Imperfect But Imperative
Affirmative action is on the line again in the lawsuit against Harvard. But this time, access to higher education, even at Northwestern, may actually be in danger.
By Mila Jasper
When Weinberg junior Emily Guo wrote her college essay, she looked to her sister and one of her closest friends to help make the story personal. She wanted to write about her identity, but needed help working through exactly what that entailed.
“It wasn’t easy for me to write,” Guo says. “I didn’t really know how to express it because not only was I trying to understand it for myself, but [also to] put it in a way that other people could empathize with.”
Guo is Chinese American. On paper, she says her upbringing fits common stereotypes often assigned to Asian Americans: she was studious, quiet and played piano. But she was also active and involved in sports. For a long time, she felt that it was hard to embrace her Chinese heritage. Her small, upper-middle class community on Boston’s North Shore was predominantly white, and in some ways, she felt as though she was “passing for white.”
“I was like [Asian American] is a category that has been assigned to me, but this is all of the complexity that I’ve had to deal with in it,” Guo says, “And also all of the ways that it just doesn’t fit with what I am.”
She wanted her personal statement to write the narrative of who she was before college admissions officials could write one for her.
This problem isn’t exclusive to Guo; all college applicants have to figure out how to use their essays to make themselves more than a list of test scores and extracurriculars. But according to Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA), a group of rejected applicants suing Harvard University, Asian American students carry an extra burden to prove themselves in the admissions process.
SFFA is accusing Harvard of engaging in racially biased admissions practices by creating caps on the number of Asian American students admitted. The group claims that Asian Americans were consistently scored lower on the “personal ratings” category — where applicants are rated on factors such as “kindness,” “courage” and “likability”— of the application, despite strong results on test scores and in extracurricular activities.
The argument in this case isn’t new. The same man who organized SFFA, Edward Blum, was the force behind a similar lawsuit that made it to the Supreme Court in 2013 and 2016, where affirmative action was upheld. The argument has played out on Northwestern’s campus before, too.
How Northwestern fits in
In May of 1991, the Northwestern Review, a conservative and now defunct student-run weekly, published a story called “Separate and Unequal: An Investigation of NU Admissions reveals something less than equal opportunity.” Replete with a slew of non-committal quotes from then-Associate Provost for University Enrollment Rebecca Dixon and an “unavailable for comment” from then-University president Arnold Weber, the Review’s article exposed a potential issue with the way race in admissions is discussed. Their actual assertions went much further, claiming that the University was giving an “unfair advantage” to Black applicants.
The story was based on admissions data provided by anonymous administration officials, and said that the favoring of Blacks in admissions was hurting white students and minorities, specifically Asian American and Hispanic applicants. “This fact may be an ominous one for Asians,” the article reads. “As more Black students are recruited, more qualified Asians are likely to be rejected.”
And, in regards to low admission rates for Hispanic applicants, “some minorities apparently add more value than others.”
The Harvard case is more than just similar to the argument the Review made in 1991 – it has the potential to fundamentally alter college admissions across the country. It already has the backing of the Department of Justice, which in July submitted a statement of interest supporting SFFA, and according to The <i>New York Times<i/>, has reallocated resources from its civil rights division to investigations into university admissions practices.
The DOJ says that because Harvard receives funding from the federal government, it is subject to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance. Northwestern, like Harvard, also relies on federal funding and is subject to Title VI.
“What the plaintiffs are hoping for in this case is that the court will overrule [Regents of the University of California v. Bakke’s] holding that you can have affirmative action in favor of African Americans,” Northwestern Professor of Law and Political Science Andrew Koppelman says. “The plaintiffs are hoping that the Supreme Court today, which has completely different membership than at the time of Bakke, will reinterpret the statute to say that universities cannot take race into account at all.”
This would challenge Northwestern’s “holistic admissions” process, which former University spokesperson Al Cubbage told The Daily Northwestern “looks at a number of different factors, including race.”
Koppelman says that should the Court move to overturn affirmative action, he expects universities to make their opinions heard so that they can continue to use race in admissions.
Over the summer, 16 universities did just that by filing an amicus brief in defense of Harvard’s admissions practices. Northwestern and the University of Chicago were the only U.S. News top-ten schools not on the list. That said, Northwestern has emphasized its commitment to holistic admissions that include taking race into account.
“Many other universities could have participated in the amicus brief,” University Spokesperson Bob Rowley wrote in an email to NBN. “Nothing should be read into the fact that Northwestern is not one of the amici, one way or the other.”
Tyler Washington, the VP of Accessibility and Inclusion for ASG, also expressed “entire faith” in University President Morton Schapiro and VP for Student Affairs Patricia Telles-Irvin to maintain their diversity practices, citing their “strong voices.”
“Northwestern is kind of in a tough place in that they are taking a lot of affirmative action steps,” Washington says, emphasizing the University’s 20 percent Pell Grant-eligible goal as evidence of its commitment to diversity. “I think they want to make sure Asian American applicants feel like they’ll be given a fair shake, so that’s probably the calculus that played into not making comments either way.”
Beyond the test scores
<i>The Review<i/>’s investigation began with a quote from Northwestern's admissions policy: “It is the policy of Northwestern University not to discriminate against any individual on the basis of race ... in matters of admissions.”
In the eyes of the <i>Review<i/>, the University was violating its own policy by admitting African Americans at a rate of 73 percent, compared to the 49 percent overall rate, even though the mean SAT score for African Americans was 1070 compared to the overall mean of 1240. These numbers were from 1984, the first year for which the Review had admissions data, but they followed similar patterns for each of the years they had statistics, 1984-87 and 1990.
Dixon said that the numbers cited in the Review’s article “didn’t sound right,” but later told the Chicago Tribune that the “thrust is not too far off.’’
“There is much more to a person than just a test,” Dixon told the Review. “Why do you keep going back to the scores?”
This question is the crux of the affirmative action debate.
“Race plays a pretty critical role in admissions if you are trying to build a diverse and complete and holistic class,” Washington says. “Some of those factors in having a holistic class aren’t captured in SAT scores and GPAs. That much is obvious to anyone who has just talked to another person before.”
In both the 1991 case at Northwestern and the current Harvard case, the argument has been that more qualified students are being locked out of elite schools to make room for Black students.
This line of thought pits minority groups against each other, yet regardless of which group is better off, all minority groups have been subject to the white majority, according to History Professor Ji-Yeon Yuh.
For example, Guo felt she had to defend herself for looking like an “overachiever” who only cared about school. According to Yuh, the very definition of “overachieving” in this context is derived from Asian Americans’ status being compared to white Americans. “If you feel like you’re doing something and you’re doing something well, [it’s] because you’re Asian and not just because you did the thing well,” Guo says of this stereotype.
