The goal of this analysis is to identify differentially expressed genes (DEG) between responders and non-responders in the HVP01 study using the bulk RNA-seq data.
From whole blood transcriptome profiling, we have bulk RNA-seq data for 15 subjects over 5 time points (visit day 0,1,3,7,14). The studied Hepatitis B Vaccine (drug: ENGERIX®-B) consists of three doses. After each dose, response to the vaccination is determined by the anti-HBs antibody level above 10 mIU/mL.
In this report, we focus on the response after dose 2 (with 13 responders and two non-responders). At a single time point, we perform a naive t-test. To include multiple time points, we also perform the parametric PBtest, which takes into account the repeated measurement data structure.
This report is organized in the following sections.
Load useful packages.
library(genefilter)
library(PBtest)
In the following analyses, significance level is set at 5%. Benjamini-Hochberg multiple testing correction will be applied.
alpha <- 0.05
Earlier, we read in “HVP_sampleTable_response_May18.csv” to ctab
, which contains the dose response and other clinical information for each sample in the expression matrix.

In vaccine studies, it is common to look at the Day 7 post-vacctine data given the time lag between vaccination and immune activation. At the single time point, we can simply use the t-test to compare between the responders and non-responders.
## subset Day 7 column data
ctab.D7 <- ctab %>% filter(Visit_day==7)
## t-test
out.t.D7 <- rowttests(dat.filt10.symbol[,ctab.D7$Sample_name], as.factor(ctab.D7$Responder_dose2))
padj.t.D7 <- p.adjust(out.t.D7$p.value, method="BH")

There is only 1 DEG identified using sinlge time point at Day 7. The following plot shows that this gene is under-regulated in the responders.

Immune response is a dynamic procedure. Using just one time point limits the scope of our analysis. With PBtest, a highly efficient hypothesis testing method for regression-type tests with correlated observations and heterogeneous variance structure, we are able to include all time points available in the study. It reveals more DEGs between the responders and non-responders.

Initial release of module based on couchbase-lite-ios and couchbase-lite-android version 1.0.0.
2014-01-20
The couchbase-lite-ios project is undergoing another set of API changes, which I'm tracking in the cblite_api_changes branch. This is a summary of the changes to date:
enableLogging(category)
STALE_QUERY_NEVER
-> QUERY_UPDATE_INDEX_BEFORE
STALE_QUERY_OK

propertydirectory
propertydatabaseNamed(name)
now returns a database with the given name or creates it if it doesn't
exist. The new existingDatabaseNamed(name)
will return an existing
database or null if the database with the provided name does not exist.
These are the new semantics of the couchbase-lite-ios library.maxRevTreeDepth
property.existingDocumentWithID(id)
method to return an existing document or
null if the document with the specified ID does not exist. The documentWithID(id)
method will continue to return a new document if the document ID passed to it
does not exist.untitledDocument()

SCENE. Inverness. Macbeth's castle.
(Enter LADY MACBETH, reading a letter)
LADY MACBETH
'They met me in the day of success: and I have
learned by the perfectest report, they have more in
them than mortal knowledge. When I burned in desire
to question them further, they made themselves air,
into which they vanished. Whiles I stood rapt in
the wonder of it, came missives from the king, who
all-hailed me 'Thane of Cawdor;' by which title,
before, these weird sisters saluted me, and referred
me to the coming on of time, with 'Hail, king that
shalt be!' This have I thought good to deliver
thee, my dearest partner of greatness, that thou
mightst not lose the dues of rejoicing, by being
ignorant of what greatness is promised thee. Lay it
to thy heart, and farewell.'
Glamis thou art, and Cawdor; and shalt be
What thou art promised: yet do I fear thy nature;
It is too full o' the milk of human kindness
To catch the nearest way: thou wouldst be great;
Art not without ambition, but without
The illness should attend it: what thou wouldst highly,
That wouldst thou holily; wouldst not play false,
And yet wouldst wrongly win: thou'ldst have, great Glamis,
That which cries 'Thus thou must do, if thou have it;
And that which rather thou dost fear to do
Than wishest should be undone.' Hie thee hither,
That I may pour my spirits in thine ear;
And chastise with the valour of my tongue
All that impedes thee from the golden round,
Which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem
To have thee crown'd withal.
(Enter a Messenger)
What is your tidings?
Messenger
The king comes here to-night.
LADY MACBETH
Thou'rt mad to say it:
Is not thy master with him? who, were't so,
Would have inform'd for preparation.
Messenger
So please you, it is true: our thane is coming:
One of my fellows had the speed of him,
Who, almost dead for breath, had scarcely more
Than would make up his message.
LADY MACBETH
Give him tending;
He brings great news.
(Exit Messenger)
The raven himself is hoarse
That croaks the fatal entrance of Duncan
Under my battlements.   Come, thick night,
And pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,
That my keen knife see not the wound it makes,
Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the dark,
To cry 'Hold, hold!'
(Enter MACBETH)
Great Glamis! worthy Cawdor!
Greater than both, by the all-hail hereafter!
Thy letters have transported me beyond
This ignorant present, and I feel now
The future in the instant.
MACBETH
My dearest love,
Duncan comes here to-night.
LADY MACBETH
And when goes hence?
MACBETH
To-morrow, as he purposes.
LADY MACBETH
O, never
Shall sun that morrow see!
Your face, my thane, is as a book where men
May read strange matters.  He that's coming
Must be provided for: and you shall put
This night's great business into my dispatch;
Which shall to all our nights and days to come
Give solely sovereign sway and masterdom.
MACBETH
We will speak further.
LADY MACBETH
Only look up clear;
To alter favour ever is to fear:
Leave all the rest to me.
(Exeunt)

