Debezium Server
|
This feature is currently in incubating state, i.e. exact semantics, configuration options etc. may change in future revisions, based on the feedback we receive. Please let us know if you encounter any problems while using this feature. Also please reach out if you have requirements for specific sinks to be supported by Debezium Server or even would be interested in contributing the required implementation. |
Debezium provides a ready-to-use application that streams change events from a source database to messaging infrastructure like Amazon Kinesis, Google Cloud Pub/Sub or Apache Pulsar. For streaming change events to Apache Kafka, it is recommended to deploy the Debezium connectors via Kafka Connect.
Installation
To install the server download and unpack the server distribution archive:
A directory named debezium-server
will be created with these contents:
debezium-server/
|-- CHANGELOG.md
|-- conf
|-- CONTRIBUTE.md
|-- COPYRIGHT.txt
|-- debezium-server-1.2.5.Final-runner.jar
|-- lib
|-- LICENSE-3rd-PARTIES.txt
|-- LICENSE.txt
|-- README.md
`-- run.sh
The server is started using run.sh
script, dependencies are stored in the lib
directory, and the directory conf
contains configuration files.
Configuration
Debezium Server uses MicroProfile Configuration for configuration. This means that the application can be configured from disparate sources like configuration files, environment variables, system properties etc.
The main configuration file is conf/application.properties. There are multiple sections configured:
-
debezium.source
is for source connector configuration; each instance of Debezium Server runs exactly one connector -
debezium.sink
is for the sink system configuration -
debezium.format
is for the output serialization format configuration -
debezium.transforms
is for the configuration of message transformations
An example configuration file can look like so:
debezium.sink.type=kinesis debezium.sink.kinesis.region=eu-central-1 debezium.source.connector.class=io.debezium.connector.postgresql.PostgresConnector debezium.source.offset.storage.file.filename=data/offsets.dat debezium.source.offset.flush.interval.ms=0 debezium.source.database.hostname=localhost debezium.source.database.port=5432 debezium.source.database.user=postgres debezium.source.database.password=postgres debezium.source.database.dbname=postgres debezium.source.database.server.name=tutorial debezium.source.schema.whitelist=inventory
When the server is started it generates a seqeunce of log messages like this:
__ ____ __ _____ ___ __ ____ ______ --/ __ \/ / / / _ | / _ \/ //_/ / / / __/ -/ /_/ / /_/ / __ |/ , _/ ,< / /_/ /\ \ --\___\_\____/_/ |_/_/|_/_/|_|\____/___/ 2020-05-15 11:33:12,189 INFO [io.deb.ser.kin.KinesisChangeConsumer] (main) Using 'io.debezium.server.kinesis.KinesisChangeConsumer$$Lambda$119/0x0000000840130c40@f58853c' stream name mapper 2020-05-15 11:33:12,628 INFO [io.deb.ser.kin.KinesisChangeConsumer] (main) Using default KinesisClient 'software.amazon.awssdk.services.kinesis.DefaultKinesisClient@d1f74b8' 2020-05-15 11:33:12,628 INFO [io.deb.ser.DebeziumServer] (main) Consumer 'io.debezium.server.kinesis.KinesisChangeConsumer' instantiated 2020-05-15 11:33:12,754 INFO [org.apa.kaf.con.jso.JsonConverterConfig] (main) JsonConverterConfig values: converter.type = key decimal.format = BASE64 schemas.cache.size = 1000 schemas.enable = true 2020-05-15 11:33:12,757 INFO [org.apa.kaf.con.jso.JsonConverterConfig] (main) JsonConverterConfig values: converter.type = value decimal.format = BASE64 schemas.cache.size = 1000 schemas.enable = false 2020-05-15 11:33:12,763 INFO [io.deb.emb.EmbeddedEngine$EmbeddedConfig] (main) EmbeddedConfig values: access.control.allow.methods = access.control.allow.origin = admin.listeners = null bootstrap.servers = [localhost:9092] client.dns.lookup = default config.providers = [] connector.client.config.override.policy = None header.converter = class org.apache.kafka.connect.storage.SimpleHeaderConverter internal.key.converter = class org.apache.kafka.connect.json.JsonConverter internal.value.converter = class org.apache.kafka.connect.json.JsonConverter key.converter = class org.apache.kafka.connect.json.JsonConverter listeners = null metric.reporters = [] metrics.num.samples = 2 metrics.recording.level = INFO metrics.sample.window.ms = 30000 offset.flush.interval.ms = 0 offset.flush.timeout.ms = 5000 offset.storage.file.filename = data/offsets.dat offset.storage.partitions = null offset.storage.replication.factor = null offset.storage.topic = plugin.path = null rest.advertised.host.name = null rest.advertised.listener = null rest.advertised.port = null rest.extension.classes = [] rest.host.name = null rest.port = 8083 ssl.client.auth = none task.shutdown.graceful.timeout.ms = 5000 topic.tracking.allow.reset = true topic.tracking.enable = true value.converter = class org.apache.kafka.connect.json.JsonConverter 2020-05-15 11:33:12,763 INFO [org.apa.kaf.con.run.WorkerConfig] (main) Worker configuration property 'internal.key.converter' is deprecated and may be removed in an upcoming release.

