Change Site Contents: Terrain Page
This tab page of the Change Site Contents dialog allows you to edit the stack of terrain instances placed on a map site.
This box allows you to select a site’s background terrain, among all entity classes in the “Terrain” category currently defined on the Entities Page whose “Background Terrain” option is enabled.
- Use the Class (Alt+C) drop-down box to select a background terrain class by its unique internal identifier. When editing the contents of a single site, “(no background terrain)” is added as the first entry.
- Choose Change Terrain… (Alt+T) to display the Change Entity Instance dialog for the selected background terrain, allowing you to edit the individual data of the terrain entity.
- An Asterisk (*) indicates a terrain entity with edited individual data that differs from its default class data.
When editing the contents of a single map site, selecting “(no background terrain)” will cause the site to use the default background terrain. This will disable the Change Terrain button.
This box shows a preview of the current stack of overlaid images, as defined by the terrain stack, or an “invalid” icon (red circle with a slash) if the stack is empty.
When editing the contents of a single map site, the preview will not show the default terrain stack. Moreover, the preview does not include any entity stacks for other entity categories.
This list shows all entities in the current foreground terrain stack, as a list of terrain class identifiers.
- Asterisks (*) indicate entities with edited individual data that differs from their default class data.
- Left-click on an entry to select it.
- Double-click on an entry to display its Change Entity Instance dialog, as with the Change Terrain button.
- Choose o (Add Terrain) to add an entity of the selected Available Class to the entity stack. Duplicate identifiers are possible and will cause Hexkit Game to create multiple entities of the same class.
- Choose ! (Change Terrain) to display the Change Entity Instance dialog for the selected entry, allowing you to edit the individual data of the terrain entity.
- Choose x (Remove Terrain) to remove the selected entry.
- Choose ñ (Move Terrain Up) to move the selected entry towards the top of the list.
- Choose ò (Move Terrain Down) to move the selected entry towards the bottom of the list.
This list shows the identifiers of all entity classes in the “Terrain” category currently defined on the Entities Page whose “Background Terrain” option is disabled. These classes may be used to compose the foreground part of a site’s terrain stack.
- Left-click on an entry to select it.
- Double-click on an entry to add it to the Terrain Stack, as with the Add Terrain button.

Application lifetime
Birth of application
Applications are born in the MyApp/config.jsxinc file in form of the configuration object that is passed to the application manager. It si method BX.apps.add(config)
API, where BX.apps
is instance of the AppManager
API class, config
is an object according to the Application
API specification and may additionally contain autorun
, application
and id
property.
Script may contain more applications.
Doing jobs
Application receives tasks in the form of requests. Request is usually a string that is sent via BX.apps.processRequest(id, request)
API method to the application with this id
.
If application configuration contains the autorun
property, application manager immediately initializes this application and sends autorun
request.
Processing of the request
Application: processRequest(request, sender)
API
Brixy framework calls this method for you. You do not care about it.
- It translates the request to the route. Route object wraps the controller and its action method, optionally some data.
- Invokes the
run(action, data)
API method of the controller. - If controller returns a new request, application processes it.
Controller: run(action, data)
API
Brixy framework calls this method for you. You do not care about it.
action<ActionName>(data)
method of the controller is called here. Controller's subclass should define required action methods, e.g.actionDefault(data)
for'Default'
action.- Calls
View.render(data)
API method if controller's action method initializes some view viasetView(view, data)
API method. - Calls
handle<HandlerName>(view)
method if yourView.render(data)
method returns a handler name. run()
method may return the next application request. Application will process it.
Controller: action<ActionName>(data)
You should make this method for each your controller.
- Controller does the action task in this method. E.g. communicates with the model layer of the application to get and/or set some data.
- If some user inputs are required, you can call
setView(view, data)
API method to initialize your View class. - The action method may return the application request. Controller's
run()
method will return it to the application.
View: render(data)
API
Brixy framework calls this method for you. You do not care about it. Simply define your view class with render()
method.
- Shows dialog window to get some data from the user.
- Method may return the name of the controller's handler. Controller's subclass should define required handler methods, e.g.
handleSave(view)
for'Save'
handler.
Controller: handle<HandlerName>(view)
You should make this method if you want handle data from the user input.
- This method finishes the task of the current action after the end of the view rendering. The view with user data is accessible as argument of this method.
- The handle method may return the application request. Controller's
run()
method will return it to the application.
Processing of application events
Application events are intended for inter-application communication. Script can even publish a method for calling application events from the outside world, e.g. from CEP application.
Events are called via BX.apps.processEvent(event, data)
API method. Application manager sends the event to all applications that listens this event.
The end of the application
Standard script ends when the last application request is finished.
Script running in the persistent Extend Script engine remains alive for the duration of the Adobe application. Application can process requests and events all this time.

