Businessmodel of Canonical
Customer Segments
Canonical has a segmented market business model, with customer groups that have slightly different needs. The company targets its offerings at businesses and governments.
Value Proposition
Canonical offers five primary value propositions: accessibility, convenience, pricing, performance, and brand/status.
The company creates accessibility by providing a wide variety of options. It makes Ubuntu available worldwide through retail channels, most major public clouds, and its network of partners. In addition, the platform runs on several devices, including computers, smartphones, tablets, and TVs.
The company offers convenience by making life simpler for customers. It provides employees to assist with all aspects of Ubuntu management, from design and development to training and certification to support.
The company offers a pricing value proposition. Customers can download, use, and share Ubuntu for free. Moreover, they can try its complementary tool Landscape free for 30 days.
The company demonstrates strong performance through tangible results. It helped the Penn Manor school district set up a network of 1,700 Ubuntu laptops. In one year, savings on license fees for the computers (as compared to an alternative laptop) amounted to $200 per laptop, a total of $345,000.
The company has established a strong brand due to its success. It touts Ubuntu as the leading operating system for cloud operations – used by most public cloud workloads, new smart gateways, advanced robots, self-driving c ars, and switches.
Thanks to Canonical’s work with top phone and PC manufacturers, Ubuntu is available on computers sold at more than 3,000 retailers in China, India, and Mexico. All major hardware vendors, software vendors, system integrators and cloud providers have certified their technologies on Ubuntu. Lastly, Canonical has staff members operating in over 30 countries worldwide.
Channels
Canonical’s main channels are retail channels, major public clouds, and its network of partners. The company promotes its offerings through its website, social media pages, and conferences.
Customer Relationships
Canonical’s customer relationship is primarily of a personal assistance nature. The company assists customers with its flagship service, Ubuntu Advantage, through which it does the following:
- Plan and Install – The company builds and installs a solution on trial systems, monitors it, then provides deployment recommendations
- Deploy – The company configures and then deploys the system
- Train – The company trains clients on how to manage their deployments
- Manage – The company works with client teams to monitor and optimize their deployments on an ongoing basis, offering 24/7 phone, e-mail, and portal support Despite this orientation, there is a self-service component. The company maintains the Canonical Knowledge Base, an online library of articles about technical issues. It is available exclusively to Ubuntu Advantage subscribers. It also offers Landscape, a systems management tool designed to monitor and support networks of desktops, clouds, and servers.
It provides features such as automated updates and deployment of its reference architecture OpenStack cloud. Furthermore, the firm‘s website offers the Ubuntu design blog, with articles written by the Canonical design team.
Lastly, there is a community element in the form of a peer forum where clients can interact.
Key Activities
Canonical’s business model entails designing, developing, and delivering its services to its customers.
Key Partners
Canonical partners with other firms to help them sell its offerings or enhance usage of the offerings for the firms’ customers. The types of partners are:
- Public Cloud – As part of its public cloud providers program, Canonical provides optimized Ubuntu images, management, and commercial support to the biggest clouds in the world.
- OpenStack – The company uses an integration lab called OpenStack Interoperability Lab to test its cloud partners’ products in various Ubuntu OpenStack configurations.
- Charm – The Charm Partner Program is described as the fastest route for ISVs and solution providers to take advantage of all that the Ubuntu cloud and server ecosystem has to offer.
- Software – The company provides a range of tools, programs, and trainings to independent software vendors (ISVs).
- Hardware – The company offers an end-to-end solution for manufacturers of AMD, Intel, and ARM-based servers and client devices, including Dell, HP, and Lenovo.
- Phone – Through the Ubuntu Carrier Advisory Group (CAG), the company gives handset makers and mobile network carriers the opportunity to help shape Ubuntu’s mobile strategy.
- Retail – The company offers marketing materials to help retailers increase traffic, profits, and revenues through the sale of PCs pre-loaded with Ubuntu.
- Channel – The company enables channel partners to provide management and support for Ubuntu, expanding their service portfolios.
- Internet of Things – The company enables makers of smart devices to sell software to their customers and deliver updates on the open Ubuntu Core platform. Specific partners include the following: Asus, EMC, Intel, AMD, Emulex, and Amazon Web Services.
Beyond these partners, Canonical also works with developers by providing with Ubuntu sofware developer kits they can use to create relevant applications.
Key Resources
Canonical’s main resources are its human resources, who include the more than 500 designers, developers, and project managers that help design, develop, and deliver its services. Many are Ubuntu desktop, server, and cloud experts.
Cost Structure
Canonical has a personal assistance structure, providing a premium proposition through significant personal service and frequent service enhancements. Its biggest cost driver is likely sales/marketing, a variable expense. Other major drivers are in the areas of customer support and cost of services.
Revenue Streams
Canonical has one revenue stream: revenues it generates from the sale of technical support and other Ubuntu-related services to customers. Sales typically occur through the formation of contracts.

