My dear good friend, I write to you as the Head of Securities & Investment of First National Bank of South Africa, Cape Town branch with the intention of seeking your assistance in completing a simple in testate transaction. Sometime in June of 2001, a customer of our bank with the South African Mining Corporation, made a timed-Fixed Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$11,250,000.00 [Eleven million, two hundred & fifty thousand US dollars] in my branch. Upon maturity, we sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. Additional inquiries revealed that he died of an automobile accident without making any WILL. There was no next of kin or relations to be traced. The above stated amount is still sitting in our bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to South African Law, at the expiration of 5[five] years, the money will revert to the ownership of the South Africa Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Accordingly, I will like you to stand in as the next of kin so that the fruits of our customers labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple? Would you be kind enough to do it for us? The management of our bank is well in support of this email. There are relatively no risks to you. The money will be paid into your account. You shall return to us 60% and keep 40% to yourself. If you are interested, please reply immediately via the private email address below. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. It is important that you keep this matter private but treat it as urgent requiring your full consideration. This email is not for general solicitation but specifically sent to you for your urgent help and I hope you will be up to the task. Please send your reply using<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Best regards, Mr Peter Bongo.

Your score is:


## Parsed with column specification:
## cols(
## .default = col_double(),
## date = col_date(format = "")
## )
## See spec(...) for full column specifications.
## Parsed with column specification:
## cols(

Write my notes here. Merge disgust and user tables to one table.
Select only rows where sex is either “male” or “female”
Transform from 1 row per subject and 21 questions per row, to one question:subject per row
The new “question” column is n the format “domain#”. Split this into two columns for “domain” and “n”.
Group by domain and user_id to calculate the sum of the 7 items within each domain for each subject.
Now, save your script, restart R, and knit (or run) the whole script!
Or you can do this all in one step by piping. The pipe sends the results of the last function to the first argument of the next function. Remember to remove the first argument of the function when converting from separate functions to piped functions.
data <- left_join(disgust, users, by = "user_id") %>%
filter(sex %in% c("male","female")) %>%
gather(question, score, moral1:pathogen7) %>%
separate(question, c("domain", "q_n"), sep = -1) %>%
group_by(user_id, sex, domain) %>%
summarise(mean_score = mean(score)) %>%
spread(domain, mean_score) %>%
select(user_id, moral:sexual, user_sex = sex)
## Parsed with column specification:
## cols(
## .default = col_double(),
## date = col_date(format = "")
## )
## See spec(...) for full column specifications.
Convert year, month and day columns into a new column called date
with the format “31/02/2019”
Below we create two small tables to practice joining data.
subject <- tibble(
id = seq(1,5),
sex = c("m", "m", NA, "f", "f"),
age = c(19, 22, NA, 19, 18)
)
exp <- tibble(
id = c(2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7),
score = c(10, 18, 21, 23, 9, 11, 11, 12, 3)
)
Just a backwards left join. Only changes column order. Very seldom used.

I've never reset, or had my stats reset.

Go to the add-on manager and disable Better Battlelog.
Then press F5 in Battlelog, If the problem is still there, you have solid proof that it has nothing to do with BBLog. If it for some weird reason should solve the problem you have proof that it is BBLog related
(if it's still there when you re-enable BBLog)

It's a Battlelog problem. Weird thing is it only happens on Chrome for me.

About Michael
Yes, Torontow is my real name.
Stage names abound in this industry, but mine is not one. If I knew what my name originally was before my paternal great-great grandparents fled the Russian Empire in 1905, I’d let you know. But for now, I am Michael Torontow, a proud Canadian actor who has enjoyed a career that spans more than two decades. And while my name causes daily headaches, I love it and wouldn’t change it for the world.

The Lancang river is one of the three parallel rivers in Yunnan province, China. It is also known as the Upper Mekong River. The Lancang river starts at Qinghai province, and flows through Xizang province(Tibet) and Yunnan province. Then the Lancang River becomes the border river between Laos and Burma.
In the 1980s, the Yunnan government asked nationally regonized hydrologists to discover the potential capacity of hydropower development. Later, 14 cascade dams were designed and planned on the Lancang River, including Manwan, Dachaoshan, Xiaowan, and Nuozhadu.(Wang et al, 2014)
China's energy strategy plan outlines a necessary change from fossil fuel to non-fossil fuel. The Chinese energy bureau emphasizes hydropower development in Southwest China. In 2020, the estimated magnitude of hydropower development on Lancang Jiang should reach 76.4% (Yan and Shi 2016).
Definition of large dam:
The International Commission on Large Dams states that a large dam either is at least 15 meters tall from its lowest foundation to its crest, or it stores more than 3 million cubic meters of water with a height between 5 meters and 15 meters.

Red
indicates the non-resettled people have a relatively higher positive feedback(Higher agreement)Displaced people use different coping strategies to adapt their environments. Xi and Hwang (2011) have conducted a coping strategy analysis based on communities displace from around the Three Gorges Dam. They stated that problem-focused coping and emotion-focused coping are two popular strategies.
Problem-focused coping aims to let people earned back a sense of control by solving conflicts through negotiation, while emotion-focused coping aims to let people view their failure and turn it into an opportunity to improve the situation. Based on Questions 15 and 17, it is clear that all surveyed villages have problems. Villagers from the Manwan, Dachaoshan and Nuozhadu resettled communities have more faith in their ability to solve problems by themselves.
Tilt (2015) also reported that after facing income reductions due to failure of agriculture production, people switched their income sources from agriculture to small business, industrial sectors, or movement to urban areas.
Due to the limited sources available to discuss the adaptive resilience of resettled villages, more research into this issue should be done in the future.

