How Elon Musk & Tesla taking over on world's energy needs
Home/Branding, Innovation/How Elon Musk & Tesla taking over on world's energy needs
This year Elon Musk's Tesla acquired SolarCity which builds & installs solar panels on homes. Now Tesla is a one-stop-shop for all energy solutions, from electric cars to solar homes and power walls…
Tesla is already a threat for other giant car companies like Ford, BMW, Audi and others. But after acquiring the SolarCity, it became more powerful and the company changed its mission from electric car company to a full energy company by changing its name from Tesla Motors to Tesla.

Model S was a huge success, continually building new models and becoming more efficient by time. Now the main focus of Tesla is driverless cars. Tesla has already tested out its auto pilot 2.0 and the company claims that it's 100 times more efficient than a good human driver. And the company is continually improving it's efficiency.
Tesla promised to have driverless cars on roads by the end of 2018. The main feature of driverless cars is that they won't just sit in the parking lines, but earn some extra bucks for you by accepting paid gigs (just like Uber) automatically. That's the beauty of driverless cars.
World's largest lithium-ion battery storage project in South Australia
Elon Musk has thrown down a challenge to the South Australian and federal governments this March, saying he can solve the state's energy woes within 100 days – or he'll deliver the 100MW battery storage system for free.
Tesla will get the system installed and working 100 days from contract signature or it is free. That serious enough for you?
Now the company has already started its work to install the world's largest lithium-ion battery storage project in South Australia.
Negotiations with China
Musk is already in a conversation with China to build a second largest GigaFactory 2 in China. That would be bigger than the Tesla GigaFactory 1 in Nevada.

Elon Musk says 2 or 3 more Tesla Gigafactories are coming to the US
Did you ever wonder why Elon Musk is so interested to send human on Mars?
The answer is pretty much a science fiction. Of course he has a vision behind the idea that he's never shared with other people.

His moves towards the Word's Energy needs for past couple of years, I suspect he's after something bigger than that. And that's Energy.
Energy is power, the governments are going to shut down oil usage within few decades completely. Because of environmental catastrophes such as Climate Change threats to our planet. So he knows that more alternative resources one can build in that interim would have more power and can control the world.
Now that you see Tesla is everywhere, here is the list of its products.

Traces of the South's most genre-bursting, P-Funk-worshipping ATLiens can be heard all over C3, from Wayne's staccato phrasing on "Mr. Carter" to the extraterrestrial fetishism of "Phone Home" to the eclectic unpredictability of it all.
I just like the respect given to the South.

Snogwritts
"Snogs" "Tiny colt" "Snoggy"

Dudman
Uploads fanfic readings every Saturday.
"Hello everypony, I'm Snogwritts! I'm just a young colt with big dreams!" - Snogwritts
Snogwritts (commonly referred to as Snogs) is a young blue unicorn colt who centers in the areas of my little pony fanfic narrations and reviews. His cheerful yet formal personality brings some uniqueness to his voice which many of his fans known him for. Many perceive Snogwritts as an intellectual and talented young colt, while others think he's the storyteller to come to. He quite a lot of hobbies that he's talented in, as he describes that creating is his, "soul." However, on Youtube, he's primarily a narrator who reads fanfics for the fun of it.
Brony Life
Snogwritts discovered the fandom while coming across many mlp fanworks on Miiverse and Tumblr. His only passion at the time was art and previously being part of the Kirby fandom. Since curiosity was the reason why he looked into the first episode, he soon got interested in the fandom.
According to his recent special, Snogwritts started his channel to improve his talents and meet new ponies. This was commonly his goal across all his videos thus far.
However, he has been teased for being a brony in the past, especially when his peers found out. As of the making of this article, Snogwritts recently joined the fandom and has been a brony for 2 years.
The Equestrian Tales
This is the main series on his channel where he narrates fanfics from a variety of genres. Making a debut back in February 14th, 2016 with the first fanfic being, "Twilight hears the narrator."
During his development, Snogwritts wanted his traits to be represented through his OC. Originally, the little blue colt design used to be a stallion and had a way different cutiemark. In fact, his talents at first had nothing to do with storytelling at all. Instead, it was more of the music/art area.
However, this soon changed when he realized that he wouldn't be necessarily a, "kid," if he was a stallion. Therefore, Snogwritts made a complete redesign.
As a result, the final design came to be a little blue colt with a brown sweater. Snogwritts had his favorite colors in mind that'll blend in with the color scheme. Thus, in regardence with his cutie mark, he made sure the character had a quill to bring some of those elements.
Rewritten
This is a series where Snogwritts reviews a fanfic he has narrated and gives critiques on the story as a whole. His reviews has been well received by authors of those fanfics and he'll continue to create more. The series debuted on July 4th, 2016. A trailer has been made before the debut.
So far there are only 10 videos on the series. Snogwritts has stated he won't do any more videos for the series.
Vector Changes
Snogwritts announced on June 23rd, 2018 that he'll be remaking his vectors. He has posted his first one on Deviantart and supposedly more will come as he gets them done.
There have been changes from his old vectors compared to before. He is now taller, has a longer neck, has bandages on his face and legs. Demonstrating that himself, including his OC, is growing up.
Old Vectors as of June 23rd, 2018.
His cutie mark also got a remake. As of 2018, Snogwritts is currently using the new vectors he made.