School breakfast programme being revitalised in St Elizabeth
Over 2,000 acres of farmland on the Holland Estate in St Elizabeth have been identified to grow produce for the school breakfast programme for students which is being revitalised across the parish.
Minister without Portfolio in the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, and Agriculture, J C Hutchinson, made the announcement during the Eat Jamaican School Tour at Holland Primary School on Friday.
“We have taken all of that [land] out of cane… and small farmers are now planting various types of cash crops there. That is one of the main areas where we are going to be getting most of our food from,” he said.
Hutchinson indicated that the initiative will be piloted at Holland Primary School and subsequently introduced to other institutions.
“ We are going to be assisting in providing local food within the schools for the children. We have seen the benefits. It has been proven that it helps the children in their attendance and also helps them with their grades,” he further stated.
The breakfast programme will also include the provision of nutritious juices derived from locally-grown fruits.
The tour was one of several activities to mark Eat Jamaican Month during November.
It was jointly organised with the Rural Agricultural Development Authority and Jamaica Agricultural Society.
Principal of Holland Primary School, Simone Doctor, told JIS News that between 80 to 120 students at the institution are fed under the breakfast programme daily.

Restore Us to Yourself, O LORD
1 Remember, O LORD, what has befallen us;
look, and see our disgrace!
2 Our inheritance has been turned over to strangers,
our homes to foreigners.
3 We have become orphans, fatherless;
our mothers are like widows.
4 We must pay for the water we drink;
the wood we get must be bought.
5 Our pursuers are at our necks;
we are weary; we are given no rest.
6 We have given the hand to Egypt, and to Assyria,
to get bread enough.
7 Our fathers sinned, and are no more;
and we bear their iniquities.
8 Slaves rule over us;
there is none to deliver us from their hand.
9 We get our bread at the peril of our lives,
because of the sword in the wilderness.
10 Our skin is hot as an oven
with the burning heat of famine.
11 Women are raped in Zion,
young women in the towns of Judah.
12 Princes are hung up by their hands;
no respect is shown to the elders.
13 Young men are compelled to grind at the mill,
and boys stagger under loads of wood.
14 The old men have left the city gate,
the young men their music.
15 The joy of our hearts has ceased;
our dancing has been turned to mourning.
16 The crown has fallen from our head;
woe to us, for we have sinned!
17 For this our heart has become sick,
for these things our eyes have grown dim,
18 for Mount Zion which lies desolate;
jackals prowl over it.
19 But you, O LORD, reign forever;
your throne endures to all generations.
20 Why do you forget us forever,
why do you forsake us for so many days?
21 Restore us to yourself, O LORD, that we may be restored!
Renew our days as of old—
22 unless you have utterly rejected us,
and you remain exceedingly angry with us.

THIS POST IS NO LONGER ENTIRELY RELEVANT. DPLYR 0.7 HAS A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT (AND SLIGHTLY MORE INTUITIVE) WAY OF WORKING WITH NON-STANDARD EVALUATION.
I love the dplyr package with all of its functions, however if you use normal dplyr in functions in your package r-cmd-check will give you a warning: R CMD check NOTE: No visible binding for global variable NAME OF YOUR VARIABLE
1. The functions do work, and everything is normal, however if you submit your package to CRAN, such a NOTE is not acceptable. A workaround is to add globalVariables to one of your scripts. for instance:
globalVariables(c("var1", "var2", "varyourmother")
)
Which works but it is not necessary.
NSE
dplyr (and some other packages and functions) work with non-standard-evaluation (NSE). One example is library(magrittr)
vs library("magrittr")
, both work. But
install.packages(magrittr)
vs install.packages("magrittr")
is different, you need the quotes. In almost all the functions in r when you name a part of an object you need the quotes but in some functions you don’t. They are designed to work in a non-standard way. Some even miss a standard way.
I will focus on the dplyr functions only, a general introduction to NON standard evaluation might come later.
Under the hood the dplyr functions work just as other functions, in fact all the functions use normal evaluation (standard evaluation), but for interactive use there is a non standard evaluation version, which saves you typing. The interactive version is then first evaluated with the lazyeval package and is then sent to the SE version. There is even a naming scheme 2: > Every function that uses NSE should have a standard evaluation (SE) escape hatch that does the actual computation. The SE-function name should end with _.
Therefore there are multiple verbs: select(), select(), mutate(), mutate(), etc. Under the hood select()
is evaluated with the lazyeval package and sent to select_()
.
In functions you should use the SE versions, not only to stop notes from creating, but also because it gives you extra options.
From NSE (the standard interactive use) to SE (standard evalation within functions
So this is a list of things i regularly do with NSE and their translation in SE.
I will use the data file about students in higher education in the Netherlands.
background
There are basicaly three ways to quote variables that dplyr/ lazyeval understands:
- with a formula
~mean(mpg)
- with quote()
quote(mean(mpg))
- as a string
"mean(mpg)"
Select()
Example of the select function from dplyr.
library(dplyr)
# first the normal NSE version
select(duo2015_tidy, OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, FREQUENCY)
# standard evaluation
select_(duo2015_tidy, ~OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL)
select_(duo2015_tidy, ~OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, ~FREQUENCY) # comma doesn't work, + doesn't work
select_(duo2015_tidy, quote(OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, FREQUENCY)) # nope
select_(duo2015_tidy, quote(OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL), quote(FREQUENCY)) # yes!
select_(duo2015_tidy, "OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL", "FREQUENCY", "YEAR", "OPLEIDINGSFASE.ACTUEEL") # works
Output:

2 B Aarde en Economie 54

4 B Aarde en Economie 52
5 B Aarde en Economie 132
6 B Aarde en Economie 55
7 B Aarde en Economie 144
Filter()
Then the filter function ( I also use the select function here)
# ways that work.
filter(duo2015_tidy, YEAR ==2015) %>% select(OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, FREQUENCY)
filter_(duo2015_tidy, ~YEAR ==2015) %>% select_(~OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, ~FREQUENCY)
filter_(duo2015_tidy, quote(YEAR ==2015)) %>% select_(~OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, ~FREQUENCY)
filter_(duo2015_tidy, "YEAR ==2015") %>% select_(~OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, ~FREQUENCY)
# or with a list to dots.
dotsfilter <- list(~OPLEIDINGSNAAM.ACTUEEL, ~FREQUENCY)
filter_(duo2015_tidy, "YEAR ==2015") %>% select_(.dots = dotsfilter)
output:

Group_by() & Summarize()
Group_by and summarize examples, see also the NSE vignette on dplyr 3.
group_by(duo2015_tidy, GENDER) %>% summarise(total = n())
# group by in SE, and summarize with NSE
group_by_(duo2015_tidy, ~GENDER) %>% summarise(total = sum(FREQUENCY))
# both NSE, pass list of arguments to .dots
group_by_(duo2015_tidy, ~GENDER) %>% summarise_(.dots = list(~total = sum(FREQUENCY))) # does not work
group_by_(duo2015_tidy, ~GENDER) %>% summarise_(.dots = list(~sum(FREQUENCY))) # does work.
dots <- list(~sum(FREQUENCY))
group_by_(duo2015_tidy, ~GENDER) %>% summarise_(.dots = dots)
group_by_(duo2015_tidy, ~GENDER) %>% summarise_(.dots = setNames(dots, "total"))
group_by_(duo2015_tidy, ~GENDER) %>% summarise_("sum(FREQUENCY)")

Mutate() and slightly more advanced use
You want to add two columns up, but you don’t yet know which columns that will be (example from Paul Hiemstra4).
# normal interactive use
library(dplyr)
mtcars %>% mutate(new_column = mpg + wt)
So you would like a function that does something like this:
f <- function(col1, col2, new_col_name) {
mtcars %>% mutate(new_col_name = col1 + col2)
}
The problem is that r will search for col1 and col2, which don’t exist. Furthermore the name of the endresult will be new_col_name, and not the content of new_col_name. To get around non-standard evaluation, you can use the lazyeval package. The following function does what we expect:
f <- function(col1, col2, new_col_name) {
mutate_call <- lazyeval::interp(~ a + b, a = as.name(col1), b = as.name(col2))
mtcars %>% mutate_(.dots = setNames(list(mutate_call), new_col_name))
}
You first create a call that will be evaluated by mutate_ . the call is first interpreted so that the final and correct names are used by mutate_
Of course if you already knew wich varibles you would use, there is no need for interpretation, and something like this would work:
mtcars %>% mutate_(.dots = setNames(list(~mpg+wt), "sum mpg wt"))
mtcars %>% mutate_(.dots = list(~mpg+wt)) # if you don't need the name specified
NSE in context
So if you want to use the dplyr functions in your own functions these are some variants that you could use. See the list of References and Notes for more information.