Compensation is a key financial tool for resettlements. The purpose of compensation is to improve wealth for resettled people and decrease inequality caused by displacement. Compensation aims to cover the material losses after relocation (Zhang et al., 2015).
In China, the central government provides laws and policies as a standard for compensation designers but the methods of measuring compensation vary between projects. After years of reform, the land management law and compensation policy added more details to the compensation design. Resettled villagers from the four dams considered in this study received different levels of compensation. The difference in compensation affects resettled villagers' financial resource for adaptation in the new community environment. Without sufficient and stable financial supports, resettled villagers are more likely to suffer in a certain level of depression(Wilmsen et al, 2011).

As Cernea (1997) mentioned in the risk and reconstruction model, impoverishment often becomes a problem for resettled villagers, even though they receive compensation. Almost 75% of the population in Yunnan are farmers, so arable agricultural land is a key resource to keep income stable.
Historically, people settled this area because it was easy to irrigate, had fertile soil, and a suitable climate for agriculture. However, when hydropower development rushed into the Lancang River Basin, these agricultural areas also became good locations for hydropower projects. As a result, it is difficult to find new, equally good agricultural areas for relocation (Chen, 2008). Manwan, Dachaoshan and Xiaowan reported a certain level of impoverishment in the resettled communities. Nuozhadu was under construction, so no report is associated with the issue.

Displacement plans normally ignore cultural elements. Cultural diversity increased the negative impact to resettled communities (Chen, 2008).
The major ethnic groups in this study include Han, Yi, and Lahu populations, as well as small populations of Bulang, Dai, Hui, Jingpo, Hani, Wa and Yao people. Different ethnic identities lead to different choices in terms of styles of houses, agricultural products, clothes, customs, and social values. Most people have established their "guanxi" by looking for people with familiar culture.
Meanwhile, older people spent most of their lives practicing traditional agricultural production. It is more difficult for them to adjust than the young people.
Rural agriculture is an important source of income for all villagers. The change of demographics closely connect to and affect working age labor (18 to 60). (Anriquez and Stloukal, 2008)

Paper: "On the Routing-Aware Peering against Network-Eclipse Attacks in Bitcoin", USENIX Security 2021
We critically analyze Routing-Aware Peering (RAP), a desirable long-term solution to the Erebus attack that incorporates routing information to Bitcoin peer selection.
Unfortunately, we find that Erebus adversaries can still exploit a tiny portion of inevitable route inference errors in any RAP implementations to successfully eclipse Bitcoin nodes.
As a practical suggestion to Bitcoin, we propose an integrated defense framework that composes the available Bitcoin protocol tweaks and the optimal RAP implementation to prevent most Erebus attacks.
The recent Erebus attack shows that eclipse attacks with network-Sybil capability against Bitcoin's P2P network are possible.
A few Bitcoin protocol tweaks have been quickly implemented to counter the attacks; yet, they are not complete solutions.
This work focuses on a more fundamental solution called Routing-Aware Peering (RAP).
RAP empowers individual Bitcoin nodes to analyze the routes towards their peers and detect Erebus adversaries, e.g., malicious Internet Service Providers (ISPs).
Unfortunately, we discover a critical weakness of RAP approaches, that is, their infrequent yet inevitable route inference errors.
With such inference errors, Erebus adversaries can still create tens or even hundreds of thousands of Sybil peers and successfully eclipse victim Bitcoin nodes in many cases.
To that end, we propose an integrated defense framework that customizes the available simple protocol tweaks and RAP implementation for individual Bitcoin nodes to prevent most of Erebus attacks from the top-100 large ISPs.
RAP adds a test before establishing new connections in Bitcoin. If an AS appears on the inferred route (AS-path) to the new IP as well as (some or all) routes to existing peers, this IP is rejected. The threshold T (1 <= T <= 10) is an adjustable parameter controlling how strictly the RAP function is operated, i.e., the maximum number of allowed outgoing connections that go through an AS.
Any route inference approach may misidentify a Sybil peer as considering the route to it does not include the attacker. The adversary can use such misidentified Sybil peers in an Erebus attack to circumvent RAP and eclipse a victim Bitcoin node.
RAP must be customized for individual Bitcoin nodes based on their locations. For example, nodes in well-connected ASes can enforce disjoint paths by setting low a threshold T. The optimal threshold is a minimum value that ensures all outgoing connections are established.
Evaluation is done by emulating ~6,000 scenarios of different attacker-victim pairs. See our extended emulation framework of the Bitcoin network stack for more details.
We evaluate all possible tweak combinations from 03 new and 03 existing tweaks to find the best combination that reduces the Erebus attack success rate to 20.86%.
RAP with optimal customizations reduces the attack success rate to 9.39%. This insufficient defense performance is caused by Erebus attacks using misidentified Sybil peers.
Combining RAP and tweaks makes the most effective countermeasure against the Erebus attacks as the attack success rates drop to 3.17%.
[Q1] What is the Erebus attack?
Please refer to the main website of the Erebus attack for more details.
[Q2] What countermeasures have been deployed against the Erebus attack?
As of this writing, three following Bitcoin protocol tweaks have been made to counter the Erebus attack:
(1) AS map,
(2) anchor connections, and
(3) two more outgoing connections.
[Q3] Is there any real-world instance of Erebus attack yet?
We still haven't heard any reports about Erebus attacks on Bitcoin.
However, last years have seen Eclipse attacks against other cryptocurrencies, such as Monero.
[Q4] Why is RAP believed to prevent the Erebus attack?
Because RAP provides each Bitcoin node with a defense capability that is symmetric to Erebus adversaries (i.e., end-to-end routing knowledge).
Moreover, the idea of RAP has been already shown to be highly effective in securing Tor against network-based privacy attacks.
[Q5] Why is there always inference error in RAP?
The only way to get the accurate route is via data-plane active measurements (e.g., using traceroute), which cannot be used in practice because the measurement packets traverse through the adversary network and can be easily manipulated.
The available options include local route estimation and querying the routing table of the home network. Both methods return the control-plane routes, which cannot be the same as the data-plane routes, hence the inevitable inference errors.
[Q6] How does an adversary find the misidentified Sybil peers?
The adversary can send a spoofed packet (e.g., TCP SYN) with a source address p to the victim.
If the adversary observes a reply packet (e.g., TCP SYN/ACK), p can be used as a Sybil peer.
Then p is tested with RAP's route inference to see if RAP misidentifies it.
[Q7] Why does RAP work in Tor but not in Bitcoin?
Tor is not a fully permissionless system like Bitcoin as new relays must have their bandwidth reviewed before joining.
Hence, network attackers cannot attack Tor even when RAP in Tor misidentifies large numbers of Sybil identities.
[Q8] Are there any performance overhead?
To enable RAP, Bitcoin nodes may need to pre-compute the routes to other IP addresses locally or query the home network for them regularly (e.g., every month).
Besides that, the performance overhead for establishing new connections is negligible.
[Q9] Does RAP only apply to Bitcoin?
RAP is not Bitcoin-specific and can be applied to the peer establishment of any other cryptocurrencies.
[Q10] What are the differences between RAP and existing quick defenses (e.g., relays, Tor, VPNs)?
RAP does not hurt the openness and decentralization of Bitcoin.
[Q11] How are Bitcoin tweaks systematically found?
We list all possible steps of the life-cycle of an IP address in the internal data structure of Bitcoin.
By doing so, we find 03 new protocol tweaks in addition to the existing ones.
[Q12] Why don't we simply combine all possible tweaks?
Because the efficacy of these countermeasures is non-monotonic --- activating more countermeasures does not necessarily guarantee higher defense performance in terms of attack success rate. Thus, we need to evaluate many combinations and select a proper set of countermeasures.
[Q13] Is there a performance evaluation of individual tweaks?
Yes, please refer to our paper.
[Q14] Can similar tweaks work for other cryptocurrencies?
Yes if the other cryptocurrency has a similar P2P code as Bitcoin, see a few examples on the Erebus attack website.
They can also potentially be applied to other cryptocurrencies that have similar peer management data structures at a high-level, such as Etherum and Monero.
[Q15] What to do if I am running a Bitcoin node?
You should wait for Bitcoin Core updates, as RAP and other protocol tweaks are being considered by Bitcoin Core developers.
[Q16] Should I consider multi-homed ISPs to host my Bitcoin node?
Yes, it helps to reduce the risk of naturally having a common ISP on your connections and when RAP is deployed.
However, it does not help if a malicious large ISP actively launching Erebus attacks against your node.

