Clawpack Documentation Version 5.0 --- Under Construction! Not yet accurate |
Since GeoClaw is a modified version of amrclaw, all of the parameters that are required for AMRClaw are also needed by GeoClaw. See Specifying AMRClaw run-time parameters in setrun.py for a discussion of these, and Specifying run-time parameters in setrun.py for a description of setrun.py input scripts more generally.
In addition, a number of other parameters should be set in the setrun.py file in any GeoClaw application.
It is best to look at a specific example while reading this section, for example Sample GeoClaw setrun.py module.
The function setrun in this module is essentially the same as for AMRClaw, except that it expects to be called with claw_pkg = ‘geoclaw’. This call should be performed properly by the Makefile if you have CLAW_PKG = geoclaw set properly there.
The new section setgeo function in this module contains the new GeoClaw parameters.
A brief summary of these:
New in 4.6.0: It is now possible to have GeoClaw automatically choose refinement factors in time on each level based on an estimate of the maximum wave speed on all grids at this level. For most hyperbolic problems the CFL condition suggests that one should refine in time by the same factor as in space. However, for GeoClaw applications where fine grids appear only in shallow coastal regions this may not be the case. Automatic choice of refinement factors is used if
is set to True. The default is False, in which case refinement factors in time are specified by the user as usual.
igravity = 1 should be set in general.
gravitational constant in m/s**2, e.g. gravity = 9.81.
icoordsys = 1 for Cartesian x-y in meters,
icoordsys = 2 for latitude-longitude.
These parameters are used for tsunami modeling (can also be used for other problems — need to clarify this!).
sea level (often sealevel = 0.)
Cells are flagged for refinement if the difference between the surface elevation and sea level is larger than this tolerance. Note that whether refinement is actually done depends also on how various AMR regions have been set (see Section Specifying AMR regions) and also on several other attributes described below that contain information on minimum and maximum refinement allowed in various regions.
For simulations over the ocean, it is often useful to specify a maximum refinement level allowed in deep parts of the ocean. This is useful if a high level of refinement is specified on some rectangular region but only the parts of this region near the shore actually need to be refined.
The deepness that triggers the refinement limitation imposed by maxleveldeep above.
Whether or not to include source terms for friction (1=yes, 0=no). Is this actually used??
For friction source terms, the Manning coefficient.
Friction source terms are only applied in water shallower than this, since they have negligible effect in shallower water.

Stilson Video Services records legal video depositions in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 30(b)(3) which governs the taking of video depositions to be admitted in a court of law. We cover video depositions mainly in the greater Cleveland area and throughout northeastern Ohio as well.
Legal video depositions are the best method to effectively present the visual and verbal communication cues of the witness. It is the best alternative to a live appearance of an unavailable key witness. We record video depositions with proper lighting and backgrounds. Microphones are placed on the deponent, deposing attorney(s), opposing attorney(s) and videographer.
Legal video recorded depositions can be synchronized with the court reporter's written transcript. This provides a very useful tool for reviewing the video deposition and trial presentation. Our legal video depositions are recorded in professional Digital Video (DV) format, with year-month-date-day-hour-minute-seconds burned into the lower third of the image. We can provide duplicates of the original video deposition on DVD, VHS videotape, MPEG-1, or synchronized video. In addition, an audio recording is made for the convenience of the stenographic court reporter.
Legal video depositions are delivered with a Tape Log, Objections and Colloquy Log, and proper labeling and packaging. The Original video deposition is delivered to the client with a signed Certificate of Authenticity. Activities of Daily Living Video(Also referred to as Day-In-The-Life Video)
The purpose of this video is to honestly and accurately portray how the plaintiff's normal life routines have been altered as a result of his or her injury. The jury must clearly see and understand how the plaintiff's life has been changed so they are able to measure the loss. Many judges have held that video documentaries depicting the plaintiff's consequential damages are the "best from of evidence the jury has" to evaluate damages. If the jurors understand the injury and its impact, they can intelligently place a value on the case.
(Also referred to as Settlement Brochure)
A mediation documentary is a concise summation of a case - usually produced on behalf of a plaintiff. The final presentation is 10 to 20 minutes long and resembles a TV style documentary. Our objective is to get the defense and insurance company to fully comprehend the pain and suffering as a result of their negligence or product liability. The presentation usually covers liability and damages and is presented during mediation or arbitration.
In today’s media-centric society, video editing can really make or break a case. If it is not done well, the jury won’t be impressed. This requires a high level of expertise along with the latest tools and technology to get the job done.
We use the same software and technology utilized by Hollywood to create TV shows and feature films. Top professionals in the industry have trained our editors and we are committed to ongoing training that ensures we are up to speed on the latest technologies and techniques. In short, if we can imagine it, it can probably be accomplished through video editing.
Still Photos from VideoWe can take camcorder tapes or VHS tapes and convert specific points on the tapes to digital files. At that point they can be printed as photographs or archived on a CD.
Video & Audio EnhancementIt is sometimes necessary to "clean up" audio so that the content can be clearly understood in court. The same is true with video. We have the tools and skills needed to enhance most audio and video so you can use it to your best advantage.
International ConversionsWe can convert PAL or SECAM format tapes to an NTSC tape or DVD (the format used in the United States). Tapes recorded overseas will usually not play in players built for the US market. Our specialized conversion equipment allows us to solve this problem for you.
Duplication ServicesWe can get your CD and/or DVD duplication order turned quickly enough to meet almost any deadline. We use only the best CD and DVDs available, utilizing the latest in technology to ensure your satisfaction. We never use labels, but instead imprint directly onto the DVDs/CDs. We can also duplicate most tape formats as well. We look forward to handling your next duplication project.
Where’s the pricing? We’ve found that a one-price-fits-all pricelist approach doesn’t fit this kind of service. Every project is vastly different and must be priced accordingly. This allows us to give our best price to each customer.

This was an individual project created to showcase many graphics techniques, while creating a landscape that built up over time, Game of Thrones title sequence style.
Here's just some of the techniques at play (more are mentioned in the video):
The program can run at a stable 60FPS, and allows the user to switch between free movement and the guided camera track, made using catmull rom splines.
Polish the graphics like crazy. The reflective water would benefit from a displacement map and a bit of transparency, and could also be tessellated to produce wave-like effects. The program could also benefit from cascaded shadow mapping, considering how blocky some of the shadows appear. I'd also like to improve the portal effect, to allow the transition to be seamless (the flash transition is only there to somewhat hide the fact that lights and shadows aren't present on the other side of the portal). This would require restructuring how the scene is rendered (rendering the portal scene completely before any rendering on the current scene, including transparency), but I reckon it'd be worth it.

