Q: Como acessar campos de uma classe mãe através de herança? Simplificando o que eu quero dizer, suponhamos que tenho uma classe Mãe:
public class Mãe {

    private String nome;   // Declarando o campo privado nome

    public Mãe(String _nome) {

        nome = _nome;   // Definindo o campo nome

    }

}

Agora, a classe filha:
public class Filha extends Mãe {   // Extendendo da classe Mãe

    public Filha(String _nome) {

        super(_nome);   // Chamando o construtor da classe Mãe

    }

}

Portanto, no construtor da classe Filha eu chamei o construtor da classe Mãe, certo? Então como eu faria, na classe Filha, para acessar o campo nome, da classe Mãe? Eu deveria por esse campo como público?

A: Olá! Sim, o super serve para acessar o construtor da classe Mãe. Para acessar os atributos você pode fazer da seguinte forma:
public class Filha extends Mãe {   // Extendendo da classe Mãe
    public Filha(String _nome) {
        System.out.println(this.nome) // Pega o atributo nome que está na classe mãe
    }
}

Porém o atributo deve estar como protected ou public para que possa ser acessado diretamente em classes filhas. O modificador de acesso private permite o acesso direto apenas a classe que declarou o atributo. O protected permite também para classes herdeiras e o public libera o acesso a todas.

Apple to assemble top-end iPhones in India
Apple will begin assembling its top-end iPhones in India through the local unit of Foxconn as early as 2019, the first time the Taiwanese contract manufacturer will have made the product in the country, a source told Reuters. Fred Katayama reports.
(Reuters) – Here's one way to skirt the blow from a trade war with China. A source tells Reuters Apple will begin assembling its most pricey iPhones in India. It'll do that through the local unit of the Taiwanese contract manufacturer, Foxconn. Those models will include the flagship iPhone X family.
Digital Trends editor-in-chief, Jeremy Kaplan:
DIGITAL TRENDS EDITOR-IN-CHIEF, JEREMY KAPLAN,
"India for a couple of reasons. For one, it's a huge market, and Apple's barely penetrated, largely because Apple sells a lot of very high end, expensive products. So in chance, this might lower the cost of things. For another thing, it's an opportunity to mitigate the over-reliance on China and on Asia in general. Bringing things down into India should perhaps mitigate some of that risk."
The source says assembly could start as early as 2019 at Foxconn's plant in the southern state of Tamil Nadu. That state's Industries Minister told Reuters Foxconn will invest roughly $350 million to expand its factory there, creating as many as 25,000 jobs.
It's not known if any of the iPhone assembly is being shifted from existing Foxconn plants in China. Expanding assembly beyond China is critical for Apple in its bid to reduce the risks of a U.S.-China trade war. Producing more phones locally will help it save costly duties. Until now, Apple had only been assembling its lower-cost SE and 6S models in India.

Q: rpm -V inner workings I have an rpm file that is used to install a package I made the package consists of java classes and shell scripts to run these java classes, in a .run file. So the rpm essentially only contains a foo.run which installs all the contents of the package. My question is then when I run the rpm -V command to verify that the rpm package has not become corrupt, will it be only verifying if the foo.run file has not become corrupt or if foo.class and foo.sh installed from the foo.run contained in the rpm package has not become corrupt?

A: When you run rpm -V packagename all files installed by packagename on your computer will be compared against the metadata in the RPM itself. The RPM itself has information about each file in the RPM (like md5sum, file size, permissions, owner, etc).
So, if your RPM contains the files foo.class or foo.sh then yes, those files will be verified.
If your script simply downloads those files from the internet when the script is run, then no, those files won't be verified because when the RPM was created no information about those files was stored.
Put another way: if you run rpm -qpl filename.rpm all the files listed there will be verified when you run rpm -V packagename because those are the files RPM knows about.

Sulla quadruplice radice del principio di ragion sufficiente (Ueber die vierfache Wurzel des Satzes vom zureichenden Grunde) è un trattatello del 1813 con il quale Arthur Schopenhauer si laureò nell'università di Jena  e che, in parte, costituisce la chiave di volta per la comprensione di tutto il suo sistema filosofico successivo.

Il titolo
Il titolo dell'opera, come dichiarato dall'autore stesso, intende riferirsi a «un'espressione comune di più conoscenze date a priori», conoscenze che di seguito si tenterà di illustrare. Basterà qui ricordare la definizione che Christian Wolff dà dello stesso principio di ragione sufficiente, definizione che Schopenhauer riprende in via provvisoria e che qui di seguito si riporta: «Niente è senza una ragione per la quale sia piuttosto che non sia», ovvero: niente è senza una ragione per cui sia. In buona sostanza, "principio di ragion sufficiente" indica sempre, qui e in Schopenhauer, il diritto a chiedere: «Perché?», ciò che poi a ben vedere risulta essere una delle facoltà forniteci a priori nell'intelletto, oltre che una delle prerogative principali delle scienze comunemente intese.

Nell'approcciare ognuna delle seguenti classi di rappresentazione sarà sempre possibile, dunque, applicare tale principio, chiedendosi effettivamente ogni volta il perché, nello specifico, del divenire, del conoscere, dell'essere, dell'agire: a questo dunque intende riferirsi il filosofo adottando la definizione di "quadruplice radice", ovvero ad un insieme di conoscenze che effettivamente si differenziano l'una dall'altra in quanto all'oggetto conosciuto, ma ciononostante dimostrano, ad una più attenta analisi, di possedere un comune sostrato nella facoltà intellettiva.

