Nexyad, HERE Tech to bring cognitive AI-tech to improve vehicle safety
Nexyad uses cognitive AI to aggregate extensive data sources in a vehicle in real-time and interprets them to assess whether a certain driving behaviour is appropriate given the surrounding context.
By Autocar Pro News Desk 06 Jul 2021 6644 Views Share -
France-based Nexyad, an embedded, real-time platform for aggregating on-board data and HERE Technologies, a leading location data and technology platform are now working together to apply cognitive AI to road safety.
Nexyad uses cognitive AI to aggregate extensive data sources in a vehicle in real-time and interprets them to assess whether a certain driving behaviour is appropriate given the surrounding context. The assessment can easily be delivered to a driver through a mobile phone, can be calculated from four sets of data only: HERE map, Global Navigation Satellite System, electronic horizon and acceleration. Nexyad's platform is also scalable and can aggregate data from Advanced Driving Assistant Systems (ADAS) sensors to include camera, radar and LiDAR, weather (visibility and temperature), and traffic data.
The real-time data aggregation platform provides two output values 20 times every second: the lack of caution of the driver and the maximum speed recommended given the road conditions – legal speed limit, road roughness, topography of the road, weather, and traffic. Nexyad bases its analysis on several thousand road accident reports, using a set of rules from modern hybrid AI which includes knowledge-based systems, deep learning, neural gas, PAC (Possibly Approximatively Correct) learning, game theory, reinforcement learning, possibility theory and fuzzy logic.
By recommending a 'maximum cautious speed' based on real-time data and context-specific to every single vehicle, driver and driving environment, the company approach goes much further than the European requirement for vehicles to be aware of the legal speed limit on each road segment (Intelligent Speed Assist). Nexyad says its safety coach called SafetyNex acts as a true co-pilot for the driver as it provides real-time guidance so as to anticipate possible emergency situations ahead that may lead to an accident. This proactive coaching activates while driving and has been demonstrated to reduce accident rates by at least 25%.
Nexyad provides drivers with a score that reflects the risk associated with their driving behaviour. Its platform is being used by insurers to provide recommendations to drivers and generate a risk profile. India's Montbleu also relies on Nexyad's SafetyNex for its smartphone-based app 'Road-Drive it Safe'. Nexyad has started to integrate the HERE HD Live Map to provide OEMs with predictive automotive cruise control services whereby appropriate speeds are not only being recommended but automatically implemented. Moving forward, connected vehicles will use SafetyNex to assess the level of caution of their own driving and will be able to adopt the appropriate speed even in unknown road conditions.
Gerrard Yahiaoui, CEO, Nexyad said: "We found that the maps from HERE are accurate to the centimetre and constantly updated to the second. Every detail counts for us - the topography of the road, the exact positioning of the crossing, the location of a school. With our mission being to save lives, we cannot settle for anything less than the best."
Gilles Martinelli, director of Automotive, HERE Technologies said: "Nexyad's SafetyNex software is one of a kind – not only does it provide a score for the lack of caution of the driver, based on the environment in real time, it also recommends an appropriate driving speed. This is the future for Predictive Automotive Cruise Control systems, insurers and autonomous vehicles."

DNREC to Lift Advisory on Use of Bird Feeders and Baths as Songbird Mortality Decreases
Division of Fish and Wildlife | News | Date Posted: Tuesday, August 24, 2021

Investigation into Mysterious Songbird Mortality Event Continues
Occurrences of a mysterious songbird illness and mortality event have decreased in the state to the extent that the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control has lifted an advisory issued in June asking that the public temporarily discontinue use of bird feeders and baths. The advisory was initially issued as a precaution to minimize the spread of the still-unknown cause of the songbird mortality event.
The following procedures are recommended for resuming use of bird feeders and baths:
Initially thoroughly clean bird feeders and baths with a 10% bleach solution and weekly thereafter
Remove bird feeders and baths if sick or dead birds are observed
Avoid handling wild birds, wearing disposable gloves if it is necessary to handle a bird
Keep pets away from sick and dead wild birds
Since late May, wildlife agencies and wildlife rehabilitators in more than 10 states and Washington D.C. have responded to public reports of sick and dying songbirds, more than 150 reports made in Delaware. Affected birds typically exhibit symptoms to include eye swelling and squinting, crusty discharge around the eyes or neurologic symptoms such as erratic flight and stumbling, often followed by the death of the bird. Juvenile birds appear to be more affected than adults, with European starlings, blue jays, northern cardinals and American robins the most reported affected species.
Investigating agencies and organizations continue working cooperatively with animal diagnostic laboratories to identify the cause of this illness. While the cause of the songbird mortality event is not yet known, none of the following pathogens have been detected in sick or diseased birds to date: Salmonella and Chlamydia, avian influenza virus, West Nile and other flaviviruses, Newcastle disease virus and other paramyxoviruses, herpesviruses and poxviruses and Trichomonas parasites. No human health, domestic livestock or poultry issues have been reported in association with the bird mortality event.
Observations of live songbirds in Delaware exhibiting the above-mentioned symptoms can be reported to Tri-State Bird Rescue & Research at 302-737-9543. Additional information can be found on the organization's website: www.tristatebird.org. A dead songbird seen to have displayed any of the aforementioned symptoms can be reported to the DNREC Division of Fish and Wildlife at 302-735-3600.