Backstory: The Controversial Names
Snogwritts is part of the new generation of ponies and born into the future (Present) after the new regeneration of Equestria. He continues to understand the world around him and strive to improve in any way on his talents.
However, he wasn't always like this…
Snogwritts was born in Manehattan. Housed and cared for by his parents, his father being a hard working earth pony, and his mother being a maid. He strongly dislikes being called Dudman because of the past that ties with that name.
Dudman was a mean, apathetic, savage inducing colt who lived in a very bad neighborhood. Always getting fights at school, being diagnosed with OCD, being an overall unfriendly pony who didn't want attention in the slightest. His mother didn't do anything about it, he was too rebellious to be disciplined.
That was until he moved to Ponyville. After a recent finding of a rare stone, it changed everything. Dudman changed, Vamponies became extinct, his journal he wrote during those events titled, "Colt Dudman Vs. Ponyville," explains his journey in great detail. However… he doesn't choose to release that info anytime soon, despite it being the reason why he has a cutie mark.
It is also rumored to be the reason why his father died.
After those events, he changed the way he thought about friendship, even make claims that it never existed in the past. Dudman wanted to make a new name for himself, a name that'll make him forget about his past and better himself for the present. He called himself, "Snogwritts."
Princess Twilight Sparkle opened up for snog. She knew he was a lost colt surrounded by friendly faces he wasn't used too. He needed help, he needed some pony to look up too, he needed to feel loved…
She knew of all colts and fillies snog had potential to be a great student if he wanted too. Celestia saw a light that snog hasn't shined yet, but she knew snog could help spread friendship across Equestria. A representative of the younger generation.
An official meeting was held at the Equestrian Courts on January 1st, 2016. They had to make an agreement what to do with the little colt. His mother was missing and was no place to take care of her child. Snogwritts was given two choices, he can either go to a foster home and continue to go to Cheerilees school, or he could join Twilight Sparkle as a reformed student to learn about friendship.
After a long decision, Snogwritts chose to be a student of Twilight. The Equestrian High Council decided to fund Snogwritts education, needs, and health care. He was given his own personal library to live in and now studies at Celestias Magic School For Gifted Unicorns. Twilight Sparkle was officially Snogwritts mentor.
Today, Snogwritts is living happily in Ponyville and his mother was released from the hospital. He continues to study magic and friendship with the assistance of his mentor. He now runs a youtube channel where he embraces his talents.
He calls himself today, "just a young colt with big dreams."
Snogwritts is the youngest youtuber in the fandom.
Snogwritts name was created after the British word, "Snog," and the suffix was inspired from the word, "scripts."
Snogwritts is the youngest member in the Rift Cafe.
Snogwritts is known for being a, "jack of all trades." He can draw, voice act, edit, narrate, write, and animate which is the reason why he hasn't done many collaborations compared to other channels.
Snogwritts catch phrase is, "nifty."
Snogwritts can speak three languages. English, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese.
Snogwritts used to have the world record for highest score in, "Ms. Pacman and Galaga Class Of 1981."In the 1981 arcade game,"Galaga" (Rapid Fire Mode).
Twilight Sparkle is Snogwritts mentor.
Snogwritts also has a second channel. Named, "Snogwritts Plus."
In a relationship with Heartpaw Phoenix.

Data driven streaming applications are quite common in modern multimedia and wireless applications, like for example video and audio processing. The main components of these applications are Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms. These algorithms are not extremely complex in terms of their structure and the operations that make up the algorithms are fairly simple (usually binary mathematical operations like addition and multiplication). What makes it challenging to implement and execute these algorithms efficiently is their large degree of fine-grained parallelism and the required throughput. DSP algorithms can usually be described as dataflow graphs with nodes corresponding to operations and edges between the nodes expressing data dependencies. A node fires, i.e. executes, as soon as all required input data has arrived at its input edge(s). To execute DSP algorithms efficiently while maintaining flexibility, coarse-grained reconfigurable arrays (CGRAs) can be used. CGRAs are composed of a set of small, reconfigurable cores, interconnected in e.g. a two dimensional array. Each core by itself is not very powerful, yet the complete array of cores forms an efficient architecture with a high throughput due to its ability to efficiently execute operations in parallel. In this thesis, we present a CGRA targeted at data driven streaming DSP applications that contain a large degree of fine grained parallelism, such as matrix manipulations or filter algorithms. Along with the architecture, also a programming language is presented that can directly describe DSP applications as dataflow graphs which are then automatically mapped and executed on the architecture. In contrast to previously published work on CGRAs, the guiding principle and inspiration for the presented CGRA and its corresponding programming paradigm is the dataflow principle. The result of this work is a completely integrated framework targeted at streaming DSP algorithms, consisting of a CGRA, a programming language and a compiler. The complete system is based on dataflow principles. We conclude that by using an architecture that is based on dataflow principles and a corresponding programming paradigm that can directly express dataflow graphs, DSP algorithms can be implemented in a very intuitive and straightforward manner.

Q: Disable all Mage_CatalogInventory features We don't use any feature of Mage_CatalogInventory and I disabled some of it in the system configuration, but there are still a lot MySQL Queries especially in the checkout, which took very long.
My first thought was to disable the Module, but the following core Modules depends on CatalogInventory: Mage_Checkout, Mage_Rss, Mage_XmlConnect.
My second thought was to disable all Observer, but I'am not sure if there are some correlation in the core, because the Module have 21 observed events.
Has anyone ever disable CatalogInventory and/or could share there experience?
//edit 1
I removed the <event> node from CatalogInventory to test it. The Message Not in stock appears. It looks like isSaleable returns false. Even if I hardcoded a return true; in isSaleable it didn't work.

There are just a couple blocks in the frontend which didn't need a lot of ressources. There is a block for the qty limitation and inventory message. I disabled the output but can't measure a difference.
Here is my configuration. I tried to disable everything. Is there something I missed?

A: @Pawel some of dependencies you mention are fake ones. For example, Mage_Checkout and Mage_XmlConnect modules don't use any logic from Mage_CatalogInventory module. Mage_Rss uses only one class constant from the inventory module.
You may try with Zookal Mock module. It removes fake dependency definitions and provides mocks for some classes. One of these mocks is Mage_CatalogInventory_Model_Stock_Item, class which is used in many places.
I've used that module in two projects and it helped me to disable a few modules. I didn't need to disable inventory one, but after looking into code I think it may work.
https://github.com/Zookal/magento-mock

A: The only thing you can disable via system config is block output and layout XML for that given module.
Set the module's activation flag to false.

Інтерне́т-осві́та () — освіта, що здійснюється з використанням ресурсів та технологій глобальної мережі Інтернет. У відношенні до поняття дистанційна освіта є видовою відмінністю, більш суворо регламентує техніко-технологічну специфіку навчання — використання мережі Інтернет (дистанційно можна навчатися не тільки через Інтернет, але і за допомогою локальних мереж, відеозв'язку тощо)
Більшість діючих центрів навчання можна умовно розділити на три групи за ступенем «занурення» в Інтернет.

До першої групи належать заклади, вся робота яких будується виключно на Інтернет-технологіях. Вибір навчального курсу, його оплата, заняття зі студентами, передача контрольних завдань та їх перевірка, а також здача проміжних і фінальних іспитів здійснюються через Мережу. Подібних навчальних центрів, іноді іменованих «віртуальними університетами», не так багато через високі вимоги до апаратно-програмного оснащення і рівень підготовки персоналу, а також необхідність значних початкових фінансових вкладень.

Другу, найчисленнішу групу, складають навчальні заклади, що поєднують різні традиційні форми очного і дистанційного навчання з нововведеннями в дусі часу. Наприклад, деякі вузи частину своїх програмних курсів переводять у віртуальну форму, а центри дистанційного навчання, спираючись на Інтернет-технології, у той же час не відмовляються від практики проведення очних екзаменаційних сесій. Варіантів тут може бути багато, але в кожному випадку комп'ютеризована лише частина навчального процесу.