You can currently get £500 off dreamy cruise holidays to Asia and Australia
Princess Cruises' Asian Allure & Perth cruises include visits to Singapore, Ho Chi Minh City, Bali and Perth and you can currently bag discounted packages with flights
by Julie Delahaye, https://www.facebook.com/juliedjournoSingapore, Ho Chi Minh City, Bangkok and Bali are all seriously dreamy destinations for the bucket list, but exploring them all isn't always a budget-friendly feat.
However, thanks to Mirror Cruise's latest deal, you could bag a cruise holiday package that includes all of them - with prices from £73pp a night.
That's because the cruise deals website has slashed prices on a 21-night Asian Allure & Perth for Christmas package.
This includes your return flights, two FREE nights in Singapore, a 14-night sailing on board Princess Cruises' Sun Princess, and four FREE nights in Perth including Christmas.
The holiday usually costs £2,049pp but you can currently bag it from £1,549pp on Mirror Cruise - that's a saving of £500pp. (Plus, as it's a 21-night package the price works out at £73pp a night).
The 14-night cruise on board Sun Princess offers up some seriously glamorous ports of call.
Departing from Singapore, you'll get to explore the likes of Phu my (for Ho Chi Minh City), Sihanoukville, Laem Chabang port (less than two hours from Bangkok), Ko Samui, Bali and Fremantle before arriving in Perth for the Christmas period.
Meanwhile the Sun Princess itself makes for quite a luxury holiday setting.
We're talking speciality dining venues (as well as plenty of bars and lounges), a large theatre offering up spectacular stage shows, adults-only haven The Sanctuary, luxury spa treatments, Discovery at SEA enrichment classes, loads of boutique shopping, spa treatments and even Movies Under the Star events.
The price is based on two people sharing an inside cabin but if you do want to splash out you can upgrade to an Oceanview cabin for an extra £299pp.
It's worth noting that the discounted prices are based on a 6th December 2019 departure with return flights from London Heathrow, but don't be disheartened if you can't quite make the offer work for you.
The good news is that Mirror Cruise has heaps more Christmas cruise deals including some shorter itineraries and Christmas market destinations.

