## Attendees

 - MRB

## Agenda

### Standing items

* [ ] intros for new folks on the call
    * [ ] Filipe Lains

* [ ] (CJ) budget
    * current approvals?
    * Whenever updated numbers land, please screenshare and show the budget.
        * Link is in Keybase (numfocus_spreadsheets.txt)

* [ ] open votes
    * none

### From previous meeting(s)
* [x] (CB) Now have a 1password account
    * Chris Burr will send invite link around to core. Existing owner needs to approve
    * Can store secrets in there.
        * Should move all 2FA in authy to keybase so we dont need to harass Isuru for his phone number
    * Migrate everything to 1password. Can still chat on Keybase.
* [x] (CJ) conda-forge patches for conda backwards compat (`=` is done, but what about `~=` and others)
    * (IF) we should not break deps of conda so people can update their envs
    * todo
        * [x] bump this at the community meeting
        * [x] (MRB) Cheng, did we patch conda build/index to not put the newer ops in generated repodata?
            - conda-index not currently patched
            - Anaconda will work on this issue (assuming no one else does)

### Your __new__() agenda items

* [x] (MRB) intel compiler agreement
    * see core email list for text
    * unclear if the agreement would impact current MKL builds if it was terminated
    * TODO: Wait for numfocus and then ship it :ship:
        * [x] (MRB) post note on core gitter about it
* [X] (MRB) update on travis stuff
    * [ ] TODO: Write blog post for transparency reasons. Need a champion for this one (Matt can at end of october)
* [X] (JK) CUDA 11.3 & 11.4 (dropping 10.x)
    * Wanted to drop old compilers (gcc8?) and use new compilers (gcc9). Can't figure out a way to get the migrations to work. Ideally want to move to enhanced compatibility. Want to set up new CUDA packages too. Makes sense to make these two big changes together instead of two big changes separately.
    * Repodata hotfix that does `==11.2` to `>=11.2,<12`
        * (KK) May need to check if there's constraints on `__cuda` in the `cudatoolkit` package that would also need to be patched?
    * Also ok to add `cudatoolkit` packages for 11.3 & 11.4
* [X] (JK) CUDA ARM
* [x] (JK) Drone
* [x] (CB) OpenSSL 3.0.0 migration? https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge-pinning-feedstock/pull/1896

### Pushed to next meeting

    * RCs should be compatible with final release
    * Need new conda-build release to build
* [ ] (CJ via MRB) more reproducible builds?
    * CJ: thinks its pretty close
    * motivated by this blog post: https://hpc.guix.info/blog/2021/09/whats-in-a-package/
    * embed azure build log into the package
    * embed which build system
    * git hash of feedstock?

Namine's new kitchen
Paul	· May 15, 2016
Yesterday my aunt helped us rearrange our kitchen.
As Namine has gotten older, we've changed things around, as best we can, to increase her accessibility in the apartment. With the landlord's help, we got door handles instead of doorknobs. My aunt made Namine a small sink, where she can wash up and get ready for bed. We took out all the hanging clothes and put in a large shelving unit with drawers that Namine can reach to get her own clothes out and put away.
Jessica loves to cook. I love to try to cook. (I'm pretty decent with breakfast food, anyway.) So of course, Namine wants to cook. She's got an induction burner that she's cooked with, but until now it's always been her sitting on the floor or on top of the counter. Our kitchen area is so small, it's standing room only. We've done our baking and mixing at the kitchen table, but it's a little high for Namine.
We wanted to build something custom, where Namine could sit at and learn to cook comfortably. With my aunt's help, we did just that.
Namine's new kitchen counter sits at just a bit over two feet tall. It's the perfect height for Namine to roll up to in her wheelchair, but it's also not too low for Jessica and myself to sit at in a chair. It's six feet long, which is plenty of room to cook at. It's also long enough to serve as a breakfast bar.
So this morning, after we got home from church, Namine and Jessica made pancakes. Well, that was originally the plan. But Namine decided she wanted to use the mini-donut maker instead to make little pancake donuts.

When I was a kid, I was not a Disney fan. I watched the movies, had a few t-shirts, but never experienced the "Disney Magic" until I went with my wife and father-in law several years ago. Standing in anticipation when the park was about to open, trotting through the park with excitement and joy, and walking back to the hotel utterly exhausted at closing was a tremendous experience. I cannot wait to share this Disney Magic with my daughters.
Whether you're a lifelong, diehard Disney fan, or you're new to the Disney scene, this one's for you. Here's our compilation of the Ultimate Disney Running Playlist to keep your mind off the distance and give your running routine that Disney Magic you crave!
Talk about a true classic. This song, featured in the original 1967 release of the Jungle Book, is one of the happiest, most upbeat songs you can have on your playlist no matter how dreary your running routine.
What better way to get happier than exercising? According to How-Stuff-Works, exercise causes the body to release endorphins which will lower anxiety. Read more about that here .
Imagine all the swashbuckling, can-do and conquer-it-all activities you can achieve with this tune. If you've seen any of the movie series, let me tell you, when you hear this song you almost feel like you're out there on the sea in one of the many adventures of Captain Jack Sparrow and his cronies.
I'll bet gym instructors love this one.
Run as swiftly as a coursing river. Pound the pavement with the force of a typhoon. Take on the Hun and leave him in the dust with the daring Mulan and the characters in this lively movie and its soundtrack.
For cold days when you would rather curl up on a sofa with a hot cup of drink than go for a run, this song will make that workout happen. Challenge the icy air and show them what you've got with the winning spirit of Princess Elsa.
A word of caution. Running in cold weather comes with its own safety risks. Here's a quick article that explains what you need to keep yourself protected while out in the cold.
Feel like a superhero with this tune by rock band Fallout Boy. It plays when Hiro and his friends are trying out their superhero suits. It's sure to get you pumped and help you scale through the most rigorous run.
When it comes to Disney men, Hercules is most qualified to inspire a good workout. His abs alone are intimidating. Use this tune to get yourself prepped and into your training routine.
You may not end up looking exactly like Hercules, but according to this article from the National Health Service England, NHS, running to music can help you run longer.
Seeing yourself in the place of the underdog Aladdin, sprinting around the streets to escape the guards, is just the motivation every runner needs to put on your trainers and hit the track or the gym. You'll feel like giving yourself a pat on the back after your run -- trust me.
Did you know listening to music you love can help you run faster and better? Well, The Boston Magazine explains the medical research behind this fact here.
The king of the jungle doesn't let anything stand in his way, and neither should you. At 182 bpm, this tune will make you the king of the run and make the minutes fly by without you noticing.
Who can forget the unique Caribbean appeal of this song? It's one song you are likely to keep on repeat, especially towards the end when the song's pace really picks up.
Like her or not, this song by Barbadian singer Rihanna comes in at a whopping 128 bpm and has a fast-paced, feel-good appeal to it that is guaranteed to help you along the race course.
Remember to keep safe while running and don't let the music distract you. This article from WebMD gives some good safety tips for listening to music while running.
So, there you have it: our list of Disney songs to include in your running playlist in order to improve your routine and increase your stamina. With these upbeat, fun songs, you're sure to love the results you get. You'll be feeling like a workout master in record time. We whipped up a nifty infographic with these great songs below. Feel free to share with your friends!

