Most of you know my thoughts on this, so no point beating a dead horse.
It makes no financial sense to keep the game running as is "just because." I am willing to help the game last until August 7th so it can die with honour. That much it deserves at the very least.
I would love to see SFO to stick around but its just not competitive. There are so many other fighting games nowadays that can be played on the pc online against other players. Street fighter, KOF, Mortal Kombat, Marvel Veruss Capcom, Tekken. Why should a new player play a 2001 Browser based, laggy as heck fighting game? The only thing it has going for it is that its free while the others you have to pay full price but that full price is worth it.
I dont know about the other games but have you guys played Tekken 7? That chiz is good man it locks at 60 fps the vast majority of the time and has an amazingly deep combat system, yes people spam but you get owned by spam only when you havn't gone into practice mode and practiced over and over how to deal with that spam. In SFO the game is based on spam (which actually makes it unique and stand out in my mind) but you can only do so much against that spam because the lag and "warping" and hits not registering limits the defensive and offensive options that you have.
SFO simply does not have enough cards on the table for someone to want to play it rather than the other games, the big titles and even smaller titles get people playing them because they have more to offer.
For me for SFO to survive you have to give compelling reasons for people to say "hey i'll play that instead!"
This a spam post (prolly) but eff it.
we might have to let SFO go.
The thread has been cleaned. There are existing threads for legacies and personal achievements. Utilize those if you want to talk about your legacy.
Bahki, Usurp, and Shadow R., thank you for your support.
To everyone still here helping in some way, thank you as well.
To tell you the truth, I don't know where we go from here. I have no answers, no suggestions.
Hit the kill switch now. Slash, Burn and rebuild.
You are missing the point. At this point SFO CANNOT survive, our last chance was when we hyped up 2.0 that only ended up being the same game. (on its initial release there were almost 20+ people in the server for around a 2-3 week period).
You can't expect people to give money to sustain something JUST CAUSE, actually it's almost worst than that to be honest. There is nothing to be gained from that sort of investment.
I see nothing wrong with building a new product if the old one clearly cannot sustain itself. At this point killing the game, but keeping up the forum (maybe for future brainstorming even) I'd imagine would cut SFO's maintenance cost significantly, which we could then relocate funds to create, like everyone is suggesting, a newer game. Even if it took a year or 2 of SFO being down, that's seems like a much more viable option than keeping this game alive.
I agree. At this point the general census I'm getting (which I agree with) is that SFO no longer should be "sustained" rather 'Slashed, burned and rebuilt', No matter how long it takes.
I also agree as for shutting down the game and its servers and like Latios said relocating the funds to build a newer more modern better game that will last PAST 17+ years.
SFO has had the most amazing run for an Free Online Browser based 2001 Coded game to even last this long, and the community as well. The time draws nigh, I think we should just keep this forum and all who want to help suggest/brain storm on a next step for a new SFO game/Engine.
If any of us really LOVE SFO and its a big or any way shape or form part of our live/s/childhood then we should realize its time is up and we should use this time/money/resources/community to raise from the ashes and create a new game.
No. I didn't miss the point of any suggestion or post in the topic. What I didn't do was agree with any of them, or make a similar suggestion.
Again, I understood. I just didn't agree with any one post within mine. Understanding does not equal agreement, nor does it have to.
I also didn't ask anyone to continue donating to or supporting SFO in its current state, or dismiss any specific suggestion (except the unban suggestion).
What you and LuXv miss is that I'm not in the same position as any of you, or any staff member who has posted in this topic.
It's actually counterproductive (and misleading to the community) for me to co-sign what you're outlining as the only way forward.
There's no dishonesty in that. Just wisdom and diplomacy.
Titanium at this point you are arguing for the sake of arguing, as one of the most high ranked members of this community, you have already stated yourself that you have nothing really productive to add to this thread's discussion. Which is nothing to be ashamed of ofc, you brought professionalism and great moral leadership to SFO when it was demanded. At this point however status is merely a nuisance: we need to decide on an outcome for this game that we can all support. Killing the game without a full-fledged back up plan is the worst we can do, but burdening community with keeping a game alive is equally as bad in my eyes.
We need to use whatever talent we have left here to try and build something bigger and better, i'm sure even among those of us still here there are folks more than capable of successfully creating a new SFO.
Well here is where we shot outselves Total was somebody who could of rebuild the game.
@Shiny~Latios , you're confusing a response with an argument.
