<Text-field bookmark="info" style="Heading 2" layout="Heading 2">Description</Text-field>The Seq command is a parallel implementation of the seq command. For a complete description of the calling sequences of Seq see the seq help page.Seq is implemented using the Task programming model.Seq attempts to determine how to divide the input into separate tasks to spread the work across all available cores. However in some situations Seq may not choose the optimal size. In particular a small number of long running tasks may not be spread evenly over all threads. In this case, you can specify the maximum task size using the tasksize option. Seq will divide the input into tasks that compute at most tasksize elements within a single task.

I have another more specific question about passing data between forms in VB.net
I have a form with over 50 variables that I need to access on a second form and if i followed the method above, my form 2 will end up way too long and time consuming.
I'm making a complex calculation software that prompts user inputs values and calculates all those unknown variables. I need to display all the resulting values in the 2nd form. and from the 2nd form, i want to give the users an option to export all those values to an ms Excel sheet.
Here is an example of what I did in reference to the guide from the above link, Is there anyway to group the multiple properties into one for form2?
Feel free to copy and paste the code.
'form1 with a button and textbox Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim Obj1, Obj2 As New Form2 Dim TDX, TBX, a As Decimal a = TextBox1.Text 'user input value b = 1 + a c = 2 + a Obj1.TDX = b Obj2.TBX = c Obj1.Show() Obj2.Show() End Sub End Class
'form2: 2 labels Public Class Form2 Public _b, _c As Decimal Public Property [b]() As Decimal Get Return _b End Get Set(ByVal b As Decimal) _b = b End Set End Property Public Property [c]() As Decimal Get Return _c End Get Set(ByVal c As Decimal) _c = c End Set End Property Private Sub Form2_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Label1.Text = _b Label2.Text = _c End Sub End Class

Members of Nightingale are trained especially in the use of medicinal, alchemical and herbal concoctions. Highly sought after as healers during violent conflicts for their ability to set up and maintain sanitary facilities in the field, Nightingales are driven and focused, though primarily on others.
Potions are not the only tool employed by the association, which also teaches its members advanced forms of blood magic, imminently effective in healing, though in desperate times these practices are whispered to sometimes be employed towards other, more sinister uses than mending the body.


Map asm instructions back to source code
I work in the embedded sector, where certifying our software can involve juxtaposing specific lines of assembly with their respective source code.
For example, would it be possible, using llvm/clang, to dump all basic blocks containing condition instructions and their corresponding source lines?
I don't think are any builtin ways to do this but I can think of two things that might be of use or helpful when writing a tool that would do such a thing:
Firstly, objdump (both GNU and llvm-objdump) support outputting assembly output and mapping it back to the original source code as long as you are compiling with debug information. As an example for llvm-objdump this is the command line I often use for that purpose: llvm-objdump -C --line-numbers --x86-asm-syntax=intel --no-leading-addr --no-show-raw-insn <executable>. It will output the assembly code and interleave in comments to which line in which file the subsequent instructions refer to. One could likely parse this format automatically.
Possibly easier would be to get the LLVM IR produced by clang. Every LLVM IR instruction has a debug location metadata attached to it. LLVMs C++ API (and I am assuming C API), provides many ways to walk through the IR as well as to read the line location of an instruction.
This disadvantage of the LLVM IR approach might be that eg. a branch in LLVM IR might not cleanly map to a branch in the generated assembly. Generally speaking it would at that point not contain any optimizations and/or instruction selection information done by the target specific backend. (imagine a branch in LLVM IR, being compiled to a cmov on x86 eg.)
The disadvantage of the llvm-objdump approach would be that you at the very least need to parse the output yourself to get the source locations in the comments. I sadly have no clue how reuseable the LLVM assembler API is and whether you can get a list of instructions from there that would allow you to iterate over the instructions and search for eg. branch instructions, that is something to check if you'd take that approach.
Hope this helps
Thanks for the reply, Zero.
Today, we use a regex-based parser on interleaved src/asm. But the implementation is unreadable, unmaintainable, and untested. It is also supporting different "flavors" of asm.
LLVM IR
As you said, it is not guaranteed to map 1:1 with the emitted assembly. We require all assembly branches to be tracked, unfortunately.
I will look at the LLVM assembler API to see if it can be reused somehow. Ideally there exists some library that simply takes asm as input, and exposes a "walkable" list of sections/instructions.


High Availability
A high availability (HA) deployment of two Citrix ADC appliances can provide uninterrupted operation in any transaction. With one appliance configured as the primary node and the other as the secondary node, the primary node accepts connections and manages servers while the secondary node monitors the primary. If, for any reason, the primary node is unable to accept connections, the secondary node takes over.
The secondary node monitors the primary by sending periodic messages (often called heartbeat messages or health checks) to determine whether the primary node is accepting connections. If a health check fails, the secondary node retries the connection for a specified period, after which it determines that the primary node is not functioning normally. The secondary node then takes over for the primary (a process called failover).
After a failover, all clients must reestablish their connections to the managed servers, but the session persistence rules are maintained as they were before the failover.
With Web server logging persistence enabled, no log data is lost due to the failover. For logging persistence to be enabled, the log server configuration must carry entries for both systems in the log.conf file.
The following figure shows a network configuration with an HA pair.
Figure 1. Citrix ADC Appliances in a High Availability Configuration
localized image
To configure HA, you might want to begin by creating a basic setup, with both nodes in the same subnet. You can then customize the intervals at which the nodes communicate health-check information, the process by which nodes maintain synchronization, and the propagation of commands from the primary to the secondary. You can configure fail-safe mode to prevent a situation in which neither node is primary. If your environment includes devices that do not accept Citrix ADC gratuitous ARP messages, you should configure virtual MAC addresses. When you are ready for a more complex configuration, you can configure HA nodes in different subnets.
To improve the reliability of your HA setup, you can configure route monitors and create redundant links. In some situations, such as when troubleshooting or performing maintenance tasks, you might want to force a node to fail over (assign primary status to the other node), or you might want to force the secondary node to stay secondary or the primary node to stay primary.

Researchers say three of Switzerland's most iconic animal species spend more time at higher elevations each autumn than they did in the past due to climate warming.This content was published on July 1, 2017 - 15:00
An international research team led by the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL) studied data for the Swiss ibex, goat-like chamois, and red deer from 1991 to 2013.
They found the animals lived an average of 135, 90 and 80 metres higher, respectively, than previously recorded.
The data published in the journal Ecosphere in April came from the canton of Graubünden's Hunting and Fishing Authority, which kept records for 230,000 locations where the species were hunted.
The researchers concluded the animals took to higher elevations because of rising temperatures. In the past two decades, average temperatures in the prime hunting months of September and October rose 1.3°C in Graubünden.
It's normal for animal behaviour to vary from year to year, because of hunters, weather or climate. Dry, warmer winters make it easier on the animals, even at higher elevations.
Until now, scientists found mostly reptiles and insects shifting to higher, cooler habitats in response to climate change.
"This data set is unique and shows that even large, warm-blooded species react to rising ambient temperatures", said study co-author Kurt Bollmann of WSL's Conservation Biology research group in a statement on Thursday.
While these data suggest that the ibex, chamois and red deer are responding behaviourally in reaction to climate change in Switzerland, it's not yet known what the long-term consequences of such a trend might be in terms of populations.
However, as study co-author Hannes Jenny of Graubünden's Hunting and Fishing Authority pointed out in a statement: "Consistent, precise and continuous documentation of kill sites is an important and valuable basis for future research on the impact of climate change on large game species".

