 Respond in detail. What do you know about Hot Sugar's new project "The Melody of Dust"?

Nick Koenig is no stranger to musical innovation. The artist, better known as Hot Sugar, has been dabbling in the art of associative music since his teens. As he describes it, the technique involves taking found sounds and "manipulating them into more." Basically, he can turn just about anything into music.
Now with The Melody of Dust, a new project coproduced with Viacom NEXT and premiering at SXSW this week, he's taking that concept into virtual reality. We've seen music videos and other experiences in VR -- most famously from Bjork, one of the most tech-savvy artists working today. But this is notable for being the primary method of hearing an album, instead of a separate VR project. And no, it's not as easy as just hitting "play."
The Melody of Dust starts in a castle-like room. Since it's an HTC Vive experience, your first instinct is to start walking around and interacting with the space. Pretty quickly you'll notice that just about every object you can pick up -- be it a bird, a glass or a vase -- produces a different tone. After some time, a vortex erupts in the room, and you can throw those objects in. For every three things that you toss, you get a different melody.
None of this is spelled out for you. Like a good adventure game, it's up to you to explore The Melody of Dust. Once you've loaded up the vortex enough, you get to hear one of 87 different songs Koenig mixed for the experience. As you can probably guess, the song you get depends on what you've actually thrown in.
"I'm looking at it as a new music listening experience," Koenig said. "It's like jumping into a new venue for listening to the music." While he's planning to release a traditional album with 13 of the experience's songs, Koenig sees The Melody of Dust as his true new album.
It's not the most visually rich experience I've seen, but it's conceptually fascinating. I played through it without hearing about Koenig's grand vision for the future of interactive music, but even without that philosophical setup I still enjoyed exploring the environment and hearing the sounds every object created. I was relying on pure intuition and the minor triggers from the game, but I still got a sense of what Koenig was aiming for. It's the sort of thing that would reward a few plays through it, especially once you know that you're supposed to experiment to hear new songs.
"The technology is constantly evolving; 360-degree video to Vive is already a whole different thing," Koenig said when I asked him about his thoughts on VR's potential as a new medium. "As this continues developing, the future of most media will be some iteration of this sort of thing ... That's why we're not afraid of jumping the gun and doing an album on a platform most music fans don't even own. I have faith in a few years it'll be just as relevant, or at least unique."
Given the expense and scarcity of VR equipment, there's a good chance most of Hot Sugar's fans will hear The Melody of Dust album without even catching a whiff of the virtual component. But Koenig doesn't seem too concerned about that. He's more interested in trying something new than being traditional. And with The Melody of Dust, he has a shot at being a pioneer in a whole new medium.

 Describe the current legal dispute between President Trump and Robert Mueller.

President Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani said Wednesday that the President’s legal team is already preparing a memo to oppose a potential subpoena from special counsel Robert Mueller and would likely take the legal battle to the Supreme Court if necessary, according to the Washington Post.
Trump’s team has still not heard back from Mueller about a new proposal on the parameters of a potential interview with Mueller, after rejecting the special counsel’s last proposal last week.
Trump’s lawyers are pushing to shield Trump from being cornered into answering questions about obstruction of justice, while Mueller’s team has offered to allow him to answer those kind of questions in writing. The two sides have been negotiating over the scope of a potential presidential interview for months, as Trump publicly vocalizes his willingness to answer Mueller’s questions.

 What is Donald Trump doing with the Russia scandal?

Donald Trump’s attempts at muddying the Russia scandal are extremely stupid.
Trump treated the tweeting public to a rare late-night barrage on Monday evening. Unsurprisingly, his recent troubles—the Russia scandal, which has been spinning out of control for weeks now, and the disastrous attempt at repealing and replacing Obamacare—were at the forefront of his mind. Trump’s tweets about Obamacare were predictable: He blamed the Freedom Caucus yet again for killing the bill, and he claimed, as he did a few minutes after pulling the bill, that Obamacare is collapsing (it isn’t). His tweets about Russia were stranger—and they continued the next morning.
So what’s going on here? Trump starts by rehashing the very, very old story of John Podesta, the Clinton Foundation, and the Russian uranium deal—a story that helped kick off the right’s anti-Clinton war back in 2015 and that served as a kind of grace note to Clinton’s eventual defeat in the 2016 election. That story emerged out of the book Clinton Cash, which was written by Peter Schweizer, the head of the Steve Bannon–funded the Government Accountability Institute. In many ways, the uranium story and Clinton Cash set the pattern for the attacks that Bannon and Trump would use against the Clintons: that they were part of a corrupt global elite that was undermining America. When Wikileaks released John Podesta’s emails in the summer of 2016, the organization would once again spotlight the Russian uranium story.
But that is a very old story at this point. Trump is also spotlighting a newer dubious story about the Clinton campaign and Russia. A number of rightwing sources have boosted a Daily Caller story that alleges that Podesta “may have violated federal law by failing to disclose the receipt of 75,000 shares of stock from a Kremlin-financed company when he joined the Obama White House in 2014.” This story relies on—you guessed it—Wikileaks emails and the Government Accountability Institute.
Trump is doing what he’s done for the last several years: He is signal-boosting dubious stories from right-wing outlets to muddy a damaging narrative. But this is not a particularly good time for Trump to be jumping up and down telling people to look at reporting based on Wikileaks investigations. He’s also reminding us that he is the president—not Hillary Clinton, not John Podesta, neither of whom have been accused of receiving help from the Russians in an election that they lost.
All Trump is doing is spotlighting his own, well-documented connections with the Russians. And he’s doing so at a time when there’s a news vacuum, following his health care fiasco. The Russia story already seems poised to rush into that vacuum—and Donald Trump is helping.