You continue to choose to respond to my posts based off of preconceived notions, and not what I actually say in my posts--possibly because you're still misunderstanding my actual points, or ascribing the meaning you think they have. Some advice: don't read more into my posts than what's actually there.
I didn't come back to argue with you.
I have no objections to any suggestions anyone wants to make (with the exception of the "global unban" fantasy solving anything).
I'll still abstain from co-signing any specific suggestion because that's not what the community or TMyApp needs from me.
Free yourself from the need to respond to my posts, my dude. Read them, but keep moving. Continue to brainstorm as you please. This will cease to feel like an argument when you, you know, stop arguing.
You can't actively respond to my posts and then say I'm arguing for the sake of it when I respond to you. But you can choose to stop responding.
Total was one of the best programmers.
But he was not capable of rebuilding the game at the time he was let go.
To say that he was is inaccurate and not helpful, to say the least.
Alrighty then, so as a COMMUNITY what is OUR next step?
What would make the most sense moving forward for this game?
Right now (as of this moment) I would like for SFO 2.0 to cease from any future updates/bug-fixes technical support & we can transition into starting up a newer version FROM SCRATCH with a better engine.
Todo this we would have to decide which engine would be the best moving forward (and seemingly has the best longevity) Our target Market (Casual Online Gamers I suppose) and Platforms we want our game to be on (Most likely still Web/DL version, although a Mobile App counter part would be dope).
Then we would have to discuss Coders (unless TMyApp still wants todo the Majority if not all of the coding which I doubt would be practical) that we could either bring in/hire (pay with donations) or are already here in the community.
Should we use this thread to brain storm the next steps after SFO 2.0 is 'retired" or "put to rest" or shall we keep pretending like this game still has hope in this climate?
Because the FACT of the matter is, this Engine has been pushed FAR BEYOND its useful years and anymore work put into it would be counter-productive to a new engine.
I KNOW people would rather donate towards a new engine than keeping SFO 2.0 servers up, just like how so many members donated during the "Dream Goals" era.
Unless there are other options I'm not seeing at this moment that would be better and anyone could share with the rest of the community?

Lets assume the game had near zero glitches and was close to lag free as possible. The game was easy to open on all platforms. Hosting and challenging others were no longer an issue. Character and update releases continue based on donation goals. Staff and credible members periodically held events, tournaments, and clan battles.
In my opinion, failing to bring in more players than the natural leaving rate is why SFO is on life support.
To be honest, What else can SFO accomplish with it's current engine and current state?
In august, 17 years running with over a million users and spanning an entire generation. I'm a sucker for narratives and it's definitely hard to say this but maybe it's time to go out a SUPER loud bang, streams, events, maybe a final character or donation campaign and have SFO leave the way it started... with an amazing legacy.

well.. after reading this thread.
There is a plan which is on the official site, steps 1 and 2 were completed, a dedicated server will be implemented to solve host problems and stability in the game. The second step "the interface" raises modernity in the game.
The third step is actually an advertising campaign to attract more people to the game.
In my personal opinion I think that although the forum is something very important, it is also staying in the game and working together as in the old day.

I agree wit Mil Angel, there's still hope in SFO to achieve another 17 years of fun and excitement after all 3 steps are completed. A good idea could be is: instead of calling this thread, "Final Funeral", let's turn this title into, "SFO Rises Up Once Again".
I'm passing by and felt the need to place my 2 cents. I will say from now that you will probably not like what I'm going to say, but as they say, the truth hurts.
First of all, SFO should have died a few years ago. When TMy confirmed that the new features he wanted weren't working, when he couldn't just "port" over SFO to the new shockwave engine, those should have been signs that it was the end. Because as pretty much everyone can agree, SFO cannot survive at all in it's current state. Everything has to be redone from the ground up. Allow me to put this in perspective.
Let's start with when SFO first started(Back when it was called X-men vs Street Fighter). During this time fighting games were in a kind of limbo, a "dark age" so to speak. And back then, there wasn't much of a reliable way to play others from miles away. These factors, I believe contributed to the appeal of SFO. Being able to play something similar to the MvC days of old, for free on your browser?
Fastforward several years later and SF4 created a resurgence in fighting games. Additionally, this was also around the time when online play began being embraced and started becoming more common. It was easier to connect to others and play your favorite games online. It was then that SFO was beginning to show its age. And then we have GGPO/Fightcade where people can play actual MvC (Legal issues aside) instead of an old laggy buggy version of MvC.
