Anyone else having the issue with the resistance and the crank adapter shearing? When i put the outer casing on over the thresher blades the whole thing seems to not budge.
Can you send the original CAD files? Like STEP or IGES?
I was having some fitting issues with SirHa_Getribe4 fitting in with one of the gears so I had to scale it down to 64% and then cut a lot out to make it better fit. It has a lot of friction but with the gear ratio it should help turn with the crank.
Currently printing this out on my Anet A8. Had to print everything 0.7x scale so it would fit, so a bit smaller.
Wonder if it'll sound different, higher pitched maybe?
Printing out the handles now, rotors are next.
What size bearings did you use?
Hay, I have the same printer, could you tell me if it worked with the scaling down?
I have not had any luck. The tolerances were just too tight.
I had to file down a lot of parts, no luck.
How long does this take to print and how much filament require?
A lot, and I mean a lot of filament. Plenty of Patience. And around 72 Hours total print time, depending on speed and other factors.
Thanks for sharing, I am curious what were your difficulties when designing the machine?
Did you reuse something from previous designs to get kickstarted and have reliably working components in place?
Wiil it work If I scale it down like 2 or 3 Times???
Genius idea, I have to give this guy props for designing all of these pieces to fit together. I will make sure to post again when I make it. It shouldn't take long since I have 3 printers.
Is this small enough to print well on a build volume of 8, 6, 12 inches?
No, unless you scale. It might not function right at that small of a scale though.
Nah, the main body piece you'll need at least 10x 5inches and the piece with the handle, you'll need at least about 14 by 5 inches. He does include a back cover without the handle tho. You can't print it upright either, it is almost impossible and it would not be structually integral to withstand the enormous amount of friction.
Hi there! I'm trying to print this on an UP! box, and unfortunately the support you put on the large part is too thin to be printed, but thick enough that the slicer won't generate support for itself. Could you please upload a version without the support built in?
I saw the V2 of the siren and I would print it but I don't have the metal bearings so I'm printing this instead. I'm printing at 65% scale because that is what fits on my Robo 3D. Will it still work?
There are a few makes that were scaled. So it might work!
First of all, GREAT DESIGN and thanks for sharing it!!
Im printing this on my MB Rep2 and using Simplify3D as the slicer.. can you tell me if one end of SirHa_Kurbel1 is supposed to be totally solid or should it be infilled as normal settings?
how long was print time all up ?
Thanks for your positive response!
You have the same setting as i do! I also use Simplify3D since around 3 months or so. And to be honest - i don't want to use MakerWare again. S3D is awesome!
The problem with the thin walls on the part SirHa_Gehaeuse2 is because MakerWare seems not to calculate the nozzle size. So all peaces are a little bit bigger than they were designed. Thats the reason why all the parts in my design have some spacing between. But if you print it with MakerWare it will fit together well and - as you already mentioned - also print the 0.4mm thick walls.
And for the part SirHa_Kurbel1 you are also right to print it solid. It's the weakest point on this design. So if you slice it with Simplify3D you should print the top with 100% infill. Same for the Part SirHa_Kurbel2.
And by the way: I'm going to publish a newer version of this siren this weekend. It will use metal bearings to reduce friction, will look slightly better, will have a better connection between the crank and the first gear, will have a finger protection on the top gap, different rotor design AND will be designed to be printed with Simplify3D!
So if you are interested - i will upload the new one as a remix of this version!
I added a remix that slices the two housing parts for printing on a 5.5" x 8.5" print bed. I'm surprised no one else has done this as popular as this thing is. I have successfully used these parts to assemble a working siren. The housing with the handle was divided into 3 parts so it can lay flat on the bed. Even dividing that part into two pieces was still too big for my print bed. Thanks for the design, it really is LOUD!
I'm having a terrible time getting the bolt that holds the handle to thread into the crank. This is the Kurbel2 part threaded into the Kurbel1 part. I already broke the threads off of the bolt and am going to reprint both parts. Anyone else run into this problem? I scaled down the entire model (all parts) to 75% to speed up printing, but am going to have to do a lot of filing and sanding to get everything to freely spin. Maybe scaling just the bolt down to 74% will make it easier to spin? I had increased the infill and number of shells on both parts to make them stronger, so maybe that made a tighter fit for the threads?
Additionally, is the intent that the Kurbel3 spins feely on the bolt? Right now I had to gently tap the Kurbel2 bolt into the Kurbel3 handle bar grip, but as I said above, these were nearly impossible to thread into the Kurbel1 crank.
That wasn't the issue, it was the part being too tight to fit. I printed the bolt at 74%, the crank at 75%, and the grip at 76% and now the grip can freely spin and the bolt threads went together fairly easily. Thanks.
"Quiet surprised?" Was that a pun? Well done, op, well done.
Video Video Video, i want to hear how it souds!!
Are there assembly instructions? Did I miss them?
Nice! I can point this towards my neighbors (aka The Dog Grooming place next me) and scare the hell out the dogs.
in the background. is there a cat?
Are the horn parts the same as your previous brushless version?
Awesome! Did you design the knurling and fasteners in AutoCAD?
It does fit 200x200 platforms..... You either can't use a slicer or are not orienting the model properly. As for it being functional, obviously it wouldn't be nearly as good at 60%. I work with aircraft frames right now and when you scale somethibg down, the particles and atoms in the air don't scale... So you get very different dynamics. It won't be as loud, if it even works at all, it might just hum and never sing. You can also chop the meshes or use CURA and sort of hack it by delete bottom Z height in settibgs, then flip it and use the inverse of the total after subtracting the first cut. Or just sit down and study CAD (nurbs and poly modeling) and grab a free program to edit, yourself; If you don't already have Max/Mata or Autocad. The round parts like the siren blades should fit your printer without such work. And a note - try to get rectangle platforms, not square. It allows you to rotate 45% to fit, without paying for the extra space to make it a square.
At 100% it will definitely not fit at 200mm x 200mm platforms. Gehaeuse2 and Gehaeuse1a have 225.357mm x 148.5mm dimensions. Also I can tell at 75% the sound is perfectly loud.
I made a functional one at 75% size (That will fit well with your platform size). The only problem to me was the tensile force of GetrAdapt which broke apart every time. I decided to join it with Kurbel1. Now it's rock-solid.
I'm not sure. The spaces between the parts are designed for a 0.4mm nozzle. But there is already a functional made that was printed smaller than my original.
By change, would you have support free parts ? usualy, included supports are a pain in the a.. to remove.
will let you know when printer.
The supports are only on the SirHa_Gehaeuse2 file and are built in, so you don't have to print the model with supports or rafts. These supports were really easy to remove.
How big is this device supposed to be? In my software the rotor parts are about 15 cm in diameter, which seems quite large. Is that correct?
Is there any video of demonstration ?
There's now a video demo here.
the gearbox has a high transmission. For one Turn with the crank the siren turns 49 times. That means if you turn it around in one second you get around 3000 rpm.
The problem is that its very hard to keep it running that fast and keep the rpm constant. And also you get a lot of friction when the parts move that fast - and this can cause the rotor to jam up if there is not enough lubricant.
in previous challenges they have made exceptions so lets hope they will do that this time as well.
We will know it soon!

