Abstract:
Introducing Temporal Databases in SQL Server 2016 More and more organizations are storing archives of data to help them make important business decisions. Traditionally, organizations had to rely on expensive, and tedious methods to go back in time and make sense of growth, negative growth, profit, loss, etc. Microsoft SQL Server 2016 introduces a new feature called Temporal Databases which essentially solves all the problems mentioned above. This presentation aims to go deep into Temporal Databases (requirements, use cases, technical know-hows) and present some demo’s in order to gain specific understanding on this new feature which is being called “Time Travel”.
Speaker(s): Amit Arora,
Abstract:
Profiler has been with us for a long time and it's pretty much the goto tool for a lot of performance related issues but there's been a new tool around for a few years now - actually since SQL SERVER 2008 - but there doesn't seem to have been a big uptake of it. Well, after this session hopefully that will all change for you. Profiler is now deprecated and all new work is going into extended events. This means that new monitoring events are constantly being added. These give deeper insights into performance problems withing SQL SERVER and also aid the developer / DBA in understanding the inner working of the SQL SERVER database engine. An understanding of profiler would be advantageous but is definitely not required to get some good insights from this session.
Speaker(s): Martin Catherall,
Abstract:
TempDB is an integral part of SQL Server, and is often overlooked when trying to get the most out of your system. Researching the many suggested methods of tuning TempDB is a long, arduous and at times confusing process. In this session we will go over what TempDB is used for, why it is a special and important type of database and how to tune it to enhance the performance of your overall system. We will start with determining the best configuration of TempDB database files to use, the impact disk configuration has, which trace flags are important and what changes SQL Server 2016 will bring us. We will look at what is stored in TempDB and how both developers and DBA can optimize how TempDB is configured and used. We will then use these best practices to optimize our instance and performance tune our queries to make the system faster.
Speaker(s): Hamish Watson,
Abstract:
SQL Server 2014 has come with many performance boosting features. In-Memory OLTP being one of the favourites, there are two more less talked about heroes - Delayed Durability and Buffer Pool Extensions. With the increase of usage of SSDs in production environment it has become essential to use them to the full potential. In this session Manohar will explore Delayed Durability and how it is achieved. He will also cover a case study with delayed durability and SSDs. SSDs can be fully utilized by enabling Buffer Pool Extensions. He will cover the usage and caveats of both these features which boosts the transaction throughput.
Speaker(s): Manohar Punna,
Abstract:
Machine Learning is a subfield of computer science concerned with systems that learn from data. So this isn’t about systems that follow explicitly programmed instructions, but rather about systems that find patterns and trends within datasets, and use them to deliver insight and predictions. In this session, you will learn how an Azure Machine Learning solution comes to life: From the creation of a workspace, to the preparation of data, to experimentation with Machine Learning algorithms, and then finally to the integration and embedding of predictive insights into applications. This session has been specifically designed to describe Machine Learning fundamentals, and to help enable and inspire existing data professionals taking their first steps to leverage cloud-based predictive models delivered with Azure Machine Learning. It is guaranteed to thrill you with potential, and excite you with the relative ease by which it can be accomplished.
Speaker(s): Peter Myers,
Abstract:
Performing analytics on operational data has all along being a huge challenge for applications, due to its impact on regular operations and day to day transactions. SQL Server 2016 has extended its analytic capablities by its enahancements on "In memory tables" and Columnstore indexes."In memory tables" combined with columnstore indexes is a boon for performing analytics on operational data with no impact to regular workload, with no delayed data, no complex ETL tasks and without a need to maintain seperate data warehouse. The presentation would cover how "In Memory" Columnstore indexes help to perform real time operational analytics and would involve interesting demos show casing the gains using SQL Server 2016 "In Memory" and Column Store Index enhancements. Presentation would also demonstrate and compare the performances of "In Memory" columnstore indexes and disk based columnstore indexes.
Speaker(s): Nagaraj Venkatesan,
Abstract:
Testing software is hard work. Testing BI solutions is even harder;there's lots of moving parts, the tools are thin and it takes a lot of time and effort. Software development uses unit testing and while this can be applied to the different parts of a BI solution, most people are more interested in the numbers the solution produces and proving that they are right. So can you validate the numbers in your BI solution? And can you do it quickly and easily? In this session we will cover an approach for automating the validation of your BI solution covering multiple scenarios with a hand full of demos. We will be using nUnit as a framework and some free codeplex tools, so we can run a suite of tests every time we load data into our BI platform. This is not continuous integration, and it is not unit testing in the true sense either. It is, instead, "continuous validation", and it can provide you with an awful lot of assurance for not very much extra effort.
Speaker(s): Dan de Sousa,
Abstract:
Automated and repeatable test cases are required for agile software development. In this session we will look at some of the tools and techniques for automated testing with SQL Server. Demonstrations during the session will create tests using the Visual Studio toolset and discuss how they can be used for Test Driven Development (TDD), unit testing, integration testing and acceptance testing. The presentation will cover testing SQL Server Databases, SQL Server Analysis Services and SQL Server Integration Services. Following the session attendees will be able to incorporate these tools and practices into their projects.
Speaker(s): Stefan Riedel,
Abstract:
Tuning individual queries is incredibly resource intensive. Everyone wants a "Go Faster" button that will improve performance across the entire SQL instance. While there is no sp_gofaster command to run, there are a bunch of magic knobs and switches that can quite often achieve the desired results. In this session we'll look at some of the things you can do to get the best performance out of your SQL Server workload. You'll leave with a shopping list of things to check and options to try in your environments to get the performance you are after.
Speaker(s): Rob Douglas,
Abstract:
In this session you will get a full walkthrough of Power BI: What is it? How is it done? What's in it for me? By the end of this session you will have a full understanding of the Power BI offering and the tools used to discover data, design dashboards and visualizations , visualize them on all devices , how to optimize your data model for Power BI, and natural language query. You'll learn about sharing and collaborating, and working with multiple datasources to build live interactive dashboards and reports.
Speaker(s): Dandy Weyn,
Abstract:
Being able to monitor, diagnose and recover from Database Corruption is a critical skill for any SQL Server DBA. In this session we will walk through the techniques required to detect and repair various forms of Corruption Using a number of example corrupted database we will explore how to determine and fix corruption while avoiding some of the common mistakes. Warning: Hex Editors and DBCC Page dumps will be involved!
Speaker(s): Patrick Flynn,
Abstract:
R is the most popular programming language for advanced analytics today. With Microsoft's purchase of Revolution R, we are seeing native integration of R capabilities in the SQL Server 2016 database engine (R Services). We are also seeing R support in most of the Azure cloud products. In this session I will provide an introduction to the R language as well as discuss how you go about using this inside SQL Server and other Microsoft provided tools.
Speaker(s): Craig Bryden,
Abstract:
Fixing performance problems and detecting query regressions has never been easy in SQL Server as the database engine fundamentally does not capture the relevant information. With the release of SQL Server 2016, Microsoft has introduced a feature called Query Store that will help you capture vital query metrics that will help performance troubleshooting and regression detection. In this session we will examine Query Store, examine it's architecture, configuration and how it can be used to solve real-world performance problems.
Speaker(s): Victor Isakov,
Abstract:

XSUBPP(1) Perl Programmers Reference Guide XSUBPP(1) NAME xsubpp - compiler to convert Perl XS code into C code SYNOPSIS xsubpp [-v] [-except] [-s pattern] [-prototypes] [-noversioncheck] [-nolinenumbers] [-nooptimize] [-typemap typemap] [-output filename]... file.xs DESCRIPTION This compiler is typically run by the makefiles created by ExtUtils::MakeMaker. xsubpp will compile XS code into C code by embedding the constructs necessary to let C functions manipulate Perl values and creates the glue necessary to let Perl access those functions. The compiler uses typemaps to determine how to map C function parameters and variables to Perl values. The compiler will search for typemap files called typemap. It will use the following search path to find default typemaps, with the rightmost typemap taking precedence. ../../../typemap:../../typemap:../typemap:typemap It will also use a default typemap installed as "ExtUtils::typemap". OPTIONS Note that the "XSOPT" MakeMaker option may be used to add these options to any makefiles generated by MakeMaker. -hiertype Retains '::' in type names so that C++ hierarchical types can be mapped. -except Adds exception handling stubs to the C code. -typemap typemap Indicates that a user-supplied typemap should take precedence over the default typemaps. This option may be used multiple times, with the last typemap having the highest precedence. -output filename Specifies the name of the output file to generate. If no file is specified, output will be written to standard output. -v Prints the xsubpp version number to standard output, then exits. -prototypes By default xsubpp will not automatically generate prototype code for all xsubs. This flag will enable prototypes. -noversioncheck Disables the run time test that determines if the object file (derived from the ".xs" file) and the ".pm" files have the same version number. -nolinenumbers Prevents the inclusion of `#line' directives in the output. -nooptimize Disables certain optimizations. The only optimization that is currently affected is the use of targets by the output C code (see perlguts). This may significantly slow down the generated code, but this is the way xsubpp of 5.005 and earlier operated. -noinout Disable recognition of "IN", "OUT_LIST" and "INOUT_LIST" declarations. -noargtypes Disable recognition of ANSI-like descriptions of function signature. -C++ Currently doesn't do anything at all. This flag has been a no-op for many versions of perl, at least as far back as perl5.003_07. It's allowed here for backwards compatibility. ENVIRONMENT No environment variables are used.