Wang Qiansheng
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Hangzhou, China
Who am I?
I’m a master graduate mainly interested in A.I., especially NLP and the A.I. system. Before my graduate school, I had four years of experience as a software engineer.
Especially, I am developing the deep learning library InsNet since the year 2017 because I believe that it is important to exploit linguistic knowledge and language structures to design computationally efficient models. Still, PyTorch is not convenient enough to explore such approaches.
How did I get interested in NLP?
Long before I get interested in NLP, I got my favorite hobby, which is the game of Go. The rule of Go is straightforward, but it leads to the most complicated game states, which is fascinating.
In 2011, I developed a Go A.I. using MCTS (Monte Carlo tree search) when I was doing my undergraduate thesis. And one year later, I rewrote the program on Github and named it as FoolGo. The Go A.I. was an unpopular topic ten years ago, and I had never expected that FoolGo would gain hundreds of stars around the game of AlphaGo vs. Lee Sedol.
Surprised by the fact that MCTS with neural networks can master the game of Go, I quit my job as a Java developer. I went back to college to study A.I. and finally chose NLP as my research field, for NLP is related to my work experience of search server development.
How do I do NLP research?
I develop our own deep learning library InsNet and use it to conduct NLP research. Specifically, I have conducted three research projects using InsNet as follows:
Unseen stance detection with adversarial domain generalization. I proposed the idea of adversarial domain generalization and reproduced the baseline, and then led the first author to conduct experiments and write the paper. The paper Unseen Stance Detection with Adversarial Domain Generalization is accepted by IJCNN 2020 as the oral report.
Cue-word driven open-domain conversation. I proposed the idea of this work, conducted experiments, and wrote the paper. The paper Cue-word driven Neural Response Generation with a Shrinking Vocabulary is still a preprint, but my supervisor Dr. Fu really appreciates this work.
Stance-conditioned open-domain conversation. This is my master’s thesis work. It contains three parts: 1) I used a conversation dataset to train the language models and then finetuned them using thousands of instances with human-annotated stances, resulting in several stance classifiers. Finally, I chose the best classifier to generate pseudo stance labels. 2) I developed the stance-conditioned conversation model and conducted experiments to compare different stance fusion and decoding approaches. Finally, 3) I developed a retrieve-and-refine model and conducted experiments to compare several settings.
Compared with PyTorch, what’s special about InsNet?
InsNet uses padding-free dynamic batching making it super easy to build instance-dependent models, such as tree-LSTM and hierarchical Transformer(an example). Besides, it has low GPU memory usage since no padding is needed. I have done preliminary benchmarks.
For the moment, it supports rich operators and prepared NLP modules such as LSTM and Transformer. See APIs for more details.
Why do I want to pursue a PhD?
- Compared to when I was working as a Java developer, I really enjory NLP research these years.
- Especially, I believe that using language structures (rather than structure agnostic sparse attention), we can design computationally efficient models to parse long sequences.
- Besides, InsNet may be an excellent tool to explore such novel approaches.

Inspired by the orange wines we have been seeing everywhere we decided to give it a go. We picked up 100lbs of chardonnay picked at 22 brix and manually destemmed and crushed the grapes. The wine then sat on skins for 6 weeks until it was pressed into a carboy with this beautiful orange hue.
 An explosion of summer in your mouth!

Concepts
Container networking with Contiv is as easy as creating networks and assigning containers to the networks. The advantage of Contiv is that you can apply policies to govern the security, bandwidth, priority, and other parameters for container applications.
Containers vs. VMs
Containers are a more efficient use of resources than Virtual Machines(VMs). VMs isolate resources at the operating system level. Containers share a single Operating System and kernel between isolated tenants, reducing time spent in patching and updating several operating systems.
Groups
A group (or an application group) identifies a policy domain for a container or a pod. The grouping is an arbitrary collection of containers that share a specific application domain, for example all production,frontend containers, or backup,long-running containers. This association is often done by specifying a label for the group.
Most notably, an application group or tier in Contiv has no one-to-one mapping to a network or an IP subnet of a network. This encourages you to group applications based on their roles and functions, and have many application groups belong to one network or an IP subnet.
Policies
A policy describes an operational behavior on a group of containers. The operational behavior can be enforcement, allocation, prioritation, traffic redirection, stats collection, or other action on the group on which the policy is applied.
Contiv supports two types of policies:
- Bandwidth - limiting the overall resource use of a group
- Isolation - limiting the access of a group
A group can be associated with more than one policy and in this case all policies are applied to the group. For example, a bandwidth policy could specify a limit on bandwidth consumption, while an isolation policy specifies from which addresses the container can be accessed. When a container is scheduled in this group, both policies are applied to it.
Policies follow the container independent of where it is scheduled. Therefore, policy is specified for a given cluster, but enforcement done on the host where container is scheduled.
Network
Network is an IPv4 or IPv6 subnet that may be provided with a default gateway. For
example, a network can map to a subnet <IP_ADDRESS>/24
that has a default gateway
of <IP_ADDRESS>