CONTRABAND (director/writer: Michael Powell; screenwriter: Emeric Pressburger/Brock Williams; cinematographer: Freddie Young; cast: Conrad Veidt (Capt. Anderson),Valerie Hobson (Mrs. Sorenson), Joss Ambler ( Lieutenant Commander Ashton RNR), Raymond Lovell (Van Dyne), Esmond Knight (Mr. Pidgeon), Harold Warrender (Lieutenant Commander Ellis RN), Eric Maturin (Passport Officer), Hay Petrie (Axel Skold/Erik Skold), 1940)
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
A minor but most enjoyable tongue-in-cheek Hitchcockian-like spy thriller from the Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger team. Conrad Veidt is Danish Captain Anderson of the merchant ship Helvig, where he is stopped on British waters for a contraband check in 1939 and taken to a control port, where he will have to wait until morning before the boat is cleared. He soon discovers that his landing passes giving to him by the British have been stolen by two passengers, Mrs Sorensen (Valerie Hobson) and Mr Pidgeon (Esmond Knight), which prompts Anderson to row ashore in pursuit of them; it will turn out that both are agents for British Naval Intelligence. He locates them on a train bound for London, but loses him and desperately clings on to her (a wise choice, she is very attractive). In the middle of the blackout a vender is hawking gas masks and torches, and the wartime atmosphere is cleverly made use of, as he courts the divorced Mrs. Sorenson despite the imminent dangers surrounding her. He takes her to dine in the Danish restaurant of the brother of his first-mate, Axel Skold (Hay Petrie), and is given the royal treatment by the owner, Erik Skold (Hay Petrie). Soon the two are captured by German spies and taken for interrogation to an old nemesis of hers, Van Dyne (Raymond Lovell), who discovers she has info about neutral ships helping the Germans, which are hidden on cigarette paper.
When Anderson escapes being tied up, he leaves her behind to make it look like they are both there, and he goes back to the same restaurant and recruits the help of the staff to rescue her and capture the spies. Mrs Sorensen then gives the real message she is carrying to her superiors and the merchant ship sails on time to Denmark with everyone on board.
The brisk pace of the film and its touches of quaintness, made the film seem very comically endearing inspite of the lack of any character study and the one-dimensional tone of the villains. The likable lovers, also, starred in Powell's The Spy in Black... It was strange to see Veidt in a romantic hero role, and even though he is such a fine actor, I prefer him in villain roles and wonder how much better a more romantically inclined hero would have fared in that role.
My favorite line in the film is when Veidt tells Hobson why he is still not in the Danish navy: "The smaller the ship, the bigger the adventure."

CHARLIE CHAN IN EGYPT (director: Louis King; screenwriters: Helen Logan/Robert Ellis; cinematographer: Daniel Clark; editor: Alfred de Gaetano; cast: Warner Oland (Charlie Chan), Pat Paterson (Carol Arnold), Thomas Beck (Tom Evans), Jameson Thomas (Dr. Anton Racine), James C. Eagles (Barry Arnold), Frank Conroy (Prof. John Thurston), Stepin Fetchit (Snowshoes), Frank Reicher (Dr. Jaipur), Edfu Ahmad, Servant (Nigel de Brulier), Rita Hayworth (Nayda), George Irving (Prof. Arnold), John George (Ali); Runtime: 65; 20th Century Fox; 1935)
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
An average Charlie Chan featuring Warner Oland as the Honolulu-based detective. Rita Hayworth has a bit part as a servant, while Stepin Fetchit plays his usual stereotyped role--this might be offensive to some. He's called Snowshoes and believes his ancestors are buried in one of the tombs. Charlie shows up at an archeological dig in Egypt to investigate why the sponsors of the dig, The French Archeology Society, haven't received their valuables as arranged and why these valuables are showing up in the collections of their rivals. Charlie learns that Professor Arnold (Irving) opened up the Ameti tomb and a King-Tut curse came with it, as one of his workers, Ali, mysteriously died.
Professor Arnold has been unheard of for a month, and his daughter Carol (Paterson), her boyfriend Tom Evans (Beck), and his violin playing son Barry (Eagles) are worried. Carol's uncle, Professor Thurston (Conroy), a business partner on the dig with Professor Arnold doesn't seem concerned, saying that he's probably too busy to communicate. When Charlie insists on seeing the treasures, he has an x-ray machine look through the mummy case and discovers Professor Arnold's body with a bullet hole in it near the heart. He later learns the cause of death was a blow to the head.
Another partner in the venture is Dr. Racine (Thomas), who took over sponsorship when the other group pulled out. He now wants to make a profit on that investment, and Thurston admits selling the items to private collectors so he could pay Racine; Racine's also the family physician and is treating Carol with drugs for her nervous condition. There's one other suspect, Edfu Ahmad, a servant who is fanatical about making sure those who open up a tomb get paid back with vengeance.
Through his investigation Chan finds the cause of Professor Arnold's death is that he discovered a secret passage in the tomb leading to a hidden room with more valuable treasures, and that the killer didn't want anyone else to know about this room.
There are really only two logical suspects, and the usual traps Charlie sets do the job in bringing the killer out in the open. This was a lackluster suspense story, which at times seems more like a horror film; and, the actors didn't distinguish themselves. But the film gave off some Egyptian charm, those borrowed from a long list of Hollywood B-movies. But the crime motif was greed and had nothing to do with any ancient curses.

When I was little, they took mommy away and put me with a new mommy in a smelly dark house.
They said she was a real person, but I knew she wasn't. They had made her.
 I hated her.
Real mommy called me from underground. I opened the attic window at sundown and let the spring breeze flow in. I heard her song floating in on the cool air, soft singing from the grave.

Ride With the Devil (1999) 1 star out of 4. Starring Tobey Maguire, Skeet Ulrich, Jewel and Jeffrey Wright. Directed by Ang Lee.
"Ride With the Devil," an overwrought Civil War melodrama, is a very long and boring trot.
The mediocre offering from director Ang Lee is a major misfire, a big disappointment that will do nothing to further the career of its two main stars, Tobey Maguire and Skeet Ulrich.
Nor will Jewel probably want to add her lackluster film debut to her resume.
This wounded turkey lacks focus and a point. Is it about the futility of war? Is it a story of accepting responsibility? Or is it a tale of brotherhood?
Who knows. Who cares. Director Lee, best known for his fine work on "Eat Drink Man Woman," "Sense and Sensibility" and "The Ice Storm," seems lost as he tries to handle this potboiler that looks at the war from the point of view of two Missouri youths who join the Bushwhacker guerrilla movement to protect their state from being overrun by Jayhawkers and federal troops.
The stilted dialogue sounds like it was ripped from the pages of some failed romance novel.
None of the main actors shows any personality or spark. When not skirmishing with the enemy, they sit around a lot just chewing the fat, boring us to death.
Now I know why war is hell.
The movie's bright spot belongs to Jeffrey Wright as Daniel Holt, a former slave who chooses to fight with the Southern sympathizers. Holt is the only character who shows any complexity or dimension.
Ulrich, especially, with an accent dripping with molasses, sounds like a refugee from a road show company of "Gone With the Wind." His mannerisms are such sickening affectations that you find it hard to believe Lee actually allowed his cinematographer to film his scenes.
Maguire seems to spend most of his time pouting, when he's not shooting people or talking endlessly about family and honor.
The only positive about "Ride With the Devil" is the scenery. Otherwise this is one Civil War drama that should be gone with the wind.

