Our TSA Chapter team and advisors help run and improve the CV-TSA chapter. They act as role models, help plan fundraising events, and create a friendly atmosphere. Our chapter is competitive but we still enjoy ourselves and have fun.
We vote our officers annually using the State TSA election guidelines. Our officers work hard to ensure that our chapter succeeds and has fun. This year, for example, they placed the burden of financing the State conference registration upon themselves.
We also have two middle school chapters from our school district, Mountain View TSA and Eagle View TSA. As a whole, the officers and advisors from both middle school and high school collaborate for the CV TSA as a whole.

Best MacBook for Gaming iMore 2019
Apple MacBooks have never been designed to perform solely as gaming laptops. Despite this, some models are better than others for this type of use. Our favorite current model, the 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) i7 processor, includes numerous features that make it a terrific device for casual gamers. There are other noteworthy models we've gathered to help you choose the one that fits your needs best.
- Best Overall: 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) i7 processor
- Best Value: MacBook Air (2019)
- Best Alternative: 13-inch MacBook Pro (2019)
- Best Premium: 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) i9 processor
Best Overall: 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) i7 processor

For gamers, we're recommending the least expensive of the two 16-inch models, which includes a 9th-generation Intel Core i7 processor with Turbo Boost up to 4.5GHz. We're picking this one because it offers a nice mix of features at a price that's far more affordable than the premium offering we highlight below.
The base 16-inch MacBook Pro comes with 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 memory, 512GB SSD storage, and four Thunderbolt 3 ports. The model comes standard with an AMD Radeon Pro 5300M with 4GB of GDDR6 graphics processor that you can upgrade to an AMD Radeon Pro 5500M with 4GB of GDDR6 or an AMD Radeon Pro 5500M with 8 GB of GDDR6 for better performance.
On the obvious downside, this is still an expensive laptop. Plus, you'll need to recharge this laptop more often than the MacBook Air. And like all MacBooks, it isn't usually on sale at a discount.
Pros:
- The least expensive 16-inch model
- Pay extra for a graphics boost
- Biggest MacBook Pro display to date
Cons:
- Still very expensive
- Not the most powerful MBP you can buy
- Up to 11 hours wireless web
Best Overall
16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) i7 processor
Largest display for less
The entry-level 16-inch MacBook Pro is an excellent choice for the occasional computer gamer.
Best Value: MacBook Air (2019)
Source: iMore
Much lighter than the 13-inch MacBook Pro that has the same screen size, the 2019 MacBook Air weighs just 2.75 pounds, making it a great take-and-go laptop. Along with being less weighty, the MacBook Air provides an hour more of use between charges, although actual performance depends on the tasks.
We're sold on the entry-level MacBook Air, even for gaming, because of its price. Still, think casual gaming here only thanks to its slower processor and graphics card. There's also fewer Thunderbolt 3 ports on this model.
If you're purchasing a laptop solely for gaming, this isn't the one to buy. However, it will work well in a pinch when you need to take a break from your studies or work.
Pros:
- Same screen size as 13-inch MBP
- Up to 12 hours of wireless web between charges
- Excellent price
Cons:
- Only two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports
- Not as powerful as MBP models
Best Value
MacBook Air (2019)
Save money and still game
Casual-casual gamers will enjoy using this MacBook Air model during the occasional break from work or school.
Best Alternative: 13-inch MacBook Pro (2019)
Source: iMore
When it comes to the 2019 13-inch MacBook Pro, $500 separates the base and most complete package. For even more, you can upgrade the machine's For the five memory, storage, and processor.
The smaller of the two MacBook Pro models is a great overall pick. At just over three pounds, the 13-inch MacBook Pro is only slightly heavier than the MacBook Air. For this, you get a better processor and graphics card, more storage availability, and a Touch Bar. You can upgrade the processor and storage. In doing so, however, you'll push the price just shy of $2,000. If that happens, you might want to consider our No. 1 pick instead.
Regardless, if a 13-inch display is what you want and you want the bells and whistles missing on the MacBook Air, this is the one to get. If you intend to spend more than one-fourth of your time gaming, it's even more vital for you to consider this model over the Air.
Pros:
- Better internals than MacBook Air
- Great mobility
- Much cheaper than the 16-inch model
Cons:
- You can't upgrade the graphics card
- Price can rise as you add components
- Is 13-inches enough?
Best Alternative
13-inch MacBook Pro (2019)
A step up
There's much to love about this model, which offers better internals than the MacBook Air.
Best Premium: 16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) i9 processor
Source: Rene Ritchie / iMore
If you're a hard-core Mac gamers, or want to be, the 16-inch MacBook Pro with an 8‑core 9th‑generation Intel Core i9 processor and Turbo Boost up to 4.8GHz is the one for you. Compared to the entry-level model, you'll get a graphics card boost and 1TB of storage. If this isn't enough, add more memory, an even better graphics card, and more storage. In doing so, the cost of this model can quickly exceed nearly $6,000, however.
Pros:
- Apple's best MacBook Pro to date
- Graphics boost, upgrades
- Up to 64GB of memory available
Cons:
- Very expensive, of course
Best Premium
16-inch MacBook Pro (2019) i9 processor
The best of the best
If you're okay with the price, no doubt this is the MacBook to get. Happy gaming!
Bottom line
In 2019, the MacBook lineup changed considerably as Apple discontinued the 12-inch MacBook and 15-inch model MacBook Pro. The change brings to four the number of Apple laptops we recommend for gaming purposes.  Still, it will cost you, especially if you add extras. It's still an expensive laptop, which no doubt is something to consider too.
The base model includes a 9th-generation Intel Core i7 processor with Turbo Boost up to 4.5GHz with 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 memory, 512GB SSD storage, and four Thunderbolt 3 ports. The model comes standard with an AMD Radeon Pro 5300M with 4GB of GDDR6 graphics processor and can be upgraded to an AMD Radeon Pro 5500M with 4GB of GDDR6 or an AMD Radeon Pro 5300M with 8 GB of GDDR6 for better performance.