Application developers usually don't care which network an application belongs to. The network association of an application becomes relevant when the application must be exposed to an external network, to allow non-container workloads or clients to communicate with it.
Networks in Contiv
Contiv allows you to define two types of networks:
- application network - Network used by container workloads
- infrastructure network - Create a virtual network in the host namespace. For example, infrastructure networks are used by the virtual layer of host-resident infrastructure services such as monitoring.
Network Encapsulation
There are two types of network encapsulation in Contiv:
- Routed - useful for overlay topology and L3-routed BGP topology
- Bridged - useful for connecting to a layer2 VLAN network
Tenant
Tenants provide the namespace isolation for Contiv. A tenant can have many networks, each with its own subnet address. A user within that tenant namespace can create networks with arbtrary subnet addresses, and re-use subnet IP addresses in other tenants.
A tenant in the physical network is called virtual routing and forwarding (VRF). Depending on the mode of external connectivity (layer2, layer3, or Cisco ACI), the Contiv forwarding layer communicates the tenant to the external network using a VLAN or VXLAN ID. The Contiv routing plane (like BGP) is used to communicate the VRF-ID to rest of the network.

Since one of the main objectives of this project is the creation of an active perception unit for the detection of objects with high accuracy for further manipulation, it is fundamental to demonstrate the capability of replicating the bin-picking process in different settings. To do so, the robot together with the Kinect and the laser sensor were placed on a mobile platform which belongs to the ROBONUC platform. The ROBONUC was developed in the Laboratory for Automation and Robotics (LAR) for the combination of a mobile robot with a manipulator. Therefore, this platform is composed by the Robuter II which is a mobile platform and a FANUC manipulator. The following sketch and picture show the manipulator with the developed vision system already on the the Robuter II.
The demonstration was performed similarly to the previous tests after the mobile platform moved itself closer to a table with different scattered objects, placing the manipulator in the correct position to perform the bin-picking process of the objects. The results obtained in this demonstration were similar to the ones from the fourth test, thus demonstrating the potential of this bin-picking process in different settings.

Hannah Jeter said she went into hiding after gaining 70 pounds during pregnancy
by Sasha SavitskyHannah Jeter opened up about struggling to get back into shape after giving birth to her children.
Hannah, 29, shares two daughters with husband, Derek Jeter -- Story Grey and Bella Raine.
She told Editorialist Magazine "I went into hiding" after gaining 70 pounds in her first pregnancy and 55 in her second.
SUPERMODEL HANNAH JETER POSED FOR SPORTS ILLUSTRATED WHEN SHE WAS PREGNANT, MAG SAYS
"No one really saw me, but I have pictures," the model said. "I alw
ays thought, you know, I’m going to have kids and go right back to work and pop back into shape and it’s not that easy."
She said after trying intermittent fasting, she began to lose weight, had more energy and "just felt incredible."

Jeter, 29, says she tries to limit her kids screen time and runs to Michael’s craft store “like, twice a week. Most days my husband comes home and he’s like, ‘Holy crap’ — because I’m covered in paint or glue. I was literally painting a birdhouse yesterday.”

By default, all buttons in the body content are styled as block-level element so they fill the width of the screen:
ButtonHowever, if you want a more compact button that is only as wide as the text and icons inside, add the data-inline="true"
attribute to the button:
If you have multiple buttons that should sit side-by-side on the same line, add the data-inline="true"
attribute to each button. This will style the buttons to be the width of their content and float the buttons so they sit on the same line.

The result is this:
Cancel SaveAdding the data-mini="true"
to the inline buttons creates a more compact version:
If you want buttons to sit side-by-side but stretch to fill the width of the screen, you can use the content column grids to put normal full-width buttons into 2- or 3-columns.
When an icon is added to an inline button, the button will grow wider to accommodate the icon:

Class that emits particles with customizable initial conditions.
This emitter is universal with respect to the initial conditions of each emitted particle. It works with callbacks that return initial values for the particle attributes (position, rotation, color, ...). So you can pass constants, random distributions, or any functions that compute the value in an arbitrary way.

@Joris: Thanks for your code (it's helpful to have here for reference and makes a good complement to the previous code for urlencode and reposted just now in the comments at http://phpjs.org/functions/urlencode ), but I went ahead with the faster use of decodeURIComponent().

// Supports 4 byte characters (so unicode characters 0x0000 through 0x10FFFF)

You could probably rewrite it to use only one loop, but that would turn into spaghetti code very fast