Sunlight could have killed this abandoned albino pooch but getting his latest sunglasses he has become a social media sensation. The sunny days are in Australia and the opposite is UK's weather. But literally speaking, Australian sunny days are really scorching for common animals, but this particular rare albino dog could face even worse than that. His skin is very sensitive to sunlight and eyes would not even bear it.
He goes with the name Sherlock the schnauzer suffering from a rare form of canine albinism which would not allow him harsh Australian sun for long otherwise he will get burned.
Sherlock is a Melbourne based pooch and is also could develop a fatal skin cancer so he must slather on typical doggy sunscreen and keep his sunglasses on while going out.
This is a very rare genetic condition which creates a shortage of melanin in the skin tissues, that also gives us insight that this rare albino pooch was born with pure white fur and electric blue eyes despite the fact that his mother is a normal black schnauzer.
When Sherlock was just 10 months old, his previous owner had abandoned him. He had been placed under the care of dog-mad Netta McKay who is a proud animal mum for a decade. She fell in love with Sherlock as soon as she saw him and adopted him permanently.
Netta is a foster mum to many different dogs. But she liked Sherlock a lot for his tender nature and uniqueness. He is a relaxed and chilled dog with funniest little personality.
Netta said: "I had absolutely no intention of keeping Sherlock.
"I foster lots of different dogs and I always do the right thing and send them off to their new home.
"But I just fell in love with him instantly, there was something about him. I didn't know what to expect but I just knew he belonged to our family.
"He is such a relaxed and chilled-out dog and has the funniest little personality.
Albinism in dogs in general and particularly in pooches can lead to serious vision and hearing problems. But in the case of Sherlock he has no big issues to tackle these days. He is absolutely fine without symptoms.
When it comes to his sunglasses – dubbed 'doggles' – have even helped him gather up thousands of fans on Instagram and Facebook.
More Info: Sherlock is on Facebook & Instagram follow him.

Q: nginx with angular 4 i'm having trouble for my config here is how i want to work
mydomain.com -> redirect to correct language : mydomain.com/en/ or mydomain.com/fr/
I have two angular build with i18n, one for each language.
the redirection with language works, but direct links with angular 2 not :

if some of you know this, i'm just stuck there, i'm a nginx begginner :/

A: The second location block is wrong. You probably need everything to be directed to index.html (other than resource files). You might try something like this:
map $http_accept_language $lang {
    default en;
    ~*^fr fr;
}

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name domain.com www.domain.com;

Fox Orders Paranormal Comedy Pilot Starring Adam Scott, Craig Robinson
Actors will also serve as executive producers on new project
Joe Otterson | January 26, 2017 @ 2:40 PM
Fox has ordered a pilot for a paranormal comedy series starring Craig Robinson and Adam Scott, TheWrap has learned.
Currently titled "Ghosted," the single-camera series would follow a cynical skeptic (Robinson) and a genius true believer in the paranormal (Adam Scott), are recruited by The Bureau Underground to look into the rampant unexplained activity in Los Angeles, all while uncovering a larger mystery that could threaten the existence of the human race.
Robinson and Scott will serve as executive producers on the project, along with Naomi Scott, Oly Obst and Mark Schulman.
Also Read: Bryan Singer to Direct Fox's X-Men Pilot
Tom Gormican will write and executive produce the pilot, while Kevin Etten will executive produce and serve as showrunner. 3Arts and Gettin' Rad Productions will produce in association with Twentieth Century Fox Television.
The series sounds like a comedy version of "X-Files," which might hold over fans of that series while the network works out schedules with series creator Chris Carter and stars Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny.
This is the third comedy pilot Fox has ordered this season. The network previously ordered "Thin Ice" from "New Girl" creator Liz Merriwether, which follows a woman who travels to Antarctica and must contend with a crew of misfits.

Earlier this week, Fox ordered "Linda From HR," a single-camera comedy about a human resources rep whose life descends into a dangerous tailspin of balancing work life, home life and a secret that could unravel everything.
17 Breakout TV Stars to Watch for In 2017, From Ricky Whittle to Rose Leslie (Photos)
Another year, another crop of TV stars ready to steal audiences' hearts and attentions. Here are 17 up-and-comers we're keeping an eye on in 2017.
Camila Mendes, "Riverdale"
The entire cast of The CW's teen drama are about to become huge stars, but our safe bet is on Mendes, the new Veronica Lodge, the troubled bad girl whose arrival in town coincides with some big changes for Archie and his friends.
Corey Hawkins, "24: Legacy"
Stepping into Kiefer Sutherland's shoes is no small task, but could reap big rewards for Hawkins, who's been poised for a breakout since last summer's hit "Straight Outta Compton."
Sonequa Martin-Green, "Star Trek Discovery"
We don't know anything about the new "Star Trek" series ... but it's a new "Star Trek" series, and if you're the star of it, you're going to have a big breakout moment.
Ricky Whittle, "American Gods"
Bringing a sizable fanbase from "The 100" with him, Whittle is set to endear a whole new set of rabid fans in Bryan Fuller's Neil Gaiman adaptation.
Rachel Keller, "Legion"
After impressing Noah Hawley on "Fargo," the showrunner is giving Keller an even bigger breakout platform, as the female lead opposite Dan Stevens in FX's X-Men superhero series.
Finn Jones, "Iron Fist"
Marvel's latest superhero will do his best to keep up with the likes of "Daredevil," "Jessica Jones" and "Luke Cage," all of whom have been breakout stars and critical and fan favorites.
Adria Arjona, "Emerald City"
"Wizard of Oz" fans, get ready to meet your new Dorothy. From director Tarsem, NBC's new fantasy drama should be visually stunning if nothing else.
Jermaine Fowler, "Superior Donuts"
CBS has been high on the stand-up comedian and retooled this sitcom for him twice before ordering it to series - time for the world to see Fowler's talents.
Rose Leslie, "The Good Fight"
This "Game of Thrones" alum no longer has to share the spotlight with a cast of thousands as the lead of CBS All Access' "The Good Wife" spinoff.
Jacob Lofland, "The Son"
As the younger version of the central character, Lofland is central to the sprawling Texas-set family drama, setting the groundwork for his character to grow up to be Pierce Brosnan.
Allison Tolman, "Downward Dog"
After her impressive turn on "Fargo," it's about time Tolman got her own show - hopefully that talking pooch doesn't hog all the limelight.
Austin P. Mckenzie, "When We Rise"
The Broadway alum plays a young LGBT activist in Dustin Lance Black's chronicle of the early days of the gay movement.
Logan Browning, "Dear White People"
The Justin Simien movie made Tessa Thompson a breakout star, and Browning is set to take over the role in the Netflix series.
Dylan Minnette, "13 Reasons Why"
The "Goosebumps" star plays the lead in the long-gestating Jay Asher YA novel, from producer Selena Gomez.
Pearl Mackie, "Doctor Who"
The new Doctor's Companion should prepare herself to become a star. Just ask her predecessors Karen Gillan and Jenna Coleman.
Freddie Stroma, "Time After Time"
After endearing audiences on "UnREAL," Stroma takes a lead role as H.G. Wells in Kevin Williamson's "Time After Time."
Jodie Comer, "The White Princess"
The star of the sequel to "The White Queen" could find herself becoming the next Rebecca Ferguson.