Create the Pose
This tutorial assumes you've gone through the Frame-by-Frame and Motion Tween Animation tutorials and have the basics down for navigating your way around the Pose Maker. As such, the steps will not be quite as detailed as before.- Create a new pose called 5-summon. This is taking place in Florina's dress removal stage, which is stage 5.
- Leave the base height at 1400.
Add Florina
- Add a sprite using 5-embarrassed.png from Florina's folder.
- Name the sprite "dress" since this is the sprite used while Florina still has a dress on.
Summoning Orb
Now that Florina is present to torment, the next step is to add a summoning orb, which will fall from the sky and land in front of her.- Add a sprite using ep_orb.png from Florina's folder and name it "orb".
- Zoom out the canvas a couple times since we want this to fall in from somewhere above the screen.
- Pan the camera up by holding the right mouse button and pulling the canvas down.
- Drag the orb above Florina's head a good distance. It needs to be high enough that it spawns outside the game window, whose exact height depends on the browser's window size. This image is using -1300.
- Create a key frame at 1:00s and move the orb to Florina's feet, Y: 1100.
- We want the orb to fall and bounce a few times before stopping. Conveniently there's an easing method that does just that. Click the ease icon on the Y property and change it to Bounce.
- The orb is going to stay centered, so you can kill any X frames that were created. Click the orb's X row and press delete to remove all key frames for the X property.
- You can play the animation now and watch an orb fall from the sky. Click the "Recenter scene" button next to the canvas' zoom out button to reset the zoom and view.
An Orb? Yikes!
Summoning orbs in SPNATI don't seem to work quite like they do in Fire Emblem Heroes, and Florina has firsthand experience. An orb falling at her feet can't be good, so let's make her react.- Click and drag the timeline marker's handle at the top of the timeline. As you move it back and forth, the preview will update instantly to reflect that point in time. By default this will snap to the tick marks. Hold shift to allow finer movements.
- Note: If you still have the orb sprite selected, while dragging you'll see that there are two orbs: a selected one that doesn't bounce and an unselected one that does bounce. This happens because the selected orb always uses linear easing and interpolation. Otherwise, modifying it would be frustrating since it wouldn't necessarily move to where you're trying to move it.
- Drag the marker to the point where the orb first hits the ground, which is somewhere around 0.4s.
- Select the "dress" sprite and add a key frame here. Change the Source to 5-loss.png.
- Type 0 in the Y value to put Y into the key frame.
- At 0.5s, set Y to -30.
- At 0.6s, set Y to 0.
- If you did this correctly, Florina will now hop in surprise when the orb hits the floor.
- The last thing to do is jump to 1:00 and change her Source to 5-shocked.png. This is important for the fade we'll be performing in a few steps.
Flash of Light
-
The orb has come to a halt. Time for it to work its magic. Let's make a flash of light explode outwards and fade away.
- With the time marker at 1:00, add a new sprite using ep_flash.png from Florina's folder. Name it "flash".
- Whoa! The sprite's box in the timeline starts at 1:00 instead of 0:00. This is known as a delayed sprite. It will not get added to the pose until 1:00s into the animation.
- You can adjust a sprite's delay by dragging the whole box left or right. For now, let's leave it at 1s, which is the point where the orb stopped moving.
- Select the key frame and move the Y position to 1145 so it's lined up with the orb.
- For fun, we're going to skew this sprite. Hold shift and position the mouse over the top edge of the sprite's selection box in the canvas and then drag it left to skew the sprite. Go with 20.
- We don't want the flash to appear immediately at 1 second, so select the key frame and change the opacity to 0.
- The sprite is going to grow larger and shrink back to its starting height, so let's set up the end frame right now.
- First, set Scale X and Scale Y to 1 so they get added to the key frame.
- Select the key frame in the timeline and press Ctrl+C to copy the whole key frame to the clipboard.
- Move the marker to 2:00s and press Ctrl+V to paste the sprite here.
- While we're at it, flip the Skew (X) on this new frame to -20.
- Jump the marker to 1:50 and set the opacity to 100.
- Grab a corner of the sprite's selection box in the canvas and resize it to cover most of Florina, ex. a scale factor of 15.
- Change the Easing Method for opacity, scale (X), and scale (Y) to use Ease-In-Out Cubic. This makes the flash bit faster in the middle when it's at its brightest.
- At this point when playing the animation, the orb should fall, Florina jumps, and then a flash of light bursts from the orb
Clothing Damage
-
Surprise, surprise. The orb's effect causes her dress to fade away. One way to do this would be to add a new key frame that changes the dress sprite's source, but we want something a bit more dynamic than an instant change.
- Add a new sprite using 6-shocked.png and call it undies.
- Due to the way 5-shocked.png and 6-shocked.png are cropped differently, they don't line up exactly. To minimize this, we want to delay adding the undies sprite until needed. Change the Start value in the Sprite Settings to 1.00. This is another way to move a delayed sprite's starting point in addition to dragging the starting key frame.
- As you can tell, this is Florina in her underwear. We want to layer this behind the dress sprite so that we can fade away the dress and reveal the underwear beneath it. Right now though, since undies was added later, it appears on top of dress.
- We could fix this like we did in the Motion Tween tutorial by toying with sprite layers, but lets use another approach. Grab the sprite's box in the timeline by its blue bar and drag it upwards until it's above dress. Make sure the Start point remains at 1:00.
- This reordered the sprites without specifying layers. It's effectively the same thing as if we'd added the undies sprite first.
- Switch back to the dress sprite and move the marker to 1:50 (the point where the flash is at full opacity). Keyframe: dress (1.5s) should be showing in the Property Window.
- Set opacity to 100. It was already 100 prior to this point, but this is the key frame where we want to first start reducing it.
- Click into 2:00 and move the opacity to 0. Change the Opacity's Easing Method to Ease-Out Cubic.
- Select the undies sprite again and click into 2:50. Change the Source to 6-embarrassed.png
- If everything's set up correctly, playing the animation will now cause her dress to fade away at the flash's peak. After a moment, she covers herself.
Orb Damage
It doesn't make sense for the orb to stick around if it's exploding, so let's get rid of it.- But first, let's make the orb spin so it looks more dangerous.
- Select the orb's key frame at 0 and set its Rotation to 0.
- Jump the marker to 0.25s and rotate it to 360 degrees.
- Set the Rotation property to loop by clicking the empty space in its row beneath the eyeball.
- Change the Rotation Easing Method to Linear. Otherwise it will repeatedly speed up and slow down while spinning.
- The point of this is to demonstrate that properties can animate independently from each other. The rotation will continue its 0.25s loop for the whole pose while the rest of the orb's animation plays once.
- Move the marker to 1:00 and set Scale X and Scale Y for the orb to 1.00.
- At 1:50, set Scale X and Scale Y to 1.5.
- Change the easing method for Scale X and Scale Y to "Ease-In".
- Select the orb's sprite again and add key frames at 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 and 1.0s with Opacity 100, 0, 100, 0, and 100 to make the orb smoothly pulse in and out for a bit.
- Add a final key frame at 1:50 with Opacity: 0 so that the orb vanishes for good when the flash bursts.
- We want this to happen instantly. Set the Opacity's interpolation mode to None. This is the line segment to the right of the ease method and the left of the looping toggle.
- Play the animation. The orb vanishes now, but it also flickers instantly between 0.6 and 1.0 seconds when we actually wanted that to pulse in and out smoothly.
- Change the interpolation back to Linear and click on the Opacity key frame at 1.5s. Make sure you're selecting only the Opacity key frame and not the orb's general key frame at 1.5s.
- Right click the key frame and choose "Split animation." The diamond turns into a half diamond.
-
Play the animation again. Now it pulses like we wanted, but also instantly disappears at 1.5s. A "split" marks a new set of keyframes. Once the animation reaches the last key frame before a split, it will stop there until the time reaches the split frame, at which point it will immediately jump to the new value.
- Split animations also allow for a new set of interpolation/easing methods for the property, so you ease-in the first few key frames, split the animation, and use linear for the rest.
Congratulations!
Your final timeline should look similar to above when finished. That's it! You've made it through the tutorials. Hopefully this has given you a pretty solid understanding of the basics of the Pose Maker.