До третьої групи можна віднести навчальні центри, для яких Інтернет служить лише внутрішнім комунікаційним середовищем. На своїх сайтах вони розміщують інформацію про навчальні програми (плани), семінари, а також бібліотечні каталоги.

Пропоновані в системах віртуального навчання курси прийнято ділити на два види: кредитні та некредитні. «Кредитним» вважається курс, офіційно затверджений в акредитованому навчальному закладі. Він зараховується студентові в рамках навчальної програми з якої-небудь спеціальності і є однією із сходинок на шляху до отримання наукового ступеня. (Кожний курс у кредитній ієрархії має свою вагу.) До «Некредитних» відносять курси, призначені для отримання додаткової або постуніверситетської освіти (наприклад з метою підвищення кваліфікації) і які не ведуть до отримання наукового ступеня.

Навчальні заклади, що пропонують некредитні курси, фактично утворюють систему «відкритої освіти». Вони роблять акцент на цінності навчальної програми як такої, не піклуючись про престижність видаваного диплома або вазі кредиту. У рамках відкритої освіти створені тисячі навчальних курсів з різноманітних тем, включаючи освоєння мов і вдосконалення навичок роботи з комп'ютером. В Інтернеті можна знайти й такі навчальні заклади, які пропонують пройти навчання за повною програмою коледжу, але не надають освітнього кредиту.

Інтернет освіта в Україні
Українська платформа онлайн-курсів Prometheus у 2017 році разом з Національний технічний університет України "Київський політехнічний інститут імені Ігоря Сікорського", Національний університет "Львівська політехніка" та Львівський національний університет імені Івана Франка розпочала пілотний проект зі змішаним типом навчання.

Основна ідея в тому, що студенти будуть онлайн переглядати курси кращих світових університетів, а викладачі в університетах будуть приділяти більшу роль індивідуальній роботі, застосуванню та контролю знань.

Після пілотного проекту Prometheus у 2017 планує прийнятись до реформи української освіти з використанням змішаної освіти.

У 2006 р. за ініціативи та сприяння Міністерства освіти і науки України було започатковано проект «Міжнародна українська школа» для того, щоб забезпечити право на освіту дітям громадян та громадянам України, що тимчасово чи постійно проживають за кордоном, і вже 7 березня 2007 розпорядженням Кабінету Міністрів України «Про утворення загальноосвітнього навчального закладу "Міжнародна українська школа"» було прийняте рішення про створення школи та затверджено її статут і штатний розпис. 7 липня 2007 неказом Міністерства освіти і науки України «Про створення загальноосвітнього навчального закладу "Міжнародна українська школа"» було створено Міжнародну українську школу. Школа розпочала свою роботу 1 вересня 2007 р.

Crooked-River-Ranch has changed hands several times since it's beginnings in 1910 when a Texas oilman named Gates purchased the land. In 1971, it was turned into a recreational site when it was purchased by a family named MacPherson, and then was rezoned in the early 80s as rural residential. Crooked River Ranch has a population today of approximately 4,000, and it is steadily growing. Located in central Oregon, 12 miles northwest of Redmond in Jefferson County, Crooked River Ranch is in the heart of Oregon's four-season playground. The ranch itself has approximately 12,000 acres including a golf course, tennis courts, ball field, swimming pool and clubhouse. There are also several tracts of open land that is administered by the Department of the Interior and is available for hiking, fishing, riding and hunting. The nearby Deschutes and Crooked Rivers, with their deep gorges and cool, clear water offer more opportunities for fishing, boating and hiking. And, several lakes and reservoirs in the region are great for swimming, picnicking, fishing and water skiing. The Cascade Mountains, near Crooked River Ranch, offer rock climbing and hiking and in wintertime, snow skiing and other winter sports at Mt. Bachelor.
The closest airports in the area are Roberts Field (RDM) located about 12 miles south of Crooked River Ranch in Redmond, Oregon, the City County airport (S33) located approximately 17 miles north of Crooked River Ranch in Madras, Oregon, the Prineville airport (S39) located roughly 19 miles southeast of Crooked River Ranch in Prineville, Oregon, and finally the Bend Municipal airport (S07) located around 22 miles south of Crooked River Ranch in Bend, Oregon.