Q: WCF service hosted through console need to be rehosted every time on machine restart Not sure why service is showing a weired behavior, Any help will be really appreciated.
Thanx

A: What does rehosted mean? Does it mean that you have to run console application each time you restart the machine? That is obvious behavior - when application doesn't run, it cannot host WCF service. If you want your service to be automatically hosted after machine restart you have to host it in Windows service (and set the service to automatically start).

Significant convective activity in the area calls for the pilot to exercise conservative judgment and a review of the game plan.
The Beechcraft A36 provides a comfortable cross-country environment while demanding a knowledgable pilot and, as with any aircraft, thoughtful IFR planning.
Many VFR, and inexperienced IFR, pilots mistakenly believe that an instrument rating allows you to launch into "weather." After all, instrument pilots have been trained to fly on the gages, so making the decision to fly into the clouds shouldn't be difficult.
Veteran IFR pilots understand the complexity of the go/no-go decision. There are weather factors that need to be addressed beforehand, and more involved flight planning techniques to stay safe. Flying in IMC is significantly more than lining up, pushing the go-lever, and climbing into what may be quickly changing conditions, even if the launch time is VFR.
Thoughtful planning for an IFR flight, even a local hop to shoot approaches, is the key to staying safe in less than ideal weather. Having the presence of mind to make judicious game-time decisions and never hesitating to change plans when the situation calls for a retreat—even if that means taxiing off the runway, and going back to the hangar to wait things out.
This also includes creating plans for alternate transportation. It can't be said enough… little airplanes are not the airlines, even when we are flying capable cross-country machines.
Unfortunately, this pilot may not have had the required presence-of-mind for tactical and real-time decisions—the ability to get past the pressure to complete a desired flight, or both.
The 46-year-old auto repair shop owner held a commercial certificate with ratings for airplane single-engine land and instrument airplane. His logbook was never found, so investigators used his most recent FAA second class medical application, dated about seven months before the accident, to estimate his experience. The pilot reported having about 950 hours of total time in all aircraft on that application. In another document the pilot reported his most recent flight review as occurring 18 months before the accident.
Radar summary image for 2115 CDT showing the accident location.
Interestingly, no mention was made by investigators of any recent instrument proficiency check. Nor did they note any local flight instructors who provided training or who volunteered information to investigators. This is unusual in NTSB reports, as investigators generally seek out individuals who knew (or flew) with the accident pilot.
Perhaps this pilot was one of the many aviators who fly under-the-radar so to speak. They are on the fringes of the aviation community; outliers who stay legal, but are never really known by others in the local aviation community. While not necessarily unsafe, it is also not the best way to learn or to hone one's aviation knowledge.
The same was true for his experience with his airplane, a 1977 Beechcraft A36. There was no indication of the pilot's transition training, or past flights, etc. One would have to believe that in small town of 20,000 (where the pilot ran a local business and based his aircraft) some local pilots or instructors at Hale County Airport (KPVW) in Plainview, Texas, would have volunteered information about his aviation experience.
But, with this pilot's experience and certificates, it would be reasonable to assume he could fly an A36, especially since he had owned the aircraft for four years.
About nine months before the accident flight, the NTSB noted the pilot sustained paint damage to his airplane during a night flight east of Pueblo Colorado. He inadvertently flew into heavy rain in a building storm. He claimed not to see the storm on XM weather or outside the aircraft until it was too late. This type of encounter can happen easily at night. But, perhaps the NTSB chose to include this tidbit as an example of the pilot's incomplete understanding of the delay inherent in XM weather, and other similar cockpit weather— which is not real-time. This type of weather information is strategic, not tactical. It is advisory only, and apparently the pilot did not understand this.
On the evening of the accident, at 20:58 CST, the pilot received weather information, using ForeFlight, and filed an IFR flight plan from KPVW to Boerne Stage Field Airport, in Boerne Texas (5C1), 308 miles to the southeast near San Antonio, TX. Onboard were the pilot, his wife and their daughter.
GOES-13 satellite image at 2115 CDT shows the severity of the rapidly moving storm that caused the demise of an unsuspecting pilot.
There was serious weather to the west and northwest of KPVW. A severe thunderstorm had developed south of a curving cold front and a squall line formed just west of the airport. Although the sun was setting, the approaching storm should have been visible to the pilot both visually, and on his tablet. Several witnesses mentioned to investigators that they stepped outside just to see the clouds of the approaching storm.
Not only was the storm visible, but it was clearly noted as a possibility in the TAF covering the departure time for the flight and depicted on the current radar charts. SIGMETs, AIRMETs, severe thunderstorm watch and warning information, along with information in the area forecasts should have also been warnings for the pilot.
Weather towards their destination was better, albeit still conducive to rain showers or thunderstorms near areas of low pressure, but little or no weather was showing up on radar to the southeast.
KLBB WSR-88D reflectivity for the 0.5-degree elevation scan initiated at 2118 CDT with the lightning data and the unmistakable pattern of a gust front.
During this time, the current weather at KPVW had east winds at four knots, 10 miles visibility, and clear skies. The automated system noted distant lightning between 10 and 30 miles from the center of the airport.
As the pilot taxied from the ramp to runway 22, one of the witnesses watching the approaching storm was surprised anyone would be taking off with the storm approaching the airport. The witnesses reported seeing the airplane accelerate down the runway, climb into the air while making a sharp left turn before heading straight down. The engine was at full-throttle. A Garmin 496 GPS, which was removed from the wreckage, indicated the airplane only got 80 feet above the ground with a groundspeed of 86 knots. There were no survivors in the ensuing impact.
Investigators determined there was a gust front over the airport at the time of the accident. Gust fronts are nothing to fool with. They can create severe turbulence and wind shear. They can also have a rolling motion as they move across the ground. Getting caught in a strong downdraft can cause an aircraft, which has just left terra firma, to be forced back down in a violent fashion. I believe this is what occurred.
Further evidence of potential wind shear and turbulence is in the KPVW AWOS report recorded 10 minutes after the accident. It noted winds out of the northwest at 26 knots gusting to 36 knots.
A gust front is generated by the leading edge of cold air from inside the thunderstorm. Both shelf clouds and roller clouds are indicators of its presence.
Like a professional athlete, a pilot needs to have a game plan. In football, it's the plays the coaches have laid out long before game time. Think of this as our what-if planning—risk management strategies that we should always have in place. The big picture that will allow winning the game or making it to our destination.
Then we have tactics—changes to the plays and plans to reflect injuries, and countermeasures the opponent has put into place. As a pilot this should be our thought process while we are still preparing for the flight. The approaching storm, this pilot faced, should have triggered changes to his plans to outplay the storm and its risks. In this case he missed a real opportunity to change the evening's outcome.
Finally, there is real-time. The ball is snapped and some players miss blocks, others fall. The running back needs to react to the real-time situation. He will juke and stiff arm as needed to accomplish his objective—a first down. For the pilot the objective is to complete a safe flight—the ability to understand the situation for what it is and make appropriate changes. In this case it should have been to head back to the hangar, now.
But therein lies the rub. We are human, and we don't wish to disappoint, or perhaps admit to others that we (or our airplane) are not capable of getting us to our destination as planned. All of us with more than a few hundred hours have been in similar situations. It is hard to do, but we need to have the presence of mind to make the right real-time call, even if it means falling short of the first down.