Just passing by as well.
I like this community and have good memories over the years. At this point I doubt the regulars actually like or play the game otherwise we would have more than 10 people on in a day. Because of that lack of activity it just discourages any one else who is thinking about trying out the new update or colour. The outdated engine actually hinders ease of access. I remember a few months ago I wanted to fire up SFO to see if I recognized anyone and I couldn't get it run past the loading screen on the web version. I don't know what the issue was but that basically killed my curiosity.
I think the best thing to do is just keep the forums alive but I feel like that will pass too out of inactivity in a few years. It's not worth the investment if people like the idea of the community but not actively engaging in it. I know what it's like to keep a dying community alive as I've done it elsewhere. After countless updates, emails, pestering etc. it just has to be accepted. I issued a big bang announcement speech talking about some of the good times where everyone chimed in and we shut it down with a bang. At least this way it's a darling in our memories where we reminisce rather than seeing everything fade away into obscurity.
The legends, the clans, the ranks, the late nights. It's in the past. Time to call it.
I agree with Latios. But starting from scratch and rebuilding is no easy feat and very expensive. Not sure what kind of talent is here on the forum, and even if there how committed they are to developing something of this magnitude.
As of right now, operational costs have not only been covered (we're in September now), but other project costs have been covered.
For more, check out our last community update here.
Donations have always been voluntary and SFO's player base are all adults in their 20s and 30s now. None of us have blinders on. We may be running on fumes, but we're still running and hoping to see better days.
In a group sense, as a consensus, it's not really a question of whether to keep donating or stop donating. That's up to each individual, as always.
If the consensus of many here is to let SFO die, then all you need to do is log off and wait for that to happen. And don't donate.
If you would still like to support SFO, we could always use the help.
Whether or not I agree with all points raised here, or feel they were the time and place (some of them, especially some remarks from staff members, were not appropriate) I understand them.
Thank you all for what you've done for TMyApp and SFO, and for your opinions.
This topic and discussion is now closed.
If you would like to appeal this topic closing, contact me via PM at any time, or email me (my email is in my signature).

In Search of a Concrete Music  (French: À la recherche d'une musique concrète), written and published in 1952, is a French language publication which forms a major part of the experimental composer and theoretician Pierre Schaeffer's collection of works written to record his own undertakings on the development of musique concrète.

The collection is discussed, among other works of Schaeffer's, in chapter two of Robert Martial's Pierre Schaeffer, des transmissions à Orphée.

Jonathan Meets Sanusi At Last
President Goodluck Jonathan and a former Central Bank Governor, Lamido Sanusi, met for the first time since he (Sanusi) became the Emir of Kano.
The former CBN boss was one of the northern traditional rulers who joined President Jonathan in the Presidential Villa, Abuja, for the breaking of Ramadan fast.
The traditional rulers were led by the Sultan of Sokoto, Sa'ad Abubakar III.
Sanusi led others in a special prayer for peace during the short event held inside the President's residence.
The President later took turns to shake hands with all the traditional rulers in attendance, including Sanusi.
Abubakar, who spoke on behalf of his colleagues, condemned the bomb blasts recorded in Kaduna earlier in the day, as well as other acts of violence across the country.
While describing the perpetrators as enemies of humanity, he insisted that they and their sponsors had no Islamic agenda.
He requested that the President should grant the traditional rulers an audience in the nearest future in order to discuss issues of national importance.
The President granted the request immediately.
In his short remarks, President Jonathan urged the traditional rulers to team up with his administration to end insurgency.
While seeking for more prayers, he said that the situation could have been worse if not for prayers.

The mission & vision of an organisation is an answer to what it is, what it wants to be & what it believes in. A corporate film production is the best way to communicate about it to its customers, stakeholders and employees.
We at Nityanta – one of the most well-known corporate film makers in Mumbai created a Mission & Vision Audiovisual for Securens - an Enterprise IoT company. At every step of the audiovisual production, which included scripting, previsualization, live shooting, motion graphics, editing & post-production, we ensured quality by putting our best men to work. The aim was to make a film that communicates the core message in a simple, clear & concise manner.

