now let
us
translate these into something more visible for a human being; the LED is our actuator
delay(1000); // wait for a second
Arduino has a very basic structure. Therefore, if
you
want things to happen with a certain regularity, you tell it to sit quietly and do nothing until it
is
time to go to the next step. delay() basically makes the processor sit there and do nothing for the
amount
of milliseconds that you pass as an argument. Milliseconds are thousands of seconds; therefore,
1000
milliseconds equals 1 second. So the LED stays on for one second here.
digitalWrite(LED, LOW); // turns the LED off
This instruction now turns off the LED
that
we previously turned on. Why do we use HIGH and LOW? Well, it’s an old convention in digital
electronics.
HIGH means that the pin is on, and in the case of Arduino, it will be set at 5 V. LOW means 0 V.
You
can also replace these arguments mentally with ON and OFF.
delay(1000); // wait for a second
Here, we delay for another second. The LED will be
off
for one second.
}
This closing curly bracket marks end of the loop function.
Before we move on to the next section, I want you to play with the code. For example, reduce the
amount
of delay, using different numbers for the on and off pulses so that you can see different blinking
patterns.
In particular, you should see what happens when you make the delays very small, but use
different
delays for on and off . . . there is a moment when something strange happens; this “something” will
be
very useful when we learn about somethng called pulse-width modulation.
//Random Delay
//
int LED = 13; // LED connected to// digital pin 13
int i; // Variable to hold our random value
void setup()
{
pinMode(LED, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as
output
}
void loop()
{
i = random(1, 1000); // generate a random value every
loop cycle
digitalWrite(LED, HIGH); // turns the LED on
delay(i); // pause for the duration of variable i
digitalWrite(LED, LOW); // turns the LED off
delay(i); // waits for a second the duration of
variable i
}
/// Blink with for loop
//
int LED = 13; // LED connected to digital pin 13
int i; // Variable to hold our random value
void setup()
{
pinMode(LED, OUTPUT); // sets the digital
// pin as output
}
void loop()
{
// set I to 1; while i is less that 100 increment i by one
for(int i = 1;i <=100; i++){
digitalWrite(LED, HIGH); // turns the LED on
delay(i); // set delay based on the value of i
digitalWrite(LED, LOW); // turns the LED off
delay(i); // set delay based on the value of i
}
}

jstack(1) jstack(1) Name jstack - Stack Trace SYNOPSIS jstack [ option ] pid jstack [ option ] executable core jstack [ option ] [server-id@]remote-hostname-or-IP PARAMETERS Options are mutually exclusive. Option, if used, should follow immedi‐ ately after the command name. See OPTIONS. pid process id for which the stack trace is to be printed. The process must be a Java process. To get a list of Java processes running on a machine, jps(1) may be used. executable Java executable from which the core dump was produced. core core file for which the stack trace is to be printed. remote-hostname-or-IP remote debug server's (see jsadebugd(1)) hostname or IP address. server-id optional unique id, if multiple debug servers are running on the same remote host. DESCRIPTION jstack prints Java stack traces of Java threads for a given Java process or core file or a remote debug server. For each Java frame, the full class name, method name, 'bci' (byte code index) and line number, if available, are printed. With the -m option, jstack prints both Java and native frames of all threads along with the 'pc' (program counter). For each native frame, the closest native symbol to 'pc', if available, is printed. C++ mangled names are not demangled. To demangle C++ names, the output of this command may be piped to c++filt. If the given process is running on a 64-bit VM, you may need to specify the -J-d64 option, e.g.: jstack -J-d64 -m pid NOTE - This utility is unsupported and may or may not be available in future versions of the JDK. In Windows Systems where dbgeng.dll is not present, 'Debugging Tools For Windows' needs to be installed to have these tools working. Also, PATH environment variable should contain the location of jvm.dll used by the target process or the location from which the Crash Dump file was produced. For example, set PATH=<jdk>\jre\bin\client;%PATH% OPTIONS -F Force a stack dump when 'jstack [-l] pid' does not respond. -l Long listing. Prints additional information about locks such as list of owned java.util.concurrent ownable synchronizers @ http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/concur‐ rent/locks/AbstractOwnableSynchronizer.html. -m prints mixed mode (both Java and native C/C++ frames) stack trace. -h prints a help message. -help prints a help message SEE ALSO o pstack(1) o c++filt(1) o jps(1) o jsadebugd(1) KNOWN BUGS Mixed mode stack trace, the -m option, does not work with the remote debug server. 16 Mar 2012 jstack(1)