The Latest: Death toll from Iraq ferry sinking rises to 83
This image taken from video provided by Mohammed Issam shows boats trying to rescue people in the Tigris River after a overloaded ferry sank on Thursday, March 21, 2019 near Mosul, Iraq. Col. Hussam Khalil, head of the Civil Defense in the northern Nineveh province, told The Associated Press the accident occurred as scores of people were out in a tourist area celebrating Nowruz, which marks the Kurdish new year and the arrival of spring.

BAGHDAD — The Latest on a ferry that sank in northern Iraq near Mosul, killing dozens of people (all times local):
An Iraqi health official says the death toll from a ferry disaster in the Tigris River near Mosul has climbed to 83.
The ferry, said to have been overloaded, capsized with more than one hundred people on it, many of them women and children who had been celebrating the Kurdish new year and Mother's Day. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to give official statements.
The accident was the worst in recent memory, and the death toll was expected to rise.
Iraqi TV said a court in Mosul detained nine workers operating the ferry and issued an arrest warrant for the owner of the tourist island where it was headed.

Iraqi officials say the death toll from the sinking of a ferry overloaded with people celebrating the Kurdish new year in northern Iraq has risen to 71.
Maj. Gen. Saad Maan, a spokesman for the Interior Ministry, says 71 people died and another 55 have been rescued, including 19 children.
Officials say the ferry sank in the Tigris River near the northern city of Mosul because of a technical problem, and that there weren't many boats in the area to rescue people.
An Iraqi official says a ferry overloaded with people celebrating the Kurdish new year sank in the Tigris river near Mosul, killing at least 40 people.
Col. Hussam Khalil, head of the Civil Defense in the Nineveh province, told The Associated Press that the accident occurred on Thursday as scores of people were out in the tourist area celebrating Nowruz, which marks the Kurdish new year and the arrival of spring.
Khalil says many of the dead were women and children, adding that search operations are still underway.