 Compare and contrast the themes of the Batman films throughout cinematic history, and share your opinion on Danny Elfman bringing back his iconic Batman theme for Justice League.

The internet all but exploded when news broke that Danny Elfman would be replacing Junkie XL as the composer for Justice League. Which is understandable, as Danny Elfman created one of the most iconic superhero themes of all time.
Aside from John Williams’ Superman score, no other piece of comic book music is as memorable as that of Tim Burton’s Batman. Elfman created a piece of music that has been synonymous with The Caped Crusader ever since, and it looks like that iconic theme may be making a return.
This is certainly exciting news, and also not the first time that a classic score has made a return. Remember, John Williams’ theme was brought back for Superman Returns, though that was considered a full-on sequel to the Richard Donner film (and Elfman is also reportedly incorporating the Williams theme into Justice League).
How do you feel about Danny Elfman bringing back his Batman theme? Let us know in the comments!
Um, Zimmer and Junkie XL’s scores are more memorable then elfmans. Mad Max, Dark Knight, Man of Steel are epic soundtracks for today. I somewhat like Batman’s 1989 theme but I have never rushed out to buy the soundtrack like those above.
Elfman’s is timeless. I own the Dark Knight dvd and could barely remember the score. The scores for Dark Knight and BvS are cool, but Elfman’s theme will always be more iconic, especially since it’s been featured in the original series,video games and two iconic Batman films. Elfman’s theme hits you more in the soul, while Zimmer’s is more rhythmic.
Ehh, I think of Lego Batman now every time I hear it.
The movie or the game? Either way, that just shows how great the score is because people don’t wanna change or create something else when something perfect already exists. Zimmer and Junkie have their own because the styles and tones of the movies are different. They’re scores are great too, but everybody recognizes Elfman’s because it’s widely used and associated with multiple memorable content.
This is like asking for the animated X-Men theme to be central part of the next Xman movie score, its stupid. This Elfman theme invokes a cartoonish and outdated Batman that only the fanboys truly appreciate. After TDK trilogy we have an entirely different view of Batman, and by the way I dont see the MCU too worried about hero “themes”, its about making a great score for a great movie.
We don’t even know how it’ll be used or if it’ll be changed to fit the tone, yet. It could work if managed properly. Plus, the only reason you don’t hear about MCU’s themes is because they haven’t created any iconic or memorable themes to be talked about yet,and none of their themes have a composer like Elfman or Zimmer, so no one cares. What’s the point of bringing them up anyway? I’m a bigger fan of Marvel, but their themes are weak, none of them are memorable.
Now I wish it was saved for the solo Batman movie.

 Describe the situation in Montenegro as it relates to its NATO membership.