Welcome to the documentation of run4v.
run4v was originally conceived tu run VASP programs, however it can be used elsewhere.
This class is the main core of the module, each job must instantiate a Job object.
| Parameters: | folder (str) – Where the job should be run and where all dependencies and output should appear. |
|---|
In the case that a run script was given, this function controls that the run script exists.
Get next job
Get previous job
This function runs the job. If ‘execute=False’ then the job will not be run, maybe because you have already run it and you just want to run the next jobs
Change folder after initializing.
This function sets the next job of the current instance and also sets the current instance as the previous job of the “obj”. So the name is misleading regarding the fact that the function does more than setting the next job, it sets the previous job of the “obj” argument.
| Parameters: | obj (Instance of run4v.Job.) – Next job. |
|---|
| Parameters: | obj (Instance of run4v.Job.) – Next job. |
|---|
}
This class is the base class for all sorts of files which should be generated through a python script.
| Parameters: |
|
|---|
Generate the file.
| Parameters: | path (str) – Possibility to override the path attribute of the class, if given, it resets the path of the file. |
|---|
Checks for the existence of the generated file, useful for scripting and debugging.
This function should be overriden by child classes. It returns the contents that should be written to the generated file. Here if raw_content is provided it will simply return the raw_content.
Simply remove the generated file.
Verbose printing, it prints something if verbose is activated.
| Parameters: | something (all) – Something to print. |
|---|


Introduction
The goal of Explanations is to try to allow people to play with fun parts of computers. Graphics, compression, audio.  Why bother giving a diagram when I give you an inspector and let you poke at things yourself!
It takes me a long time to write an Explanation, so these might not come out as quick as you like, but I do plan on writing these as long as I'm able to. I also don't claim to be the world's expert on most everything I'm writing about. I might be wrong! Please let me know by email or through a GitHub issue.
Previously, this series was known as "Xplain" and was more focused on the X11 window system and protocol, but I've been slowly moving towards anything that interests me, and I'm hijacking this project for it since I really like the format and style I've developed. The code for every single one of these demos is available in the GitHub repo, and I do try to comment heavily and go into even more depth there! Play with the code! Use it for one of your own projects! It's all MIT/X11 licensed. I very much appreciate followup questions and any sort of feedback through the links mentioned above.
Table of Contents
Credit where credit's due
The source code to this article and all demos is freely available under the MIT/X11 license on GitHub for inspection.
Some of the more tricky code in there has been ported from the Xorg X server itself along with its helper library, pixman.
Some of the images in this article have been adapted from other images on the web. The two kitten images in the Expose event demo were adapted from photos taken by quatre mains and fazen, shared under a CC-BY-2.0 license. Thanks to [placekitten] for finding these images for me.
The cursors and icons used in the demos have been adapted GNOME's default theme, Adwaita. Some of the icons in the inspector have been adapted from the GNOME Art Libre Symbolic Icon Theme, shared under the LGPL and CC-BY-SA-3.0. All rights reserved.
Special thanks to Keith Packard, Alan Coopersmith, Adam Jackson, Peter Hutterer, and Owen Taylor for digging into the source code, protocols, mailing lists and other archives to help me figure out some of the more odd and hairier X11 semantics when I was working on this. Sorry for driving you guys crazy with this project.
Thanks to my friends and colleagues who have sent me feedback on work-in-progress articles, and to anybody who has sent me a pull request. You guys rock.