Chapter SEVEN Challenges Facing Chinese Diplomacy
Beijing confronts several challenges to achieving its five foreign policy
objectives. Some of them stem from domestic circumstances that constrain
effective statecraft, and others stem from external reactions to
China’s growing capabilities. China’s ability to manage these challenges
will serve as an important indicator of its diplomatic power and
influence.
Domestic Transition and Foreign Policy Decisionmaking
In examining the evolution of China’s international behavior, one consideration
is central: China is experiencing far-reaching changes in
its economic, social, and—to a limited degree—political affairs. The
resulting shifts in the structure and functioning of the Chinese economy,
society, and polity are affecting the substance of its foreign policy
and related decisionmaking processes. The influence of these internal
dynamics on China’s international behavior is substantial and will only
strengthen in the future.
The linkages in China between foreign policy and domestic
social, economic, and political transformation are difficult to specify
and quantify, but they regularly manifest themselves. Some recent
examples include the influence of corporate interest groups and nationalist
sentiments (e.g., national oil companies and anti-Japan nationalist groups) on foreign policymaking.1 Given the brittle legitimacy of the
Communist Party, Chinese leaders can no longer pursue policies with
minimal regard for the views of interest groups (both those within
and those outside the CCP) or public opinion. Popular sentiments can
and have constrained the foreign policy decisions of Chinese leaders,
especially when such popular views on controversial foreign policy
questions are used as instruments by those in the highest levels of the
Chinese Communist Party to jockey for power among a “collective
leadership.” Such policy opportunism for narrow political gain within
the CCP has been common among China’s top leaders for decades—it
may be even more so today given that no individual Chinese leader has
supreme authority.2
In this period of rapid social and economic transition, a related
challenge for Chinese policymakers is how to accurately assess the
domestic costs and benefits of foreign policy decisions. As China’s economic
reforms evolve and Chinese industry and society diversify, it
is becoming increasingly difficult for Chinese policymakers to conduct
cost-benefit types of calculations regarding policy decisions. This occurs because policymakers are often unaware of all the stakeholders
in China (with views on specific foreign policy issues) and their
respective equities, which are constantly changing as well. According
to interviews with Chinese policymakers and scholars, this situation
has significantly complicated the foreign policy decisionmaking process
in China under Hu Jintao and led to Hu’s efforts to improve interagency
coordination on all types of foreign policy-related decisions, at
both the central and provincial levels of government.3
Thus, the scope and pace of China’s domestic transition in the
coming years will continue to create conditions under which foreign
policymaking could appear to foreign observers as uncoordinated, irrational,
unpredictable, and perhaps even erratic. China’s seemingly frenzied
global search for oil supplies in the 2003–2006 time frame serves
as one recent example of this phenomenon.4