TAYLOR JOHNSTON
05.25.17
Ohio is coming off its third season of 30-plus wins in the last four years, but it will face the challenge of replacing a legend in the 2017-18 academic year.
The Bobcats have become one of the most consistent sports programs at Ohio due to the right arm of Savannah Jo Dorsey. Dorsey graduated from Ohio as the program’s leader in wins, strikeouts, shutouts, innings pitched and complete games, among other accolades.
Losing a program-changer in Dorsey will be a big loss for Ohio, but the Bobcats will still have a talented pitching rotation.
Taking the top spot in the rotation will be Danielle Stiene, who pitched a perfect game in the 2017 season. Stiene is often overlooked because she pitched behind Dorsey the majority of her career, but she is entering her senior season already holding Mid-American Conference team honors in 2016 and the honor of being ranked in one of the top 50 Fastpitch pitchers in a 2017 Fastpitch News poll.
Hannah Ruhoff | FILE
Ohio's Taylor Saxton celebrates after she scores another run in the March 25, 2017, game against Toledo at the Ohio Softball Stadium.
Behind Stiene, Ohio will have sophomore Desirae Villanueva, who showed flashes of great potential in her freshman season, including a complete game victory in just her second career start.
Also entering the rotation for Ohio will be incoming freshman Madi McCrady, who signed with Ohio during the early signing period.
Those three will look to keep Ohio’s pitching staff the best in the MAC in the new year, but they will have the challenge of doing so without catcher Madison Claytor.
Claytor graduated from Ohio as one of the most consistent players coach Jodi Hermanek had. Claytor was an extension of Hermanek on the field, often giving the advice Hermanek was going to share during a circle visit before she even reached it.
The Ohio pitching staff also raved about Claytor’s game plan behind the plate and contributed much of its success to the catcher.
Replacing Claytor will be Natalie Alvarez, who mostly played right field during the 2017 season to keep her bat in the lineup. But when Alvarez did get behind the plate, Stiene raved about Alvarez’s ability to pick up on parts of Stiene’s mechanics and help Stiene adjust during rough patches for Stiene’s starts.
Also entering the fold for Ohio will be incoming freshman Brooke Rice, who signed with Ohio during the early signing period.
Offensively, the Bobcats made great strides behind the tutorship of assistant coach Jeremy Manley. Morgan Geno, Alex Day and MacKenzie Brunswick all saw major increases in their offense production last season with Manley’s help.
Those three will look to continue to improve, while Mikayla Cooper, Taylor Saxton and Alexa Holland will look to continue their consistent hitting from the past season and keep Ohio as one of the top offenses in the MAC.
The Bobcats have a talented roster, despite losing Dorsey, Claytor and infielder Casie Hutchinson to graduation, and will look to win the MAC and take another step toward national success.

--- # Upcoming Dates * Final Exam: 12/1 @ 5:30P, 2 hours allotted * Final Project submission: 11/11 --- # Functions with PL/pgSQL We've briefly covered functions for triggers. That's one use for them. Functions can be written in a variety of languages, today we'll focus on PL/pgSQL Loadable Procedural language for Postgesql * Can be used for functions/trigger procedures * Add control structure * Perform complex computations * All the data types we need, including user defined * (ha!) easy to use --- # Structure of PL/pgSQL PL/pgSQL is a block-structured language. The complete text of a function definition must be a block. A block is defined as: ``` [ <
> ] [ DECLARE declarations ] BEGIN statements END [ label ]; ``` Each declaration and each statement within a block is terminated by a semicolon. A block that appears within another block must have a semicolon after END, as shown above; however the final END that concludes a function body does not require a semicolon. --- # Example ```sql CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION somefunc() RETURNS integer AS $$ << outerblock >> DECLARE quantity integer := 30; BEGIN RAISE NOTICE 'Quantity here is %', quantity; -- Prints 30 quantity := 50; -- -- Create a subblock -- DECLARE quantity integer := 80; BEGIN RAISE NOTICE 'Quantity here is %', quantity; -- Prints 80 RAISE NOTICE 'Outer quantity here is %', outerblock.quantity; -- Prints 50 END; RAISE NOTICE 'Quantity here is %', quantity; -- Prints 50 RETURN quantity; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; ```
Note: There is actually a hidden "outer block" surrounding the body of any PL/pgSQL function. This block provides the declarations of the function's parameters (if any), as well as some special variables such as FOUND (see Section 39.5.5). The outer block is labeled with the function's name, meaning that parameters and special variables can be qualified with the function's name.
--- # Variable Declaration ```sql user_id integer; quantity numeric(5); url varchar; myrow tablename%ROWTYPE; myfield tablename.columnname%TYPE; arow RECORD; ``` Examples defaults: ```sql quantity integer DEFAULT 32; url varchar := 'http://mysite.com'; user_id CONSTANT integer := 10; ``` --- # Function Parameters ```sql CREATE FUNCTION sales_tax(subtotal real) RETURNS real AS $$ BEGIN RETURN subtotal * 0.06; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; ``` * Function has a named parameter
subtotal
* Function has a return type of 'real' This is much preferred to the old/outdated style: ```sql CREATE FUNCTION sales_tax(real) RETURNS real AS $$ DECLARE subtotal ALIAS FOR $1; BEGIN RETURN subtotal * 0.06; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; ``` --- # In and Out Parameters Instead of a function returning a single value, we can name the return value to potentially make code easier to read for some. ```sql CREATE FUNCTION sales_tax(subtotal real, OUT tax real) AS $$ BEGIN tax := subtotal * 0.06; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; ``` ```sql CREATE FUNCTION sum_n_product(x int, y int, OUT sum int, OUT prod int) AS $$ BEGIN sum := x + y; prod := x * y; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; ``` ```sql CREATE FUNCTION extended_sales(p_itemno int) RETURNS TABLE(quantity int, total numeric) AS $$ BEGIN RETURN QUERY SELECT s.quantity, s.quantity * s.price FROM sales AS s WHERE s.itemno = p_itemno; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; ``` --- # Rows and Tables ```sql DROP TABLE IF EXISTS table2, table1; CREATE TABLE table2(id serial primary key, f3 varchar, f7 varchar); INSERT INTO table2( f3, f7) values ('a', 'c' ); CREATE TABLE table1(id serial primary key, f1 varchar, f5 varchar ); INSERT INTO table1(f1, f5 ) values ('1', '2' ); CREATE FUNCTION merge_fields(t_row table1) RETURNS text AS $$ DECLARE t2_row table2%ROWTYPE; BEGIN SELECT * INTO t2_row FROM table2 LIMIT 1; RETURN t_row.f1 || t2_row.f3 || t_row.f5 || t2_row.f7; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql; SELECT merge_fields(t.*) FROM table1 t ; ``` --- # Control flow: ```sql CREATE TABLE foo (fooid INT, foosubid INT, fooname TEXT); INSERT INTO foo VALUES (1, 2, 'three'); INSERT INTO foo VALUES (4, 5, 'six'); CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION getAllFoo() RETURNS SETOF foo AS $BODY$ DECLARE r foo%rowtype; BEGIN FOR r IN SELECT * FROM foo WHERE fooid > 0 LOOP -- can do some processing here RETURN NEXT r; -- return current row of SELECT END LOOP; RETURN; END $BODY$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' ; SELECT * FROM getallfoo(); ``` ```sql IF number = 0 THEN result := 'zero'; ELSIF number > 0 THEN result := 'positive'; ELSIF number < 0 THEN result := 'negative'; ELSE -- hmm, the only other possibility is that number is null result := 'NULL'; END IF; ``` ---

