DIG is a domain-specific indexing, search and analysis system. The DIG system harnesses state-of-the-art open source software combined with an open architecture and flexible set of APIs to facilitate the integration of a variety of extraction and analysis tools.
DIG builds on rich models of a domain that support fine-grained data collection, organization, and analysis. DIG builds a graph of the entities and relationships within a domain using scalable extraction and linking technologies. DIG also includes a faceted content search interface for users to query DIGs and visualize information on maps, timelines, and tables.
DIG is designed to be scalable by building on open-source cloud-based infrastructure (i.e., HDFS, Hadoop, Elastic Search, etc.), supports a diversity of source types, and is rapidly re-targetable to new domains of interest.
Popular Science published a very interesting article THE MAN WHO LIT THE DARK WEB: Data-mining tools are helping cops bust open online human trafficking that describes the history of the DARPA MEMEX program that funds our DIG project, and provides details on how DIG is being used by law enforcement agencies to combat human trafficking.

Raging Cyprus boss slaughters referee as he vents his spleen over Scotland's 'long ball' merchants
The manager was furious at ref Harald Lechner for failing to spot an early strike that looked to have crossed the line
by Michael Gannon, https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/authors/michael-gannon/Seething Cyprus coach Ran Ben Shimon slammed Scotland as long ball merchants who didn’t deserve to nick a win in Nicosia.
The manager was furious at ref Harald Lechner for failing to spot an early strike that looked to have crossed the line. But Shimon also took a pop at Steve Clarke ’s men as he insisted his side were the only team trying to play football.
He said: “The ball was in the corner for six minutes in the latter stages. We had prepared for long balls, but not that amount of long balls. I have respect for opponents but the better team lost.
“It was a close match and could have gone either way. The team that tried to play football lost this game.”
Shimon saved rage for the ref though and he believed the phantom goal played a major part in the Euro 2020 defeat.
He said: “I never speak about referees but it was a poor performance.
“It was the decisive moment in the game. To lead after six minutes would have been crucial. It was half a metre inside.
“I am proud of my players, there were so many good things and we will continue on.”

Ringgit opens slightly lower against US dollar
KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 25 — The ringgit opened slightly lower against the US dollar today as traders remained on the sidelines waiting for more positive signs before the new tariffs by the United States (US) on Chinese imports kicks off on December 15, 2019.
At 9.03am, the ringgit was quoted at 4.1750/1780 against the greenback from Friday’s close of 4.1700/1750.
AxiTrader chief Asia market strategist Stephen Innes said given the heightened level of uncertainty and possible delay in US-China trade deal, traders had been more inclined to pare back bullish bets and turn more neutral on Asean currency risk.
“Because of these elevated risks in general, global investors may be more prone to hedge Asean currency, including the ringgit’s exposure into 2020, suggesting a bid on dip mentality will prevail in the absence of any positive trade development,” he said in a note today.
Innes expected the local note’s performance this week could be critical in shaping views into 2020, as the closer the market entering December, coupled with no face-to-face date or venue had been selected for the US-China trade talks, the higher the probability is for local risk assets to wobble and the ringgit to weaken.
At the opening bell, the ringgit opened mostly higher versus a basket of major currencies.
It went up against the yen to 3.8373/8411 from last Friday’s close of 3.8412/8469, appreciated against the pound to 5.3653/3696 from 5.3672/3753 and advanced versus the euro to 4.6013/6054 from 4.6116/6188.
The local note was marginally weakened vis-a-vis against the Singapore dollar at 3.0597/0624 from 3.0590/0638 on last Friday. — Bernama

by Stephan Jaensch -<EMAIL_ADDRESS>backend developer for the Biz Owner App
worked on the main Yelp app backend before that
Python user since 2008
did a lot of Django work in the past
Code deployments (“pushes”) are done several times a day
Run by a pushmaster, an engineer with production system access
People join a push (“pickme”)
Automatic checks make sure there are no merge conflicts
deployment branch is deployed to a stage system
after verification, it’s sent to production
~2 hour process, with no upper bound
you can run only so many pushes a day
so let’s build services!
each service is developed and deployed independently
services are usually small, covering only one aspect or set of features
easy to parallelize thanks to async HTTP requests, so it might even speed your code up
http://bit.do/fowler-serviceconsistency is really hard
no clear dependency / usage graph
need to maintain interfaces “forever”
testing one huge, mostly self-contained codebase is easy; how do you test services?
unittests
...are great, but not enough
a lot of breakage if interfaces change
our solution: acceptance tests
as close to production as possible without using dedicated stage environments
spin up all components you need, using production code
done with docker-compose
heavyweight: take time to run, setup grows with the number of services you call
configs:
build: acceptance/configs/
volumes:
- "./logs:/tmp/logs"
bizapp:

YELP_USE_GEARMAND: True
originally we used tornado; didn’t work well
now: Pyramid, uWSGI, SQLAlchemy
HTTP and JSON for communication
Swagger to specify the API and do the inter-service calls
does request and response validation
data structure and basic type checking of the individual fields
works dynamically by reading a service’s spec, no need to generate and update client libraries
a special snowflake since it’s one of the very few services reachable from the outside
not constrained to one area (like business media)
no local datastore
oftentimes just a proxy, calling yelp-main and other services
RESTy model
one resource per endpoint
do multiple calls (to different endpoints) to fetch related resources
get concurrency for free (if using async calls)
some say a lot of simple calls are easier to scale than fewer complicated ones
one endpoint per client (app) page
for write (POST) endpoints, also send the client the data it needs to display the follow-up page
aggregate and enrich data we retrieve from yelp-main and other services
a high-level interface that translates to our low-level service APIs
mobile apps have releases
in our case, they’re synchronized, both in time and in features
iOS apps need to be reviewed; might take 10+ days
you probably also want to test before releasing
meaning: API needs to be done sooner than client implementation
way sooner than release date
you can’t upgrade apps whenever you upgrade the server
actually, some users never upgrade
so your APIs need to be backwards compatible - forever
maintaining multiple versions can become costly
adding fields is backwards compatible
number of requests, server errors, task queues, sent push notifications…