These observations are meant to highlight a general and seemingly
growing constraint on China’s pursuit of its international interests. For
foreign analysts of China, these observations provide a lens through
which to evaluate future trends in China’s international behavior by
underscoring the importance of understanding the domestic context of
decisionmaking when making analytic judgments about China’s foreign
policy motives.
Looming Challenges
Beijing confronts several additional challenges to effective pursuit of
its international interests. First, Chinese leaders will likely face rising
expectations from other states, if this is not already occurring. In the
past, China has benefited from low expectation about its behaviors (e.g.,
its response to the 1997 Asian financial crisis), and now expectations of
both China’s involvement and its contributions to global economic and
security affairs are growing.
As China’s global profile grows and, in Asia, as Beijing continues
to position itself as central to economic and security affairs, China’s
neighbors and members of the international community will expect
more of Beijing, especially as it proclaims itself to be a “responsible
major power” engaged in a “peaceful rise.” In the past, China has benefited
from relatively low expectations about its behavior, but now the
pendulum is swinging in the other direction.
It is not clear that China has the intention or capacity to consistently
meet such expectations or that China’s expectations will match
those of its neighbors. Many leaders in Asia are wondering whether
China’s “rise” will really be peaceful. China’s role in regional security
is already the subject of some apprehension among East Asian states,
and its ongoing military modernization may enhance such anxieties.5
Is China willing to contribute “public goods” to the region or make the
types of costly decisions that will help maintain regional stability? As
China’s stakes in regional stability in Asia and other regions grow, it
may make such investments. But Chinese leaders have provided only
limited indications of their willingness to define their national interests
in a way that may sacrifice short-term gains for the sake of mediumto
long-term benefits to regional stability. On the one hand, China’s
increase in development and humanitarian aid is a sign of Beijing’s
desire to make such contributions. Beyond Asia, China’s 2008 military
deployment of three ships to the international antipiracy effort in the
Gulf of Aden is a high-profile example of China trying to act “responsibly”
and contribute to a global security effort. On the other hand, the
business practices of some Chinese state-run companies, especially in
Africa, have generated concerns among regional nations that China is
more self-interested and less supportive of regional development.
Related to the above constraint, to what extent will China’s compliance
with its numerous (and growing) trade and security commitments
raise concerns about its ability to be a trusted rising power?
China’s compliance will be an important indicator of its intentions.
Beijing’s mixed history of meeting its international trade, nonproliferation,
and human rights pledges suggests this will be a problem China
needs to manage.6 China’s interpretation of some of its trade commitments
has already resulted in frictions with ASEAN nations and economic
partners in Africa.7 China’s relations with these and other countries
may be damaged if they begin to question China’s reliability and,
ultimately, its intentions.
Second, China’s approach to the Taiwan question complicates
Beijing’s image. Beijing’s occasionally confrontational and aggressive
approach with other states on Taiwan issues reveals the limits of
its effort to appear moderate and benign. Although this behavior is
less frequent than before, there are several prominent examples of it
in this decade. In 2004, Chinese officials publicly lambasted Singapore’s
incoming Prime Minister Lee Hsien Long, before he had taken
office, about a pending visit to Taiwan and then berated him following
his trip. China then halted all high-level dialogues with Singapore
for two years. In March 2005, a Chinese diplomat publicly demanded
that Australia recuse itself from involvement in a military conflict over
Taiwan, despite Canberra’s commitments to Washington through the
Australia–New Zealand–
United States Security Treaty. China’s passage
of the Anti-Secession Law in spring 2005 contributed to the decisions
in many European capitals to defer an impending EU decision
about lifting its 1989 arms embargo on China. In spring 2006, China’s
then–ambassador to South Korea, Ning Fukuai, publicly advised
South Korean officials to restrict the role of U.S. military forces based
in Korea to the defense of Korea and not to allow them to be used
for regional contingencies (e.g., Taiwan). This sparked Korean sensitivities
to China’s meddling in alliance politics, contributing to current
debates about South Korea’s need to reduce its economic dependence
on China.8
Such actions and statements from Beijing present China’s “rise”
in a less benign light, and regularly remind states of China’s willingness
to engage in coercive diplomacy. Ultimately, any Chinese use of
force (limited or major) to address the Taiwan question would heighten
latent concerns, especially among Southeast Asian nations with a history
of Chinese interference and coercion, that China’s ascension in
regional affairs could threaten their own security interests.
Third, China’s acute governance challenges are directly and indirectly
affecting external perceptions of China, and negatively so.9 China’s
most severe governance problems—such as systemic corruption,
increasing center-periphery tensions, weak environmental controls, a
decrepit health care system, and growing nationalism—hinder Beijing’s
ability to control the multiple actors in China’s large economy
and expansive party-state bureaucracy. These weaknesses constrain
the government’s ability to effectively manage internal problems that
could spill over to China’s neighbors. Beijing’s initially slow and dismissive
response to the spread of SARS in southern China highlighted
to Southeast Asian governments the degree to which China’s public
health crises and environmental problems can threaten their economies
because of Beijing’s negligence. In late 2005, the Chinese government’s
failure to rapidly control the chemical contamination of the
Songhua River in northeastern China resulted in the spill flowing into
Russia. Examples abound of foreign countries’ concerns about China’s
inability to meet various commitments as a result of corruption, centerperiphery
tensions, and generally underdeveloped government controls
in certain sectors.
A fourth challenge stems from weaknesses in China’s national
security decisionmaking system, especially those related to crisis decisionmaking.
China’s bureaucracy for making national security decisions
is plagued with the problems of excessive secrecy; divisions
between the civilian, intelligence, and military decisionmaking structures;
and the lack of ways to coordinate among civilian and military organizations.10 Prominent manifestations of these weaknesses include
the slow and haphazard national response to the SARS episode, the
prominence of the PLA narrative in the EP-3 incident in April 2001,
and the slow response and vague explanation about the January 2007
test of a direct ascent antisatellite weapon. These limitations will likely
become even more problematic as the PLA improves its capabilities and
conducts military activities beyond China’s immediate periphery, such
as submarine patrols, which will raise questions about China’s regional
ambitions.
A fifth challenge is China’s possession and mobilization of
sufficient national resources to play a more active role in East Asia—
especially when compared to the resources of the United States and
its allies. Although its diplomatic toolkit is expanding, China is still
limited in the national resources it can use and is willing to mobilize to
pursue its diplomatic agenda. The most obvious example of this constraint
was the comparatively small amount of aid that China donated
to tsunami victims in Southeast Asia in early 2005. China provided
$83 million worth of financial and material support. Although this
was the greatest amount of humanitarian aid China has ever provided,
it paled in comparison to the hundreds of millions of dollars that the
United States, Australia, and Japan spent on relief operations. Also,
the collective military logistics capability of the U.S. military and its
Asian allies (mainly India and Japan) to deliver such aid far outstrips
anything that China currently possesses.
Sixth, as China “goes global” with its overseas investment and
purchasing of natural resources, Beijing risks being seen as an extractive
economy, taking much from developing nations and contributing
little to their national development. Given the modes of operations
of many Chinese companies operating abroad, in which they import
Chinese labor and goods for local infrastructure projects, China is
increasingly facing this very challenge. Such sentiments have already been raised in several Latin American and African nations.11 This perception
of China, if it develops further, could undermine a core feature
of China’s international behavior: its identity as a fellow developing
nation that has long opposed such “neo-colonialist” practices as
resource exploitation.
A final diplomatic challenge for Chinese leaders is the constraining
effect of nationalist sentiments on foreign policy choices. Although
Chinese leaders have used nationalist sentiment as a tool to shape the
domestic context of policy decisions, they face the inherent constraints
of trying to manipulate nationalism. The growth of anti-Japanese
sentiments in China, in particular, has limited the ability of Chinese
policymakers to pursue a more balanced approach to the Sino-Japanese
relationship—one that better reflects Beijing’s economic and security
interests in stable and amicable relations with Tokyo. In periods of
bilateral crises with Japan, the United States, or other nations, nationalist
protests have had and will continue to have a corrosive effect on the
government’s ability to de-escalate the situation and reach resolution.
To be sure, Chinese leaders appear to have begun to recognize
this constraint, and they now pay attention to managing public perceptions.
In recent years foreign ministry and CCP statements about
foreign affairs work have become replete with references to the importance
of “people-centered” diplomacy and “balancing the overall international
and domestic situations,” which are both references to avoiding
public opposition to key foreign policy decisions, including by
providing opportunities for input.12

Challenge 7 - The Perfect Larry Matching Algorithm
Larry had tried everything he possibly could. First, he tried going to bars accompanied by a shameless wingman who (for a not-too-large fee) would approach girls and ask them "have you met Larry?"... but the same answer always came back, “Thank God, no!”. He tried lying, pretending to be a rich and successful man, or a thrill-seeking archeologist. He tried speed dating, with the emphasis in his case on “speed”. And, finally, he tried meeting girls using dating websites, which promised him to find his perfect match... but that didn't work either.
After years and years of loneliness and not scoring, Larry realized that the blame lay, of course, with the matching algorithm used by these dating sites. It wasn't good enough, and that’s why it always matched him with women who weren't interested in him at all. As he had so much time on his hands, he decided to make a study. He has created a poll on a large dataset of men and women and compared the answers with the results, obtaining a set of meaningful questions for every profile. He has also found that the important issue often isn't the answer given by the girl, but the ones given by her friends, or even her friend’s friends. Finally, he has studied his own profile and as a result he has obtained... the Perfect Larry Matching Algorithm.
The questions in the poll are as follows:
- A.
- B. Do you like super hero action figures?
- C. Do you like men in leisure suits?
- D. Do you like cats?
- E. Do you like to go shopping?
The final score for every girl G will be obtained by adding these points:
- 7 points if G likes naughty, dirty games
- 3 points for every friend of G who likes super hero action figures.
- 6 points for every friend of a friend of G, not including the friends of G and G herself, who likes men in leisure suits
- 4 points if G has any friend H who likes cats, and no friend of H (except perhaps G) likes cats (4 points at most, not 4 for every friend).
- 5 points for every girl H who likes to go shopping and has no possible connection with G through a chain of friends (friends, friends of friends, friends of friends of friends, etc.)
Larry is now feeling hopeful and anxious... his big day is getting closer. He just needs a tough and hardened engineer who is able to process the data of his polls according to the magic algorithm. Could it be you?
Input
The input file starts with 2 numbers in a single line:
- N, the number of girls in the poll
- M, the number of friendship lines
N lines will follow, each one containing the name of the girl, and her answers to the questions A to E, using a “Y” if the answer is yes or an “N” if the answer is no.
After those, M lines will follow, each one containing a sequence of names of girls who are friends with one another (every girl in the sequence is a friend of the others). Friendship relationships between two or more girls can be repeated in other lines.
Output
Output one single line indicating the maximum score obtained by a girl in the poll.
Limits
M and N will fit in a 32-bit signed integer.
 She gets 7 points because she likes naughty, dirty games (A) and 5*2 = 10 points because Colleen and Peggy like to go shopping and they have no direct or indirect connection through friends to Barbara (E). Mindy got 12 points, Colleen 15, Piggy 11 and Bambi 15.