| All Kind of Havans | The ritual consists of prayers, chanting, offerings, etc. These are done with a team of dasas.  It is a ritual of sacrifice made to the fire god Agni. After lighting a Havan Kund (sacrificial fire), objects such as fruits, honey, or wooden goods are put into the sacred fire.If there are any spirits that are evil around you or even inside you they get burned off in the sacred fire.It is believed that this sacrifice will bring health, happiness, luck and prosperity. |
| Griha Shanti | Griha Shanti Puja After having matched the horoscopes of the prospective bride and groom, a puja or prayer is held. It is called Griha Shanti puja, which is done by the priest. A Mahurat or auspicious time is chosen for the conduct of the prayer. All the family members and relatives participate in this auspicious ritual. It is an important puja, which is performed at the bride as well as groom's house. |
| Maha Laxmi Puja | Lakshmi, also called Laxmi, is the goddess of wealth,fortune, power, luxury, beauty, fertility, and auspiciousness. She holds the promise of material fulfilment and contentment. She is described as restless, whimsical yet maternal, with her arms raised to bless and to grant her blessings. |
| Durga Puja | Durga Puja is celebrated with joy all over India, especially West Bengal in worship of Goddess Durga. Singing, dancing, sweets & gaiety are an integral part of the Durga Pooja Festival. People send Durga Puja Gifts to dear ones and express good wishes. |
| Masik - Shivratri (Shiv Abhishek) Puja |
Shivaratri Pooja has been given tremendous significance in Hindu mythology. It is said that ritual worship of Lord Shiva on a Shivaratri day pleases Lord Shiva the most. Devotees further believe that by pleasing Lord Shankara on the auspicious Shivaratri day, a person is absolved of past sins and is blessed with Moksha or salvation. |
| Hanuman Chalisa | The Hanuman Chalisa is a very powerful mantra and many a sage have contemplated on the same to provide their own dimensions and meaning to the Chalisa. The Chalisa was actually written by Sant Tulsidas and is in the old Hindi style. The Hanuman Chalisa has always been revered as the most sacred and powerful mantra and has certainly helped me in gaining my stature during times of weakness. |
| Bhajans | Songs of devotion sung in praise of God, usually in groups. A Bhajan or kirtan is a Hindu devotional song, often of ancient origin. Great importance is attributed to the singing of bhajans with Bhakti, i.e. loving devotion. "Rasanam Lakshanam Bhajanam" means the act by which we feel closer to either our true self (see jiva, atman), or to God (see Brahman& Ishvara). Acts which are performed for the purpose of pleasing God are also sometimes called bhajan. |
| Devi Bhagwat and Bhagwat Katha |
Shrimad Bhagwat liberates us from fear, problems, and ignorance. In essence, this is the crux of Shrimad Bhagwat. It is a reminder of the very principles that guide & regulate our lives. He explained those principles in a very interesting manner picking up stories from the lives of people in the history as well as contemporary times. He gave numerous examples how these principles were upheld by great saints & souls for thousands of years. He cautioned the audience that these stories & incidents are only the conveying tools for the real message. |

Haahoos of Transactions- The Power of Two-phase Commit (2PC)
I am going to put down some thought here soon. Meantime check this presenation which dicusses the five forms of the two phase commit protocol. In this blog, I focus on synchronous network. But we can relate the dicusstion easily to asynchrnous or partially sycnrhnous networks. There are some established sentiments about 2PC.
Sentiment 1: 2PC is only for transactions with different objects and/or multiple operations.
Sentiment 2: 2PC is always blocking, thus we need 3PC.
In this blog post, I am going to convince you that these sentiments are slightly wrong and there are exceptions. 2PC is multi facets. For instance, 2PC can easily be used accomodate single-object read/write/RMWs over replicated key-value store (KVS). Such 2PC protocol is non-blocking and infact the basic building block of replicated databases and CAP theorem (check some early Phil Bernstein work as well).

About a year ago (April 2010), a close friend of mine introduced me to LSD. Before then, I had only occasionally smoked marijuana and salvia from time to time since I was eighteen. From the few mushroom and LSD trips (bad and good) I had encountered since then, I came to learn how powerful the human mind really is. These experiences changed my life; my religion, political affiliation, and outlook towards other people all changed from the way that LSD forced me to examine certain principles in life. Needless to say, I gained a newfound respect for the power entheogens have on the human psyche.
As much as acid changed my life, it absolutely frightened me. Before my most recent experience, the thought alone of putting a tab on my tongue made my heart start racing. As much as I wanted to further explore my own consciousness, it seemed I was more terrified of experiencing another bad trip than I was looking forward to experience another good (spiritual) trip.   It is hell. What if my next trip was so bad it threatened my sanity? What if I got caught in another thought loop? (thought A leads to thought B, leading back to A, to B, to A, B, A, B, etc.) What if I open up another door of perception I may never be able to close? I also had a lot of goofy, irrational fears about every the infamous December 21st, 2012 doomsday prophesy I didn’t want to surface.
I talked to my good friend about the dilemma I was in; I felt that expanding my consciousness was a vital part of self exploration, but I didn’t want to risk losing my marbles doing so. In other words, I wanted to trip, but didn’t want to fall. My friend recommended I try a hit of 2C-E – or as this person called it, “baby acid” – before making the jump back up to LSD. My good friend explained to me that it was similar to acid in the visual aspect, but didn’t give you the headspace that L did. I decided to take this person’s advice and give it a try, knowing I’d never get over my acid anxiety if never tripped again.
So I got my hands on some 2C-E. I decided I wanted to trip outside during the day in a nice, safe place with some music handy in order to ensure the best possibility for a good trip. In case things got bad, I had a hit of molly in my pocket I got from my good friend (which I later found out was really 4 hits/400mg).
[3:15]
I met my girlfriend at duck pond on the Virginia Tech campus (where I went to school). We spent few minutes together before she had to head to work. I took the 10mg pill of 2C-E right around the time I arrived. I shared my plans with her; I planned on spending the day at the duck pond and talking walks on the outside of campus through the farmland until the peak of the trip wore off to the point to where I felt I could safely drive.