Host network isolation occurs when a host is still running but it can no longer communicate with other hosts in the cluster and it cannot ping the configured isolation address(es). When the HA agent on a host loses contact with the other hosts, it will ping the isolation addresses. If the pings fail, the host will declare itself isolated.
Once the HA agent declares the host isolated, it will initiate the isolation response workflow after a 30 second delay. You can use the FDM advanced option fdm.isolationPolicyDelaySec to increase the delay. For each virtual machine, the HA agent attempts to determine if a master is responsible for restarting the virtual machine. If it cannot make the determination, or there is a master that is responsible, the agent will apply the configured isolation response. This workflow will continue until the configuration policy, has been applied to all virtual machines, the agent reconnects to another HA agent in the cluster, or the isolation address pings start succeeding. If there is a master agent in the cluster, it will attempt to restart the virtual machines that were powered off during isolation.
By default, the isolated host leaves its virtual machines powered on. You can override the isolation response default with a cluster-wide setting (defaultVmSettings) or a virtual machine setting (isolationResponse).
clusterIsolationResponse
are valid
for the cluster-wide default HA configuration for virtual machines
(defaultVmSettings).
If you ensure that your network infrastructure is sufficiently redundant and that at least one network path is available at all times, host network isolation should be a rare occurrence.
Enum Constants
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| clusterIsolationResponse |
Use the default isolation reponse defined for the cluster
that contains this virtual machine.
|
| none |
Do not power off the virtual machine in the event of a host network
isolation.
|
| powerOff |
Power off the virtual machine in the event of a host network
isolation.
|
| shutdown |
Shut down the virtual machine guest operating system in the event of
a host network isolation. If the guest operating system fails to
shutdown within five minutes, HA will initiate a forced power off.
When you use the shutdown isolation response, failover can take longer (compared to the powerOff response) because the virtual machine cannot fail over until it is shutdown. Since VI API 2.5u2 |

'Tis the season for scammers
by Darren HandschuhScam artists are always coming up with new and creative ways to bilk people out of their money.
And there may be a new Facebook scam making the rounds.
A Vernon woman was contacted by a close 'friend' of Facebook looking for some financial help.
But it turned out to be a crypto currency, bitcoin scam and her friend's Facebook profile had been hacked.
She stopped by a local business and asked how to purchase $5,000 worth of bitcoins.
The business operator, who asked to remain anonymous, became suspicious and asked the lady a few questions about the transaction and things did not add up.
The woman was told if she provided $5,000 to the United Nations Democracy Grant Funding program she would get a $50,000 return on her investment.
“The reason she believed it was because it was a Facebook message from her friend that she knows in real life telling her she sent $8,500 and got back $85,000,” said the store operator who helped the woman. “I questioned the validity of this and asked if she had heard from her friend physically that she had received the money.”
The store operator did some research of his own and showed the woman the United Nations does not deal in crypto currency and does solicit people for funds.
It is not uncommon for people to have their Facebook accounts hacked, but the tech-savvy store operator had not heard of this particular scam before.
“It ended up she did not lose any money. She is a senior citizen that was easily fooled because it was supposedly her friend,” said the store operator.
Vernon RCMP Const. Jocelyn Noseworthy said scammers are constantly coming up with new ways to separate people from their money.
Noseworthy said she has not heard of this scam specifically, but was not surprised a new scam was making the rounds.
The most common scam going around is the CRA scam where a recorded message tells people they will be arrested if they do not send money.
There are things people can do to protect themselves.
“Be suspect of anything that is unsolicited. Make sure you check it out and do your due diligence,” said Noseworthy, adding in this specific scam it is a good idea to contact the friend in person.
People are also reminded to never give out personal information, even at the insistence of the caller.