Yuh agrees, citing the underlying meaning behind the label overachiever.
“[Overachieving] means that you’re not supposed to achieve that much,” Yuh says. “You’re ‘uppity.’ White people or white men were supposed to be achieving this, but instead you are, so you are ‘overachieving.’”
Pull quote: "Asian Americans and African Americans are not competing with each other for spots. They’re competing with white applicants for spots."
In the Harvard case, SFFA asserts that Asian Americans are subject to quotas to make room for other minority groups and white people. But Yuh says the position of all others has been crafted to prop up the white majority.
“The fundamental thing about college admissions is that Asian Americans and African Americans are not competing with each other for spots,” she says. “They’re competing with white applicants for spots, and nothing shows that more clearly than the case against Harvard.”
Yuh traces this conflict between minorities back to the civil rights movement in the 1960s, when she says the notion of the “model minority myth” first emerged. This myth is the stereotype still common in society today: that Asian Americans are high achieving and law- abiding citizens because of their Asian culture.
“Americans were saying through the model minority myth ‘look at these Asians, they are succeeding, that proves there’s no racism, that proves that these Black people over here complaining about racism are complaining about nothing,’” Yuh says. “This is the beginnings of the ways in which the broader American society is deliberately pitting Asian Americans against African Americans.”
According to Yuh, the character judgments admissions officers make in the “personal ratings” category could be impacted by this myth.
“There are stereotypes ... about Asian Americans being nerdy and therefore lacking for the elimination of affirmative action is shortsighted, social skills, about Asian Americans being greedy, because they’re overachievers and therefore lacking empathy and kindness, and about Asian Americans being robotic because all they do supposedly is ‘study study study,’” Yuh says. “So the ways in which Harvard evaluates its applicants seems to replicate some of these stereotypes.”
SFFA has to prove that Asian Americans have actually been hurt in Harvard’s admissions processes, though.
“If, in fact, Asian Americans can’t show at trial that they’ve been hurt,” Koppelman says, “Then they haven’t got any basis for appealing because the trial court looks to the reports as a matter of fact.”
Class & building an application
Like many Northwestern students, when Weinberg junior Seri Lee was in second grade, they was learning addition and subtraction. And they was frustrated.
“My parents couldn’t help me with that because the way they learned how to add and subtract was different from the way the American school system teaches you,” Lee says.
Lee’s parents are immigrants.  As a first-generation, low-income student applying to college, Lee faced extra challenges. “I had to navigate by myself,” Lee says. “FAFSA and CSS, they ask you to basically pull up your parents tax information as if an 18- or 19-year- old is supposed to know how to navigate taxes and that kind of information.”
As Lee’s story shows, disadvantaged students often carry more responsibilities with less access to resources and activities that can help them look attractive on applications.
Pull quote: "It [affirmative action] benefits the most privileged Black applicants. That this becomes the most prominent battleground for racial equality is racial justice on the cheap."
Test scores are heavily influenced by a students’ ability to pay for test prep, as well as by the quality of the education they received more broadly. Extracurricular activities can give a boost to applicants whose grades or SAT scores aren’t up to snuff, but those also require access, time and money.
“One of the characteristics of affirmative actions is that it benefits the most privileged Black applicants,” Koppelman says. “That this becomes the most prominent battleground for racial equality is racial justice on the cheap.”
Instead, Koppelman argues, policies like the 20 percent Pell Grant eligible goal are the path forward to ensuring diversity because they make college more accessible for lower income students.
“Northwestern is such a rich school that we can admit on a needs-blind basis,” Koppelman says. “Ultimately, what you want to do is have such a range of education opportunities that it doesn’t matter if you got into Harvard or Northwestern.”
Pell Grants are not enough to fully pay for Northwestern’s tuition, but the University’s soaring endowment can make up the difference for needy students.
This is not to say race shouldn’t be a factor in admissions, though, according to Lee.
“A reality with no affirmative action is worse than one with affirmative action,” Lee says. “I think that in this case there needs to be analysis of both race and class. There are wealthy people of color obviously, and if you’re wealthy you’re just going to become more wealthy, but that’s not saying race isn’t important.”
Even though racism has manifested itself in economic disadvantages to minority groups, such that minority groups often have higher ratios of poverty than whites, the raw numbers show that there are actually more white people living below the poverty line than minorities. So fully switching to class- based, race-blind admissions would not effectively foster diversity.
“It really depends on what kind of diversity universities are going to commit themselves to,” Yuh says.  Or are they going to commit themselves to a kind of diversity that is going to account all manner of things?”
After acceptance
The editorial that accompanied the <i>Review’s<i/> investigation asked, “at what cost and to what real advantage” is the University “admitting more and perhaps less qualified Black students,” pointing to relatively low graduation rates for Black students.
This indictment of Black students for being unable to keep up as a justification for the elimination of affirmative action is shortsighted, according to Lee.
“I think, personally, diversity and inclusion is bullshit,” Lee says, noting that without support, disadvantaged students will struggle once they come to campus.
It has been widely reported across campus publications that mental health services at Northwestern do not adequately meet student need; this means low-income students and students of color like Lee feel like they have nowhere to turn when they experience this isolation.
“You need to change the culture and the practices of the University to actually really give these students from a diverse background equitable opportunities,” Yuh says. “People can’t succeed if they’re thrown into the water and told to swim. They succeed if they’ve already been taught to swim, and they’re familiar with the water, or if somebody can guide them.”
This frustration isn’t new, either. The <i>Review<i/> quoted Karla Spurlock-Evans, Northwestern’s former Director of African-American Student Affairs, expressing the same idea.
There is no doubt that lack of access to support services hurts all students, and particularly disadvantaged students, but how much responsibility universities should take on to make up for social inequality is an open question.
Northwestern can admit more Pell Grant students, but until access to high quality public education is available to all, and not just those who are privileged, the pool of qualified low-socioeconomic class students will naturally be smaller than it should be.
“The 1950s and the 1960s are seen as a time of amazing class mobility for Americans, and one of the big drivers of that is the G.I. Bill [which helped WWII veterans pay for college],” Yuh says. “So we might talk about, ‘Oh well, what can colleges actually do?’ Colleges can expand the middle class.”
While it was universities that educated these veterans, the access to higher education was made possible by the federal government, not the universities themselves.
Although the plaintiffs in the Harvard case argue that categorization is the essence of discrimination, simply eliminating the categories doesn’t alleviate the different levels of privilege to which each group has access.
The article in the Review took criticism from then-President Weber for ignoring 30 years of racial equality and progress on campus. In the 1960s, Northwestern’s campus was whitewashed. Affirmative action helped to change that, Weber told the Tribune. He went on to say that “affirmative action will eventually become self-effectuating” because minority populations would outnumber the white population in America. Twenty-seven years later, we still aren’t there.

