Christmas adverts 2019: Watch retailers from Argos to M&S and Amazon launch their festive ad campaigns
by Jessica ClarkWe might only be a week into November but some of UK’s biggest retailers have already launched their 2019 Christmas advert campaigns, as firms race to make the most of the crucial festive trading period after a challenging year for the high street.
In what has become a festive tradition, retailers have pulled out all the stops to get noticed in an increasingly competitive market, roping in famous faces, choosing the catchiest songs and developing heart-warming story lines to capture shoppers’ attention as Brits gear up for the annual Christmas spending spree.

The advert everyone is waiting for – John Lewis’s – is yet to be revealed and the release date is still under wraps, but here’s a round-up of the biggest Christmas advert releases so far:
Boots
High street giant Boots’ 2019 Christmas advert focuses on the stress finding the perfect gift can cause after commissioning research that found a third of shoppers are worried about choosing the right present.
As part of its Christmas campaign ‘Gift Like You Get Them’ the retailer has launched “Bootiques”; a selection of gifts designed to help people struggling to buy the right present. They are curated around different personalities such as “what to buy the person who lies awake dreaming of sleep”, “what to buy the person who loves working out nearly as much as talking about it” and “what to buy the moody tweenager formerly known as your little angel”.

Marks & Spencer Food
Marks & Spencer has stuck to the traditional formula with its 2019 offering; an idyllic snowy scene, a school choir, celebrity cameos, festive food close-ups and its classic catchphrase, “it’s not just food…this is M&S Christmas food”.
Viewers are led through a Christmas market by TV presenters Paddy McGuinness and Emma Willis, who sample the retailer’s popular seasonal products alongside real M&S customers and bump into Amanda Holden and Rochelle Humes.
It’s all set to an arrangement of Fleetwood Mac’s Albatross, sung by Ysgol Gynradd Llwyncelyn primary school from Wales after coaching from Justin and Dan Hawkins of The Darkness.

Aldi
Kevin the Carrot returns in Aldi’s Christmas advert this year, which features a Christmas rendition of Robbie Williams’ Let me Entertain You, and a gang of flat cap wearing sprouts – the Leafy Blinders.

The advert begins with Russell Sprout and the Leafy Blinders threatening Kevin, who’s stolen the show as the star Christmas vegetable, before the carrot is able to escape to deliver a “Christmas Spectacular” show. Aldi UK marketing director Sean McGinty said: “Kevin’s popularity grows every year and he’s becoming something of a national treasure.”
Selfridges
Selfridges has launched a futuristic ad campaign for this festive period starring actress Noomi Rapace, Cambridge Analytica whistleblower Christopher Wiley and Dior Homme creative director Kim Jones.
The cutting edge advert takes viewers from a dinner party to a house party set 1,000 years in the future, featuring an ad-libbed spoken word voice over performed by actor and musician Little Simz.

Amazon
In Amazon’s Christmas advert this year, families, friends, colleagues and strangers from all walks of life sing and dance to “Everybody Needs Somebody to Love” accompanied by a chorus of singing Amazon boxes.
“What matters most at Christmas is spending quality time together, with loved ones, family and friends,” said Simon Morris, vice president of Global Creative at Amazon. And buying all your presents off Amazon, of course.

Argos
The very nineties tradition of flicking through the Argos catalogue and circling your most wanted gifts is celebrated in the retailer’s 2019 advert, titled “The Book of Dreams”, which sees a father and daughter bond over a shared love of music.

The advert begins with a father seeing that his daughter has circled a drum kit in the catalogue, before a set of drums appears in front of him and the kitchen becomes the set of an impromptu gig as the duo drum along to Simple Minds’ 80s classic “Don’t You Forget About Me”.

Iceland
In 2018 frozen food specialist Iceland hit the headlines after it used its Christmas ad ‘Rang Tan’ as a call to action over the use of palm oil. The eco-conscious film beat Christmas marketing giant John Lewis to take crown for the “most watched Christmas advert ever”.
This year the retailer has played it safe with a collaboration with Disney’s Frozen 2. Frozen favourites such as Elsa, Princess Anna, Kristoff, Sven and Olaf feature in the exclusive animation, that sees the characters take part in a family game of charades, as Iceland also launches a Frozen-inspired food and toy range.
Visa
Payment provider Visa has featured real shopkeepers – including a bookseller, greengrocer, antique dealer and cafe owner – singing along to Queen’s Somebody to Love. Its 2019 Christmas advert is a call for consumers to back independent retailers on the high street – plenty of whom rely on Visa, as it so happens.
Retailers have also been invited to create their own version of the advert in a bid to win a prime-time commercial spot on national TV.
Visa UK and Ireland managing director Jeni Mundy said: “Through our Christmas campaign, we want to inspire people to visit and support their high streets, not just over the crucial festive period, but throughout the year.”

Ikea
Swedish homeware retailer Ikea has launched its first ever Christmas advert, which aims to encourage the UK to defy “home shame” and open their houses up to guests over the festive season. Ikea said the advert – which features a couple being taunted by animate objects over the state of their home – is designed to go against the tide of sentimental Christmas ads.
“It was born from the common feeling, that along with the seasonal joys, a lot of us feel a looming sense of dread when it comes to hosting others with many of us feel ashamed of our homes over the Christmas period,” Ikea UK and Ireland county marketing manager Sarah Green said.

“We believe that every home can and should be worthy of a get-together and that with a little imagination, some clever products and ideas, there’s no reason not to be proud to invite your nearest and dearest over.”