Abstract
The coastal uplift(approximately 40 to 60 centimeters) associated with the Chilean earthquake of 3 March 1985 caused extensive mortality of intertidal organisms at the Estación Costera de Investigaciones Marinas, Las Cruces. The kelp belt of the laminarian Lessonia nigrescens was particularly affected. Most of the primary space liberated at the upper border of this belt was invaded by species of barnacles, which showed an opportunistic colonization strategy. Drastic modifications in the environment such as coastal uplift, subsidence, or the effects of the El Niño phenomenon are characteristic of the southern Pacific. Modifications in the marine ecosystem that generate catastrophic and widespread mortalities of intertidal organisms can affect species composition, diversity, or local biogeography.

Roger Fenton's well known photograph, "The Valley of the Shadow of Death"Documentary filmmaker Errol Morris may have uncovered the world's oldest staged photograph, a wartime image taken in 1855.
Radiolab spoke with Morris, who unleashed his legendary attention to detail upon Roger Fenton's renowned photo, "The Valley of the Shadow of Death," considered to be one of the oldest known photographic images of warfare.
The photo was taken during the Crimean War (_PHONE_) and shows a road littered with cannonballs. The Crimean War was a massive conflict that saw Russia battling with Britain, France, Sardinia and the remnants of the Ottoman Empire for control over the declining Ottoman Empire.
The Crimean War itself is arguably history's first "modern" war, featuring new communications technology (the telegraph) and weaponry, along with the use of photography. And Fenton's photographs taken during the war are considered to be some of the earliest ever to document warfare.
"[I]t turns out there were actually two photos--both taken from the same spot over 150 years ago. One image famously shows a road littered with cannonballs, while the other shows the same road with no cannonballs (they're off to the side in ditches). Which one came first? And why would the cannonballs have been moved?"
Morris has written a series of blog posts about his investigation for the New York Times, in which he explains how the photo's history first captured his interest after reading a book by Susan Sontag that flatly alleges Fenton staged the photograph.
As part of his extensive efforts to uncover whether the photo was staged, Morris traveled to Crimea and consulted with optical engineer Dennis Purcell and five historians.
The historians were split on whether the photo was staged, with some arguing that the cannonballs are missing in the second photo because soldiers were recycling them to fire back at Russian forces.
Eventually, Purcell and Morris were able to reach a definitive conclusion about whether the photo was faked, by flipping the two photographs over and over. Eventually, they realized that pebbles on the left side of the road appeared to move in the two photographs. From the direction of the rocks falling, Morris was able to sequence the two photographs. "The one with the cannonballs on the road was the second picture," Morris said.
In other words, the photo with no cannonballs on the road is the original picture. Fenton and his assistants rolled the cannonballs downhill and placed them along the road.
"Whoever was helping him would have walked along the side of the road and moved the cannonballs down to the side of the road. It's gravity." Morris said.
In other words, Susan Sontag was right. "But for the wrong reasons," Morris said.
While calling Fenton a "coward," Morris acknowledges he doesn't know exactly why the photographer staged his shot. But Purcell has his own opinion, saying Fenton was aiming for the "emotional truth" of the nearby battlefields.
"It's obvious why he did it; to make it look like the way it felt," Purcell said.

Determine and monitor the docking state and type
Android devices can be docked into several different kinds of docks. These include car or home docks and digital versus analog docks. The dock-state is typically closely linked to the charging state as many docks provide power to docked devices.
How the dock-state of the phone affects your update rate depends on your app. You may choose to increase the update frequency of a sports center app when it's in the desktop dock, or disable your updates completely if the device is car docked. Conversely, you may choose to maximize your updates while car docked if your background service is updating traffic conditions.
The dock state is also broadcast as a sticky Intent, allowing you to query if the device is docked or not, and if so, in which kind of dock.
Determine the current docking state
The dock-state details are included as an extra in a sticky broadcast of the ACTION_DOCK_EVENT action. Because it's sticky, you can simply call registerReceiver(), passing in null as the broadcast receiver. The following snippet shows how to complete this process:
val dockStatus: Intent? = IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_DOCK_EVENT).let { ifilter ->
 context.registerReceiver(null, ifilter)
IntentFilter ifilter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_DOCK_EVENT);
Intent dockStatus = context.registerReceiver(null, ifilter);
You can extract the current docking status from the EXTRA_DOCK_STATE extra:
val dockState: Int = dockStatus?.getIntExtra(EXTRA_DOCK_STATE, -1)?: -1
val isDocked: Boolean = dockState!= Intent.EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_UNDOCKED
int dockState = dockStatus.getIntExtra(EXTRA_DOCK_STATE, -1);
boolean isDocked = dockState!= Intent.EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_UNDOCKED;
Determine the current dock type
If a device is docked, it can be docked in any one of four different type of dock:
 - Car
 - Desk
 - Low-End (Analog) Desk
 - High-End (Digital) Desk
Note that the latter two options were only introduced to Android in API level 11, so it's good practice to check for all three where you are only interested in the type of dock rather than it being digital or analog specifically:
val isCar: Boolean = dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_CAR
val isDesk: Boolean = dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_DESK
 || dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_LE_DESK
 || dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_HE_DESK
boolean isCar = dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_CAR;
boolean isDesk = dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_DESK ||
 dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_LE_DESK ||
 dockState == EXTRA_DOCK_STATE_HE_DESK;

HARPER LANE, RADLETT3rd March 2021
CLOSURE OF HARPER LANE
Bloor Homes and the appointed contractor, ECL Civil Engineering, have recently undertaken work on behalf of the highway authority, Hertfordshire County Council (HCC) under S278 of the Highway Act 1980 at the junction between Harper Lane and Watling Street, Radlett. Following a transport assessment for the local road network associated with the Harperbury Park housing development, the junction had been identified as requiring significant upgrading to cater for existing and anticipated traffic flows.
Signalisation of the junction to regularise vehicle movements and provide a pedestrian link across the railway bridge had been designed in accordance with HCC's Highway Design Guidance and the detailed junction proposal vetted and approved thereafter by the County. All such works are the subject of Road Safety Audits; the procedures are a systematic process for checking the road safety implications of highway improvements and new road schemes. The sole objective of the Road Safety Audit process is to minimise future road accident occurrence and severity once the scheme has been built and the road comes into use. The Road Safety Audit had been undertaken by an independent third party and signed off by HCC.
The construction of the junction had also been built in accordance with the planning permission granted for the development (planning reference no. 5/19/1590), which following initial highway works in 2019 lead to an interim scheme being agreed and installed which is thereafter due to be monitored for a period of no less than 6 months.
At the request of HCC Highways department on safety grounds the newly formed junction was closed on Friday 26th February to enable a thorough review to be carried-out, following minor incidents that have occurred since opening.
Bloor Homes is working closely with HCC to amend the junction in order to mitigate the safety concerns for pedestrians about the junction that have been observed during the short operating period of the signalised junction. Bloor Homes is aware of the significant inconvenience caused by this re-closure and all efforts are being made to expedite the re-opening of the junction. This may be in a temporary form initially, to allow Harper Lane to re-open in the immediate future.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON SURFACE/SUBSURFACE WATER EXCHANGE IN ALTERNATE SANDBAR
Access this Article
The tendency in river management is to become more integrated in fluvial fan. Especially, the interaction of the surface and subsurface flow should be considered. The pool-riffle-pool sequences in a river with alternate sandbars govern the surface water profile and also subsurface flow in the river. Surface water flow usually changes near the alternate sandbar with high permeability due to the interaction of surface and subsurface flow. The study on the relationship of the upstream total discharge, the required minimum discharge for certain purpose (such as fishery, navigation), and the amount of leakage from surface to subsurface becomes very significant in the river management. As the initial framework, this problem is discussed in a river reach scale in this study. The required environmental discharge is assumed to be the minimum surface flow, and the relationship between leaking flux and the required upstream total discharge is discussed based on the result of flume experiment.