relaxo: Relaxed Lasso
Relaxed Lasso is a generalisation of the Lasso shrinkage
technique for linear regression. Both variable selection and
parameter estimation is achieved by regular Lasso, yet both
steps do not necessarily use the same penalty parameter. The
results include all standard Lasso solutions but allow often
for sparser models while having similar or even slightly better
predictive performance if many predictor variables are present.
The package depends on the LARS package.

v 1.6.5
1. 2D graph engine for expressions is improved. Caching technology is implemented to store calculated results. And the expression chart is more sensative to Drag-to-move operations. However, note that plotting expressions is different from plotting data. Expression result at a new value need be calculated anyway. As such if the expression is not simple, user may still experience significant lag.
2. Plot graph for 2-variable and 3-variable implicit functions. Note that only solvable implicit functions can be plotted. Polymonials of degree larger than 3 can be solved but cannot be plotted because the root expressions are very complicated. If plot 2-variable implicit function, at most 4 root expressions can be drawn. For 3-variable implicit function, Calculator may calculate roots for each of the variables and then plot at most 2 roots for every variable. In other words, a single 3-variable implicit function may imply at most 6 to-be-plotted expressions. The whole solving-plotting procedure in this case will take quite long time. Also note that implicit function must be an equation, not assignment, i.e. x**2+y**2=4-z**2 is invalid while x**2+y**2==4-z**2 can be accepted;
3. Change behavior of functions size, zeros and ones. Now if calculate size of a value, not matrix, [] not [0] will return. Also, function zeros and ones return 0 and 1 respectively if input parameter is [];