Source configuration
The source configuration uses the same configuration properties that are described on the specific connector documentation pages (just with debezium.source
prefix), together with few more specific ones, necessary for running outside of Kafka Connect:
Property |
Default |
Description |
The name of the Java class implementing the source connector. |
||
The file in which connector offsets are stored for non-Kafka deployments. |
||
Defines how frequently the offsets are flushed into the file. |
||
|
Some of the connectors (e.g MySQL, SQL Server, Db2, Oracle) monitors the database schema evolution over the time and stores the data in database history. This is by default based on Kafka. There are also other options available
|
|
The name and location of the file to which |
Format configuration
The message output format can be configured for both key and value separately.
By default the output is in JSON format but an arbitrary implementation of Kafka Connect’s Converter
can be used.
Property |
Default |
Description |
|
The name of the output format for key, one of |
|
Configuration properties passed to the key converter. |
||
|
The name of the output format for value, one of |
|
Configuration properties passed to the value converter. |
Transformation configuration
Before the messages are delivered to the sink, they can run through a sequence of transformations. The server supports single message transformations defined by Kafka Connect. The configuration will need to contain the list of transformations, implementation class for each transformation and configuration options for each of the transformations.
Property |
Default |
Description |
|
The comma separated list of symbolic names of transformations. |
|
|
The name of Java class implementing the transformation with name |
|
|
Configuration properties passed to the transformation with name |
Addtional configuration
Debezium Server runs on top Quarkus framework. All configuration options exposed by Quarkus are available in Debezium Server too. The most frequent used are:
Property |
Default |
Description |
|
8080 |
The port on which Debezim exposes Microprofile Health endpoint and other exposed status information. |
Sink configuration
Sink configuration is specific for each sink type. Currently the only supported sinks are Amazon Kinesis and Google Cloud Pub/Sub.
The sink is selected by configuration property debezium.sink.type
.
Amazon Kinesis
Amazon Kinesis is an implementation of data streaming system with support for stream sharding and other techniques for high scalability. Kinesis exposes a set of REST APIs and provides a (not-only) Java SDK that is used to implement the sink.
Property |
Default |
Description |
Must be set to |
||
A region name in which the Kinesis target streams are provided. |
||
|
A credentials profile name used to communicate with Amazon API. |
|
|
Kinesis does not support the notion of messages without key. So this string will be used as message key for messages from tables without primary key. |
Injection points
The Kinesis sink behaviour can be modified by a custom logic providing alternative implementations for specific functionalities. When the alternative implementations are not available then the default ones are used.
Interface |
CDI classifier |
Description |
|
Custom configured instance of a |
|
Custom implementation maps the planned destination (topic) name into a physical Kinesis stream name. By default the same name is used. |
Google Cloud Pub/Sub
Google Cloud Pub/Sub is an implementation of messaging/eventing system designed for scalable batch and stream processing applications. Pub/Sub exposes a set of REST APIs and provides a (not-only) Java SDK that is used to implement the sink.
Property |
Default |
Description |
Must be set to |
||
system-wide default project id |
A project name in which the target topics are created. |
|
|
Pub/Sub can optionally use a message key to guarantee the delivery of the messages in the same order as were sent for messages with the same order key. This feature can be disabled. |
|
|
Tables without primary key sends messages with |
Injection points
The Pub/Sub sink behaviour can be modified by a custom logic providing alternative implementations for specific functionalities. When the alternative implementations are not available then the default ones are used.
Interface |
CDI classifier |
Description |
|
A class that provides custom configured instance of a |
|
Custom implementation maps the planned destination (topic) name into a physical Pub/Sub topic name. By default the same name is used. |
Apache Pulsar
Apache Pulsar is high-performance, low-latency server for server-to-server messaging. Pulsar exposes a REST APIs and a native endopint provides a (not-only) Java client that is used to implement the sink.
| Property | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
Must be set to |
||
The Pulsar module supports pass-through configuration.
The client configuration properties are passed to the client with the prefix removed.
At least |
||
The Pulsar module supports pass-through configuration.
The message producer configuration properties are passed to the producer with the prefix removed.
The |
||
|
Tables without primary key sends messages with |
Extensions
Debezium Server uses the Quarkus framework and relies on dependency injection to enable developer to extend its behaviour. Note that only the JVM mode of Quarkus is supported, but not native execution via GraalVM. The server can be extended in two ways by providing a custom logic:
-
implementation of a new sink
-
customization of an existing sink - i.e. non-standard configuration
Implementation of a new sink
The new sink can be implemented as a CDI bean implementing interface DebeziumEngine.ChangeConsumer
and with annotation @Named
and unique name and scope @Dependent
.
The name of the bean is used as the debezium.sink.type
option.
The sink needs to read the configuration using Microprofile Config API. The execution path must pass the messages into the target system and regularly commit the passed/processed messages.
See the Kinesis sink implementation for further details.
Customization of an existing sink
Some of the sinks exposes dependency injections points that enable users to provide its own bean that would modify the behaviour of the sink. Typical examples are fine tuning of the target client setup, the destination naming etc.
See an example of a custom topic naming policy implementation for further details.


Kentucky Judge Accused Of Having Threesomes With Staff in Courthouse
by VladTVAccording to reports, a Kentucky judge named Dawn Gentry has been accused of pressuring lawyers into having threesomes with her and a pastor who used to be her lover.
Allegedly, Gentry would not give the lawyers preferential treatment in their cases if they denied her request. The Kentucky Judicial Conduct Commission alleged that Gentry used Snapchat to flirt with lawyers, and Gentry has also been accused of letting employees get drunk while on the job.
The 38-year old judge has denied the allegations against her so far. Stay tuned for more details in this situation.

TIME REGAINED (Temps Retrouvé, Le) (director/writer: Raúl Ruiz; screenwriters: from book by Marcel Proust "Remembrance Of Things Past"/Gilles Taurand; cinematographer: Ricardo Aronovich; editor: Denise de Casabianca; cast: Marcello Mazzarella (Proust), Emmanuelle Béart (Gilberte), Vincent Perez (Morel), John Malkovich (Baron de Charlus), Catherine Deneuve (Odette), Pascal Greggory (Robert Saint-Loup), Marie-France Pisier (Madame Verdurin), Chiara Mastroianni (Albertine), Arielle Dombasle (Madame De Farch), Christian Vadim (Bloch), Elsa Zylberstein (Rachel), Edith Scob (Oriane de Guermantes), Dominique Labourier (Madame Cottard), Alain Robbe-Grillet (Goncourt), Mathilde Seigner (Celeste); Runtime: 158; Kino International/Gemini/Canal Plus; 1999-Fr./It./Port.)
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
A visually playful version of Marcel Proust's epic "Remembrance Of Things Past," which only covers the last volume of a lengthy multi-volume book; but, continually makes references to other parts of the book not covered in the film. The film is almost incomprehensible without reading the book, as there's no time to introduce all of the story line and characters (though an attempt was made to introduce the main characters, as the dying Proust puts a magnifying glass to the photos in his collection that bring back his memories); for those who are not readers of the book this is not a substitute for the book, but a work that, nevertheless, lives on its own merits. To expect anything to be less than opaque from an undertaking of such a difficult work to adapt to the screen is, perhaps, asking too much of anyone. To ask it of Raul Ruiz, the stylish, surrealist Chilean exiled director, now a citizen of France, is asking him to do what has never done before. In a Ruiz film one must expect a work that is obscure and mysterious. That this combination avant garde art film and literary period drama is successful in its bold attempt to go where most other filmmakers fear to go, into the labyrinthian world of Proust's dying era during the early part of the 20th century and to come away with a work of such dreamlike beauty, is simply an amazing feat. It's a film that doesn't necessarily tell a story, but brings you instead to the conclusion of "Remembrance Of Things Past" in an unforgettably eccentric way.
Proust's work is about the eternal nature of memory, as the opening scene takes you into his cork-lined bedroom, where he is ill in bed feverishly writing or dictating to the maid Celeste who is caring for him; he is in rush to complete his writings, as he expects to die soon. Proust will be played by all the following: with Marcello Mazzarella (the Italian actor is a dead-ringer for Proust) as `Marcel' in the main role, Andre Engel as `old Marcel,' Jean Leger as the actor who dubs Engel, Georges du Fresne as `Marcel as a child,' Pierre Mignard as `Marcel as an adolescent,' and director and actor Patrice Chereau as `the voice of Marcel Proust.'
In this dying atmosphere Marcel will revisit his past, as the film is not linear so we will see him as he was throughout his life -- from a youngster to middle-aged to his present condition -- at any time during the film.  In these memories he will reminds us, that to remember the past is to experience its loss; the writer will act as our guide into his fictional and real world: telling about such things as: his yearnings, his fears, his feelings on death and love, the behavior of high class society, and about the gossip and betrayals among his friends.
The film is made up of a succession of formal social gatherings in palatial homes through which finely dressed women gossip wearing either brocades or fashionable feathers sticking out of their hair; while the formally dressed men parade around in the ballroom with the look of contented bulls; the film's most artistic image is of the men's upturned top hats covering the floor of an ornate waiting room. The time period for most of the action is during WW1 (1914-18).
Marcel remembers Paris as a time of suffering from asthma, where he wanders the deserted night streets because of the curfew. In one of the decadent scenes he comes out of the night to rest and chooses to stay at a male bordello, Palais des Felicites, where he spies the perverse Baron Charlus (Malkovich) seducing young men to whip him. He chats with the attractive Gilberte (Béart) when she returns alone to Tansonville to check out her chateau after the death of her bi-sexual husband Saint-Loup (Greggory) at the front. Marcel has always loved her because she made him believe he was capable of loving others, something he wasn't sure he was capable of doing. She's the daughter of his old friend Odette (Deneuve), someone he has a special fondness for. He meets the flirtatious violinist Morel (Perez), who is an army deserter, when he's hiding in a dinghy hotel. Marcel talks with him about his strained love relationship with the Baron, where now Morel despises him. And through his conversations with the ghosts he conjures up on his deathbed, he relates how hard the war was on all those he knew. We are treated to funerals as spectacles that look oddly enough like convivial affairs. Marcel finds refuge in his childhood memories to escape the horror stories around him. Madame Verdurin (Pisier) appears giddy and controlling at her parties, the ones Marcel seems to recall best. In one party scene Madame Verdurin notices that Odette appears and Verdurin objects to a lady friend: "What's she doing here? How does the repeatedly married Odette dare to show her face in this reception, especially now that her looks are gone?" Madame Verdurin's companion replies: "But you're wrong, Odette looks ravashing."
The film is loaded with surprises, as Ruiz uses Proust in the film to meditate on how he would have used the film if he were to film his epic instead of write it. There are all sorts of camera tricks used: shots frozen in time, imitations of how the filmmakers of that time period shot their films, and the past and present fuse sometimes together in a surrealistic way. In Proustian logic, one can be old and young at the same time.
It's an ambitious project, enhanced by its starry cast, filled with splendid visuals and tidbits from conversations that don't linger long, as the film moves intractably into the poetical. It's Proust you're getting, but from a daring perspective. This is not a film to see only once. It is also a rare film, that shouldn't be missed, even if it's messy and one is apt to get lost in its decadent mood swings and enthralling aristocratic atmosphere. The film just feels right for either the reader of the novel as I was some 30 years ago who was trying to recall what I could from the book as I watched, or the novice to Proust who might just be entertained by what he or she sees on the screen. There are some who claim that this is the best written novel of the 20th century, and it very well might be! This film works, despite being able to only capture the book in spirit but not in its whole. But there is no doubt about one thing, this is what good filmmaking is about!