MoodMelody is an application that allows for the discovery of new music and artists depending on how you, the listener, are feeling. By selecting a genre of music and the mood you are in, this application will present songs that Spotify
has identified will embody your mood. If our presets aren’t capturing your mood, feel free to adjust the preset values, ranging from 0-10!
Popularity – The prevalence of a song based on its total number of plays within the past month.
Energy - The perceptual measure of intensity and activity within a song. High energy tracks are typically fast and loud.
Valence – The measure of how much musical positivity is conveyed in the song. A higher valence track will be more happy and cheerful.
Instrumentalness - A prediction of whether or not a song contains vocals. A higher instrumentalness value represents an absence of vocals within a song.


flow-filter [-hko] [-a src_as_filter] [-A dst_as_filter] [-b big|little] [-C comment] [-D dstaddr_filter_name] [-d debug_level] [-f acl_fname] [-i input_filter] [-I output_filter] [-p srcport_filter] [-P dstport_filter] [-r ipprot_filter] [-S srcaddr_filter_name] [-t tos_filter] [-T tcp_flags_filter] [-x nexthop_filter_name] [-z z_level]
The flow-filter utility will filter flows based on user selectable criteria. The IP address filters are defined in flow.acl or by the filename specified by -f.
Other filters such as input interface and ports are defined on the command line. These filters accept range and negation operators, ie -i1-15 for input interfaces 1 through 15 or -i1,15 for input interfaces 1 and 15, or !1,15 for not input interfaces 1 and 15.
The syntax is kludgy and needs reworked but works for most applications.
Source AS filter, ie -a159 to permit Autonomous System 159.
Destination AS filter, ie -A159,3112 to permit Autonomous Systems 159 and 3112.
Byte order of output.
Add a comment.
Enable debugging.
Destination IP address filter. This is the name or number of a standard access list defined in flow.acl or the file specified by -f.
Access list filename. Defaults to flow.acl.
Display help.
Input interface filter, ie -i0 to permit traffic from interface 0.
Keep time from input.
Output interface filter, ie -I0 to permit traffic to interface 0.
Logical OR instead of AND filters.
Source port filter, ie -p80 to only permit source port 80.
Destination port filter, ie -P80,8080 to permit destination ports 80 and 8080.
IP Protocol filter, ie -r6 to only permit TCP traffic.
Source IP address filter. This is the name or number of a standard access list defined in flow.acl or the file specified by -f.
ToS bits filter. An optional mask is available which is applied to the tos field before comparing to the filter list. For example to match a tos bit pattern of 101xxxxx use 0xA0/0xE0.
TCP bits filter. An optional mask is available which is applied to the TCP flags field before comparing to the filter list. For example to match a flows with the SYN bit set use 0x2/0x2.
NextHop IP address filter. This is the name or number of a standard access list defined in flow.acl or the file specified by -f.
Configure compression level to z_level. 0 is disabled (no compression), 9 is highest compression.