This bit of work came along immediately after I finished work on Avelino. There are a few Bubbles Launderettes local to me, but the store this site was made for is the Bubbles Launderette of Rawdon (the owners of which used to own all the others until they were sold off). This was my second paid job as a freelance website developer, so I took it without even thinking about it, anything to grow the old portfolio after all. I actually struggled on this one a bit, mostly due to being uncertain about which direction to take the design in, but I got there in the end.
-Return to Portfolio-
This time, the client already had a logo. However, they didn’t have it as a digital file for me to use due to the logo being around on the storefront for so long I assume, it must of been commissioned once when the store first opened and then forgotten about. Because of that, I had to recreate the logo from scratch using an image of the storefront as a reference. This site features a grid-type layout of sorts, so I inserted the provided images and chose muted colours to display as a background for the text. The site has a very neutral feel to it due to the colour choices, and features a lot of clean lines. A full width Google Maps map is featured above the footer.
I knew this one would be a challenge before I took it on, that’s one of the main reasons I was so eager to jump on it. The sites I usually create are usally personal porjects and similar, but having to do something for an already established business was a daunting challenge, both in terms of work load, professionalism, and customer expectations.
This was requested by the owners of the Bubbles Launderette in Rawdon, since they’d never had an online presence of any kind, aside from the odd Yelp or Google review. Because of this, they were keen to have a site to which they could refer potential customers to. I was told it would help with all the people who ring up asking about machine prices, the various service costs, and otehr trvial things better suited online. Now they can just point them to this site, and everyone’s happy.

First, I'm really sorry to be late. I was in the stress. and now i an working in the hard to improve this application. So keep in close eye to me. Thank you.
Hi my friends. I'm really hard work to update this application. While few months, I've got messages from you that wanted the app to improve.
These are what I'm working on. 1. Auto-play the video format in Detail View. 2. Improve performance. 3. Applied few design. 4. Compressed the app size.
Thank you for using the app. I wish that i would complete this things soon.
Version 1.7.8
- bug fixed that the bottom bar was not shown. - Step 1
You can see the following shot after you login this app.
The yellow triangle on right side bottom of thumbnail means that supports video.
This is new function since 1.7.5 version.
- Step 2
You can see the dialog menu when you are pressing thumbnail image what you want to do. It supports 5 functions as you see.
- Step 2-1
This is Dialog view that you can write the comment.
- Step 3
This is Detail View when you click thumbnail of main view.
- Step 4
This is profile view. When you click on user name on top of detail view, you can see it.
Thank you.


Inspired by this article I thought I would try to build my own graphing site for data based in Canada. To do this I parsed data Publicly Available from the government of ontario in conjunction with Chart.js to make an easilly accessible graph to show popularity of names between the years of 1917 and 2010. (This is the data available)
There are a lot of interesting trends that appear when looking at names over time. One particularly interesting thing I like to look at is names compared to movies. For example, take a look at the results for the name "Carrie", and the check out this IMDB page.

Each view maintains its own set of animations. Two default animations are created and required by all views:
OnActivate
This animation is automatically played whenever a view becomes active. At the very minimum, the OnActivate animation creates a single keyframe for each and every control. In this way, when a View is activated, all controls are animated and places into a known starting state.
You can add keyframes to the OnActivate if needed, but it is not required. The OnActivate animation cannot be renamed or removed, and individual controls cannot be removed from the animation.
OnDeactivate
The OnDeactivate animation is automatically played whenever a view becomes inactive. It contains, by default, no animation channels or keyframes and it is not required that you animate any controls in OnDeactivate. It serves mostly as a convenience if your view has a generic outro animation that should get played whenever it is deactivated.
Timeline View:
Once you have created controls within a view, you can start animating them. This is done primarily through the Timeline View.
The Timeline displays a single animation at a time, and all of the animated controls within that animation. Each control is animated with a set of animation keyframes. In the above screenshot, the animated controls are listed to the left and their keyframes are indicated in the rows to the right. Each blue box represents a keyframe.
Each animated control is required to have a starting keyframe at frame 1 of the animation.
It is important to note that an animation will only animate the controls within that animation - all others will be ignored.
NOTE: The Timeline View will only be active when a view is currently being edited.
Creating an animation:
Animating a control:
Looping an animation:
An animation can loop a single series of frames. During playback, the loop will be repeated indefinitely until the loop is keyed off, ie exited. The animation will then play to its logical end frame and finish.
To loop frames:
Similarly, to clear a loop select the looped frames, right-click and select "Clear Loop"
Previewing an animation:
Once a control has been animated, there are two ways to preview the resulting animation: Playing it back in the Otter Editor or dragging the current frame indicator back and forth.
Using animation playback:

Bugfix for nsIStringBundle 2007/08/08
XULRunner provides a nice way to localize apps through the use of custom document-type declarations (*.dtd
files) and *.properties
files used from within your Javascripts (more info on ). The markup below brings one of these "string bundles" into the app:
<stringbundleset> <stringbundle id="locale" src="chrome://app/locale/main.properties" /> </stringbundleset>
Then just one line of Javascript brings it from the XUL world into the Javascript world. The string bundle element itself contains methods getString
and getFormattedString
that will bring localized content into your Javascript.
var locale = document.getElementById('locale'); locale.getString('foo'); locale.getFormattedString('bar', [asdf, qwerty]);
But getFormattedString
doesn't work right in XULRunner 1.9a7. It substitutes only the first character of the string (in my experience). Here is a transparent Javascript-only fix:
var locale = document.getElementById('locale'); // Now hack locale.getFormattedString to work like it should locale.getFormattedString = function(id, args) { var str = locale.getString(id); var ii = args.length; for (var i = 0; i < ii; ++i) { var regex = new RegExp('%' + (i + 1) + '\$[ds]'); str = str.replace(regex, args[i]); } return str; };
This properly takes care of the replacement of each element in args
. In the example above where the variables asdf
and qwerty
were passed, the contents of asdf
would replace %1$s
and the contents of qwerty
would replace %2$s
. Note the numbering of the placeholders differing from normal array indexing. Also note that for semantic reasons, a d
can be used in the placeholder to denote a number, but no special case is necessary in Javascript. Happy localizing!
Comments (3)
Searched for a fix with a problem I had with getFormattedString and this post. Thanks for the idea. If I may, I would suggesst adding the 'g' and 'i' flags in your instantiation of the RegExp as well as escaping the '$' sign:
var locale = document.getElementById('locale');
// Now hack locale.getFormattedString to work like it should locale.getFormattedString = function(id, args) { var str = locale.getString(id); var ii = args.length; for (var i = 0; i

.. comment body appears to have been cut, here's the line in question : var regex = new RegExp('%' + (i + 1) + '\\$[ds]','gi');
— Bruno — 2007/10/12 10:08 am
This bug fix isn't necessary if you use %S (uppercase S) in the localized string. This is documented in http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/XUL:Method:getFormattedString

Duffuor denies bankrolling NPP, lobbying for Mahama running mate slot
Former Governor of the Bank of Ghana and Finance Minister Dr. Kwabena Duffuor has rejected claims suggesting he was part of financiers of the 2016 election campaign of the incumbent NPP.
A news story published by mynewsgh.com alleged that the founder of defunct Unibank had been dropped from the candidates for running mates for NDC flagbearer John Mahama because he had bankrolled the election campaign of their rival party (NPP).
But in a letter copied to www.ghanaweb.com, Dr. Duffuor described the reports as false and a figment of the writer’s imagination.
Reacting to a different story headlined “Mahama’s running mate: Rawlings kicks against Kwesi Ahwoi as Duffuor begs to be considered” carried out by the same online portal, he stressed that he had not contacted Mr Rawlings or Mahama in that regard.
Dr. Duffuor also stated that he has not had any discussions with any other parties concerning the choice of a running mate for Mr. John Mahama.
The race for the selection of a running mate for the NDC remains widely opened and heavily contested although no formal communication has been made concerning the shortlisted candidates.
Several names of prominent members of the party are being speculated.
Some of the names which have popped up include Dr. Johnson Asiama, Dr. Kwesi Botchwey, Hannah Tetteh, Marrietta Brew Appiah Oppong, Prof. Jane Naana O. Agyemang, the youngest of the Ahwoi brothers among others.
Others including the incumbent party General Secretary Johnson Asiedu Nketia has not shied away from his intentions.

Samoa measles outbreak kills 20, mostly children
The island state of just 200,000, located south of the equator and half way between Hawaii and New Zealand, declared a measles epidemic late in October after the first deaths.
by ReutersDeaths related to measles, mostly among small children, have more than tripled to 20 in the past week on the Pacific island of Samoa, the government has said eight days after declaring a state of emergency over the outbreak.
The island state of just 200,000, located south of the equator and half way between Hawaii and New Zealand, declared a measles epidemic late in October after the first deaths.
The government has identified 1,644 suspected cases of measles, more than doubling over the past week, with deaths rising to 20 from six, it said on Friday. Children younger than five accounted for all but one of the deaths.
Staff of U.N. agency UNICEF have delivered 110,500 doses of measles containing vaccines this week as they fanned out across Samoa to boost its mandatory immunisation effort, the agency said in a statement.
It has also worked with governments of other tiny Pacific nations to run immunisation campaigns and develop preparedness plans to combat a regional outbreak, it added.
Australia is sending a specialist team of doctors, nurses and public health experts to Samoa, along with equipment and supplies, the foreign ministry said in a statement.

What is Scrum?
A framework for productively and creatively developing and sustaining complex products with the highest possible value
Is Scrum simple to implement?
No
How is scrum empirical?
It employs an iterative, incremental approach to optimize predictability and control risk.
Which are the three pillars of empirical process control?
TIA: Transparency, Inspection, Adaption.
How is transparancy guaranteed within scrum?
- Common language about the process
- Clear Definition of Done.
How is inspection implemented within scrum?
Frequent but not too frequent inspections of scrum artifacts and progress towared a Sprint Goal to detect undesirable variances.
How is adaption implemented within scrum?
As soon as an undesirable variance is detected, the process or material being processed is adapted to minimize further deviation.
Who are the members of a scrum team?
Product Owner, Scrum Master, Development Team
What are two important characteristics of Scrum Teams?
Self-organized, cross-functional.
How is a Scrum Team self-organized?
Not being directed by others
They choose how best to accomplish their work.
What is the value of being cross-functional as a Scrum Team?
Not depending on others to accomplish the work
What is the output of a Scrum Team?
Iteratively and incrementally delivered products that are 'Done' (a useful and working product)
What is the value of iteratively and incrementally deliveries?
Frequent inspection possibilities
What is the main responsibility of the Product Owner?
Maximizing the value of the product and providing work for the Development Team.
What is his main instrument to this purpose?
The Product Backlog.
Is the Product Backlog a shared responsibility?
No. He is the sole person responsible.
What are characteristics of items on the Product Backlog?
- transparant, clearly expressed and visible for all
- Ordered to best achieve goals
- Optimized to provide value
May the P.O. delegate his responsibilities regarding the Product Backlog?
Yes. However, the P.O. remains accountable.
What is an important requirement for the P.O. to succeed
The organization should respect his decisions.
Who will tell the team how to turn Product Backlog items into increments of releasable functionality?
No one except the Development Team itself.
What roles / titles does scrum recognize within a Development Team?
Only one: 'Developer' for all team members. There are no sub-teams or fixed roles.
Can a person have an area of focus or a specialized skill within a scrum team?
Of course. But accountability belongs to the Development Team as a whole.
What is the ideal size of the Development Team?
3 <= teamsize <= 9. P.O. and S.M. are included in this count when active in the Dev Team.
What are the main responsibilities of the Scrum Master?
- Ensuring that Scrum is understood and enacted.
- Optimizes interactions with those outside the Scrum team
How does the Scrum Master help the Product Owner?
- Finding techniques for effective Product Backlog management
- Helping the Scrum team to clarify PBI's