Murder of former JUTC chairman was a contract killing, witness testifies
Nickoy Wilson, Gleaner Writer
In a startling revelation, a self-proclaimed former gang member this afternoon testified that the 2008 murder of then Jamaica Urban Transit Company (JUTC) Chairman Douglas Chamber was a contract killing.
The witness, who has been incarcerated at a maximum-security prison for the last two years on a murder conviction, said this was told to him by accused Tesha Miller.
The court has ordered that the witness’ name should not be published.
Miller is being tried for accessory before and after the fact to Chambers' murder in the Home Circuit Court in downtown Kingston.
The witness, who yesterday testified that he was a member of the Spanish Town-based Clansman Gang, today told the court that on the morning of the incident he was instructed by Miller to hand over two guns to a crony named ‘Blackman’ who has now been identified as Andre Bryan.
Yesterday, the witness testified that ‘Blackman’ was ordered by Miller to carry out the killing.
According to the witness, on the day in question, he and other men stood at a stall across from the JUTC depot in Spanish Town, St Catherine.
He said while there, Bryan and another man only identified as ‘Brucky’ drove up in a motor vehicle and waited for Chambers.
The JUTC chairman, the witness said, came to the entrance of the depot where he was smoking a cigarette and Bryan and ‘Brucky’ opened fire shooting him.
The trial will continue tomorrow.

Creating a Study Structure¶
Introduction¶
Most clinical MRI studies are well defined before they are started and follow a basic design pattern based on the following criteria:
- number of participants
- number of visits
- control/participant groups
- MRI protocols
- persons working on the study, radiographers, principal investigator, post-docs
- data analysis
- final report generation
Therefore, one can design a data directory structure based on this knowledge and fill it in beforehand with place-holder files for the subsequent data analysis. This idea has been developed by people studying the brain and aids with data sharing and multi-site projects as data can be expected to be in certain directories. For more information see their web-site http://bids.neuroimaging.io/. We have attempted to follow their ideas for use in analysing T2 data via EPG methods.
The principle idea is to describe the study and data directory structure in a study template file which can be used by the data analysis software to verify the study and the results. The study template file is typically a YAML or JSON file that is a human readable text file that is structured in a way that it can be read in by programs written in python for example to create a dictionary structure that describes the project and data directory.
Advantages to this approach are many and become more numerous and beneficial with time.
- controlled vocabulary of description words for use in file names
- automated generation of file names
- automated generation of template files, for example Region of Interest files
- defined directory structure to store original data and result files
- similar studies use the same template directory structure and file-naming conventions
- long time studies can be be easily understood in terms of where things are
- processing scripts can be simplified and used between similar but different studies
- changes in personnel working on the study can be tracked over time
Study Description File¶
The study description file contains different types of information:
- details of the study
- study name
- number of participants in the study
- number of visits
- participants grouped in terms of healthy controls and patients and sub-groups based on the number of visits
- information on staff involved in the study, name, email, job description
- the MRI protocols used
- protocols used, T2, dixon, diffusion