I kissed my girlfriend goodbye as she headed to work. She told me she loved me and to be safe. As soon as she left, I began walking around the outskirts of campus waiting for the trip to kick in. Before taking a walk, I grabbed my music player and headphones. I wanted to have all my chill music at my disposal to help keep my mind off the anticipation as I was waiting for the trip to surface.
[5:20]
I started coming off my baseline. I was a bit nervous, so I stopped listening to the music and paid attention to what was going on with my mind, because it certainly wasn’t acting normal. The first thing I noticed was that I had trouble recalling the past. I tried thinking about what I did yesterday or the path I took around campus, but I couldn’t gather my thoughts together. All I could focus on was what was going on at the present moment. About this time, my good friend shot me a text asking how I was doing. I told him it was very, “right now.”
[5:40]
I was officially tripping. I was having visuals much to the akin of a very light acid trip. Sounds became a bit different as well. For a while, I was hearing a certain bird call/chirp. When I started thinking to myself what that chirp sounded like, I started becoming confused as to whether or not I just heard the same chirp or I thought I did because I was thinking about it. That seemed to happen a lot to me on LSD—I’d think of a sound I just heard a bunch of times and I’d confuse whether I was still hearing it or just thinking it.
[5:48]
By now, the trip was fully set in. A sense of calmness came over me. “I remember this! I’ve been here before!” I thought to myself. “I have nothing to fear with this. Just go with the flow. Don’t fight anything” I started noticing my mind was less immersed in what was physical, but more tuned into the metaphysical (spiritual) aspect of existence. Think of it this way: Metaphorically, your brain is an FM radio receiver. Your whole life, you are used to receiving FM radio. What if you took a drug that temporarily weakened your brains FM receiving capabilities while simultaneously giving you the ability to tune into crystal clear, XM radio for a while? Would you want to experience a higher, clearer frequency, or would you be too freaked out that your normal state of FM receiving is altered?
To me, this is what tripping is all about. I felt like there was a whole interconnected, spiritual network out there somehow connecting all living thing. You can’t see, smell, hear, taste, or touch this spiritual realm, but can only perceive it while experiencing a different state of conscious mind.
[6:00]
Physically, I was overactive. For some reason, I kept having the urge to keep moving. Every time I’d lie on the ground or sit on a bench, I’d have the urge to reposition myself followed by another one. That was really the only negative physical aspect of 2C-E.
I’m really not sure whether or not I was peaking at this point. Unfortunately, when one trips, his or her perception of time is distorted: What seem like 2 hours is only 45 minutes or so. By this point, I had found a nice quiet spot to sit by myself outside in the grass and just think to myself. For the next few hours, I just sat peacefully by myself and thought about some important, ontological questions:
Why am I alive? Did I choose to come before I was born here or was I just born conscious?
Have I been alive before?
Is this state of mind meant to be experienced by human beings?
If there is a god, would he or she be happy that I am seeking to further understand myself and the world I’m in, or would he or she just see me as a wretched sinner for dabbling with drugs?
[7:00] (?)
Eventually I realized I needed to stop focusing on the existence of the next life and start focusing on the journey of this life. It was then I asked switched my attention to three important questions:
What is bothering me in my life?
What is the best way for me to resolve the problems in my life?
What is the best way to live life?
At this point in my trip, I was extremely open and self critical with myself. I pinpointed my troubles and realized I needed to mend my relationship with my parents, work on paving the road my girlfriend (soon-to-be fiancée) and I will later take in life, treat my body better—i.e. heavily cut back on cigarette smoking, and be more wise with my finances.
I then began working to find a foundation of principles or truths I should build my life around. I wasn’t religious; to me Jesus was no different than Sleeping Beauty and I have always viewed the Bible and Quran as metaphorical stories and myths along the same league as The Epic of Gilgamesh. There were obviously more wrong religions than right, but which one do I choose to build myself up from?
After a while (no idea how long; my sense of time was lost) I came to the conclusion that if there was a god, this god would rather I think for myself than blindly follow every other sheep in the flock of religion by attempting to understand a poorly translated fairy tale with hopes it will lead me to the kingdom of heaven if I follow all the rules and not question any of its illogical infidelities. Soon after I confirmed with myself that most religions were nothing more than glorified myths, I decided draft my own set of guidelines to live by:
Be positive. Life is awesome when you have a positive outlook on things.
Be well balanced. Some things in moderation are good as long as addiction is avoided.
Don’t control people. Let people do whatever makes them happy unless it keeps others from being happy.
Don’t judge people unless you’ve been down the road they’re on.
Have fun and do whatever makes you happy. THE universe may not revolve around you, buy YOURS does.

It was April 16th, 2011 and I was on Virginia Tech’s campus. Many people were gathering on the drillfield for a candlelight vigil in memory of the shooting 4 years ago. I decided to go; I had a friend who was killed in the shooting. I felt it would be appropriate to honor those who were killed in the 4/16 massacre, even if I was coming out of a trip. I was a freshman when the shooting happened. I’ll never forget that it happened on a Monday, because if it were on a Tuesday, I wouldn’t be writing this right now. One of the classrooms that got shot was where I would have had class at the same time the following day.
I made my way to the drillfield and met up with a few friends who were still students at Virginia Tech. We stood together and were there for those who needed a shoulder to cry on. As the sun set, we listened to every one of the 32 names announced. I listened to where they were from, what their hobbies were, how they impacted others, and what their plans were after graduation. I began reflecting on how nice all those people seemed and how cool they would have been to meet. It was such a shame that all those lives were lost because one kid was tormented all through middle school and high school to the point where he lost his marbles and couldn’t function socially anymore. Thinking about this made me even more committed to not causing negativity in others’ lives.
[8:30]
The campus was getting dark and I was starting to come down from my trip. My visuals were practically gone, but I was still very much in a different mind than my sober self. I didn’t feel safe at the duck pond or the park alone at night, so I decided to drive to visit my girlfriend at work.
[Erowid Note: Driving while intoxicated or tripping is dangerous and irresponsible because it endangers other people. Don't do it!]
Driving wasn’t easy, especially on a manual transmission. My coordination wasn’t impaired, but I was very jumpy. The whole time I was driving, I felt like something wasn’t right with my car: my lights were on, I was in 5th gear on the highway, my emergency break wasn’t on…I’ll probably never figure out what it was. But fortunately, I drove very cautiously in the slow lane all the way to my girlfriend’s workplace and arrived safely fifteen minutes later. She saw me and started laughing.
“I’m still tripping, but I’m coming down,” I replied.
She was definitely surprised I was still feeling the effects of it. A few minutes later, after she closed the store, we went out to our cars and talked for a while. I tried to tell her all about my day and everything I learned and experienced. Unfortunately, a trip report is not something you can accurately convey to someone without them actually having tripped before. Have you ever tried telling someone about a weird dream you had but you knew no matter what you said, that person would never be able to even remotely depict what the setting of the dream was like the way you saw it? That’s what I was feeling, except it wasn’t a dream; it was an entire afternoon and evening.
[9:45]
By this time, I was back to normal except for my pupils.  It was a gay club, but the best club in the area nonetheless. They always have the greatest dance music, DJ, bar, and crowd. The last time we went there, I rolled and had a fantastic time. I planned on ending the night with a good roll at this club once more.
[11:04]
Took 400mg (thinking it was 100mg) of molly while on our way to the club. It didn’t hit until right when we arrived at around 11:45.
[Erowid Note: 100 mgs of INSERT SUBSTANCE is considered an extremely high dose, see INSERT SUBSTANCE Dose Chart]
[11:45]
400mg of molly kicks in at once. Right when it started kicking in, my whole body started feeling like something was wrong. Right then I got a general feeling of “This is not good. You are fucked! Get outside now!” I told my girlfriend and our friend I needed to go outside. I headed to the smoking deck in the back with the two following me behind. As soon as I got outside and started to breathe fresh air I felt better. I literally exhaled all my anxiety from the moment before. “It’s so beautiful out here,” I thought. “This weather is amazing!!! Look at the full moon!!!”
My girlfriend and our friend found me on the deck. She looked worried and asked me if I was alright. I told her everything was fine and that I felt amazing. I hugged and kissed her again and again. Her skin up against mine felt amazing. The combination of the molly and our intimacy made it impossible for me to let go of her.
“Let’s go inside. It’s cold out here,” she said. I looked around and realized I was the only one out on the deck not shivering. We went inside and started dancing to the house music that was playing. I could not stop dancing. It felt so amazing. The lights were entrancing. The music was pulsing through my body making me feel in complete bliss. My girlfriend looked so beautiful. Our friend was also dancing right by our side. Everything was perfect.
“This is the way life is supposed to be lived,” I thought to myself. “If everybody could feel what I was feeling right now, all wars would end instantly!”
I got close up to my girlfriend and we kept on dancing. All I wanted to do was be with her; this was the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.
“I wish I could afford a ring!” I yelled over the music.
“You don’t need a ring,” she said. “Just ask. All I want is you!”
Right there in the middle of the dance floor, I looked in her eyes and asked her, “Will you marry me?”
All she could do was nod and smile the biggest smile I had ever seen. In an instant she was gone out the back door calling all her friends and telling them the big news. With her gone, I figured it would be a good time for a water break. After all, I couldn’t tell if I was hot or cold, but figured a big cup of water was a solid decision after dancing for the past hour or so.
My new fiancée came back with our friend and we spent the rest of the time dancing and laughing with each other. I told them both this was the best and most eventful day and night of my life. For the rest of our time there, everything was perfect: my new fiancée, the music, the lights, and the people. Even cigarettes felt absolutely amazing!
[2:30]
Last call was called and my molly starts wearing off. We end up heading out before the club closes and we’re fighting traffic to get back home. My new fiancée and our friend announce they are hungry. We headed to a Waffle House for some midnight munchies. I didn’t have much of an appetite because of the 2C-E. I instead took that time to reminisce on the entire day.
I learned more about myself and the world around me. I honored the 32 lost in the VT shooting, I pledged to be a better person and not cause negativity in others’ lives, I had the time of my life at an amazing club, and I have a new, beautiful fiancée.
Best day ever.
The following day, I felt completely renewed. I felt like my mind had been washed clean. All the fears and goofy anxieties I had going into the trip were completely gone upon waking the next morning. This trip report was written nine days later and the anxieties have yet to return. Additionally, for the following three nights after the trip and roll, I had extremely vivid dreams; dreams I were completely conscious for but couldn’t wake from. They weren’t nightmares, but very high definition and vivid.
2C-E was definitely an entheogen worth experimenting with.