Q: Jenkins pipeline not able to execute the HttpClient.execute(HttpPost) My groovy config in Jenkins pipeline:
HttpUriRequest postRequestLogin = new HttpPost();

Let's face it, the main attractions that draw people to Naples, namely Pompeii, Mount Vesuvius and Herculaneum are outside the city and indeed we give each of these their own dedicated pages.
But the City of Naples is worth at least a day of anyone's time and if you are into museums, art, architecture or culture much longer.
Yes, the City of Naples has its museums, cathedral and other religious monuments but perhaps suffers from Naples being in Italy. Anywhere else, many of these would be show-stoppers but visitors reach Naples after having visited Rome and Florence a day or so before. So the contrast is unfair.
What Naples does offer is its own unique city experience. Your expectations may be slightly confused. Isn't this a very poor city, lots of poverty and will I be safe?
It is also a modern city too, a thriving port, a playground for the rich and famous in the nearby island of Capri with cultural museums and great churches.
Well Naples is all of that, a city of diverse experiences. It can be raw at times, but pleasantly so. It's not neatly packaged for modern tourism and to be treated like a theme park. The only real way to explore the city is independently and walking most of the time.
Below are the main attractions your favourite guidebook will point you towards and they are indeed a fine framework to frame your visit around.
You will be rewarded though if you don't organise a tight itinerary to be followed with military timing. Try to expect the unexpected and have contingency to indulge in whatever hidden personal treasure you find.
Whether you arrive at the Central Station or the ferry/cruise port or are lucky enough to stay in a hotel in central Naples you may well be fine just walking everywhere. All the main sights are easily walked to from any point in the centre.
As ever there is a Naples open top hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus that visits all the main sights along three separate routes.
There is a good local bus network and it's conceivable you might use the limited Metro for a short ride.
How you can access the network is explained on City of Naples public transport page.
The public transport maps have the main sights marked too and are a good way of getting orientated with relative locations.
One public transport option you may well want to take is one of the funicular railway up to San Martino for great views. The funicular is an attraction in its own right.
If you can, try and walk back down into the city via one of the many steep walkways getting glimpses of everyday neighbourhood Naples.
A Gothic cathedral built in the 13th century in the north east sector of the historic centre, about a 10-minute walk from Central Station, though local buses go to the door.
The cathedral is dedicated to Naples patron saint San Gennaro or Saint Januarius. A vial of the saint's blood is brought out three times a year - on the first Saturday in May, September 19 and December 16 - and if it liquefies, all is well. If it doesn't... fears are held for the safety of Naples. Luckily, it nearly always liquefies.
The cathedral contains some excellent artworks including frescoes.
To one side of the cathedral is the 4th century Basilica Santa Restituta, the oldest chapel in Naples. Under here is an interesting archaeological site tracing the Greek, Roman and early Christian city.
The Spaccanapoli and Via Tribunali form the east-west pedestrian spine of the historic centre of Naples and with good reason most visitors head for and perhaps linger more than they scheduled.
Originally the heart of the Greek and Roman city, the Spaccanapoli district is a string of narrow, winding streets and is mainly a pedestrian zone. The area has arcades dating back more than 1,000 years.
As a tourist honey-pot there is a fair share of tourist tat but the scale of this area is huge and the tight alleys reveal something of interest around almost every corner, especially if you look up as well as from side to side.
If you venture away from the Spaccanapoli and Via Tribunali tourist area, perhaps around Spacuano Castle, some of the alleys may not look as inviting and safe.
As you might expect in the old historic centre there are plenty of churches, with many worthwhile to visit. Santa Chiara is one of these and sits on the Spaccanapoli in the south west sector of the historic centre.
Santa Chiara Church is part of a large complex that includes a monastery with beautiful cloisters decorated with majolica tiles and frescoes and an interesting archaeological museum.
The Naples Archaeological museum is one of Italy's top archaeology museums drawing many of its exhibits from Pompeii and Herculaneum outside the city.
The museum has one of the world's best collections of Greek and Roman antiquities, including mosaics, sculptures, gems, glass and silver, and a collection of Roman erotica from Pompeii.
The museum is at the north western periphery of the historic district and is served by a Metro Station (Museo) that is of limited use for visitors as well as buses.
Piazza del Plebiscito is the center of modern Naples, just south of the historic centre and only 5 minutes' walk from the cruise/ferry terminal. San Francesco di Paola, on the piazza, is a huge domed church. Palazzo Reale, the Royal Palace, is across the square. Inside you can visit the restored rooms and royal apartments and visit the roof garden where there are good views of the bay.
San Martino is on top of a steep hill just west of the historic centre. The excuse you need to come up here is the Museum and Monastery of San Martino from where there are great views of the entire city of Naples spread out below you.
Take the Funicular Centrale, one of the longest in the world that leaves from Via Toledo by Galleria Umberto, just north of Piazza del Plebiscito for another great experience.
An equally good experience is to walk back down the hill not via the circuitous roads but by the many walkways/steps. There is a walkway down immediately in front of Piazza San Martino by the entrance to the museum that winds down past old houses with no vehicular access to the historic centre below. More scenic options are on the other side of the hill where you will see steps marked on most of the tourist maps (see image).
San Martino Museum is housed in the Certosa di San Martino a large monastery complex dating from 1368 next to Sant Elmo Castle, which you can also visit. Museum exhibits are housed in the former living quarters of the monks.
Expect paintings and sculptures from the 13th-19th centuries, the museum is famed for Neapolitan nativity scenes. The monastery gardens have fruit trees, flowers, fountains and magnificent views.
Aimed squarely at the visitor to Naples this pass combines public transport in Naples for 3 days, (including the Naples airport bus) plus entry to two attractions from a long list that includes the National Archaeological Museum in Naples and Pompeii and Herculaneum.
From the third attraction onwards you enjoy up to a 50% discount on standard tickets.