The Risky Business of Specimen Recovery

Wulfenite pocket
It took 18 hours and special tools to remove this wulfenite pocket without damaging its crystals. (Evan Jones specimen - Photo courtesy Bob Jones)
Story by Bob Jones
More often than not, when a crystal pocket is opened during mining, it contains loose crystals that have somehow detached from the matrix. There is any number of reasons for this to happen. Frost can be very destructive to near-surface crystal pockets. In pegmatite deposits, a pocket explosion can scatter crystals hither and yon. Open crystal pockets can be assaulted by hot solutions, which can etch or otherwise damage crystals.
Earthquakes undoubtedly play some role in pocket destruction. The normal activity of mining in hard rock, using explosives, is the most destructive of all.
In some cases, mining is done specifically to extract specimens for resale, and mining methods have to been designed to preserve the integrity of the crystals as they are being uncovered. This specimen mining requires costly modern equipment and techniques to achieve success.
Non-Invasive Mine Exploration
To begin with, before the wall rock in an old mine tunnel is actually breached, it can be examined in a couple of noninvasive ways. Gold miners use powerful metal detectors to locate an area that might prove fruitful. This saves a lot of wasteful mining of barren rock, and may even avoid the use of explosives. A good example of this modern approach is the famous Dragon gold specimen, from the Colorado Quartz mine. The gold's location, hidden within a tunnel wall, was detected with a metal detector. Very careful rock removal, though time-consuming, successfully extracted an amazing, beautifully crystallized gold specimen intact.
Bob at the Tequandama mine
Me on a dig at the Tequandama mine.
Metal detectors only work on metallic mineral specimens, but there is another machine that can be used to "peer" into a solid rock wall. You've seen this machine used to locate buried bodies on TV mystery shows: It is ground-penetrating radar. This remarkable unit can scan a tunnel wall, and the readings received can be studied for any anomalies in the solid rock. These can be changes in the type of rock or joints or, hopefully, pockets. The GPR does not detect crystals as such, but it indicates possibilities worth investigating. This technique was used in the search for rhodochrosite crystals in the Sweet Home mine, in Alma, Colorado.
Once a suspected pocket, is found what next? Drilling and blasting the rock is counterproductive. Today, we have ways to crack and remove rock that are far less destructive than the good old hammer and chisel.
In the good old days of underground mining, before dynamite and steel drills, miners had a quaint way of cracking rock and extracting ore. They used fire! To break up the rock and release an ore vein, miners would pile wood against the rock face, set it on fire to heat the rock, then quench the hot wall rock with water or vinegar, which caused the rock to crack. They could then insert chisels into these cracks and break out the ore. Of course, the health hazards posed by the fumes resulting from the fires underground, where ventilation was minimal, were simply ignored.
Trade Offs in Mining
With the advent of black powder, and later dynamite, mining could proceed at a much faster rate—but there was a cost. Using explosives is not the best way to expose delicate crystals. In Cosquez, Colombia, I watched miners recover gem emerald crystals in the Tecuandama mine without using explosives. They used an electrically powered drilling machine with what looked like an auger bit in it to make holes in the rock wall. They knew they were in fruitful areas when they could see small, brown parisite crystals in the white calcite. In the Colombian emerald deposits, this rare earth carbonate is a good indicator that emeralds are nearby.
I asked my guide how much dynamite they would be loading into those drill holes, and his answer was, "None". Later, it was explained to me that they tightly pack a special material into the drill holes. In a short period of time, this material begins to expand dramatically, and the pressure of the expansion cracks the rock around the drill holes.
The miners then use levers and bars to split and dislodge chunks of calcite and, hopefully, expose the emerald crystals.
I was very lucky to be taken to another part of the mine, where emeralds had already been exposed and were being removed by using a rock pick to chip away the calcite! The result was a handful of loose emerald crystals that were worth about $50,000.
At that same mine, I was approached by a miner carrying a rather large rock. In that rock was an absolutely gorgeous, deep-green emerald about 1½ inch long. It was a real beauty.
I asked the price and was quoted $35,000 right there at the mine. The interesting and surprising part was that, when the specimen was very carefully examined, you could tell the crystal had been removed and returned to the rock, but not before a narrow strip of green foil had been slipped under the otherwise very faintly green crystal.
Changes in Specimen Extraction
It is quite amazing what techniques are now used to extract specimens undamaged from solid rock without using explosives or even hammers! Explosives are still used to remove barren rock. When approaching a vein or potential crystal pocket area, the dynamite is put aside and out comes the diamond-tipped chainsaw. The saw starts cutting into the rock, but at a considerable distance from any suspected crystal pocket. The rock is gradually cut away to expose the crystal pocket as much as possible. Then, small power drills and chippers are used to gradually loosen the section of wall rock containing the crystal pocket. The intact pocket or crystals on matrix is taken to a workshop, where careful removal of the matrix trims the rock down to a manageable size.
Working in a mine that is well known for pockets of fragile, but gorgeous, wulfenite
Drill bit