How would you determine the negative value of an abusive posting on Twitter?
 These platforms grew in popularity because they made it easily for billions of people to share anything they want. However, these platforms do not have a mechanism to guarantee that abusive content does not end up on the platforms as well. Most of these big platforms claim their machine learning/AI capabilities will solve this, but I believe it is going to be one of the biggest issues with the internet that our generation has to solve. Or, if it's unsolvable, should these huge "commons" types of spaces exist in the first place?
My response
Abusive postings on Twitter have will have a negative effect on the platform as a whole in three ways:
- Users who do not abuse the platform will be less willing to engage and more likely to find an alternative.
- Abusive postings encourage abusive replies and copycat behavior.
- Abusive postings will cause advertisers to reduce or end their promotions on the platform to prevent being associated with abusive content.
In order to determine the negative value, I would use the metrics of a few Twitter features:
- I would track how many times a Tweet identifier is associated with the Mute and Block functions. This will allow us to see whether the post is driving users to take a proactive step to hide the Tweet.
- The Report message itself would be handled by the team investigating those claims however it is still important to track the frequency of Report initiations. Similar to Mute and Block actions, this will indicate overall reader sentiment.
- Replies should also have all of the above metrics tracks. Dog-piling can occur when an abusive Tweet generates abusive replies or a contentious dialog beyond non-abusive conversation. If a given thread begins to show a high number of Mutes, Blocks, and Reports, it has a higher chance of being abusive or bordering on abusive.
Tracking the common functions like Mute/Block/Report should be pretty standard. I think the more interesting insights would be gained by focusing on detecting dog-piling as it is escalating and mitigating it by either removing the offending Tweet or by excluding it from users' Timelines.

SlurmClusterResolver
ClusterResolver for system with Slurm workload manager.
Inherits From: ClusterResolver
tf.compat.v1.distribute.cluster_resolver.SlurmClusterResolver
tf.compat.v2.distribute.cluster_resolver.SlurmClusterResolver
This is an implementation of cluster resolvers for Slurm clusters. This allows the specification of jobs and task counts, number of tasks per node, number of GPUs on each node and number of GPUs for each task. It retrieves system attributes by Slurm environment variables, resolves allocated computing node names, constructs a cluster and returns a ClusterResolver object which can be use for distributed TensorFlow.
__init__
__init__( jobs, port_base=8888, gpus_per_node=1, gpus_per_task=1, tasks_per_node=None, auto_set_gpu=True, rpc_layer='grpc' )
Creates a new SlurmClusterResolver object.
This takes in parameters and creates a SlurmClusterResolver object. It uses those parameters to check which nodes will processes reside on and resolves their hostnames. With the number of the GPUs on each node and number of GPUs for each task it offsets the port number for each process and allocates GPUs to tasks by setting environment variables. The resolver currently supports homogeneous tasks and default Slurm process allocation.
jobs
: Dictionary with job names as key and number of tasks in the job as
value.port_base
: The first port number to start with for processes on a node.gpus_per_node
: Number of GPUs available on each node.gpus_per_task
: Number of GPUs to be used for each task.tasks_per_node
: Number of tasks to run on each node, if not set defaults
to Slurm's output environment variable SLURM_NTASKS_PER_NODE.auto_set_gpu
: Set the visible CUDA devices automatically while resolving
the cluster by setting CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES environment variable.
Defaults to True.rpc_layer
: (Optional) The protocol TensorFlow uses to communicate between
nodes. Defaults to 'grpc'.A ClusterResolver object which can be used with distributed TensorFlow.
RuntimeError
: If requested more GPUs per node then available or requested
more tasks then assigned tasks.environment
Returns the current environment which TensorFlow is running in.
There are two possible return values, "google" (when TensorFlow is running in a Google-internal environment) or an empty string (when TensorFlow is running elsewhere).
If you are implementing a ClusterResolver that works in both the Google environment and the open-source world (for instance, a TPU ClusterResolver or similar), you will have to return the appropriate string depending on the environment, which you will have to detect.
Otherwise, if you are implementing a ClusterResolver that will only work in open-source TensorFlow, you do not need to implement this property.
cluster_spec
cluster_spec()
Returns a ClusterSpec object based on the latest instance group info.
This returns a ClusterSpec object for use based on information from the specified initialization parameters and Slurm environment variables. The cluster specification is resolved each time this function is called. The resolver extract hostnames of nodes by scontrol and pack tasks in that order until a node a has number of tasks that is equal to specification. GPUs on nodes are allocated to tasks by specification through setting CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES environment variable.
A ClusterSpec containing host information retrieved from Slurm's environment variables.
get_task_info
get_task_info()
Returns job name and task_id for the process which calls this.
This returns the job name and task index for the process which calls this function according to its rank and cluster specification. The job name and task index are set after a cluster is constructed by cluster_spec otherwise defaults to None.
A string specifying job name the process belongs to and an integner specifying the task index the process belongs to in that job.
master
master( task_type=None, task_id=None, rpc_layer=None )
Returns the master string for connecting to a TensorFlow master.
task_type
: (Optional) Overrides the default auto-selected task type.task_id
: (Optional) Overrides the default auto-slected task index.rpc_layer
: (Optional) Overrides the default RPC protocol TensorFlow uses
to communicate across nodes.A connection string for connecting to a TensorFlow master.
num_accelerators
num_accelerators( task_type=None, task_id=None, config_proto=None )
Returns the number of accelerator cores per worker.
This returns the number of accelerator cores (such as GPUs and TPUs) available per worker.
Optionally, we allow callers to specify the task_type, and task_id, for if they want to target a specific TensorFlow process to query the number of accelerators. This is to support heterogenous environments, where the number of accelerators cores per host is different.
task_type
: (Optional) The type of the TensorFlow task of the machine we
want to query.task_id
: (Optional) The index of the TensorFlow task of the machine we
want to query.config_proto
: (Optional) Configuration for starting a new session to
query how many accelerator cores it has.A map of accelerator types to number of cores.


Whincup admits loss of concentration in costly Newcastle Race 31 error
by James PaveyJamie Whincup’s uncharacteristic error late in Race 31 at the Coates Hire Newcastle 500 boiled down to a “loss of concentration”.
For so long one of the sport’s benchmark operators, Whincup bowled a wide with 20 laps remaining while holding second behind Red Bull Holden Racing Team stablemate Shane van Gisbergen.
Whincup, well down on van Gisbergen at the time, went down the escape road at Turn 1 and rejoined in seventh, before finishing eighth after losing a place to a resurgent Scott Pye.

Race 31: SVG cruises as Whincup throws it away
Drama: McLaughlin in ‘difficult position’ but urged to focus on results
Prior to the error, the Red Bull Holden squad had cut the teams’ champion deficit to Shell V-Power Racing to 77 points. However, it blew out from 116 points to 143 points heading into Sunday’s Race 32 finale.
Speaking after the race, Whincup explained the costly error.
“I’m disappointed with what happened of course, but at the same time everyone makes mistakes at work,” he told the broadcast.
“I just locked a wheel, I was sort of in no man’s land.
“Shane was on a much better strategy and was always going to win the race, and I had comfortable gap to third.
“Just lost a little bit of concentration and boom, that was the end of it.
“Disappointing, I set a high expectation for myself, but we’ll fight back tomorrow.”
Whincup rose to second after van Gisbergen fairly escorted second-placed starter Scott McLaughlin wide at Turn 1. The seven-time series champion then shadowed his teammate in the first stint before McLaughlin was short-fuelled and took the lead.
Whincup stopped on Lap 16, nine laps after McLaughlin, before van Gisbergen was brought in on Lap 33. Van Gisbergen was then allowed through at Turn 11 on Lap 43, effectively putting Whincup back into second.