Il principio di ragion sufficiente

Principium rationis sufficientis fiendi
Principio di ragione sufficiente del divenire, noto anche come legge di causalità (modificazione reciproca degli stati della materia), che il filosofo inserisce, assieme a tempo e spazio, tra le forme date a priori nell'intelletto umano. Tutti gli oggetti che contribuiscono a creare il complesso della realtà sperimentabile sono, rispetto al cominciare e cessare dei loro stati, legati tra loro per mezzo di tale principio; se subentra un nuovo stato di uno o più di questi oggetti "reali", bisogna che un altro lo abbia preceduto, e che ad esso faccia seguito uno nuovo, il tutto nella più perfetta necessità. Tali seguire e conseguire rappresentano ciò che più comunemente si usa indicare sotto il concetto di rapporto causa-effetto. Se ad esempio un qualsiasi corpo inizia un processo di combustione, è necessario che esso sia preceduto da:

uno stato di affinità con l'ossigeno;
uno stato di contatto con l'ossigeno;
uno stato di aumento della temperatura.

Poiché, non appena questi stati della materia si verificano, deve immediatamente conseguirne la combustione, e però essa si manifesta solo adesso e non può dunque essere stata sempre presente, essa dev'essersi verificata solo ora: questo prodursi di un'alterazione nella condizione originaria della materia viene solitamente indicato con il termine modificazione. Dunque la legge di causalità sta in rapporto esclusivo con le modificazioni e ha sempre e solo a che fare con queste. Ogni effetto è, nel suo verificarsi, una modificazione e dà un'indicazione pressoché infallibile su un'altra modificazione ad essa precedente che, in relazione all'effetto stesso, rappresenta la causa ma che a sua volta, in relazione ad una terza modificazione anteriore ad entrambe, si chiama nuovamente effetto: questa concatenazione logica è ciò che si intende quando si fa riferimento alla catena causale.

Le singole diverse determinazioni, che solo considerate assieme completano e costituiscono la causa, possono essere dette momenti causali o anche condizioni e perciò si può scomporre la causa in tali sue parti costituenti (ciò che poi auspicano di conseguire le scienze tutte comunemente intese). Tali modificazioni degli stati della sostanza (e non mai della sostanza stessa, che come si sa è perenne) divengono successivamente percepibili (dunque rappresentabili) in quanto affezioni che ineriscono agli organi costituenti il nostro apparato sensoriale che, inviando una serie di impulsi lungo la corteccia cerebrale, fornisce al nostro intelletto la capacità di rappresentazione della realtà oggettiva.

Ciò stabilito, Schopenhauer è a questo punto libero di portare il filo logico delle sue riflessioni alle sue estreme conseguenze, attaccando direttamente Cartesio - che tenta di negare la necessità di trovare una causa per la stessa esistenza di Dio semplicemente attribuendogli il vago concetto dell'immensitas - e Spinoza  che, nonostante sia allievo di Cartesio, non viene in chiaro con il pensiero del maestro e preferisce definire Dio come causa sui, la causa di tutte le cause, il che equivale a dire: una causa che si pone al di fuori della stessa catena causale; ovviamente una contradictio in adjecto. Dalla legge di causalità risultano inoltre due importanti corollari: la legge di inerzia e la legge di persistenza della sostanza.

La prima afferma che ogni stato della materia, dunque tanto la quiete quanto il suo moto di qualsiasi tipo, persevera senza crescere né diminuire anche per tutta l'eternità del tempo e per tutta l'infinità dell'universo se non interviene una qualsiasi causa ad alterarlo o farlo cessare. La legge di permanenza della sostanza consegue invece dal fatto che la legge di causalità è applicabile solo e soltanto agli stati della materia, agli stati dei corpi, cioè alla loro quiete o al loro movimento, alla loro forma e qualità d'ogni genere, al nascere e al perire nel tempo dei fenomeni (e solo dei fenomeni), e nient'affatto all'esistenza del "portatore" di questi stati, la sostanza appunto: essa persiste, non può né nascere né perire, il suo quantuum non può cioè essere aumentato o diminuito (conoscenza di cui, afferma Schopenhauer, noi siamo dotati a priori). Dall'infinita catena delle cause e degli effetti rimangono perciò intatte due sole cose:
la materia informe, che non s'è cioè ancora manifestata in un fenomeno o un ente, e che è anzi l'unico medium per mezzo del quale la legge di causalità può esternarsi;
le forze naturali originarie, a cui - afferma il filosofo - è inutile tentare di dare una spiegazione causale, essendo tali forze il sostegno stesso su cui si fonda l'esistenza della medesima catena di causa ed effetto. Ovvero: è illogico, e denota mancanza di riflessione, chiedere il perché del diritto di chiedere perché.

Principium rationis sufficientis cognoscendi
Principio di ragione sufficiente del conoscere, noto come Ragione e definito come capacità di concatenazione o opposizione di concetti astratti (il che vuol dire lontani nel tempo e nello spazio) nella forma sintetica d'un giudizio, da cui discende necessariamente la relativa conferma della giustezza di esso per affinità ad una delle quattro verità:
Verità logica o formale, allorché un giudizio fonda la sua ragione su un altro giudizio ritenuto sempre valido, ovvero dimostra la sua esattezza rispetto a questo con l'adozione di un terzo, procedere nel qual modo viene poi definito sillogizzare. Un giudizio è dotato di verità logica o formale anche nel caso in cui manifesti accordo con una delle quattro note leggi del pensiero:
 Principio di identità [es: "il triangolo è uno spazio delimitato da tre linee"];
 Principio di non contraddizione [es: "nessun corpo è senza estensione"];
 Principio del terzo escluso [es: "ogni giudizio è vero o non-vero"];
 Principio di ragione sufficiente del conoscere [es: "se esprimo un giudizio, devo per necessità motivarlo" o, più sinteticamente, affirmanti incumbit probatio];
Verità empirica, in quanto una rappresentazione della prima categoria qui analizzata, cioè un'intuizione dovuta all'apparato sensibile, può a sua volta essere la ragione di un giudizio. Allora il giudizio assume una verità materiale e questa invero è verità empirica.
Verità trascendentale, essendo le forme della conoscenza intuitiva, forniteci a priori dall'intelletto (spazio, tempo e causalità = principium individuationis), requisiti essenziali di ogni esperienza, esse possono divenire ragione di un giudizio, che ha di nuovo verità materiale, e ciò non solo in seno alla mera esperienza, ma come risultato delle condizioni stesse che questa governano. Esempi di tali giudizi sono proposizioni come: «due linee rette non racchiudono uno spazio», «niente accade senza causa», «3 x 7 = 21», «la materia non nasce e non perisce».
Verità metalogica, che si prefigura allorché la ragione di un giudizio riposa nelle condizioni formali di ogni pensare insite nella Ragione. I giudizi di verità metalogica sono quattro, e sono stati chiamati leggi di ogni pensare. Essi sono i seguenti:
 Un soggetto è uguale alla somma dei suoi predicati, per  cui A = A;
 Non si può negare e al contempo attribuire un predicato a un soggetto, ovvero A = -A = 0;
 Di due predicati contraddittori opposti, uno dev'essere attribuito ad ogni soggetto;
 La verità è il rapporto di un giudizio con qualcosa posto al di fuori di esso, che noi indichiamo come ragione sufficiente.