Welcome to pydango-pip’s documentation!¶
Pydango-pip is a pip-intallable database schema that you can interact with through a CLI. The schema is meant to mimic a movie theater reservation system such as Fandango.
The inspiration came from a YouTube video by Mike Kennedy where he builds an Air Bnb-like CLI for MongoDB with MongoEngine. I’ve taken a lot of his code and refactored it for SQLAlchemy and relational databases. You can find the video here: https://youtu.be/E-1xI85Zog8.
You can also find the non-pip-installable version of Pydango called simply “Pydango” here: https://github.com/Captmoonshot/pydango .
This regular version of Pydango is good to clone and interact with through both the CLI and a database backend to really grokk what goes on behind the scenes. Once you clone it, and set up a configuration file, you can use it for both an SQLite and/or PostgreSQL database backend.
However, pydango-pip will only work with SQLite database backends.
-
pydango.__main__.
get_args
()¶ Function to parse arguments from the command-line using the argparse module
- Returns
arguments
-
pydango.__main__.
main
()¶ Pydango-pip’s main executable function. Gets the database argument from the command-line. Using SQLAlchemy’s ORM pattern, creates an engine and session. The session is then used to create the database schema: tables and relations.
We then automatically load initial data into those tables using insert_<table_name>_data(session=session) functions.
We then divide our users into two distinct groups with the find_user_intent function:
cinephile (people who want to watch movies)
theater_owner (people who own movies theaters and supply the movies to watch)
And execute the CLI flow for the respective user types.
pydango-pip’s ORM Relationships¶
The following classes represent the Python classes that gets mapped to their SQL equivalents using SQLAlchemy ORM’s declarative syntax which allows for things like Many-to-One and Many-to-Many relationships.
-

Trump starts to speak and people start to leave his rally 07 Nov 2019, 18:26 by Jason Weisberger Rats flee sinking ships?


It was a Friday night last week, a little get together with 4 people to have a good time. I'm 17 and have done marijuana since I was 12 numerous times, have done acid 3 times and mushrooms only once. We had done 2 dollar a hit acid, and taken 2-3 hits of that. This night we got very good acid, 5 dollars a hit, 275 ugs per hit. I talked to my friend Z and asked him to get us not only that but 1/2 an ounce of mushrooms for us 4, 1/8 apiece. I had 1/8 of kind bud and we planned on having a crazy weekend. We intended on taking the acid Friday night, then the mushrooms early Saturday morning then going to a party Saturday night, it didn't quite work out that way.
We took 1 hit of the acid and then smoked 4 bowls in Zs new glass piece at 8 oclock. A half hour after the first hit we took the other hit of acid and smoked 2 more bowls, to make sure we were chill and didnt do anything too crazy. An hour and a half after the first hit of acid, we were really stoned and it hadn't kicked in yet, Z said it might not have been real acid so we decided to take the 1/8 of shrooms. Big Mistake.
We ate the shrooms and saved the crumbs for the next day to lace with weed. We decided we had best smoke some more weed because the acid could have a little effect, so R rolled us a pretty big joint, about a gram in it. So we were incredibly chilled, and about 30 minutes later it kicked in. I expected the shroom effect I had before, but it was unlike the shrooms or the acid I had taken in the past. The colors reminded me of mushrooms, but the crazy thoughts in my head and the shaky environment told me right then and there that the acid was indeed coming into effect. It had been 2 hours since the first hit of acid.
I looked over at R and he wasn't doing too hot, he was curled up in a ball on my bed staring at the floor. He kept muttering something like, 'I can't fall. I just can't fall'. It's gonna get me. So we decided to smoke some more of the weed seeing as to how he was having a bad trip. That idea was even worse. I looked at the bowl and it was looking kind of funky, I couldn't get the flame in the bowl to spark the weed. I decided to just give up and let R smoke the whole thing, Z and A agreed with me.   Luckily the bowl didnt break.
It had been about 3 hours since the first hit of acid, and the shrooms and both hits of acid were in effect.  It was one of the scariest things I had ever seen in my life.  I was on the floor face down, with my eyes closed. With shrooms I had seen smilie faces and such, and with acid I had seen colors, but oh, not this time. All I could think of was what he said, and there were flames and screams. I couldnt get it out. Obviously the weed had not done much, even though we smoked most of the 1/8. I can only imagine what it must have been like if I didn't smoke the weed.
It was about 4 and a half hours since the first dose, we had taken 550 ugs of acid, 1/8 (3.5 grams) of mushrooms, and 2.5-3 grams of weed. I was still on the floor scared shitless. I looked at R and he wasn't doing to hot at all. Z had done acid some 2 dozen times, shrooms about 15, he seemed to be handling it quite well, so he was talking to R and trying to calm him down. He was enjoying his trip, and decided it would be good to give R a bowl of his weed, he didn't say what it was, but it was stronger then KB. He held the bowl and sparked it for him, but he didnt want to smoke it.
At this point it got really foggy. It was 5 hours into it, and I remember stuff at about 7 and a half. I start remembering stuff at me being in my car, scared shitless of the demon faced people inside that want to kill my family, and on top of that (I'm not sure what happened in that 2 and a half hours) I thought that everyone turned into werewolves and wanted to kill me. Z had managed to get R in bed and chilling, A was in my room with him. A was sketchy, but not as bad as me or R, Z was actually enjoying it. He went out on the roof and was staring at the sky talking about how beautiful it was.
At about 9 hours, I stopped tripping badly. I had vomit on my shirt and had peed my pants (at least that's what it smelled of). I went inside my house, still tripping pretty hard, and found R asleep and A and Z on the roof. I went up on the roof and they looked at me kind of funny, I told them that I wasn't having a bad trip, they were talking to each other and chilling and I joined in. We stared up at the stars and chilled. At about 11 hours the sun was coming up (7 in the morning) and we were still tripping. We went inside and put on The best of the Grateful Dead and laid back. R woke up and was tripping, but he was better (as in he was not having a bad trip) We talked and chilled, staring at my posters of the beatles and method man, and they would come out of the posters and sit next to me and start talking to me. Method Man has a blunt in his mouth in my poster, and we were passing it around.
At 18 hours it was 2 in the afternoon and we started to come down. We all took a nap on my floor, woke up at about 6-7 and didn't go to the party, we were coming down from everything still. We had about 4 bowls of weed laced with shrooms crumbs. We each did a bowl apiece and weren't tripping very hard, but were so happy and stoned. We put on soul plane, then half baked, then idle hands and could not stop laughing. We were crying rivers and it was great. At about 32 hours (4 in the morning) we were coming down from the weed and shroom crumbs, and went to bed.
The first 9 hours of my trip was incredibly horrible, I never want that to happen again. I loved it later on, I will probably do it again but with only 1 hit of acid. I strongly advise anyone intending on doing shrooms and acid to think it over twice, It's rough if you're not up to par.