Sorry, it looks like to fully reflect PHP's behavior, you have to add this to the histogram (all of our other related functions should be converted accordingly as well):
histogram['\u20AC'] = '%80';
histogram['\u0081'] = '%81';
histogram['\u201A'] = '%82';
histogram['\u0192'] = '%83';
histogram['\u201E'] = '%84';
histogram['\u2026'] = '%85';
histogram['\u2020'] = '%86';
histogram['\u2021'] = '%87';
histogram['\u02C6'] = '%88';
histogram['\u2030'] = '%89';
histogram['\u0160'] = '%8A';
histogram['\u2039'] = '%8B';
histogram['\u0152'] = '%8C';
histogram['\u008D'] = '%8D';
histogram['\u017D'] = '%8E';
histogram['\u008F'] = '%8F';
histogram['\u0090'] = '%90';
histogram['\u2018'] = '%91';
histogram['\u2019'] = '%92';
histogram['\u201C'] = '%93';
histogram['\u201D'] = '%94';
histogram['\u2022'] = '%95';
histogram['\u2013'] = '%96';
histogram['\u2014'] = '%97';
histogram['\u02DC'] = '%98';
histogram['\u2122'] = '%99';
histogram['\u0161'] = '%9A';
histogram['\u203A'] = '%9B';
histogram['\u0153'] = '%9C';
histogram['\u009D'] = '%9D';
histogram['\u017E'] = '%9E';
histogram['\u0178'] = '%9F';
and then add this line right before the call to decodeURIComponent():
ret = ret.replace(/%([a-fA-F][0-9a-fA-F])/g, function (all, hex) {return String.fromCharCode('0x'+hex);}); // These Latin-B have the same values in Unicode, so we can convert them like this

Found an apparent bug... I'll try to track it down, but I'm a javascript noob.
<? print rawurldecode('-22%97bc%2Fbc'); ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
var foo = rawurldecode('-22%97bc%2Fbc');
alert(foo);
</script>
php part works fine, js breaks.
firebug reports:
malformed URI sequence
rawurldecode("-22%97bc%2Fbc")
And, yes, this string comes from encoding in php with rawurlencode (from a big nasty db response).


Echo Server
The application we are going to create is a very simple Echo Server, this is a server that will receive a message from a client and then echo back the same message to all clients connected to the server, this is the simplest implementation of WebSockets.
Step 1: Pre-requisites
Before creating the server, we need to make sure everything is set up correctly, Node.js must be installed and the project directories should be created with this terminal command:
mkdir EchoServer
cd EchoServer
touch Package.swift
mkdir Sources
cd Sources
mkdir ChatServer
cd ChatServer
touch ChatService.swift
touch main.swift
You can use Swift for the client, however for simplicitiy we are using Node.js in this example.
Step 2: Setting up the Server
Add the following content to your Package.swift file, replacing "x.x.x" with the latest releases of Kitura, HeliumLogger, Kitura-WebSocket and Kitura-WebSocket-NIO:
import PackageDescription
let package = Package(
name: "ChatServer",
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/IBM-Swift/Kitura.git", .upToNextMinor(from: "x.x.x")),
.package(url: "https://github.com/IBM-Swift/HeliumLogger.git", from: "x.x.x"),
],
targets: [
.target(
name: "ChatServer",
dependencies: ["Kitura", "HeliumLogger", "Kitura-WebSocket"]),
]
// Use alternate implementation of Kitura-WebSocket while building in NIO mode
if ProcessInfo.processInfo.environment["KITURA_NIO"] != nil {
dependencies.append(.package(url: "https://github.com/IBM-Swift/Kitura-WebSocket-NIO.git", from: "x.x.x"))
} else {
dependencies.append(.package(url: "https://github.com/IBM-Swift/Kitura-WebSocket.git", from: "x.x.x"))
}
)
This code snippet allows either Kitura-WebSocket or Kitura-WebSocket-NIO packages to be used.
Add the following to your ChatService.swift file:
import Foundation
import KituraWebSocket
class ChatService: WebSocketService {
private var connections = [String: WebSocketConnection]()
let connectionTimeout: Int? = 60
public func connected(connection: WebSocketConnection) {
connections[connection.id] = connection
}
public func disconnected(connection: WebSocketConnection, reason: WebSocketCloseReasonCode) {
connections.removeValue(forKey: connection.id)
}
public func received(message: Data, from: WebSocketConnection) {
from.close(reason: .invalidDataType, description: "Chat-Server only accepts text messages")
connections.removeValue(forKey: from.id)
}
public func received(message: String, from: WebSocketConnection) {
for (connectionId, connection) in connections {
if connectionId != from.id {
connection.send(message: message)
}
}
}
}
}