TO THE NEW AMBASSADOR
OF THE REPUBLIC OF KENYA
TO THE HOLY SEE*
Mr Ambassador,
It is a pleasure for me to welcome you to the Vatican and to accept the Letters of Credence by which His Excellency President Daniel T. Arap Moi has appointed you Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Kenya to the Holy See. I am grateful for the President's good wishes and ask you kindly to assure him of my continued prayers for the progress, peace and prosperity of your country.
You have referred to the Holy See's efforts to promote justice and peace in the world, and it is precisely this endeavour which characterizes the Holy See's presence in the international community. In fact, the fruitful and friendly relations existing between us are inspired by the shared conviction that the dignity and rights of the human person must be upheld and defended at all times and under all circumstances.
Your presence here today, Mr Ambassador, is a sign of your Government's readiness to work for that justice and peace for which the peoples of Kenya — and all of Africa — so ardently long. A real commitment to these ideals is in fact a necessary prerequisite for authentic development and true progress. Thus I renew today the hope which I expressed five years ago while standing on Kenyan soil: may every citizen of your country, regardless of religion, ethnic background or social class, live in freedom and help to build a society based on unwavering respect for human dignity and human rights (cf. Address at Departure from Nairobi, 20 September 1995, 2). This is the only sure path for promoting justice and development, for combatting unemployment, for giving hope to the poor and the suffering, for resolving conflicts through dialogue, and for establishing a true and lasting solidarity between all sectors of society.
Both in Africa and throughout the world the Catholic Church is deeply committed to the struggle for integral human development, and the Holy See is very much involved in efforts to increase understanding and harmony between peoples and nations. Making world leaders ever more aware of their responsibilities in these areas and of the priorities that they must set for themselves and for their countries' institutions is an essential element in this undertaking. Chief among these priorities is deepening people's understanding of their personal rights and responsibilities. This is not merely a question of making knowledge and information available; it is also a matter of imparting a keen sense of responsibility for the common good, an attitude which prepares the way for enlightened participation in public affairs on the part of all sectors of society. This is the soul of social progress, the key to the future, the necessary element for truly effective programmes of development.
As is made clear by the unresolved and even increasing difficulties being experienced in many parts of Africa, not least of all in your own region of the Continent, progress is not a simple, automatic and limitless process, as though societies were able to advance endlessly towards some sort of perfection (cf. Encyclical Letter Sollicitudo Rei Socialis, 27). While social and political development are necessary for achieving and maintaining peace and security within and among nations, they cannot be authentically attained without respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. Each country's good governance and development can only be the result of concerted action, especially in what concerns the defense of human dignity, the protection of human rights and the administration of justice. In the last analysis, all basic problems of justice have as their main cause the fact that the person is not sufficiently respected, taken into consideration or loved for what he or she is. People must learn or learn anew to look at one another, to listen to one another, to walk together (cf. Address to the Diplomatic Corps, 16 January 1993, 6).
In this context I wish to express once more my hope that the international community will show an ever greater preparedness to address the imbalances and injustices which are built into the structures of the global economy and which have serious repercussions for the peoples of Africa. One initiative which I have sought to bring before world opinion in this year of the Great Jubilee has been debt relief for countries such as yours; but this cannot be an isolated gesture. It must be accompanied by a more comprehensive reassessment of the ways in which the world economy functions, especially at a time when the forces of globalization are becoming increasingly powerful. The globalization process brings a promise of greater cohesion and prosperity. But there is also a danger that it will aggravate economic imbalances, leaving developing countries like your own still more seriously disadvantaged. I assure you, Mr Ambassador, that the Holy See intends to continue to do all that it can to convince world leaders and institutions that economic globalization must be accompanied and "humanized" by "the globalization of solidarity". Without this it is unlikely that we shall succeed in building a future worthy of humanity.
In all these various undertakings, of course, Kenya's Catholics are eager to lend their support and make their contribution to the nation's life and development. This in fact is part of the spiritual mission which has been entrusted to the Church by her Divine Founder, and in fidelity to this mission she seeks to serve all people, especially those most in need. Their faith in the Gospel of Jesus Christ impels Christians to respond to the cry of the uneducated, the sick, the suffering and the marginalized. In cooperation with their fellow citizens, the members of the Catholic community will continue their efforts in the service of the common good, and I thank Your Excellency for your recognition of the work of the Catholic Church in Kenya and of her positive influence on society.
Mr Ambassador, I extend to you my best wishes for your tenure as your nation's representative to the Holy See and assure you of all necessary assistance in fulfilling your high mission. May Almighty God abundantly bless you and your fellow citizens.

Guillermo Lorca García-Huidobro is a young Chilean artist of astonishing talent. Of self-taught formation, he has realized a pictorial work of great quality, where the virtuosity of the hyper realistic technique sums up a very contemporaneous thematic visibility. He possesses the necessary tools to create a pictorial work that goes from body-language to hyper realism. This way, the author approaches his work with the ease of a mature painter, at the same time with the artistic insolence of a pupil.

The Colour of my Dreams is the debut album by former Razorlight and We Are Scientists drummer Andy Burrows. The album was in aid of charity with all proceeds donated to a hospice for children in Winchester, Burrows' home town. The songs on the record are from a book of poetry Burrows found written by a close family friend. The album was recorded in Burrows' home.  The album artwork comes from local artist and teacher, David Thomas.

Overview

The album received much praise from the other members of the Razorlight band. Bassist Carl Dalemo said that it had been in itself huge progress for the profile of Razorlight.

