So At Work Today I Worked With A New Server And She Told Me And The Other Servers How Much She Loved

Weird how the moment my FP goes to bed/stops talking to me is the same moment my mood goes from 100 to 0…. hm, must be a coincidence….

Automating the Publish/Subscribe Pattern in JavaScript

The Publish/Subscribe pattern is one of the most used patterns in software, especially in User Interfaces with JavaScript. It is used whenever 2 pieces of a system need to communicate, but cannot or should not communicate directly. For example, a system receives data from a server at regular intervals that a bunch of components can use (which are added while the system runs):

var Publisher = function() { var self = { subscribers: [] }; self.subscribe = function(callback) { self.subscribers.push(callback); }; self.publish = function(data) { self.subscribers.forEach(function(callback) { callback(data); }); }; return self; } var publisher = Publisher(); // Simulate a set of data being returned over time var serverStream = function(callback) { Array.apply(null, { length: 5 }).forEach(function(unused, index) { var ms = index * 500 setTimeout(function() { callback('data-piece: ' + ms + ' ms'); }, ms); }); }; serverStream(publisher.publish); // Simulate components being registered over time. publisher.subscribe(function(data) { console.info('subscribe from part 1', data); }); setTimeout(function() { publisher.subscribe(function(data) { console.info('subscribe from part 2', data); }); }, 1000) // subscribe from part 1 data-piece: 0 ms // subscribe from part 1 data-piece: 500 ms // subscribe from part 1 data-piece: 1000 ms // subscribe from part 1 data-piece: 1500 ms // subscribe from part 2 data-piece: 1500 ms // subscribe from part 1 data-piece: 2000 ms // subscribe from part 2 data-piece: 2000 ms

The problem is that same pattern with almost identical code will be written over and over again in the same project. So instead of creating a publisher and subscriber with multiple message types each time this pattern needs to be used, it is simpler to just use new instances of the publisher object each time:

var messageSet1 = function(callback) { Array.apply(null, { length: 3 }).forEach(function(unused, index) { setTimeout(function() { callback('Hello ' + index); }, index * 500); }); }; var messageSet2 = function(callback) { Array.apply(null, { length: 3 }).forEach(function(unused, index) { setTimeout(function() { callback('World ' + index); }, index * 500); }); }; var MessageBox = function() { var self = { publishers: [] }; self.streams = function(streams) { self.publishers = []; streams.forEach(function(stream, index) { self.publishers.push(Publisher()); stream(self.publishers[index].publish); }); }; self.subscribeTo = function(index, callback) { return self.publishers[index].subscribe(callback); } return self; }; var messageBox = MessageBox(); // Use a trivial example to preserve clarity messageBox.streams([messageSet1, messageSet2]); messageBox.subscribeTo(0, function(data) { console.info('subscribe from part 1B', data); }); messageBox.subscribeTo(1, function(data) { console.info('subscribe from part 2B', data); }); // subscribe from part 1B Hello 0 // subscribe from part 2B World 0 // subscribe from part 1B Hello 1 // subscribe from part 2B World 1 // subscribe from part 1B Hello 2 // subscribe from part 2B World 2

A non-index based naming scheme could be introduced by passing more data into the streams call, but I wanted to keep the example as minimal as possible.

Sometimes I really wonder how people manage to be larries but also kind of think that louis is some kind of idiot that just accepts whatever ‘nasty selfish Harry’ is doing like he’s some love fool that just accepts things while the fandom clearly sees through said version of Harry like what kind of relationship do people think they have? And do people realise they are basically questioning louis’ intelligence?

Apple launches late AirPods into immediate ship slip

Apple today began selling the delayed AirPods, but the wireless headphones almost immediately skated to a 2017 ship date.

The Cupertino, Calif. company warned customers that the product would be available in “limited quantities at launch.”

Indeed.

The $159 headphones – which resemble enlarged ear buds sans wires – debuted on Apple’s online store earlier Tuesday. Within minutes, the estimated ship date shifted from Dec. 21 to mid-January 2017.

Apple introduced the AirPods in September, alongside the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. At the time, executives said that the headphones would be available in October. Late in October, however, Apple confirmed that the AirPods were delayed, saying, “We need a little more time before AirPods are ready for our customers.”

Human Spatial Memory is Made Up of Numerous Individual Maps

Spatial memory is something we use and need in our everyday lives. Time for morning coffee? We head straight to the kitchen and know where to find the coffee machine and cups. To do this, we require a mental image of our home and its contents. If we didn’t have this information stored in our memory, we would have to search through the entire house every time we needed something. Exactly how this mental processing works is not clear. Do we use one big mental map of all of the objects we have in our home? Or do we have a bunch of small maps instead – perhaps one for each room? Tobias Meilinger and Marianne Strickrodt, cognitive scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics, investigated these questions in a research study.

Hurricane Irma

This hurricane has officially hit a category 5. To give you an idea of the strength of this storm:

Harvey was a category 4.

Katrina and Andrew were a category 5 and Irma is at the moment is stronger than both of them. This hurricane is going to cause absolute destruction when it hits. Puerto Rico (especially this beautiful isla)  Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic and Florida are all in it’s path. Here’s a checklist if you can afford these supplies.

Food

Bottled Water- a week’s supply minimum (One gallon daily per person)

Non perishable items that don’t require cooking ( Tuna, nuts, fruit cups, Cereal bars, peanut butter, crackers, dried fruits, canned vegetables, chili)

Dry pet food 

Packaged juices 

Powdered or canned milk 

Supplies

Manual can opener

Toilet paper 

Baby wipes ( this will make a great alternative for showers)

Batteries ( AAA, AA, 6V, C, and D)

Tampons and pads

Sand bags (redirects water and debris flow)

First aid kit

Documentation / Legal End

A closed water proof sealed container

Take pictures and send them to yourself in an email of the following: Drivers License, photo ID, social security numbers, medical insurance cards (of each person) 

Take photos of everything! Insurance companies are not your friends. Email everything to yourself. 

If you have young children and they are able to make sure they memorize your name, address, and phone number

Other tips: 

Before the hurricane hits fill up the bath tubs in your house (extra water for flushing the toilet) 

Bring any ornaments from outside inside 

Trim trees