Expect more subtle anti-Hillary sexism in 2016
America's first female president, brought to you by . . . sexism!...
Expect more subtle anti-Hillary sexism in 2016 America's first female president, brought to you by . . . sexism!... Check out this story on delawareonline.com: http://delonline.us/1cnwA6s
WIL Published 8:17 p.m. ET Jan. 27, 2014
America's first female president, brought to you by . . . sexism!
It's been six years since a heckler yelled "Iron my shirt!" at a Hillary Rodham Clinton campaign event shortly before the New Hampshire primary. Since MSNBC's Chris Matthews called Clinton "Nurse Ratched" and commented on her "cackle." And since a guest on Bill O'Reilly's Fox News show lamented that a female president would be undermined by "PMS and mood swings."
If Clinton runs again, it's doubtful that we'll see the same level of sexist vitriol against her. And that makes me, well, a little sad. If the misogyny flows as freely in 2016 as it did during Clinton's first presidential run, the Republicans are doomed. They're already in trouble with female voters, and it wouldn't take much to erode that standing further. So bring on the Todd Akins, the "life's a bitch, don't vote for one" T-shirts, the knee-jerk Hillary haters. This time around, it will only make her stronger.
The world of gender politics has changed in the past six years. The sexist swipes that were normal then won't fly in a post-"war on women" culture. Feminism has hit a tipping point. Stories such as the rape in Steubenville, Ohio, or Mike Huckabee's comments on women's libido and "Uncle Sugar" previously went unremarked outside of feminist circles; now, they're up for widespread public debate.
This month, Time featured a story on Clinton's possible 2016 run, with Clinton represented on the magazine's cover as a giant high heel trampling a tiny man. "Can Anyone Stop Hillary?" the headline asked. The image, which played on old stereotypes reducing women to shoes and clothes, elicited some outrage but also much collective eye-rolling, because it felt like a throwback to another era. Slate's Amanda Hess called it "sexist and hacky"; the Huffington Post and Marie Claire also denounced it. Mommy blogs got mad, too. "Why, when we're talking about a professional, powerful woman," Maria Guido asked on Mommyish.com, "do we oftentimes default to an image of her trampling over men to get to the top? . . . Women read your magazine, you realize this, right?"
Perhaps the biggest change surrounding women's responses to political misogyny comes from the explosion of social media. Women on Twitter and Facebook shared their ire over the Time cover minutes after its release — much as they do every time something truly offensive happens, whether it's objectionable news media coverage, a politician's blunder or a new anti-woman law. But, unlike most Internet outrage, feminist Internet outrage gets results. And it will give the Clinton campaign — and Hillary supporters — a weapon they did not have last time around.
Breast cancer organization Susan G. Komen for the Cure, for example, had to reverse its 2012 decision to pull funding from Planned Parenthood within just three days, thanks to more than 1.3 million angry tweets and thousands of Facebook comments. (Planned Parenthood raised $3 million over the controversy.) The same year, online activism also brought down Virginia's proposed transvaginal ultrasound mandate for women seeking abortions. Feminists started a hashtag campaign on Twitter calling it "state rape," which resulted in widespread media attention; the legislation was eventually amended.
This social-media power wasn't available to feminists during Clinton's first run. Three months after she announced her candidacy in 2007, Twitter broke 60,000 tweets a day; now there are more than 500 million tweets a day from more than 200 million active users. Tumblr was barely a year old in 2008, and Facebook had just hit its first 100 million users. Today, it has more than 1 billion.
Online takedowns of misogyny play a huge part in women's political lives — and their votes. Just recall Rep. Todd Akin, R-Mo., and his comments about "legitimate rape." Or the conservative smearing of Sandra Fluke after she was not allowed to testify at a House hearing on insurance coverage for birth control. Or when Rick Santorum donor Foster Friess suggested to MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell that "the gals" could just put aspirin "between their knees" as a form of birth control.
All these incidents drove the "war on women" rhetoric into the mainstream and influenced women's votes in the 2012 election. A Gallup poll of 12 key swing states released shortly before the election showed that 60 percent of women said government policies on birth control would be extremely or very important in influencing their vote, and majorities of both men and women said Obama would "better handle" that issue.
"Every 2016 campaign will be run in an entirely new landscape, and that's due in large part to the gains women have made politically since 2008, especially the gains made in 2012," EMILY's List President Stephanie Schriock told me. "Republicans voiced their extreme and offensive views, and voters, particularly women voters, responded with one of the largest gender gaps in our nation's history."
Today, if someone tried to start a Facebook group called "Hillary Clinton: Stop Running for President and Make Me a Sandwich" — in 2008, this group had more than 40,000 members — it's hard to imagine it would last long. (In fact, thanks to an online feminist campaign, Facebook now bans gender-based hate speech.) And if an opponent laughed it off when asked "How do we beat the bitch?," as John McCain did at a 2007 event in South Carolina, he or she would be toast.
No doubt, there will be a tremendous amount of sexism lobbed at Clinton if she runs for president. It just won't be as explicit or gleeful as in years past. At least, that's what Republicans are hoping. The GOP is so worried about further alienating female voters that it is sending its candidates to classes on how to talk to women — or, more accurately, how not to talk to them. The anti-abortion organization Susan B. Anthony List put together a training initiative last year for GOP candidates after the litany of controversial statements on women's health, and, according to Politico, the National Republican Congressional Committee is having meetings with Republican aides "to make sure there are no Todd Akin-style gaffes" in 2014.
Remedial how-not-to-be-sexist classes will take the GOP only so far. When misogyny is part of your ideology, it's hard to muzzle. But given the extra precautions, it's likely that the misogyny directed at Clinton will be more sly than straightforward.
Much in the way the right race-baited its base in the last presidential election — Newt Gingrich calling Obama the "food stamp president" comes to mind — Clinton won't be attacked directly for being a woman. Instead we'll see more subtle swipes about her emotions and temperament, like the headline after the Benghazi hearing: "Clinton explodes with rage."
We're getting a glimpse of that approach now with the attacks on Texas gubernatorial hopeful Wendy Davis. Wayne Slater of the Dallas Morning News published an article suggesting that Davis pursued and married her older husband for money. Her now ex-husband, Jeff Davis, told Slater: "It was ironic. I made the last payment [on her Harvard Law School loan], and it was the next day she left." Never mind that Wendy Davis was a well-paid lawyer when she left. The profile also included a quote from an anonymous former colleague who said, "She's not going to let family or raising children or anything else get in her way."
Slater didn't need to call Davis a gold-digging bad mom — he just implied it. And now right-wing conservatives are picking up the story line. Erick Erickson, editor of RedState.com and a Fox News contributor, tweeted,"So Abortion Barbie had a Sugar Daddy Ken."
The good news for Clinton is that it doesn't much matter if the sexism directed at her is tacit or explicit, or if it comes directly from politicians or just conservative talking heads. Because no amount of messaging or training or misdirection will change the fact that the GOP's disdain for women's rights isn't a matter of language or talking points, but of policy. Even if Republicans keep their mouths shut, their platform's attacks on reproductive rights and birth-control coverage, and the disdain for pay equity and anti-violence legislation, will do as much damage as any gaffe.
Of course, feminists can't rely entirely on the GOP shooting itself in the foot. We have to continue doing what we've recently succeeded at: exposing the damaging impact Republican policies have on women.
Still, something tells me that conservatives won't be able to help themselves. After all, The New York Times reported last summer that Republicans are planning an anti-Hillary strategy that will "focus a spotlight on Mrs. Clinton's age."