crystals, my son Evan Jones and his mining partner, Mark Miterman, exposed a wonderful, 6-inch-wide pocket of bright-orange-red wulfenite blades in solid rock. Any attempt to break the pocket loose would have shattered the crystals, which break like thin glass. It was obvious they could not just hammer and chisel the pocket out. The rock had to be attacked at a distance from the pocket to preserve the integrity of the wulfenite crystals. At the time, they did not have the necessary tools to attack the wall surrounding the pocket. So while one fellow slept on site, the other collector went home and got what was needed to extract a large section of wall.
Some 18 hours after first exposing the wulfenite pocket, a section of wall weighing over 50 pounds and still firmly holding that wulfenite crystal pocket was removed and muscled up a series of ladders to the surface. From there, the rock was taken to a specimen preparation laboratory, where rock was carefully removed a little at a time using a small, diamond-bladed saw, followed by a small vibration chisel. The final specimen was then air blasted, using small plastic pellets that very slowly chipped away at the rock to shape the matrix and expose the wulfenite pocket to its best advantage. Through all this, not a single wulfenite blade was cracked or broken.
Shattered and Scattered Mineral Dreams
No matter how careful miners and specimen collectors are, damage happens. I've heard horror stories of miners drilling and blasting, only to find the contents of a huge crystal pocket shattered and scattered after the blast. A most interesting example is a fine specimen of native copper, which is on display at the A.E. Seaman Museum, at Michigan Tech, with the perfect impression of the business end of a drill bit. The drill bit bored right into the copper specimen, which the miner didn't know was there!
Even an overeager rockhound using a hammer to bang away at the surrounding wall of a
pocket can create havoc on already stressed crystals in that pocket. I have been guilty of that. On a group collecting trip underground at a lead-silver mine in the Patagonia Mountains of Arizona, we were looking for Japan Law-twinned quartzes, which were found in amazing sizes in this mine. In one old mine tunnel, we came across a partially exposed crystal pocket, in which a quite large pyrite crystal was nested. I didn't even bother to examine the wall rock before bringing out the hammer and chisel. I started to work away to expose the pocket, hoping to get behind it far enough so that the crystal could be extracted. It turned out that the wall rock was garnetiferous, extremely hard and solid.
Just a couple of blows with the hammer did the damage: The vibrations were transmitted right into the pyrite, which was probably under some stress. It literally exploded into brassy shards!
On the positive side, there are some amazing stories of crystals being separated from their original matrix and reunited days or even years later. When the very attractive stalactitic azurite specimens were discovered in the mine at Morenci, Arizona, pretty much all the long, fragile fingers of goethite, beautifully decorated with bright-blue azurite crystals, had broken away from the matrix. Specimen collectors realized that these remarkable beauties could be reunited with their matrix by carefully matching up the broken ends. Several dozen superbly repaired matrix specimens were the result, and collectors were

Learning Spaces in Africa
Critical Histories to 21st Century Challenges and Change
Ola Uduku Manchester School of Architecture
Monday 19 November
12:30pm Blackwells bookshop, University of Manchester
With a key UN Sustainable Development Goal for 2030 being to make basic education available to all the world's children, Learning Spaces in Africa explores the architectural, sociopolitical and economic policy factors that have contributed to school design, the main spaces for education and learning in Africa. It traces the development of school building design, focusing on Western and Southern Africa, from its emergence in the 19th century to the present day. Uduku's analysis draws attention to the past historic links of schools to development processes, from their early 19th century missionary origins to their re-emergence as development hubs in the 21st century. Learning Spaces in Africa uses this research as a basis to suggest fundamental changes to basic education, which respond to new technological advances, and constituencies in learning. Illustrated case studies describe the use of tablets in refugee community schools, "hole-in-the wall" learning and shared school-community learning spaces. This book will be beneficial for students, academics and those interested in the history of educational architecture and its effect on social development, particularly in Africa and with relevance to countries elsewhere in the emerging world.

Plaza Cuartel is a place with a rich and tragic history. Built by the Spaniards in the 1880's, it was used during World War 2 as a military camp by the Japanese occupying forces. Hundreds of American prisoners of war were detained on the site from 1942 to 1944, and used by the Japanese army to build the first airport on the island.
On December 14, 1944, fearing the invastion of Palawan by the Allied forces, the Japanese soldiers massacred 150 POW, forcing them into Plaza Cuartel trenches and setting them on fire. Only 11 survivors managed to escape. A commemorative plaque, historical displays and a sculpture are there to remember what is known today as the "Palawan massacre".

How to Load Multiple Files in Parallel in Azure Data Factory - Part 1
By: Koen Verbeeck | Comments (7) | Related: > Azure Data Factory
At our company we're using Azure Data Factory as the orchestrator for our data pipelines in Azure. We need to load flat files from various locations into an Azure SQL Database. The schema of the flat files can change per type of file and even the delimiter changes sometimes. Manually creating a dataset and a pipeline in ADF for each file is tedious and time consuming. Is there a better way to do this?
In Azure Data Factory, a dataset describes the schema and location of a data source, which are.csv files in this example. However, a dataset doesn't need to be so precise; it doesn't need to describe every column and its data type. You can also use it as just a placeholder for the.csv file type in general. For example, if you have two.csv files, the first with the comma as delimiter and the second one with the semicolon as delimiter, you can still use the same dataset. You only need to put a parameter on the definition of the delimiter.
Furthermore, using the For Each activity we can loop over metadata and load multiple files in parallel. When you combine both features, we can create a metadata-driven pipeline where we will load multiple types of flat file dynamically. In this tip, we will lay out the architecture for such a solution.
We're going to load 3 files stored in Azure Blob Storage into an Azure SQL DB. The files contain data about the top 250 movies. The first file contains the first 100 movies, using a semicolon:
The second file contains the next 200 movies, also with a semicolon:
The third file contains the last 50 movies. However, the file was created on a different system and there the comma was used as a delimiter:
The three files are stored inside an Azure Blob Container. The first two in a virtual folder called semicolon, the last file in a virtual folder named comma.
This is our source data. To be able to drive our data factory pipeline dynamically, we need metadata. This metadata is stored in a table using the key-value pair method. This allows us to story any type of metadata in the table. The table has the following schema:
CREATE TABLE dbo.Metadata_ADF( ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, SourceType VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL, ObjectName VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL, ObjectValue VARCHAR(1000) NOT NULL );
To load the files, we need the following metadata:
- The location in the container, aka the virtual folder.
- The delimiter used
- The destination table name
The following SQL scripts inserts the metadata into the table:
INSERT INTO dbo.[Metadata_ADF] ( [SourceType],[ObjectName],ObjectValue ) VALUES ('BlobContainer','semicolondata','semicolon'),('BlobContainer','commadata','comma'); INSERT INTO dbo.[Metadata_ADF] ( [SourceType],[ObjectName],ObjectValue ) VALUES ('Delimiter','semicolondata',';'),('Delimiter','commadata',','); INSERT INTO dbo.[Metadata_ADF] ( [SourceType],[ObjectName],ObjectValue ) VALUES ('SQLTable','semicolondata','topmovies_semicolon'),('SQLTable','commadata','topmovies_comma');
The destination tables are created using the following DDL:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[topmovies_semicolon]( [Index] [BIGINT] NULL, [MovieTitle] varchar(500) NULL ); CREATE TABLE [dbo].[topmovies_comma]( [Index] [BIGINT] NULL, [MovieTitle] varchar(500) NULL );
The ADF Pipeline
Step 1 – The Datasets
The first step is to add datasets to ADF. Instead of creating 4 datasets: 2 for blob storage and 2 for the SQL Server tables (each time one dataset for each format), we're only going to create 2 datasets. One for blob storage and one for SQL Server. For each dataset, the relevant attributes will be updated dynamically at runtime by parameters. Let's start with the blob dataset.
In the ADF editing environment, click on the ellipsis next to the datasets header to add a new dataset:
Choose Azure Blob Storage as the data store:
In the next screen, you need to choose the format of your data, which is DelimitedText in our example.
At the time of writing, this is new functionality. In older tips, such as Connect to On-premises Data in Azure Data Factory with the Self-hosted Integration Runtime - Part 2, you can see this step is not present when a dataset on blob storage is created.
Next, we need to specify a name and if the first row contains headers.
For the Linked service, you can either choose an existing service or create a new one (an example is given in this tip). In the next screen, click on Browse to choose the container.
Using the dialog, navigate to the correct container.
Once the dataset is created, go to the Schema tab.
Here we can specify the metadata of the columns. It might be possible that ADF automatically picked up some metadata about the columns, if a file was present. Since we want a truly dynamic dataset, we're going to clear all metadata.
For this to work, the destination table needs to have the exact same columns as the source files. Next, we add some parameters to the dataset in the Parameters tab. We need a parameter for the folder and a parameter for the delimiter:
In the Connection tab, we can assign the parameters to specific fields of the configuration. When you click for example in the Directory field, a link will appear to add dynamic content.
When you click on this link, you can simply select the parameter from the list:
This will add an expression to the text box at the top:
Click Finish to go back to the connection tab. Similarly, we can add a parameter for the delimiter. But first we have to check the Edit checkbox, so the dropdown changes into a text box.
When both parameters are assigned, the connection tab should look like this (observe there's no value specified for the file name):
We also need a dataset for our sink, which is SQL Server. Add a new dataset and choose Azure SQL Database as the data store:
Specify a name for the dataset, create a linked service or choose an existing one and do not import the schema. The table name can be left empty.
For this dataset, we need to create one parameter: the table name.
In the Connection tab, choose Edit beneath the table, specify dbo as the schema and add the parameter in the second box as the table name.
This concludes the first part of the tip. We have created a key-value pair table in SQL Server holding all of the metadata. This metadata will populate the parameters of the datasets we created. Stay tuned for the second part of this tip, where we will create the metadata-driven pipeline which will copy multiple blob files to a database at once.