Sets the name of the client.
This is reported to the PStatsServer, and will presumably be written in the title bar or something.
| setMaxRate | ( | double | rate | ) |
Controls the number of packets that will be sent to the server.
Normally, one packet is sent per frame, but this can flood the server with more packets than it can handle if the frame rate is especially good (e.g. if nothing is onscreen at the moment). Set this parameter to a reasonable number to prevent this from happening.
This number specifies the maximum number of packets that will be sent to the server per second, per thread.

The descriptions online are a little disconcerting, but I saw a friend do it, so I figured I would give it a try.
First try we went really low with the CO2, around 10-15%. Colours became more vivid, I fealt slightly disorientated. I fealt slightly weird afterwards, so I waited about 2 hours before trying again.
We did a more accurate mix for the 30% mark, and I began sucking it down. Breathing out through the nose, it had that acidic tang that you get if you smell the top of a recently opened soda. I can understand where people would get the idea of panicing if they just lost it when the breathing became difficult. It does feel funny, because I want to exhale as soon as I get the mix in my lungs. But I remind myself to go with it, there's a lot of O2 there. Colours go vivid, then sort of explode.
Aftereffects (acquard feelings, difficulty communicating, sense of unreality) last about 5 minutes for the real feelings, and about a half hour for the psychological effects.
We like thoughtful and tactile experiences, this is neither, I also don't know if I'd do it again... but it wasn't bad.

"Thirteen Days" to Remember by Homer Yen (c) 2001
On a chilly October day in 1962, America teetered on the verge of war. A national crisis had developed when it was discovered that Russia was secretly installing nuclear missiles in Cuba, giving our Red adversary first strike capability. America was adamant in finding a way to remove them. However, it was unclear as to whether diplomacy would work or whether military force would be needed. Had the Cuban Missile Crisis escalated out of control, it would have started an irreversible chain of events that could have, in all likelihood, sent mankind on a trajectory towards Armageddon. That is, unless cooler heads could prevail.
"Thirteen Days" is a wonderfully suspenseful and dramatic retelling of the Cuban Missile Crisis when America hoped for the best but virtually expected the worst, showing us why cooler heads did prevail. Culled from a host of sources, including historical records and documents, White House tapes, memoirs, and interviews with some of the key players, the screenplay centers on three people that ultimately helped to pull America and the world back from the brink. The most crucial, of course, is then-President John F. Kennedy (Bruce Greenwood) who must simultaneously act decisively to address the grave threat to national security, maintain a sense of decision-making integrity to appease opposing political forces, and exercise temperance in this time of high volatility. We learn that it's not just the "big red dog digging in our backyard" that poses a threat. Equally menacing is the zealous military brass that wants to take immediate, forceful action. Greenwood turns in a strong performance who makes a believable Kennedy, allowing the audience to internalize the agonizing political decisions that would not only affect the future of his administration but the future of the world as well.
The other two key players are Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy (Steven Culp) who remains edgy about any path they undertake but is committed to carrying out the decisions of his Presidential brother. Also, Kenneth P. O'Donnell (Kevin Costner) is a brusque political advisor that helps to keep the political machine from unraveling. Both also give fine performances, making it easy to accept them as the people that they portray.
The movie chronicles the crisis from when offensive missiles are first discovered being assembled in Cuba. Every action that the U.S. takes in countering the threat seems reasonable. However, the results bring frightening consequences that push us closer towards the unthinkable with alarming momentum. Throughout the film, the sense of urgency and tension mounts. For President Kennedy and the world, the stakes are unspeakably high and the territory that they have entered is uncharted.
The stark nature of the drama is heightened as some scenes are shot in black and white. Additionally, to give the onscreen turmoil a more profound sense of realism, many scenes feature video footage from that period. We witness the pandemonium at the stores as citizens stocked up on goods; watch venerable news anchor Walter Cronkite struggle to find the words to adequately describe the frenzied situation; and most haunting, view images of school children running for cover during a bomb drill.
This is a riveting, message-driven film about a pivotal point in our history when a handful of men had the power to save or destroy the entire world. It's a chapter of America's recent past that should never be forgotten. After seeing it, you'll feel lucky to be alive.