GOVERNMENT OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA Office of Contracting and Procurement Open Government Report 2014 To institutionalize a culture of transparent and open government, accountability, and to expand opportunities for resident participation and collaboration, this Report describes how the Office of Contracting and Procurement has and will continue to develop and enhance transparency, public participation, and collaboration. In accordance with Mayor’s Order 2014-170, this report addresses the following topics: 1) Transparency In FY14, transparency was a top priority for the Office of Contracting and Procurement. The overarching goal was to build on the publicly reported data that OCP currently shares to provide the public with better insight as to how OCP spends taxpayer dollars on behalf of District agencies. For several years, OCP has made the following data sets publicly available: purchase orders, purchase card transactions, notices of contract award, and notices of intent to award sole source contracts. In FY14, OCP started the following initiatives in an effort to improve transparency: • In conjunction with OCTO, the agency’s website was reorganized to make it more user-friendly and the information more readily accessible to our customers. • The OCP IT team created a link between the Procurement Automated Support System and the OCP website to automatically publish awarded contracts to the website. The training manuals and sessions for the staff and the legal team are almost complete and the official rollout is expected in the next 60 to 90 days. In FY15, OCP will continue its work to advance transparency in compliance with the Procurement Practices Reform Act of 2010 and to improve overall understanding of the contracting process. 2) Public Engagement and Participation Rules and Regulations The rules and regulations that guide OCP’s work are the 27 DC Municipal Regulations and the Procurement Practices Reform Act of 2010, and are posted on the OCP website here and here. OCP follows standard procedures for promulgating all proposed rule changes in the DC Register for the 30 day comment period. 1 Stakeholder Engagement The OCP Customer Contact Center (CCC) is the primary point-of-contact for the vendor community and our agency customers. The CCC team provides general information to vendors, technical support, and vendor education. On a monthly basis, OCP offers two workshops to provide vendors an understanding of how to do business with the District, namely the General Vendor Workshop and the DC Supply Schedule workshop. These workshops provide a general overview of the procurement process, the basic requirements for a vendor to meet to do business with the District, and the application process for the DC Supply Schedule. OCP partners with the Department of Small and Local Business Development to facilitate the workshops. In addition to the vendor workshops offered by OCP, the agency also participated in over 10 community events aimed at introducing the vendor community to doing business with the District. These events included: • Councilmember Vincent Orange’s Small Business Summit; • Greater Brookland Business Association monthly meeting; • Fort Myer Small Business Roundtable • Second Annual DC to Africa: Growing Local, Going Global Business Symposium; and • National Black Business League Annual ProBiz Conference, among others. In FY14, OCP also targeted the Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) community to introduce two programs that are growing rapidly: • Surplus Property – The OCP Surplus Property program auctions gently used furniture, office supplies and equipment, vehicles, and other items that have been surplused from District government agencies as well as provides District-based 8A firms and non-profit organizations access to the federal surplus property program. In FY14, the Surplus Property program organized three roundtables to introduce non-profit organizations and the CBE community to the surplus property available to them through OCP. • Sustainable Purchasing – In FY14, another major project was the development of sustainable purchasing specifications and policies to inform some purchasing decisions. In December 2013, OCP, in partnership with DSLBD, hosted 35 vendors at a roundtable to gain insight and feedback from the District’s vendors that offer sustainable products. In planning for FY15, the priority is to create more opportunities for proactive engagement with the vendor community and other key stakeholders to educate them on the procurement process and the programs OCP . One such idea is a reverse trade fair, which gives small businesses an opportunity to market to District Government agencies that procure their goods and services. Another idea in the works is to promote our public facing programs through social media. 2 3) Collaboration In FY14, one of the Chief Procurement Officer’s priorities was eliminating silos that impede seamless coordination between the procurement office and the agency program. Accordingly, collaboration is the centerpiece of the procurement reform initiative OCP has led over the last 18 months. In February 2014, the Chief Procurement Officer announced the agency’s shift to the Delegated Procurement Authority model to better support its customer agencies’ procurement needs. Sixty members of the contracting staff were assigned to 22 customer agencies to serve as in- house procurement experts. The contracting staff now works closely with the program and budget teams at customer agencies to plan and execute their procurement needs. OCP anticipates improved customer satisfaction and potentially reduced cycle times and improved overall customer satisfaction. In FY15, OCP’s plan is to regularly measure agency customer satisfaction through a variety of survey methods. The goal is to make policy and practice decisions based on real data and feedback from our customers. 3

Good grief, Christmas is big at the Gaylord Texan
by Ed GodfreyGRAPEVINE, Texas — They say things are bigger in Texas. Well, that includes Christmas.
Each year, the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center in Grapevine becomes a 125-acre winter wonderland for the holidays.
Two million holiday lights, 2,000 poinsettias and 15,000 ornaments decorate the hotel’s indoor atrium. The hotel has more than 200 Christmas trees, including one 54 feet tall. There are 5,600 feet of garland and 2,300 decorated wreaths. A miniature train rolls through that atrium, which is guarded by 25-foot-tall nutcrackers.
Eat your heart out, Hallmark.
The Lone Star Christmas Experience features ice skating on a 6,000-square-foot outdoor rink; snow tubing on a two-story, eight-lane indoor hill with 2 million pounds of real snow; a Christmas carousel; gingerbread house decorating; a Christmas village with goodies and gifts; and the star attraction, the ICE! exhibit.
Artisans from Harbin, China, come to Texas each year to hand carve ice sculptures of Christmas images and spend a month working on the project. This year’s theme is “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” and the Peanuts gang looks splendid carved and painted in ice. Snoopy has never been cooler.
A journey through the exhibit is like a journey through the Charlie Brown Christmas television special and ends with a stunning life-size nativity scene in ice.
This is the 16th annual ICE! exhibit at the Gaylord Texan and a repeat performance for the Peanuts characters. Charlie Brown and friends were the main attraction 10 years ago, and many people surveyed over the last decade asked for their return, said Martha Neibling, director of marketing and public relations for the Gaylord Texan hotel.
Scenes within this year's ICE! exhibit include a bewildered Charlie Brown checking an empty mailbox for a Christmas card, Lucy the psychiatrist offering life advice for a nickel, Snoopy’s prize-winning decorated dog house and Linus on stage explaining the true meaning of Christmas, just to name a few.
And, of course, there are the classic scenes of the Peanuts gang ice skating and singing around the Christmas tree. The tent must be kept at 9 F so each guest is given a parka to wear while walking through and viewing the ICE! exhibit. It would be a good idea to bring your own gloves, too, because it is a cold walk.
It takes about a half-hour to view the ice sculptures, assuming you don’t stop and play. The exhibit also features six two-story ice slides for the kids and an ICE Bar for ages 21 and up.
Christmas Village
The ICE! exhibit and Christmas Village, located in the convention center that connects to the hotel, opened Nov. 15. On opening weekend there was more than one family — grandparents included — all dressed in Charlie Brown pajamas and making Christmas memories.
The Lone Star Christmas Experience is not only for hotel guests. It is open to the public, but there is a fee for each activity and parking on the grounds, so don’t plan on being a Scrooge if you go.
In the Christmas Village is a Build-A-Bear workshop, and for the first 1,000 bears bought and donated to Marlee’s Smile (a charity that helps children battling cancer), both Build-A-Bear and the Gaylord Texan hotel will match the donation.
Other activities in the hotel for the kids include a breakfast with the Peanuts gang, a Holiday Escape Room, a Merry Snoopy Christmas Scavenger Hunt, Mrs. Claus reading Christmas stories and photos with jolly ol’ St. Nick himself.
The ICE! exhibit and Christmas activities run through Jan. 5. Santa Claus, however, will be checking out of the hotel on Christmas Eve. He has to work that night.
Ed Godfrey's visit to the Gaylord Texan was paid for by the resort. For more details on the Gaylord Texan’s Lone Star Christmas events and activities, or to buy tickets and holiday room packages, go to www.christmasatgaylordtexan.com.