What is iridology zones dark spot Psora Spots?
iridology zones dark spot kidney
iridology zones dark spot kidney
Location: Any location of the iris;
Appearance: Various shades of brown or black spots;
Symptoms: It indicates accumulations of toxins and is often an inherited weakness.
How to read iridology color?
Blue-Eyed Type (German: Lymphatic)
Description-White collaret (autonomic nerve wreath), solid blue or gray/blue color with no discoloration or psora (pigments). Related to the primary color blue and the spiritual aspect of health. Strong tendency towards Western phlegmatic (water) constitution and Chinese water, metal constitutions.

iridology dark brown eyes
iridology dark spots in eyes
iridology dark ring around pupil
iridology dark spots
iridology dark eyes
iridology dark ring around iris
iridology dark circle around iris
This is the "pure" blue eye that is found in people's of European descent. It usually accompanies a classic phlegmatic disposition, which means the person is prone to lymphatic disturbances and catarrh afflictions. This is probably due in part to the fact that people of European descent are frequently heavy consumers of dairy products. Blue-eyed people are also thought to have a greater tendency to accumulate uric acid in their bodies and to have kidney troubles. The body systems and parts that these people have to pay particular attention to are the following: Mucus membrane areas (upper respiratory tract, bronchioles, villi of lungs, digestive tract and the uro-genital tracts), lymphatic tissues (tonsils, appendix, spleen and lymph nodes) and membranes of the joints.
Health problems commonly found in people with the lymphatic constitution include the following: Sinus troubles, sore throats, tonsillitis, earaches, bronchitis, asthma, swollen lymph nodes, skin catarrh (eczema and dandruff), kidney weakness, arthritis and rheumatism.
Mixed-Eyed Type (German: Biliary)
Description-Discolorations or psora (drug spots) on top of a blue background (fiber structure is visible through color). Related to the primary color yellow and the mental aspect of health. Strong tendency towards Chinese wood, earth constitutions and the Western air constitution.
The blue/brown mixed eye has been linked by Iridologists with a disposition to biliary or hepatic (liver) troubles. It is believed that the colorations on top of the blue eye are a sign of toxicity in the body due to digestive problems. When the pigmentation is concentrated around the center of the eye, this is especially linked with digestive disturbances. Problems with the liver and other digestive organs can lead to further imbalances in the glandular and circulatory systems. Body systems and organs to pay particular attention to are as follows: The digestive system (stomach, pancreas, gall bladder and especially the liver) and the intestinal tract.
Common health problems Iridologists associate with this type are: Hypoglycemia, PMS, indigestion, gallstones, constipation, gas, toxicity of the digestive tract, anger and/or depression, difficulty getting to sleep followed by difficulty waking up in the morning, nausea, stiffness and achiness, headaches (especially migraines), food allergies, seasonal allergies and Candida.

Colors have strong meaning in this eye type:
Straw Yellow: Relates to the kidneys and suggests poor kidney function.
Neon Orange: Relates to the pancreas and suggests a tendency to blood sugar imbalances and problems with digesting (metabolizing) carbohydrates.
Dirty Orange: May relate to either the pancreas or the gallbladder. Suggests some tendency as neon orange, but may also suggest gall bladder problems. Look for other signs of gall bladder problems (marks in gallbladder zone or fatty deposits in whites.)
Dark Brown: Related to liver function.
Reddish Brown: Suggests breakdown of the blood and a need to work with blood purification and building. Possible problems with liver, spleen, and bone marrow.
Brown Eyed Type (German: Hematogenic)
Description-Pure brown eye with pigments covering iris fiber structure. Related to the primary color red and the physical aspect of health. Probably Chinese constitutional types: fire and earth. Probability related to Western fire and earth constitutions as well.
Pure brown eyes are difficult for Iridologists to read because a layer of pigment completely covers up the fiber structure of the eye. However, Iridologists have noted some general characteristics of brown-eyed people. First, they appear to be pre-disposed to imbalances in blood composition and hence to blood disorders. It has been suggested that they have a possible inherent inability to store adequate supplies of minerals. They may especially have problems with calcium metabolism. Specific systems and organs to pay particular attention to are: The circulatory system (heart, blood, blood vessels), the organs that make blood (liver, spleen, bone marrow), the digestive system and the endocrine glands.
Common health problems experienced by brown-eyed people include: Anemia, hardening of the arteries, all types of blood diseases, constriction and hardening of lymph tissue, possible reduced leukocytes in the blood, digestive troubles, mineral deficiencies and early breakdown of the endocrine glands.

Linearly polarized transparent dielectric resonator antenna (TDRA) transmitarray is designed and investigated for 12 GHz applications. A parametric study on the effect of solar-cell position on the radiation characteristics of the TDRA transmitarray. The unit cell consists of two TDRAs arranged back-to-back with one on either side of a perfect transparent conducting ground plane. The waveguide model is used to calculate the required compensation phase of each cell in the transmitarray. The radiation characteristics of a 9 × 9 linearly polarized transparent transmitarray antenna are investigated in different positions of solar-cell with respect to the DRA. The peak gain is 20.22 dB with a 1-dB gain bandwidth is more than 2 GHz (16.67%) for the TDRA transmitarray without solar-cell. The solar-cell is integrated with TDRA transmitarray with different positions for small satellite applications. The radiation characteristics of the transmitarray are simulated and calculated using the finite integral technique (FIT).