2019 doesn't open with a lot of releases for us this week. Up first we have Night School, Kevin Hart's comedy from 2018. I would have liked it more if it focused on the ensemble cast and not just the leads. I thought the supporting cast were a lot funnier than the main characters played by Hart and Tiffany Haddish. When the film is about the class and classmates, it's really quite funny, but unfortunately the movie is more about Kevin Hart's character Teddy and that's a shame. Teddy never graduated from school and must take night classes (taught by Haddish) to get a new job. His fiance doesn't know he's a dropout and he keeps his night school activities a secret. The principal of the school (Taran Killam) is a nemesis from his high school days who doesn't want him at his school. But Haddish's teacher character feels bad for him and allows him in her class. That class is a mix of misfits ranging from a married mom who wants to escape her family, a dad going back to school because he made a bet with his son, a waiter from Mexico who wants to be a dental hygienist, a prisoner Skyping from jail and so on. When the movie is in that classroom setting, Rob Riggle, Fat Joe, Romany Malco, Al Madrigal, Mary Lynn Rajskub, and Anne Winters all get big laughs. Even Haddish isn't all that important to the film. The posters and trailers make it look like a Hart/Haddish vehicle, but it's really not. As the teacher, she has some decent scenes, but ultimately anyone else could have done the same. I really wish it was more about the overall class than just Hart because the classroom was really funny. Seeing Fat Joe Skyping from prison, Malco not trusting robots, Rajskub never wanting to be with her family, it all worked for me. But then it would go back to Hart trying to hide his life from his fiance and him having a hard time learning. It has great supporting characters, but ultimately is the latest comedy you watch once and never really need to see again.
Staying with comedy, next is Love, Gilda, a documentary on the legendary Gilda Radner. Radner was one of the original cast members of Saturday Night Live, was married to Gene Wilder and died at an early age. This is a pretty intimate look at Radner that mixes old photos and videos and her own personal writings. Melissa McCarthy, Bill Hader, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph and Cecily Strong read from Radner's writing while others tell stories about her life and career. Martin Short, Chevy Chase, Laraine Newman, Paul Shaffer and others share stories and give details about Radner's early life. Then there is the footage with her and Wilder when she got sick. You can't deny the love the two had for each other and the footage is so personal. I actually learned quite a bit from the movie as well. I had no idea she was married to G. E. Smith, the band leader from Saturday Night Live. It also delves into her longtime eating disorder. Radner was a chubbier kid and her mother made her diet. She would have eating issues for most of her life. Even if you've read Gilda's autobiography I still recommend the film. It's intimate and really shows you the person she was.
Sticking with documentaries third is Bad Reputation about Joan Jett. This is another in-depth documentary starting with the early years and what she means to people. From asking for and getting a guitar when she was a teen to her days with The Runaways and her solo career, you get everything you wanted to know about the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer. The old footage is cool to me. You see performances of The Runaways, her first days with The Blackhearts and even concert footage from the 1990's and 2000's. Plus you get other musicians talking about her influence. I never realized she had a longtime collaborator. Kenny Laguna has been with her from the beginning and his daughter would also help direct Joan's career when music went digital. I was never the biggest fan, but you have to respect someone who's been doing it for over 40 years. Jett had more hits than I realized and inspired generations of musicians. Like the Gilda Radner documentary, this is personal, intimate and recommended for fans.
Kino Lorber this week releases a few Blu-rays with some all-time greats. First is The Bounty starring Mel Gibson, Anthony Hopkins, Daniel Day-Lewis, Laurence Olivier, Liam Neeson and more. I hadn't seen the movie in over 20 years and forgot just how big the cast was. I also forgot about all the nudity when the crew finally gets to land. Hopkins is fantastic as usual, but a young Mel Gibson really held his own. If you don't know the story, it's a retelling of The Mutiny on The Bounty where Gibson leads a mutiny against Hopkins because he doesn't want to leave the island and his woman. The crew overall agrees and sends Hopkins and the leaders off into the ocean. Hopkins faces a panel back in England to see if he was at fault for the mutiny. The acting is top-notch and seeing Neeson, Gibson and DDL at a younger age is a treat. I've always enjoyed the movie and this Blu-ray looks really good and comes with multiple commentaries and more.
Tell Them Willie Boy is Here was new to me. This 1969 film finds Robert Blake playing a Mexican named Willie Boy who returns home to be with his love. In self-defense, Willie kills his love's father which puts him on the run with Robert Redford out looking for him. It has a great western feel with long shots, great backdrops and I'm always down to see Robert Redford in a western type movie. My dad remembered the movie and liked it. The cinematography is good and the acting is good as well. If you like modern-type westerns you should like it. It also comes with commentary and more.