D.O.A. A film review by Robert Dorsett Copyright 1988 Robert Dorsett
For those of you who sort of liked FRANTIC's idea (style, "normal guy in jeopardy" plot), but didn't feel compelled to write in a story during the boring execution of the film, the new movie, D.O.A., should be most welcome.
The story revolves around Dexter Cornell, portrayed by Dennis Quaid. He plays a burned-out English professor at a "large southern university" (the movie was filmed in Austin, Texas). Early in the film, he manages to swallow a rare, fatal, slow-acting (24-48 hours to live) poison ("phosphorous chloride") during a drinking binge. To make it worse, his wife is murdered, and he's the prime suspect. The rest of the movie is dedicated to him trying to figure out who's trying to ruin his day.
D.O.A. succeeds everywhere that FRANTIC failed. It has a good story. Good pacing. It has more sophisticated commentary and humor. It has a much more imaginative visual style. Quaid, to me, is a much more believable "everyman" than Ford (in this role, at least; I generally like Ford's performances), and displays a greater acting range (ever notice how Ford seemed to only have one expression--pained--during FRANTIC?). In short, it's a true mystery, rather than a travelogue. We're given a cast of suspects, and are led along a fairly logical process of deduction. None of the fantastic gaps of credibility that plagued FRANTIC (including the worst, that Ford's character would "go out" on his own after such a short time). My only gripe is that the ending should have had more punch.
I rate D.O.A. 8/10 (FRANTIC 6.0/10). A +4 on the Leeper scale.

Domain names and ICANN
What is a domain name?
A domain name is your website name. A domain name is the address where Internet users can access your website. A domain name is used for finding and identifying computers on the Internet. Computers use IP addresses, which are a series of number. However, it is difficult for humans to remember strings of numbers. Because of this, domain names were developed and used to identify entities on the Internet rather than using IP addresses.
A domain name can be any combination of letters and numbers, and it can be used in combination of the various domain name extensions, such as .com, .net and more.
The domain name must be registered before you can use it. Every domain name is unique. No two websites can have the same domain name. If someone types in www.yourdomain.com, it will go to your website and no one else's.
The price of a domain name typically runs between $15-25 per year.
A domain name is an essential part of having a website, but it's only part of the equation. In order to launch a website, you'll also need content and a hosting service to store your files so they can be accessed on the internet. Remember that owning a domain does not mean hosting is also included.
With Website.com, a professional domain name is included for free with all premium site builder plans. The website builder will allow you to create your website, and includes hosting services so you can publish your website to live when you're ready. With our current promo, you can own a custom domain name and create your entire website at only $2/month for the first year.
Professional emails at your domain name can also help you boost your credibility and build your brand. For example<EMAIL_ADDRESS>can make your website seem more trustworthy and legitimate. Email accounts are included with Website.com Elite plans and above, starting at the promo price of just $5/month for the first year.
ICANN is the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers. It is a nonprofit organization headquartered in Southern California that was formed in 1998 to help the U.S. government manage certain functions that maintain the Internet’s core infrastructure. ICANN maintains the central repository for IP addresses and helps coordinate the supply of IP addresses. It also manages the domain name system and root servers. ICANN currently manages over 180 million domain names and four billion network addresses across 240 countries. It is also important to note that which ICANN does not control, such as content on the Internet, malware or spam and Internet access.
In order to better understand ICANN, its responsibilities and its future, there a few other acronyms to become familiar with:
DNS – Domain Name System, a global naming system that translates numerical IP addresses to domain names
IANA – Internet Assigned Numbers Authority, a part of ICANN that performs technical services critical to maintaining the DNS
NTIA – National Telecommunications and Information Administration, an organization that is part of the U.S. Department of Commerce and currently in charge of overseeing ICANN
TLD – Top-Level Domain, includes .com, .org, country codes such as .uk and mx and other suffixes.
Upcoming Changes to DNS Control For several years, the plan has been to transition oversight of the DNS from the NTIA to international multi-stakeholder oversight through ICANN. This process began in 2014 when the NTIA asked ICANN to outline the transition in a detailed proposal. Today, the NTIA continues to play a role in verifying and authorizing ICANN’s functions, but the transition to complete ICANN control is scheduled to take place on September 30, 2016.
Why It Matters? It is a widely-held belief that the Internet should not fall under the control of one stakeholder, whether that be a business, individual or government. While the NTIA has confirmed that ICANN has measures in place that will ensure multi-stakeholder control and maintain Internet openness, there are still many concerns as to how ICANN will function as an independent body.
ICANN currently gets its authority to manage the DNS via the IANA contract, granted to them by the U.S. government, but that would change under the proposed plan. Authority would pass directly to ICANN without U.S. government oversight. While concerns are that other countries will have more of an influence on the Internet, the plan is designed with the intentions of avoiding increasing any government’s power over the Internet. While it is not ICANN’s job to regulate content online, there are concerns that this could come about through shared international control of the DNS. However, there is a real effort being made to ensure that ICANN cannot regulate content following the transition. There are also concerns over how well ICANN will be able to come to decisions on controversial matters. It is vital that these processes are set up correctly from the beginning, because domain-level takedowns could lead to violations of freedom of speech and freedom of press.