AWS Assessment
Q1. You have an application using a 100 GB MySQL database that you are migrating into AWS. What should you consider when deciding between whether to host the database on RDS for MySQL or Aurora?
- [ ] cost
- [ ] ease of maintenance vs. granularity of control
- [x] all of these answers
- [ ] the current storage engine used by the application, such as InnoDB or MyISAM
Q2. Which database is a NoSQL database type that can quickly store and retrieve key-value pairs?
- [ ] Aurora
- [ ] Neptune
- [ ] ORDS for MySQL
- [x] DynamoDB
- [ ] Use the RDS console to force a reboot of the database instance so that the primary server becomes the master server again.
- [ ] The server running the .NET utilities is caching the DNS lookup on the database cluster address. Flush the DNS cache of the server and force the C# utilities to open new connections to the database.
- [ ] A.NET application will retain the IP address of a connection string until the host machine is rebooted.
- [x] The NET utilities need to change the SQL Server endpoint in the connection strings to read from the secondary database server using a try/catch.
Q4. What AWS services can help you automate your development pipeline for continuous integration and continuous deployment?
- [ ] CodePipeline
- [ ] CodeDeploy
- [x] all of these answers
- [ ] CodeBuild
Q5. Which AWS service complies with the standards outlined in Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Level 1 for the handling and transmission of credit card data?
- [ ] API Gateway
- [x] all of these answers
- [ ] Simple Queue Service (SOS)
- [ ] Kinesis Data Streams
Q6. You have a large amount of files on your network-attached storage array that must be archived and maintained for a period of 10 years due to industry regulations. This data will be infrequently accessed but must be kept What is the best AWS service for storing this data?
- [ ] EFS
- [ ] Snowball
- [ ] OEBS
- [x] S3 Glacier
Q7. For your AWS root account, you have generated a random password of the maximum allowed length and included special characters. Which additional steps should you take to secure your AWS root account?
- [ ] Create an AM role for the account administrator with the highest privileges. Do not store the root password, but when the root account is needed reset the password on the root account via email confirmation and repeat this procedure.
- [ ] Store your randomly generated password in your organizational secrets database using a service such as 1Password or LastPass, and only grant access to this secret to the DevOps team.
- [ ] Create IAM accounts for your administrators and attach the AdministratorAccess policy to their accounts. Disable the root account in the user settings.
- [x] Create an IAM role for the account administrator with the highest privileges and do not use the root account in day-today operations. Enable two-factor authentication on the root account
Q8. Which Elastic Load Balancing option supports Lambda as a target?
- [ ] Network Load Balancer
- [ ] Lambda can not be called directly by incoming web requests. You must use API Gateway.
- [ ] Classic Load Balancer
- [x] Application Load Balancer
Q9. How do you architect a solution for an SQL Server database to be replicated across AWS regions in an active-active architecture?
- [ ] Use RDS for SQL Server and create the same instance in two different regions. Use Database Migration Service to keep each database in sync.
- [ ] Use a VPN or VPC peering to establish a connection between the VPCs in each region. Install SOL Server Enterprise Edition on EC2 instances in each region and configure an Always On availability group.
- [ ] Use RDS for SQL Server 2016 or 2017 Enterprise Edition. Enable Multi-AZ support and select the Mirroring/Always On option. Select another region for the mirroring option
- [ ] You can not set up an active-active architecture for SQL Server that spans geographic regions.
Q10. What does it cost to launch an EC2 instance from the AWS Marketplace?
- [ ] All images in the AWS Marketplace incur additional hourly fees in addition to the charges from the instance size you select.
- [ ] You can only launch images that were created by other users on your AWS account, so you pay only for the instance size you select and the S3 storage costs for the base image.
- [x] Each image has its own pricing that could either be free, or include charges for software licensing costs. You will also pay for the instance the image runs on
- [ ] All images in the AWS Marketplace contain only open-source software with no additional fees and are created by other AWS users. You will pay only for the instance size you select.
Q11. When using an ECS cluster with EC2 instances, what maintenance tasks should you perform on the EC2s?
- [ ] The instances created by ECS do not have patches that need to be applied; however you should make sure your containers contain any important security updates,
- [ ] Refresh the cluster with instances built from the latest ECS AML
- [ ] ECS clusters do not use EC2 instances.
- [ ] You should not directly manipulate the EC2 instances created by ECS. AWS will automatically update these instances.
Q12. What in-memory caching server is not supported by ElastiCache?
- [ ] Redis 5
- [ ] Memcached
- [x] Elasticsearch
- [ ] Redis 3
Q13. Which AWS service can be used to help generate the documentation required by various compliance standards, such as Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) Level 1 for the handling of credit card data?
- [x] Artifact
- [ ] DocumentDB
- [ ] Print out the AWS Compliance summary and keep it with your required documentation for an audit.
- [ ] Secrets Manager
Q14. When using AWS for research and development ahead of a planned migration, how do you prevent unexpected increases or spikes in the billing?
- [ ] Use the billing dashboard to create a cost budget. Input the max amount you want to be charged each month. Any charges that occur over this amount will cause AWS to automatically suspend those resources
- [ ] Using the root AWS account, activate IAM access to the billing information for the account. Make sure your IAM users have the Billing FullAccessGroup policy. Then from the billing dashboard, check the accrued charges once a day.
- [ ] If you are using the AWS free tier, you will have to confirm the usage of any service that goes over the AWS free tier limits.
- [x] Using the root AWS account enable Billing Alerts in the user preferences. Then use CloudWatch to create a billing alarm and set a threshold to a specific dollar amount for your estimated monthly charges.
Q15. You are creating a DynamoDB table to store all movies that have been released since 1938. Your application will allow users to search by movie title and see the details of that film. Given the sample below showing the movie data that you will be importing, what is the best set of keys to apply to this table?
{
"title":"The Avengers",
"year": 2012,
"cast" : ["Mark Ruffalo", "Robert Downey, Jr."],
"genres" : ["Action"]
}
- [ ] The primary key should be a partition key of the title field.
- [ ] The primary key should be the title field and the partition key should be the genres field.
- [ ] The primary key should be a composite key comprised of a partition key on the title field and a sort key on the year field.
- [x] The primary key should be created as a completely unique value, such a sequential numerical list of movie IDs. The partition key should be title field for fast lookup.
- [ ] ORDS for Oracle
- [ ] Redshift
- [ ] Neptune
- [x] DynamoDB
Q17. You need a schemaless database. Which Amazon database service provides that solution?
- [ ] ORDS