Decent Work Requires Decent Innovation: Leveraging Entrepreneurial Education to Boost Innovation and Job Creation in MENA
Johan Bjurman Bergman
<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Georgetown University, Walsh School of Foreign Service
Abstract
In the next 30 years, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region faces an unprecedented need for decent work. These jobs should be created by increasing opportunities for private sector organizations to grow. However, despite substantial investment in education over the past decades, the region’s human capital wealth as a share of total wealth remains the lowest globally. This dearth of adequately skilled individuals severely hampers the growth efforts of the private sector and causes economies to stall. This paper explores opportunities for the MENA region to find a solution to the decent jobs crisis by shifting the focus of the education system from an emphasis on rote learning to fostering competencies associated with innovation and entrepreneurship such as critical thinking, creativity, agency, and communication. The article showcases successful examples from other regions, as well as experimental approaches. It concludes by recommending a set of policy changes that can put the region on a path of peace and prosperity by creating opportunities for decent work.
Introduction
According to the World Bank Group, the MENA region will need to create 300 million jobs by 2050. This massive need for decent work is mainly due to a large youth population entering the workforce. Exacerbating the challenge is the major redeployment of human capital driven by the technological changes of the fourth industrial revolution. All countries in the region must create 10 million jobs per year starting in 2019 by opening the doors to the private sector as the main driver of the economy. Consequently, these jobs should primarily be generated through entrepreneurship, here defined as “a process by which individuals - either on their own or inside organizations - pursue opportunities without regard to resources they currently control” .
Discussion
The situation poses a significant challenge for the MENA region, as innovation and entrepreneurial activity remains low across the lion’s share of countries. In the 2018 Global Innovation Index (GII) report, the region scored 34/100, far below North America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific. Furthermore, it is imperative to note that high-income innovation hotspots such as Israel and the UAE significantly boosted the MENA regional score. Indeed, the Global Entrepreneurship Index, a composite indicator of the health of the entrepreneurship ecosystem in 137 countries, mirrors the GII’s results for the region. While the entrepreneurial climate is improving across the region, only 2% of countries score above 50%. In Europe half of the countries surveyed scored above the same threshold.
While both the GEI and GII reports discuss a multitude of levers which can be used to ameliorate the situation, both indicate that investment in the educational achievement of young people is essential to improving a country’s ability to generate new knowledge and to innovate. However, the real challenge lies in increasing the right type of educational achievement.
In an attempt at defining what type of education could boost private sector performance, the GII promotes a focus on “fostering critical thinking, creativity, and behavioral and social skills.” The World Bank further echoed these recommendations in a landmark report on the state of education in MENA published in 2018. The report notes that while substantial investment has been made in education in past decades, resulting in record-setting increases in enrollment and gender parity on almost all levels, it has failed to produce increased human capital and wealth for the region’s 435 million inhabitants. In fact, the focus of the region’s education system on memorization and passive learning over critical inquiry, has contributed to the region ranking at the bottom globally for human capital wealth as a share of total wealth.
In contrast to MENA, South Korea is often celebrated as a champion of economic growth through entrepreneurship. However, before introducing a model of entrepreneurial education modelled after those in place in Europe and the US in 2018, the country lacked a systematic approach to promoting and developing entrepreneurship. These models introduced in Korea originated in part from the OECD’s recommendation in the early 2000s to introduce entrepreneurial education across all grades. Several members countries took the advice, and in its 2012 National Innovation Strategy, Denmark set out to promote innovation and entrepreneurship from primary to tertiary level. The country did so by integrating practice-based teaching into mainstream curriculums while also supporting teachers with innovation training. These interventions, which defined entrepreneurial education as “content, methods, and activities supporting the creation of knowledge, competencies, and experiences that make it possible for students to initiate and participate in entrepreneurial value creating processes” have yielded desirable outcomes . These results include an increase in students’ beliefs in their entrepreneurial skills, higher incomes later in life – for those who are self-employed as well as for employees and an increase in the likelihood of the individual wanting to become an entrepreneur or working on innovation projects in established companies.
In addition to Denmark, Finland, Portugal, and Sweden are other countries that have embedded entrepreneurship education into primary and secondary school curricula. Results have been promising on factors such as the propensity to start a business as well as earnings from own ventures . In the Finnish example, entrepreneurship was introduced as one of seven cross-curricular themes in primary education and one of the six themes in upper secondary schools. This approach allows entrepreneurial thought to permeate all school subjects. It has been suggested that this “teaching through entrepreneurship” approach can, in addition to developing necessary innovation skills, also increase the perceived relevance of subjects taught, increase motivation and school engagement while alleviating issues of boredom. Studies on entrepreneurship education in the wider MENA suggest that this approach of integrating the development of entrepreneurial competencies across subjects such as mathematics, sciences, and social sciences could be viable in the regional context as well.