Did you know common_schema supports a complete breakdown of all accounts on your database server? It can provide you with the GRANT statements required to set up an account, the REVOKE statements to undo the former, and this can be broken down on a per-object & per-object-type basis. Consider the sql_grants view:
Find who has privileges on a table called t:
select * from common_schema.sql_grants where priv_level_name='table' and object_name='t'\G GRANTEE: 'power1'@'localhost' user: power1 host: localhost priv_level: `mytst`.`t` priv_level_name: table object_schema: mytst object_name: t current_privileges: SELECT IS_GRANTABLE: NO sql_grant: GRANT SELECT ON `mytst`.`t` TO 'power1'@'localhost' sql_revoke: REVOKE SELECT ON `mytst`.`t` FROM 'power1'@'localhost' sql_drop_user: DROP USER 'power1'@'localhost'
or, who has privileges on the test schema:
select * from common_schema.sql_grants where priv_level_name='schema' and object_name='test' \G GRANTEE: 'power1'@'localhost' user: power1 host: localhost priv_level: `test`.* priv_level_name: schema object_schema: NULL object_name: test current_privileges: ALTER, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE, CREATE ROUTINE, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, CREATE VIEW, DELETE, DROP, EVENT, EXECUTE, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK TABLES, REFERENCES, SELECT, SHOW VIEW, TRIGGER, UPDATE IS_GRANTABLE: NO sql_grant: GRANT ALTER, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE, CREATE ROUTINE, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, CREATE VIEW, DELETE, DROP, EVENT, EXECUTE, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK TABLES, REFERENCES, SELECT, SHOW VIEW, TRIGGER, UPDATE ON `test`.* TO 'power1'@'localhost' sql_revoke: REVOKE ALTER, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE, CREATE ROUTINE, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, CREATE VIEW, DELETE, DROP, EVENT, EXECUTE, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK TABLES, REFERENCES, SELECT, SHOW VIEW, TRIGGER, UPDATE ON `test`.* FROM 'power1'@'localhost' sql_drop_user: DROP USER 'power1'@'localhost' GRANTEE: 'test'@'localhost' user: test host: localhost priv_level: `test`.* priv_level_name: schema object_schema: NULL object_name: test current_privileges: ALTER, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE, CREATE ROUTINE, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, CREATE VIEW, DELETE, DROP, EVENT, EXECUTE, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK TABLES, REFERENCES, SELECT, SHOW VIEW, TRIGGER, UPDATE IS_GRANTABLE: NO sql_grant: GRANT ALTER, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE, CREATE ROUTINE, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, CREATE VIEW, DELETE, DROP, EVENT, EXECUTE, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK TABLES, REFERENCES, SELECT, SHOW VIEW, TRIGGER, UPDATE ON `test`.* TO 'test'@'localhost' sql_revoke: REVOKE ALTER, ALTER ROUTINE, CREATE, CREATE ROUTINE, CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES, CREATE VIEW, DELETE, DROP, EVENT, EXECUTE, INDEX, INSERT, LOCK TABLES, REFERENCES, SELECT, SHOW VIEW, TRIGGER, UPDATE ON `test`.* FROM 'test'@'localhost' sql_drop_user: DROP USER 'test'@'localhost'
In the same manner, you can easily SELECT for all grants that are defined per-table, per-schema, ... priv_level_name: is any one of 'user', 'schema', 'table', 'column', 'routine'.
The above is a view, which aggregates data from all relevant INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables, normalizing and de-normalizing as necessary.
You might also want to look at sql_show_grants which provides with a no-breakdown GRANT for all accounts.
Also, thanks to eval(), the above make for executable code. Consider:
Revoke any and all specific grants on private_schema.private_table:
call common_schema.eval("select sql_revoke from sql_grants where object_schema='private_schema' and object_name='private_table'")
It's been around for quite a while now. We're using it in production extensively. Try it out!

The BTextC Manifesto
It should be easy to send small(ish) amounts of bitcoin via text message. The recipient shouldn’t need a wallet, or an app, or an account. This would expand the group "people you can send Bitcoin to" from mere millions of people, those with wallets and accounts at exchanges, to anyone with a phone, i.e. billions.
Then you could send bitcoin directly as aid, and/or to those struck by crisis, a la GiveDirectly. (Yes, they'd then have to find a way to convert it -- but they would still be in immediate direct possession of aid money, which they might not even want to convert immediately, preferring to hold it to hedge against local inflation.) You could pay your share of a group expense in bitcoin, on the spot, with minimal hassle, even if the recipient has no wallet. You could immediately send money across borders to anyone with a phone, or construct programmatic bitcoin rewards which anyone with a phone could claim.
Others have thought this. But what do all of the existing ‘send bitcoin via text’ solutions demand? “Download our app / Create an account / Sign up at our site.” No, stop it, wrong. Nobody wants that--and it’s not necessary. Bitcoin comes with everything needed to transfer value via text already built in. You don’t need an account, or an app, or a site, or a token. All you need is a protocol: a repeatable way to turn the recipient’s phone number, and a password for security, into the private key which can access the transferred money.
“What? Working with raw private keys? Ones built from not-entirely-random data, therefore lower entropy? Using notoriously hackable and SIM-swappable SMS? That is horrifically unsafe and insecure and completely unacceptable!” No, stop it, wrong. I mean, I certainly wouldn’t send a million dollars this way. And I’d certainly favor Signal and WhatsApp over SMS. But the threat model for a million-dollar transaction is very very very different from the threat model for fifty bucks. For the latter, a protocol protected by decent passwords is good enough.
So what is this protocol? It’s quite simple:
- Take the recipient’s phone number.
- Pick a password, with decent length and complexity requirements.
- Use 1. and 2. to create a Bitcoin private key in a deterministic way.
- Use that private key to create its corresponding Bitcoin address.
- Send bitcoin to that address.
- Text the password to the recipient's phone number.
- Recipient goes through steps 1-3 again to get the address's private key.
You may be thinking: "This sounds super low level and complex!" Sure. That's why I built a web service to handle steps 1 through 4 for you. That site runs everything locally in your browser, of course, all data is ephemeral and transient, nothing is ever stored, etc. (And again, before your head explodes, the threat model for "occasionally sending $50 to your buddy" is very very different from the threat model for "a crypto whale's life savings.") This reduces the procedure to:
- Go to BTextC.com, enter the recipient's phone number, pick a password.
- Text that password and an explanatory URL to the recipient’s phone. (The site generates boilerplate text to copy/paste.)
- Send bitcoin to the generated address.
- Recipient goes to BTextC.com and uses the password they were texted to get their private key -- basically, an "electronic paper wallet" -- to be imported (or swept) into a more formal / secure wallet, then perhaps exchanged for fiat.
Note that you don’t have to use the web site at all for any of this. It’s just a convenience and a reference implementation. You can do it all yourself on an air-gapped computer in an underground bunker if you really want.
Note also that there's room for higher-level services here, such as a service to 1. generate the password and host it (but not the money!) in a kind of password escrow, 2. ensure the number is correct by having the recipient verify obscure/trivial knowledge shared by both parties, and only then 3. actually send the recipient the password. I expect you'll be able to think of more yet. This protocol is (deliberately) primitive, but it's a primitive atop which more sophisticated services could be built.
Obviously this is an alpha release -- that's why the HTML is deliberately brutalist -- and you should probably stick to testnets, for now. Even if/when you start sending real money, don't send very much.
A few potential use cases spelled out in more detail:
-
Suppose you want to airdrop bitcoin to everyone in a given region, or with a given phone number prefix, again a la GiveDirectly.  So you ask "Can I pay you with Bitcoin?" Instead of requiring the recipient to download a wallet, deal with a mnemonic phrase, figure out addresses, etc., on the spot -- unrealistically complex and obnoxious -- you just ask them for their phone number. Maybe send them a quick confirmation text to ensure you got it right. Then just come up with a witty password, send them a text with it, fire up your wallet, and transfer 0.01 BTC to the address copied from BTextC.com. The hard part is now the witty password.
-
Suppose you don’t even want to send bitcoin to a phone; you just want to reward whoever solves a puzzle first. You do this by making its solutions a 15-digit number and a password. Then whoever gets it first can go to BTextC.com/receive, enter those values, get the private key, and claim its contents.
-
This doesn't just work for phone numbers. It could also be used for email addresses, Twitter handles, or any other kind of unique identifier.
Of course, senders still have to perform the actual blockchain transfers themselves. (A higher-level service could do this, but would have to be a registered and regulated money transmitter, in most countries.) BTextC can’t help with that user experience, or the recpient’s experience once they receive their cryptocurrency.
But there are no additional user experiences: no account to sign up for, no app to download, nothing else to think about or keep track of. It’s simple ... and it’s already baked in, right at the protocol level, waiting to be used.
You may be wondering: can you do this with Ethereum too? And the answer is: you sure can. The algorithms are just a little different. See the very similar Texthereum Manifesto...