You stumble awkwardly out of the sterile lighting of your padded cell, helplessly bound in an asylum straightjacket. The twenty or so hulking, deformed monstrosities swarming the hallways immediately ahead pause to look up from mutilating the scattered bodies of their victims and lock their horrible, dead eyes on you. A prompt flashes to the right of your screen: Hold the Left Bumper to run.
I kid you not, this is the situation the next chapter of Dead Space tosses you into literally within the first twenty seconds of the game. EA's flagship of the horror genre returns with equally copious amounts of exhilaratingly intense action and brutal, gory scares. Silent protagonist and reckless power-tool toting engineer Isaac Clarke returns as the unlikely hero in this futuristic thrill ride, only now he's decided to ditch the "silent" part in favor of greatly expanding on his character and its tumultuous psychological struggles.
Clarke and his terrifying saga have returned tenfold, improving on nearly every aspect from the original title. The shocks come faster and harder. The remarkable action sequences beautifully skirt the line between cinematic storytelling and nerve-fraying dexterity tests (How well can you shoot the fuel cell off a gunship while the twenty-foot Tormentor tries to tear you apart in a vacuum?) The zero-gravity puzzles bend your mind in a new dimension. And the violence just grows more deliciously grotesque. This is no game for the faint of heart. This isn't even to mention the hilariously fast-paced and entertaining co-operative engine the multiplayer modes have become. Wander off alone for more than a nanosecond as a human and expect to soon decorate the walls of the encompassing room.
Sadly, however, Dead Space 2 could not have added so many incredible improvements to its horror formula without suffering at least a few small drawbacks. The bursts of action are incredibly fun and it's very nice to place a personality inside that air-tight engineering suit, but it clutters what truly made the original scary. Dead Space's hook was the absolute and oppressive loneliness. Sure, there were other survivors, but you would only see them perhaps once an hour via a static-strained hologram. The other ninety percent of the game was spent slowly wandering alone through the pitch-black, blood-splattered metal hallways, hearing only the dull clunking of your boots and Isaac's ragged breathing bouncing off the tarnished confines of his helmet. That alone is what set you up to jump straight out of your chair when the screaming Necromorph smashed through the vent and pounced on you.

The Worst Game Launches Of All Time
Bugs and glitches and crashes, oh my! In lieu of Cyberpunk 2077 releasing in a messy state, we look back, and round up other notoriously rough video game launches.
By Kurt Indovina on January 14, 2021 at 7:21PM PST
Every once in a while a game comes out that happens to launch in pretty rough shape. Quite often, the game is updated over time and eventually reaches a much more playable state. But those who first picked up the game at launch can be left feeling like they paid full price for a game still in early access.
In the video above, Kurt Indoniva details 11 such games. A few were so bad, their legacy continues to live on--we're talking games like Assassin's Creed Unity and Fallout 76, titles that are often used as a comparison point for when new games have rough launches.
Others, such as No Man's Sky and Star Wars: Battlefront II, have managed to somewhat overcome the memory of what they once were, with their respective studios patching them in experiences that are largely viewed with a positive lens now. And then there are very recent releases, like Anthem and Cyberpunk 2077, which haven't had the chance to showcase whether they'll be successful after their disastrous launches.
As you may have noticed, most of the games in this list are fairly recent. 2012's Diablo III is the oldest of the bunch. This isn't our way of saying that games only have bad launches now and they all released in perfect condition back in the day--far from that. But the most prominent launch disasters have all occurred within the last decade.

NC Missions Offering impacts our state, nation and world
N.C. Baptists have a long history of compassion and generosity that is evidenced by a willingness to give of their time, talents and treasure to advance the gospel.
N.C. Baptists have a long history of compassion and generosity that is evidenced by a willingness to give of their time, talents and treasure to advance the gospel. I've witnessed these efforts firsthand as N.C. Baptists come together in numerous ways to meet physical and spiritual needs in the name of Jesus.
Navigating the brokenness of our world by offering help and hope in Jesus' name is at the heart of the North Carolina Missions Offering (NCMO). This annual offering supports a variety of vital ministries right here in our state with an impact that extends across the country and around the world.
The offering supports disaster relief and the 19 different ministries of Baptists on Mission, church planting, missions partnerships, mission camps, and work in local Baptist associations. This year's offering goal is $2.1 million.
Our offering theme for this year is "Relief for Today. Hope for Tomorrow." based on Romans 15:13, which reads, "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit" (CSB).
Each of the ministries supported by the NCMO are near and dear to my heart. I am passionate about the work that the NCMO supports and have been personally connected with these or similar ministries since becoming a follower of Jesus.
As a new Christian, disaster relief work was one of the first ways I got involved in missions. I'm thankful that here in North Carolina, God has blessed us with what I believe is the best disaster relief team and group of volunteers in the country. They stand ready to respond at a moment's notice in our state and beyond when natural disasters and other calamities strike.
In addition to disaster relief, NCMO supports 18 other ministries of N.C. Baptists on Mission. This includes our fleet of mobile dental and health screening units that are used by churches and associations to reach out to their community. These units are staffed by health professionals who volunteer their time to minister and serve. Every patient who is seen through this ministry not only receives quality care, but they also hear of the saving love of Jesus.
The NCMO also supports the work of church planting in our state. We believe the local church is God's "plan A" for reaching a lost world, and we need more churches to reach more people in North Carolina. Even if every lost person in North Carolina came to one of our churches on any given Sunday, our churches would not be able to host them all. This vital work provides resources and training for prospective church planters and for churches to develop a church planting culture.
Your gifts to the NCMO also support numerous domestic and international partnerships that regularly send teams to serve in a variety of ways. In the United States, we serve in the Appalachian coalfields, Hawaii, Pennsylvania, the Rocky Mountains, Vermont and all across North Carolina. Globally, we serve in places like Armenia, the Bahamas, Cuba, Guatemala, Haiti, Hungary, Kenya, Romania, South Africa and elsewhere.
As a former missionary, we value partnerships like these that mobilize and send people to serve. For many individuals, these experiences are often their first taste of what it means to be on mission.
The NCMO also supports the work of mission camps in Red Springs and Shelby. These camps coordinate with area churches, civic organizations and others to provide hands-on ministry and outreach opportunities. The camps can house volunteers as they serve and minister in the local community.
As a former associational mission strategist, I know how local Baptist associations can bring churches together to be on mission together and advance the gospel. The NCMO helps support a variety of projects in the 78 Baptist associations across our state.
September is the emphasis month for the NCMO. Please be praying for this year's offering and ministries it supports. You can learn more about the offering and access free promotional materials at ncmissionsoffering.org.
Thank you, North Carolina Baptists, for your faithful generosity and for being on mission together.