In the past decade, many novel approaches to achieving this integrated entrepreneurial competency training have appeared. One of them is the Entrepreneurial Muscle Memory (EMM) framework. Developed by Bozhanka Vitanova and her colleagues, is it based on an interview study of 31 pioneering U.S. social entrepreneurs identified through Ashoka, the World Economic Forum Young Global Leaders, and Forbes 30 under 30. By leveraging recurring themes from the interviews relating to entrepreneurial success, the framework proposes seven core entrepreneurial competencies. These include awareness, agency, networking, problem-solving, resourcefulness, communication, and resilience.
The theory suggests that an individual’s first entrepreneurial memories can be traced back to formative experiences which took place between the ages of 10 and 16. It is further proposed that by applying motor learning concepts, individuals can develop these competencies through repetition of movement, much like the way in which athletes develop mastery. The EMM approach has been pilot-tested both in secondary schools in the U.K. as well as in tertiary institutions in the U.S. Participating students reported increased entrepreneurial self-awareness in addition to an increased understanding of the value of entrepreneurial competencies. While experimental theories such as the Entrepreneurial Muscle Memory provide exciting new perspectives on entrepreneurial training, more work is needed to develop such nascent concepts into fully fledged models.
More broadly, researchers have attempted to conceptualize a learning framework for education that develops entrepreneurial competencies. There is agreement that in order to be useful, entrepreneurship education must be tailored to account for differences in culture, context, and circumstances. Moreover, many also concede that programs should be personalized to the individual learner. Consolidating insights from a multitude of studies, the below five elements of entrepreneurial education could prove a helpful guide in creating entrepreneurship education models for the MENA region.
In line with Thrane et al,, the framework starts with an individual self-awareness element where learners discover their competencies, preferences, motivations, means, and network which helps them gain a deeper understanding of their self-efficacy in the entrepreneurial process. A focus on individual competencies also serves to personalize the learning experience for the individual.
Next, a social group element allows students to compare entrepreneurial experiences and learn from each other. Here the students can be turned into teachers, sharing experiences with their peers. Such oral articulation of actions taken and the resulting insights can facilitate the deep learning process significantly according to Russian psychologist Galperin. .
Subsequently, these individual and group insights are applied across academic subjects to achieve an element of everyday practice, which can establish core entrepreneurial competencies, help transform behavior and create memories of increasing success in relation entrepreneurial undertakings.
Furthermore, an aspect of value creation can be introduced. Here, learners are initially primed to identify problems in their surroundings and taught to generalize these in order to assess if an opportunity to create value for a broader public is present. If an opportunity is identified, learners are asked to create innovative solutions, prototype, and devise a business model around it.
Finally, as it relates to the assessment of entrepreneurial competencies the focus should be on assessment for learning, and not of learning. This implies that the assessment should inherently promote learning, emphasizing the process rather than testing the outcomes.
A plethora of insights regarding best practices makes devising a well-rounded and effective model for teaching entrepreneurial competencies difficult. Countries must select and adapt those that can work in the local context. In this process, it is imperative that countries in the West support growth markets with both financial and human resources.
Conclusion
Governments in the MENA region have a formidable challenge ahead--creating decent work for 300 million people in the next 30 years. To this end, countries must improve the opportunity for the private sector to be the leading job creator. In order to heed the call from policymakers, the private sector will require skilled human capital that possess the competencies required for innovation. For years, the region has made significant investments in education without achieving the desired outcomes. It is time to shift the paradigm for education in the region to produce human capital that can drive societies forward. Without this fundamental change, where critical inquiry takes precedence over memorization, no model for entrepreneurship or innovation education can be effective. Therefore, the following recommendations should be considered:
- Shift the models of education from rote memorization which fosters surface learning to an approach based on inquiry that allows for deep learning and unlocks the potential of the region’s youth
- Introduce entrepreneurship education as a cross-curricular theme across all levels of education, allowing innovation competencies to permeate all subjects
- Include innovation and entrepreneurship education for youth in National Innovation Strategies to demonstrate the paramount importance of an early start and continuous building of relevant competencies
- Move away from the assessment of learning, which incentivizes “teaching for tests” to assessment for learning, which incentivizes “teaching for life”
- Provide all stakeholders, including educators, administrators and parents with the requisite training to create a network of student supporters and buy-in throughout the community
Governments in the region need to act fast to implement policies that redirect the region’s excellent investment in education towards financing locally adapted models with a proven track record of delivering the type of talent that the private sector needs to thrive.  However, if the region succeeds in creating the 300 million jobs it needs, it will emerge as a global powerhouse of economic prosperity and peace. It will only get there by pushing the doors to the private sector wide open, relinquishing a degree of societal control. For the sake of the region’s youth, leaders must urgently muster the courage to do so.