Contributing¶
Graphene-UI is open source and anyone is free to contribute. PR’s are welcomed and will be reviewed in a timely manner, and long-term contributors will be given access to the repo.
If you would like to get involved, we have a Slack channel where you can ask questions and get help.
Development process¶
- Bugs are always worked before enhancements
- Developers should work each issue according to a numbered branch corresponding to the issue using
git checkout -b 123
Github issues are being used to track bugs and feature requests.
- Project Coordinator (@wmbutler) reads through new issues and requests clarification if needed
- Issues get assigned to Milestones
- Milestones are typically 1 week long ending on Wednesday
- All devs are expected to install Zenhub. Zenhub creates viewable pipelines and allows for issue estimation. Estimates are based on anticipated hours to complete.
Categorization of issues¶
- New issues have not been categorized yet or are tagged as question when seeking clarification.
- Backlog issues have been assigned to a Milestone and are waiting for a dev to estimate and claim.
- In Progress issues are being actively worked on.
- Testing issues are waiting for independent tests. (Methodology fully defined as of yet, so devs test their own work for now)
- Closed issues are complete
Milestones¶
- Project Coordinator announces the number of issues and requests them to be claimed and estimated
- Presents a burndown chart for the week
Sunday¶
- Project Coordinator summarizes progress with burndown chart
- Ensures that all items are claimed and estimated
- Escalates to @valzav for unestimated and/or unclaimed items
Wednesday¶
- Testing is completed
- Release notes completed by @valzav
- Project Coordinator announces release on bitsharestalk and provides link to release notes
Thursday¶
- Incomplete items are moved to new Milestone
- Old Milestone is closed
- New Milestone is activated (rinse lather repeat)
Coding style guideline¶
Our style guideline is based on Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide, with few exceptions:
- Strings are double quoted
- Additional trailing comma (in arrays and objects declaration) is optional
- 4 spaces tabs
- Spaces inside curly braces are optional
We strongly encourage to use _eslint_ to make sure the code adhere to our style guidelines.
To install eslint and its dependencies, run:
npm install -g eslint-config-airbnb eslint-plugin-react eslint babel-eslint
Testing¶
Jest currently doesn’t work with node (see https://github.com/facebook/jest/issues/243), so in order to run the tests you need to install iojs. Under Ubuntu instructions can be found here:
Nodesource Ubuntu io.js installation.
In order for jest to correctly follow paths it is necessary to add a local path to your NODE_PATH variable. Under Ubuntu, you can do so by running the following from the web directory:
export NODE_PATH=$NODE_PATH:.
Tests are then run using:
npm test