The class has a Dictionary, connections, which is used to keep track of the connections of all of the connected clients. The Dictionary is maintained by the connected and disconnected functions, which are, respectively, adding and removing connections from the dictionary.
The received function, which receives binary messages, is rejecting the message, closing the client connection and removing the connection from the set of known connections.
Lastly, the received function, which receives text messages, simply echoes the message received to all clients except the one who sent the message.
It should be noted that all of these functions can be invoked from many threads simultaneously. In real applications, one should add locking around the access of non-thread safe artifacts of the application such as the connections Dictionary in this very simplistic example.
Add the following to your main.swift file:
import Foundation
import KituraNet
import KituraWebSocket
import HeliumLogger
import LoggerAPI
// Using an implementation for a Logger
HeliumLogger.use(.info)
WebSocket.register(service: ChatService(), onPath: "chat")
class ChatServerDelegate: ServerDelegate {
public func handle(request: ServerRequest, response: ServerResponse) {}
}
// Add HTTP Server to listen on port 8080
let server = HTTP.createServer()
server.delegate = ChatServerDelegate()
do {
try server.listen(on: 8080)
ListenerGroup.waitForListeners()
} catch {
Log.error("Error listening on port 8080: \(error).")
}
The HeliumLogger is set up to log info, warning, and error type messages.
The ChatService defined in the ChatService.swift file is registered on the path chat.
An HTTP server is created and setup to listen on port 8080.
With this server set up clients should connect to the chat service as ws://host:8080/chat, where host is the host running the server.
Step 3: Setting up the Client
The client has a simple command line interface. At startup one passes the host and port number. The client simply reads messages to be sent from the terminal and displays messages received on the terminal as well.
To create a new directory for the client, exit out of your server directory and run this terminal command:
mkdir EchoClient
cd EchoClient
touch package.json
touch chat.js
Add the following content to your package.json file:
{
"name": "chat",
"description": "Simple chat server client",
"version": "0.0.1",
"engines": {
"node": ">=0.8.0"
},
"dependencies": {
"websocket": "^1.0.23"
}
}
Then add the following content to your chat.js file:
/* main file of Simple Chat Server Client */
var readline = require('readline');
var WebSocketClient = require('websocket').client
var host = process.argv[2];
rl = readline.createInterface(process.stdin, process.stdout);
rl.setPrompt('> ');
rl.prompt();
var client = new WebSocketClient();
client.on('connectFailed', function(error) {
console.log('Connect Error: ' + error.toString());
process.exit();
});
client.on('connect', function(connection) {
connection.on('error', function(error) {
console.log("Connection Error: " + error.toString());
process.exit();
});
connection.on('close', function(reasonCode, description) {
console.log('chat Connection Closed. Code=' + reasonCode + ' (' + description +')');
});
connection.on('message', function(message) {
if (message.type === 'utf8') {
console.log('\r=> ' + message.utf8Data);
rl.prompt();
}
});
rl.on('line', function(line) {
connection.sendUTF(line);
rl.prompt();
});
rl.on('close', function() {
connection.close();
console.log('Have a great day!');
process.exit(0);
});
rl.prompt();
});
client.connect("ws://" + host +"/chat", "chat");
Step 4: Building and Running your server
To build the server, go in to your server directory and run the command:
swift build
To run the server, in the same directory, run:
.build/debug/ChatServer
The server will now be up and running. The informational log message below will be displayed:
[INFO] [HTTPServer.swift:124 listen(on:)] Listening on port 8080
Step 5: Setting up and Running the client
To setup the client, open a new terminal window, go in to your client directory and run the command:
npm install
That will install the WebSocket package.
To run the client, go into your client directory and run the following command (Note: You will need to open multiple terminal windows and run the client multiple times to see the example action):
node chat.js localhost:8080
You can then enter a message on one client and see it appear on another client and vice versa.