In the silence of my heart,
I will spend an hour with thee,
When my love shall rend apart
All the veil of mystery:
All that dim and misty veil
That shut in between our souls
When Death cried, “Ho, maiden, hail!”
And your barque sped on the shoals.
On the shoals? Nay, wrongly said.
On the breeze of Death that sweeps
Far from life, thy soul has sped
Out into unsounded deeps.
I shall take an hour and come
Sailing, darling, to thy side.
Wind nor sea may keep me from
Soft communings with my bride.
I shall rest my head on thee
As I did long days of yore,
When a calm, untroubled sea
Rocked thy vessel at the shore.
I shall take thy hand in mine,
And live o’er the olden days
When thy smile to me was wine,—
Golden wine thy word of praise,
For the carols I had wrought
In my soul’s simplicity;
For the petty beads of thought
Which thine eyes alone could see.
Ah, those eyes, love–blind, but keen
For my welfare and my weal!

I can see thee thro’ my tears,
As thro’ rain we see the sun.
What tho’ cold and cooling years
Shall their bitter courses run,—
I shall see thee still and be
Thy true lover evermore,
And thy face shall be to me
Dear and helpful as before.
Death may vaunt and Death may boast,
But we laugh his pow’r to scorn;
He is but a slave at most,—
Night that heralds coming morn.
I shall spend an hour with thee
Day by day, my little bride.
True love laughs at mystery,
Crying, “Doors of Death, fly wide.”

Most of the funds are coming from mining pools. Presumably, these payments are being sent on behalf of miners who opted to receive their rewards automatically via "direct deposit," and have since forgotten about it.

GatewayBOT30-Jan-19 02:56 PM
[dscrd-hush] <Pixelised> They were even warned by Cryptopia not not use their exchange addresses to mine to. Geez.
GatewayBOT30-Jan-19 03:10 PM
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> "never mine to an address for which you don't own the private key"
"Never mine to an address for which you don't own the private key".
2 weeks after Cryptopia's hack, miners are still mining to the exchange + the attackers get free money for no extra work, since they stole the private keys + deleted Cryptopia's copy

[dscrd-hush] <Roxin> Yes..but some of us maybe want to trade..for example exactly that day i move my hush from windows wallet to cryptopia to trade a little, and that day they put wallets into maintenance..and after that..this is what happend..shit
GatewayBOT30-Jan-19 05:53 PM
[dscrd-hush] <Roxin> Why i cant find hush on agama wallet ?
[dscrd-hush] <Roxin> Know someone ?
[dscrd-hush] <admon> you can use another wallets like zelcore, never send Mining rewards to a exchange.
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> @Roxin enable experimental settings, exit, restart. Hush will be there
[dscrd-hush] <heguli97> We got it sorted out.
[dscrd-hush] <Roxin> Yes, resolved thanks to @heguli97 , thank you
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> we have vague plans to basically make our own "skinned" version of Agama, where hush is enabled by default, and Hush+BTCH are highlighted with our own custom graphics/etc, still supporting all the stuff agama supports. we would need somebody to step up to make such a thing
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> FYI Mobile Agama also supports Hush, probably needs same experimental setting enabled
[dscrd-hush] <SHossain> Mobile Agama doesn't need Advanced feature to be activated
[dscrd-hush] <SHossain> only the desktop version needs that
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> 100 HUSH bounty on that issue above ^^^ /cc @gilardh and any body that wants to do frontend web dev work
[dscrd-hush] <heguli97> Since you're here, I'm trying to change where i want the blockchain data to be downloaded for the swing wallet and the Datadir option in hush.conf doesn't seem to do anything for me, for example i type in 'datadir=D:\Hush' but it still starts downloading to 'AppData\Roaming\Hush'. Any advice or am i doing something wrong?
[dscrd-hush] <heguli97> Maybe it needs to be in a different format?(edited)
GatewayBOT30-Jan-19 08:46 PM
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> @heguli97 does the directory D:\Hush already exist and your user has permisions to write to it, if it does?
[dscrd-hush] <LucasC> Hey was looking for an explorer link as looks like the explorer.myhush.org is offline. The explorer.hush.zelcore.io above is OK?
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> yes
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> zelcore's explorer is based on a much newer version of the insight explorer and has lots of nice features(edited)
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> current hush explorer is down for maintenance
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> i broke it and just don't have time to fix it properly on that server, no good reason except that. I was trying to add notarization/dpow data to it
[dscrd-hush] <LucasC> Cool I see some nice stats there although black color would be nicer to suit hush
[dscrd-hush] <LucasC> Thx for info, have a good day.

GatewayBOT01-Feb-19 05:08 PM
[dscrd-hush] <ITM> @heguli97 Problem is they stolen a lot of private keys and removed nearly all private keys. So recovery is extremely unlikely.
GatewayBOT01-Feb-19 05:28 PM
[dscrd-hush] <Roxin> I think that was an inside job...
GatewayBOT01-Feb-19 05:55 PM
[dscrd-hush] <ITM> @Roxin Maybe, but I think most likely they never secure the eth server where the node was running.
- Either they never patch the server
- SSL login was guessed
- Bug in the code that allowed sql inject query to execute
Am still hoping for the first 2, if the 3rd one then we screwed. Since they never mention anything about how many keys was stolen and removed. well I written off the lost by buying cheap.
I lost ~2000 stuck hush and had 5000 hush in sell trades and 0.02 with buy orders. Total of 7000hush + 0.02 btc. I refill supply at 1000 sats x 12000. so lost was less then $300.
GatewayBOT01-Feb-19 08:12 PM
[dscrd-hush] <heguli97> I calculated my losses and i have around 6000 hush stuck on Cryptopia.