Last we have The Appaloosa starring Marlon Brando. This 1966 western sees Brando returning to his small hometown to start a horse ranch but his Appaloosa horse is stolen by bandits and he seeks revenge. This was back when Brando was a great actor and not the shell of the man he became. It also has what you expect in a western, great cinematography, bad guys, long shots, backdrops and more. I had never heard of it and it's not connected to Appaloosa, the Ed Harris movie from 2008. It's not Brando's greatest work but he's still better than most of what you see today. It's surprisingly violent for a movie of that time period as well. This new release also comes with audio commentary.

Latter-day patriots often speak of the U.S. Constitution as if it's sacred scripture – the wisdom of ages, revealed to men of letters through the divine faculties of reason. Although this makes for a good story, Bob and past guests have poked holes in that narrative, and revealed how certain compromises required for ratification were a bridge too far for some of the wisest Founding Fathers. The skeptics, known as the anti-federalists, worried that the limited powers outlined in the Articles of Confederation were not circumscribed clearly enough in the new constitution. Seeing the end result of these compromises – a too-powerful federal government – we must give credit to the anti-Federalists. William J. Watkins Jr., a research fellow at the Independent Institute and author of a new book, Crossroads for Liberty: Recovering the Anti-Federalist Values of America's First Constitution, says we should go a step further and seek the reforms they sought, as previewed in the Articles of Confederation. Widely viewed as a failure for granting states too much power, the short-lived Articles may be ripe for a revival, as Americans tire of a president who acts like a King, a congress removed from the people, and a judiciary that legislates from the bench. Join Bob and William as they discuss the relevance of anti-federalist ideals to current events, from Trump's executive orders to California's new secession movement.

Return to History
The Service now had first class cutters designed specifically for its missions. In his eight years as Commandant, Billard had overseen an expansion unprecedented in Service history. He is recognized as one of the greatest Commandants. He was just starting his third tour of duty when he suddenly died of pneumonia. It was universally agreed that he had literally worked himself to death. It was his cutters, and one class still to come, that would take the Coast Guard into a new era.
Admiral Harry Hamlet succeeded Admiral Billard as Commandant. The country was in the middle of the Great Depression and President Roosevelt was looking to cut government costs. As the Assistant Secretary of the Navy in 1919, Roosevelt had firmly believed the Coast Guard should have been part of the Navy. He had not changed his mind. Another brief round of consolidation was fought and won. The Coast Guard stayed in Treasury. In 1934 Henry Morgenthau became Secretary of the Treasury.
This period was marked by several extraordinary rescues, notable the cases of Morro Castle and Childar. These, and the growth of other missions, lead to the commissioning of nine more 165B-class cutters. One of these, Electra, served for one year before being transferred to the Navy for conversion to the Presidential Yacht Potomac.
Transoceanic airways services began to expand. Navigation was sketchy and aircraft often needed the assistance of ships to verify their positions. It was assumed that, eventually, an aircraft on the trans-oceanic route would be forced to ditch and a search and rescue (SAR) operation would be needed. In addition, the weather service was asking all ships at sea to send them weather information for forecasting. These circumstances came together to shape a new Coast Guard mission. Cutters would man Ocean Weather Stations. These cutters would transmit navigation data to aircraft, transmit weather data to the Weather Service, and stand by for SAR as needed. This mission lead to a new class of cutter. In 1933, the largest ship yet designed for the Coast Guard was approved by Congress. The 327' Secretary-class cutters would join the fleet in 1936. In 1936, Admiral Russell Waesche succeeded Admiral Hamlet as Commandant.
The ocean weather station idea originated in the early days of radio communications and transoceanic aviation. As early as 1921, the Director of the French Meteorological Service proposed establishing a stationary weather observing ship in the North Atlantic to benefit merchant shipping and the anticipated inauguration of trans-Atlantic air service. Up to then, temporary stations had been set up for special purposes such as the U.S. Navy NC-4 trans-Atlantic flight in 1919 and the ill-fated Amelia Earhart Pacific flight in 1937.
The loss of a Pan American aircraft in 1938 due to weather on a trans-Pacific flight prompted the Coast Guard and the Weather Bureau to begin tests of upper air observations using instrumented balloons. Their success resulted in a recommendation by Commander E. H. Smith of the International Ice Patrol (and future Director of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution) for a network of ships in the Atlantic Ocean.