Do you still root and mod your Android phones?
Source: Android Central
When you think about Android phones, what comes to mind? Maybe it's how customizable the user experience is right out of the box, or perhaps the endless options of devices you have to choose from thanks to the platform's open-source nature.
A few short years ago, one of the big draws to Android was the rooting/modding community. Between custom ROMs and things like the Xposed Framework, there were a lot of things you could do by taking some time to tinker with your phone.
That big appeal to rooting and modding seems to have died down a bit lately, and it's gotten some of our AC forum members talking about it. Here's what they have to say.
milleniumdroid 11-03-2019 02:36 AM For those of you new to the forums or just don’t know me, I do not like limits imposed by device manufacturers and even the companies behind the software that runs on said devices. I want to do with my device what I want, not what the manufacturer thinks I should do. I’ve been an Android user since I was 12 years old and I noticed that while devices are getting more powerful and letting me do... Reply
Rukbat 11-03-2019 02:06 PM That's why I don't buy phones with locked bootloaders. (At least with Magisk, that's pretty much all it takes to root.) I also don't like phones for which there's ni implementation of TWRP (and I'm not going to get into compiling one for myself - not that I can't run a compiler, but it's easier to get a good phone for which TWRP is available). And I won't buy a phone that doesn't come with a... Reply
Almeuit 11-03-2019 04:06 PM For me it isn't a huge issue since I don't do the whole root / ROM thing anymore. I have had no desire to have to modify any of my phones for years now. Reply
Mike Dee 11-03-2019 04:23 PM I don't keep a device long enough to matter and I stopped rooting after OEMs basically eliminated lag in their devices, but I agree. We should be able to install anything we want on our devices. It is a little more difficult than PCs because of carrier compatibility but I'm sure that could be resolved. Reply
What about you? Do you still root and mod your Android phones?


Michael van Gerwen threatens to 'do a Ronnie O'Sullivan' and turn down 9-darter
Michael van Gerwen says he could channel Ronnie O’Sullivan and turn down a 9-darter as there is no prize for hitting the perfect leg in the PDC.
The world number one hit the first televised 9-darter of the year on Saturday at the Players Championship Finals, on his way to a second round win over Adrian Lewis.
However, he claimed to be not fussed about the feat, and even suggested he could purposefully turn down a 9-darter in future if there is no prize money.
Five-time world snooker champion O’Sullivan famously turned down the chance for a 147 break at the 2016 Welsh Open because the £10,000 prize money for a maximum was ‘too cheap’ and MVG certainly thinks no prize at all is scandalous.

Advertisement Advertisement
When asked if that would disappoint the crowd, the Dutchman added: ‘I don’t care, there should be a little prize, simple.’
It seems very unlikely that Mighty Mike would ever do this because turning down a shot at a double leaves a leg alive, whereas if a snooker player turns down a 147, the frame will have already been wrapped up.
There is also an argument to say that it would be falling foul of not playing to the best of your abilities, which is punishable by the Darts Regulation Authority.
There has previously been a prize for nailing a 9-darter, but it was removed last year in a restructuring of the PDC’s prize money.
Snooker’s 147 prize pot has come in for criticism after a change at the start of the season which makes it extremely unlikely any player will win anything for hitting a maximum.
If there are 20 maximum breaks over the season then a £1m prize pot is shared between all those who made the breaks, but seen as the most ever in a season is 13, this is almost out of the question.
Even when the prize was a very decent £10,000, it wasn’t enough for the Rocket.
Advertisement Advertisement
‘I knew it was £10,000. I could have done it, but I didn’t think the prize was worthy of a 147. So I’ve tried to let it build up until it’s worthy and then go for it,’ O’Sullivan said.
‘It’s like going into a Mercedes garage and when they say that you can have the car for £3,000, you reply, ‘No way, that’s too cheap. I’m not buying it for that’
‘Certain things have value, and a 147 is a special moment. I want it to feel special all round.
‘But the punters still got value for money today. Now they’ve got something more to look forward to. There’s still room for improvement.
‘You like to entertain your fans. It’s like a film. You want them to come back and watch the next one.
‘There is no point in giving them the best ending they’ve ever had. Leave room for a better ending next time.’

by Emily BrownBanksy’s former agent has shared pictures apparently showing the artist at work, meaning we may have just got one step closer to finding out who the mysterious artist is.