Which player had best sneakers of 2019 NBA conference semifinals?
By Nick DePaula
In many ways, the stage for Game 6 in Houston was set for the Golden State Warriors to hearken back to the starting points of their "Strength In Numbers" mantra-led run.
Not only was Andrew Bogut back in the starting lineup, but without Kevin Durant on hand, the all-hands-on-deck approach was needed more than ever to end theHouston Rockets' season for a second year in a row.
"It definitely was a little throwback for us, for sure,"Draymond Greensaid.
As the Warriors heard "a lot of noise" leading up to the potential close-out game in Houston, Stephen Curry took note of the narrative forming, that they'd be unable to advance without Durant as Curry was undeniably struggling throughout the series.
"I know what I'm capable of," he said. "I don't need any extra motivation. My confidence never wavers."
Even so, Curry decidedly looked to turn back the clock in advance of Game 6, digging through his sneaker stash and packing a 4-year-old pair of his very first Under Armour signature shoe, the Curry 1, for the trip.
In a cupcake sprinkles-themed "Birthday" colorway no less, he not only wore the shoes on his 27th birthday four seasons ago, but also during the 2015 NBA Finals -- the Warriors' only Finals win before Durant joined their dynastic run. He tallied a series-high 37 points during that momentum-shifting Game 5 win in the shoes.
"I wanted to lean into it," he said. "Obviously, without K, we've had a certain look and dynamic. I felt good in those shoes once upon a time, so I wanted to bring 'em back."
A higher cut than his current low-top Curry 6 sneaker, the Curry 1 also represented the initial apex of his career, when he racked up a flood of accomplishments in the model throughout the 2014-15 season. In addition to his first MVP award and first championship, Curry had once again advanced the mark for the league's 3-point field goal record, and led the league in All-Star votes for the first time, dethroning LeBron James.
The Curry 1 was instantly the fastest-selling Under Armour shoe in the company's history. His agent, Jeff Austin, renegotiated his initial five-year endorsement deal with the brand in the months after the 2015 Finals, locking in an exponentially more lucrative deal through 2024.
With all of his personal history in the shoe set to fuel him as Game 6 tipped off Friday evening, he went scoreless throughout the first half.
"I was pretty terrible," he said with a sigh.
The second half told a different story, as he poured in 33 points during the game's most pivotal moments.
"My family knows I'm real superstitious at times," Curry said. "If I have a bad half, most of the time, I might change shoes at halftime. I did feel like I gave myself an opportunity to prove that it was the right call to bring those out of the garage. It obviously worked out. Nice little flash from the past -- moving on to the next round."
The throwback shoes and throwback spirit of his game spoke to a larger theme of Curry's throughout the season, the team's last of a 47-year chapter in Oakland before next season's move to San Francisco. He has looked to highlight former Warriors greats with a variety of throwback jerseys for his arena entry outfits, and has celebrated a "10 In The Town" storyline at his downtown Oakland-based pop-up store with Under Armour for his decade with the franchise.
According to those close to him, Curry has recently been digging deep through his rows and rows of black Under Armour boxes, looking for additional pairs of his first sneaker to break out, reminding him of the biggest moments from his first MVP season.
"I love the pressure of trying to stay on top and using the confidence that becoming the MVP meant," he said.
While Damian Lillard has a different approach to pressure, the Oakland native will be looking forward to his lofty shot at the reigning champs, as he's helped to carry the Portland Trail Blazers to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since 2000.]
After a flurry of instant classic moments in the opening round of the playoffs,Damian Lillard's biggest game of the second round came just before Mother's Day, as he paid tribute to his mother, Gina, with a special edition pair of his latest Adidas sneakers during the Blazers' Game 6 win at home.
With the league's loosened color rules this season, Lillard looked to shake free of the team's tame black and red hues atop his shoes.
"I was excited about it," he said. "Being limited with the colors, I wasn't always able to wear [certain shoes] in a national TV game. [Adidas] would say, 'Well, do your pregame warm-up in this shoe, they'll take pictures of it and we'll post it.' Now, it's like, you really get in front of that audience."
That new approach changed Lillard's entire outlook on planning his sneakers for the season.
"Now, if I want to wear a mint green shoe because it represents my mother's favorite color, and it might be someone else's mother's favorite color or a kid's favorite color and they want something loud, well now I'm wearing it on TV," he said. "It allows you to tell those stories and use whatever colors you want."
A mainstay at Blazers games, Lillard's outgoing mom is also often clad In Adidas tracksuits and her son's latest signature sneaker. Creating a new colorway in her honor was one of Lillard's first ideas for his fifth shoe. Last month, she debuted the shoe during an arena entry alongside her son.
"My mom always wants something to represent her. She ain't shy," he said with a laugh.
As he has risen through the ranks of the league during his seven-year career, perhaps never higher than after his opening-round, series-clinching shot to send the Oklahoma City Thunder home, that hasn't stopped his mom from fully claiming the new "Suga Gee" sneaker as her own.
"In Oakland, my mom is one of the most popular people out there," he jokes. "When people look at it, they're not going to look at it like, 'Oh, this is her son's shoe that he kind of dedicated to her.' They gonna be like, 'Gina got a shoe!' And she's gonna say, 'Yeah! That's my shoe.' It's pretty cool that she can have that moment."
After also wearing the Dame 5 model for most of the season, Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray wouldn't dare wear Lillard's signature shoe against the Blazers, opting instead for a rotation of recent Adidas releases during the series.
Part of the brand's extensive "Heroes Among Us" collaborative pack with Marvel Comics, Murray donned the Nick Fury-themed colorway of Tracy McGrady's first Adidas sneaker, the TMac 1. With black patent leather and metallic silver accents throughout, the launch lined up with the comic franchise's recent "Avengers: Endgame" release, pairing the brand's players with superheroes from among the many Marvel series.
Elsewhere,Boston Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving had his own theatrical-themed sneaker, as his new Kyrie 5 model was styled in a black, yellow, red and blue colorway inspired by the 1990's TV show "Friends." During the 2015 NBA Finals, reporters noticed new ink along Irving's left wrist featuring the show's recognizable lettering.
"I mean what can I say lol I'm a fan of the show," Irving hilariously and plainly captioned on Instagram after the tattoo initially went viral.
The shoe has been in the works for years since, an official collaboration with the NBC network that incorporated the "Friends" lettering along the left heel tab, and a similarly styled K.Y.R.I.E. font type along the right shoe.
Philadelphia 76ers small forward Jimmy Butler had his own surprise prior pair in store for the playoffs, this one carrying more added meaning than his usual rotation of Air Jordan exclusives. Originally styled in bright pink for Breast Health Awareness Month, Butler's Air Jordan 32 Low from a season ago featured an added handwritten inscription in support of former Minnesota Timberwolves teammateTyus Jones' mother's ongoing bout with breast cancer.
"WE FIGHTING MAMA JONES," Butler wrote, along with a heart.
Though there isn't exactly a formal voting process in store for the 2018-19 "NBA Sneaker King," there's no disputing Houston power forwardPJ Tucker's footwear reign on yet another season, all of which means little to the 34-year-old who simply takes a childlike approach to his love for kicks.
"I never really cared, and I never wanted to be a champion of sneakers. I don't even know what that is," he said with a laugh. "Honestly, it's just something that's pretty cool to be thought of as."
Throughout Houston's second-round battle against Golden State, Tucker donned a variety of vintage and upcoming Nike Kobe 4 colorways, along with a batch of impossibly rare retro Jordans.
His longtime Nike endorsement deal is set to expire in October, meaning Tucker could re-sign and seek out more rare Swoosh heat, or surprise next season with a new brand's rotation in store.

Tree planters set out for work in the Cariboo region. (Williams Lake Tribune)
Tree planters get help with COVID-19 protective measures
Ottawa funds extra transportation, sanitizing for crews
Tom Fletcher
Jul. 13, 2020 10:40 a.m.
With an estimated 7,000 people planting trees across Canada, the federal government has committed up to $30 million in emergency funding to help contractors cover the extra costs of COVID-19 protection.
The funds are aimed at keeping the Justin Trudeau government's reforestation commitment to plant 600 million trees on schedule, covering costs such as sanitizing stations, additional accommodation and transportation space and personal protective equipment, Natural Resources Canada said in a statement.
B.C.'s annual program had more than 300 million of those seedlings scheduled to be planted in 10 weeks this summer, but the start was delayed to develop coronavirus pandemic plans. It got underway in May.
Measures ordered for industrial camps include spaced seating in trucks and buses, and physical spacing measures for camps.
"Faced with the challenges of both maintaining the manufacturing of essential products and ensuring seedlings are planted on schedule amid COVID-19, federal, provincial and territorial governments, together with industry, work collaboratively to quickly put in place measures to protect workers and communities," the statement said. "The government intends to work with the provinces and territories to deliver this funding, which will preserve jobs for forest sector workers, including approximately 7,000 tree planters this year."
In April, B.C.'s chief forester requested that any tree planting in B.C. that hadn't started be delayed until May. Contractors imposed two-week isolation for employees before they went out to work