What events does Scrum define?
The Sprint, Sprint Planning, Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, Sprint Retrospective.
What is an important characteristic of Scrum events?
Events are timeboxed
Can these events be skipped when the Scrum Team doesn't deem the events necessary?
No. Transparency will be reduced and an important opportunity to inspect and adapt is lost.
What is the maximum timebox of a sprint?
A month
What is the output of a sprint
A potentially shippable product increment
What does a sprint contain and consist of?
All other Events and the development work.
What is fixed within the sprint
The sprint goal, the quality goals
What is flexible within the sprint
The scope and the plan to reach the goal
When can a sprint be cancelled and by who?

[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> I couldn't even imagine yet what level of applications a combination of Open AI + blockchains would make(edited)
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> I'd really need to read and learn a bit of AI specific applications which could be useful for such use case to get better understanding and then can probably at least be able to express them properly.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> because you have solved the in between puzzle of making blockchains without requiring special servers and knowledge to create a secure and scalable independent blockchains that's few steps forward in creating some interesting applications. and that's super interesting progress! (edited)
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> thanks for this chat. It also clears a bit more better how Verus and Komodo fit together like lego pieces with each other in this whole picture.
It is really amazing to understand that
[dscrdvrsc] <miketout> I've done some work in AI, both machine learning on images, text, voice, etc. and reinforcement learning, so creating active, real time learning decision makers. Being able to leverage blockchain data with AI is definitely something I believe we should do after the fundamentals are solidly in place.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> Can you also share some more resources to better understand MMR?
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> that newsletter post was not as much digestible
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> hmm... a home security system can be done with your PBaaS for damn sure with this AI learning capabilities
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> recently learned an article on how to make a face recognition setup. but that can be linked to authentic proof of faces verified by blockchain
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> there I understood a lil use case more
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> you making me more bullish on your tech Mike
[dscrdvrsc] <miketout> Here's a generic description:
https://github.com/opentimestamps/opentimestamps-server/blob/master/doc/merkle-mountain-range.md
We actually use more advanced MMRs than is written up anywhere, in the sense that we are including proof of work and stake in the MMR tree for the chain. There is a research paper that described using just work in an MMR on a proof of work chain to make an ultra-light client that can validate transactions. Their use of MMRs is closer to Verus: https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/226.pdf
Finally, the implementation is a scalable system that uses chunked memory allocation, templated node types that can include stake, work, power, nothing, or other properties. It also includes a virtual overlay on the active blockchain array (no space used for lowest layer, saving half space with nodes realized when needed). It's quite flexible and could be adapted to other blockchains as well.
OpenTimestamps server component. Contribute to opentimestamps/opentimestamps-server development by creating an account on GitHub.
[dscrdvrsc] <miketout> Of course, with the MMRs that Verus has, it is fully prepared to have those ultra-light validating clients made for it as well.(edited)
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> these ultra-light validating clients would be electrum servers or would be directly talking to the existing p2p network nodes on Verus Network?
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> if the later, then it would be super amazing! no dependency on electrum servers and more better decentralised lite clients!
[dscrdvrsc] <miketout> you could do the latter, but it would take some protocol changes
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> bookmarked those links. I'm up past my bed time, would def read them. very very interesting stuff. tonight was best productive night for me!
[dscrdvrsc] <miketout> glad to hear goodnight
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> thanks for taking some time to chat with me Mike! night
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> I enjoyed your conversation. Sleep well!

[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Me too! Great resources too!
GatewayBOT26-Jun-19 11:55 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> The AI talk and IoT stuff really got me. Aside from some iota uses those broad usages didn't even cross my mind for blockchain. That really is exciting! I'm picturing an android-esque mobile OS that is sort of like linux's open source in that it can learn preferences and change democratically but based on blockchain governance instead. Something like that. But man, yeah, video and audio distributed via blockchain is seems like a perfect fit both for copyright and also for more control to the artists.
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Man it could open up all sorts of new collaborative efforts for open source development. You could make an open source video game company on PBaaS with developers from around the world and who otherwise would have never met!
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Could change basic company structure as we know it. They'll have to start up a new type of business course in colleges!
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> PBaaS 101
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Ok maybe I'm getting a little carried away.. But you guys got me going!