How Can I Tell If I Have HIV?
You cannot rely on symptoms to tell whether you have HIV. The only way to know for sure if you have HIV is to get tested. Knowing your status is important because it helps you make healthy decisions to prevent getting or transmitting HIV.
The symptoms of HIV vary, depending on the individual and what stage of the disease you are in: the early stage, the clinical latency stage, or AIDS (the late stage of HIV infection). Below are the symptoms that some individuals may experience in these three stages. Not all individuals will experience these symptoms.
Early Stage Of HIV
Some people may experience a flu-like illness within 2-4 weeks after HIV infection. But some people may not feel sick during this stage.
Flu-like symptoms can include:
- Fever
- Chills
- Rash
- Night sweats
- Muscle aches
- Sore throat
- Fatigue
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Mouth ulcers
You should not assume you have HIV just because you have any of these symptoms. Each of these symptoms can be caused by other illnesses. And some people who have HIV do not show any symptoms at all for 10 years or more.
If you think you may have been exposed to HIV, get an HIV test. Most HIV tests detect antibodies (proteins your body makes as a reaction against the presence of HIV), not HIV itself. But it takes a few weeks for your body to produce these antibodies, so if you test too early, you might not get an accurate test result. A new HIV test is available that can detect HIV directly during this early stage of infection. So be sure to let your testing site know if you think you may have been recently infected with HIV.
After you get tested, it’s important to find out the result of your test so you can talk to your health care provider about treatment options if you’re HIV-positive or learn ways to prevent getting HIV if you’re HIV-negative.
You are at high risk of transmitting HIV to others during the early stage of HIV infection, even if you have no symptoms. For this reason, it is very important to take steps to reduce your risk of transmission.
Clinical Latency Stage
After the early stage of HIV infection, the disease moves into a stage called the clinical latency stage (also called “chronic HIV infection”). During this stage, HIV is still active but reproduces at very low levels. People with chronic HIV infection may not have any HIV-related symptoms, or only mild ones.
For people who aren’t taking medicine to treat HIV (called antiretroviral therapy or ART), this period can last a decade or longer, but some may progress through this phase faster. People who are taking medicine to treat HIV the right way, every day may be in this stage for several decades because treatment helps keep the virus in check. (Read more about HIV treatment.)
It’s important to remember that people can still transmit HIV to others during this phase even if they have no symptoms, although people who are on ART and stay virally suppressed (having a very low level of virus in their blood) are much less likely to transmit HIV than those who are not virally suppressed.
Progression to AIDS
If you have HIV and you are not on ART, eventually the virus will weaken your body’s immune system and you will progress to AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), the late stage of HIV infection.
Symptoms can include:
- Rapid weight loss
- Recurring fever or profuse night sweats
- Extreme and unexplained tiredness
- Prolonged swelling of the lymph glands in the armpits, groin, or neck
- Diarrhea that lasts for more than a week
- Sores of the mouth, anus, or genitals
- Pneumonia
- Red, brown, pink, or purplish blotches on or under the skin or inside the mouth, nose, or eyelids
- Memory loss, depression, and other neurologic disorders.
Many of the severe symptoms and illnesses of HIV disease come from the opportunistic infections that occur because your body’s immune system has been damaged. (Read more about opportunistic infections.)


The Webhooks Manager queries the event subscription repository for all webhooks associated with the event and optionally publishes the event based on any event filters.
The Hangfire Webhooks Manager then enqeues each webhook request as an individual background job.
Periodically Hangfire will dequeue events and invoke the callback supplied when the event was enqueued (in this case the Dispatch<TEvent>(webhookUri, event) API). Failures are automatically requeued and retried using exponential backoff. Failures can also be manually requeued if needed.