The B.C. government is carrying on its program through the Forest Enhancement Society of B.C., including fire prevention by removing fire-killed trees for fuel pellet production. Among them is a $1.25 million grant to the Cheslatta Carrier Nation, to rehabilitate forest areas severely damaged by wildfires in 2018.
Work started in May on the south side of Francois Lake between Grassy Plains, Ootsa and Cheslatta Lakes, 65 km south of Burns Lake.
"The wildfires of 2018 burned 75 per cent of the Cheslatta Community Forest and even more overall on the territory," said Ben Wilson, forestry coordinator for the Cheslatta Carrier Nation.

A world of content
By Mei Jia | China Daily | Updated: 2019-11-08 08:46
A spread from The Spring in the North, a picture book based on the well-known Japanese song by the same name. The book has been published by Chinese publishing house Jieli.[Photo provided to China Daily]
Songs, poems and modern mythology are all part of a growing catalogue of literary cross-border collaborations between writers, illustrators and China's leading publishers, Mei Jia reports.
The Spring in the North-or Kitaguni no Haru in the original Japanese-is probably the most well-known Japanese song in China and around Asia since it first released in 1977.
"It's said that about 1.5 billion people across the world can sing that song," says lyricist Haku Ide, 78, the man who penned the song over 40 years ago.
He recently published a picture book based on the poetic images evoked in his song through a Chinese publisher along with his 39-year-old illustrator son, Shinji Ide.
Haku Ide says he hopes his sense of nostalgia will resonate with readers when they thumb through the pages of the book of the same name as his biggest hit, especially people like himself who abandoned their rural upbringing for the hustle and bustle of life in the big city.
He has written the lyrics for more than 400 songs, yet this is the first time he has had his work published as a picture book. Based on his own childhood experiences, the book captures and documents typical scenes from daily life in northern Japan some 60 years ago. From flying kites, feeding silkworm and harvesting paddy fields, to playing ice-hockey on homemade skates-the expectations of each coming season unfold with every turn of the page.
Haku Ide says his father died when he was in first grade in school, and his mother was forced to support the family on her own.
"I don't remember ever seeing her sleep, because she always had endless work to do," he says.
Even in winter months when farmers had less field work, he describes the young child's reluctance to rub his mother's back and shoulders to ease her sore muscles after long hours of household chores.

A Cambridge-based business which commercialises innovative technologies to accelerate and enable stem cell science has turned to Syndicate Room to help it raise up to £250,000.
Cell Guidance Systems has so far secured more than £150,000 from investors with a month still to go on its crowdfunding pitch.
The company has patented an innovative technology called Pods, which provides a solution to protein instability by encaging proteins within a crystal armour, protecting them right through to the moment when they are slowly released to their target.
It has described this as a "huge breakthrough" given that there are no similar technologies understood to be in existence or development.
Cell Guidance Systems' lead investor is Dr Steve Chambers. He is a founding partner of Adgen, which was sold to Nasdaq-listed Neogen Corporation in 2003. Chambers has remained there for 12 years, continuing to build the business into a leading supplier of food safety and security products.
He said: "Cell Guidance Systems' biggest strength is having a competent and complimentary management team being at the right place at the right time.
"A promising company always has more opportunities than it has the resource to deal with – which is the biggest problem Cell Guidance System has to face.
"In addition to their current successful sales program with their life science research tools, the Pods technology offers real opportunity, but they will need to pick partners carefully that will maximise value. I think they are aware of that and will need to analyse and turn down opportunities that do not offer the right effort/reward ratio. "
Guidance Systems, which counts AstraZeneca and Roche as customers, previously raised £242,800 on the equity crowdfunding platform Crowdcube in 2013.

Лазерната показалка (или писалка) представлява малко ръчно устройство, което съдържа източник на енергия (обикновено батерия) и лазерен диод. То излъчва тесен кохерентен лазерен лъч във видимата област с малка мощност. Предназначено е да осветява зони на интерес чрез малка ярка точка от светлина с определен цвят. Мощността в повечето държави е ограничена да не превишава 5 mW по причина, че дори и под тази мощност, лазерните показалки може да доведат до временни нарушения в зрението, ако попаднат в човешкото око.

Повреда на очите
Изходната мощност на лазерните писалки, достъпни за широката публика е ограничена с цел да се избегне случайна повреда на ретината на човешкото око. Здравеопазването в Обединеното кралство препоръчва достъпните за обществото лазерни показалки да бъдат с мощност, ограничена до по-малко от 1 миливат (1 mw), т.к. при такива мощности не са доказани трайни увреждания на ретината. В САЩ това ограничение е до 5 mW.

Изследванията показват, че дори лазерни лъчи с ниска мощност – не повече от 5 mw – могат да предизвикат трайно увреждане на ретината, ако попаднат в окото за няколко секунди, но вероятността за това се ограничава поради способността на човек да си затваря очите.

Има сведения, че лазерни показалки с по-висока от законно определената мощност, придобити чрез покупки през Интернет, са причинили трайно увреждане на ретината. .

Обикновените лазерни показалки имат мощност 1 – 5 mW и се отнасят към клас на опасност II – IIIА.

Лазерните показалки с мощност 50 – 300 mW се отнасят към клас III-B и са способни да причинят силни увреждания на ретината на окото не само при кратковременно попадане на пряк лазерен лъч, но и при попадане на огледално или дифузно отражение. Времето, необходимо за възникване на повреди в ретината при тези мощности е от порядъка на 0.1 сек, докато реакцията на клепача се извършва за около 0.25 сек. Тоест окото не е в състояние да се предпази от повреди на ретината. Причината е, че светлината от силно кохерентен източник се фокусира лесно в малка точка от лещата на окото.

Некоректно класиране по мощност
Тестове на Националния институт за стандартизация и технологии на САЩ , проведени през 2013 г. върху лазерни показалки, означени като клас IIIa или 3R показват, че около половината от тях излъчват мощност около 2 пъти по-висока от максималната за класа, което съответства на Клас IIIb – значително по-опасни. Най-високата измерена мощност е била 66.5 миливата – над 10 пъти над нормата !