Optimal working condition
Status of this Memo
This document specifies an Internet Best Current Practices for the
Internet Community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
1. Introduction
For the purposes of this document, an fylleconf is the method of
configurating networking equipment & IT Systems but also programing
under heavy influence of alcohol with the purpose of reching
ballmer peak working condition.
The ballmer peak was discoverd by microsoft in the late 80's.
The casue is unkown, But somehow a BAC. Between 0.129% and
0.138% confers superhuman programing and configration ability.
This document describes fylleconf and how to stay at the ballmer
peak for longer durations of time with minimal side effects and
how to optimize and manage a group of individuals at the
ballmer peak. But also how to the ultimate path to ballmers peak
and getting drifting indviduals back to to ballmers peak.
2. Motivation
The requirments for configuration & programing have reached beyond
anyones expectaion. The ammount of time and skill required to
search and copy from stackoverflow(SO) and stackexchange(SE)
have multiplied over a 100x times over just a few years and is
expected to keep rising. This puts absurd level of pressure
and stress on indivduals working in the field.
The only possibile solution to this problem is reducing the reliance
of SE & SO. This requiers original configuration and programing.
Completley without copying. This is simply inhuman and impossible
without external help.
For the survival of IT as a whole we can't stress enough about the
importance of Implementing fylleocnf as the norm in IT.
1 hour fylleconf of usualy generates the same amount of OG code
that the same individual would make in 40 hours of configuration.
Rekhter, et al Best Current Practice [Page 1]
RFC 1651 Fylleconf
2. Planning
A usual fylleconf lasts for 12 hours with 8-10 hours of effective
work at ballmers peak. The recomendation is to start around 18:00
and ends at 6:00. This is the estimated norm but there will be some
calibration needed for eatch individual.
Getting experinced can take alot of time and trail and error.
Usally it takes an individual around two years of experince for the
abillity to manage his alcohol intake for optimal time at ballmers
peak. When using inexperinced fylleconfare it is recomended to have
a manager checking the alcohol level using a dräger. To make sure they
and then use his experince to reduce or incresse the intake.
During a individuls first fylleconfs a dual pipe drinking hat can be
used. Where the manager controls all intake by pouring the alcohol
into the hat.
Automation we have started to se a trend automating fylleconf using a
dualpipe drinking hat & fishtank pumps contolled by blockchain cloud AI.
With an IoT alchol blood test attached to the individual. Many simple
ones can be find on ebay for less then $10 000. Thesse can only mix
mountan dew and vodka. That is suffefienct for most individuals.
But more advanced models allows for swapping the ingredients and
optimizing fore more individuals. But when looking at advanced models.
Be careful since many require proprietary mixers.
Rekhter, et al Best Current Practice [Page 2]
RFC 1651 Fylleconf
3. Consumption
Recomended ammount for a normal individual durring a 12H fylleconf
An individual usally consume 500-1500ML of 40%+ spririts with a
0-3,125L of mixers. Do not mix a drinks to less then 1/3 part
spirits. Since it will casuse them to many toilet visits.
We also recomend to keep at least a 6 pack of beer per individual
if they need something to switch up the spririts with. Some
individuals also only wants beer for them we recomend two flak.
If you using other indivudals that you manage. We recomend to
slowly swap out the products of better quility to worse. To simply
save money since they can't tell the diffrence after sometime.

The history of urban settlement in the area of modern-day Dhaka dates to the first millennium.The region was part of the ancient district of Bikrampur, which was ruled by the Sena dynasty. Under Islamic rule, it became part of the historic district of Sonargaon, the regional administrative hub of the Delhi and the Bengal Sultanates. The Grand Trunk Road passed through the region, connecting it with North India, Central Asia and the southeastern port city of Chittagong. More..

Previous: Introduction to Classes, Up: Introduction to Classes
The object system provides a number of predefined metaclasses. These include the classes standard-class, built-in-class, and structure-class:
The class standard-class is the default class of classes defined by defclass.
The class built-in-class is the class whose instances are classes that have special implementations with restricted capabilities. Any class that corresponds to a standard type might be an instance of built-in-class. The predefined type specifiers that are required to have corresponding classes are listed in Figure~4–8. It is implementation-dependent whether each of these classes is implemented as a built-in class.
All classes defined by means of defstruct are instances of the class structure-class.

Merchant’s Buckwheat
Buckwheat is not very popular outside Russia, the former USSR, and some Asian
countries; but it is a nice grain full of nutrients which can be used to prepare
delicious and nutritious dishes.
Ingredients
The ingredients below are for 2 hearty portions.
- 400g pork meat
- ½ metric cup (~125ml) buckwheat
- 1 1/5 metric cup (~300ml) water
- 1 medium-sized carrot
- 1 small onion
- 6-8 tablespoons tomato paste
- Wheat flour
- Curcuma
- Chili powder (optional)
- 3-4 garlic cloves
- Parsley
- 3-4 bay leaves
Directions
- Chop the onion and cut the pork into small pieces.
- Dust the pork with some flour. I sometimes like to do this once I’ve added
the pork to the pan, just because I am lazy and I haven’t noticed much
difference between either approach.
- Heat the frying pan add a bit of oil, add the pork and onion, and fry for
about 10-15 minutes over medium-high heat.
- While the pork and onion are being fried, cut the carrot into small pieces
and chop the parsley.
- Once the pork and onion are fried, add the water, tomato paste, buckwheat and
carrots.
- Add curcuma, chili powder, salt and black pepper to taste; mix thoroughly.
- Add in the garlic cloves, bay leaves and chopped parsley.
- Once the water is boiling, close the pan with a lid and stew for about 25
minutes over low heat.
- Serve hot and enjoy!