The Democratic Front, an alliance of parties opposed to Montenegro’s membership of Nato, flies a giant Russian flag from the top balcony of its red-and-white headquarters in Podgorica.
It’s a striking choice given that two of the party’s leaders have been stripped of parliamentary immunity and charged with attempting to overthrow the government in an allegedly Russian-backed plot. But it also shows the deep divisions that continue as the Balkan country of 600,000 is welcomed as the alliance’s 29th member and attends its first summit on Thursday.
It was only 18 years ago that Nato aircraft were bombing targets in Montenegro – then part of a federal republic with Serbia – in a campaign that forced Slobodan Milošević’s troops out of Kosovo. The bombing remains a painful memory for many Montenegrins, and polls have shown the population evenly divided on Nato membership. Then there is the spectre of Russia, a historical ally and fellow Slavic country, accused by the government of an assassination attempt on the then prime minister Milo Đukanović.
Many hope Nato membership will end the tumultuous east-west struggle in Montenegrin politics, but the divisive trial of the accused plotters starts this week, and the country remains in political crisis.
The ruling Democratic Party of Socialists (DPS) barely gathered enough votes to ratify the Nato accession treaty, and the opposition has promised to call a referendum to reconsider membership if it comes to power. Its leaders have continued to travel to Moscow.
One of the key objections to Montenegro’s Nato membership, raised by the US senator Rand Paul among others, is that it can contribute a tiny military of only 2,000 soldiers in exchange for Nato protection. What it does have is the last stretch of Mediterranean coastline between Gibraltar and Syria not controlled by the alliance, a location also coveted by Russia. Moscow asked for but was denied permission to refuel and restock naval ships in Montenegro in 2013, but has denied seeking a permanent base there.
But Nato membership is also a move that has been rejected by much of the population, raising the possibility of continued political upheaval. A poll in December found that 39.5% of the population was for and 39.7% against. Added to 500 who died in the 1999 Nato bombing of Serbia and Montenegro are the historical ties to Russia. Russia was the first foreign country with which Montenegro established diplomatic ties in 1711, and is also majority Orthodox Christian.
“I like Russia, not the Americans. Russia is our people. We have the same culture and history,” said Zhanna Brajović, the owner of a small market in Podgorica.
Since Oleg Deripaska, an oligarch who was close to Vladimir Putin, bought the major state aluminum smelter KAP in 2005, Russian money has been pouring into Montenegro, especially to beachside real estate and development deals. Deripaska is now suing the government over the loss of KAP but remains an investor in the Porto Montenegro yacht marina project. Russia reportedly accounts for one-third of the foreign direct investment in Montenegro in 2015, dwarfing that from western Europe.
Đukanović argued that “Russian investors and tourists find that it is something in their best interest to go to a country which has a rule of law,” which is what Nato and EU reforms, being introduced as it approaches membership, are theoretically achieving.
The Russian government, on the other hand, promised “retaliatory actions” after Nato invited Montenegro. In April, it banned imports from Montenegro’s largest winemaker, and the Russian foreign ministry warned that tourists could “expect provocations and detentions” due to “anti-Russian hysteria”. Russians reportedly accounted for 7.3% of all tourist stays in March, down from 19.2% in March 2016.
The election on 16 October was essentially the last chance for voters to approve or reject Montenegro’s Nato accession. Some accuse the ruling party of unfairly rallying voters to its side by announcing the coup attempt on the day of the polls, even though the alleged plotters were arrested the day before.
In the following months, discussion of the alleged Russian plot has dominated politics and the media, she added.
According to an indictment prepared by the chief prosecutor Milivoje Katnić, a group of Serbian nationalists planned to seize the parliament and assassinate Đukanović, while others dressed as police officers were to open fire on crowds outside. The Democratic Front would be declared the country’s new rulers, stopping the Nato accession process, it said. A member of the group lost his nerve and tipped off law enforcement, who moved in to arrest them.
The main evidence against the indicted opposition leaders, Andrija Mandić and Milan Knežević, is their frequent trips to Russia, and they reportedly visited Moscow again this month. The two deny the existence of any such plot.
“It’s a fake state coup organised by Đukanović … to prevent probable victory of the opposition in the election,” Nebojša Medojević, another member of the Democratic Front, told the Guardian.
Another possibility is that pro-Kremlin radicals did indeed devise the plot. Suspicions fell on Leonid Reshetnikov, the outspokenly hawkish head of a Kremlin-backed thinktank, when Putin fired him a few days after the alleged coup attempt. Also, in a leaked email to an associate of the “Orthodox oligarch” Konstantin Malofeyev, a pro-Russian activist in eastern Europe purportedly discussed the failed Montenegro plot. Representatives of both Reshetnikov and Malofeyev denied any involvement to the Guardian.
In the aftermath of the alleged coup attempt and Montenegro joining Nato, Serbia is likely to become the “main Russian hope in the western Balkans”, according to Andrei Kortunov, director of the Russian International Affairs Council. In the same week that the US Senate approved Montenegro’s Nato membership, the Serbian prime minister, Aleksandar Vučić, and Putin signed the first Russia-Serbia arms deals since 2013.

 Respond in 34 sentences. Describe a breakdown of the Open Workout 18.3.

Analysis and breakdown of Open Workout 18.3.
Week 3 of the Reebok CrossFit Games Open brought us double-unders, overhead squats, dumbbell snatches, and ring and bar muscle-ups. Technically, the workout was 2 rounds for time, but with an aggressive 14-minute time cap, it turned into an AMRAP-style workout for all but two competitors—Dakota Rager and Josh Bridges.
If you thought the 350 double-unders we saw in 17.5 were rough, this year Dave Castro upped the ante with 800 double-unders required to complete 18.3. Fortunately for our calves, the average competitor only had time to complete about 251 double-unders.
Although we’ve seen some type of muscle-up every year in the Open, this was the first time we’ve seen both types of muscle-ups in the same workout. And to the disappointment of many proud bar muscle-up aficionados, you had to get past the 12 ring muscle-ups (and 440 other reps) to get to the pull-up bar. It was more accessible than 15.3, though, which opened with 7 ring muscle-ups.
Among competitors aged 18-34, 77 percent of men and 57 percent of women attempted the Rx’d version of 18.3, compared to 89 percent and 71 percent last week, respectively.
Ring muscle-ups are one of the most challenging movements we see in the Open and always prove to be a roadblock for athletes. This year was no exception. While an impressive 72 percent of Rx’d men got at least one ring muscle-up during 18.3, only 26 percent of Rx’d women accomplished the same. Most of the athletes who couldn’t perform ring muscle-ups ended the workout with 220 reps, which is as far as you can get without them. Ultimately, 53 percent of women and 16 percent of men ended the Rx’d workout with 220 reps.
The chart below gives a breakdown of who performed the workout as Rx’d and how many reps they performed, as well as a breakdown of who attempted and finished the Scaled version, separated by division.
Finishing this workout was nearly impossible. Just getting past the first round is pretty impressive. Only 25 percent of Rx’d men and 6 percent of Rx’d women made it into Round 2.
The chart below gives the distribution of Rx’d scores based on the movement the athlete was on when the time cap hit. You had to get at least one rep in the next movement section to be included in that grouping. The giant spike during the second set of double-unders includes all the athletes who were either still working on their double-unders or finished them but didn’t get a ring muscle-up.
For the women, we see that the big roadblock was the ring muscle-ups. For the men, we see a big group that got some ring muscle-ups but not all of them. There also is a nice distribution of scores for the men centered on the bar muscle-ups at the end of Round 1. These were athletes who could perform all the required movements, and the differences in their scores came down to movement proficiency and work capacity.
Below are the percentile tables for all divisions on 18.3. You can see the breakdown of what time and/or reps it took to achieve a particular percentile for your division. Times in gray are the finish times for the workout, and times in green are the tiebreak times for athletes with 220 reps. For example, for Rx’d Women (18-34), you needed 220 reps with a tiebreak time of 6:27 to get into the 50th percentile.
On the left side of the table, you can see the percentage of athletes who did the Scaled version of the workout in each division. The percentile tables are calculated by comparing each division and version of the workout. This differs from the percentiles you’ll see in the CrossFit Games app, which shows you your overall percentile in your division against both Rx’d and Scaled competitors.