- [ ] OSMS text message
- [ ] push notification
- [ ] email
- [x] automated phone call
Q19. When designing a serverless web application using Lambda, what key concept must you factor into your design?
- [ ] Serverless web applications run within the web browser of the user, so you will need to store any data the user changes directly in a database.
- [ ] Lambda only allows you to write functions in JavaScript
- [ ] Lambda does not use servers, so it can only return the same request to every user,
- [x] Lambda is stateless, so it won’t remember who a user is in between requests
Q20. A principle of DevOps is to view infrastructure as code. Which AWS service allows you to script your AWS infrastructure?
- [ ] CloudTrail
- [x] CloudFormation
- [ ] AWS Config
- [ ] AWS Service Catalog
Q21. You created a Windows EC2 instance with a public IP address and installed SQL Server. When attempting to connect to SQL Server from SQL Server Enterprise Manager on your local computer, the Windows EC2 instance is unable to establish a connection to the server. What is the first thing you should check?
- [ ] Check the routing tables for the VPC.
- [x] Verify that the assigned security groups allow TCP port 1433 traffic from your current IP address.
- [ ] Check the policies within Windows Firewall
- [ ] Verify that you are connecting to the instance using a user that is not sa.
- [ ] The rule that exposes TCP ports 3380-3390 would also publicly expose port 3389 (RDP) to the entire internet. Write separate rules to only expose the needed ports.
- [ ] The first security group rule allows all traffic into this instance. Exposing your entire instance to the whole internet leaves the server open to various attacks of the other services running on different port numbers.
- [ ] Verify that the AWS account owners actually control the entire CIDR C block for <IP_ADDRESS>-255 and these are secured IPs for RDP access into this instance.
- [ ] There are no recommendations to make.
Q23. You have four front-end web servers behind a load balancer, which use NFS to access another EC2 instance that resizes and stores images for the front-end application. What security group policies should be assigned to these servers?
- [ ] Assign Elastic IPs to all of the instances and create a group that allows all traffic to pass between each of the five Elastic IP addresses and allow all inbound HTTPS traffic.
- [x] Front-end web servers should allow HTTPS. Assign another group to all of the instances that allows all traffic to pass between instances using that group.
- [ ] Create a security group that allows inbound NFS, HTTP, and HTTPS traffic from all IP addresses. Apply this group to all of the servers.
- [ ] Create a security group that allows inbound HTTP and HTTPS traffic from all IP addresses and apply this to the web servers. Create a second security group for the NFS filestore that allows outbound NFS traffic to the private IP range of the front-end web servers.
Q24. You have a Linux EC2 web server that suddenly is timing out on all HTTP requests and your SSH connection attempts are timing out. You notice that it is failing the system status check in the EC2 console. What action should you take?
- [х] Restore the instance from the last AMI image. System status checks indicate that the filesystem on the instance is corrupted.
- [ ] Stop and start the instance. This will move the instance to another host.
- [ ] Contact AWS support. Failing a system status check indicates a failure in the underlying hardware and must be addressed by an AWS representative.
- [ ] Reboot the instance. This will stop and start the instance and move it to another host.
Q25. You have several on-premise servers and would like to store your offsite backups on AWS. What fully managed backup service can you use to ship your backups to AWS?
- [ ] Windows Server 2016 supports S3 as a target when using storage replicas.
- [х] Use Storage Gateway.
- [ ] Sync files directly to S3 with the AWS CLI.
- [ ] Use the RDS console to force a reboot of the database instance so that the primary server becomes the master server again.
Q26. What is the best practice for creating a highly available PostgreSQL database in RDS that can sustain the loss of a single AWS region?
- [ ] PostgreSQL cannot be replicated across regions. Restore the database backups from an S3 bucket and repoint your database connections to the new instance.
- [х] Create Read Replicas in other AWS regions. You can designate a new master database from any of the read replicas until the regional failure is resolved.
- [ ] Verify that your instance is configured for Multi-AZ support. Database changes will be automatically synced to another region in the event of a failure and RDS will automatically select a new master until the regional failure is resolved.
- [ ] Create Read Replicas in other AWS regions. Ensure read operations against the database occur on an available Read Replica, and send write operations to another region if you need to promote a Read Replica to a standalone database if the master is down.
Q27. You created a new Linux EC2 instance and installed PostgreSQL but you are not able to establish a connection to the server from your local computer. What steps do you take to resolve this issue?
- [x] Create a security group rule that allows all traffic from <IP_ADDRESS>/0. This will verify whether or not another rule is denying the traffic.
- [ ] Verify that the assigned security groups allow traffic from your IP address to port 5432. Verify that PostgreSQL is configured to listen to external traffic and is bound to the public interface.
- [ ] Make sure that you are using an Elastic IP and that it is included within the
postgresql.conf
configuration file.
- [ ] Stop and start the instance. New security group rules will only take effect after a restart.
Q28. What does the statement body of this S3 bucket policy do?
- [ ] bucketpolicy1 allows any user to perform any action on the objects in the userreports bucket, but limits the objects to read-only permissions for anyone coming from <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> - except <IP_ADDRESS>.
- [ ] bucketpolicy1 allows any user coming from the IP range of <IP_ADDRESS> to access objects in the userreports bucket and denies access to <IP_ADDRESS>.
- [ ] bucketpolicy1 allows any user to perform any action on the objects in the userreports bucket - except anyone coming from the IP of <IP_ADDRESS>.
- [x] bucketpolicy1 allows any user coming from the IP range of <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> to access objects in the userreports bucket-except anyone coming from the IP of <IP_ADDRESS>.

TNCC likely to seek a few Mayoral seats in civic polls
by Special CorrespondentThe Tamil Nadu Congress Committee would seek Mayoral seats from its alliance partners in the upcoming local body polls, besides other seats that would be identified through discussions, TNCC president K.S. Alagiri said.
On Sunday, the party’s election committee met to decide the modalities to fight the local body polls. “The district presidents are touring the districts and getting feedback from the cadre. Those who are interested in fighting the polls could submit their applications to the DCC (District Congress Committee) presidents from November 20 to 23,” Mr. Alagiri said.
When asked if the party would seek Mayoral seats from the DMK, the TNCC president said the allocation of seats would have to be decided on after a meeting with alliance partners once the elections are announced. The Congress will be seeking Mayoral seats as well, he added.
“Just like how money played a big role in the recently-concluded bypolls to two Assembly constituencies [Nanguneri and Vikravandi], the ruling party will try to influence the local body polls through money power,” he said.

| ar.ols {stats} | R Documentation |
Fit an autoregressive time series model to the data by ordinary least squares, by default selecting the complexity by AIC.
ar.ols(x, aic = TRUE, order.max = NULL, na.action = na.fail, demean = TRUE, intercept = demean, series, ...)
x |
A univariate or multivariate time series. |
aic |
Logical flag. If |
order.max |
Maximum order (or order) of model to fit. Defaults to 10*log10(N) where N is the number of observations. |
na.action |
function to be called to handle missing values. |
demean |

intercept |
should a separate intercept term be fitted? |
series |
names for the series. Defaults to

... |
further arguments to be passed to or from methods. |
ar.ols
fits the general AR model to a possibly non-stationary
and/or multivariate system of series x
. The resulting
unconstrained least squares estimates are consistent, even if
some of the series are non-stationary and/or co-integrated.
For definiteness, note that the AR coefficients have the sign in
(x[t] - m) = a[0] + a[1]*(x[t-1] - m) + … + a[p]*(x[t-p] - m) + e[t]
where a[0] is zero unless intercept
is true, and
m is the sample mean if demean
is true, zero
otherwise.
Order selection is done by AIC if aic
is true. This is
problematic, as ar.ols
does not perform
true maximum likelihood estimation. The AIC is computed as if
the variance estimate (computed from the variance matrix of the
residuals) were the MLE, omitting the determinant term from the
likelihood. Note that this is not the same as the Gaussian
likelihood evaluated at the estimated parameter values.
Some care is needed if intercept
is true and demean
is
false. Only use this is the series are roughly centred on
zero. Otherwise the computations may be inaccurate or fail entirely.
A list of class "ar"
with the following elements:
order |
The order of the fitted model. This is chosen by
minimizing the AIC if |
ar |
Estimated autoregression coefficients for the fitted model. |
var.pred |
The prediction variance: an estimate of the portion of the variance of the time series that is not explained by the autoregressive model. |
x.mean |
The estimated mean (or zero if |
x.intercept |
The intercept in the model for
|
aic |
The differences in AIC between each model and the
best-fitting model. Note that the latter can have an AIC of |
n.used |
The number of observations in the time series. |
order.max |
The value of the |
partialacf |

Joe Gomez pulls out of England squad ahead of Kosovo clash
Joe Gomez and Jordan Henderson have pulled out of England’s squad ahead of Sunday’s fixture against Kosovo.
‘Jordan Henderson will miss England’s final UEFA EURO 2020 qualifier in Kosovo on Sunday,’ a statement from the FA read.
‘Henderson arrived in camp with a viral infection that has not fully cleared.
‘Meanwhile, his Liverpool team-mate Gomez sustained a knock in training on Friday and has not recovered sufficiently enough to travel.
‘The pair now returned to their club meaning the Three Lions will head to Pristina on Saturday with a 23-man squad.’


$[Symbols, T:QuantConnect.Symbol] are a way to identify an asset uniquely. They are objects which contain all the information required to identify a security without needing external references or proprietary database look-ups. Symbols were implemented in the LEAN open-source project as a way to identify or "finger-print" tradable assets so that no further database look-up is required.
All QuantConnect and LEAN Algorithm API methods use Symbols to identify the asset for trading.