Che questi giudizi siano espressione della condizione di ogni pensare sano e lucido, afferma Schopenhauer, risulta chiaro dal fatto che pensare in contrasto con essi è così poco possibile come il pretendere di muovere le proprie membra in senso contrario rispetto alle relative articolazioni.

Principium rationis sufficientis essendi
Principio di ragione sufficiente dell'essere, costituito dalla parte formale delle rappresentazioni complete ed empiriche già viste nella prima classe, dunque dalle intuizioni date a priori delle forme del senso interno ed esterno, spazio e tempo. Esse sono di per sé, in quanto intuizioni pure, oggetti della facoltà di rappresentazione, ma differiscono dalla prima classe di oggetti empirici appunto per il grado di purezza e dunque per il fatto di non richiedere l'intervento della materia (e delle sue relative modificazioni di stato) affinché risultino intuibili; ovvero: se nella prima classe di rappresentazioni (intuitive, empiriche) le forme di spazio e tempo vengono intuite in quanto "riempite" dalla materia, in questa terza classe la facoltà rappresentativa rinuncia alla sostanza per divenire pura intuizione di rapporti spazio-temporali, che dunque si riduce qui a manifestazione di quei rapporti indissolubili che caratterizzano le interazioni fra queste due forme del conoscere. Più nel dettaglio, il principio di ragione dell'essere viene  sviluppato da Schopenhauer nel modo seguente:
Ragione dell'essere nello spazio: nello spazio, dalla posizione di ogni parte di esso, diciamo di un dato corpo rispetto ad un altro, è assolutamente determinata la sua posizione anche rispetto ad ogni altro corpo possibile, sicché quest'ultima posizione sta alla prima nello stesso rapporto di una conseguenza con la sua ragione. Poiché ogni corpo (o linea o punto) è, quanto alla sua posizione, insieme determinato da tutti gli altri e determinante dei medesimi, è puro arbitrio considerare un qualsiasi corpo solo in quanto determina gli altri e non in quanto ne è determinato. La posizione di ciascuno di essi rispetto a qualunque altro ammette la domanda circa la sua posizione rispetto a un qualsiasi terzo, in forza della quale seconda posizione la prima è necessariamente quella che è;
Ragione dell'essere nel tempo: nel tempo ogni momento è condizionato dal precedente, in quanto esso ha una sola dimensione e dunque non può esservi una molteplicità di relazioni. Ogni momento è condizionato dal precedente, solo attraverso quello si può giungere al seguente; solo in quanto questo è stato, un altro adesso è. Su questa connessione delle parti del tempo si fonda ogni calcolo: ogni numero presuppone quelli precedenti come ragioni del suo essere, da cui discende ad esempio che al numero dieci posso giungere soltanto attraverso tutti i precedenti. Allo stesso modo la geometria è fondata sulla connessione della posizione delle parti dello spazio: essa sarebbe dunque, propriamente, la conoscenza intuitiva di tale connessione.

Principium rationis sufficientis agendi
Questa quarta classe di oggetti della facoltà di rappresentazione è particolarmente cara al sistema schopenhaueriano, in quanto ad esser preso qui in considerazione è un oggetto soltanto, immediatissimo, oggetto per il soggetto interno che, come tale, si prefigura come soggetto del volere. Schopenhauer parte da questa considerazione: ogni conoscenza presuppone imprescindibilmente un soggetto conoscente e un oggetto conosciuto; la cosa si ripete anche passando nell'ambito dell'autocoscienza, sicché anche qui abbiamo un conoscente e un conosciuto: quest'ultimo è adesso solo ed esclusivamente Volontà.

Discende da ciò che il soggetto conoscente conosca qui sé stesso soltanto come soggetto volente, mai come soggetto di conoscenza, in base al principio che l'Io portatore di rappresentazioni, soggetto del conoscere, essendo condizione delle stesse rappresentazioni, non può divenire esso stesso rappresentazione e dunque oggetto. Tale principio è del resto già enunciato nei testi sacri dell'induismo, le Upaniṣad, con queste parole:

Il soggetto del conoscere non può dunque mai essere conosciuto, mai può esso divenire rappresentazione. Poiché tuttavia noi disponiamo non solo di una conoscenza esterna (grazie all'intuizione sensibile), ma anche di un'autoconoscenza interna, e però anche qui si dà come necessaria la compresenza di conoscente e conosciuto, ad essere conosciuto è adesso il soggetto volente, la Volontà. «Se noi guardiamo alla nostra interiorità», dice Schopenhauer, «ci troviamo sempre come volenti»; il volere ha ovviamente molteplici gradi di intensità, dal desiderio tenue e fugace fino alla più ardente passione. L'identità assoluta fra soggetto che vuole e soggetto che conosce, in virtù della quale il pronome singolare di prima persona "Io" include e designa entrambi, è dunque il nodo cosmico: una completa identità di ciò che conosce con ciò che è conosciuto come volente è data immediatamente.