Регулации и нарушения
От самото си създаване, лазерните показалки са обект на използване не по предназначение. Това е довело до създаването на закони и норми специално за тези случаи. Техният много голям обхват прави трудно откриването на източника на лазерното петно. В някои случаи това води до уплаха в потърпевшите, че са попаднали под прицел на оръжие. Много ярката, малка точка прави възможно разсейването и объркването на шофьорите и пилотите на самолети, като може да бъде опасно и за зрението им.

През януари 2005 г. гражданинът на Ню Джърси David Banach е арестуван за насочване на зелен лазер към малък самолет, летящ над него

През 2009 г. полицията в Обединеното Кралство започва следенето на източниците на лазери, насочвани към хеликоптери в нощен полет. Извършителите са заловени посредством проследяване с използване на GPS, свързан към термовизионна камера, позволяваща да се види заподозрения и дори горещата дръжка на лазерната писалка (в случай, че бъде хвърлена). В такъв случай се включват екипи с кучета. От 2010 г. наказанието може да бъде 5 години лишаване от свобода.

България и Европейски съюз
Повечето държави от Европейския съюз към момента са хармонизирали законодателството по отношение притежанието на клас 2 (под 1 mW мощност) показалки за представяне на презентации.

Всичко над 1 mW е нелегално за продажба в UK.

В ход е приемането на предложение от ЕК, което налага санкции относно продажбата на лазерни показалки, според които за продажба се разрешават само уреди, отговарящи на приетите стандарти за безопасност, т.е. под 5mW.

Австралия
В Нов Южен Уелс за "лазерно нападение" законодателството предвижда лишаване от свобода до 14 години.

The Gunners have lost their last two Premier League fixtures and conceded three goals on both occasions in a 3-2 loss vs Crystal Palace which was followed by a 3-1 defeat away to Wolves on Wednesday evening. Emery admitted during the week that his side need to rediscover their confidence ahead of the trip to the East Midlands.
Brendan Rodgers has been full of praise of the job Emery has done at Arsenal this campaign saying 'I think Unai's done an excellent job there with his team' yet he will be hopeful of causing an upset with 7th place still a possibility for the Foxes.
Head to Head: Arsenal have a rather favourable record against the Foxes and despite losing this fixture last campaign, this was not helped by a sending off during the first half which ultimately lead to the 3-1 loss. Before defeat last season, they had not lost to Leicester since 2000, only drawing four games in this time and winning nine. Arsenal won the reverse fixture back in October by the same scoreline of 3-1. Overall the Gunners have won 66 of the 140 games between the two sides with the Foxes coming out on top on 30 occasions.
Leicester City: Brendan Rodgers has no new injury concerns ahead of the trip of Arsenal with the only absentee being that of Daniel Amartey. Club captain, Wes Morgan is back in contention after missing out last time out due to personal reasons. The latter will likely take a place on the bench with Maguire and Evans being those selected in front of Kasper Schmeichel.
Rodgers should remain with his favoured 4-1-4-1 formation with Barnes, who came from the bench to equalise against West Ham last time out, possibly taking the place of Albrighton or Gray from the start.
Arsenal: In comparison to Rodgers, Emery has a few more selection headaches ahead of the trip to the King Power. He has stated that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang should be fit though after missing out midweek following a sinus procedure. He may start from the bench in East Midlands though with Lacazette leading the line for the Gunners.
Denis Suarez will also be assessed following a groin issue yet will unlikely feature from the off after his disappointing time in North London. Aaron Ramsey remains on the sidelines with a hamstring injury whilst Danny Welbeck also misses out due to an ankle problem.
Hector Bellerin and Rob Holding both remain absent too as both are suffering with knee injuries. Emery chose a 4-2-3-1 formation last time out mainly due to the absence of Aubameyang yet he may revert back to a 3-4-1-2 if the latter returns.
Match facts from Opta
Leicester have won just one of their last 24 Premier League meetings with Arsenal (D7 L16), though it was in this exact fixture last season (3-1).
Arsenal haven't lost consecutive away league games against Leicester since November 1983.
Leicester have lost eight Premier League home games this season. They've only lost more in a single campaign in the competition in 1994-95 (10) and 2001-02 (9).
Arsenal have lost their last two Premier League games on a Sunday, last losing three such games in a row back in March 2013.
Arsenal have never lost a Premier League game that has kicked off at 12 noon, winning 15 and drawing four. Their last such match was a 5-1 win at Fulham earlier this season.
Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers hasn't lost consecutive home league games at any of his clubs since September 2012, losing vs Arsenal and Manchester United at Anfield as Liverpool boss.
Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers has won just two of his nine Premier League meetings with Arsenal (D3 L4), beating them with Swansea in January 2012 and Liverpool in March 2014.
Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has scored three goals in his two league games against Leicester, averaging a goal every 40 minutes against the Foxes.
Leicester striker Jamie Vardy has scored six goals in his last seven Premier League games against Arsenal – only against Liverpool (7) has he scored more in the competition than he has against the Gunners (6).
Leicester City (4-1-4-1): Schmeichel; Pereira, Evans, Maguire, Chilwell; Ndidi; Gray, Teilemans, Maddison, Barnes; Vardy
Arsenal (3-4-1-2): Leno; Sokratis, Koscielny, Monreal; Maitland-Niles, Xhaka, Torreira, Kolasinac; Ozil; Aubameyang, Lacazette
Score Prediction: Leicester City 2 Arsenal 2
The last three fixtures between these two has seen 13 goals with both sides winning 3-1 in the last two fixtures. Arsenal's away form hasn't been the best this campaign, highlighted by the fact they've only kept one clean sheet on the road in the league. Therefore, expect Leicester to score.
The Foxes will be looking to bounce back after two disappointing games and will be hopeful of given their home fans something to cheer about with 7th place still a possibility for the Foxes.