However, within sight of the finish, Whincup made the mistake – but refused to attribute blame to anything other than himself.
“My car was pretty good… it wasn't the fastest car out there, but it certainly wasn't the slowest, it was well good enough for second,” he said.
“We pitted early, we knew the last stint was going to be tough, but the crew didn't expect me to spear it up the escape road and put me back in the pack.
“Strategy was good, car pace was good enough, just driver made an error.”
Despite admitting losing the one-two was a “bit of a shame”, van Gisbergen defended his teammate’s error.
“That stuff happens when you’re just cruising not on the limit, you lose focus,” van Gisbergen explained.
“It’s good to be comfortable out front, but I always start thinking about other stuff and slowing down.
“That’s the hardest time, is to stay focused when you have got nothing to push for. It’s a real shame to make a mistake like that.
“I’m sure he’ll be kicking himself and I’m sure he’ll come back stronger tomorrow. We have just got to do our job and be one-two tomorrow hopefully and see what happens to these guys.”
With 288 points available on Sunday, the Shell Fords need only finish strongly to prevent the factory Holden squad ruining the drivers’-teams’-Bathurst triple in 2019.
However, McLaughlin – who saw the drivers’ title slip away in controversial circumstances in Newcastle in 2017 – knows nothing is certain.
“This whole weekend is purely teams’ [championship],” McLaughlin said.
“It’s not done, if these guys finish one-two, we’ve got to be good… I think it’s like a top 10 or something like that.
“Anything can happen. I know the hard way.”


Co Down kitchen awarded five stars for outstanding visitor experience
TRACEY'S Farmhouse Kitchen, one of Co. Down's hidden gems, has achieved five stars for its visitor experience.
The traditionally styled farmhouse kitchen in Killinchy offers a number of experiential packages with guests given the opportunity to take part in food tours of the local area and discover the culinary heritage of Northern Ireland with traditional bread making classes.
Samantha Corr, quality & standards manager at Tourism NI, said: “Tracey's Farmhouse Kitchen is a fabulous addition to the tourism offering for any visitor wishing to come and explore more of the County Down area.
“Tracey's bread-making experience fits perfectly with the vision of Tourism NI and the promotion of our all island food and drink initiative, Taste the Island. The farmhouse is an idyllic location for both international and local visitors to escape from their busy lives and truly relax.”
She added: “Tracey's superb hospitality and welcoming environment makes this experience so unique. We congratulate Tracey on this wonderful achievement and I would encourage everyone to try Tracey's fantastic food experience.”
Kitchen proprietor Tracey Jeffery added: “I'm delighted to receive this five-star grading from Tourism NI and to be recognised for something I'm truly passionate about.
“I love welcoming guests into my cosy and very lived-in kitchen. They roll their sleeves up and get stuck into bread making, and they feel a great sense of achievement when their soda bread is ready to eat. I take pride in offering guests a unique taste of what it is really like in this part of Northern Ireland.”


I promised previously to use this space for link sharing as well, so here goes the first instalment.
On Software:
Gender disparity in computer science is an often discussed topic, and the following is one of my favourite graphs on the topic:
This week, I read about another study that confirms that software development is not the meritocracy it is often claimed to be. - "Women considered better coders – but only if they hide their gender"
The researchers looked at approximately 3m pull requests submitted on GitHub, and found that code written by women was approved at a higher rate (78.6%) than code written by men (74.6%).
Looking for an explanation for this disparity, the researchers examined several different factors, such as whether women were making smaller changes to code (they were not) or whether women were outperforming men in only certain kinds of code (they were not).
But...
It was here that they made the disturbing discovery: women’s work was more likely to be accepted than men’s, unless “their gender is identifiable”, in which case the acceptance rate was worse than men’s.
And the golden
Jenny Bryan, a professor of statistics at the University of British Columbia, uses GitHub as a teacher and developer in R, a programming language. Her profile makes clear that she is a woman, and she doesn’t believe that she’s been discriminated against due to her gender.
“At the very most, men who don’t know me sometimes explain things to me that I likely understand better than they do,” she writes. “The men I interact with in the R community on GitHub know me and, if my genderhas any effect at all, I feel they go out of their way to support my efforts to learn and make more contributions.”
Trust Githubbers to attempt mansplaining R to a Stats Prof.
Machine Learning is a topic I am ostensibly interested in. This week, I discovered a really cool awesome-style list with a ton of ML resources.
Awesome Machine Learning Awesome: A curated list of awesome machine learning frameworks, libraries and software (by language).
A beautiful, beautiful tool and write-up by Dr. Martin O'Leary of Swansea University on how to generate imaginary maps and a companion piece on generating an imginary language to produce place names. Mind-blown twice: as a cartography nerd AND as someone who studied NLP.
I wanted to make maps that look like something you'd find at the back of one of the cheap paperback fantasy novels of my youth. I always had a fascination with these imagined worlds, which were often much more interesting than whatever luke-warm sub-Tolkien tale they were attached to.
Took me back to my childhood spent looking for, devouring and creating imaginary maps of my own.
On Sports:
A beautifully visual and data-rich NYT piece on how different countries dominated different arenas of the Olympics over the years, and how certain blocks dominate certain sports. Part of their excellent Olympic coverage.
Andrew Fernando's excellent write-up on the first day of the third test between Australia and Sri Lanka at the SSC. He keeps churning out these exceptional gems that make me proud to be Sri Lankan.
The SSC ground happens to be in the clotted heart of Colombo's administrative district. Yet, although the Australia team may never set foot inside the National Identity Card Centre, which is a few minutes away, or the Ministry of Public Administration and Management, which is visible from the ground, they were on day one of this Test, given a thorough government-office treatment. They were made to wait for hours, run around, given brief hope, which was promptly crushed; they were sneered at, and mistreated, and by the end of the day, they were ready to tear their hair out.
Bureaucrat-in-chief for Sri Lanka was Dhananjaya de Silva, whose maiden Test hundred was a thing of superlative casualness. So unfazed was he by a scoreline of 26 for 5 at his arrival, he was like the civil servant who comes to work to find a queue stretching around the building outside his office, yet before work takes a long tea-and-biscuit break while chit-chatting to colleagues. He stood slouched at the crease all day, unfurling somnolent drives, and languid flicks to the leg side, appearing as if he was doing almost nothing. Meanwhile, Australia chased leather all over; patrons shunted from room to room to room in the building, all, in the end, for no tangible reward.