Patience, perseverance must for legal profession, says HC judge
Moot Court Competition in Kannada at KSLU
by Special CorrespondentHigh Court Judge H.T. Nagendra Prasad said that honesty, perseverance and patience would go a long way in achieving success in the legal profession. He was inaugurating the Seventh State-Level Moot Court Competition in Kannada by Karnataka State Law University here on Saturday.
Mr. Prasad said that after students completed their law education, they would be faced with various options, but he would advise them to choose the legal profession as it was a noble one.
Lauding the KSLU for organising the moot court in Kannada, he elaborated on the significance of the mother tongue and why it was important have such competitions in Kannada. Mr. Prasad also said that participation in an event itself meant a new experience that would bring new lessons.
Another judge of the High Court of Karnataka, P.G.M. Patil said that mooting made students familiar with complex concepts of the law and the exposure gained on such occasions would benefit students a great deal.
Presiding over the inaugural session, Vice Chancellor of KSLU P. Ishwara Bhat emphasised on the need for research, talent, communication skills and intelligence required for law students.
Registrar of KSLU R. Ravishankar made a presentation on ‘Women’s Rights in India - Honour Killings’. Registrar (Evaluation) G.B. Patil, Dean and Director of KSLU C.S. Patil and others were present. In all, 25 teams participated in the event.


Jennifer Nettles Calls for Gender Equality at 2019 CMA Awards Red Carpet
“The more our songs are played, the more women get to hear their own stories, challenges and triumphs reflected.”
by Layla IlchiJennifer Nettles used the CMA Awards red carpet on Wednesday night to shine a light on gender equality in the country music industry.
The country singer attended the 2019 CMA Awards held in Nashville dressed in a custom Christian Siriano white suit and hot pink cape, which carried the message “Play Our F–in Records Please & Thank You!” and “Equal Play.” Nettles worked with Siriano and artist Alice Mizrachi to create the look.
As this year’s awards show was a celebration of female artists, Nettles used her red-carpet look to spotlight the fact that female musicians don’t receive as much recognition as male musicians within the country music genre.
Nettles elaborated on the problem and her look in an Instagram post, stating the statistics that “Sixteen percent of the top 500 songs over the last four years were [by] women.”
“The piece that [Siriano and Mizrachi] created for me is a beautiful celebration of women in country music as well as a call to action within the industry at large,” she continued. “I am honored to get to be here at the [CMA Awards] celebrating other women in country music. We need the celebration and support of women to move into country radio and country play listing. We want our songs to be played and our stories to be heard. The more our songs are played, the more women get to hear their own stories, challenges and triumphs reflected.”
Nettles was joined on the red carpet by a host of other musicians and celebrities, including Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman — both dressed in Versace — and Gigi Hadid in Helmut Lang, who accompanied Kacey Musgraves, dressed in a feathery yellow Valentino spring 2020 dress.