Come dunque il correlato soggettivo della prima classe di rappresentazioni è l'intelletto, quello della seconda la Ragione, quello della terza la pura sensibilità, troviamo come quello di questa quarta il senso interno, o autocoscienza. Il volere è la più immediata di tutte le conoscenze, quella la cui immediatezza getta luce su tutte le altre: queste ultime sono a noi note solo per una via in fondo indiretta, mediata se vogliamo, qui dai sensi, là dalla ragione; noi vediamo bene cioè che questa causa produce quell'effetto, ma come possa in realtà farlo, questo non veniamo a saperlo: vediamo che gli effetti meccanici, fisici e chimici conseguono ogni volta dalle loro rispettive cause, ma la totalità del processo ci rimane oscura, col che noi giungiamo infine con l'attribuirla alle proprietà dei corpi, alle forze della natura, anche alla forza vitale, le quali sono poi mere qualitates occultae.

Nella sfera della Volontà il discorso cambia radicalmente: noi sappiamo cioè, in base a un'esperienza interna fatta in noi stessi, che quello è un atto di volontà provocato dal motivo; l'azione del motivo viene da noi conosciuta non solamente, come quella di tutte le altre, da fuori e quindi mediatamente, ma insieme da dentro, del tutto immediatamente. Ne scaturisce l'importante proposizione: la motivazione è la causalità vista dal di dentro. La Volontà obbliga dunque il soggetto conoscente a ripetere rappresentazioni che gli sono state presenti già una volta, e a rivolgere in genere l'attenzione a questo o a quello. È la Volontà dell'individuo che mette in moto tutto il meccanismo, in quanto, in conformità ai suoi scopi individuali, spinge l'intelletto a procurare alle sue rappresentazioni presenti altre che sono con le medesime logicamente o analogicamente affratellate, o hanno con esse vicinanza spazio-temporale. Scrive Schopenhauer in merito:

Tutto questo la Volontà svolge, per così dire, in incognito, silenziosamente e inavvertitamente; e ciò nonostante, ogni immagine che improvvisamente si presenta nella nostra fantasia, e anche ogni giudizio che non segue da una sua ragione prima presente, devono essere stati suscitati da un atto di volontà che ha un motivo, sebbene esso e poi l'atto che necessariamente ne consegue, causa la loro repentina affinità, spesso non vengano percepiti.

San Francisco's Emperor Norton gets a yuletide…
San Francisco's Emperor Norton gets a yuletide market of his own
Off the Grid is creating a new winter holiday market at Salesforce Tower Plaza
Who knew you could stroll San Francisco's historic waterfront with Emperor Norton? The three-hour Fantastic San Francisco Time Machine Tour explores the city's history. (Jackie Burrell/Bay Area News Group)
By Jackie Burrell | jburrell@bayareanewsgroup.com | Bay Area News Group
San Francisco has always been known for its embrace of dream seekers and eccentric characters. But the most endearing of them all may be Emperor Norton, the self-proclaimed Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico who "ruled" the city from 1859 until his death in 1880. He printed his own currency, issued imperial proclamations and stirred such deep affection that when he died, it's said that 10,000 mourners filled the streets.
Those 19th-century proclamations ran the full gamut, including calls for equal rights for Native Americans, African-Americans and Chinese immigrants. And one series of edicts — commemorated by a plaque in San Francisco's Salesforce Transit Center — called for the construction of a mighty bridge to connect Oakland and San Francisco, traversing the bay and Yerba Buena Island.
So we'd link to think his imperial highness would approve of the festival unfolding at Salesforce Tower Plaza this holiday season. It's the inaugural Emperor Norton's Holiday Bazaar, an Off the Grid yuletide market inspired by those twinkle-lit European Christmas markets held each year in Vienna, Prague and Strasbourg.
Off the Grid's mission, founder Matt Cohen says, "is to unlock the potential of public and private spaces, and transform them into a meeting place for the community during the holidays. We are aiming to achieve something authentically San Francisco that draws inspiration from European tradition."
San Francisco's Salesforce Transit Center and Tower Plaza are hosting an Emperor Norton Holiday Bazaar, a yuletide market with Off the Grid food trucks and vendor stalls. (Jane Tyska/Bay Area News Group)
From Nov. 29 to Dec. 24, the San Francisco holiday market will take over the outdoor plaza space and first floor of the transit center with illuminated Christmas trees, holiday displays, cozy lounge areas and stalls where guests can browse handmade, artisanal crafts and wares, and enjoy bites from an array of food trucks.
There will be mulled wine, of course — it wouldn't be a holiday market without glögg. And the food trucks hail from OTG, so there's a high likelihood of bao, curry and grilled cheese, as well as traditional sausages.

While you're there, traipse up to the second level of the transit center terminal, near the bus bays, where an E Clampus Vitus plaque from 1939 pays homage to the emperor. Restored by deYoung Museum staff, the plaque bears images of the Bay Bridge, Norton and his dogs, Bummer and Lazarus — and reads, "Pause, traveler, and be grateful to Norton 1st … whose prophetic wisdom conceived and decreed the bridging of San Francisco Bay."
There's no word as yet on royal appearances at the market, but if you see Emperor Norton striding down San Francisco's waterfront or holding court in Union Square, clad in an ostrich-plumed hat and full Civil War-era regalia, that's no ghost. That's actor and Norton expert Joseph Amster, who leads Emperor Norton's Fantastic San Francisco Time Machine walking tours of the city. (It's a great outing for out-of-town visitors, but even we long-time Bay Area-ites learned new things on the highly entertaining three-hour stroll.)
The historic downtown tour, which starts at Union Square, includes the imperial legend, of course, and the backstory on Bummer and Lazarus, as well as the 1906 earthquake and fire, Lotta's Fountain, Portsmouth Square and the Barbary Coast.