In Battro’s essay, he mainly discusses the significance and implication of the great transformation of art. First, the idea of this relationship between museum and the art work is very eye catching. It seems nowadays that museum become the sole owner for the art of the public. So in someway how museum displays a piece of art work determine the trajectory of the future of art. I think another very important point from Battro’s essay is that the presentation of art by museum does not always align with how art was originally portrayed (the history of the art work).
Then the author talks about the concept that art is always updating, it has new life since the work will be shared with different people. This correlates to the future of art and how we process them. Does this mean as people change their concepts about things, as the younger generation deal with problem differently to the other generations that art work have to change with the people? We have to make art welcoming or inviting to the viewers so maybe this change to the essence of art is needed.
Battro supports this change, especially adding new elements including virtual tours of the museum. However, as Walter Benjamin mentioned in his essay, maybe excluding this notion of specific site and a specific dimension, the aura of an artwork might disappear. Battro also points out the idea of interaction, it is also interesting but I think more importantly we shouldn’t forget the essence of art, its original form.
We need study or tests to support the different implementation to the online museum, since the whole idea of moving online is relatively new. From the reading, it is also apparent that site map is extremely crucial for a well-developed website as the items within this website is immense. One other important take from the reading is the important to have a good consumer/ user experience, not only it make the whole process more convenient but also greatly improve the possibility for them to use again.
The idea of art and culture is closely related, in Bourdieu’s essay, he emphasizes the nobility of culture or art. It shouldn’t be easy to understand or analyze. People need certain class to extract the essence of a piece of art. Taste has classes, it has a hierarchy in accordance to the hierarchy we normally talk about. The social differences in art and cultural consumption will always be there, since art should have boundary or somewhat exclusive.
In the other essay, museum is looked at as a conflicted institution. While it needs to fulfill its mission to educate, it still has to guide the viewers in the right track. Museum also has to find the right position on the balance, presenting a fair analysis or study to the audience. The museum has to push the viewers to better understand both the knowledge and theory of art as a ecosystem. It is important for museums to create their modules on studies and be assertive on the lessons they want to deliver.
few interesting quotes: “Culture needs are the product of upbringing and education”
“Popular taste applies the schemes of the ethos”
“Taste classifies, and it classifies the classifier”

.NET Standard 1.3 implementation of the NoiseSocket Protocol (revision 2 of the spec).
NoiseSocket provides an encoding layer for the Noise Protocol Framework. NoiseSocket can encode Noise messages and associated negotiation data into a form suitable for transmission over reliable, stream-based protocols such as TCP.
NoiseSocket doesn't specify the contents of negotiation data, since different applications will encode and advertise protocol support in different ways. NoiseSocket just defines a message format to transport this data, and APIs to access it.
Samples
Acceptance (using TcpClient and TcpListener)
Switch protocol (using ordinary Socket)
Retry request (using NamedPipeClientStream and NamedPipeServerStream)
Installation
> dotnet add package NoiseSocket.NET --version 0.9.1

WELCOME
My name is Johanna and I am an aspiring developer.
I LOVE to learn new things and I
LOVE to solve problems!
I have worked for nearly 10 years in the production industry in planning and disposition and for the last 6 years I have been working in the legal industry. Whilst I enjoy both, I feel I need a new challenge and programming surely qualifies as that.
As an avid traveller I feel nowhere and everywhere at home! I love to discover new things, travel to new places, meet new people but I just as much like to hide away and solve a problem, tinker with my laptop and get lost in some unimportant little detail that doesn't work the way I want it to! I like it neat and tidy and I like to get things done!
I am a developing developer. I've started a few times learning Python and never followed through with it for long enough. I am currently learning HTML, CSS and JavaScript but I am planning on having another go with Python. It seems easier every time I start again. It's not work when you're having fun!
Here are some of the projects I have worked on so far:

A question and consideration that is absolutely not official at all and can t be used as a base but... maybe NN will have to handle multiple servers next year
Don t focus on a specific setup
That s just a pure hypothetical maybe popping out of my head. But it can happen. In fact they ll have to size things to be able to handle 1 year of operating
And depending on predictions, and tech status, even 1tb could not be enough, or technical infrastructure may force NN to operate on multiple servers
Things will be announced, but in any case I think some current NN may push for a different infrastructure
(And if we have the ability to gather opinions, I ll personnally vote for a multi server setup)
Yeah. You can also find some 1.92tb nvme for low prices on some providers
(About your question : 1tb will be the minimum imo)
And preferably on a raid1 (i have some servers running on raid0 to get cheaper prices but it s not advised at all on a production server)
Raid1 being the strict minimum

Only Billie Eilish Can Dress Like a Beekeeper and Make It Look Super Cool
by Danielle JacksonBillie Eilish always knows how to make a statement on the red carpet. The singer showed up at the American Music Awards on Sunday night rocking a plaid Burberry outfit with matching sneakers. And if that didn't already make her sound like the ultimate cool girl, she took the look to another level with a chain undershirt and a matching mask — yes, a real mask, because only she could pull off something like that.
The mask was also custom made by Burberry with a white hat and a glittery attachment. Billie finished off her look with diamond jewelry from Bulgari. Read ahead to see more photos of her outfit from all angles.

read_cmdstan_csv()
is used internally by CmdStanR to read
CmdStan's output CSV files into R. It can also be used by CmdStan users as
a more flexible and efficient alternative to rstan::read_stan_csv()
. See
the Value section for details on the structure of the returned list.
It is also possible to create CmdStanR's fitted model objects directly from
CmdStan CSV files using the as_cmdstan_fit()
function.
read_cmdstan_csv( files, variables = NULL, sampler_diagnostics = NULL, format = getOption("cmdstanr_draws_format", NULL) ) as_cmdstan_fit( files, check_diagnostics = TRUE, format = getOption("cmdstanr_draws_format", NULL) )
| files | A character vector of paths to the CmdStan CSV files. These can be files generated by running CmdStanR or running CmdStan directly. |
|---|---|
| variables | Optionally, a character vector naming the variables (parameters, transformed parameters, and generated quantities) to read in.
|
| sampler_diagnostics | Works the same way as |
| format | The format for storing the draws or point estimates. The default depends on the method used to fit the model. See draws for details, in particular the note about speed and memory for models with many parameters. |
| check_diagnostics | For models fit using MCMC, should diagnostic checks
be performed after reading in the files? The default is |
as_cmdstan_fit()
returns a CmdStanMCMC, CmdStanMLE, or
CmdStanVB object. Some methods typically defined for those objects will not
work (e.g. save_data_file()
) but the important methods like $summary()
,
$draws()
, $sampler_diagnostics()
and others will work fine.
read_cmdstan_csv()
returns a named list with the following components:
metadata
: A list of the meta information from the run that produced the
CSV file(s). See Examples below.
The other components in the returned list depend on the method that produced the CSV file(s).
For sampling the returned list also includes the following components:
time
: Run time information for the individual chains. The returned object
is the same as for the $time() method except the total run
time can't be inferred from the CSV files (the chains may have been run in
parallel) and is therefore NA
.
inv_metric
: A list (one element per chain) of inverse mass matrices
or their diagonals, depending on the type of metric used.
step_size
: A list (one element per chain) of the step sizes used.
warmup_draws
: If save_warmup
was TRUE
when fitting the model then a
draws_array
(or different format if format
is
specified) of warmup draws.
post_warmup_draws
: A draws_array
(or
different format if format
is specified) of post-warmup draws.
warmup_sampler_diagnostics
: If save_warmup
was TRUE
when fitting the
model then a draws_array
(or different format if
format
is specified) of warmup draws of the sampler diagnostic variables.
post_warmup_sampler_diagnostics
: A
draws_array
(or different format if format
is
specified) of post-warmup draws of the sampler diagnostic variables.
For optimization the returned list also includes the following components:
point_estimates
: Point estimates for the model parameters.
For variational inference the returned list also includes the following components:
draws
: A draws_matrix
(or different format
if format
is specified) of draws from the approximate posterior
distribution.
 Don't read in any of the sampler diagnostic variables x <- read_cmdstan_csv(csv_files, sampler_diagnostics = "") # Don't read in any of the parameters or generated quantities x <- read_cmdstan_csv(csv_files, variables = "") # Read in only specific parameters and sampler diagnostics x <- read_cmdstan_csv( csv_files, variables = c("alpha", "beta[2]"), sampler_diagnostics = c("n_leapfrog__", "accept_stat__") ) # For non-scalar parameters all elements can be selected or only some elements, # e.g. all of the vector "beta" but only one element of the vector "log_lik" x <- read_cmdstan_csv( csv_files, variables = c("beta", "log_lik[3]") ) # }