[dscrdvrsc] <AkiraX> hi all
[dscrdvrsc] <AkiraX> anyone here?
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 12:30 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <Roxin> @AkiraX here..on community suport
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 01:02 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <Cypher> just a heads up please mine on a few different pools
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> I agree. The hashrate should be distributed more evenly, but we cannot force people to do what we want. That's not the spirit of this community.
That being said: Because of the 50% PoW / 50% PoS consensus (Proof of Power or in short: PoP) they cannot take control of the network.
[dscrdvrsc] <Cypher> naturally however it is important to make people aware a lot of miners dont check switching to smaller pools can mean bigger payouts but a little less regularly
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> @Cypher You missed a pay-streak on the pool, but your first share is maturing....
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 01:28 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <Cypher> Haha not thinking personally just decentralisation xD
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> Forgot to shave this morning???
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> Looks great!... According to UPS my stuff is at customs
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Thanks @Oink. Eh, it's Thursday, I'm lazy hah and yes that is the state house in the background.. take whatever meaning you will from that.
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> Political statement!!!
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> Mission Impossible
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> If you don't try, you will certainly never succeed(edited)
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> was just looking at the pic and the comment.... reminded me of "Ethan Hunt" for some reason
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> Ohno!!! now his beard will blow up after that message
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Haha oh how I wish. Thank you @grewalsatinder, you just made my day
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> hehe
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> On a mission to bring Verus to the masses! Mission becoming-possibler by the day!
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> also read the other GitHub MMR post by Peter Todd. helped a bit.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> would like to understand how Merkle Root of Merkle Roots of Merkle Roots (MoMoM) might be different to Merkle Mountain Ranges (MMR).(edited)
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> will read next that pdf link of FlyClient
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> Peter Todd came up with MMR idea as I understand.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> had skimmed through that link and next messages related to it. Guess I will need to re-read it again to try grasp it better.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> I get a fair bit idea how things are going with MMR after reading that Grin's MMR description, it was helpful.(edited)
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 07:30 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Yeah I only have a general grasp and I saved your links and the ones Mike posed yesterday to read up on. Thanks for sharing. It's not something you just find laying around the internet.
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 07:46 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> true
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> to be honest mathematics is my weakest skill, and only I know how I cleared my Masters with all those probability maths.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> reading that lists link again from the start, and after reading that Grin's MMR, it is making a bit more sense now
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> haven't started that FlyClient pdf to read yet(edited)
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Haha yeah same here with math unfortunately.
The stuff you said yesterday was really eye opening tbh and presented in a really thought provoking way.
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Talking about Verus as a tool for people to get things done is really big because blockchain to many is just a game to be played but for developers to have all the work done in an orderly environment so that they can actually implement blockchain usages is a huge big first step
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> A first step toward devices that use blockchain's unique capabilities to their full potential and completely discrete so that most ordinary people will never even recognize the tech behind the tools they use
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Seems like there would be good reason for a lot of different developers and users to have a safe environment to build on or experiment even
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> I just get really excited to think about the possibilities. Really looking forward to all the different and unique use cases and how things might evolve.
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 08:09 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> agree It is very exciting.
The real adventure is the other possible solutions offered by the industry researches around.
You can have a look at them, try to understand them, and it is possible that may be one of them could end up in any of your favourite project.
As I understand MMR is a solution to handle blockchain bloating, and keeping the blockchain UTXO size small or manageable, like some level help in scaling as well as to make the light wallet clients better
and securer as compare to existing protocol and data structures. I'd definitely need correction on this part if anything needs correction on this understanding.(edited)
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> And since UTXO is a part of Transparent public transactions only, this scaling part applies to the 1 part of Veruscoin.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> For the Private transactions there is one more project in industry which is very interesting, Coda Project.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> Have a look around, you'll find it super interesting.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> I just hope that one day Coda could be implemented or at least be available as either a smart chain or PBaaS chain in future
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> If I get that right, that will be extreme scaling solution to create very very small size/lightweight blockchains.(edited)
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 08:23 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Thanks, I will take a look!
Another cool thing about the MMRs if i understand them correctly, along with reducing blockchain bloat, it also uses only those small fractions of each to make up a whole, but in doing this all chains are verifiably connected in the blocks along with being much smaller in size. Such a cool idea and amazing the amount of information that can be efficiently organized in this fashion.
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> I'm actually hoping to see a mass exodus of serious minded projects that truly care about getting their vision accomplished. Who knows, the big centralized BaaS solutions may find that if they can't beat us, join us..
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> it is getting harder to beat this developing tech actually.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> I still guess the hyped projects like ETH/Polkadot/Cosmos etc will still get major developer share from industry, but the ones who will either be looking for alternative and better freedom choice solutions in industry might end up in projects like KMD and VRSC, or the ones who will get frustrated with the shortcomings of those mentioned platforms.
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> this is very new industry, and people will learn by experiencing only, and that will take them some time to end up here.
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Also if it is easier to use and all the hard work is done developers may see it as the most appealing choice
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> the problem with our low budget and technical superior projects is the level of help from the communities those big bois gets which our small projects aren't getting as much as compared to those big ones.
but whatever little or more we are getting is superbly amazing!
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> It is all very new and just the past year has been a rollercoaster. I hope someone is documenting everything haha cause itd be a heck of a story
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> I was thinking the same actually
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> documentary
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> There are some gems if you know where to look but hopefully not for long
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Right?!
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> So much drama
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> I also need to read on project BLUR
[dscrdvrsc] <grewalsatinder> have tons of material to read and update myself. been long away from updating with industry and even in-ecosystem projects.
[dscrdvrsc] <Godballz> Man, tell me about it. I ran outta tabs, doesn't show numbers any more, just a smiley face
GatewayBOT27-Jun-19 08:42 PM
[dscrdvrsc] <Oink> Should we archive all Discord Channels for posterity?