Dat Protocol
DEP-0003: HTTP Pinning Service API
Title: DEP-0003: HTTP Pinning Service API
Short Name: 0003-http-pinning-service-api
Type: Standard
Status: Draft (as of 2018-04-18)
Github PR: Draft
Authors: Paul Frazee
Summary
An HTTP API for adding and removing Dat data.
Motivation
Users frequently make use of "pinning services" to keep their Dat data online independently of their personal devices. By specifying a standard API for accessing pinning services, we can integrate interfaces for these services to Dat clients (including the Dat CLI and Beaker Browser). For example, in the Dat CLI, it will be possible to execute commands such as:
dat publish --name myarchive my-pinning-service.com
Service description (PSA) document
Servers should host the PSA service-description document at /.well-known/psa
.
It may be fetched using a GET request. This document will fit the following schema:
{
"PSA": 1,
"title": "My Pinning Service",
"description": "Keep your Dats online!",
"links": [{
"rel": "https://archive.org/services/purl/purl/datprotocol/spec/pinning-service-account-api",
"title": "User accounts API",
"href": "/v1/accounts"
}, {
"rel": "https://archive.org/services/purl/purl/datprotocol/spec/pinning-service-dats-api",
"title": "Dat pinning API",
"href": "/v1/dats"
}]
}
You can read more about the PSA Service Discovery Protocol.
The PSA document must provide links to two API resources: the User Accounts
API, and the Dat Pinning API. These resources should be indicated by the
https://archive.org/services/purl/purl/datprotocol/spec/pinning-service-account-api
and https://archive.org/services/purl/purl/datprotocol/spec/pinning-service-dats-api
rel-types, respectively. (These rel-types will need to be updated
with the final URLs for their specifications.) If either API is absent from
the PSA document, the service will be rejected.
User accounts API
The user-accounts API should provide the following resources:
POST /login Create a new session with an existing account.
POST /logout End a session.
GET /account Get information about the account attached to the current session.
POST /login
Create a new session with an existing account.
Request body (JSON). All fields required:
{
username: String
password: String
}
Handler should generate a session and return the identifier in the response. Response body (JSON):
{
sessionToken: String
}
POST /logout
End a session.
Request should include authentication header.
GET /account
Get information about the account attached to the current session.
Request should include authentication header.
Response body (JSON):
{
username: String, the accounts username (required)
email: String, the accounts email (optional)
diskUsage: Number, how much disk space has the user's data taken? (optional)
diskQuota: Number, how much disk space can the user's data take? (optional)
updatedAt: Number, the Unix timestamp of the last time the user account was updated (optional)
createdAt: Number, the Unix timestamp of the last time the user account was updated (optional)
}
If diskQuota
is not included or is set to 0, the service is acting as a "registry" and will not host the files.
Dat pinning API
The dat pinning API should provide the following resources:
GET / List all Dat data pinned by this account.
POST /add Add a Dat to this account's list of pins.
POST /remove Remove a Dat from this account's list of pins.
GET /item/:key Get information about a Dat in the account's list of pins.
POST /item/:key Update information about a Dat in the account's list of pins.
GET /
List all Dat data pinned by this account.
Request should include authentication header.
Response body (JSON):
{
items: [{
url: String, dat url
name: String, optional shortname assigned by the user
title: String, optional title extracted from the dat's manifest file
description: String, optional description extracted from the dat's manifest file
additionalUrls: Array of Strings, optional list of URLs the dat can be accessed at
}]
}
POST /add
Add a Dat to this account's list of pins.
Request should include authentication header. Request body (JSON):
{
url: String, required url/key of the dat
name: String, optional shortname for the archive
domains: Array of Strings, optional list of domain-names the dat should be made available at
}
POST /remove
Remove a Dat from this account's list of pins.
Request should include authentication header. Request body (JSON):
{
url: String, required url/key of the dat
}
GET /item/:key
Get information about a Dat in the account's list of pins. Key must be the pubkey of the dat.
Response body (JSON):
{
url: String, dat url
name: String, optional shortname assigned by the user
title: String, optional title extracted from the dat's manifest file
description: String, optional description extracted from the dat's manifest file
additionalUrls: Array of Strings, optional list of URLs the dat can be accessed at
}
POST /item/:key
Update information about a Dat in the account's list of pins. Key must be the pubkey of the dat.
Request body (JSON):
{
name: String, optional shortname for the archive
domains: Array of Strings, optional list of domain-names the dat should be made available at
}
Authentication
Clients should use the User accounts API to fetch a
session token from the service. This token should be included in the
Authentication
header using the Bearer
scheme.
Error responses
All error responses should respond with a JSON body which matches the following schema:
{
message: String
}
The content of message
will be displayed to the user. It should explain the
error and, if appropriate, give steps for solving the issue. Other fields may
be included in the response.
Rationale and alternatives
- The motivations and drawbacks of the PSA Service Document are discussed here. Without a description format, it becomes difficult to handle user authentication. We would probably need to use the HTTP Basic scheme and remove any mechanisms for registering new accounts.
Unresolved questions
- Does the registration flow need to be included in the spec?