On Conflict:
Col. Sylvester Perera's sobering account of the civil war in the 90s, and how lasting peace is yet to be achieved.
Operation Riviresa was one of the major operations conducted by Sri Lanka's armed forces against the LTTE, and it was both well-planned and well-coordinated. The primary objective of the operation was the capture and liberation of the town of Jaffna and the rest of the Jaffna peninsula. By contrast, during Operation Sath Jaya to capture the LTTE stronghold of Kilinochchi, the country's political leadership overrode the advice of military commanders and drove the army to stretch its forces beyond the practical limits of defense.
[...] the intelligence provided to the military lacked answers to the vital questions of when, where, what, and how—the most fundamental aspects of a useful intelligence picture. As a result, our operations either were ineffective or became nightmares of shock and surprise for our troops.
I realized that defeating an insurgency does not bring the conflict to a conclusive end. I had to put all my efforts into managing a post-conflict society for peace building, within a framework called disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration. Despite all our work, however, it seems that Sri Lanka is still facing these challenges [...]
D. B. S. Jeyaraj's article "Shelton Ranaraja: Principled Politician was Conscience-Keeper of the Nation" which contained some chilling excerpts from William Mcgowan's “Only man is Vile”.
The Kandyan jungle seemed so at peace just after dawn on that October morning in 1989. In the twisted thicket of palms, bamboo and bougainvillea that blanketed the hotel, a handful of iridescent parrots screeched cheery greetings to the first rays of sun as they splintered into a forest of prisms through the morning dew [...] But we turned left that morning, and we hadn’t driven even a mile when we saw our first body–a headless corpse, hands bound behind its back, blocking the road like a fallen tree. A few hundred yards farther, there were three more, then two more, then four more, all with their heads neatly severed at the shoulders.
Mr. Ranaraja expressed what I imagine a lot of people must've felt at that time:
That night, in his modest home near the Temple of the Sacred Relic in downtown Kandy, one of the island’s parliamentarians spoke with quiet frustration of the trauma that this awful era has caused his island paradise and its 14 million people–“We wake up in the morning, and we know tomorrow will be worse than today”–and he tried to square the living death with the religion that had taught them from birth the sacredness of all life.
“We’re not to kill even an animal or an ant,” Shelton Ranaraja said that evening, his body shaken and broken from the horrors that abounded in the peaceful jungle around him. “I don’t understand why this is happening. I cannot explain it.”
So very glad I got to skip the 80s.
So, that was a long write (and read, sorry!). I should try to keep these shorter from next time on.

Before I start, I realize that mixing substances like this can be dangerous, but I am a very frequent mind-flyer, and have done all the research possible for each of the substances BEFORE I tried them. Also, I realize slang changes over distance. when I talk about cones, I'm talking about marijuana.
It was my best friend's birthday, and what better way to celebrate his 18th than by going to the casino?? There were 4 of us, me, R, B and W who were participating in the 'experiment' and a couple of others who were just along for the ride (and a bit of a smoke, too). Me and W had to go for a BIGTIME trek to go pickup the supplies for the night.  This was the first time any of us had tried crack. We had a little bit of pot to smoke on the way back to make the long return trip more enjoyable.
Then me and W met up with R and B and went to our local smoking-hangout, where we proceeded to have our pills and a smoke. For the sake of caution, we all decided to only dump half a pill each (for now) and have a little smoke to pump ourselves up for the main event. We got a bit stoned, and in my confusion, I dropped my remaining 2 pills on the ground somewhere!! Well that pissed me off no end, and I wasn't sure if I was gonna have any fun, but we trudged on anyway, not really noticing any effect from the pills.
We found ourselves at this little kiddy park with a cool spinning thing right at the base of a very big, impressive. W divided the crack up into equal portions for us all (it came as a very hard rock of white powder).
W went first, and put a little bit of powder on top to try it. After a little while he said it was 'unbelievable' so I scooped up my entire portion for the night and smoked it in one go. About 3 minutes later I scrabbled for my Walkman and put on my favorite track, which started to peak in its crescendo as I did. I stood there for about 20mins with my eyes shut, swaying slightly, as I felt the music was a physical force, buffering me from side to side. Then my peak (which was by now as physical as the music was) flew up above my head and sat there for the tiniest fraction of a second, which then seemed to stretch out to eternity as I looked at my friends through the eyes of my peak. My actual eyes were shut this whole time, but to this day I can still picture exactly what my friends looked like as I stood there, lost in a microsecond.
Then, when I realized I was tensing up in preparation for something, I relaxed.
BOOOOOM!!!!
It came flying down from above, and speared through my head, right to the tips of my toes. PURE PLEASURE, MENTAL AND PHYSICAL.
I almost fell over with the rush that followed, and my closed eyes were now witness to a roller coaster ride that no one else will ever know about simply because it took off right from the point where words lose their meaning. I have had more intense experiences than this before, but none that took me so completely by surprise. It was as if it was waiting for me to relax before it began its beautiful onslaught of giddy pleasure.
After we had all had our experiences, we walked (a little unsteadily by now, since we were still smoking endless cones of pot) to the casino. We thought it would be fun, but it sucked big time, coz we kept getting lost looking for each other, and a way out. There were thousands and thousands of poker machines, and they just started driving everyone CrAZy with their DAMN ANNOYING NOISE!! We eventually found a way out, and met up with some more friends at the pub just up the main road from the casino. But everything seemed so insignificant after that beautiful, endless rush.
I don't know if I will ever try crack again, but I'm very glad that I tried it for my best friend's 18th, and I definitely don't recommend that anyone take a substance as seriously dangerous as cocaine without taking every possible precaution. Myself and all my friends have cell phones, and at the slightest hint of trouble, were ready to call for help.
Regarding comedowns: We all smoked such a ridiculous amount of pot, that we were high for a coupla days, and probably came down in our sleep.