KING OF COMEDY A film review by Kevin Cogliano Copyright 1996 Kevin Cogliano
Movies To Watch So You Won't Be So Stupid #1
Hi, kids. This will (hopefully) be the first in a series of essays - NOT reviews - of films that I call Hidden Treasures: movies that have slipped through the cracks of the mainstream and are currently languishing on the shelves of your local video retailer.
Keep in mind that these essays are 1) entirely my own opinion and 2) right.
De Niro and Scorscese are the Tag Team Champions of the filmic world. For my money, these two artists are the greatest director/actor collaborators in the history of the medium. But while Travis Bickle and Jake LaMotta have spawned a million undergraduate film essays, little has been said about their creepiest creation - Rupert Pupkin.
 De Niro plays him like the buffoon that he is, wandering the streets of New York in badly-tailored suits and a cheesy moustache. Pupkin physically resembles a cross between Sean Penn circa FALCON AND THE SNOWMAN and Pee-Wee Herman.
Like most obsessed people, Pupkin eschews the whole notion of paying your dues in the show-biz world. He wants to start at the top. He wants a shot at the Tonight Show.
Of course, it's not REALLY the Tonight Show, but it might as well be. The alternate-reality Carson show in this movie is hosted by Jerry Lewis - a television personality so oily that you expect him to slide off the screen leaving only a thin film of grease behind.
Lewis is so shockingly brilliant in this film that it continues to amaze me. God knows I can't stand Jerry Lewis. His success as a popular comedian is one of the Great Mysteries Of The Universe, like the fact that, against all odds, Dennis Hopper isn't dead yet. Lewis is so perfect as the slimeball T.V. star that you are forced to wonder if he's actually acting at all. Perhaps he really IS a slimeball.
Rounding out this unholy trinity is Sandra Bernhard, who De Niro enlists to help with the kidnapping of Lewis. She plays a rich Jewish princess who is madly in love with Lewis, which means she's obviously a few bricks short of an outhouse. The best comic scene in the film is between her and Lewis when she tries to seduce him as he's tied to a chair with duct tape, utterly immobile. "Let's do it right here on the table, Jer," she breathes, and Lewis just stares, transfixed by terror.
Scorscese's direction in KING OF COMEDY is miles away from the baroqueness of CAPE FEAR and CASINO. His camera is a detached and impartial recorder of this New York madness. Scorscese has a reputation for being over-the-top visually, but he proves in KING that he can just as easily be restrained and subdued if the story demands it.
Along with AFTER HOURS, KING is my favourite Scorscese movie. There's not a wasted frame or missed comic moment - but, like all great comedy, there's a real sense of menace and incipent danger beneath the proceedings.

In the past 10 weeks attending MIT xPRO course, we have covered the basics of HTML and CSS, as well as some JavaScript. The following projects are the result of that learning process. CSS has been a passion of mine in the last 9+ months, outside of this course, and I was happy to implement this knowledge as well.
A web page that produces a Pacman on the click of the button.Every PacMan starts at the random position and with the random velocity. The PacMan bounces of the screen edge and opens and closes its mouth while moving.
 The cascading sheets were used to style HTML elements in a way to simulate human eyes that follow the movement of the mouse within the browser. The eyes are synchronized.
 On the click of the button, the app generates a marker which shows all the stops on route one between MIT campus and Harvard. We used MBTA bus data in this exercise.
Go to repo


GitHub Pages is a static site hosting service that takes HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files straight from a repository on GitHub, optionally runs the files through a build process, and publishes a website. You can see examples of GitHub Pages sites in the GitHub Pages examples collection. You can host your site on GitHub's github.io domain or your own custom domain. For more information, see "Using a custom domain with GitHub Pages."


The School of Greatness

I am a big fan of How I Built This. Every week Guy Raz interviews someone who built a business or company from the ground up. “How I Built This weaves a narrative journey about innovators, entrepreneurs and idealists—and the movements they built.”
Website: www.theminimalists.com/Lewis Howes: School of Greatness
Lewis Howes’ book is similar to his podcast, but goes deeper into his personal life story, how he overcame setbacks and climbed to his success. In one of my favorite sections in this book, Lewis shares an inspiring story about his brother’s success, and dives into the nature of working hard to achieve our goals. This book taught me so much.

We all hold onto things in life, and Mark’s approach to happiness is very simple: just care less about the things that don’t matter, and start giving a F* about the things that do.