Among the tens of thousands of computer programs now emulated in the browser at the Internet Archive, a long-growing special collection has hit a milestone: the 4am Collection is now past 500 available Apple II programs preserved for the first time.
In fact, all the screenshots in this entry link to playable programs!
If you’re not familiar with the Apple II software library that has existed over the past few decades, a very common situation of the most groundbreaking and famous programs produced by this early home computer is that only the “cracked” versions persist. Off the shelf, the programs would include copy protection routines that went so far as to modify the performance of the floppy drive, or force the Apple II’s operating system to rewrite itself to behave in strange ways.
Because hackers (in the “hyper-talented computer programmers” sense) would take the time to walk through the acquired floppy disks and remove copy protection, those programs are still available to use and transfer, play and learn from.
One side effect, however, was that these hackers, young or proud of the work they’d done, would modify the graphics of the programs to announce the effort they’d put behind it, or remove/cleave away particularly troublesome or thorny routines that they couldn’t easily decode, meaning the modern access to these programs were to incomplete or modified versions. For examples of the many ways these “crack screens” might appear, I created an extensive gallery of them a number of years ago. (Note that there are both monochrome and color versions of the same screen, and these are just screen captures, not playable versions.) They would also focus almost exclusively on games, especially arcade games, meaning any programs that didn’t fall into the “arcade entertainment” section of the spectrum of Apple II programs was left by the wayside entirely.
With an agnostic approach to the disks being preserved, 4am has brought to light many programs that fall almost into the realm of lore and legend, only existing as advertisements in old computer magazines or in catalog listings of computer stores long past.
These extensive write-ups shine a light on one of the core situations about these restored computer programs.
As 4am has wryly said over the years, “Copy Protection Works!” – if the copy protection of a floppy disk-based Apple II program was strong and the program did not have the attention of obsessed fans or fall into the hands of collectors, its disappearance and loss was almost guaranteed. Because many educational and productivity software programs were specialized and not as intensely pursued/wanted as “games” in all their forms, those less-popular genres suffer from huge gaps in recovered history. Sold in small numbers, these floppy disks are subject to bit rot, neglect, and being tossed out with the inevitably turning of the wheels of time.
This collection upends that situation: by focusing on acquiring as many different unduplicated Apple II programs as possible, 4am are using their skills to ensure an extended life and documented reference materials for what would otherwise disappear.
Already, the collection has garnered some attention – the “Classifying Animals With Backbones” educational program linked above has a guest review from one of the creators describing the process of the application coming to life. And a particularly thorny copy protection scheme on a 1982 game of Burger Time went viral (in a good way) and was read 25,000 times when it was uploaded to the Archive.
In a few cases, the amount of effort behind the copy protection schemes and the concerned engineering involved in removing the copy protection are epics in themselves.
As an example, this educational program Speed Reader II contains extensive copy protection routines, using tricks and traps to resist any attempts to understand its inner workings and misleading any potential parties who are duplicating it. 4am do their best to walk the user through what’s going on, and even if you might not understand the exact code and engineering involved, it leaves the reader smarter for having browsed through it.
This project has been underway for years and is now at the 500 newly-preserved program mark – that’s 500 different obscure programs preserved for the first time, which you can play and experience on the archive.

On behalf of Apple][ enthusiasts as well as humanity, “I thank you”. I still have a working Apple//e (with Z-80/CPM card, two 5.25 inch floppy drives, etc) set up in a spare bedroom. This was the platform I learned to program in: Integer BASIC (written by WOZ), AppleSoft BASIC (written by Microsoft for Apple), Apple’s version of UCSD Pascal, Apple Fortran, and 6502 Assembler. Anyone out there remember Sweet16 or the Graphics Toolkit?

 Did Sierra Leone really use blockchain tech to tally their election results? Respond in 15 sentences.

Following the presidential elections conducted in Sierra Leone on March 7, it was widely reported in the media that Sierra Leone had become the first country in the world to run blockchain-powered elections.
These reports were based on the claims of a Swiss blockchain company, Agora, where it said that the country had utilized blockchain tech to tally and audit the election results. However, it seems that the company’s claims were entirely false.
Tamba Lamin, a Sierra Leone citizen, pointed out in his medium blog that as per the official handbook of the NEC of Sierra Leone for ‘Polling and Counting Procedures,’ all of the polling and counting is done manually.
The official handbook has illustrations highlighting how the ballot is marked manually without any involvement of technology, with a ‘pen’ or ‘fingerprint.’ Similarly, all the tallying of votes was also done manually, as per the handbook.
In another tweet on March 19, NEC of Sierra Leone clarified the technology they utilized to conduct the elections: C++ and MS SQL, but no blockchain.
Two days following the elections, on March 9, Agora published a blog with the misleading headline “Swiss-based Agora powers world’s first ever blockchain elections in Sierra Leone.” A lot of hype followed after this exaggerated PR stunt managed to get coverage in most of mainstream media, following a chain of citation of unverified claims.
The truth, however, was a bit less ‘grand.’ Agora had ‘international observer’ access to 250 polling stations in the Western Area of Sierra Leone (out of the approximately 11,200 in total, i.e. two percent of all polling stations), and counted the results independently, allegedly using blockchain technology. This involvement had no impact on the standard election procedures of the NEC, in any manner.
Also, it’s worth noting that Agora might even have tallied the votes wrong, as the company’s results for the two districts differed considerably from the official results, according to an analysis of the two sets of statistics carried out by RFI.
Following the backlash for the false claims, Agora published an official statement clarifying their stance. Unlike their last announcement, this time, Agora has focused on facts, and provided accurate information about their ‘partial’ involvement.
The statement however goes on to critisize an organization called Sierra Leone Open Election Data Platform (SLOEDP) and Tamba Lamin, who Agora claims has launched a vendetta against them, and are responsible for all the backlash that Agora is receiving. However, the fact that Agora grossly exaggerated facts can be both verified through the difference of language in their two statements before and after the backlash, and the official statements from the NEC, even if SLOEDP took the efforts to highlight this false claim out of a vested interest.