Emperor Norton Holiday Bazaar: Nov. 29-Dec. 24 at San Francisco's Salesforce Transit Center and Salesforce Plaza at 415 Mission St. Stroll the market and enjoy events from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday-Thursday, until 9 p.m. Friday-Saturday and until 6 p.m. on Sundays.

Course was designed to engage learners using text, with some video to support visual learners.
It made me think of the goal of supervision and brought it out of the abstract realm.
The course provided a simple yet complete outline for the supervision process.
Below is a map of just some of the places users have accessed the CEUey supervisor training.
Q: Are there videos to watch?
A: The training is text-based but there are a few short videos to supplement the text.
Q: Why should I take this training?
A: CEUey provides trainings that have utility and are convenient. The utility is the organization your supervision practice will have when you are finished. All your materials for supervision will be current and ready to use. Convenience means doing the work at your own pace whenever you have time and with no time limit.
Q: What documents will I be creating?
A: Templates and files are provided for creating these supervision tools.
Q: What happened to the desk reference?
A: The desk reference and documents submission was eliminated and replaced with online templates to allow users to create the documents directly on the site (this was a feature many participants requested). This also reduced our costs and we were able to lower the price.

Q: JavaScript - Generate random pixels on HTML5 canvas I want to create a random generated image (random colors), like this one. But, I want to do it in javascript, but for some reason I am getting black screen.
Here is my code:
var g=document . createElement( 'canvas').getContext('2d');
g.canvas.width=g.canvas.height = 800;
g.imgd = g.getImageData(0, 0, 800, 800);
g.data = g.imgd.data;

g.data.forEach((_, index) => (index & 3) < 3 && (g.data[index] = Math.random()));
g.putImageData(g.imgd, 0, 0);

document.body.appendChild(g.canvas);;;

And i am getting black screen, and on some websites it is white screen. So what is what not working in my script? My english is not very good, but can someone explain what is wrong, my code dont'esnt working.
I also tried different dimensions of canvas and I dont see any errors so what is wrong?

A: You are using Math.random() which generates floats from 0 to 1 without including 1. Since you're applying zeroes to the color components (the data from getImageData().data), you get the color black (rgb(0, 0, 0)).
Here's a more readable solution:

var canvas = document.createElement('canvas');
canvas.width = canvas.height = 800;
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
var imgData = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

function randomInt(min, max) {
  return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min;
}

for (var i = 0; i < imgData.data.length; i += 4) {
  imgData.data[i] = randomInt(0, 255); // red
  imgData.data[i+1] = randomInt(0, 255); // green
  imgData.data[i+2] = randomInt(0, 255); // blue
  imgData.data[i+3] = 255; // alpha
}

ctx.putImageData(imgData, 0, 0);
document.body.appendChild(canvas);

A: Math.random() returns a floating point number, not within the full range of 0-255. You can alternatively use .fillStyle() and set the color to a random hex color.

function pixels(width = 100, height = 100, size = 1, canvas) {

  var canvas = canvas || document.createElement("canvas");

  var ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");

  var total = [];

  canvas.width = width;

  canvas.height = height;

  function random() {
    return "XXXXXX".replace(/X/g, function() {
      var seed = "a0b1c2d3e4f56789";
      return seed.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * seed.length))
    })
  };

  for (var x = 0; x <= width; x += size) {
    total.push(x)
  };

  total.forEach(function(value, index) {
    for (var i = 0; i <= height; i++) {
      ctx.fillStyle = "#" + random();
      ctx.fillRect(value, total[i], size, size);
    }
  });

  document.body.appendChild(canvas);

  return ctx;

};

var c = pixels(window.innerWidth - 20, window.innerHeight - 20);


When you accept your beginning alpha accommodation - you are accessible to accomplish a beginning alpha in the eyes of your new creditor. Being alert to abide your payments anniversary ages is a abundant way to prove your creditworthiness to your new lender. This blazon of absolute acquittal history goes a continued way appear accepting you a bigger absorption amount on approaching loans, and can save you a array by alienated backward fees.
If all the aloft is not possible, and you charge the banknote fast, again accede a acceptable online payday lender because you don't accept to aftermath any abstracts alleged no-fax or faxless payday loans so you can get a accommodation fast and it's quick and easy.
We've all been in that position - staring at a new allotment of apparatus or maybe a domiciliary apparatus that we appeal badly or sometimes even. The alone adversity is that the account is aloof above the ability of your accepted budget. If you alone had a few hundred dollars more... or maybe the bulk you charge is a little college than that. As you struggled with your admiration for this purchase, you may accept started cerebration about accepting a fast loan. Perhaps the abstraction alike beyond your apperception to attending into payday loans.
These are great ways to borrow for those that cannot or do not want to borrow with a traditional lender, such as a bank or credit union. There are higher interest rates due to the convenience of this type of loan and a shorter repayment period. The term of the loan is normally seven to twenty-one days after receiving the funds.

Spinal Cord Injury Zone / News	/ 2012 / December / 5th
Paralyzed but Determined to Walk, and to Help Others Too
Published: December 5, 2012 | Source: nbclosangeles.com
Walking With Anthony helps those with spinal cord injuries
Nearly three years ago, Anthony Purcell thought he was dying.
He dove into the Florida surf and didn't come back up. He couldn't move at all. His neck was broken, his spinal cord injured.
He was paralyzed, he learned in the hospital after a cousin pulled him from the water. But "paralyzed" is a word his family refuses to say, and a prognosis the Purcells refuse to accept.
"From the minute I walked in that hospital, I knew I was going to get him back on his feet And nobody was going to tell me any different," said Micki Purcell, Anthony's mother.
Anthony got just 20 days of rehabilitation covered by insurance, then he was cut off. His family can afford to continue further intensive therapy at Project Walk in Carlsbad with their own funds.
But they know that few others have that chance. And that disparity – and insurance companies' policy toward rehabilitation of spinal injuries – prompted the creation of nonprofit Walking With Anthony.
"Now my mind set is on helping other people," Anthony said.
View more videos at: http://nbclosangeles.com.
On a recent day, Anthony was taking some of his first steps at Project Walk, which he travels to from home in Newport Beach. Strapped into a walker, Anthony's slow progress across the room did not look easy.
"I don't even care how it is. It might not be controlled but still, just putting my left foot forward — looking down below and seeing that happen is relief and shows hope," Anthony said.
He and Micki want others to have that opportunity, so Walking With Anthony gives grants to those with spinal cord injury who are in need.
"The medical system has turned their back on spinal cord injury and it's criminal," said Micki. "You can't put a price on helping one person getting stronger and healthier."
Erica Predum, a mother from Indiana who was paralyzed from the chest down after a car accident, was one of the first people helped by the Purcells' organization.
"Walking with Anthony helped me change my outlook on my recovery," Predum said. "They helped me realize I was capable of doing things I was once told I could never do."
She spent five years using an electric wheelchair, but after five weeks of additional therapy, she progressed to using a manual chair.
"We're going to help them more independent. We're going to help them get more strength and we're going to help them live a better life," Anthony said. "Anything is possible and that's why we're here to help."

The perfect companion to UNDERSTANDING COMICS, this softcover volume again uses the comic book medium to further explore the present state of the industry and its future challenges and opportunities. Broken down into two parts, the first segment of the book presents the major issues presently facing the comic book industry such as creators' rights, mainstream public perceptions, and sexual and ethnic representations in the medium. The second part of the book then looks ahead to see how different technologies such as digital production and the internet will help the art form evolve and grow. As a whole, this book deftly illustrates not only where the comic book industry is but where it is going.
Based on the popular video game, this story was originally published in Hong Kong and is translated to English and published in America for the first time. Barely surviving her experience in the Umbrella Corporation's headquarters, Claire Redfield continues her search for her missing brother, Chris. But as her investigation deepens, she learns that the evil of the Umbrella Corporation has spread throughout the globe. Now as she battles flesh-eating zombies and monstrous beasts, Claire finally begins to see the true depth of the biotech conspiracy.
The hot-selling videogame that spawned a hit movie continues as a spine-tingling comic book saga, as WildStorm Productions adapts the Hong Kong version of the Resident Evil comics into English! Claire and Steve continue to seek a way off Umbrella's creature-infested island. These flesh-eating zombies, monstrous beasts and strange mutations are spreading around the globe. But the most important question is: Will Claire ever uncover the details behind the bio-tech conspiracy?

In this tale of a legendary warrior, the Ronin, a dishonored, masterless 13th century samurai, is mystically given a second chance to avenge his master's death. Finding himself suddenly reborn in a futuristic and corrupt 21st century New York City, the samurai discovers he has one last chance to regain his honor. But to do so, he must defeat the reincarnation of his master's killer, the ancient demon Agat. In a time and place both foreign and unfathomable to him, the Ronin stands against his greatest enemy with his life and more importantly, his soul at stake.
In this witty and illuminating softcover book, Scott McCloud, a twelve-time Harvey and Eisner Award nominee, uses a comic book to explain and analyze the medium of comic books themselves. This ultimate book about comics dissects the art form and shows how words, lines, colors, symbols, panels and pictures all come together to create a unique and one-of-a-kind storytelling experience. Looking back at the 3000 year history of the art form, McCloud shows how this unique genre is just as important and valid as film and prose in his own funny and profound manner.
It all begins with the paranoid delusions of a half-insane hero called Rorschach. But is Rorschach really insane or has he in fact uncovered a plot to murder super-heroes and, even worse, millions of innocent civilians? On the run from the law, Rorschach reunites with his former teammates in a desperate attempt to save the world and their lives, but what they uncover will shock them to their very core and change the face of the planet! Following two generations of masked superheroes from the close of World War II to the icy shadow of the Cold War comes this groundbreaking comic story — the story of The Watchmen.

Q: The better (and the less expensive) way to find a GameObject? I have a great perplexity, and I hope someone can give me some advice :)
In term of performance, what is the less 'expensive' way in order to find a gameobject?
1)
public GameObject myGO;

2)
GameObject myGO = this.transform.parent.GetChild(0).GetChild(0).gameObject;

3)
GameObject myGO = GameObject.Find("myObject")

A: 1 is the fastest as you already have the reference in your variable. No computation necessary.
In 2, you have a couple of reference redirections, which is fast. You also have function calls to get the zeroth item, which also should be fast enough. I'd say this is the second best.
In 3, Unity is looking for the name among the gameobjects in the scene. I don't know the implementation details--unless they are doing some kind of hashing, there will be a number of string comparisons. Either way, this feels like the slowest one.
However, you don't need to worry about efficiency of such code unless you are doing 100s of this in a frame. Worry more about object instantiations if you want to make your game more efficient.

A: The Find method is not recommended not just because of performance cost - basing code on stuff having to be named in a specific way on the scene is a bad habit. In case name of the object changes for any reason, you will not be able to find your object anwyays.