MY GIANT (1998) A film review by Liz Rizzo Copyright 1998 by Liz Rizzo
Rating: * 1/2 out of ****
Starring Billy Crystal, Zane Carney, Walt G. Ludwig, Gheorghe Muresan, Kathleen Quinlan and Steven Seagal (as himself) Written by David Seltzer Directed by Michael Lehmann Produced by Castle Rock Entertainment/Columbia Pictures Corporation [US] and distributed by Columbia Pictures[US]/Sony Pictures Entertainment [US]
My Giant begins with a monologue that's more funny than not and a distinctive `Princess Bride,' medieval fairy-tale-in-the-‘90s feel. I was pleasantly surprised how sharp the comedy was, with very funny scenes occurring on a movie set in Romania where talent agent Sammy (Billy Crystal) is visiting a client and in the monastery where Sammy ends up after being mysteriously saved when he accidentally plunges his car into a stream. And when Sammy meets Max, his giant, mysterious savior played by Gheorghe Muresan, there is magic in the air; albeit it a bit goofy, I loved every minute of it. The film, of course, plays on the size difference between the two, and at times you would almost swear it must be special effects.  I also liked Jere Burns' (from TV's `Something So Right') performance as the director of the film in Romania.
At this point, the primary flaw in the film is that Gheorghe Muresan is incredibly hard to understand, particularly during his fast-paced first scene. It is unfortunate that the script required him to speak quickly right out of the gate, as I did understand him more as the film continued and I became accustomed to his speech. However, about the time Muresan becomes coherent, the characters head to New York and the film takes a dive. Off the high board.
Suddenly, we are expected to believe Sammy is a do-whatever-it-takes slime ball.  If he had, the first scenes could never have been so lighthearted and magical. But now, in New York, we are further introduced to his neglected wife and son, and his character is desperate enough to involve Max in a disturbing giant vs. midgets wrestling match, which I found quite unpleasant and jarring within the framework of the film. Indeed, many scenes stuck out of this film like incorrectly placed puzzle pieces. This includes the scenes featuring Steven Seagal, when Sammy gets Max a role in a big, Hollywood movie filming in Las Vegas. While I enjoyed seeing Seagal poke fun at himself, the scenes appeared to exist solely because of his participation, rather than because the film demanded it. And the audience is required to take a huge leap to believe that Max would win the role based on his quotations of Shakespeare. At this point I found myself thinking, `We're supposed to believe that someone would cast this guy in a film?' Then I realized he was, and I was watching it.
In the final third, the film undergoes another transformation, this time to unbridled sentimentality. Note: Major plot points are revealed in this and the final paragraph. Max went to America because Sammy promised to reunited him with his childhood love, Lillianna, who hasn't seen him since he was a normal-sized kid. Her refusal to see Max (unbeknownst to him) leads us to an awkward `ends justify the means' scene as Sammy's wife Serena, played nicely by Kathleen Quinlan, poses as Lillianna. I found this scene offensive. Not only did it rely on deception to induce warm, fuzzy feelings from the audience, it reduced Max to someone we should pity and coddle, which I thought was quite undeserved. I think Max could have handled the truth, gratuitous illness and all. Late in the film we learn Max, and in fact all giants, have a heart condition which shortens their lives considerably. This could be an enlightening revelation, but the film seemingly presents it only to justify Sammy's transformation into a caring, sensitive guy -- and hey, a great dad and husband, too!
`My Giant' suffers from a poorly constructed story line and undeveloped characters whose actions are determined by plot points rather than their own internal persuasions. A stronger story with more room for character growth might have been possible if the focus was on Max's struggle to be accepted and cast in movies instead of Sammy's struggles to get money and become a better person. In this scenario, Max's illness could have been a integral part of the film not a story motivator. Sentiment and emotion would have followed naturally. Instead, we're apparently not supposed to like Sammy until the end, but we're not allowed to focus on Max.

Defying PM, thousands of Iraqis continue to flood Baghdad square
by Reuters1 / 11Iraqi demonstrators block Al-Sanak Bridge during the ongoing anti-government protests in Baghdad
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Thousands of anti-government protesters gathered in central Baghdad on Monday, defying the prime minister's plea to end protests which he says are costing Iraq's economy billions of dollars and disrupting daily life.
The protests have broken nearly two years of relative stability in Iraq since they started on Oct.1. More than 250 people have been killed.
Despite the country's oil wealth, many people live in poverty with limited access to clean water, electricity, healthcare or education.
"The youth have lived through economic hardships, explosions, oppression. We want to root out this political elite completely. We want to get rid of this gang, then maybe we can rest," said a protester, said a protester, who did not wish to be identified, who had camped overnight in Baghdad's Tahrir Square.
Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi appealed to protesters on Sunday night to suspend their movement which he said had achieved its goals and was hurting the economy.
The premier has said he is willing to resign if politicians agree on a replacement and promised a number of reforms, but protesters say that is not enough and that the entire political class needs to go.
Operations at Iraq's main Gulf port of Umm Qasr, which receives the bulk of the country's grain, vegetable oil and sugar imports, have been at a complete standstill since Wednesday.
The anger over economic hardship and corruption is aimed at the sectarian power-sharing system of governance introduced in Iraq after 2003 and the political elites benefiting from it.
The political class is seen by many as subservient to one or other of Baghdad's main allies, the United States and Iran, who use Iraq as a proxy in a struggle for regional influence.
Hundreds of protesters gathered overnight in front of the Iranian consulate in the Shi'ite holy city of Kerbala and tried to set it on fire. Security forces dispersed them using tear gas and live ammunition, security and medical sources said. At least 10 people were wounded included four from gunshots.

Inheritance vs Composition
The difference between composition and inheritance is, from my current vantage point; pretty subtle.
We use inheritance to group similar objects together. Sub classes inherit methods with super classes.
Composition accomplishes something similar with by creating new classes and libraries of methods and constants called Modules.
It might boil down to a personal style or team culture
It might also run afoul of the Agile community.
I can't wait to see.