This is a collection of short scripts (recipes) to do some common things using brandseyer2. You should, for the most part, be able to copy and paste them in to an R file, change a few variables (like the account code and filter), and then run them.
Sometimes you may want to get a clean data set of mentions, and the topics on them. This small script will write out a CSV giving, for each topic on a mention, a row with the mention ID, topic ID, and topic name. It reads all the mentions matching a filter, asking for only the mentions’ IDs and tags. Then, using topics()
, it gets all the topic data for the mentions. Next, it uses dplyr::select()
to choose only some interesting columns to keep. Finaly, it saves the data, using readr::write_csv()
.
library(brandseyer2)
library(dplyr, warn.conflicts = FALSE) # For manipulating tables
library(readr) # For writing CSVs
code <- "BEUB03AA"
filter <- "published inthelast week and brand isorchildof 46334"
mentions_with_topics <- account(code) %>% # Get the account
mentions(filter, select = c(id, tags)) %>% # Ask for the mentions (but only their IDs and tags)
topics() %>% # From the mentions, get specific topics
select(id, topic.id, name) # Select only some interesting columns
write_csv(mentions_with_topics, "topics.csv")
You can modify what columns you’d like kept in your CSV file by modifying the select
line. And this is what some of the data looks like:
#> # A tibble: 2,475 x 3
#> id topic.id name
#> <chr> <int> <chr>
#> 1 46334-8933… 70331 Comparing (brands to brands) or comparing (brands…
#> 2 46334-8933… 69873 Ethics or reputation
#> 3 46334-8933… 71303 Transport experience
#> 4 46334-8933… 71359 Drivers
#> 5 46334-8933… 69878 Accusations of unethical behavior
#> 6 46334-8933… 69873 Ethics or reputation
#> 7 46334-8933… 70331 Comparing (brands to brands) or comparing (brands…
#> 8 46334-8933… 69873 Ethics or reputation
#> 9 46334-8933… 70331 Comparing (brands to brands) or comparing (brands…
#> 10 46334-8933… 69873 Ethics or reputation
#> # ... with 2,465 more rows
This is an extension of the recipe for finding topics on a mention. It uses dplyr to calculate the average number of mentions on a topic.
library(brandseyer2)
library(dplyr)
library(readr)
code <- "BEUB03AA"
filter <- "published inthelast week and brand isorchildof 46334"
mentions_with_topics <- account(code) %>% # Get the account
mentions(filter, select = c(id, tags)) %>% # Ask for the mentions (but only their IDs and tags)
topics() %>% # From the mentions, get specific topics
select(id, topic.id, name)
topics_per_mention <- mentions_with_topics %>%
group_by(id) %>% # For each mention
summarise(count = n()) # Count the number of mentions
average_topics <- sum(topics_per_mention$count) / nrow(topics_per_mention)
message(glue::glue("The average number of topics per mention is {round(average_topics, 2)}"))
BrandsEye topics can belong to more than one topic tree, and so can have more than one parent. When wanting to find the parent of a topic, you need to choose a topic tree to do this from. The easiest way to find topic trees is to use the topic_trees()
function, like so:
library(brandseyer2)
library(dplyr)
account("TEST01AA") %>%
topic_trees() %>%
select(id, name)
#> # A tibble: 1 x 2
#> id name
#> <int> <chr>
#> 1 1001 Tree of Topics
library(brandseyer2)
library(dplyr)
account("TEST01AA") %>%
tags() %>%
with_tag_parents(1001) %>%
filter(namespace == 'topic') %>%
arrange(desc(is_parent), name)
This produces a nicely sorted table of topics and parents, all in relation to the given topic tree. Notice that the topic tree itself won’t be in this table, since it is in its own topic_tree namespace.
#> # A tibble: 3 x 3
#> # Rowwise:
#> id name parent
#> <int> <chr> <dbl>
#> 1 10 Parent topic 1001
#> 2 11 Child topic 1 10
#> 3 12 Child topic 2 10

Are we there..??? Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick Nearly There ....
Price: Rs. 299
Its a good pick which I don't regret because even though its has those minute shimmer particles, I can easily carry this off at night without any gloss. Makes the lips look more fuller and the formulae is non drying as other Maybelline color sensational lip colors.
This shade will suit fair skin tones, else it can easily wash out. Can't make out any smell out of it, which is good. Non drying but I still use slight balm beneath it. Lasts me good 2-3 hours but can't survive the meal sadly. Doesn't settle into fine lines and fades evenly.
The camera could not pick up the actual color, in real its more natural than the bronze look it gives.
Maybelline's Color Sensational Lipsticks have become one of my favorite budget buys, I already have 4 shades from the range and equally love all of them.. no partiality whatsoever.
Which is your favorite Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick shade ?

- The original breed colours/varieties are black, white, buff, blue and splash
The popular Orpington breed originated from the town of Orpington, Kent, in south-east England, where the original black Orpington was bred by William Cook in 1886. (Mr Cook also created the Orpington duck breed). Mr Cook crossed Minorcas, Langshans and Plymouth Rocks to create a new hybrid breed, from which he selected to breed a black bird, that would also exhibit well, by hiding the dirt and soot of London.
The breed was shown in Madison Square Gardens in 1895 and its popularity soared. Its large size and soft appearance together with its beautiful colours make it very attractive breed and as such its popularity has grown as a show bird rather than a utility breed. Hens are fairly often broody and are good mothers. Although rather heavy, they are able to fly small distances but rarely do so.
The original breed colours/varieties are black, white, buff, blue and splash. Although there are many additional varieties recognised throughout the world, for example the Jubilee Orpington, only the original colours are recognised by the American Standard, the Buff being the most common colour. In the beginning of the twentieth century, Herman Kuhn of Germany developed a Bantam variety of Orpingtons and the Bantam retains the appearance of the LF Orpingtons, but in a smaller size. There is a large variety of colours in the Bantam version, including black, blue laced, white, buff, red, buff black laced, barred, buff Columbian, and birchen.