This is a demonstration of a living network as an alternative to the World Wide Web.  It models a minimal operating system that initializes a set of primitive capabilities, then negotiates with remote agents to bootstrap an interactive system.  The idea is partly inspired by an [interview](http://www.drdobbs.com/architecture-and-design/interview-with-alan-kay/240003442?pgno=2) with Alan Kay.

This demo is not even close to being fit for real world use.  At the very least, besides extending beyond a local simulation, the system must protect itself from malicious code coming from remote agents.  Basic safety could be achieved with resource consumption quotas and an execution model that does not expose ambient authority.

Aside from safety concerns, the current system has not realized the potential for programmability by the user.  For a complete experience, the programming language implementation this system sits on must support highly interactive evaluation of negotiated programs.  It must be possible to visualize, pause, step through (manually or at a regular interval), modify, copy, or even pull components out of a program for use in other programs.  To get a better idea of what is possible, try out [Squeak Etoys](http://www.squeakland.org).

## Getting Started

1. Install [Racket 6 or greater](http://download.racket-lang.org/).
   - On Mac OSX you probably want to use brew: `brew install Caskroom/cask/racket`
2. Install gregr-misc: `raco pkg install git://github.com/gregr/racket-misc`
3. Clone this repo and `cd` to it.
4. Start service and user machines.
   - If running on a platform with `setsid` (e.g. not Mac OSX) do the following:
       - To run with a clean slate (creating new machines), run: `./clean-start`
           - When asked if you'd like to install a server kernel, enter: `n`
       - To restart existing machines while preserving state, run: `./start`
   - If running on a platform without `setsid` (e.g. Mac OSX) do the following instead:
       - To run with a clean slate:
           - Terminal 1: `./script/clean`
           - Terminal 1: `./script/start-remotes`
           - Terminal 2: `./script/start-user`
               - When asked if you'd like to install a server kernel, enter: `n`
       - To restart existing machines while preserving state, run the start scripts again:
           - Terminal 1: `./script/start-remotes`
           - Terminal 2: `./script/start-user`
5. Evaluate racket expressions within the REPL.

## Introduction

Upon booting, you will be given a racket REPL with access to machine capabilities and a suggestion for retrieving the MOTD.  Aside from basic "hardware" access, you should also see `get` and `negotiate` in the capabilities list.  These two operations form the heart of this minimal design.

* `get` is used to retrieve data, uninterpreted, from a remote source.  You may think of this as similar to `GET` in the WWW design, but without the weight and assumptions of HTTP.

* `negotiate` is used to retrieve and evaluate a program from a remote source.

And that's all you need to get going.  Consider the WWW, which specifies, up front and in great detail, the form and communication of content you may publish and consume, and the manner in which you may navigate and display that content.  Under the WWW assumptions, such specification is necessary for remote agents to properly interoperate.  In contrast, this design supports just-in-time interoperation via `negotiate`: because a remote agent can directly provide you with a program, it can teach your system how to interoperate with it.  And it can use whatever "protocol" it deems fit for the purpose.  All your system needs is an interpreter.

If you are even vaguely familiar with issues of web security, `negotiate` will sound dangerous.  Indeed, given a typical programming language running on a typical operating system, such an operation would be dangerous if left unchecked.  There are some standard approaches to mitigating this danger, depending on the particular technology:

* Flash or Java applets:
  - Danger is mitigated by running within a sandbox.  While sandboxed execution prevents programs from harming you, it also limits what you can do with them.

* Javascript in the browser:
  - Danger is mitigated by not providing much more than the ability to script the browser.  The limitations are similar to sandboxed execution.

* Downloading arbitrary, native desktop software from the internet to install and run locally:
  - Danger is mitigated by asking if you're really really sure you want to install/run something from company X.  You're not limited, but neither is the program.  Who knows what it will do to you?

In contrast to these approaches, this design illustrates how to mitigate danger through [capability-based security](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability-based_security).  `negotiate` retrieves data from a remote source, interpreting it as a procedure expecting a single context argument.  This context represents all the power you are willing to hand over to it to do its work.  Typical programming languages expose ample amounts of ambient authority, allowing such a procedure to sabotage you.  But in a capability-secure programming language, this procedure will not have access to any dangerous capabilities that you do not explicitly hand over.  The remote program can be a first-class citizen, safe to run side-by-side with the rest of your program.

Caveat: while this demo points in the right direction, it is not itself secure as it does not make use of a capability-secure programming language.

## Summary

So what exactly is the new technology on display here?  There isn't really any.  The main contribution is to demonstrate an alternative arrangement of existing ideas.  This arrangement could be summed up as:

1. Distribute native desktop software at least as transparently as today's web content.
2. Run and cooperate safely with this software in a capability-secure environment.

The effect of this simple re-organization should not be underestimated.  The danger currently involved in installing and running native software from the internet creates friction, encouraging it to be bundled as large, monolithic applications whose components can't easily be reused.  By eliminating the danger and minimizing friction, it becomes affordable to distribute native software as smaller, more flexible modules that can be composed in unanticipated ways.  This may sound like today's installation and use of software libraries by programmers.  The difference is in granularity and transparency: safe and convenient even for the smallest components, even for the average user of a computer.

## Examples

In case you haven't found them on your own, here are the remote systems you may interact with:

* `(negotiate "motd.demo" '())`
    - This is a simple message-of-the-day server.