For years, the world has speculated about the person behind the eye-opening, hard-hitting and timely murals that have been popping up across the globe.
With not much other than the name ‘Banksy’ to go off, people have wondered about the artist’s age, gender and nationality; whether they’re an activist, a vegetarian, a fan of the Star Wars films and all other potential traits.

Are they a family man? Is it your grandmother? Is it me?
Only one thing is for sure. It’s not me.
Now, however, Banksy’s former agent, Steve Lazarides, appears to have given the world an insight into the person behind the artwork.
Lazarides worked with Banksy as his agent, photographer, driver and gallerist for 11 years before the pair went their separate ways in 2008. Now, however, Lazarides has decided to share more of his time with the artist in a new book titled Banksy Captured, which details their years of working together in a series of photographs.

The website for the book explains:
These never-before-seen images, shot by Lazarides, document the fascinating and anarchic journey behind the scenes of the mysterious man who has become one of the world’s most renowned artists.
Banksy Captured has not yet been released, but some of the photographer’s pictures have been shared ahead of time, apparently showing the artist at work.
Unfortunately we don’t get a good look at Banksy as he’s pictured from the back, but we can deduce that he is a man with brown hair.

Admittedly, it’s not much, but we have to take what we can get when it comes to the elusive artist.
According to the BBC, the photographer described his time with Banksy as ‘a ride’, saying:
[We] broke every rule in the rule book, along with a fair few laws.
 I only became part of it because Banksy catapulted the movement into the stratosphere.
It was a ride – however, I’m glad I’m out of it and about to enter the next ride.
It’s unclear when Lazarides’ book will be released but it will be interesting to see what else he reveals!

Ironically, the Rock was originally a drinking fountain. After the water pipes broke, vandalism of the Rock gradually increased. With the first painting of the rock in the 1940s, it became a canvas for student art, opinions, advertising, messages, and jokes. Stationed on the courtyard between Northwestern University’s Harris Hall and University Hall, it is now one of the University’s best known landmarks. Tradition holds that if a student or a student group want to paint something on the Rock, he or she must guard it for 24 hours before painting it.
Earlier this quarter, we took a 360 photo with the GoPro Omni 360 camera. On this interactive Virtual Reality photo, you can explore the rock and buildings around it on your browser or on your phone with a Google Cardboard. By clicking on the button on each person, you can learn a piece of the Rock’s history, hear about a love story on the Lakefill, or look at past pictures of the Rock.

Juice WrldLilYatchy |YoungBoy | JuiceWrld | Beyonce | liluzivert | TravisScott | |
Jarad Anthony Higgins (December 2, 1998 – December 8, 2019), known professionally as Juice Wrld (pronounced "juice world"; stylized as Juice WRLD), was an American rapper, singer, and songwriter from Chicago, Illinois. His song "Lucid Dreams" has been played on the music streaming platform Spotify over one billion times and peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100. "Lucid Dreams", along with his earlier hit single "All Girls Are the Same", helped him secure a recording contract with Lil Bibby's Grade A Productions and Interscope Records. He derived his stage name from late rapper Tupac Shakur and his part in the film Juice and that it represents taking over the world.[1] "All Girls Are the Same" and "Lucid Dreams" were two of five singles included on Higgins' debut studio album Goodbye & Good Riddance (2018), which went on to become certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album enjoyed positive critical reception, and contained three other singles: "Lean wit Me", "Wasted", and "Armed and Dangerous", all of which charted on the Billboard Hot 100. After collaborating with Future on the mixtape Wrld on Drugs (2018), Higgins released his second studio album Death Race for Love (2019), which reached number one on the Billboard 200. It contains the singles "Robbery" and "Hear Me Calling". Higgins died eight months later following a drug-related seizure at Chicago's Midway International Airport. His death prompted an outpouring of grief across social media and from the music industry. His first posthumous album, Legends Never Die (2020), debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. The album was the most successful posthumous chart debut in over 20 years and matched a record for the most top-ten song entries on the Hot 100 at one time. The album's fourth of six singles, "Come & Go" with Marshmello, became Higgins' second song to reach number two on the Billboard Hot 100 after "Lucid Dreams". |