This timely and insightful book assesses the potential of longer work lives to strengthen retirement security. With a clear-eyed view of the challenges associated with such a major social and economic change, this book is an essential resource for individuals, employers, and policymakers alike.
View myths and realities about working longer.
View reviews and press coverage.
The authors would like to thank the Prudential Foundation for their generous support of this book and The Atlantic Philanthropies, whose support stimulated the initial interest in this topic.
As Americans live longer and healthier lives, many seniors will need to generate additional income to remain financially secure. The skills, experience, and expertise of these seasoned workers can only stand to benefit our economy. This book is a timely and comprehensive look at the challenges and opportunities of recruiting and retaining older workers.
We have made remarkable progress in improving health and longevity. Now we need to figure out how to finance the substantially longer retirements these gains have produced. In Working Longer, Munnell and Sass make a strong case for moving the average age at retirement from 62 to 65 or 66—and thereby safeguarding the future of most retirees. Anyone who is interested in preparing our country for a better retirement future should read this elegant essay.
This book is a badly needed wake-up call. With lifetime pension plans dwindling and employer health benefits to retirees shrinking drastically, Americans—especially the Boomer generation—need to face the reality that Munnell and Sass describe: longer lives, higher costs, and inadequate savings in their 401k plans and elsewhere. This means that average Americans are going to have to work longer or face poverty in their so-called golden years.
The retirement landscape is different from the one you might have imagined just a few years ago. The good news is that you're living longer. The bad news is that health care will cost more, pensions are shrinking, and your investments might not have grown as fast as you'd hoped. Munnell and Sass show you how—by working a little longer—you can overcome these challenges and live the retirement you'd planned.
The United States has a retirement income problem. This remarkable book examines one potential solution to the problem: increased work by older Americans. Munnell and Sass provide thoughtful answers to the key questions. This is a lucid, thorough, and thought-provoking contribution to a very important debate.

Different Types of Strawberries

How Are Strawberries Processed?

There's a strawberry (Fragaria spp) for nearly every season and a would-be berry grower can choose from among three main types to suit garden conditions and growing zones. Strawberries are sensitive to degrees of warmth and light, so it's a good idea to try a few varieties to see which plants work best in your garden. Every type of strawberry needs eight hours of full sun daily to blossom, fruit and ripen.
Juicy June-Bearing Berries
The variety most commonly planted by home growers is also the one most intensively developed by commercial growers for large berries, high yield, sweet flavor and other desirable characteristics. June-bearing berries bloom and fruit once, for a few weeks in June, and produce large berries. They are planted in most areas in the spring, once the ground thaws in about March or April, so they have time to root well and acclimate before summer heat. The first year, remove the flowers of June-bearing plants so they develop widespread runners and robust roots, ensuring that second-year and subsequent harvests are abundant. A June-bearing cultivar 'Jewel' (Fragaria x ananassa) adapts easily to U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 4 through 8 and bears very large, sweet berries.

Multi-Harvest Everbearing Berries
Everbearing berries produce fruit two or three times over the growing season -- once in spring and again in late summer or early fall, with a possible midsummer harvest. The plants are sensitive to the number of daylight hours in late spring and late summer, when they bear fruit. Everbearing varieties send out few runners, so you can cultivate them in tight areas like half-barrels and garden containers. Plant everbearing strawberries once you can work the ground, and pinch the first flowers in the initial planting year. This encourages better yields for the remainder of the growing season. Everbearing cultivar 'Ogallala' (Fragaria x ananassa) is a drought-tolerant hardy plant, producing abundant sweet berries that freeze well. It grows vigorously in USDA zones 3 through 9.

Day-Neutral Season-Long Strawberries
A quest to develop a strong performer that produces berries all season resulted in day-neutral strawberry cultivars. Day-neutral means the plants aren't affected by the length of daylight, although they tend to fruit more abundantly in cooler weather and less in the hottest days of summer. When planted in the spring -- in late March or April -- flowers appear in about 30 days and should be pinched off until the end of June the first year to ensure an abundant harvest for the rest of the season. The fruit is small to medium, unlike the larger June-bearing and some everbearing types. But the plants will flower and set berries in temperatures between 35 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit, and will still bear berries in October during mild autumns. A day-neutral cultivar 'Tribute' (Fragaria x ananassa) produces flavorful, abundant crops in spring, summer and fall in USDA zones 4 through 8.

I save and invest my money; I've never been married and I have no kids. My father was a businessman who ran a successful chiropractor practice.I'm not saying every guy in my age group is like this, but overall, my personal experience hasn't been fulfilling for me.I started my media career at age 9 at a community TV station and my ambition level went up from there.I still get the common response from my friends: "He's too old for you! " I've also had a few people in my life suggest that I do it because I am a "gold digger."So, the broad answer is this: To clarify, I'm not dating older men because I am a "gold digger." It's more important for me to pull my own weight and be financially stable.I have nothing against guys my age; I have tried dating them, but I have constantly come across the following:– They're not ambitious enough, or they don't have a go-getter attitude.– They're not financially stable.– They still want to date around.– They have had baby mama or ex-wife drama.– They don't have their sh*t together.he won't push it he waits for me and doesn't pressure me to much. George Clooney and his new wife, Amal Alamuddin, are the talk of the town.
What about Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, who were 16 years apart when they were married?Or, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, who are 25 years apart in age?

Throughout its history, Hy-Vee has consistently worked with local producers and growers to bring customers the freshest, highest quality produce. Meyocks developed a campaign that would make shoppers aware of both the source of the produce and the relationships Hy-Vee has cultivated with local growers.
Though Hy-Vee has worked with local producers for the better part of a century, customers weren't necessarily aware of those relationships. The grocer has its finger on the pulse of the consumer, and knew that buying local had become an ingrained part of consumer behavior. Shoppers today like to feel good about where their food comes from — and Hy-Vee had a good story to tell.
Meyocks developed the Hy-Vee Homegrown campaign to help customers immediately recognize locally sourced products within the store — defined as items grown and delivered from within 200 miles. By featuring the actual local producers responsible for the products, the campaign emphasized both Hy-Vee's community relationships and commitment to working with dedicated growers.
The agency conducted photo shoots with more than 40 of Hy-Vee's growers across more than a dozen locations. These photos were used to give customers an understanding of the people — and the stories — behind the produce on display.
Chalkboard signs allowed each store to promote the Hy-Vee Homegrown brand consistently — while still easily customizing their signs to promote different featured growers each week throughout the season.
Hy-Vee store produce managers have embraced the campaign — and each store's produce section now has the feel of an upscale farmers' market. Attractive signage with a hand-lettered aesthetic makes Midwest-grown produce easily identifiable, helping customers feel good about buying local while shopping at Hy-Vee.
Meyocks continues to help update the Hy-Vee Homegrown campaign — including conducting additional photo shoots with new growers as the grocery chain moves into new markets, and producing additional signage to fulfill store-level demand.

Ивуарийско-французские отношения — двусторонние дипломатические отношения между Кот-д'Ивуаром и Францией. Страны являются членами Организации Объединённых Наций (ООН) и Франкофонии.