* `(negotiate "hypodoc.demo" '())`
    - This is an extremely-underpowered, mostly-untested collaborative "cloud-based" text editor.  It's ugly and probably full of bugs.
    - Awkwardly enter commands of the following forms (omitting quotes) at  the `>` prompt:
        - `" "`: pass (used to take no action but still display any updates received from collaborators)
        - `"q"`: quit
        - `"j"`: move down one line
        - `"k"`: move up one line
        - `"h"`: move left one character
        - `"l"`: move right one character
        - `"g"`: move up to the first line
        - `"G"`: move down to the last line
        - `"0"`: move to the beginning of the line
        - `"$"`: move to the end of the line
        - `"x"`: delete
        - `"d"`: backspace
        - `"J"`: append the next line to the current line
        - `""`: enter (add a newline)
        - `"o"`: create an empty line below the current line
        - `"O"`: create an empty line above the current line
        - `"r<REPLACEMENT-CHAR>"`: replace the current character
        - `"i<STRING>"`: insert a string of characters at the current position
    - To examine the collaborative aspect run `./script/start-user` after bootstrapping to start a second user instance.

Although it's inconvenient at the moment, you may of course also `(get "remote-of-your-choice.demo" '())` to retrieve the remote program without actually executing it, so that you can modify or make other use of it from the REPL.

## TODO

- more sophisticated authority management
    - capability guardedness spectrum
    - logging, revocation, time-boxing, throttling, permission appeals

- tabbed multitasking terminal UI with interaction control panel for each process
    - multiplexer creates pipe-console for each new process
    - tabbed viewing of virtual console + control panel for each
        - control panel shows cap requests and includes ability to revoke caps at any time
    - UI considerations:
        - ability to pause/terminate child processes at any time
        - up-front requests necessary for dangerous capabilities when starting process
            - late request for a dangerous capability is auto-denied
                - process should be paused (to allow manual override) or killed outright
            - options
                - grant
                    - possibly also requesting logging, subsequent permission prompting, etc.
                - do not grant
                    - optionally may allow process to start anyway; because you're curious
            - options may also be conveniently set beforehand per-capability
                - globally and/or on a per-site basis
        - requests for user input to a capability
            - follow the usual rules, but if granted, provide an appropriate input dialog
            - examples
                - user asked to enter an account password into a pop-up text box
                - user asked to choose a file from a dialog box

- contexts
    - everything is optional and could be provided dynamically by asking the user for permission
        - some requests may be nonstandard and require intelligent agent to view the requesting code to figure out what it needs to proceed
        - request could include constraints such as full spec or just example inputs, outputs, effects
            - would enable more automation

- communicating with aliens
    - establishing conventions, deciphering foreign protocols, rosetta stones

notes on accessibility and privacy

            - different visualizations/arrangements of info for users you're working with directly, indirectly, etc.
                - users sharing your UI components (widgets, workspaces...)
                - users not sharing your UI components, but are using applications whose state is visible in your UI
                - personal contact lists
                - interest-oriented contact directories/networks
                - presence
                    - input focus (are they actively focusing on a widget, or is their attention elsewhere?)
                        - network connection indicates presence, but doesn't necessarily communicate fine-grained focus
                        - notify those nearby of your focus/actions to keep them updated
                    - idleness (actively focused, but not taking any actions)
                        - idleness detection: evidence-based heuristic + voluntary/courtesy indications
                        - access/use provides momentary evidence of presence

    - design example for a collaborative editing application
        - term or document (text files, ASTs, etc.)
            - immutable snapshot, transformation produces new term
        - revision
            - term combined with metadata describing how it came into existence
                - e.g. transformation of another term
            - repositories as editable revision aggregates
        - editor state
            - current revision
            - cursors
                - an editor may contain several of these, possibly even more than one per user
                    - a single cursor may also be operated by multiple users simultaneously
                - each contains
                    - a subterm focus; a path (functional reference) into a term
                    - a history of user-annotated changes useful for blame and undo
                    - a set of "redo" trees
                    - other metadata (e.g. an optional list of users currently operating it)
                - some thoughts about capabilities
                    - cursors may be read-only
                    - users may be given read-only control of a non-read-only cursors
                    - users may not even have movement capabilities for a cursor (somebody is giving them a tour)
            - optional reference to upstream editor
                e.g. you may spin off a new editor to work asynchronously/privately and later merge work upstream

Q: How would I add another not equal (!=) to this statement? How would I add another not equal (!=) value to this statement?
if ($(this).data("increase_priority1") && $(this).val() != 1)

I tried reversing the syntax at the beginning of the function which determines if it is equal, but that stopped it from removing items completely (including those not equaling 1)
if ($(this).data("increase_priority1") && $(this).val() != 1 && $(".complaint select").val() != "Too_small")