In development and runtime systems alike, Prolog and C code may call each other to arbitrary depths.
Before calling a predicate from C you must look up the
predicate definition by module, name, and arity. The
function SP_predicate()
will return a pointer to this definition
or return NULL
if the predicate is not visible in the
module. This definition can be used in more than one call to
the same predicate.
The function SP_pred()
may be used as an alternative to the
above. The only difference is that the name and module
arguments are passed as Prolog atoms rather than strings,
and the module argument is mandatory. This saves the cost
of looking up the two arguments in the Prolog symbol table. This
cost dominates the cost of the operation.

ledctl
Section: Intel(R) Enclosure LED Control Application (8)Updated: February 2012
Index Return to Main Contents
NAME
ledctl - Intel(R) LED control application for a storage enclosures.SYNOPSIS
ledctl [OPTIONS] pattern_name=list_of_devices ...DESCRIPTION
The ledctl is user space application design to control LEDs associated with each slot in an enclosure or a drive bay. There are two types of system: 2-LEDs system (Activity LED, Status LED) and 3-LEDs system (Activity LED, Locate LED, Fail LED). User must have root privileges to use this application.The ledctl application uses SGPIO and SES-2 protocol to control LEDs. The program implements IBPI patterns of SFF-8489 specification for SGPIO. Please note some enclosures do not stick close to SFF-8489 specification. It might happen that enclosure processor will accept an IBPI pattern but it will blink the LEDs not according to SFF-8489 specification or it has limited number of patterns supported.
LED management (AHCI) and SAF-TE protocols are not supported.
The ledctl application has been verified to work with Intel(R) storage controllers (i.e. Intel(R) AHCI controller). The application might work with storage controllers of other vendors (especially SCSI/SAS controllers). However storage controllers of other vendors have not been tested.
The ledmon application has the highest priority when accessing LEDs then other programs. It means some patterns set by ledctl may have no effect (except Locate pattern).
The ledctl application is part of Intel(R) Enclosure LED Utilities.
Pattern Names
The ledctl application accepts the following names for pattern_name argument according to SFF-8489 specification.- locate
- Turns Locate LED associated with the given device(s) or empty slot(s) on.
- locate_off
- Only turns Locate LED off.
- normal
- Turns Status LED, Failure LED and Locate LED off.
- off
- Only turns Status LED and Failure LED off.
- ica or degraded
- Visualizes ``In a Critical Array'' pattern.
- rebuild or rebuild_p
- Visualizes ``Rebuild'' pattern.
- ifa or failed_array
- Visualizes ``In a Failed Array'' pattern.
- hotspare
- Visualizes ``Hotspare'' pattern.
- pfa
- Visualizes ``Predicted Failure Analysis'' pattern.
- failure or disk_failed
- Visualizes ``Failure'' pattern.
List of Devices
The application accepts a list of devices in two formats. The first format is a list with comma separated elements. The second format is a list in curly braces and elements are separated by space. See examples section bellow for details.A device is a path to file in /dev directory or in /sys/block directory. It may identify a block device, a RAID device or a container device. In case of RAID device or container device a state will be set for all block devices associated, respectively.
OPTIONS
- -c or --config=path
- Sets a path to local configuration file. If this option is specified the global configuration file and user configuration file has no effect.
- -l or --log=path
- Sets a path to local log file. If this option is specified the global log file /var/log/ledctl.log is not used.
- --quiet
- Turns off all messages send to "stdout" or "stderr" out. The messages will be still logged to local file and syslog facility.
- -h or --help
- Prints this text out and exits.
- -v or --version
- Displays version of ledctl and information about the license and exits.
FILES
- /var/log/ledctl.log
- Global log file, used by all instances of ledctl application. To force logging to user defined file use -l option switch.
- ~/.ledctl
- User configuration file, shared between ledmon and all ledctl application instances.
- /etc/ledcfg.conf
- Global configuration file, shared between ledmon and all ledctl application instances.
EXAMPLES
The following example illustrates how to locate a single block device.
ledctl locate=/dev/sda
The following example illustrates how to off Locate LED for the same block device.
ledctl locate_off=/dev/sda
The following example illustrates how to locate disks of a RAID device and how to set rebuild pattern for two block devices at the same time. This example uses both formats of device list.
ledctl locate=/dev/md127 rebuild={ /sys/block/sd[a-b] }
The following example illustrates how to off Status LED and Failure LED for the given device(s).
ledctl off={ /dev/sda /dev/sdb }
The following example illustrates how to locate a three block devices. This example uses first format of device list.
ledctl locate=/dev/sda,/dev/sdb,/dev/sdc

Vizag zoo gets Grant’s zebras, Marmosets
The animals were procured from Alipore Zoological Gardens: curator
by Staff ReporterThe visitors to Indira Gandhi Zoological Park (IGZP) will now get to see new species from the animal kingdom, as the zoo authorities got Grant’s zebras, water monitor lizard and others as part of animal exchange programme, on Thursday.
According to IGZP curator Yesoda Bai, a pair of Grant’s zebras, a pair of water monitor lizard, and a pair of Marmoset monkeys were received from the Alipore Zoological Gardens in Kolkata. “The animals were brought from Kolkata in a parcel van unit of Shalimar- Secunderabad Weekly Express and shifted safely to the zoo in the presence of officials from both the zoos,” said Ms. Yesoda Bai.
In exchange, she said, the IGZP sent two pairs of wild dogs, a pair of ring tailed lemur and a pair of grey pelicans to the Alipore zoo on November 18.
21-day quarantine
“The animals will be kept under observation during the quarantine period. They will be released to enclosures after being quarantined for 21 days,” added Ms. Yesoda Bai. The IGZP received a pair of Asiatic lions from Sakkarbaug Zoo at Junagarh as part of the animal exchange programme in August this year and in return, wild dogs were sent to the Sakkarbaugh Zoo.