 What is Flare, and why should I use it?

tl;dr: I wrote Flare, a Dynamic Neural Net library in Clojure. It currently can do some non-trivial things and it’s pretty fast: over 3x faster than PyTorch for a CPU-based a simple Bi-LSTM classifier (although PyTorch has many more features and is more stable).
Why do we need another Neural Net library?
It’d been a few years since I directly wrote a large piece of software, and one of my goals this year was to just that. One of the surprising things to have changed software-wise in that time is that Python has become the defato language for a lot of machine learning work. Presumably, a lot of this is due to strong auto-grad neural net libraries like TensorFlow, PyTorch, DyNet, and several others which delegate to native code for performance. While I really like PyTorch’s clean interface and generally prefer it amongst popular neural net libraries, I wanted to primarily work in Clojure, which I’m incredibly productive in and has a lot to offer for building large ML-systems.
After looking at some JVM options for dynamic neural nets1, none quite felt right or at the same level of simplicity as PyTorch. Since this was for fun, I made the unpragmatic choice to write something from scratch. I think the result shares a lot with PyTorch, but feels like it was made for a functional programming language; it also appears for CPU workloads I’ve tried, that it’s much faster. I think Clojure, and functional languages generally, have a lot to offer for ML and ML-related work, but I think the absence of a good non-Python choice has made that harder.
The computation happens eagerly, you don’t need to call forward on any node, the operation happens as soon great the graph node is created.2 You can disable eager mode if you prefer lazier computation. Like PyTorch and others, nearly all the math operations actually happens in native code, in this case using Intel MKL via the awesome Neanderthal library, however you can plug in different tensor implementaitons (e.g., ND4J).
The big surprise with Flare has been that performance is relatively strong compared to PyTorch, about 2x-3x faster for the models I’ve built in Flare. While I’ve optimized the obvious things in Flare, there is still a lot more low hanging fruit. I suspect some of the performance wins relative to PyTorch are coming from graph construction itself. While PyTorch and Flare both fallback to Intel native MKL on CPU, graph construction happens in the host language (Python or Clojure) and this is where PyTorch and Flare can differ performance-wise; this makes a large difference for dynamic neural nets where graph construction happens for each input.
The performance difference isn’t suprising, but the difference in loss function value and train/test accuracy is given the model and data are identical. I tried hard to make the two implementations as close as possible down to the same choice of optimization hyper-paramters used in AdaDelta on either side. The only things I can’t account for are (a) parameter initializations (b) bugs in either library. I suspect the difference in accuracy is mostly due to different choices of how parameters are initialized. I’ve also added a bump test to verify the gradients in the end-to-end model are accurate, since it’s very easy for a subtle bug to yield performance a point or two lower.
GPU Support: Neanderthal supports many platforms (CUDA, OpenCL, etc.), so this should be straightforward.
Auto-Batching: I like the auto-batching idea, described in this paper. I have the start of a auto-batching computation, which shows some sign of speeding up training substantially. I’m not quite happy with the design, and want to take some time to think through if there’s a cleaner approach to auto-batching.
CNN-1D models: This is an obvious one. My first models built in Flare where all LSTM variants and I just haven’t had a need for this yet.

 Have you heard about Russian Twitter trolls encouraging people to vote for Trump in Ohio during the 2016 election?