This function adds and/or remove values from "increase_priority1" when the user has selected both a complaint and ranked the importance level of the issue, and I need it to change the value (in this case what the complaint is) and importance level (i.e. increase_priority1) if either of those 2 fields changes. At the moment it only changes when the importance level changes.
The full function is:
var $increase_priority1 = $(".increase_priority1");
$('.ranking, .complaint select').dropkick({
change: function () {
    var name = $(this)
        .data("name"); //get priority name
    if ($(".complaint select")
        .val() === "Too_small" && $(this)
        .val() == 1 && !$(this)
        .data("increase_priority1")) {
        //rank is 1, and not yet added to priority list
        $("<option>", {
            text: name,
            val: name
        })
            .appendTo($increase_priority1);
        $(this)
            .data("increase_priority1", true); //flag as a priority item
    }
    if ($(this)
        .data("increase_priority1") && $(this)
        .val() != 1) {
        //is in priority list, but now demoted
        $("option[value=" + name + "]", $increase_priority1)
            .remove();
        $(this)
            .removeData("increase_priority1"); //no longer a priority item
    }
}
});

Fiddle which shows this in context: http://jsfiddle.net/chayacooper/vWLEn/132/

A: An OR-operation is true when at least one of the operands is true (possibly both!). Your statement should be:
if ($(this).data("increase_priority1") &&
    ($(this).val() != 1 || $(".complaint select").val() != "Too_small")).

|| is the Javascript-syntax for an OR.
This will run the if if .data("increase_priority1") is true and $(this).val() != 1 or $(".complaint select").val() != "Too_small") is true.
Note that the interpreter will stop if the first part of the && is false, that is to say: it will not even look at the second part. It is the same for the ||, but the other way around, so if the first part of the || is true it will not look at the second part.

Q: can I define struct in a class in F#? this is example code in C# :
class exampleClass
{
    struct exampleStruct
    {
        public int number;
    }

    private exampleStruct[,] e;
    private enum exampleMove { Up, Down, Right, Left, Enter, Escape };
    Stack<int> returnPath;
    bool returntoBeg;
    int numRandomMoves;

    public exampleClass()
    {
        e = new exampleStruct[5, 5];
        exampleStruct ex;
        returntoBeg = false;
        returnPath = new Stack<int>();
        numRandomMoves = 0;

        for (int y = 0; y < 5; y++)
        {
            for (int x = 0; x < 5; x++)
            {
                ex = new exampleStruct();
                ex.number = 0

                e[x, y] = ex;
            }
        }
    }
}

I have an example code like above, i want to translate it into F#. But the problem is, when i make a class using F# and define struct in it, it shows errors and pointing that i can't declare type inside class type. Any help?

A: I think the following is a good workaround for nested types.
namespace MyNamespace

module private PrivateTypes =
  [<Struct>]
  type ExampleStruct(number: int) =
    member __.Number = number

open PrivateTypes

type ExampleClass() =
  let e = Array2D.init 5 5 (fun y x -> ExampleStruct(0))
  //other members

ExampleStruct is nested under PrivateTypes, which is only visible in the same file.

A: While you cannot nest types, you can use intrinsic complex types that F# provides. Tuples are often a good data structure for data that has not very wide, observable scope, such as it is in your case.
In practice, I usually define implementation types in a module called e. g. Internal, and do not allow them to escape from the library. You may also define separate module per logical group of classes or even per complex class implementation.

Must-listen episodes of JRE (cont.)
Posted On October 7, 2018 August 10, 2020 By Ryan Ullman
Click here for Page 1 from the OG Must-Listen Joe Rogan Podcasts Post. These lists contain not only some of the best guests, but I have gone a step further and stilled down the best episodes from those guests for you. Enjoy!
11. Anthony Bourdain – #138
I really enjoyed all of Anthony Bourdain's work on Parts Unknown and what I have seen of No Reservations. Maybe not the most informative JRE episode, but I appreciate the honest discussion in this episode.
I think anyone could learn something by watching Bourdain's body of work. A lot of new shows on Netflix try to emulate his style, in my opinion. It's really not an episode for an "informative podcasts" post, but oh well, it's my blog.
If you enjoyed Anthony Bourdain's work, Joe Rogan had Morgan Fallon, DP, director, and producer on "No Reservations" and "Parts Unknown" with Anthony Bourdain on his podcast recently.

12. Wim Hof – #712 and #865
Otherwise known as the "Iceman," Wim Hof is a Dutch multiple world-record-holder, adventurer, daredevil, and developer of the Wim Hof Method.
I cannot type enough about how crazy this guy is–you and I both save each other a lot of time if you just check out this video here:
More Lawptimal: How to form new lasting habits with an everyday list
Crazy, right? While the efficacy of Wim Hof's method is hotly debated, he has spent a considerable amount of time getting science to recognize it's potential. I have tried this method in the past and it did keep me warm, but it also may have been a total placebo or because I was hyperventilating like some creep. Either way, I'll take it.
Wim Hof also came back in episode #865. I would suggest starting with #712, and if you get the itch for more, then go with #865.
13. Gary Taubes – #904
When it comes to obesity, dietary fat is the main culprit, right?
Gary Taubes is an investigative science and health journalist and co-founder of the nonprofit Nutrition Science Initiative (NuSI.org). He is the author of "The Case Against Sugar," "Why We Get Fat," and "Good Calories, Bad Calories, Bad Science."
More Lawptimal: Making your home yoga practice habitual
I still love my sugar water, but now at least I slightly more guilty each time. Basically, this podcast is fat = good, sugar = bad. But check it out because it is loaded with great dietary information and some discussion about misinformation regarding dietary cholesterol's effect on heart disease. This is also a theme of JRE episode #1058 with Nina Teicholz, author of "The Big Fat Lie." Check that out one out too if this topic interests you.
14. Neil deGrasse Tyson – #919 and #310.
This goes without saying, but the world's leading science communicator has been a prominent guest on JRE and has not disappointed on several occasions.
15. Matthew Walker – #1109
Did you know that the World Health Organisation in 2015 classified any form of night-time shift work as a "probable carcinogen"?
Matthew Walker is Professor of Neuroscience and Psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, and Founder and Director of the Center for Human Sleep Science. He wrote the book "Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams."
One fact that surprised me was that after just one night of only four or five hours' sleep, your natural killer cells–the ones that attack the cancer cells that appear in your body every day–drop by 70%. Matthew Walker also discusses the link from lack of sleep to bowel, prostate, and breast cancers.
This has been one of the most interesting episodes of the Joe Rogan Experience I have listened to so far. Out of any JRE episode, I have listened to, this episode has had the largest impact on my personal habits.
I am one of those people who needs at least 7 hours to feel functional, and since listening to this podcast I have made sleep more of a priority than it used to be.
16. Elon Musk – # 1169
This episode is iconic for several reasons.
You likely already know Elon Musk. Over time he's moved from helping us buy stuff online to making cars, tunnels under Los Angeles, flamethrowers and rockets. This episode has come and gone as an internet meme as well. Exhibit A:
I appreciate how long Elon Musk takes to answer questions in this episode. The discussion itself is very interesting, ranging from Tesla and SpaceX to the upcoming developments with Neuralink.
The two also talk about flying cars and other developments with the Boring Company to reduce automobile traffic. One particularly interesting part of the episode is when Elon Musk warns about the future of AI and humans.