To support the release of The Colour of my Dreams, Burrows organised a one-off charity concert at Islington's union chapel where the band had performed for MENCAP in November 2007. As well as Burrows performing songs from the album, many other musicians and celebrities offered their support, notably members of Editors, The Guillemots, celebrity chef Jamie Oliver and up and coming artist Lucy Rose.

SSE Airtricity League Premier Division
'Dundalk FC must eat their bread and butter if they want to continue dining at the top table' - Pat's away preview

Dundalk FC must eat their bread and butter if they want to continue dining at the top table, say the champions, with full focus on their SSE Airtricity League Premier Division clash at St. Patrick's Athletic on Saturday evening (Richmond Park, 5:30pm).
The game had originally been postponed from its Friday night slot, but has since been re-fixed, despite Dundalk's impending departure to Azerbaijan.
The Lilywhites recovered from an early shock against Qarabağ to claim a well-deserved 1-1 draw in their UEFA Champions League second qualifying round first leg at Oriel Park on Wednesday evening, leaving the tie delicately balanced ahead of next week's return.
They will make the long journey to Baku on Monday morning, but first, they must ditch the glamour of Europe's elite competition and take care of domestic business.
Shamrock Rovers took advantage of Dundalk's inactivity last weekend with a 7-0 whipping of UCD at Tallaght Stadium, which reduced the gap at the top to five points.
Dundalk FC's Seán Gannon and Daniel Cleary.
Vinny Perth's players can now regain their eight-point advantage in the capital this Saturday – for 24 hours at least – ahead of the Hoops' trip to struggling Cork City on Sunday (4pm), as Ireland's two European hopefuls navigate their congested fixture lists.
Dundalk's head coach spoke of a "special night" against Qarabağ on the Carrick Road, and he knows that they must not take their eye off the ball if they want to experience the same nights next summer.
"We spoke to the players after the Qarabağ game and said 'if you want these special nights again, you've got to win the league'," Perth revealed.
"We have got to refocus now ahead of St Pat's. We had an amazing support up there the last time we played; our away support has been excellent over the last number of months.
"We're going to need them again, because we're going to have to go to the well on Saturday and get a big performance before we head off to Azerbaijan.
"You can play matches that don't mean a lot, but this is what we want. We want to be involved in these big games and Saturday is just another one of them."
Defender Seán Gannon – who won the league with St Pat's in 2013 before subsequently winning four titles with Dundalk – reiterated the point, as he chases an incredible sixth league crown in seven years.
"We've got a big game now on Saturday and we need to focus on that first (before Qarabağ next Wednesday)," Gannon said, "because the only way you get these nights back is if you win the league.
"It's a massive game for us on Saturday and that is where we're looking at now. We've got to put all our energy into that and then obviously once the game is over and done with, we can start looking forward to the next leg."
Robbie Benson is tended to by Dundalk FC's medical team on Wednesday night.
Dundalk are unbeaten in 19 games in all competitions since suffering back-to-back defeats by St Pat's and Sligo Rovers in early April.
That loss at Richmond Park was particularly unlucky as the champions went down 1-0 after a late first-half own-goal from centre-half Daniel Cleary.
Cleary is likely to be called upon on Saturday as Perth freshens up his team, with Daniel Kelly, Dean Jarvis, Georgie Kelly, captain Brian Gartland and in-demand Cameron Dummigan others in contention for starts.
However, Robbie Benson's rib injury sustained early on in the draw with Qarabağ means he joins Jordan Flores (hip) and Stephen Folan (knee) on the sidelines.
Gannon, though, believes Dundalk have the adequate resources to fulfil a league fixture between their two legs with the Azerbaijan outfit.
"We have got a seriously strong squad," the 28-year-old said. "We're well capable of games every few days and that's just what we have to do.
"It's a game that we have to go and win. We're in good form, so we have to be going there confident. I think the strength of our squad will come out and you'll see – I'm always saying, anyone in the squad is as good as each other and anyone can play.
"St Pat's are a dangerous opponent in Richmond. We need to go there fully prepared; recover well and go to try to win the game.
"They have beaten us already; they have got very good players and on their day they're a very good side. We need to show them a lot of respect. We'll go there confident, with a good game-plan and try to get three points."
Meanwhile, his fellow defender Andy Boyle – who has been a class act since recently returning from the UK – says Dundalk's fixture list is a sign of their success and he would not want it any other way.
"We have to go and win the league – that's what gives you the nights like this, that every player wants to be involved in," Boyle added, as focus switched immediately following Wednesday's 1-1 draw.
"When you win a league, they are nights you remember forever. When you retire, they're the nights you'll remember and the medals you have.
"We'll do it properly over the next couple of days and we'll turn our attentions now.
"The more games you play obviously means that you're doing well in all competitions. It's a good complaint. Of course, we're enjoying it. They're great nights and big games to play in."
St. Pat's, who currently lie in fifth with outside hopes of catching Bohemians in third, were outclassed in Europe by Swedish side IFK Norrköping, going down 4-1 on aggregate in the UEFA Europa League.
Harry Kenny's men will now aim to get their league form back on track, after losing 3-0 to Bohs at Dalymount Park last Sunday.
However, they have given Dundalk plenty to think about already this season. The Saints won 1-0 when the sides met at Richmond Park on 5 April, with the Lilywhites edging the return 1-0 at Oriel Park in May after the most fortuitous goal from Seán Hoare at the death.
The teams also met in the EA SPORTS Cup in Dublin in April, with Dundalk winning 2-1 thanks to Georgie Kelly and Jarvis. James Doona had temporarily levelled for the hosts.
Dundalk's last league outing was three weeks ago, a 2-2 draw at Derry City, with the champions this weekend putting their 15-match unbeaten run in the Premier Division (13 wins, two draws) on the line.