Private Packages for Organizations
Today, npm released a set of features that I’m really excited about: Private Packages for Organizations.
This release allows teams to use private npm packages more effectively. It’s intended for businesses that manage developer teams, with varying permissions and multiple projects.
You can read the official announcement, and learn more about the product on our website.
A big part of the motivation to start a company around this project was that people using npm at work wanted to be able to manage teams and control access to private code. We got a lot of feedback from the early adopters of private packages for individuals, and even more from our beta testers who’ve been banging on this stuff for the last few months as it’s come together.
The team at npm has worked hard on this release, and we look forward to feedback and suggestions from the community. Now that it’s live, we’ll be continuing to improve and polish it as we see how more people use it. Contact us and tell us how we’re doing :)


Does your mail server check DANE when sending email? (why?)
Send an email to these addresses (click to copy):
Or copy by hand:
Your mail server will probably keep trying to deliver mail it could not deliver immediately. You could receive several messages about this in the next few days. In particular, if you pass all three tests you will receive messages that your mail server could not reach wrong.havedane.net.
Check whether your mail server supports incoming DANE & STARTTLS at internet.nl.

From: Miss Stephean Lawrence
Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire
Dear,
It is my pleasure to write you after much consideration since telephone communication can not be suitable enough to communicate to you at first.I am Miss Stephean Lawrence the only doughter of late Mr Christopher Lawrence of Sierra-Leone (SL) I am 24 years of age. My late father was limited liability in Cocoa and Gold merchant in Sierra-Leone before his untimely death. After his business trip to Abidjan-Cote d'Ivoire,to negociate on a cocoa and gold business he wanted to invest in Abidjan - Cote d'Ivoire.
A Week after he came back from Abidjan, he got an accidente with my mother of which my mother died instantly but my father died after five days in a private hospital on that faithful afternoon. I didn't know that my father was going to leave me after I had lost my mother.
But before he gave up the ghost, it was as if he knew he was going to die. He my father, MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE he disclosed to me that he deposited sum of $9.7,000,000,00 US Dollars (NINE MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS) in a Bank here in Abidjan- Cote d'ivoire.
That the money was meant for his cocoa and Gold company he wanted to establish in Abidjan - Cote d'Ivoire though, He single handed me the deposit certificate and instructed me to seek for a reliable and trust worthy business partner for my life time investment abroad. Now I have succeded in locating the bank here in Abidjan- Cote d'ivoire and also confirmed the bank with most honest and confidentiality.
Now I am soliciting for your assistance to help me lift this money out from Abidjan to your safe account abroad so that we should invest it in any meaningful lucrative business in your country because this is my only hope in life.
Awaiting anxiously to hear from you so that we can discuss the modalities of this transaction. Please kindly contact me immediately for more discussion.
Please don't hesitate to send me a message.Thanks for your kind attention. Please contacts me true this email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Yours sincerely
Miss Stephean Lawrence