Example :
Because concatenating List[Int] with Option[Int] will get you a List[Int], and if the Option[Int] type value is None, nothing will be added to the list :)
val m = Map("A" -> 1, "B" ->3)
var l1 = List.empty[Int]
var l2 = List.empty[Int]
// Don't write such thing :
if (m.contains("A")) l1 ::= m.get("A").get
if (m.contains("Z")) l1 ::= m.get("Z").get
println(l1)
// Instead just write something like :
l2 ++:= m.get("A")
l2 ++:= m.get("Z")
println(l2)

Internet outage forces Iranians to resort to old ways
Tehran: Iranians struggled to adjust to life offline for almost a week and were forced to resort to old ways due to a near-total internet blackout imposed amid violent protests.
The demonstrations flared on November 15, hours after a shock decision announced at midnight to raise the price of petrol by up to 200 percent in the sanctions-hit country.
The timing of the announcement was seen as a bid to forestall chaos, such as caused by motorists stocking up on fuel before the hike took effect.
The internet restrictions, for their part, apparently aimed to temper shows of dissent and anger over the move and stop footage of the unrest from being shared.
Brigadier General Salar Abnoosh, a deputy head of the Basij volunteer militia, said Friday that the internet outage had helped to "disrupt the complicated" plans by Iran's enemies.
On Saturday -- day seven of the internet restrictions and the start of the working week in Iran -- people in Tehran were trying to overcome problems brought on by the outage.
Some said they had been forced to make long journeys to carry out simple transactions that they used to be able to do in a couple of clicks online.
"We have no other choice," said a woman in her 30s who only gave her name as Asgari.
"What I could have done by using internet now I have to do by telephone or some other means," she told AFP.
"I've taken today off from work to come into town to do something which I could've done by using the internet."
Others said they were having difficulty reaching loved ones overseas.
"I wanted to call my children but I couldn't," said Taheri, a man in his 70s. "They were worried and had to go and get a card to call us. This is not right."
Economic impact
For many in Iran, the lack of internet access was more than just a hindrance to social activity.
The country has a thriving online economy, with its own equivalents for apps like Airbnb, Amazon and Uber.
They have come through the outage largely unscathed as people can still access domestic applications on their phones.
However, smaller businesses that rely heavily on social media to stay in touch with their clients suffered during the outage.
Among them were travel agencies whose services were badly disrupted.
"An acute problem has been created for all travel agencies," said Hormatollah Rafiei, head of the Travel Agents Guild Association.
"The sale of foreign tickets and reservations for foreign hotels reached zero and some travel agencies closed due to financial losses," he said, quoted by ILNA news agency.
Connectivity in Iran "began to fluctuate on Friday evening (November 15) before a sequence of cuts that saw levels fall to a nadir of four percent" compared with normal levels, said Netblocks, a site that monitors global internet disruptions.
"Apart from fluctuations on Sunday, access to the outside world flatlined consistently until Thursday when limited connectivity appeared across most regions," it said.
On Saturday, connectivity was back up, the monitor added.
'What can we do?'
Iran's arch-enemy the United States slapped sanctions on its telecommunications minister overnight "for restricting internet access".
The minister, Mohammad-Javad Azari Jahromi, said he was just another Iranian made to suffer the consequences of sanctions that the US reimposed after withdrawing from a 2015 nuclear deal.
"I'm not the only member of club of sanctioned persons," he tweeted.
"Before me, Iran ICT startups, Developers, Cancer patients and EB children were there," he said, referring to epidermolysis bullosa (EB).
Iran says the US sanctions have hindered its access to drugs for EB, a skin condition that afflicts children, causing several deaths.
The government said it would unblock the internet only when it was sure it would not be abused.

"My family lives abroad and I was always in touch with them but now I have no contact with them," she told AFP.
"I need to get a phone card because it's too expensive to call abroad (from a fixed line phone)," she added.
"What can we do? We are trying to stay patient."

Net::SSH::Gateway is a library for programmatically tunneling connections to servers via a single "gateway" host. It is useful for establishing Net::SSH connections to servers behind firewalls, but can also be used to forward ports and establish connections of other types, like HTTP, to servers with restricted access.
In a nutshell:
require 'net/ssh/gateway' gateway = Net::SSH::Gateway.new('host', 'user') gateway.ssh("host.private", "user") do |ssh| puts ssh.exec!("hostname") end gateway.open("host.private", 80) do |port| Net::HTTP.get_print("<IP_ADDRESS>", "/path", port) end gateway.shutdown!
See Net::SSH::Gateway for more documentation.