[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> I haven't seen any mention of other coins being stolen from cryptopia
[dscrd-hush] <dukeleto> it may be that the server that had all ETH+erc20 wallets was compromised, but others were not

In this case, the method in a subclass will be overloading the method from the superclass instead of overriding it. If it is unintended, it may result in latent bugs.
Example:
public class Foo {
void foo(int x) {}
}
public class Bar extends Foo {
void foo(Number x) {} // Method 'foo()' overloads a compatible method of a superclass,
// when overriding might have been intended
}
Use the option to choose whether the inspection should also report cases where parameter types are not compatible.


 Every morning, you watch the boys go to school, and you wonder if you made the right decision.  You fetch the water from the village well every morning, then you play with the other children in the village. In the afternoon you help your mother with chores - such as mending clothes, preparing dinner, and washing clothes. In the evenings you often go over to David and watch him do homeworks, and prod him about what he's learned in school that day.
 Your heart is breaking when you see her struggle to make sure that you and your sisters have food for the day. Here and there your overwhelmed with anger towards your father for abandoning your family.      In these moments you swear that you will make things better for yourself and your family.
 You stand in the entrance, casting a long shadow into the single room that your family lives in.  You don't know what has happened, but you go to your family and hug them.
"Chicken, your father was here..." your mother's voice cracks.
Your heart skips a beat, your father? He was here visiting? You feel sadness that you missed a chance to meet your father for the first time. You realize your oldest sister's birthday was a couple of days ago, that was probably why he was here right? To give her a present for turning 17. You don't understand why your family is crying over your father visiting. Then a hope sparks in your heart, maybe he gave you something too? You know he works in the capital and earns a lot of money.
"Ma, did father give me a present??" you blurt out.

"No, chicken. He didn't give you anything, he doesn't care about us."
And with that, the hope in your heart is extinguished. You feel foolish thinking that he was here for you.
"Why was he here?" you can't figure out what he was doing here, if he doesn't care about your family.
"Chicken, he came for Clara."
A small "Oh" escapes your lips, so he was here for your oldest sister's birthday.
"If he was here for Clara's birthday, why are you crying?" you frown.
"Chicken, he wasn't here to give Clara anything."
"Rosie, look at me" she demands.

"He came for Clara, he has arranged for her to get married..." she's still holding your gaze to make sure you understand what she's saying.

"Married? To whom?" you ask your mother, as you had no idea that Clara was even in love.
You've heard your sisters sit by the fire in the evenings, gossiping about boys they find cute, but Clara hasn't mentioned anybody special.
"Rosie, this is a business transaction for your father."
You're stunned.
"Will she come back?" you whisper.
"She will marry a man in the neighbouring village. She will be able to visit, and we can visit her.
"Will we go to the wedding?"

"It's taking place tomorrow. Your father has arranged it all. We cannot afford to go."
 A sob escapes your lips, and then another.  You're all huddling on the floor crying and hugging each other.

(powder / crystals) |
The night started off innocently enough; a birthday party for a friend that degenerated into a pool of drooling drug fiends! No, really, it was quite an enjoyable and laid back evening. Two of the participants were on some cubensis mushroom tea and the birthday girl and her boyfriend were on pure psilocybin, whereas I chose the 20 mg of 2CT-2, something I had yet to try and I knew would be on a similar time course to the mushrooms.
Earlier that day, I had eaten breakfast and light lunch of soup. I waited until the people drinking the cubensis tea to finish their liquid before I took my capsule, along with the psilocybin takers. This was at about 6 pm and after passing a small joint of low grade cannabis around. I believe I may have had a beer before hand as well, but then switched to water.
The first alert came in the bathroom when I went to relieve my self at about T+20. I noticed a distinct psychedelic body awareness that was separate from the mild cannabis high. I also noticed myself engaging less and less in the conversation. It wasn't that I didn't have anything to say, or felt uncomfortable, but it seemed like I felt more and more that what I had to say was somewhat meaningless, so I abstained.
The upswing was gradual, and built up first in kinesthetic awareness/distortions and a general pleasant body high. This was enhanced by my friend's bass cannon that he built and had on his home stereo that greatly enhanced the bass in the room (particuarly on one lazy-boy chair). Slight tracers were evident at about T+45, but the visuals really didn't kick in until about T+60 and peaked at about T+90.
The peak lasted about an hour. The visuals consisted of mild visual field distortions. This was enhanced by the atmosphere of LED christmas lights and candles and good wall adornments. The colors blended well together and seemed somewhat enhanced. The visuals seemed to taper off somewhat quickly, perhaps over about 30 minutes, and all of us seemed to be in a post-peak tripping state with minimal visuals at about T+180.
Mentally, I felt rather lucid, barring the effects of the cannabis. I felt somewhat detached and in an observant role. It was neither pleasant or unpleasant, but I was content to be where I was. Again, I was abstaining from conversation for the most part, but throwing in comments now and then so that I wouldnt seem disconnected and be a concern. I enjoyed observing the mushroom/psilocybin converstations and noting the points of confusion, but decided not to clarify things and just enjoy the chaos.
After the visuals trailed off, conversation seemed natural and I slipped into a somewhat more pleasant state of being, akin to the tail end of a mushroom trip. This certainly could have been influenced by the other people in the room being on psilocybin in one form or another, which I also suspect affected my trip overall.
I was neither anorexic or really had too much interest in food. Because I hadn't eaten any dinner, I was somewhat hungry, but was reluctant to fill up on cake and ice cream and other snacks. A tangerine was quite delicious and enjoyable to eat (as usual), and the ice cream was tasty, but the excess dairy was a little much for my empty stomach. A beer was good and the burps felt refreshing. A carrot dipped in a cream cheese/mango chutney dip was quite good. Later in evening (~T+6hr), I had a large serving of cake which my body seemed to enjoy.
I hung out until about T+7hr and drove myself home.  I was in control however, and it wasnt much different than being a little stoned (which I probably was). I stayed up reading and thinking a bit, and then tried to sleep.
I think a cold that I was just getting that day might have kicked in towards the end of the evening, as I had a headache and scratchy throat when I tried to sleep, which added to the slight T2-induced insomnia. However, after an iboprofen kicked in, I managed to pass out at about T+8.5hr. All in all it was a very pleasant, short trip, with no real body load, poor social interaction during the peak (but possible), moderate visuals, a good body feeling, and mild insomnia at 8hrs.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter
The reason most people never reach their goals is that they don’t define them, or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable. Winners can tell you where they are going, what they plan to do along the way, and who will be sharing the adventure with them.
Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.
The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible.