Monitor the status of your Server
Depending on how you created your Kitura server you may already have metrics enabled.
What is Application Metrics for Swift?
Application Metrics for Swift instruments the Swift runtime for performance monitoring. The monitoring data is provided back to the user either programatically via an API, or visually with the included embedded dashboard.
This guide will show you how to set up the embedded dashboard to view monitoring data. It then describes how to provide a Prometheus endpoint and how to collect metrics from your Swift application using the REST API.
Application Metrics for Swift provides the following built-in data collection sources:
| Source | Description |
|---|---|
| Environment | Machine and runtime environment information |
| CPU | Process and system CPU |
| Memory | Process and system memory usage |
| HTTP | HTTP metric information |
Step 1: Add Application Metrics for Swift to your project
To use Application Metrics for Swift from your server, we need to add SwiftMetrics to our dependencies.
If you don't have a server, follow our Create a server guide.
Import the base Application Metrics for Swift library into your project:
import SwiftMetrics
Import the Application Metrics for Swift dashboard:
import SwiftMetricsDash
Step 2: Initialize Application Metrics for Swift
Create an instance of SwiftMetrics:
let sm = try SwiftMetrics()
Use this SwiftMetrics instance to initialize the dashboard:
let smd = try SwiftMetricsDash(swiftMetricsInstance : sm)
When you initialize a SwiftMetricsDash with just a SwiftMetrics instance, a Kitura server will be started that will serve the dashboard at localhost:8080/swiftmetrics-dash. If we only want to use a single interface, such as the dashboard, then this is fine. However if we add a second, for example a Prometheus endpoint, they will try to create servers on the same port and will conflict with each other.
Next we will show you how to create and pass a Router object to the initializer, so that multiple types of monitoring can coexist.
Step 3: Using Application Metrics for Swift with a router
You can pass an existing Router instance to the SwiftMetricsDash initializer and it will use this router to serve the dashboard. If you don't have a Router, you can create one as follows:
var router = Router()
SwiftMetricsDash will then add its dashboard's endpoint to the provided router:
let smd = try SwiftMetricsDash(swiftMetricsInstance: sm, endpoint: router)
You can add multiple monitoring interfaces to the same router and they will all be served together.
You can now view our dashboard by starting the router on a Kitura server:
Kitura.addHTTPServer(onPort: 8080, with: router)
Kitura.run()
Once the server is running, go to localhost:8080/swiftmetrics-dash.
Step 4: Add Prometheus support
To use Application Metrics for Swift to provide a Prometheus endpoint, you must include the SwiftMetricsPrometheus module in your application:
import SwiftMetrics
import SwiftMetricsPrometheus
As above, we need to create an instance of SwiftMetrics:
let sm = try SwiftMetrics()
Use this SwiftMetrics instance and your Router object to initialize Prometheus:
let smp = try SwiftMetricsPrometheus(swiftMetricsInstance: sm, endpoint: router)
By default, SwiftMetricsPrometheus will provide the Prometheus endpoint under localhost:8080/metrics.
Step 5: Add REST API support
The Application Metrics for Swift REST API enables the collection of metrics from the running Swift application. The API context root will be the server's default endpoint plus "/swiftmetrics" e.g. localhost:8080/swiftmetrics.
To enable the REST API in your program, you must include the SwiftMetricsREST module in your application:
import SwiftMetrics
import SwiftMetricsREST
As above, we need to create an instance of SwiftMetrics:
let sm = try SwiftMetrics()
Use this SwiftMetrics instance and your Router object to initialize your REST API:
let smr = try SwiftMetricsREST(swiftMetricsInstance: sm, endpoint: router)
Metrics are accumulated in a collection. The start time of the metrics accumulation is from either, creation of the collection POST <context_root>/api/v1/collections, or, from the time of a clear request PUT <context_root>/api/v1/collection/{id}.
First you need to create a new metrics collection. Metrics are recorded from the point of the creation of the collection. To create a collection you can use curl as follows:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/swiftmetrics/api/v1/collections
This will return the URI for your collection:
"uri" : "collections\/0"
Metrics can now be retrieved from the collection at whatever intervals you choose using GET as follows:
curl -X GET http://localhost:8080/swiftmetrics/api/v1/collections/0
Metrics are returned in JSON format for processing. You can use PUT to clear the metrics if required.
Metrics can be deleted using DELETE as follows:
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8080/swiftmetrics/api/v1/collections/0
For more information about how to use the REST API and the available collection operations see the documentation.

Why do we use Git over Mercurial or Bazzar?
Even by command line tool standards Git fails at consistency
git branch -D <branch_name> git remote remove <remote_name>
This is probably Git's main advantage over other DVCSs but it is underutilised. Using Git's powerful and fast branching capabilities we can create robust workflows
The seminal work on this is probably Vincent Driessen's "A successful Git branching model" http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/
This workflow is suitable for large open source projects with many contributors but is probably too complex for a small agile company like Rabid.
Streamlining the workflow allows us to keep rapid agile development while maintaining structure and accountability.

It's hard to keep up with social media. Even a social media expert may miss a friend's post or event invite. There are now social media tools that make posting and tracking social media easier. However, these tools may not solve all of our problems. Numerous changes to social media networks including the changes to APIs make it difficult for developers to make updates to applications. A program for multiple programs is not always the solution. But, for now it may be the best.
Problems with social media in 2014:
Solution
Use one social media management tool as your hub or pick a favorite network. The former allows you to stayed connected to all your friends on all your networks, but it may be overwhelming. The latter is easiest, but you may miss that special moment on another network. I personally have a favorite network and use a social media management tool for business and connections.
Most popular social media management tools (with pros and cons):
I don't recommend social media management tools for light social media users because some are more complex than the social media networks.