Adam Liscia says:
Dr. Rhonda Patrick is my all time favorite guest. She comes on his show every 10 months or so. Joe Rogan even says at the beginning of each of them, that you'll need to listen to them multiple times with a pen and paper to keep up with the amount of information that she shares. Rhonda Patrick is by far his best health, nutrition, and wellness guest.
Chris Kresser is also another amazing nutrition expert on his show, who is also a repeat guest.
Taubes is a hack. People with an actual understanding of nutrition,physiology and the obesity epidemic, and the science behind them, think Taubes is a fucking joke. He's literally used as a joke among nutrition scientists and researchers. He proposed a nutrition study, which he got funded, and when it didn't get his expected outcome, and showed he was wrong, he decided to move the goalposts.
Since then, more and more studies have shown his hypothesis to be wrong.
Many nutritionists once titillated with his idea, but once the data was presented, he lost all credibility.
He has even admitted, that no amount of scientific data would change his mind, that's the definition of insane.
Not to mention, the guy was a coffee salesman, and suddenly starts selling a "weight loss method" where you put butter in coffee. Come on, it doesn't take a genius to figure out this guy is all about selling people something.

Q: Problems with class initialization I think it's a simple problem but a head scratcher.
I'm getting a ....has no initializers error when there actually are initializers.
Here is my code:
(Edit:  I've updated the PatientData class to include all the additional variables.  I didn't think they made a difference in figuring out the problem, so for the sake of brevity I left them out.)
Data Structures
class PatientData: Identifiable, ObservableObject
{
    let id = UUID()

    @Published var patientName: String = "Name"
    @Published var patientAge: String = "Age"
    @Published var patientDOB: String = "DOB"
    @Published var patientPhone: String = "Phone"
    @Published var patientAddress: PatientAddress

    struct PatientAddress
    {
        var patientStreetAddress: String = "Street"
        var patientCity: String = "City"
        var patientState: String = "State"
        var patientZip: String = "Zip"

        init(patientStreetAddress: String, patientCity: String, patientState: String, patientZip: String)
        {
            self.patientStreetAddress = patientStreetAddress
            self.patientCity = patientCity
            self.patientState = patientState
            self.patientZip = patientZip
        }
    }

    @Published var facilityName: String = "Facility"
    @Published var facilityRoom: String = "Room Number"
    @Published var facilityFloor: String = "Floor"
    @Published var facilityPhoneNumber: String = "Phone Number"

    init(patientName: String, patientAge: String, patientDOB: String, patientPhone: String, patientAddress: PatientAddress, facilityName: String, facilityRoom: String, facilityFloor: String, facilityPhoneNumber: String)
    {
        self.patientName = patientName
        self.patientAge = patientAge
        self.patientDOB = patientDOB
        self.patientPhone = patientPhone
        self.patientAddress = patientAddress
        self.facilityName = facilityName
        self.facilityRoom = facilityRoom
        self.facilityFloor = facilityFloor
        self.facilityPhoneNumber = facilityPhoneNumber
    }
    init() {}
}

Content View
struct ContentView: View
{
    @ObservedObject var patient = PatientData()
    ...
}

A: Note that:
PatientData()

is an equivalent of:
PatientData.init()

Which means that if you want to create your PatientData this way:
@ObservedObject var patient = PatientData()

you need to provide a matching init method (it can be empty as all your @Published properties have already a default value):
init() { }

EDIT
Looking at your full code, it seems like one of your properties has no initial value:
@Published var patientAddress: PatientAddress

An empty init will work only when all your properties are already initialised, which means you need to assign some value to your patientAddress:
@Published var patientAddress = PatientAddress()

However, for this to work, you'd need to add an empty init in PatientAddress as well:
struct PatientAddress {
    ...
    init() {}
}