This document is a Working Draft of the World Wide Web Consortium. Please send detailed comments on this document to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>before 2359Z, June 1st 1999. We cannot guarantee a personal response, but we will try when it is appropriate. Public discussion on HTML features takes place on the mailing list<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(archive). The W3C staff contact for work on HTML is Dave Raggett.
This document has been produced as part of the W3C HTML Activity. The goals of the HTML Working Group (members only) are discussed in the HTML Working Group charter (members only).
This specification is a revision of the working draft dated 4th March 1999 incorporating suggestions received during review, comments and further deliberations of the W3C HTML Working Group. The detailed differences are available for reviewers to compare.
Publication as a Working Draft does not imply endorsement by the W3C membership. This is a draft document and may be updated, replaced or obsoleted by other documents at any time. It is inappropriate to cite W3C Drafts as other than "work in progress".
This specification defines XHTML 1.0, a reformulation of HTML 4.0 as an XML 1.0 application, and three DTDs corresponding to the ones defined by HTML 4.0. The semantics of the elements and their attributes are defined in the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.0. These semantics provide the foundation for future extensibility of XHTML. Compatibility with existing HTML user agents is possible by following a small set of guidelines.
XHTML is a reformulation of HTML 4.0 [HTML] as an application of XML 1.0 [XML].
XHTML 1.0 specifies three DTDs corresponding to the HTML 4.0 DTDs, and an XML namespace identified by a unique URI.
XHTML 1.0 is the basis for a family of future document types that extend and subset HTML. This idea is discussed in more detail in the section on Future Directions.
HTML 4.0 [HTML] is an SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language) application conforming to International Standard ISO 8879, and is widely regarded as the standard publishing language of the World Wide Web.
SGML is a language for describing markup languages, particularly those used in electronic document exchange, document management, and document publishing. HTML is an example of a language defined in SGML.
SGML has been around since the middle 1980's and has remained quite stable. Much of this stability stems from the fact that the language is both feature-rich and flexible. This flexibility, however, comes at a price, and that price is a level of complexity that has inhibited its adoption in a diversity of environments, including the World Wide Web.
HTML, as originally conceived, was to be a language for the exchange of scientific and other technical documents, suitable for use by non-document specialists. HTML addressed the problem of SGML complexity by specifying a small set of structural and semantic tags suitable for authoring relatively simple documents. In addition to simplifying the document structure, HTML added support for hypertext. Multimedia capabilities were added later.
In a remarkably short space of time, HTML became wildly popular and rapidly outgrew its original purpose. Since HTML's inception, there has been rapid invention of new elements for use within HTML (as a standard) and for adapting HTML to vertical, highly specialized, markets. This plethora of new elements has led to compatibility problems for documents across different platforms.
As the heterogeneity of both software and platforms rapidly proliferate, it is clear that the suitability of 'classic' HTML 4.0 for use on these platforms is somewhat limited.
XML™ is the shorthand for Extensible Markup Language, and is an acronym of eXtensible Markup Language [XML].
XML was conceived as a means of regaining the power and flexibility of SGML without most of its complexity. Although a restricted form of SGML, XML nonetheless preserves most of SGML's power and richness, and yet still retains all of SGML's commonly used features.
While retaining these beneficial features, XML removes many of the more complex features of SGML that make the authoring and design of suitable software both difficult and costly.
There are two major reasons for content developers to adopt XHTML:
First, XHTML is designed to be extensible. This extensibility relies upon the XML requirement that documents be well-formed. Under SGML, the addition of a new group of elements would mean alteration of the entire DTD. In an XML-based DTD, all that is required is that the new set of elements be internally consistent and well-formed to be added to an existing DTD. The greatly eases the development and integration of new collections of elements.
Second, XHTML is designed for portability. There will be increasing use of non-desktop user agents to access Internet documents. Some estimates indicate that by the year 2002, 75% of Internet document viewing will be carried out on these alternate platforms. In most cases these platforms will not have the computing power of a desktop platform, and will not be designed to accommodate ill-formed HTML as current user agents tend to do. Indeed if these user agents do not receive well-formed XHTML, they may simply not display the document.
The following terms are used in this specification. These terms extend the definitions in [RFC2119] in ways based upon similar definitions in ISO/IEC 9945-1:1990 [POSIX.1]:
This version of XHTML provides a definition of strictly conforming XHTML documents, which are restricted to tags and attributes from the XHTML 1.0 namespace. See Section 3.1.2 for information on using XHTML with other namespaces, for instance, to include metadata expressed in RDF within XHTML documents.
A Strictly Conforming XHTML Document is a document that requires only the facilities described as mandatory in this specification. Such a document must meet all of the following criteria:
It must validate against one of the three DTDs found in Appendix A.
The root element of the document must be

.
The root element of the document must designate the XHTML 1.0
namespace using the xmlns
attribute [XMLNAMES]. The namespace for XHTML 1.0 is
defined to be:
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1
There must be a DOCTYPE declaration in the document prior to the root element. If present, the public identifier included in the DOCTYPE declaration must reference one of the three DTDs found in Appendix A using the respective Formal Public Identifier. The system identifier may be modified appropriately.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/strict.dtd"> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/transitional.dtd"> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/frameset.dtd">
XHTML Documents may be labeled with the Internet Media Type
text/html
or text/xml
. When labeled as
text/html
, documents should follow the guidelines
set forth in Appendix C. Failure
to follow these guidelines will almost certainly ensure that the
document will fail to be processed on older implementations.
Here is an example of a minimal XHTML document.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/strict.dtd">   <title>Virtual Library</title>
Moved to vlib.org.