What is Rails?
Ruby on Rails, or Rails, is a web application framework written in Ruby. Rails is a model-view-controller (MVC) framework, providing default structures for databases, a web service, and web pages.
MVC
In a default configuration, a model in the Ruby on Rails framework maps to a table in a database, and to a Ruby file. For example, a model class, User, will usually be defined in the file, 'user.rb', in the app/models directory, and linked to the table, 'users', in the database. While developers are free to ignore this convention and choose differing names for their models, files, and database table, this is not common practice and is usually discouraged in accordance with the "convention-over-configuration" philosophy.
A view in the default configuration of Rails is an erb file, which is evaluated and converted to HTML at run-time. Alternatively, many other templating systems can be used for views.
A controller is a server-side component of Rails that responds to external requests from the web server to the application, by determining which view file to render. The controller may also have to query one or more models directly for information and pass these on to the view. A controller may provide one or more actions. In Ruby on Rails, an action is typically a basic unit that describes how to respond to a specific external web-browser request. Also note that the controller/action will be accessible for external web requests only if a corresponding route is mapped to it. Rails encourages developers to use RESTful routes, which include actions such as: create, new, edit, update, destroy, show, and index. These mappings of incoming requests/routes to controller actions can be easily set up in the routes configuration file.
What makes Rails different?
Rails operates on three basic premises. It encourages programmers to use:
- convention over configuration (CoC),
- don't repeat yourself (DRY),
- and the active record pattern.
"Convention over configuration" means a developer is able to make use of commonly used conventions, without having to customize every aspect of a new application.
"Don't repeat yourself" means that information is located in a single, unambiguous place.
"Fat models, skinny controllers" is something I don't fully understand yet, but it is defined by most of the application logic should be placed within the model while leaving the controller as light as possible.

This year, I tried paragliding for the first time, moved after five years, paddleboarded in Amsterdam's canals, travelled to seven countries, and even went to a techno day festival without drugs or alcohol - all unexpected experiences! That might just be my excuse to publish a year roundup in February.
Manga
For the first time in my annual awards, I want to give a shout-out to manga. I've been a fan since I was a kid, but over the years we've grown apart. To avoid buying hundreds of volumes, I purchased a refurbished iPad Mini 4 (2015). Even though the system is slow, it's been great catching up on comics.
I binged read all 🏆 Blue Lock during the World Cup. I already forgot most of the characters but the shonen recipe works so well. Even when playing football in real life, I was scanning the field like in the manga.
I finally read the phenomenon Demon Slayer, it’s not original but a perfect embodiment of shonen. I’m still amazed that the author decided to not continue it despite the world sensation.
Navigating the legal comic app world can be tricky, but I read the nice recent Moon Deer and discovered the crazy MetaBaron series.
TV
I’m surprised by the number of TV shows I followed this year (and a lot of good ones!) Maybe because I’m less bothered to stop before the end if I don’t like it.
🏆 Parlement season 2 keeps up the feat of making the European parliament fun. I love to hear French, Italian, German and other languages in the same show. I felt even more in love with the characters.
Animation
Animated series were so great this year: Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Genndy Tartakovsky’s Primal and Lastman season 2
So many good quirky comedies
- Our Flag Means Death is the best thing Taika Waititi did in 2022,
- The AfterParty from my favourite Christopher Miller (LEGO, Jump Street, Into the Spider-Verse),
- Loot with Maya Rudolph,
- Avenue 5 season 2 (how did we get a second season?),
- Peacemaker from a surprisingly inspired James Gunn,
- And even The Pentaverate, with the return of Mike Myers at his best.
The downfall of Disney
2022 was a series fo facepalms for Disney (Marvel/Star Wars) TV productions: Moon Knight, Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Book of Boba Fett and the fracking joke of Zen - Grogu and Dust Bunnies by Ghibli.
Thankfully, Andor is technically well done and has good ideas, but it's too long to get started and is too inconsistent.
Silicon Valley startups docudrama
I have a perverse liking for dark comedies based on real life companies. It’s always baffling and infuriating. As the false hope of techno-solutionism fades, there are increasingly more series about it.
This year, I enjoyed The Dropout, about Theranos, and SuperPumped, about Uber.
I'm watching We Crashed and Billion dollar code so I will write something about this type of fiction maybe one day.
Music
L'Imperatrice was the first real concert after the pandemic, and the audience was on fire. I highly recommend checking out this French pop-disco band live.
For logistical reasons, I saw Phoenix twice and Metronomy three times this year. I love both of these bands, so I had a blast every time.
I would recommend their music videos too. I particularly liked Phoenix’s videos for their latest album and how they use them in their live shows. Check out Alpha Zulu, After Midnight and Tonight!
I really enjoyed Beach House at Best Kept Secret festival, and seeing The Strokes for the first time live was something. Sadly, it was a bit spoiled by the attitude of their frontman.
A big frustration was to not being able to see Leonie Pernet live. She was my discovery of the year, and her music accompanied me on my trips. But there is a nice live session from france.tv.
Trailers
- Fresh Trailer
This trailer does a good job keeping the twist a mystery while showcasing a great cast, good music, and a nice visual identity. And The film lives up to its promise.
- Barbie Teaser
Every time I’ve shown the trailer to people, they’ve gone from doubtful to curious about this weird project.
- Spider-Man: Across the SpiderVerse Trailer
I adored the first one, so I'm already sold on this one. However, I'm amazed to see they used a mother's speech in the trailer.
- Skate Story reveal trailer - made by kertgartner
- Death Stranding 2 (Working Title) TGA 2022 Teaser Trailer - made by you-know-who
It’s more of the same and less surprising than most of his trailers, but I’ll take it any day.
Film
I aimed to watch fewer movies in 2023 than in the previous year (139!), so I ended up watching only 76 films, but, surprisingly, including 40 released this year.
Mentions
- Gasper Noé came to Amsterdam to present Vortex, his film is very moving and I enjoyed the Q&A session as he is very chatty.
- The Batman, The Bad Guys and Nope have great, thrilling moments.
- Coupez! (Final Cut) is a clever and delightful meta-film from Michel Hazanavicius. Seems like it's the season for films exploring the medium with Babylon and The Fabelmans.
- Everything everywhere all at once was a lot of fun and I’m glad to see it getting a lot of praise, but I still found it too long.
Shocks
The two big shocks of my year were, once again, animated films (or almost).
Le Sommet des Dieux is a perfect adaptation of the manga (I’m reading it and the film is way less slow and depressing). It’s exhilarating and intense.
Much to my surprise, 🏆 Avatar: The Way of Water has been my favourite screening of the year.
In 3D, HFR, it’s a technological, gripping, tour de force, as well as a really fun adventure that takes you to another world. I was flabbergasted seeing the, unfortunately too few, gorgeous spaceship scenes, I would love full films set in space, without actors.
Even more interesting films in the rest of my top on SensCritique.
Video Game
Although the Wordle craze has died down, I still play its cinematic version nearly every day: Framed. About Wordle, I recommend a really nice interview of its creator in My Perfect Console.
I’m still not playing many games on their initial release, because of time and money.
Instead, I played two great games, from a few years ago, Control and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (Obi-Wan poorly copied a lot from it).
But to reward games released or updated in 2022, this is my personal weird top:
- 🏆 Marvel Snap
- Splatoon 3
- Halo Infinite & For Honor
- Sifu
- Destiny 2
In Memoriam
2022 was a very tough year for digital services I use daily and more widely the press, I wanted to mention them:
We said goodbye to Gamekult, the last good French video game news website, and more globally to video game journalism which has never been worse (Nibel, IGN, Giant Bomb, GameSpot, etc.)
We said goodbye to Tracks, Germano-French TV magazine about underground cultures, unceremoniously killed by Arte after 25 years.
We said goodbye to Figma, the great product fighting against Adobe, now bought by Adobe.
We said goodbye to Twitter, acquired by a mogul.