NOTE
All your code could be much simpler without all these initialisers. If you only use empty init methods you don't have to declare them (they are auto-generated for structs if there are no other initialisers):
class PatientData: Identifiable, ObservableObject {
    let id = UUID()

    @Published var patientName: String = "Name"
    @Published var patientAge: String = "Age"
    @Published var patientDOB: String = "DOB"
    @Published var patientPhone: String = "Phone"
    @Published var patientAddress: PatientAddress = PatientAddress()

    @Published var facilityName: String = "Facility"
    @Published var facilityRoom: String = "Room Number"
    @Published var facilityFloor: String = "Floor"
    @Published var facilityPhoneNumber: String = "Phone Number"
}

extension PatientData {
    struct PatientAddress {
        var patientStreetAddress: String = "Street"
        var patientCity: String = "City"
        var patientState: String = "State"
        var patientZip: String = "Zip"
    }
}

Also, Swift can infer types automatically. You don't usually have to declare types explicitly:
@Published var patientPhone = "Phone"
@Published var patientAddress = PatientAddress()

EMPLOYERS SHOULD NOT OVERLOOK COVID-19 ISSUES WHEN UPDATING EMPLOYEE HANDBOOKS
After weathering the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in March and April, many businesses are now planning the gradual process of reopening and reintegrating employees back to workplaces. This requires employers to reimagine what "new" workplaces will look like, what changes should occur, and how businesses will be restructured to accommodate physical distancing and new legal standards that will regulate how and where employees work.
The COVID-19 pandemic has not just reenergized thinking about telework practices. It has changed perceptions of how employees will commute to work and raised concerns regarding travel practices and long trips using public transportation. It has also altered views regarding the safe use of escalators, elevators, parking facilities, time clocks, restrooms and common work areas. Apart from the physical locations where work is performed, businesses can anticipate modifications to visitor and customer practices and work schedules, such as staggered arrival times, rotating shifts, alternative workweek arrangements and much more. It is difficult to believe this can occur without altering productivity standards.
1. Reviewing And Updating Policies
When addressing issues associated with reopening businesses and returning employees to work, employers should add another important item to their "to do" list. They must remember the importance of reviewing their existing policies and handbooks and adding new policies when warranted by changes to their practices or legal developments. Several bills signed into law in 2019 that took effect this year necessitate revisions to many employers' personnel policies. The COVID-19 pandemic and the ongoing stream of Executive Orders, government mandates, and agency interpretations add a new layer of complexity to the challenges presented by policy and handbook updates. This will require the review and revision of some existing policies and the creation of new policies that respond to the pandemic.
This article examines some of the policies and issues employers should consider in the days and weeks ahead.
2. Policies Impacted By Recent Legislation
Many employers were interrupted in March and April from updating their policies to respond to new legislation that took effect on January 1, 2020. Several California bills require employers to revise their policies. These include the need for new lactation accommodation policies under SB 142 (which amended Labor Code Sections 1030 - 34), revised organ and bone marrow donor leave policies under AB 1223 (which amended Labor Code Section 1510), paid family leave ("PFL") policies under SB 83 (which will increase PFL benefits from six to eight weeks on July 1), and dress and grooming policies, which must be modified under SB 188, a bill that prohibits discrimination under Government Code section 12926(w) based on "protective hairstyles," such as braids, locks and twists. (A detailed review of the workplace reforms is provided in the November 2019 ALERT.)
3. The COVID-19 Pandemic
On April 16, 2020, the Trump Administration announced a three-phase approach to reopening businesses that accords substantial deference to decisions of individual states. California, in turn, adopted a four-stage approach that relies on science and data to prepare for and reopen businesses. As this phased-in process of gradually reintegrating employees to workplaces across the state occurs, employment law practitioners advising businesses and employers should address the pervasive effect of the pandemic on employer policies and practices. This should anticipate that further layoffs are likely for many businesses that face financial perils.
a. Governor Newsom's New Executive Orders
The need to reevaluate existing policies and consider the adoption of new ones is exhibited by numerous facts and developments. For example, Governor Newsom's stay-at-home, state emergency, and WARN Act directives contain numerous statements that should influence how employers conduct business and structure their workplaces.
As an illustration, Executive Order N-62-20 (May 6, 2020) stimulates thinking about policies. On its face, the Executive Order states that any COVID-19 illness of an employee is presumed to arise out of and in the course of employment for purposes of awarding workers' compensation benefits if specified conditions are met. In support of this new and extremely significant presumption, the Order states that "employees who report to their places of employment are often exposed to an increased risk of contracting COVID-19, which may require medical treatment, including hospitalization." Remarkably, no distinctions are made based on an employee's work setting, work environment, industry, position, or job duties. The order also states that "employees who report to work while sick increase health and safety risks for themselves, their fellow employees, and others with whom they come into contact."
b. Addressing Health And Safety Issues
Read in tandem with the CDC's, EEOC's and DFEH's guidance, employers can and arguably should disclose such risks to employees who reenter the workplace. Many employers will also desire to address health and safety issues, impose self-reporting obligations and screen employees before they return in a manner that adheres to CDC and other agency guidance. The EEOC and DFEH, for instance, allow temperature checks and sending employees home is they are sick when they report for work or become sick at work. The objective is to stop the spread.
Practitioners should give special attention to safety policies, such as policies that express a commitment to the health and safety of employees, customers and communities. Policies can require cooperation by employees, including social distancing, handwashing, and proper hygiene. Employers who choose to engage in temperature checks, testing, and inquiries regarding employee absences should articulate their rules and protocols in new policies. Some may choose to ask employees to acknowledge such policies and some may go further and ask employees to self-report COVID-19 symptoms, e.g., fever, coughing and shortness of breath, or attest each day that they have no symptoms.
Consistent with the premises stated in Executive Order N-62-20, employers may wish to advise employees of the risks of contracting COVID-19 in any workplace, their infection control policies, and policies designed to prevent crowding and require physical distancing at time clocks, entrances, elevators, escalators, parking facilities, locker areas, employee lounges and cafeterias.
c. Wage And Hour Policies
Employers face ongoing wage-hour issues in dealing with the consequences of the pandemic. The ever-present fear of wage-hour lawsuits, including the overwhelming concern about the penalty structure created by the Private Attorneys General Act ("PAGA"), will certainly be a deterrent to some experiments that are designed to make workplaces safer and more employee-friendly. Yet, employers will likely wish to reserve the right to modify and stagger work schedules to help achieve their safety objectives.
Employers that allow or assign employees to telework from home have a variety of other policies to consider. It is important that employers reimburse employees for business expenses that they necessarily incur based on Labor Code section 2802. They must also direct hourly employees to accurately record all work time and take meal and rest periods. Their policies should address the use of vacation, PTO and paid sick leave in full or partial day increments. Many employers may wish to reserve the right to require the use of vacation and PTO.
Certainly, any new or revised policies should comport with the guidance issued by the CDC and state and local public health authorities. It should also reflect the standards announced by state and federal enforcement agencies, including the EEOC, the DFEH, U.S. Department of Labor, Federal and Cal-OSHA, and the Department of Industrial Relations, Labor Commissioner and the Labor and Workforce Development Agency.
Detailed information on these topics is set out in the 15 substantive chapters of the Employer's Guide To COVID-19 And Emerging Workplace Issues, by Richard J. Simmons, Brian Murphy, Adam Rosenthal, and attorneys at Sheppard Mullin.