The XHTML 1.0 namespace may be used with other XML namespaces as per [XMLNAMES], although such documents are not strictly conforming XHTML 1.0 documents as defined above. Future work by W3C will address ways to specify conformance for documents involving multiple namespaces.
The following example shows the way in which XHTML 1.0 could be used in conjunction with the MathML Recommendation:
  <title>A Math Example</title>
The following is MathML markup:
 <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-MathML"> <apply> <log/> <logbase> <cn> 3 </cn> </logbase> <ci> x </ci> </apply> </math>
The following example shows the way in which XHTML 1.0 markup could be incorporated into another XML namespace:
<?xml version="1.0"?>  <book xmlns='urn:loc.gov:books' xmlns:isbn='urn:ISBN:0-395-36341-6'> <title>Cheaper by the Dozen</title> <isbn:number>1568491379</isbn:number> <notes>
 This is also available online.
 </notes> </book>
A conforming user agent must meet all of the following criteria:
Due to the fact that XHTML is an XML application, certain practices that were perfectly legal in SGML-based HTML 4.0 [HTML] must be changed.
Well-formedness is a new concept introduced by [XML]. Essentially this means that all elements must either have closing tags or be written in a special form (as described below), and that all the elements must nest.
Although overlapping is illegal in SGML, it was widely tolerated in SGML-based browsers.

here is an emphasized paragraph.

here is an emphasized paragraph.

XHTML documents must use lower case for all HTML element and attribute names. This difference is necessary because XML is case-sensitive e.g.
 and
 are different tags.
In SGML-based HTML 4.0 certain elements were permitted to omit
the end tag; with the elements that followed implying closure.
This omission is not permitted in XML-based XHTML. All elements
other than those declared in the DTD as EMPTY
must
have an end tag.

here is a paragraph.

here is another paragraph.

here is a paragraph.
here is another paragraph.
All attribute values must be quoted, even those which appear to be numeric.

XML does not support attribute minimization. Attribute-value
pairs must be written in full. Attribute names such as
compact
and checked
cannot occur in elements
without their value being specified.

Empty elements must end with />
. For instance,

or

.

In attribute values, user agents will strip leading and trailing white-space from attribute values and and map sequences of one or more white space characters (including line breaks) to a single inter-word space (an ASCII space character for western scripts). See Section 3.3.3 of [XML].
In XHTML, the script and style elements are declared as having
#PCDATA
content. As a result, <
and
&
will be treated as the start of markup, and
entities such as <
and &
will be recognized as entity references by the XML processor to
<
and &
respectively. Wrapping
the content of the script or style element within a
CDATA
marked section avoids the expansion of these
entities.

CDATA
sections are recognized by the XML
processor and appear as nodes in the Document Object Model, see
Section 1.3 of the DOM Level 1 Recommendation [DOM].
An alternative is to use external script and style documents.
SGML gives the writer of a DTD the ability to exclude specific elements from being contained within an element. Such prohibitions (called "exclusions") are not possible in XML.
For example, the HTML 4.0 Strict DTD forbids the nesting of an
'a
' element within another 'a
' element
to any descendant depth. It is not possible to spell out such
prohibitions in XML. Even though these prohibitions cannot be
defined in the DTD, certain elements should not be nested. A
summary of such elements and the elements that should not be
nested in them is found in the normative
Appendix B.
The current HTML 4.0 DTDs do not reflect errata changes made to the HTML 4.0 Recommendation [HTML]. The XHTML DTDs incorporate these errata, and thus errors in HTML 4.0 DTDs are corrected in the XHTML DTDs. The errata can be found at [ERRATA].
HTML Tidy is W3C sample code that automatically converts existing web content to XHTML. It can cope with a wide range of markup errors, and offers a means to smoothly transition existing HTML documents to XHTML. For more information, see [TIDY].
Although there is no requirement for XHTML 1.0 documents to be compatible with existing user agents, in practice this is easy to accomplish. Guidelines for creating compatible documents can be found in Appendix C.
Work is currently in progress to determine how Internet media types [RFC2046] should be used when delivering XML documents, and this will be the subject of a future W3C document.
Since XHTML is an XML application, XHTML documents may be
delivered using the Internet media type text/xml
.
Additionally, since one of the aims of XHTML is to allow
migration from existing HTML user agents to XHTML user agents,
XHTML documents may be delivered using the Internet media type
text/html
. In this case, it is recommended that the
documents follow the guidelines in Appendix
C to decrease the chance of document processing failure.
XHTML 1.0 provides the basis for a family of document types that will extend and subset XHTML, in order to support a wide range of new devices and applications, by defining modules and specifying a mechanism for combining these modules. This mechanism will enable the extension and subsetting of XHTML 1.0 in a uniform way through the definition of new modules.
As the use of XHTML moves from the traditional desktop user agents to other platforms, it is clear that not all of the XHTML elements will be required on all platforms. For example a hand held device or a cell-phone may only support a subset of XHTML elements.
The process of modularization breaks XHTML up into a series of smaller element sets. These elements can then be recombined to meet the needs of different communities.
These modules will be defined in a later W3C document.
Modularization brings with it several advantages:
It provides a formal mechanism for subsetting XHTML.
It provides a formal mechanism for extending XHTML.
It simplifies the transformation between document types.
It promotes the reuse of modules in new document types.
A document profile specifies the syntax and semantics of a set of documents. Conformance to a document profile provides a basis for interoperability guarantees. The document profile specifies the facilities required to process documents of that type, e.g. which image formats can be used, levels of scripting, style sheet support, and so on.
For product designers this enables various groups to define their own standard profile.
For authors this will obviate the need to write several different versions of documents for different clients.
For special groups such as chemists, medical doctors, or mathematicians this allows a special profile to be built using standard HTML elements plus a group of elements geared to the specialist's needs.
This appendix is normative.
These DTDs and entity sets form a normative part of this specification. The complete set of DTD files together with an XML declaration and SGML Open Catalog is included in the zip file for this specification.
These DTDs approximate the HTML 4.0 DTDs. It is likely that when the DTDs are modularized, a method of DTD construction will be employed that corresponds more closely to HTML 4.0.
The XHTML entity sets are the same as for HTML 4.0, but have
been modified to be valid XML 1.0 entity declarations. Note the
entity for the Euro currency sign (€
or
€
or €
) is defined
as part of the special characters.
This appendix is normative.
The following elements have prohibitions on which elements they can contain (see Section 4.1.9). This prohibition applies to all depths of nesting, i.e. it contains all the descendant elements.
a |
cannot contain other a elements. |
|---|---|
pre |
cannot contain the img , object ,
big , small , sub , or
sup elements. |
button |
cannot contain the input , select ,
textarea , label , button ,
form , fieldset , iframe or
isindex elements. |
label |
cannot contain other label elements. |
form |
cannot contain other form elements. |
This appendix is informative.
This appendix summarizes design guidelines for authors who wish their XHTML documents to render on existing HTML user agents.
Be aware that processing instructions are rendered on some user agents.
Include a space before the trailing /
and
>
of empty elements, e.g.