Poster component property order
Category: Tips
Often when loading images from the web, we do not have control over how large the source images are.
However, the Poster
component does have the ability to automatically resize the incoming image as it is loaded so
that no excess memory is used. The Roku docs indicate that you can use the following
properties to control how the image is loaded into memory:
loadWith
loadHeight
loadDisplayMode
By using these properties, you can load an image that is normally too large but only consume the memory required for the desired final size. For example:
<Poster uri="http://big.image" loadDisplayMode="scaleToZoom" loadWidth="720" loadHeight="405" />
If you view the texture memory, you can see:
But wait - why does it report that the image is 1920x1080 if we specified it to be 720x405? The Roku docs actually mention the reason, but it is not always immediately obvious:
In order for the load scaling options to work, the option fields must be set in XML markup before the
uri
field.
What that means is that property source order is important. As soon as the uri
field is set, the image begins loading
with whatever options have been set. If the load*
properties have not been set yet, they will be ignored. So we need to
change our markup to ensure that the uri
is set after the other properties:
<Poster loadDisplayMode="scaleToZoom" loadWidth="720" loadHeight="405" uri="http://big.image" />
Now when you view the texture memory, you see:
That looks more like it. Even though the Roku docs mention this, it catches lots of folks off guard since xml property order is normally not significant.

ESCAPE FROM ABSOLOM A Film Review Copyright Dragan Antulov 1999
Among the names of the cast and crew that are supposed attract the audience to the films, producers are usually least used. However, there are some exceptions. One of them is Gale Anne Hurd, former spouse of James Cameron and producer of ALIENS. Her name on the credits was reason enough for the author of this review to actually watch ESCAPE FROM ABSOLOM, 1994 futuristic prison thriller, directed by Martin Campbell.
Those who had watched FORTRESS, 1993 film by Stuart Gordon, would find some familiar scenes in the beginning of ABSOLOM. The year is 2022 and prisons became the profitable business. Former Marine Captain John Robbins (played by Ray Liotta) had killed his general and got sentenced to life in maximum security, state of the art prison called Leviticus. However, after ofending the sadistic warden (Michael Lerner), Robbins finds himself dumped on Absolom, small Pacific island from which there is no escape. The prisoners like Robbins are left to fend for themselves, and Robbins soon finds two factions - savage, barbaric Outsiders led by brutal Marek (Stuart Wilson) and peaceful, idealistic Insiders led by Father (Lance Henriksen) who want to redeem their past sins by making the island their private utopia. After a while, Robbins would use his military talents to help Insiders in their struggle against Outsiders.
ESCAPE FROM ABSOLOM is just another proof that producers, no matter how good their reputation is, can't guarantee quality of the film in the absence of talented or, at least capable, writers and directors. Screenplay by Michael Gaylin and Joel Gross, based on the novel PENAL COLONY by Richard Herley, has a rather weak and hardly plausible concept - heartless futuristic society, who had shown no concern for the wellbeing of prisoners, still ready to spend billions on keeping them in supertechnological chains instead of simply killing them. However, unlike FORTRESS who had the similar flaw, this film offers quite a different feel. Instead of supertechnology, we have society brought down to good old post-apocalyptic savagery, in many ways reminding us of MAD MAX and LORD OF THE FLIES. For some time, it looks like the film might leave the audience with something to think about - nature of evil and violence, but then it all boils down to predictable and cliched prison break subplot. Thankfully, there is always enough hand- to-hand combat to make us forget the actual plot. The actors are mostly fine - Liotta, although not a real action hero, is believable as killer turned into nice guy; character actors, mostly British, are also superb. However, Stuart Wilson as chief villain is almost laughable, proving again (same as in LETHAL WEAPON 3) that he lacks adequate charisma for such task. Action scenes are adequately directed by Martin Campbell and also there aren't any female characters to slow down the action with unnecessary romantic subplots. This film mostly is watchable, but then, as many other similarly forgettable action films, everything culminates in predictable yet unbelievable and lame finale. After such finale, most of the viewers would feel cheated, even if they hadn't got high hopes before watching this bellow-the-average Hollywood genre product.