Long ago, volleyball used to be a quiet sport in the Philippines, in a country who patronizes Basketball and Boxing as main focus constantly eyeing to win in international competitions and in Olympics. We had Smart Gilas Team Pilipinas that got it big on FIBA and the Philippine AZKALS Football Team that rocked Asia and made Filipinos proud. Now, Volleyball is rapidly winning each of our hearts. Let us give credits to the fantastic and highly talented collegiate players of UAAP (University Athletic Association of the Philippines) and NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association of the Philippines) and the experienced and very skillful players of Shakey's V-League. From these athletic groups, our very own Volleyball National Teams: Amihan Women's Volleyball Team and Bagwis Men's Volleyball Team are now in spotlight as Filipinos were now embracing the sport in tighter grips than before. To add, the line-ups of the players are more promising that we could pray and hope for a brighter future for Philippine Volleyball for these national teams to achieve greater heights and make us more proud in competing internationally.
Last February 22, 2015, PLDT Ultera spearheaded their first stop in the series of events that aims to bring the sport closer to the Filipino masses for them to meet their National Team idols in person and also to the players to express their gratitude on the continuous support and bringing them where they are today. Through this event, the Filipinos especially the youth would be inspired to play and appreciate Volleyball more. With happy hearts and warm welcome they played and interacted with the very humble players they admire and love.
This first leg was held in General Trias, Cavite at 9am and the venue was in General Trias Sports Complex after a motorcade attended by popular Volleyball Players like Jen Reyes, Aiza Maizo and Peter Torres followed by drills and learning the basics of volleyball as taught by star members of the team. There was also a game between the two teams and the Gen. Trias citizens and the sought after meet and greet where smiles surrounded the place as they had this chance of meeting their favorite players in person.
Present in the event were the star studded members of both Men's and Women's National Volleyball Teams (Amihan and Bagwis) who shared their time and effort to impart some of their knowledge and inspiring talk. To mention a few, what gave people so much bliss were the presence of the icons of Philippine Volleyball today namely Rachel Daquiz, Jovelyn Gonzaga, Mary Balse, Dindin Santiago, from the MVT Peter Torres, Howard Mojica and Mark Alfafara, and the very famous star collegiate players of the UAAP today: AdMU's Alyssa Valdez and Denden Lazaro as well as DSLU's power trio Victonara Galang, Mika Reyes and Kim Fajardo. I love those pictures when these five girls were bonded together like a barkada amidst the very intense rivalry of their schools in the court.

L-Carnitine is important for providing energy to muscles, and has been described as a "conditionally essential" nutrient for humans. 95% of all carnitine stores in the body are found in muscle tissue. It carries fatty acids into the mitochondria of each cell, where they are oxidized and stored as ATP, the body's prime energy fuel.