,

and
. Also, use the
minimized tag syntax for empty elements, e.g.

, as the alternative syntax

allowed by XML
gives uncertain results in many existing user agents.
Given an empty instance of an element whose content model is
not EMPTY
(for example, an empty title or paragraph)
do not use the minimized form (e.g. use

and not

).
Use external style sheets if your style sheet uses
<
or &
or ]]>
. Use
external scripts if your script uses <
or
&
or ]]>
.
Avoid line breaks and multiple white space characters within attribute values. These are handled inconsistently by user agents.
Don't include more than one isindex
element in
the document head
. The isindex
element
is deprecated in favor of the input
element.
Use both the lang
and xml:lang
attributes when specifying the language of an element. The value
of the xml:lang
attribute takes precedence.
In XML, URIs that end with fragment identifiers of the form
"#foo"
do not refer to elements with an attribute
name="foo"
; rather, they refer to elements with an
attribute defined to be of type ID
, e.g., the
id
attribute in HTML 4.0. Many existing HTML clients don't
support the use of ID
-type attributes in this way,
so if you want to be able to process the document on HTML
clients, you may wish to supply both id
and
name
values on the target element, e.g., ...
To specify a character encoding in the document, use both the
encoding attribute specification on the xml declaration (e.g.
<?xml version="1.0"
encoding="EUC-JP"?>
) and a meta http-equiv statement
(e.g. <meta http-equiv="Content-type"
content='text/html; charset="EUC-JP"' />
). The
value of the encoding attribute of the xml processing instruction
takes precedence.
Some HTML user agents are unable to interpret boolean
attributes when these appear in their full (non-minimized) form,
as required by XML 1.0. Note this problem doesn't effect user
agents compliant with HTML 4.0. The following attributes are
involved: compact
, nowrap
,
ismap
, declare
, noshade
,
checked
, disabled
, readonly
,
multiple
, selected
,
noresize
, defer
.

Looping in Ruby vs. Looping in JavaScript and Ruby hash vs. JavaScript Objects
JavaScript implements 2 looping constructs. These are 'for' and 'while' loops, there is also a 3rd which is variant of the while loop and that is the 'do..while'
Ruby implements 3. These include for , while, and until.
Ruby, additionally has a group of looping methods that enable you to loop through each of the elements in a collection. The collection is a group of enumerable elements.
These iterators include the 'each' iterator.
The syntax for the use of the iterator is ...
collection.each do |variable|
code
end
In JavaScript, there is no 'each' iterator but with the use of the 'for' you can iterate over a group of elements much like you would if you used the .each iterator method in Ruby.
The functionality of looping constructs in Ruby, 'for ', While', and 'Until', can all be implemented in JavaScript by using JavaScripts for, while and Do..While loops
In JavaScript the for loop has the general syntax...
for (var list_pointer ; condition ; increment_value){ code block };
The 'var list_pointer', and 'increment_value' are actually optional and can be set elsewhere. this feature makes the 'for' loop in JavaScript very flexible and configurable.
Below is an example of this feature
myPointer = 0;
for (; myPointer <= 20 ;){
console.log('Pointer is ' + myPointer)
myPointer += 2 //increment by 2
};
equivalent Ruby code using the 'step' iterator
[0..20].step do |myPointer|
puts "Pointer is #{myPointer}"
end