История
Португальские моряки стали первыми европейцами, которые высадились на территории современного Кот-д'Ивуара. В 1687 году в Ассини-Мафии была основана французская миссия, которая стала первым европейским форпостом в этом регионе. В 1842 году Франция объявила этот район своим протекторатом. В 1880-х годах французское колониальное правление на этой территории было введено после окончания гонки за Африку во время Берлинской конференции 1884 года.

К концу 1880-х годов Франция установила эффективный контроль над прибрежными районами Кот-д'Ивуара, а в 1889 году Британская империя признала суверенитет Франции над этим регионом. В 1893 году Кот-д'Ивуар стал французской колонией. В 1904 году Кот-д'Ивуар стал частью Французской Западной Африки.

Во время Первой и Второй мировых войн ивуарийские солдаты воевали на стороне Франции. Во время Второй мировой войны ивуарийские солдаты стали частью западноафриканских Сенегальских тиралеров и сражались во время Французской кампании и в Итальянской кампании под руководством правительства в изгнании Сражающейся Франция во главе с генералом Шарлем де Голлем. После освобождения Парижа и окончания Второй мировой войны Кот-д'Ивуар стал частью Французского Союза в 1946 году. В 1958 году Кот-д'Ивуар становится республикой в составе Французского сообщества. В августе 1958 года президент Франции Шарль де Голль посетил Абиджан.

В декабре 1958 года, как часть Французского сообщества, Кот-д'Ивуар стал автономной республикой в результате референдума 7 августа того же года, получил этот статус как член бывшей Французской Западной Африки. 11 июля 1960 года Франция признала право Кот-д'Ивуара стать полностью независимым. Кот-д'Ивуар стал независимым государством 7 августа 1960 года и ему было разрешено прекратить членство во Французском сообществе. Феликс Уфуэ-Буаньи стал первым президентом Кот-д'Ивуара.

Сразу после обретения независимости Кот-д'Ивуар попал во французскую сферу влияния, известную как Франсафрика. Отношения между странами сложились тесные и Франция стала крупнейшим торговым партнером Кот-д'Ивуара.

В октябре 2000 года Лоран Гбагбо стал президентом Кот-д'Ивуара. В 2002 году началась Первая Ивуарийская война, главным образом в результате экономической, этнической и религиозной напряженности между северной и южной частями страны. Франция направила войска в страну для поддержания мира и выступила посредником во время гражданской войны, чтобы договориться о восстановлении мира в Кот-д'Ивуаре.

В ноябре 2004 года произошел вооружённый конфликт, когда ивуарийские правительственные самолеты атаковали французских миротворцев в северной части страны, где они находились в рамках операции «Единорог» в поддержку Операции ООН в Кот-д'Ивуаре (ОООНКИ). В результате атаки погибли девять французских миротворцев. В результате вооружённые силы Франции столкнулись с ивуарийскими войсками и лояльными правительству повстанцами, а французские ВКС уничтожили самолёты Военно-воздушных сил Кот-д'Ивуара. За этими инцидентами последовали массовые антифранцузские протесты в Кот-д'Ивуаре, которые привели к нападениям местных жителей на иностранцев их Европы. Франция направила в страну дополнительно 600 солдат. В марте 2007 года между ивуарийским правительством и повстанцами было подписано мирное соглашение.

В ноябре 2010 года в результате президентских выборов в Кот-д'Ивуаре началась Вторая Ивуарийская война. В апреле 2011 года французские солдаты арестовали Лорана Гбагбо в его резиденции в Абиджане, положив конец гражданской войне. Алассан Уаттара стал новым президентом Кот-д'Ивуара.

Между лидерами обеих стран состоялось несколько визитов на высоком уровне. В августе 2017 года президент Алассан Уаттара посетил с официальным визитом Париж, чтобы встретиться с президентом Франции Эмманюэль Макроном. В декабре 2019 года президент Эмманюэль Макрон посетил Абиджан с официальным визитом.

Помощь Франции для Кот-д'Ивуара
Франция является ведущим донором помощи для Кот-д'Ивуара. В июне 2012 года Кот-д'Ивуар завершил Инициативу в отношении долга бедных стран с крупной задолженностью. В июле 2012 года страны подписали двустороннее соглашение, которое предусматривало списание коммерческого долга в размере 913 миллионов евро и дополнительное списание 2,9 миллиарда евро для Кот-д'Ивуара через механизм контракта на сокращение долга и развитие.

Back in the early 2010s, Aliens Colonial Marines was shaping up to be one hell of an impressive title. With great looking visuals and effects and smart enemy AI that could track you down like a real predator would, the title promised to be the ultimate Alien experience that fans had wanted for years.
Unfortunately, when the game was actually released, well that turned out to not be the case. From the downscaled graphics and effects to terrible Xenomorph AI that showed nowhere near as much intelligence as expected, the game was a train wreck that barely functioned at the best of times. It was a huge downgrade from the promotional footage, and made players wonder what had actually happened. Was Randy Pitchford a liar? Was the game misrepresented in the earlier footage?
Did the impressive looking original title ever exist at all?
No one knew, and everyone expected the worst. It was the No Man's Sky of its day, a game where promises were broken and the actual work was a poor imitation of its own marketing.
However, as it turns out, said promises may not have actually been so inaccurate after all.
Why? Because as a certain modder found out, the poor quality of the Xenomorphs' AI can actually be traced to a single mistake in a certain line of code in the game.
As you can see, the cause of the bad AI was not that better AI didn't actually exist in the code, but because someone in the development team made a single typo that broke the game wide open.
Notice how it says 'teather' instead of 'tether'?
Yeah, that's the issue. Basically, the code is meant to tell the Xenomorph what room it's currently in, so the creature can use the geography of the area to ambush and flank the player. It's meant to say that 'here's where the player is, here's where you can best jump out from to kill him more easily'.
But the typo breaks that, since it removes the hook that runs the room identification code. This means the Xenomorphs now don't understand the terrain at all and have no idea what room they're in or how its laid out.
Hence the terrible AI demonstrated in game. They're like you if every day was your first day at work or school. You have no idea where anything is, so all you do is wander aimlessly and hope to figure out where you're going.
It's mindboggling really. And it really does provide the value of QA testing your work thoroughly.
They completely ignore said systems and assume 'hey, it all works fine' when it clearly doesn't.
Or that somehow, they couldn't spot an obvious bug, despite it clearly affected how the game was working.
None of which reflect well on Gearbox and the other companies involved. This is the kind of thing you expect from a small, perhaps poorly run company working on one of their first projects, not a large group working on a triple A title.
And here's a reminder to programmers working on said games that testing your work is one of the most important things you can ever do. Otherwise you too could break a multi-million-dollar game with a single typo in a line of code!