World War II brought about a dramatic increase in trans-Atlantic air navigation, and in January 1940 President Roosevelt established the "Atlantic Weather Observation Service" using Coast Guard cutters and U.S. Weather Bureau observers. Most flights at this time were using southern routes. On 10 February 1940, the 327-foot cutters Bibb and Duane occupied Ocean Stations 1 and 2, the forerunners of Stations Delta and Echo.
With the U.S. entering the war, Coast Guard cutters were diverted to anti-submarine duties, and the weather stations were taken over by a motley assortment of vessels ranging from converted yachts to derelict freighters, mostly Coast Guard operated. There was one converted Navy tanker. As trans-Atlantic air traffic increased, so did the number of weather and plane guard stations. The role of weather during the Battle of Coral Sea and trans-Pacific flights resulted in stations being set up in that ocean also. At the service's peak, there were 22 Atlantic and 24 Pacific stations.
A typical weather patrol was 21 days on-station. A "station" was a 210-mile grid of 10-mile squares, each with alphabetic designations. The center square, which the ship usually occupied, was "OS" (for "on-station"). A radio beacon transmitted the ship's location. Overflying aircraft would check in with the ship and receive position, course and speed by radar tracking, and weather data. Surface weather observations were transmitted every three hours, and "upper airs", from instrumented balloon data, every six hours. Using radiosonde transmitters and radar tracking, balloon observers obtained air temperature, humidity, pressure, and wind direction and speed to elevations of 50,000 feet. Oceanographic observations were recommended for weather ships almost from the start.
The duty was monotonous, but dangerous. The ships were basically helpless targets for any enemy action. On 8 September 1942, USCGC Monomoy was enroute to station to relieve USCGC Muskeget 450 miles south of Greenland. The vessels were in communications with each other. When Monomoy arrived on station, Muskeget was missing with her 116-man crew, four Weather Bureau personnel and Public Health Service doctor.
The chief of the U.S. Weather Bureau wrote during WWII, "… the weather reports from these vessels were among the most vital meteorological information for war operations of the United States … The difficulty and hardships of these station vessels was fully recognized but the value of their reports more than compensated for those difficulties, and the men so serving were performing duties of high priority in the war effort."
By 1945, American ships manned 13 Atlantic stations and 24 Pacific stations. European nations combined to man another nine in the Atlantic. By 1946, the number had been reduced to two in the Pacific and one in the Atlantic. A 1946 conference strongly recommended the re-establishment of the stations. Other nations balked at supplying ships and questioned the real need.
On 14 October 1947, Bibb was manning Station Charlie, midway between Ireland and Newfoundland. A full gale was blowing. Bermuda Sky Queen, enroute to New York with 69 souls on board, ran out of fuel and was forced to ditch in 20-foot seas. She homed in on Bibb's radio beacon while Bibb spread oil to calm the seas. The aircraft made a perfect ditch landing and surfboats from Bibb rescued all on board. The need for the weather stations had been demonstrated. Eventually nine permanent stations were established in the Atlantic. Originally, five permanent stations and one manned during typhoon season were established in the Pacific, but this number was gradually reduced to three permanent stations. The Coast Guard manned five Atlantic and all Pacific stations. France, England, Canada, and the Netherlands manned the others.
Station Sugar was a typical station in the Pacific Ocean. The typical itinerary for manning the station had a cutter sail from a West Coast port to Sugar, from Sugar to Japan for R&R, from Japan to Sugar, and from Sugar back to home port. This was a three-month evolution. Oceanographic observations were recommended for weather ships almost from the start. Beginning in 1945 and continuing to the end, cutters made bathythermograph (B/T) observations that today constitute the largest B/T archive in existence. Many specific, short-term programs were carried out with oceanographers frequently riding the ships.
On 16 October 1956, Pontchartrain was manning November when she received a call from Pan American Clipper 10943. The aircraft had lost an engine and would have to ditch. Pontch laid fire-fighting foam to calm the seas. It was said that a female passenger looking out the window saw Pontch below and said to the person next to her, "There they are, God bless them." The pilot made a textbook ditch, but the aircraft broke in half. Surfboats immediately began transferring passengers and crew to the cutter. Within 20 minutes of ditching, the aircraft had sunk. But before she did, every soul on board was safe aboard Pontch.