Age of the Great Voyages
问题描述 :
The story evolves on the search of the seven "Proof of the Conqueror", which are seven ancient artifacts, in seven areas around the world (Northern Europe, Mediterranean, Africa, New World, Indian Ocean, South Asia and East Asia). It is said that having these proofs proves that the sailor is the champion of all sailors. Four sailors unwittingly involved in the struggle of the quest of the search of the Proof of the Conqueror.
- from wikipedia
Li Huamei, an Admiral of Ming Dynasty, is one of the four protagonists in the story. She trys to find the "Proof of the Conqueror" for the revitalization of the motherland. One person’s power is limited, so she searches for like-minded people to help her.
When Li’s fleet voyages to the New World, she meets an intelligent man – Fernandes and invite him to become a member of the fleet as a staff officer. While Fernandes is a strange man, he requires that he will join only if Li can win in the following game:
At the beginning, there are N piles of coins on the desk, the i-th pile has Pi coins. Then Fernandes and Li take turns to take coins from those piles on the desk according to the following rule: when it is someone’s turn to take coins, at first, he/she has to select no more than K (and no less than 1) piles that still have coins arbitrarily, then take arbitrary number (at least 1) of coins from each piles he/she selects. The game is over until all coins are taken, and the winer is the person who takes the last coin.
Fernandes is very familiar with this game, and Li is also very clever. So you can assume that both of them know the best strategy to win the game. Now we know the situation at the beginning, and that Fernandes takes coins first. The question is who will win the game?
输入:
The first line of each test cases has two integers: N and K, and in the second line there are N positive integers P1, P2, …, PN givin the number of coins in each pile at the beginning.
1 ≤ N ≤ 10000
0 ≤ Pi ≤<PHONE_NUMBER>

great work！
在方法1里面：
//遍历所有的边，计算入度
for(int i=0; i<V; i++)
{
degree = 0;
for (j = adj .begin(); j != adj .end(); ++j)
{
degree[*j]++;
}
}
为什么每遍历一条链表，要首先将每个链表头的顶点的入度置为0呢？
比如顶点5，若在顶点1、2、3、4的链表中出现过顶点5，那么要增加顶点5的入度，但是在遍历顶点5的链表时，又将顶点5的入度置为0了，那之前的从顶点1234到顶点5的边不是都没了吗？
后面的掩码变量部分乍一看比较难理解，其实就是把32位按照一个整体来看待。

Deploying a native Angular CLI application to Azure using VSTS
The GIT ignore file (.gitignore) will ensure only source code is saved to the repository, by excluding things like the ‘dist’ and ‘node_modules’ folders. This means that what is placed into source control is not what should be deployed to the web server. Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) and other deployment tools are used to go through the same ‘ng build’ process, and deploy the final output to the web server. Below are the steps to achieve a successful build using VSTS to Azure App Service, and these steps should be easily modifiable to other deployment tools and hosting environments.
-
Create new project using Angular CLI to ensure the structure follows Angular best practices and styles
ng new [angularProjectName] --style=scss
cd [angularProjectName]
code .
- Change 'outputPath' in angular.json to "dist" removing project subfolder
-
Check-in code changes
- Login to VSTS - example: https://[vstsTenantName].visualstudio.com
-
Optional - Create new VSTS project
-
Optional - Create new VSTS repo in existing project
-
select "code" tab then dropdown of repos at upper left and choose "+ new repository"
- Type = GIT
- Repository Name = [angularProjectName]
-
Bind local GIT repo to VSTS repo from CMD prompt from root folder of angular project (local repo root)
git remote add origin https://[vststenantname].visualstudio.com/[vstsProjectName]/_git/[repoName]
git push -u origin --all
-
Setup Azure App Service
- Example: https://[angularProjectName].azurewebsites.net
- Change platform to "64-bit"
- Change HTTP Version to "2.0"
- Change Affinity to "Off"
-
Setup build process in VSTS
- Select "Build and Release" tab and click "+ New Definition"
- Select project, repository, and branch
- Select "Empty Process"
-
Add step: Node Tool Installer
- Set to version spec 8.9 (required for Angular Cli 6)
-
Add step: NPM
-
Add step: NPM
- Display Name = build
- Command = custom
-
Command and arguments
- Development = run ng -- build
- QA (if setup in project) = run ng -- build -c qa
- Staging (if setup in project) = run ng -- build -c staging
- Production = run ng -- build --prod -c production
-
Add step: "Azure App Service Deploy"
-
Package or folder = $(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/dist
-
If project subfolder was not previously removed from angular.json dist folder in (above step), then it must be added here
- example: $(System.DefaultWorkingDirectory)/dist/[angularProjectName]
- Check "Additional Deployment Options/Publish using Web Deploy"
- Check "Additional Deployment Options/Remove additional files at destination"
- Save & queue
- Confirm successful deployment and smoke test application URL
- Setup dev, qa, and staging GIT branches and associated builds

Short Bio
My name is Anthony Hayward, before I started Code Fellows I was a Nutritionist at a company called 30/10 Weight Loss for Life. I did that for about 3 years, until the pandemic hit and shut us down. I have always had a passion for photography and film, and have ran my own business for the past 12 years. Photography has given me a passport to the world, and I have been lucky enough to do some great wolrd travelling, including places like Africa, Ethiopia, India, Alaska, Bali, Thailand, and a few others. You can view some of my photos work at anthony-hayward.com.

Job Experience
Goals
I want to become a software developer and get a job at a tech company around the area. Once that is secured, id like to get into house hacking, and purchase a home to live in, and rent out the other rooms, then when equity builds, use that to purchase another property and repaet.

USAGE:
[u_SA_SA, u_SA_CT, u_CT_CT, u_SA_P, u_CT_P] = ...
gsw_internal_energy_second_derivatives(SA,CT,p)
DESCRIPTION:
Calculates the following five second-order derivatives of
internal energy,
(1) u_SA_SA, second order derivative with respect to Absolute Salinity
at constant CT & p.
(2) u_SA_CT, second order derivative with respect to SA & CT at
constant p.
(3) u_CT_CT, second order derivative with respect to CT at constant
SA & p.
(4) u_SA_P, second-order derivative with respect to SA & P at
constant CT.
(5) u_CT_P, second-order derivative with respect to CT & P at
constant SA
Note that the 75-term equation has been fitted in a restricted range of
parameter space, and is most accurate inside the "oceanographic funnel"
described in McDougall et al. (2003). The GSW library function
"gsw_infunnel(SA,CT,p)" is avaialble to be used if one wants to test if
some of one's data lies outside this "funnel".
INPUT:
SA = Absolute Salinity [ g/kg ]
CT = Conservative Temperature [ deg C ]
p = sea pressure [ dbar ]
(i.e. absolute pressure - 10.1325 dbar)
SA & CT need to have the same dimensions.
p may have dimensions 1x1 or Mx1 or 1xN or MxN, where SA & CT are MxN.
OUTPUT:
u_SA_SA = The second derivative of internal energy with respect to
Absolute Salinity at constant CT & p. [ (J/kg)(g/kg)^-2 ]
u_SA_CT = The second derivative of internal energy with respect to
SA & CT at constant p. [ (J/kg)(g/kg)^-1 K^-1]
u_CT_CT = The second derivative of internal energy with respect to
CT at constant SA and p. [ (J/kg) K^-2 ]
u_SA_P = The second derivative of internal energy with respect to
SA & P at constant CT. [ (J/kg)(g/kg)^-1 Pa^-1 ]
u_CT_P = The second derivative of internal energy with respect to
CT & P at constant SA. [ (J/kg) K^-1 Pa^-1 ]
EXAMPLE:
SA = [34.7118; 34.8915; 35.0256; 34.8472; 34.7366; 34.7324;]
CT = [28.7856; 28.4329; 22.8103; 10.2600; 6.8863; 4.4036;]
p = [ 10; 50; 125; 250; 600; 1000;]