Russia Twitter trolls: Were you trolled by Russians promoting Trump in Ohio?
Were you trolled on Twitter by these Russians promoting Trump, bashing Kasich in Ohio?
Russian Twitter trolls were busy in Ohio during 2016. They bashed Gov. John Kasich and stoked anti-Muslim sentiments after an attack at Ohio State.
COLUMBUS - Russian Twitter trolls stoked anti-Muslim sentiments after an attack at Ohio State University. They bashed Gov. John Kasich and promoted now-President Donald Trump in Ohio during the 2016 election.
An Enquirer review of more than 500 tweets sent by Russian-linked accounts – including two named in a federal indictment – also shows an effort to question the validity of votes and attack Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in Ohio.
In January, Twitter identified 3,814 accounts it had determined were linked to Russia. The social media site suspended those accounts and deleted their tweets.
Some of those tweets are still accessible through an NBC news archive of 203,000 tweets from 453 Russia-linked accounts. More than one-fourth of those accounts targeted Ohio – a key swing state in national elections.
"Yes, if Trump's Muslim travel ban were in place, the Ohio State attack would have never happened!" wrote one Russia-linked account hours after 11 people were injured there.
In November 2016, Ohio State University student Abdul Razak Ali Artan – a Somali refugee – injured several people by ramming some with a car and stabbing others with a knife. A campus police officer, Alan Horujko, fatally shot Artan shortly after the attack began, preventing additional injuries.
"By the way, Ohio State University is a 'Gun Free Zone.' It'd rather be 'Refugee Free Zone,'" wrote @thefoundingson, an account linked to Russian Twitter trolls.
"Ohio State University situation confirms that I made the only right decision by voting for @realDonaldTrump #MakeAmericaGreatAgain," the account wrote. Ohio State University officials declined to comment about the posts.
Those were not the only anti-Muslim sentiments shared in Ohio. In September, @ten_gop, one of two accounts active in Ohio that were named in a recent federal indictment of Russian nationals who meddled in the 2016 election, tweeted: "Ohio HONOR KILLING: Muslim Father Shoots Daughter in the Head!!! BAN ISLAM!"
The tweet was an apparent reference to the shooting death of Cleveland-area pharmacist Tahani Mansour, whose father said he killed her because she disrespected his rules.
That same Twitter account stoked racial tensions in Milwaukee during riots there in August 2016.
The Russia-linked accounts also trolled Ohio's governor, a GOP primary rival to Trump. Kasich skipped much of the Republican National Convention in his home state and refused to vote for Trump for president. Instead, he wrote in the name of Arizona Sen. John McCain.
In September, @kateritterrrr wrote, "Yeah, I deleted all of my Kasich stuff, that guy is the lowest of the low! Why Ohio supports him I'll never know!" Closer to the election, the account retweeted a headline from right-leaning website LifeZette: "Kasich's NeverTrump Vote Embodies What's Wrong with Elites."
Those tweets worry the Ohio governor. "One of the untold stories is Russian interference in the primary to aid Trump. One of many reasons Director (Robert) Mueller must be allowed to finish his investigation unfettered," Kasich spokesman Chris Schimpf said, referencing the former FBI director's investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
Other tweets mocked Clinton's ground game or attendance at events. "CLINTON and KAINE CANCELLED #OHIO EVENT Due to LACK OF INTEREST! #NeverHillary #VoteTrump2016 #MAGA " retweeted @leroylovesusa.
The Clinton campaign said at the time that a Cleveland event was canceled due to time constraints. Instead, she and running mate Tim Kaine went to Youngstown and Columbus.
The tweets also questioned the legitimacy of Ohio's voting process – a key complaint from candidate Trump as the election approached and it appeared he could lose.
"5-6 Voting Machines In Ohio County Switch Republican To Democrat Votes!" retweeted @march_for_trump, another account referenced in the federal indictment.
"All Fellow Deplorables. Especially in Ohio@JohnKasich is having meetings with POTUS. BEWARE OF PLAN TO RIG OHIO VOTE," shared another account.
But those claims were false, according to the Ohio secretary of state's office, which oversees elections. Russians also attempted to hack 21 states' voting systems, including Ohio's, but no votes were changed, the secretary of state said.
While many of the Russian trolls' tweets appear to favor Trump, some were unbiased. One account retweeted an Ohio Democratic Party message reminding people to vote. Another shared a story about Luke Fickell being named the University of Cincinnati's head football coach.

 What is going on with the investigation into former FBI #2 Andrew McCabe?

Federal investigators from the D.C. U.S. Attorney's office recently interviewed former FBI director James Comey as part of an ongoing probe into whether former FBI #2 Andrew McCabe broke the law when he lied to federal agents, reports the Washington Post.
What makes the interview particularly interesting is that Comey and McCabe have given conflicting reports over the events leading up to McCabe's firing, with Comey calling his former deputy a liar in an April appearance on The View.
Investigators from the D.C. U.S. Attorney's office were likely to be keenly interested in Comey's version of whether or not he knew about McCabe's disclosure.
“I have a strong impression he conveyed to me ‘it wasn’t me boss.’ And I don’t think that was by saying those words, I think it was most likely by saying ‘I don’t know how this s--- gets in the media or why would people talk about this kind of thing,’ words that I would fairly take as ‘I, Andy, didn’t do it,’ ” Comey said, according to the inspector general.
Following McCabe's firing, his attorney Michael R. Bromwich (flush with cash from the disgraced Deputy Director's half-million dollar legal defense GoFundMe campaign), fired back - claiming that Comey was well aware of the leaks.
McCabe may also find himself at odds with the Department of Justice, as notes he kept allegedly detailing an interaction with Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein raise questions about a memo Rosenstein wrote justifying Comey's firing. While Rosenstein's memo took aim at Comey for his mishandling of the Clinton email investigation, McCabe's notes suggest that Trump told Rosenstein to point to the Russia investigation. Rosenstein's recommendation ultimately did not mention Russia.
As the Washington Post notes, lying to federal investigators can carry a five-year prison sentence - however McCabe says he did not intentionally mislead anyone. The Post also notes that while Comey's interview is significant, it does not indicated that prosecutors have reached any conclusions.
Whatever Comey told federal investigators, we suspect it eventually boiled down to "McCabe didn't tell me," squarely placing responsibility for the leaks - and the lies, on McCabe's shoulders.

 Provide a summary of Sirwan Kakai's UFC fight.