Once OneVue launched, the team shifted to work on My AcuRite. My AcuRite is a site dedicated to home environmental monitoring using devices manufactured by Chaney Electronics under the AcuRite brand. Sensor types include temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction, rainfall, lightning proximity, light intensity, and water detection. The site offers monitoring that will notify users when sensors go out of range, useful for things like detecting freezing around pipes or the presence of water in a basement.
“Smart Hubs” are paired with each sensor and connected to the internet to send data to the servers. These hubs send sensor data to our servers a few times per minute. This presents an interesting challenge in scalability as we are processing approximately four hundred thousand requests per hour. Micro-services handle the load by scaling independently to process data, relying on queueing systems to keep everything cohesive.
Most of the existing framework built for OneVue was applicable for My AcuRite. Most of the work done has been optimization and support for more custom endpoints to limit data transmission on mobile devices. We created a second bastion API which allows access to some of the same micro-services behind OneVue. We also now support native apps on iOS and Android.
One other challenge in building the site was the migration of data from the old site. We worked with the old contractors to spec out an API to access customer data, then built a webpage that allowed users to enter username and password and import the data to the new site. This also triggered a flag to update the firmware of their devices to point at the new service. Once the firmware was updated, it started reporting data and would be automatically claimed by the “new” user in our system. We tested the system by sending invites to a few thousand users as beta testers and monitored the performance of our system.

Since I'm scrolling around out in the desert, I might as well point to a local example. The LiC corporation has a production plant out here somewhere. It's not easy to find the damn thing because it was designed to blend into the local environment. If I remember correctly, it looked something like an old style Spanish mission.
After wandering around on the topside for a while, I find it. I could have beamed there via a bookmark, but that's not as much fun. Besides, by beaming one does not discover new additions to the landscape.
The architect that designed the VR structure used mostly materials that she assumed would be native to the local ecology: brick, stone, and mud. (Clicking on the signpost gives the reader a complete text explanation of why the building was designed that way. There is a lot of aesthetic mumbo-jumbo involving explanations of texture and allusions to the history of Americans native to the desert southwest, but she seems to have omitted another point, namely that using local materials is cheaper up front and over time owing to costs of transportation to the plant site) The LiC building is also designed to be self-sustaining. It recycles much of its own water, and generates most of its own power via solar dynamic reflectors. (More clicking on each of these items brings up more explanation, this time more technical).
The production plant itself is underground (to help with heat distribution and cooling, according to the text explanations). The plant, which is almost entirely a robotic facility with a human staff of three people, produces a lithium-carbon composite called aromatic lithocarbons.
(Oh God, more technical mumbo-jumbo. An entire Ph.D. thesis, it looks like. Um . . . apparently this stuff is not stable in pure form, and tends to turn to jelly or something unless supported by an internal carbon-silicate lattice with trace elements of heavier metals. Quite frankly, I don't understand what this author is talking about. But then again, I don't know how my toaster works, either.)
Now, the interesting part about the LiC is that none of this exists in reality. Neither the building nor any of its technology, nor the management. All of it is DDT&E. Or to be precise, it is pre-DDT&E, designed to entice investors and draw both supporters and detractors out into the open where the parent company (Registry Protected) can engage them in multilogue.
Which is, in fact, exactly what happened. According to my follow-up research with designers at the real world corporation, the response they received was very favorable. Lithium-Carbon composites are potentially useful because they have the strength and tensile cohesion of steel, but they are much lighter than steel. Lighter, in fact, than aluminum. The "LiC" mailbox was apparently stuffed with inquiries from real-world designers in the automobile, aerospace, and construction industries, all demanding to know where they could obtain supplies of this composite. The mailbox was also filled with scientific bombast and barrages from university professors, researchers, et al, who delighted in pointing out flaws in the chemistry theory. And there were missives as well from robotics companies, architectural firms, and management consultancies, all demanding a piece of the action.
The real world corporation that created "LiC" was, naturally, delighted. Well, not 100% delighted. Apparently they also received a couple of patent infringement lawsuits. I'm told that their attorneys are not squeamish, however. Anyway even negatives can be positives. At least they flushed their opposition out into the open before going any further.

Generated using TypeDoc
Top level base type of sense NET's Type hierarchy. Content has the basic properties and functionality that can be reached on all of the inherited types. It's almost the same as an abstract class, it may not be instantiated directly, but it has the basic methods implemented that can be called on obejcts with derived types. Unlike other Content Types it is not autogenerated. Content has the basic properties and functionality that can be reached on all of the inherited types.

Actions
Built-in SenseNet Actions on client-side are methods on the Content object. If you want to use them you have to have a Content which can be made with the Create method that can convert your js Object or JSON with the proper parameters to a Content with the given type.
var content = Content.Create('Folder', {DisplayName: 'My folder'});
On a Content object the Actions can be called like this way (check below sections for further information about the Actions and their params):
let contentDelete = content.Delete(false);
This function returns an Observable so that you can subscribe to it in your code. This way you can work with the response easier defining the three functions of a subscribtion and using all the super helpful and usable features like filtering, combining, caching, etc.
contentDelete.subscribe({ .map(response => response.d) //map and use the reponse's 'd' object as the response .subscribe({ next: response => console.log(response), //if the request was successful error: error => console.error('something wrong occurred: ' + error), //if the request failed complete: () => console.log('done'), //if the request is done }) });
Using RxJS you are able to merge, zip or combine multiple Observables, this way you can develop various combinations of Actions with custom functionality.

And about Reactive Programming here it could be helpful not only with ajax request but also with event handling or anything else related to async data streams.


--- creation_epoch:<PHONE_NUMBER> lastmod_epoch:<PHONE_NUMBER> categories: Programming title: Python3 and getting datetime with tz_info timezone info --- When using something like datetime.datetime.now().isoformat() you would expect to get the timezone on the end or a trailing Z.
However both the .now() and .utcnow() only return naive objects with tz_info of None
If you don't want to use 3rd party libraries (solution for longest time until Python 3.2+) you can use the following tricks:
LOCAL_TIMEZONE = datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc).astimezone().tzinfo enhanced_now = datetime.datetime.now(LOCAL_TIMEZONE) enhanced_now_utc = datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc)