Todd Unzicker
Executive Director-Treasurer
With a passion for the local church and the Great Commission, Todd Unzicker's vision for the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina is focused on rallying North Carolina Baptists to be a movement of churches on mission together.
Unzicker was elected executive director-treasurer on May 22, 2021, during a special called meeting of the state convention. Prior to his election, he served in a variety of roles in local church ministry, as the leader of a local Baptist association, and as an international missionary.
Immediately prior to leading the work of the state convention, Unzicker served on staff at The Summit Church in Raleigh-Durham from 2012 to 2021. He has also served as a director of missions in Florida and as a missionary in Central America.
While at The Summit Church, Unzicker served in a variety of roles, which included chief of staff, pastor of sending and campus pastor. The Summit became the top missions-sending church in the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) and the top Cooperative Program giving church in North Carolina during Unzicker's tenure as pastor of sending. During that time, The Summit also ranked among the leading churches in the state in total number of baptisms each year.
Unzicker also worked closely with The Summit's lead pastor, J.D. Greear, during Greear's tenure as president of the SBC. Through that work, Unzicker played a key role in mobilizing churches around SBC strategies such as the "Who's Your One?" evangelism initiative, the "Go2" collegiate missions initiative and the "Caring Well" initiative to help churches prevent sex abuse and care for victims.
Before joining the staff of The Summit Church, Unzicker served as the director of missions for the Holmes Baptist Association in Bonifay, Florida, from 2007 to 2012, before the title was renamed associational mission strategist. While serving in Florida, he worked to bring mostly small, rural churches with bivocational pastors together for church planting and international missions. He also served for two years as a missionary in Central America.
Unzicker earned his bachelor's degree from the Baptist Bible College of Florida and his master of divinity from Southeastern Baptist Theological seminary. Prior to his salvation and his call to ministry, Unzicker worked as a sports reporter covering the nationally ranked University of Georgia football program.
A native of Fairfax, Virginia, outside of Washington, D.C., Unzicker has been married to his wife, Ashley, since 2007. The Unzickers have three children and reside in Wake Forest.
We are committed to resourcing the church.
Every gift makes the missions and ministries of North Carolina Baptist possible.
Our beliefs reflect the scriptural truths presented in the Baptist Faith and Message 2000.
N.C. Baptists are a movement of churches on mission together.

What is the Definition of Avant-Garde?
Garde Avant
Avant Garde Style
Artistic Avant Garde
Film Avant Garde
Avant Gard
Avante Garde
Avant Garde Examples
Brendan McGuigan
Used in a broad sense, avant-garde refers to any trailblazing movement — usually artistic or social — led by a small group of people to open new doors within their realm of interest. Specifically, the term refers to a moment within the art world which encompasses many schools and sub-movements.
Experimental films can be considered avant-garde.
While avant-garde originally was used to describe only cutting-edge movements, as time has progressed many movements have retained the label long after they have ceased to be novel or groundbreaking. Dadaism and modernism, for example, are both considered examples of avant-garde art — though both have been around for nearly a century. This has led many to label movements as historically avant-garde, stressing that in a contemporary setting they are no longer cutting-edge forms of expression.
The term experimental is often used interchangeably with avant-garde, particularly when focusing on a specific area of artistic interest. Examples include experimental theatre and experimental film.
Attempts to specifically define and delineate what is and what is not avant-garde are necessarily problematic, since the definition is ultimately one of personal opinion. What seems cutting-edge and revolutionary to one group of critics may seem tame and overdone to another. While avant-garde schools such as Pop art and Fluxus have a fairly defined set of criteria for what makes a body of work belong to their school, the word itself has no such dictates. Rather, a piece is considered avant-garde if it is avant-garde — a circular reasoning that causes a great deal of general confusion.
Some efforts have been made recently to define the term more rigidly; these attempts set the criteria for an avant-garde piece to be primarily concerned with pushing the envelope with regards to the artistic experience. Works that exist primarily to make a political or social statement not focused on art, are not to be considered avant-garde.
A number of artists who are considered avant-garde have rejected the label entirely, most claiming it is more trouble than it is worth. It is perhaps ironic that the artists most likely to be given this name are those most opposed to confining labels — they desire to break free of boundaries and labels in their artistic expression.
Avant-garde is also sometimes used pejoratively, particularly when regarding a non-artistic sphere. Philosophical and scientific ideas, for example, may be dismissed as being avant-garde, indicating that they exist more as a token gesture to challenge standing theories and tradition than to present new substantiated ideas.

What Is Postmodern Fiction?
What Is Aesthetic Value?
What is Surrealism?
What is a Graphic Artist?
What is Postmodernism?
What are the Seven Modes of Music?
behaviourism
The definition of avant garde seems to change with almost every decade, if not even more often; generally, people who are newer want to be called avant garde to show that they are different and edgy, while more established groups almost shun the label because they don't think "avant garde" things are necessarily taken seriously. I feel like this, along with things like modernist, post modernist, constructionist, deconstructionist, and so on are little more than words to throw around these days.
Titles like avant-garde, modernist, and postmodern tend to be very nebulous, since they do change with time. While there were specific modern and postmodern movements, both of which were seemingly avant garde at the time, since then many art mediums have experienced new movements which use modern or postmodern techniques,or even combine one or both with all new ideas.

Q: What is the intended usage pattern for the AppFabric Cache GetAndLock(forceLock = true) method signature? The documentation states:

If forceLock is true, key is locked irrespective of key-value pair
  presence in cache.

With no further explanation, e.g. what it means to have a lock on a key that is not in the cache and what the intended technique is (or are) for inserting a cache item within the lock.

A: From my past experiences, it is used to reserve a key in the cache by a client.
As you may know, Lock methods are suitable for Resource Data : Shared Memory, concurrently read and written into, accessed by a large number of transactions, such as auction items.
If the key does not exist you can lock the key if it's the first thread/client in and have other threads spin and wait until DataCacheErrorCode.ObjectLocked error code goes away.

A: this is what intended for appfabric pattern.
this.Cache.GetAndLock<ICollection<string>>(key, new TimeSpan(0, 0, 30)

you can use generic parameters for fetching the cache item.

Q: How to enable javascript in Splash I have been recently introduced to Splash. I'm currently trying to render the webpage of the company that I work at (I prefer not to name the company) in the splash API. When I try to render the page in the Splash API, the html contains a message saying:
"Our website can only be used properly with Javascript.
 Enable Javascript in your browser."

At first I didn't understand where this error was coming from, until I disabled the Javascript in my browser and visited the site manually. Without Javascript enabled the same text that I found in the returned Splash html was now visible in my browser:
"Our website can only be used properly with Javascript.
 Enable Javascript in your browser."