IBM has released the world's first laptop with "drop protection" in its line of Thinkpads.
In most cases with dropped laptops, you run the risk of losing information upon impact. This is due to the read/write head bouncing about the hard drive, overwriting data with junk.
To prevent this horrible event from taking place and most likely pissing you off, the Thinkpads will have an onboard accelerometer. An accelerometer is a device which simply detects, you guessed it, acceleration. It is of course usefull to know when the laptop is accelerating since objects that fall tend to do just that.
So the accelerometer detects the fall and in less than a tenth of a second, the read/write head will store itself safely away such as to prevent it from skidding across the disk, erasing and corrupting data in the process. This acts sort of like an airbag for your laptop.
Unfortunately, other areas of the laptop that usually are damaged in falls such as the keyboard and delicate LCD display are still unprotected. But hey, at least one will be able to retrieve their data in case the laptop becomes otherwise useless in a fall.

UC Berkeley is part of a California-based, six-university consortium that has been awarded $12 million by the National Institutes of Health to develop strategies for treating craniofacial defects, which affect millions of Americans.
The consortium, called the Center for Dental, Oral and Craniofacial Tissue and Organ Regeneration (C-DOCTOR), is a part of a broader $24 million effort to develop resources and strategies for regenerating dental, oral and craniofacial tissues that have been damaged by disease or injury.
Craniofacial defects have devastating effects on patients , both because vital sensory organs and brain are housed in the cranium and because the face is so important to a person's identity. Such defects also can lead to compromised general health.
C-DOCTOR's goal is to shepherd new therapies through preliminary studies and into human clinical trials. Funding for C-DOCTOR comes from the NIH's National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR).
Kevin Healy, professor in the College of Engineering, leads Berkeley's research efforts in C-DOCTOR. Other C-DOCTOR partners include UC San Francisco, University of Southern California, UC Davis, UCLA and Stanford. C-DOCTOR is seeking to establish industry partnerships, identify important clinical applications and evaluate mature tissue-regeneration technologies.
"The College of Engineering has had a long history in the area of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine," Healy said. "Faculty in the departments of bioengineering and materials science are at the forefront of cutting-edge research that will have a transformative impact on craniofacial tissue engineering. The C-DOCTOR funding provides the facilities and resources to support their activity, providing what is necessary to explore interdisciplinary collaborations to achieve the translational goals of the center."

Explore jet set Arachova this winter, and you will feel as if you have landed in the heart of a winter Mykonos. Arachova is a picturesque mountainous village that located on the foot of Mt. Parnassos in southern Greece. It is close enough to Athens to make it the perfect weekend getaway destination. Why not? It is famously known as the most cosmopolitan winter destination in Greece.
What to Do
Delphi is one of the most significant ancient Greek archaeological sites. Surrounded by the lush slopes of Mount Parnassos, this ancient Greek religious sanctuary was dedicated to the god Apollo. According to mythology, Apollo had placed a python or dragon to protect Delphi which was known to the ancients as the center or "navel of the Earth." During 6th century B.C., Delphi was an important religious center and symbol of unity of the ancient Greek world. Read More

LED vs. Incandescent Trailer Lights
There are many differences between LED Trailer Lights and incandescent trailer lights, including the life expectancy, shock factor, power consumption, and even safety issues.
The incandescent bulbs that were traditionally used for trailers are an actual bulb; however, the LED lamps are called so because they are not a bulb at all and do not use filaments. Filaments have been known to stretch after much use and will weaken, and could even fail, causing both safety and legal issues.
Another major difference between LED and incandescent lights is the ability to absorb vibrations from the road. The LED lamps tend to last longer in this way because they have better shock than bulbs to withstand much more road vibration without dying out. The expected life of the LED light is around one hundred thousand hours, which happens to be about six times as long as a traditional style trailer light bulb. This extra life is not only a money saver, but having the assurance it will last longer means one will feel safer out on the road.
In addition to a longer life, the LED lamp lights consume a significantly less amount of power than an incandescent light would. The amps used during use is only a tenth of what the traditional bulbs use. You may ask, why do I really care if it uses less power than a traditional bulb? The answer is when a light is using less power there is more power being distributed to mother equally important electrical needs.
One of the main reasons people have been switching to LED lamps is the issue of safety. When a brake is applied the LED lights instantly respond and provide a more focused and brighter illumination than the incandescent ones. It only takes a fraction of a second to get to almost full brightness, and this quicker light could be what saves your trailer from getting smashed into by another vehicle.
For these many important reasons, more people have been switching to LED lamps for their trailer lighting needs. It is all a matter of knowing the differences and deciding for yourself if it is worth the switch for you. When it comes to power consumption, longevity, and safety, the better trailer light is the LED lamps.

December 4, 2017 - How to Mess Up Your Opponent When Forced to Make a Weak Shot
No matter how much you train you will sometimes find yourself out of position and having to reach or lunge for a shot. It's not something you want to do; it's something you have to do in those hopefully not-too-often situations. Most players understand the importance of trying to keep the ball at least low in these situations. But there's a lot more you can do to win the point.
Just getting the ball back weakly might work at the lowest levels, but it doesn't work beyond that. Instead, you need to do something to make the shot tricky for the opponent so that he doesn't have an easy winner. Here are five ways to make the opponent uncomfortable. Some players will automatically argue that they are just trying to keep the ball in play and can't do any of these, but that's because they haven't tried and are still thinking like a beginner.
 1. Depth. By keeping the ball deep you keep the opponent farther away from his target (your side of the table) so that he's more likely to miss, you give yourself more time to react to his shot, and you cut off the extreme angles the opponent can attack to. That's a triple whammy.
 2. Angled placement. Even if you are reaching or lunging, you can aim your paddle to a wide corner, forcing your opponent to move and thereby increasing his chances of a mistake.
 3. Last-second change of direction. If you aim for one extreme angle, the opponent will likely move in that direction, and then, at the last second, you can go the other way, completely messing him up. Often this means aiming crosscourt, then going down the line.
 4. Spin. Even when lunging you can spin the ball. Putting a good topspin on the ball can be tricky for some, but even when reaching or lunging for the ball you can give the ball a good backspin. You can even put some sidespin on the ball. In some situations you can even let the ball drop below table level (where the opponent might not even see your contact) and sidespin the ball back, perhaps even faking the opposite sidespin after contact, which can catch the opponent off guard.
 5. Heavy no-spin. If you fake backspin but just meet the ball so it has little or no spin, you'll be surprised how many players lift it right off the table.

Why the London Government Pays the Queen An Axe, a Knife, 6 Horseshoes and 61 Nails Every Year
Every October at the Royal Courts of Justice in London, a bizarre ritual is carried out. That's when an axe, a knife, six horseshoes and precisely 61 nails are given to the Queen's treasurer as taxes on two pieces of property that came into the crown's possession in 1211 and 1235. The two parcels have been part of the crown's holdings for so long that no one knows exactly where they are. The tax rate on them, however, hasn't changed for centuries. One piece of property, known simply as The Moors, is quite far from London in Shropshire, England. Rent for this is a knife and an axe. The second piece of property is near the Royal Courts of Justice in London. The rent on this property was and still is six horseshoes and 61 nails. The yearly ceremony is rarely reported upon and not heavily attended by the public. Still, it's a centuries-old ceremony that has been in place for English monarchs.