Sweden’s Sirwan Kakai (11-2) has finally been signed to the UFC, but ‘Zohan’ won’t have time to celebrate as he will only have a few days before stepping into fight. The UFC announced the signing and his bout on the UFC Fight Night card in Hollywood, Florida. “What can i say! It could not come at a better time! I am ready for whats coming and i will make most of it!” posts Kakai on Facebook after the signing.
Kakai will be facing veteran Danny Martinez (16-6) in a bantamweight bout at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. San Diego’s Martinez is coming off a Fight of the Night war with Scott Jorgensen last June, which he lost by decision. Prior to this bout the Alliance fighter lost by decision to Chris Cariaso. The 30 year old was on a four fight winning streak before getting signed to the UFC and fighting at flyweight.
“I am so confident, I really believe I am one of the best fighters in the world.” says Kakai to MMAViking.com just last month as he awaits news on his next bout. “I want to thank everyone for the support, its been many years of up and downs, but finally i accomplished one of my goals, and now i just looking forward and going for the top!” Kakai has a two fight winning streak heading into his first UFC bout versus Martinez.
The 25 year Kakai has won his last 11 of 12 fights, only losing another close decision in Japan to Taichi Nakajimi in September of 2013. The American Top Team in Florida fighter is perfectly positioned geographically to be added to Saturday’s card in Florida headlined by Yoel Romero and Lyoto Machida as UFC Fight Night 70 has been in turmoil lately as multiple Brazilian fighters were unable to receive visas for the event.
Kakai versus Martinez is expected to be the first fight of the night and can be seen on UFC’s Fight Pass.

 Describe how countries are phasing out coal use.

Finland could become the first country to ditch coal for good. As part of a new energy and climate strategy due to be announced tomorrow, the government is considering banning the burning of coal for energy by 2030.
“Basically, coal would disappear from the Finnish market,” says Peter Lund, a researcher at Aalto University, and chair of the energy programme at the European Academies’ Science Advisory Council.
On top of this, Nordic energy prices, with the exception of coal, have been dropping since 2010. As a result of such changes, coal-fired power plants are being mothballed and shut all over Finland, leaving coal providing only 8 per cent of the nation’s energy.
Regardless of the favourable circumstances, it would still be radical if Finland became the first country to bring in a law banning coal. That puts it ahead of other nations that have been looking for ways to end their relationship with the fuel.
Several – including the UK, Austria and the Netherlands – have announced plans to phase coal out within 10 or 15 years. France’s prime minister announced last week that the country will shut all its coal plants by 2023.
However, this approach has “more degrees of freedom” than a ban, says Lund.
Canada, for example, announced on Monday that it would phase out traditional coal by 2030. But its roadmap permits provinces to carry on using coal beyond this date provided they reduce emissions with carbon capture and storage.
In March, the US state of Oregon threw its weight behind a tougher measure, writing into state law a measure that bans coal outright. By 2035, according to this law, no utility may produce coal-generated electricity or import it from another state.
Although Finland is expected to make an official announcement of intent tomorrow, the move wouldn’t be set in stone just yet. The energy and climate strategy is due to be presented to the Finnish parliament for approval in March.
But the actions of nations such as Finland, France and Canada show growing global momentum away from coal.

 What's the song "Down for My N's" about?

"Down for My N's" (written and stylized as Down 4 My N's on the Snoop Dogg releases) is a song by C-Murder featuring Snoop Dogg and Magic from Dogg's fourth album, "No Limit Top Dogg" and C-Murder's "Trapped in Crime". Kanye West included an interpolation of this song in his song "Blood on the Leaves", and Khia included an interpolation for her song "Fuck Dem Other Hoes" from her debut album. There are two edited versions of "Down for My N's"; one uses amended lyrics, for example "Touch them other Hittas cause I'm down for my Hittas", which is used on the radio and the other uses an gun sound effect and backmasking to censor swearing, which is on the clean version of the latter albums.

 Explain the gender-neutral public restrooms being proposed for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics.

Tokyo’s metropolitan government is seeking to install gender-neutral public restrooms in the venues it is constructing for the 2020 Olympics and Paralympics.
While daredemo toire (“everyone’s toilets”) suitable for either men or women have existed for several years in Japan, they have previously been designed as larger spaces designed to accommodate patrons in wheelchairs.
The new-concept unisex toilets would be smaller spaces able to accommodate two people but not wheelchairs, the Asahi Shimbun reported. By introducing suitable options for transgender spectators and disabled people, the government hopes to reduce queues for the pre-existing daredemo toire.
Maki Muraki, the head of nonprofit LGBT advocacy group Nijiiro Diversity, praised the government’s embrace of the spirit of inclusivity.
“Along with the effort to increase the number of public toilets, to raise people’s awareness that those who do not look like a typical man or woman can use a toilet as a matter of course is also important,” she told the newspaper.
The announcement comes one week after the Trump administration reversed a piece of federal guidance requiring US transgender students to have unfettered access to bathrooms and locker rooms matching their gender identity.

 Describe the potential collaboration between Tesla and Chargepoint.