Ludwig Göransson Is The Perfect Person To Compose a Score for 'The Mandalorian'
December 20, 2018 Annlyel James	Leave a comment
As 2018 quickly comes to an end, news of the highly-anticipated live-action Star Wars series, The Mandalorian, is ramping up full throttle and now, on the heels of the announcement of the official cast, the composer for the series has been revealed.
Ludwig Göransson, who you may know for his Golden Globe-nominated score for Black Panther and his composing of the music for Venom, is set to bring his fresh and unique vibe to the Star Wars franchise and I honestly couldn't be more excited.
Ludwig Göransson blew my mind with his ethnic yet heroic take on Black Panther and while I haven't seen Venom yet I'm sure the music for it is just as tantalizing to the ears. LucasFilm has made great decisions in casting composers that each brings a uniqueness yet iconic familiarity to their individual projects. I'm sure Ludwig Göransson's involvement in The Mandalorian series will be a perfect idea on LucasFilm's part and I absolutely can't wait to see what his musical talent can bring to the Star Wars franchise.
How do you feel about this exciting news? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below.
I thank you for reading and I hope you have a beautiful day. May the Force be with you.

The Cast of 'The Mandalorian' Has Been Released
As you may already know Disney is making a streaming service complete with exclusive content and one of its earliest gifts to all us Star Wars fans is a live-action Star Wars series called The Mandalorian. Since the news of the show was released a few months ago I have been so excited about this series and now the official cast for the show has been announced. So, here are the actors that will help bring The Mandalorian to life.
As you may have seen about a month ago I wrote a post highlighting my excitement that Narcos actor Pedro Pascal was set to play the lead in The Mandalorian. Of course, it was all but confirmed but now that LucasFilm has announced the cast it's official. He will be the man beneath the Mandalorian mask.

Nick Nolte Joins 'The Mandalorian'
December 1, 2018 Annlyel James	2 Comments
Recent news surrounding the casting of The Mandalorian has excited Star Wars fans as we learned the news that Narcos actor, Pedro Pascal would play the lead of the live-action series, Deadpool actress/WWE fighter Gina Carano also was revealed to play a lead in the show, and now it's been announced that 3-time Oscar-nominated actor, Nick Nolte is also set to join the series.
I haven't seen any of his movies but I'm sure he will be a great addition to the show. He also has a rugged look which will perfectly match the undoubtedly gritty style of the series.
This is great news and my excitement for this series is growing! 🙂
I thank you for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day.

More News Involving 'The Mandalorian' Has Arrived!
November 14, 2018 Annlyel James	1 Comment
Yesterday it was reported that Narcos actor Pedro Pascal was potentially joining The Mandalorian for the lead role which was undoubtedly an exciting prospect but now more casting news has arrived.
It seems that Deadpool actress, Gina Carano, is set to join Pedro Pascal in a lead role in the upcoming live-action series. Of course, this hasn't been officially announced by Star Wars yet but with The Hollywood Reporter breaking the news it definitely seems legitimate.
Oh, I'm getting more excited for this show by the second. What do you think of this news? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below.

The Lead Actor for 'The Mandalorian' Has Been Revealed!
November 13, 2018 Annlyel James	5 Comments
Just last month the live-action Star Wars show set to appear on Disney's upcoming streaming service, Disney+, wowed fans around the world with an exclusive image featuring the show's mysterious lead character and the release of the name; The Mandalorian. But now the man behind the mask has been revealed and of course, I'm here to share this exciting news with you all.
Pedro Pascal, who you may know for his lead role in the critically-acclaimed Netflix series, Narcos and his role in the Emmy-winning series Game of Thrones, has been announced to play the lead in The Mandalorian. Um, how awesome is that?
First off, he looks like he'd be an awesome Star Wars character. Secondly, it looks like Disney is continuing the trend of diversity by casting the lead as a man of color for the series. That's always exciting. And third, because he is such an incredible actor he will bring a delightful grittiness to this bounty hunter series.
This is GREAT news and now I am even more excited for this show.

The title and synopsis for Star Wars' newest obsession, Disney Play's live-action Star Wars show, just dropped today and the internet went bonkers over the concept of this exciting new television series. But now, dropping just minutes ago, is the first official look at the upcoming series focusing on, as the title suggests, the Mandalorian. Here it is!
Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Is this really happening? A live-action Star Wars show? It almost feels unreal. For so long I have dreamed of this moment but figured it would never come. Well, thanks to Disney, my dreams have come true and I am BEYOND excited.

Think of the huge volume of data that cities are generating every day: garbage collection, traffic, transportation users. Where does Europe host this large volume of numbers, values and parameters? In a server on the Amazon cloud? Shall it develop a mobile app with Google software to check it out? Or develop its own alternative?
The answer is called Fi-Ware -like software, but in the cloud-, an open platform for the use of large public data to create applications for smarter cities. Brussels and a consortium of European private companies have put 600 million euros on the table (300 million by the EC and 300 million provided by the industry) to develop this project, which is quite ambitious although tiny if we compare it to its American competitors.
And yet, Fi-ware could shake the status quo. During 2014-15 the EU will allocate EUR100 million to finance SMEs with special emphasis on startups that develop apps based on fiware. An event to present the project to entrepreneurs in Seville this week raised high expectations- after the crisis nobody can afford to lose time nor money.
"I've seen some interesting apps like one focused in energy saving, putting sensors in street lamps and controlling them through a remote system," said Antonio Parrado, sales manager at Grupo Arelance, a software developer SME in Málaga. "I'd like to send a project to the Fiware team but we'll see if my bosses want to invest. We'd need to find some local government or university to cooperate with first," he explains.
The idea looks nice on paper, at least: through the so-called "challenges", Fiware will reward the best apps using this platform with more than EUR340,000. Still critics insist that Europe will have a hard time to compete with the U.S. since innovation too often depends on public funding.
"If European SMEs and startups see Fiware as the way to launch innovation projects, it will be great; however, if they think of it as the way to get some revenue, then forget about it," an entrepreneur who preferred not to give his name pointed out.
Big companies that have invested big on Fiware admit that even if Europe is in a weak position compared to the Americans, it's better to do it late than never.