I am the 21st cohort of the Deep Dive Code Academy. All of it. I am the Alpha and the Omega. I am infinite. I am eternal. I'm also beginning a new career in tech. My previous experience is in education, community planning and hairball logistics. By the way, I'm a cat.
In my spare time I like spending time with my dog, Buster, building in the garage and creating hairballs so large that even I can't lift them.
I recently adopted a Westie Mix from a local shelter. Buster looks like a muppet and might be a Wauzer, a cross between a west highland terrier and a schnauzer. I also got him a big brother, Canis Major. Unfortunately, Canis is an outside only dog.


INVISIBLE MAN RETURNS, THE (director: Joe May; screenwriter: Lester Cole/Curt Siodmak; cinematographer: Milton Krasner; editor: Frank Gross; cast: Vincent Price (Geoffrey Radcliffe), Nan Grey (Helen Munson), John Sutton (Dr. Frank Griffin), Cedric Hardwicke (Richard Cobb), Cecil Kellaway (Insp. Simpson), Alan Napier (Willie Spears), Forrester Harvey (Ben); Runtime: 81; Universal; 1940)
Reviewed by Dennis Schwartz
A very good sequel to "The Invisible Man (33)," though not as imaginative as the original. Vincent Price plays Geoffrey Radcliffe, a wealthy owner of a mining company and sponsor of a humanitarian research-medical facility on the premises. He has been framed for murdering his brother nine years ago and is about to be executed in two hours. He is visited in prison by Dr. Frank Griffin (Sutton), the brother of the original Invisible Man genius scientist who invented a formula to become invisible, and he uses his brother's serum to inject his benefactor Geoffrey Radcliffe so he can escape from prison undetected. He will now try to find the real killer and in a race-against-time, Frank will try to find an antidote, as one of the side effects of the invisible serum, is that if he can't be returned to visibility, madness will occur at any time.
Warning: spoilers to follow.
Geoffrey's beautiful fiancée Helen Munson (Nan Grey) meets him in the reclusive gamekeeper's house where he can be seen because he is dressed with sunglasses and bandages wrapped around his head and is wearing clothes that Frank gave him. He bemoans his fate and vows to get the killer, and she reaffirms her unrelenting love for him. A barking dog gives away the hideout, as a snooping policeman uncovers that there is someone in the house. When Scotland Yard Inspector Samson (Kellaway) arrives at the scene, he already knows about the scientific work of Griffin's deceased brother and his experimental serum, and realizes that he is after an invisible man. In an amusing scene, despite the use of cigar smoke, Geoffrey escapes undetected from the house and the police are reduced to putting a tail on Helen and Frank.
Geoffrey's cousin Richard Cobb (Hardwicke), sporting a villainous mustache, while secretly pining for Helen, comforts her and tells her he wants to help, if he only knew where Geoffrey was he will send him money. He benefited from the death of Geoffrey's brother and Geoffrey's prison sentence and his expected execution means that he will not only run the mining company but upon Geoffrey's death will officially inherit it. Under Cobb's rein, the miners are disgruntled, as a former watchman in the mining company, a Mr. Willie Spears (Napier), now is the cruel and ignorant supervisor, chosen by Cobb to oversee the workers.
The search for the killer was too obvious to be interesting, but the fun to be had was when the side effects to the serum kicked in and Geoffrey became egomaniacal. In a supper scene with Frank and Helen, he declares "I want worshippers not friends -- I will reward them for their loyalty." There is also a great special effects scene, where the police have him trapped in Cobb's house and use smoke bombs to try and detect him. The film received a nomination for a Special Effects Oscar in 1941.