Apollo Expeditions to the Moon
CHAPTER 7.5
LONG-DISTANCE SOLUTIONS
Apollo 16 had its unique problems and one was a major one of the instantaneous
and serious variety. Just after separation of the CSM from the LM, prior to initiating
final descent for the landing, a maneuver was to be performed by the command and
service module Casper to circularize its orbit around the Moon. Preparations for the
burn went well until a check was made of the secondary yaw gimbals. These gimbals
controlled the direction of thrust in yaw plane for the service propulsion system, a
system that was essential to insuring that the astronauts could get out of lunar orbit.
The gimbals appeared normal until the motor was started and then they exhibited
rapidly diverging oscillations. The two spacecraft were asked to rendezvous; and
Jim McDivitt, the Apollo Spacecraft Program Manager, met with Bob Gilruth and
me to tell us that it appeared to him that the mission would have to be terminated.
Another meeting in an hour was scheduled to review the bidding. By the time we had
the second meeting, the Operations Team, through extensive testing and simulations,
determined that the oscillations would have damped and the secondary servo system
was safe to use. John Young and Charlie Duke proceeded with the landing, as I reflected
on the phenomenal capabilities of a group of young engineers who had
solved a problem of a spacecraft 240,000 miles away from Earth.
Apollo 17, the final mission to the Moon, clearly demonstrated the maturity of
the Operations Team. For the first time, a manned launch was made at night. A landing
was made in the valley of Taurus-Littrow, the most difficult of any of the Apollo
landing sites. The spacecraft performed in an outstanding fashion, and there were
no major problems. Minor ones that did occur were handled without difficulty.
The problems encountered were all overcome due to the careful premission
preparation, rigorous testing, planning, training, and hours and hours spent simulating
critical phases of the mission with the flight crew. These simulations prepared the
controllers and the crew to respond to both normal and abnormal situations. Their
record speaks for itself on the adequacy of the training. This was not brought together
overnight, and in 1962 we were a long way from Taurus-Littrow.
The basic flight-control concepts used for Apollo were developed by a small
group of people on the Mercury Operations Team. In 1958, under the leadership of
Robert R. Gilruth, the Space Task Group had been given the fantastic responsibility
of placing a man in orbit around the Earth. Those few young men who assumed this
task did not have any previous experience on which to rely. It had never been done
before. What they did have was the willingness to tackle any job, and a technical
capability that they had attained through an apprenticeship in what I consider to
have been the Nation's finest technical organization, the National Advisory Committee
for Aeronautics. Other members of the Mercury Operations Team had experience
with aircraft development and flight testing with the Air Force and Navy or with
major aircraft companies, both within this country and in particular with AVRO of
Canada. That country's cancellation of the CF-105 with its attendant effect on the
AVRO program proved to be a blessing to the United States space program. Many
fine engineers came to work as members of the Space Task Group at Langley. Jim
Chamberlin, John Hodges, Tecwyn Roberts, Dennis Fielder, and Rod Rose, to name
a few. The operational concepts that were developed by this cadre on Mercury were
improved as experience was gained on each flight. As the Operations Team assumed
the responsibility for flying Gemini, the concepts were further developed, expanded,
and improved. There were many essential steps that had to be taken to get to the
Moon. For the Operations Team, Gemini was one.
Only a small group of people were involved in Mercury operations. When the
team was given the responsibility for flying Gemini, and with the Mercury flights
continuing, the organization had to be expanded. A conscious effort was made to
bring young people into the organization. With an abundance of recent college graduates,
the team took on a young character. The additions brought with them the
aggressiveness, initiative, and ingenuity that one finds in the young engineer. They
did not all come from major colleges; there were graduates of Southwestern State
College in Oklahoma, Willamette University in Oregon, San Diego State College,
Texas Wesleyan College, and Northeastern University in Boston, to name a few. A
large contingent of officers was also made available by the U.S. Air Force and this
group provided excellent support. I came to rely on these young people and I can
honestly say they never let me down.


Allmankind lands Triumph trial plunge at Cheltenham
by Sporting LifeAllmankind was a well-backed winner of the JCB Triumph Trial Juvenile Hurdle at Cheltenham on Saturday for Dan and Harry Skelton.
The three-year-old was very free when winning on his hurdles debut at Warwick and he was keen again at Cheltenham, but he still managed to make all despite that tendency.
Available at 13/2 on Friday, he returned the 11/4 winner with uneasy favourite Mick Pastor disappointing.
Sky Bet cut him to 20/1 from 33/1 for the Triumph Hurdle back at Cheltenham at the Festival in March.
"I thought those tactics were possible but not probable here," said Dan Skelton.
"If you think he's keen you should see him at home, he's much worse. There was no point running in a Mickey Mouse race and he's hard on himself at home, so we may as well take him to the races.
"At two they didn't think he was far off Derby standard, but he just got keener and keener. He's bull-headed, but to keep going in those conditions you need to be strong.
"He's shown us what he can do, so we'll go steady now and treat him with the respect he deserves and we'll aim to come back here in March.
"I can't see a reason to run much before then, maybe one race before it. If he hasn't boiled over today, I can't see why he would in March.
"I don't think we will go to Chepstow unless we try to give him something quiet and he doesn't want to have it. I think we will have one run three weeks before the Festival to get a little bit of the fizz out of him."

--- layout: post esbma_id: 1147 title: Tucows date: 2004-08-24 02:40:17 keywords: sol ---
Yesterday I submitted Winnable Solitaire to Tucows. I had never used Tucows before, so this has been a learning experience all its own. I decided to pay the $65 to expedite the review and approval of my app. They said the queue was about 49 days long if I didn't pay to be moved to the front of the line, although I have no way of verifying this obviously self-serving claim.
The Tucows reviewer gave me a rating of 3 cows out of 5. I'm not sure, but I don't think that's a very good review. They are reasonably specific about their review guidelines, so I assume that I would need to specifically tailor the app to get more cows. I'll add that task to my list of "things to do in my copious spare time".
I just checked their site and my app is now visible. It is supposed to show up highlighted in their What's New section on Wednesday.

Propensity Scores
- The Central Role of the Propensity Score in Observational Studies for Causal Effects, Rosenbaum and Rubin, 83
- Why Propensity Scores Should Not Be Used for Matching, King and Nielsen, 16
Introduction
- Observational Studies Settings + Goals
- Strong Ignorability
Definitions
- \(n\) study participants
- Two treatments, \(1\) and \(0\)
- \(z_i = 1\) (\(z_i = 0\)) if participant \(i\) received (didn't receive) treatment
- \(x_i\) a vector of observed pre-treatment covariates
- \(r_{1, i}\) and \(r_{0, i}\) are the response of participant \(i\).
Goal
Assess
$$
E\left[r_1\right] - E\left[r_0\right].
$$
given
$$
E\left[r_1 \;|\; z=1\right] - E\left[r_0 \;|\; z=0\right].
$$
Observational Setup Challenges
- \(r_1, r_0 \not\perp z\)
- Example: long/expensive smoking-addiction treatment
- \(z \not\perp x\)
- Example: adds targeting an ineffective age-group
Strongly-Ignorable Assignment
(Minimal requirements for avoiding GIGO)
An assignment \(z\) is
strongly ignorable if
- \(r_1, r_0 \perp z \;|\; x\)
- \(0 \lneq P(z = 1 \;|\; x) \lneq 1 \)
Theory
- Propensity As Coarsest Balancing Covariate
- Estimating Propensity
Balancing Scores & Propensity Scores
- A covariate function \(b(x)\) is a balancing score if
$$
r_1, r_0 \perp x \;|\; b(x).
$$
- The propensity score is the covariate function
$$
e(x) = P(z = 1 \;|\; x).
$$
Theorem: Relationship Balancing Scores & Propensity Scores
- Any refinement \( x \subseteq b(x) \subseteq e(x)\) is a balancing score.
- Any balancing score is a refinement \( x \subseteq b(x) \subseteq e(x)\).
Theorem: Balancing Scores Preserve Assignment Strongly-Ignorability
$$
r_1, r_0 \perp z \;|\; x, \;\; 0 \lneq P(z = 1 \;|\; x) \lneq 1
\Rightarrow
\\
r_1, r_0 \perp z \;|\; b(x), \;\; 0 \lneq P(z = 1 \;|\; b(x)) \lneq 1
$$
Theorem: Expectation Over Balancing Scores
$$
E_{b(x)}\left[ E[r_1 \;|\; b(x), z = 1] - E[r_0 \;|\; b(x), z = 0]\right]
=
\\
E[ r_1 - r_0].
$$
Estimating \(e(x)\) 1 / 4
Must estimate \(e(x)\) by some \(\hat{e}(x)\).
- Most direct method: $$\hat{e}(x) = \frac{\#x \;|\; z=1}{\#x}$$
-
Clearly applicable/useful only for distributions with small, discrete, support
Estimating \(e(x)\) 2 / 4
- Partition \(x\) into some \(\overline{x}\) with small, discrete, support
$$\hat{e}(\overline{x}) = \frac{\#\overline{x} \;|\; z=1}{\#\overline{x}}$$
-
Much literature about this; personally reminded me of CART / vector quantization.
Estimating \(e(x)\) 3 / 4
Use Bayes + estimate \(P(x \;|\; z)\) from parameteric family
$$
e(z \;|\; x) = P(z = 1 \;|; x) = \\
\frac{P(x \;|\; z)}{ P(x \;|\; z = 1) P(z = 1) + P(x \;|\; z = 1) P(z = 1)}.
$$
Estimating \(e(x)\) 4 / 4
Estimate \(e(x)\) from parametric family, e.g.,
$$
\ln\left( \frac{e(x)}{1 - e(x)} \right) = \beta^t x.
$$
Applications
- Matching
- Subclassification
- Inverse Probability Weighting
- Covariance Adjustment
Matching