We are a team of web developers, data scientists, researchers, and educators passionate about solving the problems homeless people face in Portland, Oregon.
Our mission is three-fold, we are using technology to:
- Connect people both inside and outside of shelters to resources
- Organize a network of shelter employees, volunteers, and resource providers
- Heighten public consciousness about this escalating problem
How are we doing this?
We are creating an interactive, user-friendly, and open-source web platform, fit for use on mobile.
Features include:
- Real-time shelter bed availabilities, in addition to a comprehensive list of Portland’s shelter, food, clothing and medical resources, viewable as a map centered on the users current location.
- Allow shelters at capacity to check neighboring shelters simultaneously for backup relief, as well as send out push notifications to an extended family of aid workers and volunteers. A live feed on the app will display resource updates and requests.
- Streamline the intake processes at understaffed shelters, so providers can spend less time checking guests in and more time developing caring, trusting relationships.
- Track resource requests and deliveries, providing a broader statistical picture of homelessness in the Portland metro area. We know far more about the people inside shelters than we do about those left out of them. Helping those on the fringes will provide a more comprehensive understanding of homelessness in our community.


pydrake.geometry.render¶
Local bindings for drake::geometry::render
-
class
pydrake.geometry.render.
CameraProperties
¶ The intrinsic properties for a render camera. The render system uses a reduced set of intrinsic parameters by making some simplifying assumptions:
- Zero skew coefficient between the x- and y-axes.
- The camera’s principal point lies in the center of the image.
The focal length is inferred by the sensor format (width and height) and the field of view along the y-axis.
-
__init__
(self: pydrake.geometry.render.CameraProperties, width: int, height: int, fov_y: float, renderer_name: str) → None¶
-
fov_y
¶ The camera’s vertical field of view (in radians).
-
height
¶ The height of the image (in pixels) to be rendered.
-
renderer_name
¶ The name of the renderer to use.
-
width
¶ The width of the image (in pixels) to be rendered.
-
class
pydrake.geometry.render.
DepthCameraProperties
¶ Bases:
pydrake.geometry.render.CameraProperties
The intrinsic properties for a render depth camera. Consists of all of the intrinsic properties of the render camera but extended with additional depth-specific parameters.

CameraProperties
-
__init__
(self: pydrake.geometry.render.DepthCameraProperties, width: int, height: int, fov_y: float, renderer_name: str, z_near: float, z_far: float) → None¶
-
z_far
¶ The maximum reportable depth value. All surfaces farther than this distance, saturate to this value.
-
z_near
¶ The minimum reportable depth value. All surfaces closer than this distance, saturate to this value.

-
pydrake.geometry.render.
MakeRenderEngineGl
() → pydrake.geometry.render.RenderEngine¶ Constructs a RenderEngine implementation which uses a purely OpenGL renderer. The engine only works under Ubuntu. If called on a Mac, it will produce a “dummy” implementation.
-
pydrake.geometry.render.
MakeRenderEngineVtk
(params: pydrake.geometry.render.RenderEngineVtkParams) → pydrake.geometry.render.RenderEngine¶ Constructs a RenderEngine implementation which uses a VTK-based OpenGL renderer.
This RenderEngine implementation looks for the following properties when registering visual geometry, categorized by rendered image type.
RGB images
Group name | Property Name | Required | Property Type | PropertyDescription | | :——–: | :———–: | :——: | :————-: | :——————- | | phong | diffuse | no¹ | Eigen::Vector4d | The rgba value of the object surface. | | phong | diffuse_map | no² | std::string | The path to a texture to apply to the geometry.³ |
¹ If no diffuse value is given, a default rgba value will be applied. The default color is a bright orange. This default value can be changed to a different value at construction.
² If no path is specified, or the file cannot be read, the diffuse rgba value is used (or its default). ³ RenderEngineVtk implements a legacy feature for associating textures with meshes. If no
(phong, diffuse_map)
property is provided (or it refers to a file that doesn’t exist), for a mesh named/path/to/mesh.obj
, RenderEngineVtk will search for a file/path/to/mesh.png
(replacing “obj” with “png”). If that image exists, it will be used as a texture on the mesh object.Depth images
No specific properties required.
Label images
Group name | Property Name | Required | Property Type | PropertyDescription | | :——–: | :———–: | :———–: | :————-: | :——————- | | label | id | configurable⁵ | RenderLabel | The label to render into the image. |
⁵ RenderEngineVtk has a default render label value that is applied to any geometry that doesn’t have a (label, id) property at registration. If a value is not explicitly specified, RenderEngineVtk uses RenderLabel::kUnspecified as this default value. It can be explicitly set upon construction. The possible values for this default label and the ramifications of that choice are documented render_engine_default_label “here”.
Geometries accepted by RenderEngineVtk
As documented in RenderEngine::RegisterVisual(), a RenderEngine implementation can use the properties found in the PerceptionProperties to determine whether it accepts a shape provided for registration. RenderEngineVtk makes use of defaults to accept all geometries (assuming the properties pass validation, e.g., render label validation).