The weird part is that when I checked to see whether Javascript was enabled in splash by running the following script in the API:
function main(splash)
    assert(splash:go('https://www.whatismybrowser.com/is-javascript-enabled'))
    png=splash:png()
    return png
end

I got the following image:

It seems like Javascript is enabled just fine...
Question: Why is this website responding to my request as if I have Javascript disabled? How do I fix this problem? Should I add manual commands to enable Splash? (Sorry, I understand that it's annoying that I cannot provide information about the website that I'm trying to visit.)
Edit: To see the html in the website that I want to render I'm using the following script:
function main(splash, args)
   assert(splash:go(args.url))
   assert(splash:wait(15))
   return {
      html = splash:html(),
      png = splash:png(),
      har = splash:har(),
   }
   end

will all the aliens we meet end up being robots?
A popular thought among experts thinking about alien life is that any intelligent life we discover in space will be artificial. But how realistic is this notion?
After getting the Moderna double tap and splurging on some nicer seats on my trip across the country, I decided to relax with a good book. Well, as much as one can relax in a pressurized metal tube thousands of feet in the sky surrounded by masked strangers during a pandemic. The book in question? The Zoologist's Guide to the Galaxy, in which Arik Kershenbaum tries to educate a wide audience about the foundational principles of biology and intelligence, and how those might apply to alien life. It's a good, substantive read which did an admirable job with its speculative subject matter, but one chapter in particular made me furrow my brow, a chapter musing on the potential for artificial intelligence to become its own lifeform.
This notion is nothing new in discussions about astrobiology and SETI, and nowadays, even popular science videos feature intelligent machines as the best candidates to dominate life in the universe. In a way it makes sense. Because we can't easily jump to other worlds being the fragile meat sacks we are, we're sending robots around the solar system and beyond. We're even using AI to help them remotely navigate obstacles and it's just a matter of time before all those machine learning models are embedded into the rovers, satellites, and flyers we send. If we really invest the time and effort, those machines will develop a fair bit of independence and executive function. After that, who knows, right?
Personally, I'm quite skeptical. Consider that for all the amazing claims of what AI is capable of, it's a) typically fallen far short of its claimed potential in the real world, b) focuses on solving very narrow and specific problems, and c) remains little more than a tool to offload computationally intensive statistical formulas with a dash of calculus to help them figure out how to guess their way to the right answer. The first matter can be addressed by more, better, and properly thought out training. The second, by figuring out how to combine hyper-focused models into complex behaviors, something seen in nature — and my personal fixation when it comes to the subject of AI. But the third issue seems insurmountable barring a revolutionary breakthrough.
why artificial intelligence needs organic oversight
If we recognize that artificial intelligence is just a tool, no matter how impressive, a great deal of fanciful predictions must fall away. Most of the ideas about the supposedly unlimited potential of robots and AI come from flawed analogies comparing calculus and statistics to the human brain. Many others are rooted in knowing little beyond neat little demos, papers, and TED speeches that talk a big game but ultimately vanish never to be heard from again. Hell, a lot of companies and labs rushing to present themselves as artificial intelligence pioneers aren't even using what computer scientists would define as machine learning. Our popular conception of AI is rooted less in fact and more in the modern version of retro-futuristic utopianism.
Nick Bostrom, one of the leading voices among the chorus of those warning us of an imminent takeover by a machine super-intelligence that will boggle our minds, insists that artificial life will be more efficient. It won't need to bluff or play or waste time on idle hobbies or tinkering. It will be a hyper-focused engine for galactic conquest. In a way, he's probably right despite his very fuzzy and probably erroneous assumption of how a super-intelligent machine could come about. Yet what he sees as strengths are actually fatal weaknesses. Playing, boredom, downtime, and complex, subtle communication are signs of creativity, and creativity is instrumental for survival and adaptation.
One could probably even argue that humans are as intelligent as they are not because we have language, know things, write them down, and plan, but because our brains have a whole lot of excess bandwidth we can channel into creative pursuits, many of which can result in adding on to all of the above, constantly enriching and advancing our species in the end. Because an AI has no need for play or creativity, and would need to be specifically designed to engage in it after many experiments to establish how it would go about being creative, it can't emerge on its own unless whoever set up its modeling made a fortunate error, then decided that a bug was really a welcome feature. In short, something has to create it and keep it plodding along.
how would aliens use their machines?
At some point, because it's just a very fancy calculator, an AI would get stuck and need more training and upgrades, which an organic intelligence will have to direct. And because AI has such hard limitations — unless it's built to mimic life as we understand it, a very dangerous and possibly suicidal idea — it will most likely remain a tool. Which brings us to another scenario for what kind of advanced aliens we may encounter at some point in the future. Perhaps, much like us, they've built spaceships and computers, developed AI tools, and now want to explore the cosmos. And much like us, they could consider becoming cyborgs and wiring AI right into their minds, something we're also seriously thinking about doing.
Of course, this is not to say that in an argument of whether intelligent, space faring aliens will likely be biological or mechanical we should compromise on cyborgs. We don't know enough to make that assertion and the aliens' choices would be profoundly affected by their biology and culture. They may think that modifying their bodies with machines is a sacrilege or be willing to die in space as long as their descendants make it to their target world. But what we can say is that given what we know about mathematics, computers, and the limitations of technology, if we do run into alien robots, they'll be very much like our probes: ambassadors from another world rather than independent lifeforms on a mission to populate the cosmos.

While I was away recently, Phoebe and friends went to the National Trust office here in Sydney for the presentation morning for the National Trust Schools Competition.
They were thrilled to be placed second (and received a highly commended award) in the competition. This is what the judges said about their project: "A beautifully presented description of the Suspension Bridge. The three students have clearly and simply described the history, heritage and significance of the bridge in an engaging way."
The original post about the scrapbook can be found HERE. And the competition press release from the National Trust can be found HERE. I was so proud of them.
Yep, the classic combination of coat hangers, vegetables and ribbon, all strung together to balance perfectly.
And while I was out this morning with the camera I took some photos of our daffodils. Three months back the girls and I planted our bulbs into some pots.
Well, here's what we've been enjoying over the last couple of weeks. They are so bright and happy.

Q: Problem with category form builder module PrestaShop I'm trying to create a module that allows me to add categoryTree in category form, but I came across a problem.
I don't know how to make inputs selected by default when creating hookActionCategoryFormBuilderModifier.
Here is my code:
public function hookActionCategoryFormBuilderModifier(array $params) {
    $formBuilder = $params['form_builder'];
    $formBuilder->add('my_module', ChoiceCategoriesTreeType::class, array(
        'label' => 'test',
        'list' => Category::getNestedCategories(Category::getRootCategory()->id, $this->languageId, false),
        'multiple' => true,

    ));
}

I've been trying to do something like this, but it doesn't work:
    $params['data']['my_module'][2] = true;
    $formBuilder->setData($params['data']);

How can I make inputs selected by default?
Thank you in advance for the help.