The SHA1 Password Calculator Pwcalc works as safely as a meat grinder:
If you put in a pig and turn the crank,
you will get minced meat.
But pushing back the minced meat while turning the crank
backwards, will not bring back the pig.
That is quite secure.
In a simplified form it looks like this:
secret word + alias | SHA1
| Base64 = password
You chose a single secret word and an alias for the service the password is needed for.
mysecret + gmail.com
This is combined to a single string (the pic).
mysecretgmail.com
Next the cryptographic hash function SHA1 is applied to this compound word, which produces a 160-bit hash value typically rendered as hexadecimal number:
5e63
2f05
760b
5563
a1d9
ad9e
e555
540d
7c19
9c65
These 40 digits are then taken as (binary) input for the Base64 function which produces the password (the minced meat):
XmMv BXYL VWOh 2a2e 5VVU DXwZ nGU=
This unique password cannot by any means be traced back to the secret word or alias.
Although all this might seem complicated it is actually technically quite simple.
On standard MacOS X or Linux the you can build a Password Calculator in a terminal with existing commands :
echo -n "mysecretgmail.com" \
| shasum \
| xxd -r -p \
| base64
XmMvBXYLVWOh2a2e5VVUDXwZnGU=
On Linux replace shasum by sha1sum.

Best Practices
What rules of thumb can you give me for configuring Storm+Trident?
- number of workers a multiple of number of machines; parallelism a multiple of number of workers; number of kafka partitions a multiple of number of spout parallelism
- Use one worker per topology per machine
- Start with fewer, larger aggregators, one per machine with workers on it
- Use the isolation scheduler
- Use one acker per worker – 0.9 makes that the default, but earlier versions do not.
- enable GC logging; you should see very few major GCs if things are in reasonable shape.
- set the trident batch millis to about 50% of your typical end-to-end latency.
- Start with a max spout pending that is for sure too small – one for trident, or the number of executors for storm – and increase it until you stop seeing changes in the flow. You’ll probably end up with something near
2*(throughput in recs/sec)*(end-to-end latency)
(2x the Little’s law capacity).
What are some of the best ways to get a worker to mysteriously and bafflingly die?
- Do you have write access to the log directory
- Are you blowing out your heap?
- Are all the right libraries installed on all of the workers?
- Is the zookeeper hostname still set to localhost?
- Did you supply a correct, unique hostname – one that resolves back to the machine – to each worker, and put it in the storm conf file?
- Have you opened firewall/securitygroup permissions bidirectionally among a) all the workers, b) the storm master, c) zookeeper? Also, from the workers to any kafka/kestrel/database/etc that your topology accesses? Use netcat to poke the appropriate ports and be sure.
Halp! I cannot see:
- my logs Logs by default go to $STORM_HOME/logs. Check that you have write permissions to that directory. They are configured in the logback/cluster.xml (0.9) and log4j/*.properties in earlier versions.
- final JVM settings Add the
-XX+PrintFlagsFinal
commandline option in the childopts (see the conf file) - final Java system properties Add
Properties props = System.getProperties(); props.list(System.out);
near where you build your topology.
How many Workers should I use?
The total number of workers is set by the supervisors – there’s some number of JVM slots each supervisor will superintend. The thing you set on the topology is how many worker slots it will try to claim.
There’s no great reason to use more than one worker per topology per machine.
With one topology running on three 8-core nodes, and parallelism hint 24, each bolt gets 8 executors per machine, i.e. one for each core. There are three big benefits to running three workers (with 8 assigned executors each) compare to running say 24 workers (one assigned executor each).
First, data that is repartitioned (shuffles or group-bys) to executors in the same worker will not have to hit the transfer buffer. Instead, tuples are deposited directly from send to receive buffer. That’s a big win. By contrast, if the destination executor were on the same machine in a different worker, it would have to go send -> worker transfer -> local socket -> worker recv -> exec recv buffer. It doesn’t hit the network card, but it’s not as big a win as when executors are in the same worker.
Second, you’re typically better off with three aggregators having very large backing cache than having twenty-four aggregators having small backing caches. This reduces the effect of skew, and improves LRU efficiency.
Lastly, fewer workers reduces control flow chatter.
Topology
Can a Trident topology have Multiple Streams?
Can a Trident Topology work like a workflow with conditional paths (if-else)? e.g. A Spout (S1) connects to a bolt (B0) which based on certain values in the incoming tuple routes them to either bolt (B1) or bolt (B2) but not both.
A Trident “each” operator returns a Stream object, which you can store in a variable. You can then run multiple eaches on the same Stream to split it, e.g.:
Stream s = topology.each(...).groupBy(...).aggregate(...)
Stream branch1 = s.each(..., FilterA)
Stream branch2 = s.each(..., FilterB)
You can join streams with join, merge or multiReduce.
At time of writing, you can’t emit to multiple output streams from Trident – see STORM-68
Spouts
What is a coordinator, and why are there several?
A trident-spout is actually run within a storm bolt. The storm-spout of a trident topology is the MasterBatchCoordinator – it coordinates trident batches and is the same no matter what spouts you use. A batch is born when the MBC dispenses a seed tuple to each of the spout-coordinators. The spout-coordinator bolts know how your particular spouts should cooperate – so in the kafka case, it’s what helps figure out what partition and offset range each spout should pull from.
What can I store into the spout’s metadata record?
You should only store static data, and as little of it as possible, into the metadata record (note: maybe you can store more interesting things; you shouldn’t, though)
How often is the ‘emitPartitionBatchNew’ function called?
Since the MBC is the actual spout, all the tuples in a batch are just members of its tupletree. That means storm’s “max spout pending” config effectively defines the number of concurrent batches trident runs. The MBC emits a new batch if it has fewer than max-spending tuples pending and if at least one trident batch interval’s worth of seconds has passed since the last batch.
If nothing was emitted does Trident slow down the calls?
Yes, there’s a pluggable “spout wait strategy”; the default is to sleep for a configurable amount of time
OK, then what is the trident batch interval for?
You know how computers of the 486 era had a turbo button on them? It’s like that.
Actually, it has two practical uses. One is to throttle spouts that poll a remote source without throttling processing. For example, we have a spout that looks in a given S3 bucket for a new batch-uploaded file to read, linebreak and emit. We don’t want it hitting S3 more than every few seconds: files don’t show up more than once every few minutes, and a batch takes a few seconds to process.
The other is to limit overpressure on the internal queues during startup or under a heavy burst load – if the spouts spring to life and suddenly jam ten batches’ worth of records into the system, you could have a mass of less-urgent tuples from batch 7 clog up the transfer buffer and prevent the $commit tuple from batch 3 to get through (or even just the regular old tuples from batch 3). What we do is set the trident batch interval to about half the typical end-to-end processing latency – if it takes 600ms to process a batch, it’s OK to only kick off a batch every 300ms.
Note that this is a cap, not an additional delay – with a period of 300ms, if your batch takes 258ms Trident will only delay an additional 42ms.
How do you set the batch size?
Trident doesn’t place its own limits on the batch count. In the case of the Kafka spout, the max fetch bytes size divided by the average record size defines an effective records per subbatch partition.
How do I resize a batch?
The trident batch is a somewhat overloaded facility. Together with the number of partitions, the batch size is constrained by or serves to define
- the unit of transactional safety (tuples at risk vs time)
- per partition, an effective windowing mechanism for windowed stream analytics
- per partition, the number of simultaneous queries that will be made by a partitionQuery, partitionPersist, etc;
- per partition, the number of records convenient for the spout to dispatch at the same time;
You can’t change the overall batch size once generated, but you can change the number of partitions – do a shuffle and then change the parallelism hint
Time Series
How do I aggregate events by time?
If have records with an immutable timestamp, and you would like to count, average or otherwise aggregate them into discrete time buckets, Trident is an excellent and scalable solution.
Write an Each
function that turns the timestamp into a time bucket: if the bucket size was “by hour”, then the timestamp 2013-08-08 12:34:56
would be mapped to the 2013-08-08 12:00:00
time bucket, and so would everything else in the twelve o’clock hour. Then group on that timebucket and use a grouped persistentAggregate. The persistentAggregate uses a local cacheMap backed by a data store. Groups with many records require very few reads from the data store, and use efficient bulk reads and writes; as long as your data feed is relatively prompt Trident will make very efficient use of memory and network. Even if a server drops off line for a day, then delivers that full day’s worth of data in a rush, the old results will be calmly retrieved and updated – and without interfering with calculating the current results.
How can I know that all records for a time bucket have been received?
You cannot know that all events are collected – this is an epistemological challenge, not a distributed systems challenge. You can:
- Set a time limit using domain knowledge
- Introduce a punctuation: a record known to come after all records in the given time bucket. Trident uses this scheme to know when a batch is complete. If you for instance receive records from a set of sensors, each in order for that sensor, then once all sensors have sent you a 3:02:xx or later timestamp lets you know you can commit.
- When possible, make your process incremental: each value that comes in makes the answer more an more true. A Trident ReducerAggregator is an operator that takes a prior result and a set of new records and returns a new result. This lets the result be cached and serialized to a datastore; if a server drops off line for a day and then comes back with a full day’s worth of data in a rush, the old results will be calmly retrieved and updated.
- Lambda architecture: Record all events into an archival store (S3, HBase, HDFS) on receipt. in the fast layer, once the time window is clear, process the bucket to get an actionable answer, and ignore everything older than the time window. Periodically run a global aggregation to calculate a “correct” answer.