In 1964, Coos Bay rescued the crew of the foundering British ship Ambassador while manning Station Echo. Rockaway rescued the crew of Smith Voyager. There are several other instances of ocean station ships coming to the assistance of aircraft or ships in distress. These are the most well known. But by 1970, new jet aircraft were coming to rely less on ocean stations, and satellites were beginning to provide weather data. In 1974, the Coast Guard announced plans to terminate the U.S stations. In 1977, Taney was the last cutter to man an American station. The program ended when the last Dutch ship departed Station Mike in 1981.
Of course, sometimes the rescuers needed rescuing. On 23 July 1947, Bibb and her 150-man crew were assigned to Ocean Station Charlie, when a crewmember, Seaman Joseph Johns of Helena, Georgia, became seriously ill with a ruptured appendix. The ship did not carry a doctor, and the pharmacist mates on board believed Johns' condition was beyond their capabilities to help. The captain considered steaming for Argentia (Arj), Newfoundland, but the situation dictated that Johns needed to be airlifted immediately to medical help. The Coast Guard Air Detachment based at the U.S Naval Air Station at Argentia dispatched a PBY-5A on the mission. The pilots and aircrew for this mercy mission were Patrol Plane Commander (PPC) LT. William Morrill, First Pilot (PP1P) Aviation Pilot First Class Clayton. Roll, PP2P and navigator, Chief Aviation Pilot Kenneth Franke, and crew members Aviation Machinist Mate First Class (AMM 1/C) John Pallam, AMM 2/C J. C. Entrekin, and Aviation Radio Man First Class (ARM 1/C) Walter Corbett. This aircraft and crew made a 1,300-mile round trip and an open sea landing and take off to bring Johns to a hospital in St. Johns, Newfoundland.

Maintaining a set of integers is a common problem in programming. It can also be implemented in many different ways.
Maybe the most common implementation uses a hashing (henceforth hashset): it provides optimal expected-time complexity. That is, we expect that it takes a constant time to add or remove an integer (O(1)), and it takes a time proportional to the cardinality of the set to iterate through the elements. For this purpose, Java provides the HashSet class.
An alternative implementation is the bitset: essentially, it is an array of boolean values. It ensures that adding and removing integers takes a constant time. However, iterating through the elements could be less than optimal: if your universe contains N integers, it may take a time proportional to N to enumerate the integers irrespective of the number of integers in the set.
So, suppose you expect to have 1000 integers in the range from 0 to N. Which data structure is best? The hashset or the bitset? Clearly, if N is sufficient large, the hashset will be best. But how large must N be?
I decided to implement a quick test to determine the answer. Instead of using the standard Java BitSet, I decided to write my own bitset (henceforth StaticBitSet) that is faster in my tests. For the hashset, I compared both the standard HashSet and TIntHashSet and found that there was little difference in performance in my tests, so I report just the results with the standard HashSet (from the OpenJDK 7).
The following table reports the speed in millions of elements per second for adding, removing and iterating through 1000 elements in the range from 0 to N.
These numbers are consistent with the theory. The speed of the hashset data structure is relatively independent from N whereas the performance of the bitset degrades as N increases. However, what might be surprising, is how large N needs to be before the bitset is beaten. The bitset only starts failing you (in this particular test) when the ratio of the size of the universe to the size of the set exceeds 1,000.
The bitset data structure is more generally applicable than you might think.
Source: My Java source code is available, as usual.
Further reading: In to Sorting is fast and useful, I showed that binary search over sorted array of integers could be a competitive way to test whether a value belongs to a set.
It might be because the bitset is more cache friendly. I personally love the bitmagic C++ library (http://bmagic.sourceforge.net/) as it handles sparse sets really well.
Have you got perf figures for that StaticBitSet class, compared to a BitSet?
You can also run the code and see for yourself what happens on your own machine. Results may vary.
BTW I am not saying that BitSet is bad. My StaticBitSet class just does better, it seems, on this particular test.
Daniel, this is entirely consistent with my experience. A well-implemented bit set is a nearly optimal data structure for modern CPU architectures. It is brute force but in a manner CPUs are highly optimized for. If you are saturating all the ALUs then the number of entry evaluations per clock cycle is very high. Hash sets have to overcome their cache line overhead and relatively low number of evaluations per clock cycle.
As you undoubtedly know, when bit sets become large/sparse enough to become inefficient, a very good alternative is compressed bit sets.