Earlier today, Chargepoint announced that they would have a new liquid-cooled 400kW charging station available this summer. In a subsequent video, Chargepoint also showed a Tesla charging handle in one of their stations which was quite a surprise, to us, anyway.
On the Tesla handle, Pascal was dismissive saying that the Tesla part, which was also at the show in the gallery below, was “just for demonstrations purposes”. But behind the scenes, it seems like Chargepoint would love to work with Tesla on providing the handle part to Chargepoint locations and customers. It would seem like the ball is in Tesla’s court there though I have no knowledge of any negotiations here.
Romano noted that if Tesla provided the part, Chargepoint could put native Tesla chargers into multi-port charging stations, which they sell to 3rd party commercial and residential customers. Tesla provides a free Level 2 J1772 to Tesla adapter which most Tesla owners keep in their glove box so this might not be a priority for Tesla. However, when using the adapter, which can also be purchased aftermarket, the owner must manually open the charge port because neither the J1772 nor the adapter can invoke the Tesla Charge port bay opening.
The demonstration at the show and the working model, above, is for the Level 2 AC charger but the indications we got were that Chargepoint would be willing and able to put Tesla handles on its fast DC charging stations. Tesla’s 50kW CHAdeMO adapter is a $450 add on for Model S owners. However, the possibility is particularly enticing, especially when Chargepoint was demonstrating a 400kW DC charging station at its CES Booth.

 Explain how Bitcore works and why it is beneficial for businesses and developers. Respond in detail.

Earlier this month Microsoft announced our addition to their new blockchain as a service (BaaS) platform hosted on the cloud service Azure. Our open source Bitcoin full node and development platform Bitcore is the first Bitcoin service available for Azure users.
We built Bitcore to lower the barrier to entry to Bitcoin development. Whether you want to help build Bitcoin's peer to peer network or build better Bitcoin infrastructure for your company, running a full node is the best way to get started. Running Bitcore on the Azure cloud will make hosting a node even easier by getting rid of the need for local, dedicated machines.
Bitcore provides a comprehensive set of Node.js language libraries for extending Bitcoin's functionality. It also comes with a native set of utilities that allow users to test and develop Bitcoin services without relying on third party APIs for querying the blockchain. Along with Bitcore's full node, this reduces the requirement for trust and removes single points of failure for companies running Bitcoin services.
A Bitcore node's direct access to the blockchain via its native bindings to Bitcoind makes Bitcore-based services 20X faster than those using JSON-RPC. That's a significant performance improvement for services that rely on blockchain data, from payment processors and exchanges to block explorers.
We've already implemented Bitcore as the backend for our own bitcoin wallet Copay. Users can choose to connect directly to private Bitcoin nodes using our Bitcore Wallet Service, which includes a command line client made for business users.
Bitcore's service architecture also makes it possible to create new types of applications for the Bitcoin blockchain, from issuing digital assets to proving ownership of digital files.
Start building out Bitcoin infrastructure in your own project or company with the easiest way to run a Bitcoin full node. Check out our quickstart page for running a full node and block explorer with Bitcore and use our detailed guides to get up and running fast with other services. If you have any feedback, let us know on our forums.

 Explain how Daniels Corporation created an Accessibility Designed Program to help owners with restricted mobility access their condo units. Respond in 21 sentences.

When Luke Anderson bought his downtown Toronto condo in 2008, he couldn’t get in the front door.
Anderson, 39, has used a wheelchair since a 2002 biking accident left him fully paralyzed in his legs and partially in his arms.
“I was all of a sudden introduced to a world that’s not well-suited for someone with a mobility issue,” says Anderson, who founded the StopGap Foundation for accessibility advocacy.
Without an automatic door opener at street level or at his unit’s entrance, Anderson’s mobility was tested. Once inside, he couldn’t wheel through the door frame to the bathroom where there was a bathtub he couldn’t easily use. Still, he bought the unit and spent about $15,000 retrofitting his new home. At that time there were few options for someone with mobility needs.
Today, Anderson has partnered with Daniels Corporation as a consultant in the developer’s new Accessibility Designed Program (ADP), launching this month at The Wesley in Mississauga City Centre, DuEast development in Regent Park, and all future Daniels projects. Rather than retrofit units, the program offers condo units with accessibility in mind from the design stage, at no extra cost.
Despite a 2015 amendment to Ontario’s Building Code that mandates 15 per cent of units in a development be “barrier free,” Anderson’s problem is still common for people with mobility needs.
Daniels Corp. consulted Anderson for their new initiative and asked him to do a “roll-through” of a unit in a High Park-area building to spot potential problems for those with mobility needs. He found quite a few: doorways he couldn’t get through, balconies he couldn’t access, showers he couldn’t roll into, counters and cabinets too high to reach.
The consultation was enlightening for Daniels staff, such as Jake Cohen, vice president of implementation.
So Daniels set to work with the help of Quadrangle Architects’ AccessAbility Advantage team, a sub-consultancy group focused on accessibility. Now, all future developments will include power-operated entry doors; wider doorways with a minimum 34-inch clearance; balconies with swing doors and low-threshold, roll-out access; increased clearance between cabinets and islands; at least one bathroom with a roll-in shower, handheld faucet, grab bars and seat, as well as undersink knee clearance.
For an additional $5,000, buyers can request further design enhancements to the kitchen, including: undersink and cooktop knee clearance; counters at 34 inches (about 3 feet) high; a side-opening oven; a pull-out counter below the stove; a double-door fridge; a dishwasher drawer.
Accessible features will be added to common areas, too, including lower concierge desks, increased clearances, and power door operators to all building entrances and common areas.
“I hope that (this project) is a catalyst for change to thinking about how developments should be unravelling,” says Lorene Casiez accessibility specialist with Quadrangle Architects.
Anderson knows the issue is bigger than him. What will happen, he asks, when aging baby boomer parents can’t have dinner at their kids’ home because it’s a townhome with stairs out front?
Video illustrating Daniels Corp.'s new Accessibility Designed Program that will see condo units built and designed with features for owners with restricted mobility.