class: left, middle background-image: url(../../images/master-folie.png) .title[ ## Maps and Sets
### Oleg Varaksin ####<EMAIL_ADDRESS>] --- # Maps (1/6). In ES5, the major drawback with objects-as-maps is the inability to use a non-string value as the key. Example: ```js var m = {}; var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; m[x] = "foo"; m[y] = "bar"; m[x]; // "bar" m[y]; // "bar" ``` The two objects `x` and `y` both stringify to `"[object Object]"`, so only that one key is being set in `m`. In ES6, you can use `Map(...)` to fix this problem. Map is a key/value data structure. --- # Maps (2/6). The `Map` has `set(...)` and `get(...)` methods. ```js var m = new Map(); var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; m.set(x, "foo"); m.set(y, "bar"); m.get(x); // "foo" m.get(y); // "bar" ``` You're able to use anything for the keys. You're not just limited to primitive values like symbols, numbers, or strings, but you can even use functions, objects and dates too. ```js var map = new Map(); map.set(new Date(), function today() {}); map.set(() => 'key', {pony: 'foo'}); map.set(Symbol('items'), [1, 2]); ``` --- # Maps (3/6). To delete an element from a map, use the `delete(...)` method. ```js m.set(x, "foo"); m.set(y, "bar"); m.delete(y); ``` To determine if a map has a given key, use `has(...)`. ```js m.has(y) // false ``` You can clear the entire map's contents with `clear()`. To get the length of a map (i.e., the number of keys), use the `size` property. ```js m.set(x, "foo"); m.set(y, "bar"); m.size; // 2 m.clear(); m.size; // 0 ``` --- # Maps (4/6). The `Map(...)` constructor can receive an iterable, which must produce a list of arrays, where the first item in each array is the key and the second item is the value. ```js var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; var m = new Map([[x, "foo"], [y, "bar"]]); m.get(x); // "foo" m.get(y); // "bar" ``` This format for iteration is identical to that produced by the `entries()` method. That makes it easy to make a copy of a map: ```js var m2 = new Map(m.entries()); var m3 = new Map(m); // the same as above ``` You don't need to explicitly iterate over `.entries()` because ```js map[Symbol.iterator] === map.entries // => true ``` --- # Maps (5/6). You can iterate over `Map` entries in multiple ways. `for..of` loop combined with destructuring. ```js var map = new Map(); map.set('s', 'o'); map.set('m', 'e'); for (let [key, value] of map) { console.log(`${key}: ${value}`); } // <- 's: o' // <- 'm: e' ``` `.forEach` method (same as for array). ```js var map = new Map([[NaN, 1], [Symbol(), 2]]); map.forEach((value, key) => console.log(key, value)); // <- NaN 1 // <- Symbol() 2 ``` __Note:__ Map's entries are always iterated in insertion order! This is in contrast with `Object.keys` or `for..in` loops which follow an arbitrary order. --- # Maps (6/6). Just like `.entries()`, Map has two other iterators you can leverage. - Method `.keys()` to get the list of keys. - Method `.values()` to get the list of values. ```js var m = new Map(); var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; m.set(x, "foo"); m.set(y, "bar"); var keys = [...m.keys()]; var vals = [...m.values()]; keys[0] === x; // true keys[1] === y; // true vals[0] === "foo"; // true vals[1] === "bar"; // true ``` --- # WeakMaps (1/2). `WeakMap` holds references to its keys weakly, meaning that if there are no other references to one of its keys, the object is subject to garbage collection. Keeping data about DOM elements that should be released from memory when they're no longer of interest is very important use case of `WeakMap`. If you have DOM elements as keys in a normal `Map`, the DOM elements don't get released from memory because the `Map` still keeps references to them. There are a few limitations on `WeakMap` in comparison to `Map`. - `WeakMap` is not iterable. There are no `.entries()`, no `.keys()`, no `.values()`, no `.forEach()`. - There is no `.clear()`. - There is no `.size()`. - Every key must be an object. ```js var map = new WeakMap(); map.set(1, 2); // TypeError: 1 is not an object! ``` --- # WeakMaps (2/2). You are still able to pass an iterable to populate a `WeakMap` through its constructor. ```js var map = new WeakMap([[new Date(), 'foo'], [() => 'bar', 'baz']]); ``` Just like with `Map`, you can use `.has()`, `.get()`, and `.delete()` too. It's important to note that a `WeakMap` only holds its keys weakly, not its values. ```js var m = new WeakMap(); var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }, z = { id: 3 }, w = { id: 4 }; m.set(x, y); x = null; // {id: 1} is GC-eligible y = null; // {id: 2} is GC-eligible only because {id: 1} is m.set(z, w); w = null; // {id: 4} is not GC-eligible ``` --- # Sets (1/3). A set is a collection of unique values (duplicates are ignored). The API for a set is similar to map. `The add(...)` method takes the place of the `set(...)` method, and there is no `get(...)` method. ```js var s = new Set(); var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; s.add(x); s.add(y); s.add(x); s.size; // 2 s.delete(y); s.size; // 1 s.has(y); // false s.clear(); s.size; // 0 ``` --- # Sets (2/3). The `Set(...)` constructor form is similar to `Map(...)`, in that it can receive an iterable, like another set or simply an array of values. However, unlike `Map(...)` which expects entries list (array of key/value arrays), `Set(...)` expects a values list (array of values): ```js var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; var s = new Set([x, y]); ``` Sets have the same iterator methods as maps. The `keys()` and `values()` iterators both yield a list of the unique values in the set. The `entries()` iterator yields a list of items like `[value, value]`. The default iterator for a set is its `values()` iterator. ```js set[Symbol.iterator] === set.values // true set.keys === set.values // true ``` --- # Sets (3/3). ```js var s = new Set(); var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; s.add(x).add(y); var keys = [...s.keys()], vals = [...s.values()]; keys[0] === x; keys[1] === y; vals[0] === x; vals[1] === y; ``` The following piece of code creates a `Set` with all the `div` elements on a page. ```js function divs () { return [...document.querySelectorAll('div')]; } var set = new Set(divs()); ``` --- # WeakSets. WeakSet holds its values weakly (there aren't really keys). ```js var s = new WeakSet(); var x = { id: 1 }, y = { id: 2 }; s.add(x); s.add(y); x = null; // x is GC-eligible y = null; // y is GC-eligible ``` __Important:__ - `WeakSet` values must be objects, not primitive values as it is allowed with Sets. - You can't iterate over `WeakSet`. Like in `WeakMap`, you can only use `.add()`, `.has()`, and `.delete()`. --- class: center, middle, inverse # That's all folks, thanks for your attention! .back[[Back to the homepage](http://ova2.github.io/es6-presentations/)] Slideshow created with [remark](https://github.com/gnab/remark)

Nightblade + Demolitionist = Saboteur
Faction of Choice: Kymon’s Chosen and hostile with Barrowholm
Final Level 100 Stat Distribution: All in Physique
Once you reach about level 40 your basic attack scheme is in place:
Trash:
Facetank bosses: Same as Trash but with the occational
Kite bosses: Throw down
You want to aim for Nex and Ortus from the Sacred Harmony set. Everything else is otimised to convert damage to cold.
You also want to be hostile with Barrowholm to farm Namadea's Horns. An alternative to the mentioned armor is a complete Shattered Guardian set.
Most of the greens are relatively easy farmable. Whenever possible try to get an upgrade.

Final Project
Final Project Development
Finding the right form and shape wasn't as easy as it might sound.
I starter by drawing by and what i thought I want my brake light to look like.
Then week two came and i used the assignment to make a 3d model of my light.
At this point i already had an idea of the electronic components tha I want to use on my
prototype so I started by designing the components
that i will use in the brake light to try to understand how can i fit them together.
And the bloks in order and design a possible box for the components, trying find the right shape and size.
But I was still not happy with my brake light case, and in the molding and casting and composites assignments
I thought i might make two alternatives for the cover for my brake light,
one in plastic and the other one with fiberglass and resin.
In order to make my molds I modeled another case alternative.
I used the same method but the result was a diferent shape.
But I ended up 3Dprinting it :P
Prototyping
So now we are very close to the final project presentation and all i have done so far is the idea
for the project and how the brake light should look like. The idea has changed a little bit from the first week.
I decided to start with the electronics because that is definitely the hardest part for me. So first and before designing the circuit board,
i connected the accelerometer and the leds to an arduino and programed them to work together.
This part happened in tree different moments:
1. Arduino and LED's
At firs I thought that I would like to use NeoPixel because they allow numerous colors and by being controlled
individually by one pin allows also the creation of animations with the LEDs. But after I've implemented the code in arduino I
found that it was more difficult to control this kind of LED and since we managed to make our animation through other methods (by blinking)we chose to do this with the normal red LEDs.
2. Arduino and Accelerometer
The accelerometer that I used was the ADXL335. I choosed this one just because we already had one module of this
accelerometer here in the lab and because beeing an analog accelerometer the output is a continuous voltage that is
proportional to acceleration for each axis for the propouse of my final project it's the simpliest solution.
3. Power the Circuit
Lastly, was the time to find a way to power the circuit. To do that i used a 18650 rechargeable lithium battery from an
old laptop battery, so it's a protected-cell and a high density battery. To charge it I choose a BMS (battery management system),
the BMS manages a rechargeable battery by protecting the batery and preventing it from operating outside its safe operating area:
Over-current, Over-voltage, Under-voltage
1st Prototype
Next step was to design the board, I knew i wanted a board with a Led strip, accelerometer,:
