There's a staggering amount of information out there, and it's hard to sift through it. That said, only a small portion of the news, data, and analysis services out there is relevant to fundamental cryptoasset investors. The vast majority consists of technical analysis and mcap rankings. Technical analysis, in our opinion, may be useful for optimal execution, but is a poor substitute for sincere asset appraisal. We're therefore compiling a list of some of the best, and possibly overlooked, resources for investors.
This is part I of the series. Future posts will cover coin ranking sites (CoinMarketCap and its peers), a selection of the best blogs, data visualizations, ICO rating sites, academic and industry research, and think tanks.
We're starting with indices (I prefer the latin pluralization because I think it sounds nicer, but you can use 'indexes' if you like) because they are generally ignored by investors. As the market matures, and assets begin to decisively de-correlate themselves from bitcoin and ethereum, neither will be a reliable proxy for the overall health of the market. Until now, Bitcoin was the de facto index, which has proved problematic as its influence has waned. It's only a matter of time until an investable index is brought to market – but first, reliable indices need to exist.
Like equity markets have the S&P500 and the Dow Jones, cryptoasset markets have their own benchmarks. These allow you to saying things like "bitcoin is down 5% on the day despite the positive market index" or something like "in the last year, dogecoin is showing a beta of 1.8 against the market, so it's highly sensitive to market movements" or even "Dash has a negative market beta and is therefore a potential hedge." (These examples are made up.) The point is, indices are tremendously useful, and underused right now.
Why not add up the total value of all cryptoassets, as many data sources currently do? At time of writing, CoinMarketCap lists this figure at just over $94 billion. This, however is a very poor way of assessing the performance of the market. The essential mcap problem rears its head again here. There are many digital currencies with minuscule circulation relative to their perceived market value. For instance, at the time of writing, Komodo has a mcap of $143m and a 24h circulation of $669k, meaning a mere 0.46% of the currency has turned over on exchanges. For Soarcoin, the 69th ranked asset on CoinMarketCap, that 24h exchange turnover is 0.1%. Bitcoin's is closer to 2%. Peerplays, ranked 74th, whose $31m mcap is included in the simple index of all cryptoassets, saw just 0.02% of its value turn over on exchanges in the last 24 hours.
These numbers demonstrate that many cryptoassets have a market value that is entirely divorced from the value of coins in circulation. Illiquidity means investors practically cannot 'buy the index', so it's best for indices to exclude highly illiquid assets. Not to mention that the $94b figure includes the $9 billion that Ripple accounts for, which does not satisfy several of the features of a cryptocurrency.
A weighted, restricted index is therefore required. Recently, new indices have answered the call, enabling investors to get a better feel for how the markets are faring. None of these are mainstream yet but I assume one will eventually come to predominate. First among them is the oldest, CRIX.
The CRyptocurrency IndeX, computed by a team of statisticians at Humboldt University in Berlin, is, to the best of our knowledge, the first serious attempt at building a cryptocurrency index. That is its principal strength: it provides an estimation of the development of the market since August 2014. Its initial value of 1000 has grown to roughly 8500 today, indicating that investors buying the cap-weighted index would have earned a 113% compound annual growth rate.
The CRIX launched in 2014 with 30 members, and currently lists 65 (contrary to the text on the website), although it had as few as 5 members in April of this year. This is probably its greatest drawback. Their willingness to create a dynamic, algorithmically rebalanced index, trades off against predictability in terms of the number of constituents. The index doesn't offer historical rebalancing data and doesn't indicate current weights, forcing investors to work it out for themselves. Its unassuming nature, technical obscurity, and general lack of self-promotion probably explain why it hasn't caught on. Its greatest strengths are its statistical sophistication and the fact that it dates back to 2014, far out-dating the other two indices profiled here.
Smith + Crown will be featuring repeatedly in this series, since they are one of the best resources for investors interested in series research. Their index is more restrictive, requiring that constituents be three months old, have adequate liquidity, have a sufficiently large market cap, and are properly distributed (sorry ripple!). All of these restrictions make a lot of sense, even if the numbers are somewhat arbitrary. Only eleven currencies make the cut. All of the currencies profiled on our data download page are there, aside from Zcash and Decred. Smith + Crown prides practicality, plausibility and an easy-to-follow set of constituents above all else. This makes for a very simple index for investors to actually mimic. It does however only capture 76% of the total cryptoasset market cap, but again, this may be an advantage, since it omits returns from assets which would-be indexers may not actually be able to capture. By definition, micro-caps can't deliver exceptional returns to a mainstream audience.
The Smith + Crown index is very professionally done, and offers a wealth of information on constituents and performance. Our main criticism would be the arbitrary nature of the selection criteria, although it's fairly doubtful that many other currencies beyond the 11 profiled are necessary to get a good feel for the market at large. I have trouble imagining how the SCI could backtest itself to, say, 2014, for historical usefulness, since it uses mcap and liquidity thresholds for its selection criteria. Few cryptocurrencies would have satisfied their conditions prior to 2017.
Additionally, Smith + Crown don't publish detailed information on their divisor, and they didn't respond to our query. The index abruptly starts at 6,107 points on June 8th. More detail here would be welcome.
Nonetheless, the SCI is simple and easy to understand, contains a plausible basket of cryptoassets, and crucially is backed by the influential Smith + Crown, who are growing in stature. I wouldn't be surprised if their index became the first one quoted in the financial media once the press begins to understand the cryptoasset market with a bit more sophistication.
A new addition to the set, the Bletchley indexes exploded on to the scene recently. Bletchley, named after the British codebreaking headquarters during WWII where the Enigma was cracked, aims to reduce the vast complexity of cryptoasset markets to a simple set of indicators. They present four benchmarks. Chief among them is their top 10 mcap-weighted index, as well as an index tracking the performance of the next 20 assets (i.e. starting with the 11th through 30th-largest cryptoassets that satisfy their criteria). This latter index is called the Bletchley 20, although it could be interpreted as a medium or small cap index. Breaking with index tradition, Bletchley also offer equal-weight alternatives to the top 10 and 20.
In equities, the most persistent anomalies relate to value and size, meaning that assets with a depressed market value (relative to their book value) tend to outperform their more glamorous counterparts, and smaller assets tend to do better. There exists no easy way to determine value in cryptoasset land (although you could start by looking at the market to transaction value), so it's not easily testable for now. Equal weight indexing is a way to get exposure to the value factor, since most indexes are cap-weighted. Buying a cap weighted S&P500 index, like Vanguard's ETF VOO, means you buy assets in proportion to their market cap. So you'd buy 3.9% Apple, 2.8% Alphabet, 2.6% Microsoft, and so on. Rebalancing along a cap-weighting has the effect of disproportionately exposing investors to assets which have done well recently, and reducing their exposure to 'value' stocks. If you want a moderate value tilt in your portfolio, equal-weight indexing is one way to do it.
The Bletchley indexes also give insight into the size factor in cryptoassets. What the Bletchley20 tells us so far is that small cryptoassets are generally very sensitive to market movements. So when bitcoin/ethereum are up, they're up big, and when they're down, they get crushed. The Bletchley20 exploded by a factor of 9 from mid-March to mid-June, compared by a multiple of just 4.5 for the Bletchley10. Whether they outperform in the long term is another matter entirely. Due to network effects and a limited pool of developer talent, cryptoasset value may eventually concentrate in a few large networks, quashing smaller assets.
Interestingly, CRIX and Bletchley differ fairly significantly in their magnitudes. The CRIX is more sensitive than the Bletchley10. For instance, from April 1 to the June 11 market peak, CRIX increased by 415%, as opposed to Bletchley10 which increased by 376% in that same period. Both indices are cap-weighted (so bitcoin makes up the largest portion of the index, followed by ethereum, and so on), but CRIX has 30 constituents to Bletchley's 10. This might explain their deviation, but so too might the CRIX' reliance on a more exotic index construction than Bletchley.
The Bletchley indexes are innovative and rigorous – quite simply, a fantastic addition to the index market. Bletchley rebalances monthly according to a criterion assessing volume as a percentage of market cap. Their methodology and monthly weighting data is comprehensive and detailed. It's easy for investors to follow along and track the index.
September 15 update: Bletchley has also added an index of tokens built on the Ethereum platform (but excluding ethereum and ethereum classic). We welcome this development as it's fantastically useful to see the market segmented like this.
Finally, here's a snapshot of the last week at each index (in order: Bletchley10, SCI, CRIX). You can see that CRIX offers significantly less granular data. The SCI and the Bletchley10 look virtually identical, since they have many of the same constituents.
Ultimately, I imagine that the market will continue to mature and segment, and cryptocurrencies will only represent a small corner of the market. I can imagine a fragmentation of the market into at least cryptocurrencies and appcoins (tokens). They will be sufficiently dissimilar that they will be treated and tracked differently, much like how we treat Japanese and American stocks differently. It will be considered somewhat naive and old-fashioned to lump everything running on a cryptographic ledger together. However, we are not yet at that point, and these indices are still emerging. Indexing innovation should be welcomed by traders, investors, and academics alike.
Update, July 10: Our readers gave us a lot of valuable feedback on the article, including links to index products. I had looked at Bittwenty and Iconomi in researching the article, but passed them over as they appeared defunct, and poorly-designed, respectively. However they do purport to offer investors exposure to the market index, so I'll discuss them briefly.
Bittwenty is a token that trades on BitShares. It tracks the performance of a basket of the top 20 cryptoassets. It's a cap-weighted index with a threshold cap, so no asset can exceed 10% of the allocation. This gives it a small-size tilt. They claim that Bit20 can faithfully track the index through an ETF-like structure with share creation and redemption, but I haven't tested this. Invest at your own risk.
Iconomi is a semi-new product which looks to be some sort of eToro for cryptoassets. Ultimately they want to enable putative traders/asset managers to try out various strategies and attract investors. They call these strategies digital asset arrays (DAAs). The first DAA is ICNX, which is a passive index fund. Except it boasts a hefty 3% management fee and a 0.5% exit fee. And it uses a non-public weighting mechanism (it caps bitcoin at 15%). Both of those things scream 'active fund masquerading as a passive fund' to me. INCX is available, as I understand, to Iconomi ICO investors, who are just now gaining access after a long wait. Quite the price for passive indexing.
The TaiFu 30 is another index that takes the largest 30 cryptoassets on a cap weighting. They rebalance daily. Another one to watch.
Thank you for the informative post! Have there been any updates to your findings on indices since publishing this post?
Great. Could you compare the Information Ratio and Sortino Ratio of these indices against bitcoin price?
The C20 token itself represents a share in the closed-end fund of these assets and will trade on exchanges, however the smart contract allows liquidation for the underlying asset value in ETH at any time, thereby creating a price floor for the C20 token.
It seems like the best bet for investable crypto indexes right now.

LocalGlobe becomes Phoenix Court Group, hits $500M first close for new funds, adds an Impact twist – Venture Capital
Jun 21, 2022 | Venture Capital
Saul Klein is a busy man. As co-founder, with his father Robin, of LocalGlobe, one of the longest-running VCs in Europe, he has overseen a wide range of initiatives – among other things the pair are passionate investors and philanthropists in LocalGlobe's HQ'd area of Somers Town, London – as well as the more conventional business of venture investing in startups.
But, although the LocalGlobe brand name and fund remains, now the new umbrella brand for all the Kleins' activities will henceforth be "Phoenix Court Group" (for the purposes of this article, I will refer to it as PCG). The group is also unveiling how its four new funds will operate, plus how it will deploy 10 percent of its profits to a charitable foundation.
The firm has now outlined how it will have $500m at "the first close" to deploy across its funds: LocalGlobe (early stage), Latitude (early 'growth' stage) and two completely new investment vehicles, Solar and Basecamp.
A healthy 10 per cent of Phoenix Court Group's profit will go into its Phoenix Court Works foundation to help local groups in Somers Town.
Klein is also pushing the idea that PCG's King's Cross, London, location puts it at the heart of a European region he is dubbing "the next Palo Alto" – of which more later.
So, first to the fund structures. TechCrunch has peered through the marketing buff to come up with these definitions of PCG's funds:
• LocalGlobe (Seed to Series A)
• Latitude (Series B, and later)
• Solar (Series C and beyond, as well as investing in listed tech stocks / public markets)
• Basecamp (LP fund to invest in other smaller VCs, angels and solo GPs)
With this range of fund vehicles, this will make PCG a "lifestage" tech investor, able to invest from the earliest stages of startup, all the way to the latest stage and to the public markets. It's also now an LP in other funds (via Basecamp), especially emerging markets like Africa, and Latin America.
But zoom out for a moment, and Basecamp is effectively the retro-fitted moniker PCG is giving to the several initiatives the Kleins backed, such as Seedcamp in 2007, company builder Zinc.vc in 2017, and music industry platform Platoon, among others. Basecamp also partners with the diversity-oriented Newton Venture Program, which LocalGlobe co-founded with the London Business School. Pheonic Court Works has underwritten 60 scholarships to this programme.
PCG also now argues that the region within a four-hour train journey of it's base in Kings Cross and St Pancras (which comprises Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Northern UK cities (Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Newcastle), Bristol, Oxford and Cambridge) is home to over 40 million citizens, 7 of the worlds' top 30 universities, and contains a large number of Europe's Unicorns. Plausibly, it calls this region of Europe, a 'New Palo Alto' – although the marketing schpeel is overly laboured. Furthermore, PCG hardly has a monopoly on this region – no matter what you call it – given any other London VC a tube ride from Kings Cross has access to exactly the same ecosystem.
However, Saul Klein, co-founder of Phoenix Court Group, said in a statement: "Despite being the third best producer of high growth private companies globally, this geography is still underserved by investors, especially at the breakout and scale-up stages. Not only is there an acute funding gap at the scale-up stage here, less than 20% of the capital invested at that stage is domestic, so when companies in our region are acquired or move to the public markets, UK pensioners and savers miss out, while their Canadian, Australian and Singaporean equivalents benefit."
PCG will also support Phoenix Court Works, its foundation which supports organisations in the North London neighbourhood of Somers Town, as well as more broadly in Camden, and is funded by 10% of profits from Phoenix Court Group's management company and 2% of carry from all the funds.
Dealroom's recently published VC Prominence Rank showed largely US-based Accel on 24 unicorns and Sequoia on 20, while LocalGlobe has mainly invested in Europe and turned up 18 unicorns at seed stage. LocalGlobe's unicorns include At-Bay, Hailo, Motorway, Travelperk and Zego.
Speaking to me over a call, Klein expanded on the plethora of these funding vehicles: "If you look at the companies that get really big, they don't just get really big in the private markets, they get really big in the public markets."
"We all think about Sequoia which has this fund that can invest in both private and public companies, that was 15 years in the making. So our view is if you have the ability to get into companies at seed stage, why wouldn't you want to continue to invest in the breakouts, such as with Latitude, three to four years before these companies are capable of going public? We had eight IPOs last year, why wouldn't you want to invest again? That's Solar. If they're great companies that still have a long way to go, keep holding. Right? We've now got the full life stage funding now for companies."
But what Klein seems to be ultimately driving at, even with the rather forced stuff about 'the New Palo Alto', is that he wants to do VC differently to how it's been perceived in the past. Afterall, there just aren't many other VCs (at least that I know of lately) doing this wide range of both hard-core investing and taking an interest in their local area, and putting 10% of profits and 2% of carry into philanthropic activity. It's clear that PCG would like to build a 'new kind of Bay Area', but this time with less 'Tech Bros' and more 'Tech Values'.

Over the past weekend, we got some interesting tidbits of information regarding what is to come to iRacing, courtesy of Steve Myers! For those of you who don't know, Steve is the Executive Vice President/Executive Producer for the online racing service, and he has been a go-to for some great information on iRacing. I recommend checking out his Twitter for up-to-date info on iRacing.
2018 IndyCar Coming Sooner Than We Think?
One of the most exciting developments for American racing is that IndyCar is going to a new body style next season. While still based on the IR-12 chassis, the rear bumpers on the DW12 have been removed, and the car has a much sleeker, modern look to it. So far, the community has had a positive reception to the car, and the question remains, when will it come to iRacing?
Based on Steve's tweet, it sounds like we should be getting the new car sooner rather than later! The DW12 came to iRacing a full 2 years after the car was first used, much to the frustration of IndyCar fans, but it's nice seeing iRacing being more proactive to get the latest IndyCar iteration out quickly!
The next bit of info should please fans of the iRacing GT3 series! This tweet came from a conversation talking about the possibility of the BMW M6 GT3 coming to iRacing (which sounds very unlikely, since it appears the M6 will be phased out after next season for the M8 GT3?). However, Steve is saying that another GT3 race car should be coming soon (insert "Soon" joke here).
The last tidbit is another confirmation that the development team is working on day-to-night transition in the sim! With the advancements in the sim, such as track build-up, air temps and (limited) weather settings, it seems like day-to-night is the logical next step (especially with endurance races in the sim). It sounds like development is underway on that, and maybe we'll hear more as time goes on (April Fools 2018, anyone?!).
While there isn't too much in the way of concrete confirmations, it sounds like iRacing has some exciting things in the pipeline! What do you think? Let us know!

Q: Are all objects Immutable inside Heap? Given,
public class SomeClass {
     public string SomeName{get;}
     public List<string> RelatedNames{get;}
}

public class Program{
     public void Main(){
          var someClassInstance = new SomeClass(){ SomeName = "A", RelatedNames = new List<string>(1){ "a" }};
          // So, now someClassInstance have been allocated some memory in heap = 1 string object and a list with 1 string object.

          // Since SomeClass is mutable, it could be modified as below
          someClassInstance.SomeName = "Now This is much more than a name";
          someClassInstance.RelatedNames = someClassInstance.RelatedNames.AddRange(new List<string>(100} { "N","o","w".....});

         //Now what happens inside heap?
         //1.someClassInstance.SomeName will move it's pointer to another string inside heap
         //2.someClassInstance.RealtedNames will move it's pointer to another List<>(101) inside heap.
         //Is it correct? Then where is 'mutability' ?
     }
}

As mentioned in the comments above, "AFAIK" on modifying a mutable object the internal pointers of that object will just point to another memory location inside heap. If that is correct, then does that mean that all objects inside heap (reference type) are immutable?
Thanks for your interest.

A: Where's mutability? Right there:
someClassInstance.SomeName = "Now This is much more than a name";
someClassInstance.RelatedNames = new List<string>(100} { "N","o","w".....};

You just mutated the object pointed to by someClassInstance.
Also, your example is a bit contrived. Strings are indeed immutable, but Lists are not, so you could have done this:
someClassInstance.RelatedNames.Add("HELLO!");

And then you just mutated the object pointed to by someClassInstance.RelatedNames.

EDIT: I see you changed your question. Well, then:

*

*someClassInstance.SomeName will move it's pointer to another string inside heap

*someClassInstance.RealtedNames will move it's pointer to another List<>(101) inside heap.

1 is true because String was designed to be immutable. That's why there's the StringBuilder class in case you need a mutable string.
2 is false, because that's not how List is implemented. Perhaps that's where your confusion comes from. Still, when you invoke AddRange, someClassInstance.RelatedNames will still point to the same instance, but that instance's internal state will have changed (most likely, its backing array will have been changed to point to a different array object, and its count would now be 101). In fact, a reference cannot magically change based on the operations that are invoked to the object it refers to.
And none of that changes the fact that someClassInstance's internal state was mutated anyway.

A: Object in the CLR are definitely not immutable by default.  There is a little bit of confusion here because you've used string in your example which is a type that's implemented as an immutable type.  This is certainly not the default in .Net though and mutability is far more common than immutability.
Take this line as an example
someClassInstance.SomeName = "Now This is much more than a name";

There are 3 objects of interest here in this statement.

*

*The object referenced by someClassInstance.SomeName

*The string which has the value "Now this is much more than a name"

*The object referenced by 'someClassInstance`

All 3 of these values live in the heap.  The execution of this statement will mutate the contents of the object referenced by someClassInstance.  This is a prime example of mutability in action.  If everything in this scenario were immutable then the settnig of SomeName would need to produce a copy of the object referenced by someClassInstance and give it the new value.  This doesn't happen here and can be demonstrated by the following
var obj = someClassInstance;  // Both reference the same object
someClassInstance.SomeName = "hello";
Console.WriteLine(someClassInstance.SomeName): // Prints "hello"

A: Yes because they are put on the heap using new or malloc and are pointers.  As such you can only add or remove pointer references.  So technically the objects themselves are not immutable, since they are not on the heap to begin with, but the pointer allocations on the heap are immutable.

Flavell leaves Breakers for Melbourne
The SKYCITY Breakers announce today that assistant coach Judd Flavell will be leaving the team to take on a new role as assistant coach with the South East Melbourne Phoenix for what will be their inaugural season in the NBL.
Judd has been an assistant coach with the New Zealand Breakers for 13 seasons and played a key role in the team's four championships. He was also integral in the formation of the New Zealand Breakers Elite Academy which he ran for 10 years helping to create a pathway for many up-and-coming New Zealand athletes.
Judd Flavell said "I've been hugely privileged to be have been part of such an amazing club. In my 13 years as a Breaker I have seen the club grow from strength to strength, from humble beginnings to arguably NZ's most successful sporting franchise.
Our four championships will always have huge significance to me but the people I've worked with is what has made it so special. I've been lucky enough to have learnt and worked alongside some of the great coaches in this league and will be forever grateful for the start that Paul, Liz and Andrej gave me.
I'm proud of the achievements and impact the club and the Breakers Academy has had on so many aspiring youngsters that have come through and are now living their dream of playing college and professional basketball and representing their country on the world stage.
On behalf of my family and I, we would like to say a huge thanks to Paul, Liz, Matt and the entire Breakers family for making such a significant impact on our lives."
Dillon Boucher, SKYCITY Breakers General Manager thanked Flavell for his many years of service to the team "We want to extend a big thank you to Judd for his long service with the club. Judd has been an important part of the team's four championships and we wish Judd the best in his new role as he embarks on helping the South East Melbourne Phoenix build their new franchise. It is a credit to what the Breakers have built here in New Zealand that these new NBL franchises view Breakers staff as some of the best in the business."
The SKYCITY Breakers will begin the process of looking for a replacement assistant coach over the coming weeks.

After Wimbledon, real tennis cuts to the chase
By AFP, London
22nd-Jul-2018
As the dust settles at Wimbledon, the real tennis action is under way: the world's best players of the original sport are duelling it out at the game's spiritual home.
Real tennis, the historic forerunner of the modern sport, is still played on a few dozen courts across the globe, including at Hampton Court Palace in London.
On a court originally built in 1530 for king Henry VIII, the top players are laying chases and hitting boomerangs, giraffes and railroads - some of the sport's quirky moves.
"It's the best game, ever. Simple," said world champion Rob Fahey, considered the sport's all-time greatest player.
"It's the beginning of everything," the 50-year-old Australian told AFP in the palace grounds.
"The most important thing is to realise it isn't tennis," he explained.
"It looks a lot like tennis but a lot of games have derived from this so we've got elements of squash and any other racquet sport you can think of. You've got to be a master of all trades."
The Royal Tennis Court at Hampton Court Palace was built by kings, for kings to play on.
It is the real tennis equivalent of Wimbledon's Centre Court: the spiritual home of the game.
The Champions Trophy, disputed on the historic court and featuring the world's top players, runs until Sunday.
It is one of the sport's 10 tournaments earning ranking points.
Real tennis survives on fewer than 50 courts worldwide: around half are in Britain, with others in the United States and a few in Australia and France.
The Royal Tennis Court is the busiest in the world, in constant use 364 days a year.
Clubs need to make their own balls, which are hard and solid, unlike lawn tennis balls.
Weighing 81 to 88 grammes, they are comprised of crumbled wine corks, tightly wrapped in cling film and tied in twine, bound in cotton tape, then stitched into yellow felt.
"A well-made ball has to survive quite a robust game," said Nick Wood, the head professional at the Royal Tennis Court, as he finished making a ball.
The marker, a fellow pro who officiates over a match, needs quick reactions, ducking out of the way of shots.
"There is a certain amount of bravery," Wood said.
"The ball comes off the racquet at up to 100 miles (160 kilometres) per hour. It's like an Exocet missile coming straight at you. It will break bones."
The sport still uses wooden racquets with a small, angled head.
Lawn tennis-style graphite racquets were tried but they were judged too powerful and "destroyed the grace and skill of the game", said Wood.
The sport evolved as a street game played in medieval European courtyards, hence its asymmetrical layout, with what looks like a row of small shops along two sides whose windows and roofs are part of the court.
Its French name, jeu de paume, refers to the time before racquets when it was played with the open palm.
There were once 250 courts in Paris alone; there are now two in France. Rather than play in the dirty streets, the nobility had their own courts built.


I shall summarise the main characteristics of the INFN Laboratorio Internazionale del Gran Sasso (LNGS), including a few historical elements, and its research programme, considering both the running experiments and the projects under development. I shall then give a few details on the main experiments, their recent result and the perspectives for the future.
I am grateful to R. Antolini, C. Galbiati, M. Schumann, M. Selvi and S. Ragazzi for providing the necessary information.

That is an amazing encounter Ross. Here in the UK I have only see a group of ravens, (a small one at that) at The Tower of London. They are very imposing animals as they jollop across the green. I cannot imagine having 100 of these enormous birds in the trees above my head! How intimidating but how breathtaking!
The Tower of London ravens don't fly they have their flight feathers clipped, as legend says if the six resident ravens ever leave the Tower then the kingdom will fall. King Charles II put this one in place.
Ravens were very rare in Britain but are making a comeback and I saw a news clip a while back about a pair of ravens nesting on the White Cliffs of Dover in Kent, South of England. If nothing else British ravens (Corvus Corax) obviously appreciate major landmarks in our country!
Thanks for adding a comment. I have walked the grounds at The Tower of London and seen the ravens. I have no fear of these amazing, intelligent birds but was surprised with just how many I saw on the day.

Q: Incremental builds not working with go build, only with go install I'm running a project using Go Modules with 1.11.4 on Ubuntu, running in WSL.
My problem is that I'm having getting incremental builds to work as I expect. Perhaps this is due to me misunderstanding how it's supposed to, but I'd be glad if someone could clarify if that is the case.
Just as an example, if I do go build ./... then everything is built, as expected.
If I now do go build ./... again without any changes, my expectation was that due to the incremental builds, this time nothing would be built. But it builds everything again. I tried doing go build -i ./... (even though my understanding is that -i isn't needed anymore from 1.10), but the result is the same. This has been puzzling me for some time, as after reading the documentation I indeed expected the go build command to produce incremental builds.
The other day I realized that if instead I do go install ./... first, and then go install ./... again a second time, the second time around nothing is built, as I would expect. If I change a single module and run go install ./... again, then only that module is rebuilt, again what I would expect. So this gives me incremental builds.
So my questions are
1) Did I misunderstand go build ./... and how it handles incremental builds? Do I need to use go install instead?
2) Typically, we build the modules one by one, using the -o flag to specify an output path. Using go install instead, there is no -o option to specify an output path. Is there anything I can do to achieve something similar to -o using go install?
Thanks!

Annan Athletic were only a minute away from earning a place in the fourth round of the Scottish Cup for the first time in their history when Sean Dickson scored a dramatic equaliser for Stenhousemuir to send the game into extra time. It was a similar situation to that experienced in the first match but on this occasion the roles were reversed with the away side grabbing the last minute goal to keep their cup hopes alive exactly what Annan done in the previous game after Keiran Brannan had deprived them with a last minute goal.
It was an exciting cup tie but it is a game that Annan will look back on with some regret, in the first half Annan totally controlled and outplayed Stenhousemuir and deservedly went in at half time courtesy of a 31st minute Josh Todd goal and when David Hopkirk doubled Annan's lead in the 48th minute you could only see one winner. But as so often happens the balance of play from here on in swung heavily in favour of the visitors as Annan elected to play deep in their own half and when John Gemmell converted a 76th minute penalty to pull a goal back it was backs to the wall as Annan were forced to defend deep and you could sense there would be a sting in the tail as Stenhousemuir piled on the pressure.
Annan dominated the opening 20 minutes and their neat composed football had the visitors on the back foot but for all their territorial advantage at this stage in the match Annan failed to seriously test Smith in the Warriors goal. In the 22nd minute Andrew Mitchell's low near post shot tested the keeper and minutes later a promising move ended when Chris Jardine skied the ball over the bar from the edge of the box. Andrew Mitchell then had a good effort which went narrowly past as Annan went in search of the goal that their play merited. The vital opening came in the 31st minute when Hopkirk sent in a dangerous near post ball and once again Josh Todd was at hand to nip in at the post to give Annan the edge. Steven Swinglehurst then rose above everybody to connect with a Love corner but his effort went over the bar.
Stenhousemuir started the second half positively and close range shots form Dickson and Douglas were cleared off the goal line but it was Annan who went further ahead in the 48th minute. The goal however was a due in some part to bad defending when Devlin's short pass back was intercepted by David Hopkirk and the Annan player calmly rounded the keeper to side foot the ball into the empty net. From here on in it all went downhill for Annan and they invited Stenhousemuir by defending deep and as the visitors gathered the momentum Mitchell in the Annan goal was called into action depriving Douglas, Dickson and substitute McNeil.
The opening arrived in the 76th minute and it came from the penalty spot after Alex Mitchell was adjudged to have fouled Ross McNeil who made the most of the collision and John Gemmell blasted the ball right down the middle to bring Stenhousemuir back into contention. As the game edged towards full time Malone was deprived when Swinglehurst cleared off the goal-line. Then came the dramatic equaliser that sent the game into extra time when Sean Dickson turned in the box to guide the ball into the corner of the net from eight yards.
Stenhousemuir were dealt a blow minutes into the added time when Ross McMillan was sent off for handling a ball played into the path of Kenny MacKay minutes later Andrew Mitchell had a good effort which clipped the top of the cross bar. John Gemmell came close when his effort slipped past the post. In the final minute of the first half Stenhousemuir went ahead when Sean Lynch clipped the ball over Mitchell form 15 yards. Annan's misery was completed at the start of the second half when Gemmell hit the bye line and his near post cross was despatched into the net by Ross McNeill.

Before looking at how to make an employee development plan, the first consideration is why you'd want to plan and manage your employees' development. There are several reasons for this, among the most obvious and immediate of which is that more skilled employees will be more effective, boosting your business's performance. The better they can do their jobs, the better off your company will be.
Beyond that, nurturing existing talent in your business can be an investment that saves you money and time down the line. If you are able to promote from within, filling vacancies with employees that already know the business and are ready to take the step up, you can save yourself the expense and hassle of hiring new employees for the upper echelons of the company.
Providing opportunities for development and advancement will also motivate employees, keeping them engaged and even keeping them at your business when they might otherwise have left. A recent survey found that most of the factors contributing to employee engagement at which employers scored lowest related to training and development. Keeping employees happy in their roles, and therefore sticking with your company, will save you the cost of having to replace them, which averages around £30,000 mostly due to lower productivity from new hires as they get up to speed.
Naturally, employees are happier when they have clear career and development goals in mind. Planning this development process, rather than merely 'allowing' employees to 'grow' organically, can improve results, motivation, and accountability.
What makes an effective employee development plan?
Having established that developing employees is worthwhile, how do managers create a plan that delivers results for the employees under their guidance as well as the wider business? There are some key steps to make the process of building a development plan successful.
It's important to keep in mind that the end results of any plan should benefit both your employee AND your business, so evaluate what your needs are both now and in the future. If you're planning to bring in a new team, you'll need more leaders to head up that area. If your product is due an update, perhaps it's technical and design roles that will be most necessary.
The career trajectories of other employees will factor in here too. Do you have an experienced manager stepping down soon, or a brilliant young student leaving to travel or study? Identify the role and skill gaps you may need to fill in the near and possibly also distant future.
Having determined what the business needs, you then need to find out what your employees' plans are. Find a time to talk one-on-one and ask them about both their current role and their future ambitions. Cover things they enjoy and aspects they struggle with, as well as what they'd like to do. Consider how their aims align with those of the business. Some employees may want to rise as quickly as possible, but others may be happy with the status quo. You shouldn't assume everyone wants to be promoted.
Your evaluation of the needs of both business and individual should hopefully produce an overlap of skills. Use these to create goals that will improve employees' skill-sets and deliver value for the company. Use SMART principles to ensure goals are effective by making them Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timely. This produces targets that employees understand, can track their progress towards, aren't impossible, relate to the intended skills, and have a set timeframe for completion.
Having decided what employees are looking to achieve, consider how they will do so. While they need to take ownership of their development, consider what support the business can provide. Is there preparation to be completed or will they need cover while they complete training or try new roles? Strike a balance that delivers the best results for them while minimising disruption to everyday operations.
We hope you can use these tips to create employee development plans that improve your business in the short and long-term, leaving you with skilled and engaged employees!


Lawmakers have gotten no slack among transportation interests for the eight-month refueling of the federal Highway Trust Fund that passed as Congress was packing for its August recess.
Former U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, who's now co-chair of an advocacy group called Building America's Future, said the $10.8 billion patch to prevent the fund from going dry next month was useless in terms of "developing any kind of planning or vision."
The head of the Association of Equipment Distributors and the president of the American Road & Transportation Builders Association both said the patch was better than letting the fund fail, but hardly an answer to a problem that has been seen coming for years.
LaHood's group makes no bones about the need for a 10-cents-per-gallon increase in the fuel tax that powers the trust fund. The equipment distributors say there has to be more money coming in, though they won't say whether it should be tax option or something else. ARTBA said Congress needs to step up to finding a permanent solution this year and not wait for the clock to be almost out of time again next May.

Robert Pierpoint (* 4. Mai 1791 in Litchfield, Connecticut; † 23. September 1864 in Rutland, Vermont) war ein US-amerikanischer Politiker, der von 1848 bis 1850 Vizegouverneur von Vermont war.

Leben
Pierpoint wurde in Litchfield, Connecticut geboren. Als er sieben Jahre alt war, zog er zu seinem Onkel nach Manchester, Vermont. Mit 16 begann er Jura zu studieren und bekam 1812 seine Zulassung als Anwalt. Danach war er zuerst in Manchester, später in Rutland tätig.

Im Britisch-Amerikanischen Krieg war er Steuereintreiber und von 1820 bis 1839 bekleidete er das Amt des Stadtschreibers für Rutland County, Vermont. Er war 1819 und 1823 Abgeordneter im Repräsentantenhaus von Vermont und von 1825 bis 1831 Mitglied im Colonial government in the Thirteen Colonies.

Visiting his grandfather's construction sites as a child opened up Dominic's fascination for all aspects of design, from fine art and fashion to architecture.
As a registered architect, Dominic has an extensive project repertoire built across eight years of experience. Since starting at DKO in 2014, he has dealt in many project scales from multi-residential housing, mid and high-rise apartments, hotels and master planning. Dominic's leadership skills have been noted in the business for their successful outcomes, aided by his artful management in feasibility studies, concept designs and planning.
His approach to projects is always relative, with methodology and process having the same rigour, always with different built outcomes, as each context, brief or client calls for a different response. Consistent, is his ability to see projects through completion always at the highest quality and most careful consideration.

Q: Given a list of images, how do I programmatically find their h and v size? Given a list of images, you can manually send them to Chrome which will report their horizontal and vertical pixel numbers.
This can take hours in the middle of what should be a programmable task.
How?
Again, manual works just fine but takes too long.
Need to send a list to something that returns sizes.
This is part of using .PDF to replace .xsl. Details at http://www.tinaja.com/whtnu19.shtml
Eliminate several hours of manual programming from what should be a fully automated process. Must work on all flavors of images.

A: You should not need a programming environment to do this, I think you can do it in the OS. For example:

*

*Windows: Get image file dimensions in .bat file

*On a Mac: Get pixel dimensions of a PNG on my Mac

*Linux: Shell command to get pixel size of an image
I'm a Python person, so I'd probably use pillow (from PIL import Image; img = Image.open('image.jpg'); print(img.size)) but it's straightforward to do in most modern languages, e.g. see this question for a JavaScript solution: How to get image size (height & width) using JavaScript?
Which approach you use depends on where you're getting the rest of your workflow done.

A: Turns out that exactly what I needed was mediainfo. Two alternatives are .bat files and a powershell.
Thanks for your help.

Joy is something I think about pretty regularly, as I have experienced a lot of sorrow. Some of the sorrow came from circumstances, but much of it came from an inner sense of emptiness or worthlessness. I admit that even after I started following Jesus I experienced that second kind of sorrow. It has taken much, much longer than I would have liked for me to grasp my value as a daughter of The King. There were so many lies to contend with….
I remember standing on the roof of my dorm building in college, desperately wanting to jump the ten stories to the busy street below.
When I finally came home from Chicago (I stayed for quite a while trying to get a job to stay in the city), I spent a whole year believing that God had given up on the idea of using me for His kingdom.
But here is what I passionately love about God, and what He has been showing me over and over and over again. Firstly, He knows me! He knew when I applied to go to college (with the intention of being a missionary with my degree) that I would not graduate. I really (really) wrestled with that thought, especially when I felt sure He didn't want me to work on His team anymore. WHY DID YOU SEND ME IF YOU KNEW I WOULD FAIL?!?!?!
And you know what happens? Initially they do reject him! Pharaoh laughs at him and when the Israelites are punished for Moses' request, even they are angry with him and reject him.
I can almost feel what Moses felt after this rejection materialized straight from his earlier fears. Before going to college I was like, "Are you sure I should go? After all, you know how I tend to fail things.
What God offered Moses and me and everyone is: Himself. If you know Him, you know what an amazing and unbelievable offer this is. His call on Moses' life, on my life and on your life is not dependent upon who we are but is completely dependent upon who He is. And He is perfect.
The second thing I love about God is that even though He knows me better than anyone ever will, He DEEPLY loves me. He wants me, even.
Just like He told Moses, "I AM" in response to Moses' fears about himself, God spoke to me about a year after I left college and said to me, "Your purpose on this planet is not To Be A Missionary. Your purpose here is to know Me. You can do that anywhere, in any occupation and any country." What this statement did for me was totally free me from requirements I had placed on myself about belonging to God and serving Him.
What does this have to do with joy? Like the song, which links boundless joy with knowing ones worth, these revelations of God's love and sovereignty in my life have transformed me.
It hasn't been a sudden transformation. There have been many times over the years that people close to me have suggested things like counseling and medication. While I don't reject those forms of help at all (in fact, counseling is a good idea for everyone!) I have simply followed where God was leading me and I have only had short seasons of counseling and never felt led to get medication. What God has done instead is show me in a relentless kind of fashion how much He values and loves me.
This reality was made so plain to me while I was at home in Washington last week. I had a day off and I was beginning to dwell on leaving my closest friends to be sent back into orbit as a satellite. Back to Colorado. At the very start of this dwelling, I felt God clearly say to me, "Peggy, you have a choice right now." And I knew what He meant. And I knew it was the truth. With the reality of His love in my grasp, I set down the sadness of leaving, knowing that whatever He has for me is going to be beautiful because He will be there.
So I got up and met the day with joy and a hope that won't let me go.
love this. Love you. 🙂 I wish MN and CO weren't so far apart.
Wow, somehow this slipped my notice. I love you, too, Jo!
I love watching your family grow through photos 🙂 Maybe y'all will need a mountain vacation some day!

IKEA to reopen 19 stores across England with new rules
How each store operates will depend on where it is in the country
Get our ultimate guide to things to do this summer with DevonLive's FREE What's On newsletter
Homewares and home-furnishing retailer IKEA today announced that it will reopen 19 stores across England from December 2, including Tottenham Court Road's Planning Studio which will re-open for appointments and walk-ins.
In line with local government guidelines, stores in Scotland and Wales as well as Click & Collect facilities will remain open. Whilst the Dublin store is currently closed, it is also set to re-open on December 1.
In November, IKEA closed its stores in line with the Government lockdown, to ensure customer and co-worker safety. Drawing on its experience of reopening IKEA stores safely in May, and following Government guidance around social distancing and safe ways of working, IKEA is looking forward to reopening its stores, having implemented a series of enhanced safety measures to protect co-workers and those customers wanting to shop in-store.
These measures include:
A staggered entry system and limited numbers of customers granted entry in store at any one time.
Customers urged to come prepared with ready-made lists and their own bags, and those wishing purely to return items, are encouraged to do so at a later date. IKEA has a 365 day returns policy
In accordance with Government guidelines, customers to visit in groups of 6 or less, with friends or family that they live with or those in a support bubble
Additional hand sanitiser facilities and more frequent deep cleaning routines for bags, trolleys, bathrooms, rest areas, equipment and touchscreens
Screens at key areas such as checkouts, service points and customer returns, to enable social distancing
In-store planning services to resume with screens and social distancing
Cashless payments, by card and contactless
All play areas will remain closed
In line with stores reopening, customers will now be able to pick up Christmas trees outside of participating stores in the UK.
Available now, customers can purchase a real fir tree for £29 and receive a £20 voucher to redeem across a range of homewares in the new year.
The much-anticipated deal makes the overall cost of the tree itself just £9, meaning shoppers can make their Christmas budget stretch further this year. Ensuring the freshest trees for its customers, IKEA will only be stocking Nordmann fir trees grown in Scotland in stores located in England and Scotland. Meanwhile, IKEA Cardiff will be stocking trees grown in Wales.
Restaurants will remain closed for stores in Tier 3, however the Bistro, which operates a contact-free takeaway service, will re-open.

For stores in Tier 2 locations, the restaurant and Bistro will re-open with extensive safety measures in place including: two-metre distancing, screens and deeper and more frequent cleaning routines.
Peter Jelkeby, UK&IE Country CEO and CSO, says: "We're looking forward to warmly welcoming customers and co-workers back into our stores from 2nd December.
"IKEA believes that home is the most important place in the world and this year more than ever it has played a vital role in catering to our emotional and physical needs. As we have been throughout lockdown, we remain committed to helping people to live, work and play more comfortably from home.
"We know that for many, Christmas is a special time of year, so we're excited to re-open our doors and help our customers prepare for their much-needed celebrations."

What the UK's most well-known doctors say about a safe Christmas
All in-home services remain in operation as usual. These include 'room of choice' delivery, Task Rabbit assembly and kitchen measuring and installation services. The health and safety of our customers and co-workers have been our primary concern since the start of the pandemic and we closely follow the 'Working Safely in Other People's Homes' guidance.
In addition to stores reopening, IKEA is supporting customers' evolving needs at home through a range of online, click & collect and contact-free home delivery services, including:
Contactless Click & Collect available at all large stores, free for purchases over £100