Basic queries in MySQL and MariaDB - ALL DISTROS, Getting Started, MySQL
MySQL and MariaDB are relational databases. These tools are used to handle large volumes of data for different kinds of application programs. Both tools use SQL query language to retrieve the information from different tables and databases. Both MySQL and MariaDB support Virtual Private Server (VPS) or cloud to manage your data.
In this article, you can use Ubuntu (or any other distros), MariaDB, and MySQL. MariaDB and MySQL can be used to query database with various filters or search criteria.
datatables
table by using the following query:
mysql
database for your queries, start with this command:
There is a semicolon after every command, which indicates that the engine query ends there.
The output of this query is similar to the following example:
Ubuntu will return only twenty-four results for a MySQL installation.
user
table, and to get an idea of which categories you can select from, use this command:
The values shown in the Field
column are headings for the user
table.
You can use the SELECT query to retrieve data for specific fields. The following query will return results for the three fields included in the SELECT
query. Separate fields by a comma.
You can use an asterisk (*
) as a wildcard to query all the information from a specified table.
You can apply a filter to the results that meet a specific criteria by using the where
keyword.
user
, password
, and host
, and then filter for the user named root.
user
, password
, and host
from the user
table, which has a value named localhost
for host
.
The Like
operator compares the value from the right side of the expression.
LIKE l%
.
"l"
.
and
or or
for equality comparison. The following query will match each record and return result with filter condition that matches the criteria, such as host starting from either l or 127.
In this article, we reviewed the queries that provide a basic understanding of how to retrieve data from databases. There are several other queries that were not covered in this article, but the list provided is a good start on how to retrieve information in MySQL and MariaDB.