don't know how to synthesize placeholder context: R : Type, _inst_1 : comm_ring.{0} R, _inst_2 : topological_space.{0} R, _inst_3 : @topological_ring.{0} R _inst_2 (@comm_ring.to_ring.{0} R _inst_1), R₀ : set.{0} R, _inst_4 : @is_subring R (@comm_ring.to_ring.{0} R _inst_1) R₀, I : set.{0} (@coe_sort.{1 2} (set.{0} R) (@set.has_coe_to_sort.{0} R) R₀), _inst_5 : @is_ideal.{0} (@coe_sort.{1 2} (set.{0} R) (@set.has_coe_to_sort.{0} R) R₀) (@subtype.comm_ring R (@comm_ring.to_ring.{0} R _inst_1) _inst_1 R₀ _inst_4) I ⊢ topological_space.{0} R
Why can this even fail?
Because type class inference is not looking at your context, maybe?
Right... so how is it ever supposed to figure things out if it doesn't look at my context?
example (G : Type) : comm_group G → ∀ a b : G, a * b = b * a := begin admit end
failed to synthesize type class instance for G : Type, a : comm_group G, a b : G ⊢ has_mul G
The system doesn't look there
Shouldn't it?
That's not a question I'm qualified to answer
example (G : Type) [comm_group G] : ∀ a b : G, a * b = b * a := begin admit end
That works
the square brackets mean "add me to the type class inference system"
This feels extremely counterintuitive to me... after all, we go through pains to make sure there is only one instance of a class... so if there is one instance in my context there won't be any others. (I promise!)
However there are commands which explicitly add stuff to the type class inference system
@Johan Commelin What does set_option pp.all true
before that tell you?
Do you know about letI
?
Maybe search for that in the type class inference thread
Aha, I don't know about letI
.
I half-understand it
the main gotcha is that this is defined in mathlib
@Sean Leather I already have that set to true. You see it in the output.
so you have to import _some_ mathlib file before it works
Is this one of our mathematical promises playing up again?
stream:general topic:more+type+class+inference+issues leti
Kenny teaching me about letI in pretty much the same situation
Right, so I insert
by haveI := topological_space R; exact
in the middle of my definition, and it works. Ugly!
I totally agree that it is ugly
And they have no plans to change it in Lean 4
Mario wrote all this letI and exactI and haveI when Leo made some non-trivial changes which broke a lot of stuff
For some reason, liberal type class inference was making Lean slow
for his application
so he made it stricter
and then a whole bunch of mathlib broke
and if this letI hack hadn't worked
then it would not surprise me if mathlib would still be broken
On the other hand
I'm not sure you can have "mathematician inference"
I think we're too clever
If you can formalise some nice MWE of something which you feel would be nice if it worked but doesn't work
then you could ask Sebastian or Mario why it doesn't work
but I fear the answer might be
something like "if that worked, then this important file would take 100 years to compile"
But I'm not sure, what happened with the changes to type class inference is beyond my pay grade

EVENT HORIZON (1997) 95m.
It's not that EVENT HORIZON isn't well made. It's just that I've been there before. In fact, I'm hard pressed to think of another film more entirely fabricated of quotes from other movies. Barely five minutes into the story I found myself sidetracked with references from obvious candidates like ALIEN, LIFEFORCE, and 2010, but the quotespotting soon brought forth non-SF films such as DON'T LOOK NOW and THE SHINING, and culminated with SOLARIS and, God help me, Disney's THE BLACK HOLE.
Why is it - pardon the pun - that black hole movies always suck? It's a fascinating subject that still hasn't been treated right by Hollywood. In this case, the Event Horizon is not the rim of a black hole, but the name of a spaceship that reappears in Neptune's orbit after a seven year absence. But maybe it's really a non-Event Horizon. It's a Marie Celeste in Space scenario, the kind of story that early STAR TREK episodes bought the patent on years ago. To be fair, the opening scenes are writ large upon the screen, at least proving once again that SF cinema was the reason that Panavision was invented. The actors - Laurence Fishburne and Sam Neill head the cast - are all fine, the sets are great, the budget is big, there is some legitimate haunted-house atmosphere, a couple of gripping sequences, and at least one moment that made me laugh (when Fishburne decisively announces they're vacating the ship). But there are still holes in the plot, and I don't mean the black kind either, that keep the film from being solidly grounded: the abandonment of all scientific rationale (even Neill's pragmatic Doctor gives up) shows that the film-makers were less interested in explanation than effect. And, come to think of it, isn't there a crew member unaccounted for at the end?
It may not be the movie's fault. I guess I was expecting something more purely science-fictional, and instead got that SF-horror hybrid that seems to have consumed the genre of late. If I had seen EVENT HORIZON fifteen years ago I would have no doubt loved it. But you can only jump out of your seats from the same shock effects so many times, and after that there's not a lot left for a story to go on. Which is a shame, because I wanted to enjoy this film more than I did. Contrary to its title, EVENT HORIZON didn't take me into unchartered territory. The most unexpected thing about the ending was hearing a song by the Prodigy played over the final credits.