Media Advertising Agencies. A media promoting organization handle an assortment of errands for a customer. Yet its primary obligation is to make the correct messages to the correct media outlets. Extend the best organization picture as could reasonably be expected. This not just encourages the publicizing office to concentrate on their center abilities, yet in addition causes them get the best outcomes even in those fragments where they don't have a nearness.
Media promoting offices have an entire range of individuals who perform different specific undertakings. For instance, there is an undeniable customer adjusting division that is the contact point between the customer and the office. This division addresses with and talks about a customer's issues and after that passes on the data to an imaginative group. This group plans advertisements, logos, organization messages, and so forth.
The execution group at that point takes the completed items and make a media intend to discharge the organization plans and data to the general population. The execution group by and large works intimately with a written work group to ensure that the organization's message is clear and gets the best possible introduction to increase positive open and organization input.
This group at that point passes on the necessities of the customers to the innovative group, which plans the promotions. There is frequently an advertising group in a promotion organization, to take a gander at different. This sort of exposure is increasing more noticeable quality.
This not just encourages the publicizing office to concentrate on their center abilities, yet in addition causes them get the best outcomes even in those fragments where they don't have a nearness.
Throughout the years, there has been an exceptional change in the media scene. Not over 10 years prior, there were not very many alternatives for somebody who needed to publicize. There were daily papers, magazines, radio and TV. Today, there are various decisions accessible, including telephone publicizing (telemarketing and SMS promotions) and Internet publicizing.
Web publicizing has every one of the components that the conventional ad media offers independently. It is an amalgamation and meeting of different media. Web showcasing is one of the quickest developing techniques for publicizing in the media promoting.
So it is basic that a commercial give data that is important to the group of onlookers. At exactly that point would the gathering of people hear it out. It is likewise fundamental that the gatherings of people see the notice and decipher it in a path ideal to the promoter.


Leaders from the Texas chapters of Marijuana Policy Project and NORML share insight from their statewide advocacy training sessions on how to talk cannabis reform with state representatives.
Texas is known for being staunchly conservative, but 2017 is shaping up to be a major year for cannabis reform in the Lone Star State. There are multiple bills circulating through the state legislative sessions, including House Bill 81, a measure that would decriminalize the possession of up to an ounce of marijuana. There's also a push to expand the Texas Compassionate Use Program, an extremely limited medical marijuana system that currently only allows low-THC cannabis use for intractable epilepsy treatment.
At first glance, highly-conservative Texas doesn't seem like the proper breeding ground for cannabis advocacy, but organizations like NORML Texas and the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP) are paving the way to a greener future. With the state government in the midst of the 85th Texas Legislative session, which adjourns on May 29, cannabis advocates are using this small window of opportunity to push for as much change as possible.
According to Heather Fazio, the Texas Political Director at MPP, advocates are primarily focused on House Bill 81, taking an incremental approach that will lead to more expansive legalization in the future.
In order to spread this budding cannabis movement, the MPP and NORML have worked together to host advocacy training sessions across the state. Their "advocacy tour" has spanned nine cities in just five weekends, providing over 300 Texans with the tools needed to effectively fight for cannabis reform.
These advocacy training sessions have a straightforward, yet tremendously informative curriculum. Participants are given handouts detailing the current state of cannabis reform in Texas, the bills that are currently on the legislative table, and how to effectively talk to their representatives. The documents are packed with powerful talking points on the House Bill 81 and the expansion of the medical program, as well as an advocate worksheet to help retain information and prepare for future legislative meetings.
The cannabis movement in Texas has gained support from all sides of the political spectrum. Progressive organizations like the ACLU and NORML Texas have found themselves on the same team as the Republican Liberty Caucus and Republicans Against Marijuana Prohibition. This collaborative effort reflects the growing acceptance of cannabis throughout the state, both by the government and its constituents.
Even those who are indifferent or opposed to cannabis reform can be educated on the ways that prohibition negatively impacts their lives. One primary talking point that Deuvall raises is how people's tax dollars are being used. The state of Texas spends around $748 million in taxpayer money a year on cannabis prohibition, he says, something that any true conservative should staunchly stand against.
While some advocates have an understandable itch for full-scale legalization, the pro-cannabis organizations in Texas know to take any progressive step they can. What these advocacy training sessions offer are valuable lessons that can be utilized during this year's legislative cycle and beyond. With the Texas cannabis movement in full swing, decriminalization and a more expansive medical system are right on the horizon.
As these advocacy training sessions have shown, the best way to shed the stigmatization of cannabis is by reaching out to your local representatives. By empowering the Texas cannabis community to get involved on the bureaucratic level, these local organizations are leading the way towards legalization in the Lone Star State.


[Leon]'s Anavi Infrared Pi Hat does exactly what you think it should do. There's an IR receiver, two IR LEDs, and UART pins for debugging. That's all you need to control infrared doohickies over the Internet, and [Leon] wrapped it up in a nice neat package that's the same size as a Raspberry Pi Zero. Add on some documentation and you have something we rarely see: a project meant to be used by other people.
This focus on allowing people to actually use what [Leon] created can lead to only one cynical conclusion: he's probably selling these things somewhere. The cynic is never surprised. [Leon] has a crowdfunding campaign going, that's over 400% funded with a month to go. That's okay, though: all the design files are available so if you want to build your own without supporting people who build useful devices, have at it.
Admit it, you love looking at silicon die shots, especially when you have help walking through the functionality of all the different sections. This one's really easy for a couple of reasons. [electronupdate] pointed his microscope at the die on a WS2812.
The WS2812 is an addressible RGB LED that is often called a Neopixel (a brand name assigned to it by Adafruit). The part is packaged in a 5×5 mm housing with a clear window on the front. This lets you easily see the diodes as they are illuminated, but also makes it easy to get a look at the die for the logic circuit controlling the part.
This die is responsible for reading data as it is shifted in, shifting it out to the next LED in the chain, and setting each of the three diodes accordingly. The funcitonality is simple which makes it a lot easier to figure out what each part of the die contributes to the effort. The diode drivers are a dead giveaway because a bonding wire connected to part of their footprint. It's quite interesting to hear that the fourth footprint was likely used in testing — sound off in the comments if you can speculate on what those tests included.
We had no trouble spotting logic circuitry. This exploration doesn't drill down to the gate level like a lot of [Ken Shirriff's] silicon reverse engineering but the process that [electronupdate] uses is equally fun. He grabs a tiny solar cell and scopes it while the diodes are running to pick up on the PWM pattern used to fade each LED. That's a neat little trick to keep in your back pocket for use in confirming your theories about clock rate and implementation when reverse engineering someone else's work.
You might think that if you have a need to measure the speed of a projectile that is too fast for your high-speed camera, you would have to invest in some significantly expensive equipment.
That was the problem facing [Nick Moore], and the solution he arrived at is extremely elegant in its simplicity. He's arranged a pair of foil tapes in the path of the projectile, as it passes through them they break, and he measures the time between those breaks. The clever bit though lies not in the tapes, but in how he measures the timing. Instead of relying on a lab stuffed with equipment, he's using his computer sound card. The outputs send a tone through each tape to the inputs, and using Audacity he can capture both tones and measure the time between the end of each one on left and right channels.
In the video below the break he demonstrates measuring the speed of a supersonic particle at 496.5 metres per second, which for such relatively simple equipment is rather an achievement. He could certainly improve his resolution by increasing the sampling frequency, but we are guessing that the choice of 48 kHz owes much to the quality of his sound card. Still, to achieve this with such a relatively basic piece of equipment is a neat achievement.
[James Tate] is starting up a project to make a "Super Reverse-Engineering Tool". First on his list? A simple NAND flash reader, for exactly the same reason that Willie Sutton robbed banks: because that's where the binaries are.
As it stands, [James]'s first version of this tool is probably not what you want to use if you're dumping a lot of NAND flash modules. His Arduino code reads the NAND using the notoriously slow digital_read() and digital_write() commands and then dumps it over the serial port at 115,200 baud. We're not sure which is the binding constraint, but neither of these methods are built for speed.
Instead, the code is built for hackability. It's pretty modular, and if you've got a NAND flash that needs other low-level bit twiddling to give up its data, you should be able to get something up and working quickly, start it running, and then go have a coffee for a few days. When you come back, the data will be dumped and you will have only invested a few minutes of human time in the project.
With TSOP breakout boards selling for cheap, all that prevents you from reading out the sweet memory contents of a random device is a few bucks and some patience. If you haven't ever done so, pull something out of your junk bin and give it a shot! If you're feeling DIY, or need to read a flash in place, check out this crazy solder-on hack. Or if you can spring for an FTDI FT2233H breakout board, you can read a NAND flash fast using essentially the same techniques as those presented here.
Every year, sometime in March, the world's preeminent 3D printing enthusiasts gather in the middle of nowhere This is MRRF, the Midwest RepRap Festival. It's only two weeks away. You need to come. Get your (free) tickets here. I'll be there, and Hackaday is proud to once again sponsor the festival.
I need to backtrack a bit to explain why MRRF is so great. I go to a lot of cons. Maker Faire is getting old, CES was a horror show. Even DEF CON is losing its charm, and all of these cons have the same problem: there are too many people. MRRF does not have this problem. For one weekend a year, everyone who is anyone in the 3D printing world makes it out to the middle of Indiana. This is a small meetup, but that's what makes it great. It's a bunch of dorks dorking around for an entire weekend.
If that's not enough to convince you, take a look at the previous coverage Hackaday has done from MRRF. The PartDaddy, an 18-foot-tall 3D printer will be there. The world's largest 3D printed trash can will not. Prusa is coming in from Prague, E3D is coming in from England. Judging from past years, this is where the latest advancements in home 3D printing first appear. This is not an event to miss.
You might be wondering why the world's greatest 3D printer festival is in the middle of nowhere. Goshen, Indiana is the home of SeeMeCNC, builders of the fantastic Rostock Max 3D delta bot. MRRF is hosted by the SeeMeCNC guys. If you're exceptionally lucky, you'll get to go over to the shop and see a demo of their milling machine that cools parts by ablation.
If you've used Linux from the early days (or, like me, started with Unix), you didn't have to learn as much right away and as things have become more complex, you can kind of pick things up as you go. If you are only starting with Linux because you are using a Raspberry Pi, became unhappy with XP being orphaned, or you are running a cloud server for your latest Skynet-like IoT project, it can be daunting to pick it all up in one place.
Recently my son asked me how do you make something run on a Linux box even after you log off. I thought that was a pretty good question and not necessarily a simple answer, depending on what you want to accomplish.
You want to launch something you know will take a long time.
You run something, realize it is going to take a long time, and want to log off without stopping it.
You want to write a script or other kind of program that detaches itself and keeps running (known as a daemon).
You want some program to run all the time, even if you didn't log in after a reboot.

Q: EC2 1/2 status checks while replacing the volume So, I an EC2 instance and 2 volume with 8GB and 50GB. Initially 8GB was mounted to root device (/dev/sda1). I intended to switch root to 50GB. Here are the steps, I followed:
- Stop the instance
- De-attach 8GB
- De-attach 50GB
- Attach 50GB to instance using /dev/sda1
- Start the instance

Now, I see status checks 1/2 passed. I can not login to machine. Can anyone explain how to fix this issue? I stopped and started the instance again but it did not work. Please help.

A: *

*Stop the instance

*Detach the 8GB

*Snapshot the 8GB

*Create a new volume using the snapshot created of desired capacity, .e.g 50GB

*Attach the new volume using /dev/sda1

*Boot the instance

*Grow the file system on /dev/sda1 (exact command depends on the file system, e.g. for xfs it is xfs_growfs), otherwise you will see only 8GB as available capacity, though the disk you created is larger.

*Optionally move data from the other 50GB to the new disk, and detach it

Co-deposition of two materials that are insoluble to each other causes self-assembly, resulting in a large interface area. This may bring about the reduction of the interface resistance for the pairs of electrode and solid electrolyte materials of batteries. We co-deposited LiCoO2 and Li0.33La0.56TiO3 (LLTO) on Al2O3 (0001) substrates by the dual-PLD technique. The XRD profile of the co-deposited film shows two diffraction peaks that could be assigned to LiCoO2 (003) and LLTO (112) planes, implying occurrence of self-assembly.
Fig. 1: Schematics of the configuration of deposition (a), SEM images (b), and XRD 2θ−ω profiles (c) of three films deposited on Al2O3 (0001) substrates : LiCoO2 (above), LLTO (center), and LiCoO2 + LLTO (below).
With the increasing need of miroenergy storage devices in regards to the miniaturization of biomedical implants, sensors or integrated circuits, small size integrated batteries are required. Planar all-solid state Li-ion microbatteries appear as possible candidate.
To increase the volumetric energy density of these microbatteries, new advanced concepts are proposed, based on 3D batteries. By enlarging the active surface area, these batteries ensure a relatively high current and power capacity. In GREMAN laboratory, by achieving 3D structure by Deep Reactive Ionic Etching (DRIE) to enlarge the active surface of the microbatteries, Silicon nanoparticles (SiNPs) are coated using a liquid route method to investigate the performance-related improvements that these created 3D silicon structure (versus planar) can impart. Such preparation method, very simple, fast and low-cost, compared with vacuum deposition techniques used as CVD, PVD is found to provide a conformal coating all over the wall of the 3D trenches.
The effect of these structures on the electrochemical properties is studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV). The results obtained from other characterizations as SEM and EDX post-mortem analysis confirm that only SiNPs layers are involved in lithiation/delithiation process. These SiNPs layers onto 3D structure have an impact on the electrochemical performances and its preparation and deposition improvement is a key component to maximize performances in Li-ion microbatteries.

The Apart MDS microphone discussion system is a highly flexible small to medium size tabletop discussion system. This easy to set up and to easy to use audio system is the perfect solution for meeting rooms, board rooms and medium conference rooms. This discussion system consists of a chairman unit (MDS.CHAIR) and up to 19 delegate units (MDS.DEL). The connection interface (MDS.INT) is located at the beginning of the microphone chain.
This MDS system has a unique circuit loop design with an easy set-up using standard CAT5 cables for linking up to 20 units in a daisy chain (every microphone and switching adaptor can be located anywhere in the loop). When the chairman presses the mute button, only the chairman unit will be active and all delegates will be muted and deactivated. The delegates can press a button to talk into the flexible gooseneck microphone (no mute function).
The MDS.INT easily connects to any pre-amplifier or matrix with a MIC input with wide gain control (about +20dB of gain needed), allowing you to control the volume and/or use the record output for recording the meeting. Combined with the CMX20T ceiling speakers or MASK4 cabinet loudspeakers, you will have an astonishing voice clarity!

Britain's Johnson sets off on post-election Brexit mission
Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson delivers a speech at 10 Downing Street in London, Britain, 13 December 2019. Britons went to the polls for a general election on 12 December 2019, which the Conservative Party led by Johnson has won with an overall majority. [EPA-EFE/ANDY RAIN]
Prime Minister Boris Johnson will unveil a new government Monday (16 December) that wields a sweeping mandate to take Britain out of the European Union after years of acrimonious debate.
Johnson's simple promise to "get Brexit done" resonated in a snap election Thursday that became a re-run of Britain's 2016 EU membership referendum.
A narrow majority had then opted to quit the European project. UK leaders have been arguing about how – or even whether – to cut ties with the other 27 nations in the bloc ever since.
The arguments were settled when Johnson's Conservative party secured its biggest majority in the House of Commons since the heyday of Margaret Thatcher in the 1980s.
The main opposition Labour party was relegated to its worst defeat since before World War II.
Parliament will now be free to approve the divorce deal Johnson struck with Brussels so that Britain can leave without any more delays on January 31.
"The first piece of legislation new MPs will vote on will be the (EU-UK) Withdrawal Agreement Bill," a government source said.
"We must repay the public's trust by getting Brexit done."
Brexit battle over: new battles begin
After three and a half years there is finally closure. There will be no second referendum. The UK will leave the European Union in January. But as one battle ends, a host of new fronts open up.
Locking in Labour votes
Johnson is only expected to tinker around the edges of his current government and conduct a real overhaul once the first stage of Brexit is safely out of the way.
London and Brussels will then have to set off on yet more negotiations aimed at striking a comprehensive trade agreement by the end of 2020.
EU officials caution that such deals usually take years to complete.
Johnson has warned repeatedly that he will not seek an extension that would keep Britain tied to EU rules without having a say in how the bloc is run.
Failure to reach a compromise deal will have unknown repercussions for financial markets and economic growth.
But Johnson's immediate focus is on a new government agenda that Queen Elizabeth II will read out in parliament Thursday.
The programme is expected to focus heavily on social spending aimed at locking in the future votes of traditional Labour supporters who switched sides and backed the Tories this time around.
Johnson tore up the Conservative rulebook and committed himself to heavy social spending during the five-week election campaign.
Those promises blunted the impact of Labour's own message on traditional election issues such as healthcare.
The government source said Johnson's new programme will include Britain's first legal commitment to boost spending on the state-funded National Health Service (NHS) by a set amount.
The pledge is at least partially aimed at dispelling concerns that the principle of free care for all will be ended and that the NHS will be opened up to "Big Pharma" as part of a post-Brexit trade deal with US President Donald Trump.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn claimed to have evidence that Johnson's government has conducted secret talks about the NHS with Washington.
Both Trump and Johnson have denied the charge and the issue ultimately failed to help Labour at the ballot box.
But polls show the NHS remains a top concern for British voters of all political stripes.
EU leaders prepare for Brexit after Johnson win
European leaders will charge EU negotiator Michel Barnier on Friday (13 December) with negotiating a close trade deal with Britain, after Prime Minister Boris Johnson's apparent election win set the stage for an orderly Brexit.

...I was going to blog every day while at SHOT Show.
Even though I've been here before, I always over-estimate how much I can get done and under-estimate how exhausted I am when the show closes each day.
Got to shoot my first gun with a "giggle switch" as Mrs Mom calls it. A Daniel Defense ISR in .300 blackout. Only shot a few rounds in full auto, but it was giggle worthy.
Shot a KRISS sub-machine gun in .45 ACP on full auto. Cool, but not as cool as the DD.
We made some connections for future blog interviews - an Olympic shooter and the World Fast Draw Champion.
Mez is currently at the State of the Industry Dinner and will be writing up a post on that. This year, more than any other year is going to be very important, I think. I'm really interested to see what he's got to say when he gets back.
Next year, GunDiva. Next year. I am getting a hall pass from The Queen, I am cashing in some frequent flyer miles and hotel points, and I will be the one playing with giggle switches and meeting gunnie royalty.
So glad you are having fun!!
Glad to hear your gala of guns is going great! Love the updates! Rockem sockem!
I want to hear more about you 'Giggle Switch.' I think my wife has one, too.
We're Going to SHOT Show!