{{ page.description }}
This article is an instalment in a short article series about profunctors. It assumes that you've read the introduction.
Previous articles in the overall article series on functors and similar abstractions discussed Reader as both a covariant functor, as well as a contravariant functor. As the profunctor introduction intimated, if you combine the properties of both co- and contravariance, you'll have a profunctor.
There's a wide selection of well-known functors and a smaller selection of contravariant functors. Of all those that I've covered so far, only one appears in both lists: Reader.
Consider, again, this IReader
interface:
public interface IReader<R, A> { A Run(R environment); }
When discussing IReader
as a covariant functor, we'd fix R
and let A
vary. When discussing the same interface as a contravariant functor, we'd fix A
and let R
vary. If you allow both to vary freely, you have a profunctor.
As the profunctor overview article asserted, you can implement ContraMap
and Select
with DiMap
, or you can implement DiMap
with ContraMap
and Select
. Since previous articles have supplied both Select
and ContraMap
for IReader
, it's a natural opportunity to see how to implement DiMap
:
public static IReader<R1, A1> DiMap<R, R1, A, A1>( this IReader<R, A> reader, Func<R1, R> contraSelector, Func<A, A1> coSelector) { return reader.ContraMap(contraSelector).Select(coSelector); }
You simply pass contraSelector
to ContraMap
and coSelector
to Select
, while chaining the two method calls. You can also flip the order in which you call these two functions - as long as they are both pure functions, it'll make no difference. You'll shortly see an example of flipping the order.
First, though, an example of using DiMap
. Imagine that you have this IReader
implementation:
public sealed class TotalSecondsReader : IReader<TimeSpan, double> { public double Run(TimeSpan environment) { return environment.TotalSeconds; } }
This class converts a TimeSpan
value into the total number of seconds represented by that duration. You can project this Reader in both directions using DiMap
:
[Fact] public void ReaderDiMapExample() { IReader<TimeSpan, double> reader = new TotalSecondsReader(); IReader<DateTime, bool> projection = reader.DiMap((DateTime dt) => dt.TimeOfDay, d => d % 2 == 0); Assert.True(projection.Run(new DateTime(3271, 12, 11, 2, 3, 4))); }
This example maps the Reader from TimeSpan
to DateTime
by mapping in the opposite direction: The lambda expression (DateTime dt) => dt.TimeOfDay
returns the time of day of a given DateTime
. This value is a TimeSpan
value representing the time passed since midnight on that date.
The example also checks whether or not a double
value is an even number.
When the resulting projection
is executed, the expected result is true
because the input date and time is first converted to a time of day (02:03:04) by the contraSelector
. Then TotalSecondsReader
converts that duration to the total number of seconds: 2 * 60 * 60 + 3 * 60 + 4 = 7,384. Finally, 7,384 is an even number, so the output is true
.
As already explained in the previous Reader articles, the IReader
interface is mostly a teaching device. In a language where you can treat functions as values, you don't need the interface. In C#, for example, the standard function delegates suffice. You can implement DiMap
directly on Func<A, B>
:
public static Func<R1, A1> DiMap<R, R1, A, A1>( this Func<R, A> func, Func<R1, R> contraSelector, Func<A, A1> coSelector) { return func.Select(coSelector).ContraMap(contraSelector); }
As promised, I've here flipped the order of methods in the chain, so that the implementation first calls Select
and then ContraMap
. This is entirely arbitrary, and I only did it to demonstrate that the order doesn't matter.
Here's another usage example:
[Fact] public void AreaOfDate() { Func<Version, int> func = v => v.Major + v.Minor * v.Build; Func<DateTime, double> projection = func.DiMap( (DateTime dt) => new Version(dt.Year, dt.Month, dt.Day), i => i * i * Math.PI); Assert.Equal( expected: 16662407.390443427686297314140028, actual: projection(new DateTime(1991, 12, 26))); }
This example starts with a nonsensical function that calculates a number from a Version
value. Using DiMap
the example then transforms func
into a function that produces a Version
from a DateTime
and also calculates the area of a circle with the radius i
.
Clearly, this isn't a useful piece of code - it only demonstrates how DiMap
works.
As stated in the profunctor introduction, I don't intend to make much of the profunctor laws, since they are only reiterations of the (covariant) functor and contravariant functor laws. Still, an example (not a proof) of the profunctor identity law may be in order:
[Fact] public void ProfunctorIdentityLaw() { Func<Guid, int> byteRange = g => g.ToByteArray().Max() - g.ToByteArray().Min(); T id<T>(T x) => x; Func<Guid, int> projected = byteRange.DiMap<Guid, Guid, int, int>(id, id); var guid = Guid.NewGuid(); Assert.Equal(byteRange(guid), projected(guid)); }
This example uses another silly function. Given any Guid
, the byteRange
function calculates the difference between the largest and smallest byte in the value. Projecting this function with the identity function id
along both axes should yield a function with the same behaviour. The assertion phase generates an arbitrary Guid
and verifies that both byteRange
and projected
produce the same resulting value.
As usual, I've adopted many of the concepts and ideas from Haskell. The notion of a profunctor is so exotic that, unlike the Contravariant type class, it's not (to my knowledge) part of the base library. Not that I've ever felt the need to import it, but if I did, I would probably use Data.Profunctor. This module defines a Profunctor
type class, of which a normal function (->)
is an instance. The type class defines the dimap
function.
We can replicate the above AreaOfDate
example using the Profunctor
type class, and the types and functions in the time library.
First, I'll implement func
like this:
func :: Num a => (a, a, a) -> a func (maj, min, bld) = maj + min * bld
Instead of using a Version
type (which I'm not sure exists in the 'standard' Haskell libraries) this function just uses a triple (three-tuple).
The projection is a bit more involved:
projection :: Day -> Double projection = dimap ((\(maj, min, bld) -> (fromInteger maj, min, bld)) . toGregorian) (\i -> toEnum (i * i) * pi) func
It basically does the same as the AreaOfDate
, but the lambda expressions look more scary because of all the brackets and conversions. Haskell isn't always more succinct than C#.
> projection $ fromGregorian 1991 12 26 1.6662407390443427e7
Notice that GHCi returns the result in scientific notation, so while the decimal separator seems to be oddly placed, the result is the same as in the C# example.
The Reader functor is not only a (covariant) functor and a contravariant functor. Since it's both, it's also a profunctor. And so what?
This knowledge doesn't seem immediately applicable, but shines an interesting light on the fabric of code. If you squint hard enough, most programming constructs look like functions, and functions are profunctors. I don't intent to go so far as to claim that 'everything is a profunctor', but the Reader profunctor is ubiquitous.
I'll return to this insight in a future article.
Next: Invariant functors.