CIFAR 10¶
This example is a copy of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) exmample of Tensorflow. It does NOT work with a Complex database but uses this library Layers to test it’s correct behaviour.
Import stuff¶
[1]:
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from tensorflow.keras import datasets, models
import cvnn.layers as complex_layers # Ouw layers!
Download and prepare the CIFAR10 dataset¶
The CIFAR10 dataset contains 60,000 color images in 10 classes, with 6,000 images in each class. The dataset is divided into 50,000 training images and 10,000 testing images. The classes are mutually exclusive and there is no overlap between them.
[2]:
(train_images, train_labels), (test_images, test_labels) = datasets.cifar10.load_data()
# Normalize pixel values to be between 0 and 1
train_images, test_images = train_images.astype(dtype=np.float32) / 255.0, test_images.astype(dtype=np.float32) / 255.0
Verify the data¶
To verify that the dataset looks correct, let’s plot the first 25 images from the training set and display the class name below each image.
[3]:
class_names = ['airplane', 'automobile', 'bird', 'cat', 'deer',
'dog', 'frog', 'horse', 'ship', 'truck']
plt.figure(figsize=(10,10))
for i in range(25):
plt.subplot(5,5,i+1)
plt.xticks([])
plt.yticks([])
plt.grid(False)
plt.imshow(train_images[i], cmap=plt.cm.binary)
# The CIFAR labels happen to be arrays,
# which is why you need the extra index
plt.xlabel(class_names[train_labels[i][0]])
plt.show()
Create the convolutional base¶
By default, complex layers have complex dtype. A difference with Tensorflow example is that we must spicitly tell the layer to be real (float32
)
The 6 lines of code below define the convolutional base using a common pattern: a stack of Conv2D and MaxPooling2D layers.
As input, a CNN takes tensors of shape (image_height, image_width, color_channels), ignoring the batch size. If you are new to these dimensions, color_channels refers to (R,G,B). In this example, you will configure our CNN to process inputs of shape (32, 32, 3), which is the format of CIFAR images. You can do this by passing the argument input_shape to our first layer.
[4]:
model = models.Sequential()
model.add(complex_layers.ComplexConv2D(32, (3, 3), activation='cart_relu', input_shape=(32, 32, 3), dtype=np.float32))
model.add(complex_layers.ComplexMaxPooling2D((2, 2), dtype=np.float32))
model.add(complex_layers.ComplexConv2D(64, (3, 3), activation='relu', dtype=np.float32)) # Either tensorflow ' relu' or 'cart_relu' will work
model.add(complex_layers.ComplexMaxPooling2D((2, 2), dtype=np.float32))
model.add(complex_layers.ComplexConv2D(64, (3, 3), activation='cart_relu', dtype=np.float32))
Let’s display the architecture of our model so far.
[5]:
model.summary()
Model: "sequential"
_________________________________________________________________
Layer (type) Output Shape Param #
=================================================================
complex_conv2d (ComplexConv2 (None, 30, 30, 32) 896

=================================================================
Total params: 56,320
Trainable params: 56,320
Non-trainable params: 0
_________________________________________________________________
Above, you can see that the output of every Conv2D and MaxPooling2D layer is a 3D tensor of shape (height, width, channels). The width and height dimensions tend to shrink as you go deeper in the network. The number of output channels for each Conv2D layer is controlled by the first argument (e.g., 32 or 64). Typically, as the width and height shrink, you can afford (computationally) to add more output channels in each Conv2D layer.
Add Dense layers on top¶
To complete our model, you will feed the last output tensor from the convolutional base (of shape (4, 4, 64)) into one or more Dense layers to perform classification. Dense layers take vectors as input (which are 1D), while the current output is a 3D tensor. First, you will flatten (or unroll) the 3D output to 1D, then add one or more Dense layers on top. CIFAR has 10 output classes, so you use a final Dense layer with 10 outputs.

Evaluate the model¶
[9]:
plt.plot(history.history['accuracy'], label='accuracy')
plt.plot(history.history['val_accuracy'], label = 'val_accuracy')
plt.xlabel('Epoch')
plt.ylabel('Accuracy')
plt.ylim([0.5, 1])
plt.legend(loc='lower right')
test_loss, test_acc = model.evaluate(test_images, test_labels, verbose=2)
10000/10000 - 8s - loss: 0.8603 - accuracy: 0.7085
[10]:
print(f"{test_acc:.2%}")
70.85%
Our simple CNN has achieved a test accuracy of over 70%. Not bad for a few lines of code!

Below are links that lead to batches of Infinite Mario featuring different boredom/stress levels (game balancing).
You can jump to the next game of any batch by clicking the green CONCLUDE button at the bottom of the game page.
P.S. You DO NOT have to answer the questionnaires, just click SUBMIT.
- Refine levels according to last meeting;
- Levels are shorter;
- Replace several game assets with their correct SMW equivalents;
- Tweaked Mario movement (jump and run);
- Castle levels have reduced time to ensure subjects hear the huppy up call faster (increase stress);
- Game particles, e.g. dust and coin collection, are working properly;
- Space can be used to make Mario jump now;
- Make the game bigger on the screen;
- Level B1 is auto-scrolling;
- Instruction show "A" as the key to fireball;
- Mario run with arms wide open is working again;
- Show correct animation when Mario dies;
- Mario (vertical) speed has been reduced;
- Levels were completely redesigned (no more "enemy walls");
- If time goes below 60, a hurry up warning is played then level music plays faster;

5 Things Twitter Needs
Every since I’ve joined twitter back almost two years ago in March of 07, I’ve been tweeting on a regular basis.  In that sense, I think of Twitter not only as microblogging, but also as a great big open SMS conversation. Thanks to my followers, I’ve found tons of new sites, and equal amount of funny/interesting videos, and shared tons with lots of interesting people.
However, Twitter has it’s faults. If I had the power to change 5 things the service, changes would look something like this.
- Stable servers. The summer of 2008 was pretty rough for twitter, most likely because of a boom in member count and the increasing number of third party services that started to use the Twitter API (I'm thinking Twitpic, amongst others), the Twitter servers went through some serious problems. From what I understand, the app had some major scaling issues around that time, but I can't quite understand if it's a hardware thing or a Ruby on Rails thing. EIther way, the twitter server are much more reliable now than they were last summer, but I still occaisionally see the dreaded failwhale when searching or browsing some pages or using more advanced features.
- Groups. What's a social networking site without groups? What happens when somebody wants to follow a hundred or more people, and keep track of all the tweets in a organized way? Group pages would allow me to see just the tweets of the group members, while would simplifying mass following. Similar to the @reply system, users could post an update to a group by typing *group before their tweet to post to that specific group.
- Proper implementation of the tagging system. The #topic system is widely used, but it seems that putting in the #topic tags has no effect on search results. If I search for "cats", I get all entries containing "cats" and "#cats", yeilding irrevelant search results in some scenarios. #topic tags also shouldn't be a part of the already very limited 140 character limits. Tags should be splitted in two groups: #tags which are visible, which can be used in the following situations:
Check out my new #bmx wheelset!
And ##tags, which would be invisible in the tweet's text, but that would still tag the post with ##whatever. #tags and ##tags could also link to a page where all recent tweets tagged with the concerned text, and could also include a neat little tag cloud. - A built-in video or photo/video viewer. Twitpic is becoming increasingly popular since the advent of the iPhone, and I can't recall the number of Youtube videos that have been linked to me from tweets, so the next logical step is to add some sort of AJAX picture and video viewer right onto the twitter home page, as to reduce load times for the end user. Heck, even a pop-up system like those found on forums would be nice, but one thing's for sure, many users would greatly benefit from not having to load another page to view a picture or video.
- A properly implemented search function. Although there is a search function, I find it somewhat discreet. The only link to the search function is on the bottom of profile pages, so I'm guessing that very little people know that it exists. What I'd like to see is search boxes on the right sidebar on each and every page. On profile pages, a "Search user updates" bar, on future group pages, a "Search group updates" bar, you get the idea. Then, the #tag system could actually be used for something.