Winter time - with or without snow - presents a wonderful time to explore the gardens and see our ever expanding conifer collections. We have conifers in many locations in every garden within Red Butte. There are many new and unique varieties added each year and the best way to find out about them is to visit often and explore every garden.

multiarm
provides functions to assist with the design of single- and multi-stage multi-arm clinical trials. In either case the available functions allow for sample size determination, trial simulation, analytical operating characteristic calculation, and the production of several informative plots.
Note that an R Shiny graphical user interface is also available for designing single-stage trials; it can be accessed within R using multiarm::gui()
, or online at https://mjgrayling.shinyapps.io/multiarm. Additional information on this app can be found in Grayling and Wason (2020).
You can install the latest development version of multiarm
from Github with:
devtools::install_github("mjg211/multiarm")
An introductory example of how to make use of some of the package’s core functionality can be found below. More detailed support, for single-stage designs, is available in the package vignette, which can be accessed with vignette("single_stage", package = "multiarm")
. See also Grayling and Wason (2020). For further help, please email<EMAIL_ADDRESS>In total, 46 functions are currently available. Their naming conventions are such that several character strings are joined together, separated by underscores. The first string indicates the purpose of the function (i.e., what type of calculation it performs):
build_###_###()
: Build multi-arm clinical trial design objects, like those returned by the des_###_###()
functions. For use when a specific design is of interest.des_###_###()
: Determine the sample size required by a particular type of multi-arm clinical trial design.gui()
: Provides a graphical user interface to design determination.opchar_###_###()
: Determine the operating characteristics (power, family-wise error-rates, etc.) of a supplied multi-arm clinical trial design, via multivariate normal integration.plot.multiarm_des_###_###()
: Produce informative plots (power, false discovery rate curves, etc.) relating to a supplied multi-arm clinical trial design.sim_###_###()
: Empirically estimate the operating characteristics (power, family-wise error-rates, etc.) of a supplied multi-arm clinical trial design, via simulation.The second indicates the design:
###_dtl_###()
: Relate to multi-stage drop-the-losers designs. See, e.g., Wason et al (2017).###_gs_###()
: Relate to group-sequential multi-arm multi-stage designs. See, e.g., Magirr et al (2012).###_ss_###()
: Relate to single-stage designs. See, e.g., Grayling and Wason (2020).The third indicates what type of outcome the function is for:
###_###_bern()
: Assume a Bernoulli distributed primary outcome.###_###_norm()
: Assume a normally distributed primary outcome.###_###_pois()
: Assume a Poisson distributed primary outcome.Typically, a des_###_###()
function would be used first to identify a design for the trial parameters of interest. For example, consider designing a single-stage trial for:
K
).alpha
and correction
).beta
, delta1
, and power
).sigma
).ratio
).To compute the design, we would run:
des <- des_ss_norm(K = 3,
alpha = 0.05,
beta = 0.2,
delta1 = 1,
sigma = rep(1, 4),
ratio = rep(1, 3),
correction = "dunnett",
power = "marginal")
Then, the total required sample size is:
des$N
#> [1] 67.42534
In addition, the operating characteristics under the global null, global alternative, and each of the least favourable configurations, can be accessed with:
des$opchar

To send structured types across the wire, derive from ActionWebService::Struct, and use member to declare structure members.
ActionWebService::Struct should be used in method signatures when you want to accept or return structured types that have no Active Record model class representations, or you don’t want to expose your entire Active Record model to remote callers.
Example
class Person < ActionWebService::Struct member :id, :int member :firstnames, [:string] member :lastname, :string member :email, :string end person = Person.new(:id => 5, :firstname => 'john', :lastname => 'doe')
Active Record model classes are already implicitly supported in method signatures.
Creates a structure member with the specified name and type. Generates accessor methods for reading and writing the member value.
[ show source ]
# File vendor/rails/actionwebservice/lib/action_web_service/struct.rb, line 49 49: def member(name, type) 50: name = name.to_sym 51: type = ActionWebService::SignatureTypes.canonical_signature_entry({ name => type }, 0) 52: write_inheritable_hash("struct_members", name => type) 53: class_eval "def \#{name}; @\#{name}; end\ndef \#{name}=(value); @\#{name} = value; end\n" 54: end
If a Hash is given as argument to an ActionWebService::Struct constructor, it can contain initial values for the structure member.
[ show source ]
# File vendor/rails/actionwebservice/lib/action_web_service/struct.rb, line 28 28: def initialize(values={}) 29: if values.is_a?(Hash) 30: values.map{|k,v| __send__('%s=' % k.to_s, v)} 31: end 32: end
The member with the given name
[ show source ]
# File vendor/rails/actionwebservice/lib/action_web_service/struct.rb, line 35 35: def [](name) 36: send(name.to_s) 37: end
Iterates through each member
[ show source ]
# File vendor/rails/actionwebservice/lib/action_web_service/struct.rb, line 40 40: def each_pair(&block) 41: self.class.members.each do |name, type| 42: yield name, self.__send__(name) 43: end 44: end


James Franklin Has Massive Praise For Ohio State
by Alek ArendCollege football’s Week 13 features some massive contests in regards to playoff implications. The ninth- ranked Penn State Nittany Lions travel to Columbus to face No. 2 Ohio State on Saturday. If the Nittany Lions are able to pull off an upset, it would shake up the college football world.
No one expects Ohio State to lose this game, let alone any of its remaining games. The Buckeyes are currently 10-0, but the next two weeks will surely be the most difficult portion of their schedule. Yet, there isn’t much doubt surrounding OSU’s playoff chances.
Penn State head coach James Franklin is getting his team prepared for the pivotal contest on Saturday. After watching plenty of film, he’s confident this Ohio State roster is the best he’ll face all season – and perhaps his entire career.
“Probably the most talented roster we’ve watched on tape definitely this year, and maybe since we’ve been here.”
That’s some massive praise for Ohio State. Franklin is in for a huge challenge on Saturday, especially considering the Nittany Lions are away from home.
The Ohio State team Penn State is set to play will feature Chase Young, who’s back from a two-game suspension, just in time for the Nittany Lions.
Franklin made sure to note that…
Penn State’s lone loss this season came on the road two weeks ago. The Minnesota crowd was too much to overcome and provided a boost for the Golden Gophers in the upset win over PSU.
Can the Nittany Lions overcome Ohio State on Saturday? Penn State-Ohio State kicks off at noon ET on FOX this Saturday.