Mail::SpamAssassin::Contrib::Plugin::IPFilter blacklists unsolicited bulk email senders using IPTables and a Redis based cache. It will blacklist the sender IP using the smallest network possible, up to /24, when UCE originates from multiple hosts on the same network. Depending on the diversity and frequency of spam received on a server, it may take a couple of days to become effective. Thereafter, the cache state will decay to prevent spammers from burning IP blocks.
Responsible, well-known email hosts (common_hosts) are given special treatment to avoid blacklisting their networks. UCE originating from common_hosts is blacklisted on a per sender basis using SpamAssassin's AWL. The plugin may be configured to email the blacklisted sender a warning for remediation. A sane IPTables setup and non-volatile Redis configuration are assumed. Additionally, an entry is created in /etc/cron.d/ for required maintenence.
IPV6 support is experimental. Future versions may include a database shared by nodes participating in a system similar to a decaying blockchain.
The following options may be used in site-wide (local.cf) configuration files to customize operation:
filter_name
The name of the chain that Mail::SpamAssassin::Contrib::Plugin::IPFilter will create to block spammers. This will also be used as the file name in /etc/cron.d/. [a-zA-Z0-9_.]
iptables_bin
The path to iptables binary on your system.
redis_host
The IPv4 address of your Redis server.
redis_port
The port that Redis is listening on.
redis_auth
The Redis password, if any.
redis_key_prefix
The prefix for Redis keys created and used by Mail::SpamAssassin::Contrib::Plugin::IPFilter. ^[a-zA-Z0-9_.]$
average_score_for_rule
The average spam score for a host required to trigger a rule after trigger_messages.
cache_decay_days
After how long will entries in the cache decay, assuming no spam messages are seen. Note that the cache will decay according to: cumulative_spam_score_for_host * exp(-3*lastspam_delta/cache_decay_secs)
expire_rule_seconds
After how long will a block rule expire.
expires_multiplier_penalty
A factor used to penalize hosts with longer rule expiration based on the spam of score of the message resulting in a rule, relative to the average spam score required to set the rule.
seconds_to_decay_penalty
A frequency indicator used to tune penalization for a given host based on how many spam messages were seen for that host over a time period. PF = exp((-1/10 * lastspam_delta/seconds_to_decay_penalty))
trigger_score
The score for which Mail::SpamAssassin::Contrib::Plugin::IPFilter will process a spam message. This should be greater than the SpamAssassin required_score.
trigger_messages
The minimum number of spam messages from a given host before a rule is triggered.
trigger_sensitivity
A quantity indicator used to tune penalization for a given host based on how many spam messages were seen for that host. PF = exp(-3*trigger_sensitivity/spamhits)
common_hosts
Hosts which should not be blacklisted via IPTables rule, and fall back to SpamAssassin blacklist.
admin_email
The email address to send blacklist warnings from. If left unconfigured, no warnings will be sent.
admin_message
The warning message that will be sent. Paramaters $user, $domain, $ip, $email, $recipient and $admin may be used for templatization.
whitelist
Any email address or ip address to whitelist. Email addresses may be specified as<EMAIL_ADDRESS>or just @example.com to match the whole domain, and IPs may be specified as <IP_ADDRESS> or just 1.2.3. to match the class C address space.

Planet Sick-Boy: http://www.sick-boy.com "We Put the SIN in Cinema"
© Copyright 2001 Planet Sick-Boy. All Rights Reserved.
In 1997, conductor Zubin Mehta hired filmmaker Zhang Yimou (The Road Home) to direct a lavish production of Giacomo Puccini's opera Turandot set in Florence, Italy. Mehta knew Zhang had no experience with opera but decided he'd be able to create a more faithful version of the story, which takes place in the Forbidden City of Beijing and in other productions usually resembles the interior of a gaudy Chinese restaurant.
Turandot was a big hit in Italy, and somewhere along the way Mehta and Zhang decided to take a stab at moving the production to the actual Forbidden City. The documentary film The Turandot Project shows the trials and tribulations encountered en route to the opera's opening night in a country that has often banned Zhang's films for being too politically subversive. In other words, this is not another Blair Witch spoof.
Puccini's opera, which was unfinished at the time of his death, is set in the Ming Dynasty and focuses on a princess who makes her eager suitors answer three riddles. If each isn't correctly solved, the man is killed. It's a precarious situation to be in.just like the limb Zhang and Mehta find themselves dangling from throughout the production.
There are the obvious things that you might expect to go wrong, like the melding of Italian and Chinese crew and performers (there are translators everywhere). The two cultures meet, but hardly ever clash, except one memorable battle between Zhang and an Italian lighting designer. The intricate costumes, which number in the thousands, needed a lot of last-minute adjustments. And since the Forbidden City is outside, a booming thunderstorm can't be ruled out.
But Allan Miller's (Small Wonders) documentary is still plenty interesting. I can't decide whether my favorite part was when a group of actual Chinese soldiers were cast in the play but expressly forbidden from looking at any of the ballerinas, or when the performing arts director explains how she's sure she'll eventually end up with a lengthy prison sentence because of her involvement in the production. Oh, the good times they had.
If you're an opera fan and are familiar with Turandot, then you probably should check this one out. If you'd rather be drawn and quartered than even walk past a building where an opera once took place, you probably should sit this one out.

Yes, unless I'm not remembering things right, the "automatic" version check is not all that automatic right now. It was an oversight on my part that the last release went out with the "Check now" button hooked up, but the daily/weekly/monthly pop-up has no effect.

Greg Hurrell
I believe this is now fixed in the latest released version (0.4), with some caveats.
The automatic version checking code is now complete and in place. After releasing 0.4 I discovered a silly omission on my part that means that the automatic version check timer isn't started when you first launch the app, but only when you touch the automatic version checking preferences. I've already corrected this oversight in the current development build.
So it's now "working" in the current release (0.4), as long as you tickle the preferences after launching.
And it will work properly without the tickling in the next version (not yet sure whether I'll be numbering it 0.4.1 or 0.5; depends on the number of changes). I mean to release the next version fairly soon.
Unfortunately won't be able to mark this as confirmed fixed until the version *after* 0.4.1 or 0.5, because you'll need to install 0.4.1 or 0.5 first, and only when the *next* version comes out will be know for sure that the problem has been addressed.
In the meantime, adding the "fixed-in-prerelease" keyword.

If you wish to confirm that this bug is fixed you can try out one of the Synergy Advance nightly builds. As noted in the nightlies page, these are automated builds which represent a snapshot of the current development status. They are not tested and may have issues of their own; the latest official release (0.4) is still the one that's recommended for daily use.

Concretely, I believe this issues is fixed in revision 429 (link follows), or any later revision:

Now that 0.5b is out removing "fixed-in-prerelease" keyword and marking as FIXED/CLOSED.