Over the years many Uniface developers have created tools on top of the Uniface Repository. One tool that has been made by many, is one that looks for "dirty" objects: objects that were modified after they were last compiled successfully. In Uniface 9 such a tool would have been based on comparing the fields UTIMESTAMP (modification date of the source) and UCOMPSTAMP (compilation date of the source) of various Uniface Repository tables. In Uniface 10 this has changed, mainly to align the repository with the export format that has been optimized for version management:
 - The modification date of a development object source is only found in the main object. And yes, it is also updated when you change a sub-object. So if you change a modeled field, the UTIMESTAMP of the entity is updated.
 - The compilation date of a development object is no longer an attribute of the source code. It does not have much value to know when the source was last compiled, if you can't be sure that the compiled object was the result of that compilation. Someone may have copied a different compiled object to the output folder. The only real compilation date is that of the compiled object (file on disk or in a UAR).
Uniface 10.3 is the first release of Uniface 10 that is shipped with meta definitions: the new DICT model is published. So now you can re-engineer the tools that you made for Uniface 9. In order to make it easier to (re)write a tool, the $ude("exist") function has been enhanced to return the attributes of the compiled object (file on disk or in a UAR) such as the modification date.
Compiling objects because their source code has changed
It is not just components that require compilation. There are 14 types of development object that require compilation and generate a file in your resources. I have attached a sample tool that checks whether these objects are "dirty" and therefore require compilation. The tool gathers the source modification date from main development objects, and the compilation date of the compiled objects. In some cases, one main development object (such as a message library) results in many compiled objects (messages). The tool uses $ude("exist") to check the compilation timestamp of the compiled object and $ude("compile") to compile it. The attached export file contains a full project export, so when you open project WIZ_COMPILE, you will see the whole thing. You can download the export here: [download id="7581"] And here is a file with some test data for each object type: [download id="7585"] You will need the Uniface 10.3 DICT model to compile the tool. The new DICT model for Uniface 10.3 is delivered in umeta.xml in the uniface\misc folder of your development installation.
PLEASE NOTE: The sample tool does NOT take into account that a component may require compilation because a modeled entity or an IncludeScript has changed. See below.
Compiling components because a modeled entity has changed
Please note that the attached sample does NOT check if a component requires compilation because a modeled entity has changed. If you had this check in your Uniface 9 tooling, you also need to implement it in your new tooling. A Uniface 9 based example for this issue can be found here:
_URL_ You would need to simplify this for Uniface 10 because the modification date is only on the main development object.
Compiling objects because an IncludeScript has changed
Please note that the attached sample does NOT check if a development object requires compilation because an IncludeScript has changed. To implement this is quite tricky, as you would have to find the #INCLUDES within the IncludeScript code, and handle the fact that they can be nested. To correctly parse all of that might not be much faster than just compiling everything...

 1. Hi Theo, I think that's what the uniface powerusers are looking for to reduce their transition workload. Thanks a lot for this article and the examples, Uli
 2. Just another idea for powerusers (this solution doesn't need access to all the compiler output in ressources) : A shadow-entity (with all the PKs) which hosts the UCOMPSTAMP and a wrapper for $ude("compile") maintaining this information. The 10.3 IDE Custmization can provide this "MyCompile" option in the editor "Actions" menu
 3. Hi THEO NEESKENS, Thanks for your article. I think Uniface is doing things right. In particular, that's because Uniface keeps its customers up-to-date with the latest technology, but also allows them to migrate to this at their own pace.

2-Dimensional structures with swift optical response have several technological advantages, for example they could be used as components of ultrafast light modulators, photo-detectors, and optical switches. Here we report on the fast photo switching behavior of thin films of liquid phase exfoliated MoS 2, when excited with a continuous laser of λ=658nm (E=1.88eV), over a broad range of laser power. Transient photo-conductivity measurements, using an optical pump and THz probe (OPTP), reveal that photo carrier decay follows a bi-exponential time dependence, with decay times of the order of picoseconds, indicating that the photo carrier recombination occurs via trap states. The nature of variation of photocurrent with temperature confirms that the trap states are continuously distributed within the mobility gap in these thin film of MoS2, and play a vital role in influencing the overall photo response. Our findings provide a fundamental understanding of the photo-physics associated with optically active 2D materials and are crucial for developing advanced optoelectronic devices.

Since as an ungraded algebra, $R_n$ is the regular representation of $S_n$, we have $R_n \simeq \bigoplus_{\lambda \vdash n} V_{\lambda}^{f^{\lambda}}$, where $V_{\lambda}$ is the $S_n$-irrep indexed by the partition $\lambda$, and $f^{\lambda} := \mathrm{dim}(V_{\lambda})$. Recall that also $f^{\lambda} = \#$ Standard Young Tableaux (SYTs) of shape $\lambda$, and that we have the famous hook-length formula $f^{\lambda} = \frac{n!}{\prod_{u\in \lambda}h(u)}$, where $h(u)$ is the hook-length of the box $u\in \lambda$.
But we again get more by considering the grading on $R_n$. Namely, for a partition $\lambda\vdash n$, define the fake degree polynomial $f^{\lambda}(q)$ by $$f^{\lambda}(q) := \sum_{i \geq 0} \# \textrm{ (copies of $V_{\lambda}$ in the degree $i$ component of $R_n$)} \cdot q^i.$$ Note that $f^{\lambda}(q)$ is a $q$-analog of $f^{\lambda}$. Stanley (see Section 4 of the paper cited below and Enumerative Combinatorics, Vol. 2, 7.21.5) proved a $q$-analog of the hook-length formula: $f^{\lambda}(q) = q^{b(\lambda)} \frac{[n]!_q}{\prod_{u\in \lambda}[h(u)]}$, where $b(\lambda) := 0\lambda_1 + 1\lambda_2 + 2\lambda_3 + \cdots$. Furthermore, Lusztig gave a statistical formula for $f^{\lambda}(q)$. Namely, for an SYT $T$, a descent of $T$ is an entry $i$ for which $i+1$ is in a strictly lower row, and the major index of $T$, denoted $\mathrm{maj}(T)$, is a sum over all descents $i$ of $T$ of the value $i$. Then in unpublished work (again see Stanley's paper cited below), Lusztig showed that $f^{\lambda}(q) = \sum_{\substack{T \textrm{ a SYT}, \\ \mathrm{sh}(T) =\lambda}}q^{\mathrm{maj}(T)}$.
Now note that the decomposition $R_n \simeq \bigoplus_{\lambda \vdash n} V_{\lambda}^{f^{\lambda}}$ implies $[n]!_q = \sum_{\lambda\vdash n}f^{\lambda} \cdot f^{\lambda}(q)$, and hence due to Lusztig's result that the coefficient of $q^i$ in $[n]!_q$ is the sum over all SYT $T$ with $n$ boxes and with $\mathrm{maj}(T)=i$ of $f^{\mathrm{sh}(T)}$.
Here's where the connection to RSK comes in. Recall that the usual Robinson-Schensted (no Knuth!) algorithm is a bijection between permutations $w \in S_n$ and pairs $(P,Q)$ of n-boxed SYTs of the same shape. Usually $P$ is called the insertion tableau and $Q$ the recording tableau. It is not hard to see from the usual "insertion and bumping" description of R-S that the descents of $w$ are exactly the same as the descents of its recording tableau $Q$. In particular, their major indices are the same. Thus R-S proves bijectively that $$ \sum_{w \in S_n} q^{\mathrm{maj}(w)} = \sum_{\substack{T \textrm{ a SYT} \\ \textrm{with $n$ boxes}}} f^{\mathrm{sh}(T)} \cdot q^{\mathrm{maj}(T)},$$ where the RHS is the interpretation of $[n]!_q$ we just mentioned, and the LHS is the well-known one due to MacMahon mentioned in the original question.