| < Day Day Up > |
7.1. Using TabsTabs provide an easy way to do some simple formatting. While we were revising this book, we found that the way Emacs handles tabs has changed a great deal. This section describes first how Emacs works by default and then discusses what you can do to change the default behavior to meet your needs. 7.1.1 How Emacs 21 Handles Tabs by DefaultIf you open a new file in text mode, tabs are set every eight spaces by default. (Programming modes have their own indentation behavior; see Chapter 9 for details.)
Watch what happens when we type a sentence. The default tab stops change automatically.
Every time you press Tab, Emacs moves the cursor under the next word. This is the behavior that many people expect when writing code. Neatly lined up code is easier to read. As we experimented with this feature, we would tab across under each word, and press Enter. What happens next is surprising if you are not expecting it. Emacs considers that newline to be the only character you typed on the line, so pressing Tab on a subsequent line brings you nearly to the end of the line.
If you press Enter but don't press Tab at all, the indentation level moves back to the left margin. Changing tabs to align with each word can be helpful, if, for example, you're typing tables. However, the default tab behavior may not be helpful to you in all situations. If you are interested in changing the default behavior, read on and we'll describe how to get Emacs to do what you want it to do. 7.1.2 Changing Tab StopsBy default (and if text is not lining up with some previous line of text), tabs are set every eight characters. Emacs allows you to change the positions of the tab stops. To change the tab stops, type M-x edit-tab-stops. A *Tab Stops* buffer appears.
The colons in the first line of the display show you where tab stops are currently located. The next two lines form a ruler that shows each character position on the line. To insert a tab, use C-f to move to the desired column, and then type a colon ( : ). To delete a tab, move to the desired tab, and press Space. The *Tab Stops* buffer is in overwrite mode, so these changes won't change the position of other tabs. Make sure that you do all your editing in the first line of the display. Changes made to the other lines won't have any effect. When you're satisfied with the tab stops, press C-c C-c to install them. If you don't make any changes, press C-c C-c to exit the buffer. If you make some changes and then decide you don't want them after all, kill the buffer by typing C-x k Enter. The default tab stops remain in effect. If you press C-c C-c to install them, the new tab settings affect all buffers that you create but remain in effect for this Emacs session only. Again, it may well appear to you that this feature doesn't work as you would expect. Because Emacs's default behavior tries to align with preceding lines, changing tab stops really affects only the first line of any buffer. In this example, we set the first tab at column 51, pressed C-c C-c to install the tab stops, and started a new buffer. Pressing Tab at the beginning of the buffer moves the cursor immediately to column 51. That works fine.
Now we press Tab a few more times, followed by Enter to move to a new line. When we press Tab on the second line, Emacs views the newline as the only item on the last line. Pressing Tab moves us right to the end of the line.
As you can see, changing tab stops in this way is of limited efficacy if you're going to add blank lines between rows of your table or whatever you're typing. You'd have to work around this by adding blank lines after typing the whole table, perhaps using a macro as described in Chapter 6. 7.1.3 What if You Want Literal Tabs?Let's say that all this tab finery is getting on your nerves. You don't want context-sensitive indenting; you don't even want to change tab stops. There is a way to make Emacs treat tabs just like a regular old typewriter did, moving over eight characters at a time.[1]
To insert rigid, typewriter-style tabs, press C-q Tab. In theory, this should insert a tab character into the file, which would look like ^I. In practice, it moves the cursor forward rigidly eight columns.
C-q Tab does in fact insert a tab character in the file. You can check that by erasing it with a single press of the Del key. 7.1.4 Changing Tab WidthOne problem with tabs is that there is no universal definition of what a tab means. In vi, the default tab width is four columns versus eight columns in Emacs. Further, Unix generally favors eight columns for tabs while some operating systems tend to use four spaces. Emacs uses eight columns by default no matter what platform it's running on. If you view another user's file in Emacs, Emacs interprets the tabs as eight columns each, throwing things off. For this reason, you might want to set your tab default to four columns by adding this line to your .emacs file: (setq-default tab-width 4) You have to press C-q Tab to have the modified tab width take effect. 7.1.5 Tabs and SpacesAnother characteristic of Emacs's default behavior is the fact that it may insert a combination of tabs and spaces when you press Tab. Try to erase a few "tabs" and you'll see that often it isn't one character, but the equivalent number of spaces or a combination of tabs and spaces. Of course, this largely depends on the tab stops compared to setting of the tab-width variable. If you set tab stops that are multiples of six while you have a tab-width of 4 or 8, Emacs is going to have to use a combination of tabs and spaces to achieve the desired tab stops. If you want Emacs to insert spaces for indentation rather than tab characters, add this line to your .emacs file: (setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil) With this setting, Emacs inserts only spaces when you press Tab. Pressing C-q Tab instead inserts a literal tab character. It's safe to say you won't enter tab characters accidentally with this setting. 7.1.6 Changing Tabs to Spaces (and Vice Versa)We've just talked about a way to make sure that Emacs inserts spaces instead of tabs. But what if you inherit a file and it has tabs that you want to change to spaces? Emacs provides a command to banish tabs from your files. You can use tabs for editing and then convert all of the tabs to the appropriate number of spaces so that the appearance of your file doesn't change. Unlike tabs, a space is almost always well defined. The command for eliminating tabs is M-x untabify. There's a corresponding command to convert spaces into tabs: tabify. However, we trust that you'll take our advice and forget about it. The untabify command works on a region. Therefore, to use it, you must put the mark somewhere in the buffer (preferably at the beginning), move to some other place in the buffer (preferably the end), and type M-x untabify Enter. The command C-x h (for mark-whole-buffer) automatically puts the cursor at the beginning of the buffer and the mark at the end. It makes untabification a bit easier because you can do it all at once with the simple sequence C-x h M-x untabify Enter. Table 7-1 shows the tab commands we've covered in this section.

If you do any web development at all, you need to be
across at least one of the big players. These technologies
are changing the entire industry and even if you don't
plan on implementing them, you should at least understand
what they are and why they're useful.

--- layout: post title: On Simplicity published: true meta: posterous_60e8ef2b7d9ddd23e14a941a8878b49c_post_id: "113935726" posterous_60e8ef2b7d9ddd23e14a941a8878b49c_permalink: http://maxlynchmadison.posterous.com/on-simplicity tags: [] type: post status: publish --- One has achieved simplicity when they have created a unit product for a given problem. One 140 character messaging application, one single-button touch screen iOS based smartphone, one side-scroller game with a red-clothes Italian plumber.
If you can look at your product and say that it embodies the escence of what your problem is, you have created something simple. It can have many features, or just a few. Like a fixed gear bike or or 21 speed road bike, based on the real-world requirements each is a simple solution to their respective task. When trying to create something simple, strive not to create something feature-less, but rather the emodiment of the requirements. If your product has grown outside of the required bounds, it may have lost its simplicity.