THE WIFE A film review by James Berardinelli Copyright 1996 James Berardinelli
RATING (0 TO 10): 7.0 Alternative Scale: *** out of ****
United States, 1995 U.S. Release Date: beginning 9/96 (limited) Running Length: 1:41 MPAA Classification: No MPAA Rating (Profanity, mature themes,=20 brief nudity) Theatrical Aspect Ratio: 1.85:1 Shown at the Philadelphia Festival of World Cinema, 5/2/96
Cast: Tom Noonan, Wallace Shawn, Karen Young, Julie Hagerty Director: Tom Noonan Producers: Scott Macaulay and Robin O'Hara Screenplay: Tom Noonan Cinematography: Joe DeSalvo Music: Tom Noonan
Tom Noonan's 1994 debut, WHAT HAPPENED WAS=85, remains one of the=20 creepiest, most incisive motion pictures ever made about a first date. =20 It's a strange, disturbing piece that focuses on two characters trying,=20 and failing, to connect during an intimate evening. Now, some two years=20 later, Noonan is back with THE WIFE, an equally edgy drama about how an=20 unplanned dinner party tears at the fabric of a pair of unstable=20 marriages.
The setup is reasonably simple. We are introduced to Jack (Noonan)=20 and his wife, Rita (Julie Hagerty), a pair of New Age therapists whose=20 marriage is on the rocks -- they are profoundly incompatible and=20 uncommunicative. One snowy night, they are visited at their secluded=20 New York state demesne by one of their patients, Cosmo (Wallace Shawn),=20 who has brought his wife, Arlie (Karen Young), to meet his therapists. =20 When the spirited Arlie decides to invite herself and her husband to=20 dinner, the stage is set for all sorts of revelations.
Despite the inclusion of some low-key comedy, THE WIFE is basically=20 a claustrophobic downer (although not as claustrophobic as WHAT HAPPENED=20 WAS=85). In addition to dissecting the lives of his four main characters,= =20 Noonan rips into therapists in general and New Age therapists in=20 particular. This is not a nice, "touchy-feely" film about people being=20 healed by getting in touch with their inner selves. Instead, it's about=20 damaged men and women trapped in dysfunctional relationships. =20
The script keenly observes various elements of human nature, and=20 numerous scenes are startling in the clarity and intelligence with which=20 the characters are presented. On the other hand, Noonan has a tendency=20 to write pretentious dialogue, and certain passages are cluttered with=20 needless verbiage. For the most part, the intimate moments work; those=20 that concentrate on globally philosophical issues tend to sputter.
Karen Young, who has had small parts in a number of major studio=20 features, is explosive as the unpredictable Arlie, and, in many ways,=20 her vivacity holds the film together. Wallace Shawn is his usual steady=20 self as a neurotic, nearly-"normal" man who "can't go on" with his=20 marriage as it is. Noonan, with a quietly-intense, almost-sinister=20 performance, paints an unsettling portrait of Jack as someone who=20 derives sadistic pleasure from probing open emotional wounds. Julie=20 Hagerty, better known for comic roles (AIRPLANE, WHAT ABOUT BOB?), plays=20 a woman who craves closeness with an aloof husband.
The technical and visual aspects of THE WIFE engage the attention. =20 Noonan constantly toys with odd camera angles, distorted perspectives,=20 and shots involving reflected images. One scene has characters viewed=20 through a window overlapping those reflected in it. Another uses=20 mirrors to depict two physically-distanced conversations in the same=20 frame. As in WHAT HAPPENED WAS=85, lighting is used to great effect. On=20 one occasion, the light from a flickering fire playing on Jack's=20 features gives him a demonic appearance.
With its echoes of WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOLFE? and its use of=20 the European style of moving the story forward through dialogue rather=20 than action (this could almost be Eric Rohmer at his grimmest), THE WIFE=20 consistently challenges viewers. It stumbles occasionally (sometimes=20 noticeably), and isn't as hypnotizing as WHAT HAPPENED WAS=85, but many of= =20 Noonan's observations about how men and women interact are on-target. =20 By turns uncomfortable and fascinating, THE WIFE offers a unique=20 perspective of the age-old institution of marriage. =20

This model demonstrates the usage of model Parts.PointMass in a point gravity field. The PointMass model has the feature that the rotation is not taken into account and can therefore also not be calculated. This example demonstrates two cases where this does not matter: If a PointMass is not connected (body1, body2), the orientation object in these point masses is set to a unit rotation. If a PointMass is connected by a line force element, such as the used Forces.LineForceWithMass component, then the orientation object is set to a unit rotation within the line force element. These are the two cases where the rotation is automatically set to a default value, when the physical system does not provide the equations.

About a month ago I wrote about my continued tribulations with setting up a Rails installation locally on my dev machine. Once I figured things out, I codified it into a repository holding a simple Hello World! on Rails. Then I wondered what it was like to set up some other backend systems, so I made a collection of Hello World! examples for django, sinatra and node, all deployable locally or on Heroku. Of these, I think that Django actually was my favorite in terms of how the dev environment operates and how code is structured, even though I don’t like Python as a programming language very much.
Also, these are all interpreted languages, and I like to work with compiled languages for applications if possible. (I usually use interpreted languages for complicated scripting that’s too complicated for shell scripts.) I learned enough Rust to put together a Hello World!, and then it occurred to me that there’s another compiled language I can use on the server, that I already know well, and love: Swift!
So I created a Swift server Hello World! using Vapor, which has quite an ecosystem around it today via vapor and vapor-community on GitHub, which have tons of helpful tools for backend needs:
…and lots more. I implemented another example of a Vapor server app with a PostgreSQL database connection, deployable on Heroku: vapor-postgres.