For a simple but noncombinatorial proof of the unimodality of the coefficients of $[n]!_q$, see George E. Andrews, A theorem on reciprocal polynomials with applications to permutations and compositions. Amer. Math. Monthly 82 (1975), no. 8, 830–833.

After posting the question, I remembered an interpretation using formal characters of representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ that gives the shortest proof I know that $[n]!_q$ is unimodal.
Write $1+q+\cdots + q^{j-1}$ as $q^{(j-1)/2}(q^{-(j-1)/2} + q^{-(j-3)/2} + \cdots + q^{(j-1)/2})$ and substitute $q= Q^2$ to get $Q^{j-1}(Q^{-(j-1)} + Q^{-(j-3)} + \cdots + Q^{j-1})$. Hence
$$[n]!_q = Q^{\binom{n}{2}}( Q^{-1} + Q) ( Q^{-2} + 1 + Q^2) \ldots (Q^{-(n-1)} + Q^{-(n-3)} + \cdots + Q^{n-1}).$$
Up to the power of $Q$, the right-hand side is the formal character of the tensor product of the (unique) irreducible representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ of dimensions $2, 3, \ldots, n$. Since any formal character is a sum of the characters of irreducible representations, and each irreducible representation has a unimodal character, this proves that $[n!]_q$ is unimodal in $Q$, and hence in $q$.

 $\begingroup$ Each irreducible character is unimodal, but the sum may be non-unimodal. For example $V=V(2)+V(3)+V(3)$. Here dim$V_1=2$, dim$V_0=1=$ dim $V_2$. The even and odd parts of sum of unimodal characters would be unimodal. $\endgroup$ – ArB Oct 19 '20 at 13:20
There is a nice generalization to Catalan objects as follows.
Acyclic orientations of unit-interval graphs
Note that for the complete graph on $n$ vertices, the number of acyclic orientations weighted by ascents (edges oriented from smaller to larger label) is given by $[n]_q!$. Now, there are a Catalan number of unit interval graphs, which can be indexed by area sequences. The complete graph has area sequence $(0,1,2,\dotsc,n-1)$. The weighted sum over acyclic orientations of an unit interval graph with area sequence $(a_1,\dotsc,a_n)$ is given by the product $[a_1+1]_q\dotsb [a_n+1]_q$.
Summing all these polynomials over all $(n+1)^{-1}\binom{2n}{n}$ area sequences of length $n$ gives the $n$th Touchard-Riordan polynomial, which is defined as the sum over all perfect matchings of $2n$ vertices on a circle, weighted by


EXEC_SINGLE_NODE_ROWS_THRESHOLD Query Option (CDH 5.3 or higher only)
This setting controls the cutoff point (in terms of number of rows scanned) below which Impala treats a query as a "small" query, turning off optimizations such as parallel execution and native code generation. The overhead for these optimizations is applicable for queries involving substantial amounts of data, but it makes sense to skip them for queries involving tiny amounts of data. Reducing the overhead for small queries allows Impala to complete them more quickly, keeping admission control slots, CPU, memory, and so on available for resource-intensive queries.
Type: numeric
Default: 100
Usage notes: Typically, you increase the default value to make this optimization apply to more queries. If incorrect or corrupted table and column statistics cause Impala to apply this optimization incorrectly to queries that actually involve substantial work, you might see the queries being slower as a result of remote reads. In that case, recompute statistics with the COMPUTE STATS or COMPUTE INCREMENTAL STATS statement. If there is a problem collecting accurate statistics, you can turn this feature off by setting the value to -1.
Internal details:
In CDH 5.5 / Impala 2.3 and higher, where Impala supports the complex data types STRUCT, ARRAY, and MAP, if a query refers to any column of those types, the small-query optimization is turned off for that query regardless of the EXEC_SINGLE_NODE_ROWS_THRESHOLD setting.
For a query that is determined to be "small", all work is performed on the coordinator node. This might result in some I/O being performed by remote reads. The savings from not distributing the query work and not generating native code are expected to outweigh any overhead from the remote reads.
Added in: CDH 5.13
A common use case is to query just a few rows from a table to inspect typical data values. In this example, Impala does not parallelize the query or perform native code generation because the result set is guaranteed to be smaller than the threshold value from this query option:
SELECT * FROM enormous_table LIMIT 300;


Home/Iterative Map
An iterative map - also called an iterative function - is one where we take the output at each iteration and feed it back into calculate the next value, such as with population growth, where we take the previous population and feed it into the iterative function to calculate the current population and then that again will feed into the next iteration and so on.

SiC switch handles heat 100 degrees higher than silicon

In collaboration with Boeing, CPES researchers have been working on a silicon carbide (SiC) high power density motor drive (HDMC) designed to regulate and control the speed and torque of a motor. It takes in 230V, variable frequency, three-phase ac power, converts it to 650V dc internally, and then outputs up to 10kW three-phase ac to the high density permanent magnet synchronous motor developed in collaboration with the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The team has achieved a very good power-to-weight ratio, exceeding 2kW per pound.
The use of SiC enables the switch to handle temperatures of up to 250°C, 100°C higher than comparable silicon-based technology. The higher maximum temperature means that less space and weight needs to be devoted to heat management, increasing power density and improving the power-to-weight ratio.

Unrelenting cold weather persisted on New Year's Day. The Korea Meteorological Administration issued a cold weather alert for Seoul on Wednesday for the first time this winter.
The morning low in Seoul dipped to -14 degrees Celsius Wednesday and will fall to -16 degrees Thursday, the KMA predicted.
Cold weather alerts are issued when the morning low is expected to stay below -12 degrees Celsius for more than two days.
The freezing weather will persist in Seoul with morning temperatures at -14 degrees Friday, -11 degrees Saturday, and -7 degrees Sunday, the KMA forecast.
It attributed the current cold weather to a cold Siberian airmass spreading over to the Korean Peninsula.
Weatherman Chang Hyun-sik predicted the cold weather will persist until at least mid-January.
Meanwhile, December 2012 was the coldest in 45 years in Seoul, with average temperatures at -4.1 degrees during the month, down 4.5 degrees from previous years, the KMA said. The year 1967 saw the coldest December in Seoul with average temperatures at -4.9 degrees.

This policy guide note synthesises the findings of the final report for RP3038: Lower Income Barriers to Low Carbon Living. In summary:
- Broad engagement with lower income households, industry, government and other stakeholders reveals that energy deprivation is an increasing problem in Australia which impacts upon the social wellbeing of communities.
- There are a wide range of financial and non-financial barriers limiting the ability of lower income households to address energy deprivation.
- The government's approach to energy and support mechanisms varies from state to state and nationally, further exacerbating the problem.
- We present a range of policy recommendations across three categories, namely information provision, financial assistance, and regulatory controls.