This day the legion, after depositing every kind of baggage, took up the line of march at 7 o'clock, and continued their route down the margin of the river, without making any discovery, until 11 o'clock, when the front guard, which was composed of mounted volunteers, were fired on by the enemy. The guard retreated in the utmost confusion through the front guard of the regulars, commanded by Captain Cook and Lieutenant Steele, who, in spite of their utmost exertion, made a retreat. These fell in with the left of Captain Howell Lewis' company of light infantry and threw that part of the men into confusion, which Captain Lewis observing, he ordered the left of his company to retreat about forty yards, where he formed them and joined the right, which had stood their ground. They continued in this position until they were joined by part of Captain Springer's battalion of riflemen, which was nearly fifteen minutes after the firing commenced, who drove the enemy that had attempted to flank us on the right. Nearly at the same time, the right column came up, and the charge was sounded—the enemy gave way and fired scattering shots as they run off.
About the time the right column came up, a heavy firing took place on the left, which lasted but a short time, the enemy giving way in all quarters, which left us in possession of their dead to the number of forty. Our loss was thirty killed and one hundred wounded. Among the former we have to lament the loss of Captain Miss Campbell of the dragoons, and Lieutenant Henry B. Fowles of the 4th sub-legion; and of the latter, Captains Prior of the first, Slough of the fourth, and Van Rensselaer of the dragoons, also Lieutenant Campbell Smith of the fourth sub-legion. The whole loss of the enemy cannot at present be ascertained, but it is more than probable it must have been considerable, for we pursued them with rapidity for nearly two miles. As to the number of the enemy engaged in this action, opinions are so various that I am at a loss to know what to say; the most general opinion is one thousand five hundred, one-third of which are supposed to be Canadians; I am led to believe this number is not over the mark. After the troops had taken some refreshment, the legion continued their route down the river, and encamped in sight of the British garrison. One Canadian fell into our hands, who we loaded with irons.