Of course. I'm just wondering since I have some extremely performance-sensitive code which uses java.util.BitSet — it'll be nice to benchmark it there too, given those numbers….
does somebody know of a sparse hashset implementation in Java which is more memory efficient than the THashSet?
I need some memory efficient datastructure for the case that there are areas of consecutive integer values … or how would you implement that?
to be more specific: do you think that one could combine bitset and hashset?
I mean a hashset which is baken by (linked or whatever) several bitsets?
would be nice to see some b search + sorted vector in comparison, like in your linked blog post. Even more interesting would be some cache aware or even (if they exist) cache oblivious "kind of b search + sorted vector". I guess binary tree "flattened" to array would behave nicely with regards to cache perf.
but I think compressed bitsets are not an option for me as I need random access.
You are welcome to steal my StaticBitSet implementation and benchmark it for your purposes. It is available on github.
Agreed. It would be interesting to throw in more data structures and more strategies. I will do so in the future.
It is a reasonable request, but I don't know of an existing solution.
You might want to look at compressed bitsets. They could meet your needs. See https://github.com/lemire/simplebitmapbenchmark for a comparative benchmark.
Yes, I understand what you seek.
If you ever find a good solution, please email me.
See the com.ibm.wala.util.intset.IntSet interface and its implementations. Efficient representation of integer sets is critical to the scalability of many program analyses.
Interesting post! http://www.censhare.com/en/aktuelles/censhare-labs/efficient-concurrent-long-set-and-map shows a different approach for sparse sets using a bit trie.
Here's another approach: randomize the integers using a pseudorandom permutation (aka block cipher), and divide them into buckets indexed by the MSB of their randomized value. (The bucket size should be chosen to fit into a cache line in expectation.) Then to look up an integer, encode it and scan its bucket (linear search should suffice if the bucket fits in a cache line). To intersect two of these sets, intersect each corresponding bucket (sets of different sizes will have different bucket counts, so this requires intersecting each bucket of the smaller set with all buckets in the larger set of which that bucket's index is a prefix). Again, this is just a linear scan on cache-line-sized buckets (if encoded values are stored in order within a bucket then you can pick up the scan where you left off from the last value you looked up). Note that no decoding is required for intersections if both sets share the same permutation (and you don't want to enumerate the result). You can enumerate the whole set simply by scanning and decoding each bucket. I've been able to get around 60% compression this way with a few million 32-bit integers, and around 78% with a more complex version of the structure (using Elias-Fano coding in the buckets). For the permutation, any 2-round balanced Feistel network with a fast round function works fine; a couple of rounds of RC5 (too weak for crypto!) seems fast enough in practice.

Pony Power Therapies seeks to make therapeutic horseback riding and horse-assisted activities available to as many qualifying participants as possible. Program fees only cover approximately 65 percent of our costs of providing instruction in this unique setting, and donations enable us to subsidize the remaining 35 percent.
Pony Power Therapies is proud to have launched its first scholarship fund in 2016 and pleased to have named it in memory of Leo "Vinny" Viniar, whose family have been longtime supporters of our programming. The fund provides financial aid to a limited number of families, schools and agencies who have demonstrated an inability to pay the full program fee for therapeutic horseback riding or our other horse-assisted programs.
"He was a very kind and gentle man, and when people met him, they instantly liked him," said David Viniar of his late father. "Everything about him was kind and generous." As David's wife Susan, Pony Power's board chair, relayed stories from her time at the farm as first a volunteer and later as board chair, Vinny also came to appreciate our mission. In fact, Vinny has a namesake at the farm, a Norwegian Fjord purchased for Pony Power by Susan and David to celebrate Vinny's 90th birthday.
Upon his passing in 2015, the family requested donations to be made to Pony Power in Vinny's memory, and the response was remarkable. These gifts were "paid forward" to create our first scholarship fund and with continued support, the Leo "Vinny" Viniar Scholarship Fund can continue to grow and make Pony Power's programming available to individuals who would not have the opportunity otherwise.
Pony Power believes a strong sense of ownership and pride is developed if the recipient contributes to the cost of their involvement. Therefore, applicants will be asked to pay some portion of the fees.
Documentation that you/your family receive government assistance such as TANF, WIC, SSI, disability, housing assistance, etc.
The Scholarship Committee will review your application and supporting documents anonymously. All information will be kept confidential.