Advanced Connections¶
The following guide contains information specific to certain types of MongoDB configurations.
For an example of connecting to a simple standalone server, see the Tutorial. To establish a connection with authentication options enabled, see the Authentication page.
Connecting to a Replica Set¶
Connecting to a replica set is much like connecting to a standalone MongoDB server. Simply specify the replica set name using the ?replicaSet=myreplset
URI option.
#include <bson/bson.h>
#include <mongoc/mongoc.h>
int
main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
mongoc_client_t *client;
mongoc_init ();
/* Create our MongoDB Client */
client = mongoc_client_new (
"mongodb://host01:27017,host02:27017,host03:27017/?replicaSet=myreplset");
/* Do some work */
/* TODO */
/* Clean up */
mongoc_client_destroy (client);
mongoc_cleanup ();
return 0;
}
Tip
Multiple hostnames can be specified in the MongoDB connection string URI, with a comma separating hosts in the seed list.
It is recommended to use a seed list of members of the replica set to allow the driver to connect to any node.
Connecting to a Sharded Cluster¶
To connect to a sharded cluster, specify the mongos
nodes the client should connect to. The C Driver will automatically detect that it has connected to a mongos
sharding server.
If more than one hostname is specified, a seed list will be created to attempt failover between the mongos
instances.
Warning
Specifying the replicaSet
parameter when connecting to a mongos
sharding server is invalid.
#include <bson/bson.h>
#include <mongoc/mongoc.h>
int
main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
mongoc_client_t *client;
mongoc_init ();
/* Create our MongoDB Client */
client = mongoc_client_new ("mongodb://myshard01:27017/");
/* Do something with client ... */
/* Free the client */
mongoc_client_destroy (client);
mongoc_cleanup ();
return 0;
}
Connecting to an IPv6 Address¶
The MongoDB C Driver will automatically resolve IPv6 addresses from host names. However, to specify an IPv6 address directly, wrap the address in []
.
mongoc_uri_t *uri = mongoc_uri_new ("mongodb://[::1]:27017");
Connecting with IPv4 and IPv6¶
If connecting to a hostname that has both IPv4 and IPv6 DNS records, the behavior follows RFC-6555. A connection to the IPv6 address is attempted first. If IPv6 fails, then a connection is attempted to the IPv4 address. If the connection attempt to IPv6 does not complete within 250ms, then IPv4 is tried in parallel. Whichever succeeds connection first cancels the other. The successful DNS result is cached for 10 minutes.
As a consequence, attempts to connect to a mongod only listening on IPv4 may be delayed if there are both A (IPv4) and AAAA (IPv6) DNS records associated with the host.
To avoid a delay, configure hostnames to match the MongoDB configuration. That is, only create an A record if the mongod is only listening on IPv4.
Connecting to a UNIX Domain Socket¶
On UNIX-like systems, the C Driver can connect directly to a MongoDB server using a UNIX domain socket. Pass the URL-encoded path to the socket, which must be suffixed with .sock
. For example, to connect to a domain socket at /tmp/mongodb-27017.sock
:
mongoc_uri_t *uri = mongoc_uri_new ("mongodb://%2Ftmp%2Fmongodb-27017.sock");
Include username and password like so:
mongoc_uri_t *uri = mongoc_uri_new ("mongodb://user:pass@%2Ftmp%2Fmongodb-27017.sock");
Connecting to a server over TLS¶
These are instructions for configuring TLS/SSL connections.
To run a server locally (on port 27017, for example):
$ mongod --port 27017 --tlsMode requireTLS --tlsCertificateKeyFile server.pem --tlsCAFile ca.pem
Add /?tls=true
to the end of a client URI.
mongoc_client_t *client = NULL;
client = mongoc_client_new ("mongodb://localhost:27017/?tls=true");
MongoDB requires client certificates by default, unless the --tlsAllowConnectionsWithoutCertificates
is provided. The C Driver can be configured to present a client certificate using the URI option tlsCertificateKeyFile
, which may be referenced through the constant MONGOC_URI_TLSCERTIFICATEKEYFILE
.
mongoc_client_t *client = NULL;
mongoc_uri_t *uri = mongoc_uri_new ("mongodb://localhost:27017/?tls=true");
mongoc_uri_set_option_as_utf8 (uri, MONGOC_URI_TLSCERTIFICATEKEYFILE, "client.pem");
client = mongoc_client_new_from_uri (uri);
The client certificate provided by tlsCertificateKeyFile
must be issued by one of the server trusted Certificate Authorities listed in --tlsCAFile
, or issued by a CA in the native certificate store on the server when omitted.
See Configuring TLS for more information on the various TLS related options.
Compressing data to and from MongoDB¶
MongoDB 3.4 added Snappy compression support, zlib compression in 3.6, and zstd compression in 4.2. To enable compression support the client must be configured with which compressors to use:
mongoc_client_t *client = NULL;
client = mongoc_client_new ("mongodb://localhost:27017/?compressors=snappy,zlib,zstd");
The compressors
option specifies the priority order of compressors the
client wants to use. Messages are compressed if the client and server share any
compressors in common.
Note that the compressor used by the server might not be the same compressor as
the client used. For example, if the client uses the connection string
compressors=zlib,snappy
the client will use zlib
compression to send
data (if possible), but the server might still reply using snappy
,
depending on how the server was configured.
The driver must be built with zlib and/or snappy and/or zstd support to enable compression support, any unknown (or not compiled in) compressor value will be ignored. Note: to build with zstd requires cmake 3.12 or higher.
Additional Connection Options¶
The full list of connection options can be found in the mongoc_uri_t docs.

Gecode::Search::ReCoStack Class Reference
#include <search.hh>
Detailed Description
Stack of nodes supporting recomputation.Maintains the invariant that it contains the path of the node being currently explored. This is required to support recomputation, of course.
The stack supports adaptive recomputation controlled by the value of a_d: only if the recomputation distance is at least this large, an additional clone is created.
Definition at line 278 of file search.hh.