¶ Construction parameters for the RenderEngineVtk.
-
__init__
(self: pydrake.geometry.render.RenderEngineVtkParams, **kwargs) → None¶
-
default_diffuse
¶ The (optional) rgba color to apply to the (phong, diffuse) property when none is otherwise specified. Note: currently the alpha channel is unused by RenderEngineVtk.
-
default_label
¶ The (optional) label to apply when none is otherwise specified.
-
-
class
pydrake.geometry.render.
RenderLabel
¶ Class representing object “labels” for rendering.
In a “label image” (see RenderEngine::RenderLabelImage() for details) each pixel value indicates the classification of the object that rendered into that pixel. The RenderLabel class provides that value and one label is associated with each rendered geometry.
The labels could be unique for each geometry, or multiple geometries could all share the same label (becoming indistinguishable in the label image). Ultimately, it is the user’s responsibility to assign labels in a manner that is meaningful for their application.
Reserved labels
There are several RenderLabels that are reserved. They have specific meaning in the context of the rendering ecosystem and are globally available to all applications. They are:
empty
: a pixel with theempty
RenderLabel value indicates that no
geometry rendered to that pixel. Implemented as RenderLabel::kEmpty. -
do not render
: any geometry assigned thedo not render
tag will not be rendered into a label image. This is a clear declaration that a geometry should be omitted. Useful for marking, e.g., glass windows so that the visible geometry behind the glass is what is included in the label image. Implemented as RenderLabel::kDoNotRender. -don't care
: thedon't care
label is intended as a convenient dumping ground. This would be for geometry that should render into the label image, but whose class is irrelevant (e.g., the walls of a room a robot is working in or the background terrain in driving simulation). Implemented as RenderLabel::kDontCare. -unspecified
: a default-constructed RenderLabel has anunspecified
value. Implemented as RenderLabel::kUnspecified.Generally, there is no good reason to assign
empty
orunspecified
labels to a geometry. A RenderEngine implementation is entitled to throw an exception if you attempt to do so.An application can simply instantiate RenderLabel with an arbitrary value. This allows the application to define a particular mapping from render label class to a preferred RenderLabel value. For a label image to be meaningful, every pixel value should admit an unambiguous interpretation. The application bears full responsibility in making sure that a single value is not inadvertently associated with multiple render classes. Finally, a RenderLabel cannot be explicitly constructed with a reserved value – those can only be accessed through the static methods provided.
Note
The RenderLabel class is based on a 16-bit integer. This makes the label image more compact but means there are only, approximately, 32,000 unique RenderLabel values.

A waterfall chart is a form of data visualization that helps in understanding the cumulative effect of sequentially introduced positive or negative values.
I built waterfall charts using d3.js, which is a javascript library that focuses on data visualization.
demo1Ember.js is an open-source client-side JavaScript web application framework based on the model-view-controller (MVC) software architectural pattern. It allows developers to create scalable single-page applications.
Ember dashboard exampleSo I built a function that can transform the current charts to percent view. I wrote it mostly based on d3.
This feature allows users to change value of bars. After the changes, the charts will update and redraw the waterfall graph.
This feature is the most time-consuming one(I have been working on it for more than a week), and I am still improving it. So the work flow is like this: ember component keeps status of what to be shown in the table, and it also has a function("goif" function) that when "If-scenario button" is click, the "goif" function will be called. When it's called, it will dynamically create tables by using javascript DOM. Once users finish changing the values, the component's another function will be called to add a layer view to existing chart to represent the changes.
I have 3 weeks remaining here, so maybe I think I can help to build the basic frames for dashboards. A little like the one we saw here.

Prithvi-2 missile successfully test fired at night
Two Prithvi-2 missiles were test-fired consecutively and both tests met all parameters, the official said from the Interim Test Range at Chandipur.
by PTIIndia successfully testfired on November 20 the indigenously developed nuclear capable Prithvi-2 missile at night as part of a user trial by the Army from a test range off Odisha coast, an official said.
Two Prithvi-2 missiles were test-fired consecutively and both tests met all parameters, the official said from the Interim Test Range at Chandipur.
The trial of the surface-to-surface missile with a strike range of 350 km was carried out from a mobile launcher from launch complex-3 of the ITR between 7 pm to 7.15 pm, he said.
It was a routine trial, he added.
The night time testfire of Prithvi-2 was conducted successfully from the ITR on February 21, 2018.