A: My strategy to avoid the store of a reference is to use parent and child method (your 2 way)! Example:
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Transform-parent.html
https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Transform.GetChild.html
It's fast compared to Find and you don't need to store the reference.
Sure the 1 is fast but it's much less convenient, that's why I do not always use it.
PS. If you need to get the main camera reference there is a even better way

Start your musical list with the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, fast-forward to Waylon Jennings, then Bruce Springsteen and Prince and a Texas genre of music known as Red Dirt. Draw lines connecting them all and at their intersection you find an acoustic guitarist, singer, and songwriter by the name of Jeff Parnell, who plays both locally and across the state from his home base in Jasper.
Along the way, Parnell remembers the exact day and time he got permanently bitten by the music bug. "My uncle was in the Navy in Norfolk, Va., and they were having the grand opening of a big shopping center. There was a country singer playing there who had some regional hits, and my uncle knew him, so he talked the guy into letting me stand onstage and sing with him because I knew all his songs.
Parnell, along with bandmates Ernie McClinton, Barry Evans, and Steve Hagood, take pride in the fact that they play some not-really-typical venues. "And we do all kinds of parties, get-togethers at the lake. We even played a hog-killin' one time," he says. Seriously. "If somebody's got something strange going on, they'll call me to come play it," he says. "I've got a friend up in Pineywoods that has a 'Beans and Greens' gathering every fall. They cook big pots of beans and turnip greens and build a campfire and have a big time." Likewise, their approach even to well-known tunes can take audiences by surprise. "We do different versions of popular songs," Parnell says. "Most groups who play Prince do 'Purple Rain.' We do 'Raspberry Beret" in a rock-and-rock version that we heard Warren Zevon do once. Or we do an acoustic version of The Who's 'Won't Get Fooled Again.' You can adapt almost anything for two acoustic guitars when you break it down to its basics.
When Parnell's not on the road or managing the KFC store on Old Highway 78, you can most often find him volunteering for high school events at Walker, his alma mater — from parking cars to selling T-shirts or running the clock at ball games. "I joked with the coaches about me having a promotion, getting to sit in the press box," he says. He also paints the field and the logos on the streets, and is a band booster. "I do a little bit of everything I can, to help out," he says.
It's the music that's nearest to his heart. Some of his favorite memories are of concerts he's attended. "I was lucky," he says. My dad was a big country music fan, and we'd go see Waylon Jennings play a lot. We sat up close, and I got to playing more country after that.
"I'll never forget seeing Bruce Springsteen on his 'Born in the USA' tour. He put on a four-hour show that kept you on the edge of your seat. I had never heard him before, but I was hooked. Nowadays I can't remember what I did ten minutes ago, but I can tell you that concert almost word for word.

After finalizing and testing all of the motor drivers and thrusters, we've begun work on assembling the navigation box and its components. The navigation box includes the DVL, the IMU (mounted directly onto the auto pilot board), and the depth sensor. The first hurtle to tackle was realizing that we didn't have all of the Fischer connectors which connect the DVL transducer head to its electronics box. We needed four right angle connectors (there are two cables), but we only had two.

As an educator and parent of three, Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation District 15 – Trillium Lakelands president Colin Matthew told the Echo the impact of cuts to education is an issue near and dear to his heart.
Local leaders from OSSTF and the Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario are planning a rally outside of Haliburton-Kawartha Lakes-Brock MPP Laurie Scott's office on Feb. 7 to express concerns about potential cuts by the provincial government to education funding.
The release said that, "recent announcements by the Ford government including sweeping cuts to OSAP and post-secondary funding are incredibly disconcerting to those monitoring education policy" including Matthew. It also said potential class size reviews that could lead to increased classroom sizes that result in "less opportunity for individual attention, instruction or feedback," in elementary and high schools are concerning.
Matthew told the Echo that so far, details on what proposed cuts might look like have not been released.
The Feb. 7 rally coincides with rallies at MPP offices across Ontario.
Matthew said it was not likely that Haliburton members would be in attendance at Tuesday's rally.
"The location of [the MPP] offices and the timing of the rallies will make it impossible for members from Haliburton to be at the rallies," he said.
Community members are welcome to join the rally planned to take place from 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. at 14 Lindsay Street North.