LIVE AT THE RAINBOW
Please select elementTHE ALBUMTHE SONGSSINGLESTOUR DATESCOVERSBOOTLEGSPRESSINGSLYRICSLIVE AT THE RAINBOWOTHERSARTWORK
Released :27 October 1980
1. Women In Uniform (Macainsh)
2. Invasion (Harris)
3. Phantom Of The Opera (live) (Harris)
Women In Uniform was Iron Maiden's third single. It is also the only single in Maiden history that is actually a cover song, and the last with guitarist Dennis Stratton. The single also features another great Derek Riggs sleeve, where a resurrected Margaret Thatcher waits in ambush for Eddie and his girlfriends. The question is, what is Margaret's motive, revenge or jealousy? In any case, the single made it to 35 on the U.K. charts.
Rod Smallwood's comments are taken from the Best Of The B'Sides album booklet included in the Eddie's Archive box..
Women In Uniform (Macainsh)
Skyhooks single Skyhooks album This cover song was originally recorded by an Australian band called Skyhooks in 1979. The original song had a little spoken intro that Maiden didn't use. The intro went as follows:
Hello there sailor
Hi there Lili Marlene
Good morning school girls
It is a rather shallow little womanising song that does not match Maiden's style and, against their better judgement, the band was convinced by their publishers (Zomba) to release it as a single in the hopes of generating a hit a decision that the band has regretted ever since. 'Women In Uniform' also became the band's first video, a live production on stage at the Rainbow..
Invasion (Harris)
'Invasion' is another of Harris's early compositions and was first recorded on the legendary Soundhouse Tapes. It is a great song about a Viking invasion, which later evolved into 'Invaders' on the Number Of The Beast album. In contrast to the relatively lame 'Women In Uniform', 'Invasion' is an excellent song with a great guitar solo and a catchy tune that can stick in your head for days. It definitely should have been the A-side of the single. This is a faster re-recording of the original Soundhouse version, but it's difficult to tell which version is better.
One of Steve's earlier songs a new recording of a track on the 'Sound House Tapes'. I believe it is about the Viking invasion, one of Steve's earliest songs relating to history.
Phantom Of The Opera (live) (Harris)
This live version of the classic 'Phantom Of The Opera' was recorded at the Marquee Club in London on 4th July 1980. It is predictably excellent there probably isn't any version of 'Phantom' that isn't excellent. What can we say, this is one of Maiden's all-time greatest songs.


The Colormap (Indexed Palette is a better name) dialog allows you to edit the colormap of an indexed image. (If the mode of the active image is RGB or Grayscale instead of Indexed, the dialog is empty and unusable.) This is a dockable dialog; see the section on Dialogs and Docking for help on manipulating it.
The "Colormap" dialog is a dockable dialog; see the section Paragraaf 2.3, "Koppelen van dialoogvensters" for help on manipulating it.
from the Tab menu in any dockable dialog by clicking on and selecting Add Tab → Colormap.
In the Windows menu, there is a list of detached windows which exists only if at least one dialog remains open. In this case, you can raise the "Colormap" dialog from the image-menu: Windows → Colormap.
In an Indexed image, instead of being assigned a color directly (as happens in RGB and Grayscale images), colors are assigned to pixels by an indirect method, using a look-up table called a colormap.
To determine the color that should be shown for that pixel, GIMP looks up the index in the image's colormap. Each indexed image has its own private colormap. In GIMP, the maximum number of entries in a colormap is 256. For a maximum-sized colormap, each index from 0 to 255 is assigned an arbitrary RGB color. There are no rules restricting the colors that can be assigned to an index or the order they appear in: any index can be assigned any color.
It is important to realize that the colors in the colormap are the only colors available for an indexed image (that is, unless you add new colors to the colormap). This has a major effect on many GIMP operations: for example, in a pattern fill, GIMP will usually not be able to find exactly the right colors in the colormap, so it will approximate them by using the nearest color available. This is sometimes referred to as Quantization. If the colormap is too limited or poorly chosen, this can easily produce very poor image quality.
The Colormap dialog allows you to alter the colormap for an image, either by creating new entries, or by changing the colors for the existing entries. If you change the color associated with a given index, you will see the changes reflected throughout the image, as a color shift for all pixels that are assigned that index. The entries are numbered with 0 in the upper left corner, 1 to its right, etc.
This sets GIMP's foreground color to the color you click on, as shown in the Toolbox color area. As a result, this color will be used for the next painting operation you do.
This sets GIMP's background color to the color you Ctrl-click on, as shown in the Toolbox color area.
This sets GIMP's foreground color to the color you click on, and also brings up a Color Editor that allows you to change that colormap entry to a new color.
You can select a different colormap entry by typing its index here, or clicking the spinbutton to the right.
This button (in the lower left corner of the dialog) brings up a Color Editor that allows you to change the color for the currently selected colormap entry. The effect is similar to double-clicking on the entry, except that it does not set GIMP's foreground color.
If you make a mistake, you can undo it by focusing the pointer in the image whose colormap you have changed, and then pressing Ctrl+Z or choosing Edit → Undo in the image menu.
This dialog provides the most commonly used methods for altering the colormap for an indexed image. The color tools, such as Brightness/Contrast, Hue/Saturation, etc, do not operate on indexed images. There are a few plug-ins that do so, including the "Normalize", "VColor Enhance", and "Stretch Contrast" operations, and it is possible to create others as well.
If you paint an indexed image with a color which is not in the Colormap, GIMP will use the most similar color of the Colormap.
This command opens a color selector which allows you to modify the color.
This command is enabled only if the indexed palette contains less than 256 colors. The background color of the Toolbox is appended to the color map.
This command is enabled only if the indexed palette contains less than 256 colors. The background color of the Toolbox is appended to the color list.
Rearrange Colormap: This command is described in Paragraaf 8.34, "Rearrange Colormap".