“@JustDoug77: @HaplessCaptain Travis Wood >>>>>>> Ted Lilly and it's not up for debate” Maybe equal, but all those "greater thans" =madness
— Andy (@HaplessCaptain) October 25, 2014
Since I get to see and perhaps meet Ted this weekend at Cubs Convention, I thought it would be interesting for me to try to justify my choice of TL as one of my favorites. It can be hard to rationalize something that really is fairly irrational, but here are my reasons for liking him anyway--
1. The Ted Lilly Fan Club
The TLFC was a blog that followed Ted's exploits throughout his Cubs tenure and treated him as though he were a demigod. Follow this link, and read the brief article to get the flavor of the TLFC.
2. I enjoy crafty pitching.
The first video here shows (in slow motion) the great fade that Lilly had on his changeup. The second video features Ted's control, his devastating slow curve, his luck, and the voice of Vin Scully.

3. Lilly was a great competitor and teammate.
Some of Ted's actions could perhaps be construed as petulant (e.g. slamming his glove on the mound or the confrontation with Gibbons), but I don't think anyone could say that he didn't care. He wanted to win, and he wanted his teammates to win. He was ejected a couple of times for shouting at the umpire from the dugout because he didn't care for his fellow pitchers getting squeezed.

4. This--

I think I'm feeling good about my choice. I didn't even get into stats, and it is true that there aren't any really gaudy numbers there. Still, he is a two-time All-Star, and he went 47-34 in his tenure with the cubs, including 15-win and 17-win seasons in 2007 and 2008. TMFL!

It's nice to see the slow organic rise in price, but I do wonder why the larger buyers (Whalebro) have not entered into the fray; especially since the current price is lower than most of the previous buys the whale(s) made were done at a higher price. Other than that mini whale on the bid early on during this little run, we haven't really seen those huge bids we've seen in the past. Perhaps they're worried about bitcoin preventing Alt season from happening so they are sitting this one out for now.(edited)

Dear Shipmates of @PirateChain #ARRR #ARRRmada extra rations of Rum for everyone.  We have been approached by a CMC Top 10 Exchange who will list us with two Trading Pairs at no charge. (Hint: It is neither HitBTC nor Binance nor Kraken..) https://t.co/N...
Did you see this? Top 10 exchange wants to list arrr for free apparently
Markus07-Jul-19 03:36 PM
My bet is Huobi or Coinbene
if Coinbene well then nothing to be happy for fake volume

bah. I am still super grumpy that I didn't bail out of WAVES when it was 200k Sat way back in July 2017 .. but I shouldn't complain really, so I don't ...
Altseason coming or just BTC gearing up for next booster phase? (go Sasha, GoGoGo! )(edited)

@Bittersweet wait, you sayin KMD got soul?!
Markus07-Jul-19 04:50 PM
I dont think its so sure that BTC will go up from here....remember that btc usually does the opposite what ppl expect it to and 90% of ppl doing TA looking at the Inverse H&S pattern to playout
Same goes for the previous H&S pattern a month ago or so when ppl were saying btc goes to 6-7k thats why it didnt cause ppl were expecting that to happen so it didnt(edited)
once we flip decred all will be right in the cryptoverse

I hate crypto sometimes. What even is Egretia anyway lol(edited)
I think I can honestly say I’ve never seen one person talk about it ever in my history of being involved in crypto. And yet it’s 38 on CMC?  That’s what I’m saying lol. That’s why I hate crypto sometimes

it's a bitfinex scam coin. the smart contract is written to be able to create/erase coins at will
by the issuer
Alexfrog07-Jul-19 05:33 PM
Seriously, somoene should just make "top of coinmarketcap coin", with a supply of 1 Trillion coins that they control, and sell 1 coin to someone for 1 dollar, and then claim the 1 trillion marketcap. Thats all there is behind some of these shitcoins
Zaddex is looking like a very cool exchange, shame volume is so low(edited)

Alexfrog08-Jul-19 06:02 AM

actionslacks08-Jul-19 06:18 AM
it's gotta pump before the rebrand right?. fairly convinced a large percent of volume out there is fake. just bots building walls and flashing numbers.