IPO Gives Chinese Couple a 'Hansoh' Sum
June 23rd, 2019 | Author: admin
Thanks to a big IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, a Chinese couple have become China's richest husband-and-wife team.
The initial public offering of Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group, which closed up 37.3% on its debut on Friday, made Chairwoman Zhong Huijuan China's third-richest woman. Zhong's husband, Sun Piaoyang, is already worth $9.8 billion, according to Forbes.
Together, Zhong and Sun have a $19.5 billion bank balance, which would make them wealthier than the Sackler family that owns OxyContin-maker Purdue Pharma, at $14 billion. They're also worth considerably more than Robin Li and Ma Dongmin, the husband-wife team who run Baidu (BIDU) and previously China's top power couple, worth US$8.8 billion.
Zhong owns 68% of Hansoh, which now has a market capitalization of $14.2 billion in U.S. dollars. That values her stake at $9.7 billion. Among China's wealthiest women, only the property developers Yang Huiyan of Country Garden Holdings (CTRYY) and Longfor Properties (LGFRY) chairwoman Wu Yajun are worth more. Not bad for Zhong, who quit her job as a chemistry teacher to enter the drug business.
Zhong is riding the rapid growth in China's pharmaceutical industry, as the country concurrently gets richer and older. Revenue for Hansoh rose 24.8% in 2018, to $1.1 billion. Profits climbed 19.2%, to $275 million.
The company generated roughly $1 billion from the IPO. Singapore's sovereign wealth fund GIC is one of the cornerstone investors. Hansoh plans to use 45% of the IPO money to invest in research and development, with a quarter of that to build improved as well as new product lines. An additional 20% goes to sales promotions, and 10% will be kept as working capital.
Sun has led another drug company, Jiangsu Hengrui Medicine, since 1990. He has turned it from a state-owned company founded in 1970 into a highly profitable maker of medicine to combat cancer, with a small-molecule drug treatment for advanced gastric cancer, as well as cardiovascular disease, inflammation and central-nervous system conditions.
In May 2018, Forbes named Jiangsu Hengrui No. 64 out of the 100 most-innovative companies in the world. But that did not help Jiangsu Hengrui's market value. It was a torrid year for the stock, which lost 35.1% between May and the end of the year. The shares have advanced 39.4% so far in 2019, considerably bigger than Hansoh as a US$39.2 billion company.
Hansoh Pharmaceutical makes anti-infection and anti-tumor drugs, too, generating around half of sales from cancer treatments. It is far more accessible to overseas' investors, thanks to its Hong Kong listing, than Jiangsu Hengrui, which went public in 2000 with a listing in Shanghai.
Investors have clearly not been deterred by an investigation that the Chinese authorities have launched into potential kickbacks paid by drugmakers to doctors and hospital administrators, to get their drugs used.
Hansoh Pharmaceutical is on the list of 77 pharmaceutical companies released earlier this month that China's National Healthcare Security Administration and the Ministry of Finance are investigating. The Chinese arms of Sanofi (SNY) , Eli Lilly (LLY) and Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY) are also on the list.
There's suspicion that the embarrassment over the U.S. college admissions scandal may have prompted the investigation. The biggest bribe allegedly paid to college consult Rick Springer in the "Varsity Blues" case came from Zhao Tao, the chairman of Shandong Buchang Pharmaceutical, which is also on the list. Zhao says he was acting in a private capacity when he helped his daughter, "Molly" Zhao Yusi, get into Stanford University.
Springer allegedly paid a half million dollars to the Stanford University sailing team, and tried to get Molly Yao recruited to the team. He allegedly pocketed the rest of the $6.5 million paid by Zhao. The former Stanford sailing coach John Vandemoer reportedly pleaded guilty to racketeering, this week receiving a sentence of a day in prison, a $10,000 fine, and two years of supervised release. Stanford fired him after his plea.
It is the first conviction in the case, which has been an embarrassment in China, where aggressive parents will go to great lengths to push their children's education. The second-largest alleged payment, of $1.2 million to get a student into Yale, also came from a Chinese family.
But there are also problems within the Chinese pharmaceutical industry itself. Doctors say it is common practice to supplement your income by accepting "grey money" from drug companies to push their products.
A maker of traditional Chinese medicine, Kangmei Pharmaceutical, said in April that it had overstated its cash holdings by as much as $4.3 billion. That led to a regulatory probe, with China's stock watchdog finding the company used related parties to manipulate its shares.
Hansoh may come under a more-generic form of pressure as a result of the investigations. The Chinese government is on a long-term push to drive down the price of drugs. The government says it will instigate a second round of Group Purchase Organization price cuts for the national health service by September.
That would put pressure on margins at drugmakers. Those with proprietary treatments would likely fare better than those making generics. But Jiangsu Hengrui reportedly saw the price of its hypertension drug Irbesartan slashed 60% in a round of cuts in December. (Source: realmoney.thestreet.com)

Don't let the simplicity of this classic Persian Cucumber and Tomato Salad, Shirazi Salad, fool you. It is full of flavor and makes a colorful and healthy side dish to any meal.
Valentine's Day. It's one of those holidays that used to bring a lot of "upset" to my house. I have openly expressed how my husband feels about this "Hallmark Holiday", so there is no use rehashing it. In all honesty, I really can't blame him. I don't get this holiday myself.
I used to like it, but after years of not really celebrating it, hating it, dreading it… years of buying stupid valentine cards for my kids to share with their friends, knowing they would all end up in the trash shortly after. What a waste.
Why do we need one day in the year to tell our loved ones that, well, we love them? Shouldn't we be doing this everyday or most everyday?
I swore up and down to myself that I wouldn't do a Valentine's post. But, all over the web, all I see are heart shaped cookies, candies, sandwiches, pancakes… you name it.
My family knows I love them and adore them. I do my best to take care of them and feed them nutritious food. I even love to spoil them with their favorite meals and yes, sweets.
But this Valentine's Day, I'm going back to the basics. My kids get so excited when I make them this Salad Shirazi. It's a simpler Persian salad made with cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions and fresh parsley. And if I can find sweet tomatoes in February, then I score big time.
We love this salad with kabob or any main dish. We eat it all year round. It even makes a wonderful appetizer. And when you have sweet summer tomatoes, let the rainbow shine and make a real colorful salad.
You can even mix in 1 to 1 1/2 cups of cooked quinoa to make it heartier. Even mix in some chicken breast or shrimp for a light and delicious meal.
So, honey, you are off the hook again this year. No over-priced roses for me on Tuesday. No mushy card necessary with your sarcastic comment inside. Don't you dare buy expensive chocolate covered strawberries, I can dip them myself. You show me you love 364 days of the year, so you can take a day off on Valentine's Day.
Cook a home-cooked dinner for your family for most nights of the week.
Keep it real, REAL food that is. If you can't go 100% unprocessed, go 80%. Just take that first step.
Read labels. If the box says "Whole-Grain" it doesn't mean it's healthy. Read the fiber content. Read the sugar content. Don't stop reading.
Keep a fresh fruit bowl on the counter for easy snacks.
Pack your lunch, whether you are in school or going to work.
Shop local. Support local farmers and shop farmer's markets. It guarantees the freshness of your produce.
Introduce new foods and cultures frequently to the dining table.
Keep it green. Serve something green in every meal you serve or eat.
Pass on the sweets. Eat a piece of fruit instead. Teach your kids that you don't need a fatty dessert everyday.
Tell your family you love them everyday. Because if you know you are loved, you will take better care of yourself and you won't eat the wrong foods for the wrong reasons.
Chop vegetables and put in a serving bowl.
Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
Pour salad dressing and mix it evenly into the salad and serve.
Gibson Overseas, Inc. Gibson Elite 99801.01R Soho Lounge Serving Bowl, Black Matte 9.7"
Great post! Valentines day is very much overrated. Home cooked meals are the ultimate I love you!
I'm doing very well, based on your list. I just have to remember to keep fruit available for easy snacks. Excellent post!
Great post! Love your 10 things but I have already cheated on the "don't eat sweets, eat fruit instead". Can't resist the truffles my Valentine gave me yesterday!
