Testing the Un-Testable

As developers, we are often faced with legacy code bases that were never designed with unit testing in mind. Of course, we now know the value of unit tests and we want to test as much as possible. A good place to start implementing tests in old code is to write tests around each bug and feature. Do not try to refactor the entire pile of rubble, but instead begin with tests around just the code you are adding or changing.

Here I will show you a simple technique to refactor “just enough” to get some tests running without introducing unacceptable risk in your modifications. The examples with be in C#, but the technique applies everywhere.

I’ll Make My Lunch To Go

I’m blowing up on Instagram. Seriously. Cooking With Bells On officially has, wait for it… nineteen followers. That’s right, of the service’s 200 million odd users, nearly twenty of them (twenty of you) have boldly clicked “Follow” and become pioneers in the Insta’ With Bells On movement.

Okay, perhaps I’m being a bit dramatic here, but I am genuinely surprised by how much I find myself liking this particular social media platform, one which I resisted using for so long. It’s been a few days now that I’ve been posting as Cooking With Bells On’s intrepid iPhone photographer, and in that time I’ve made a special effort to preserve moments I might otherwise allow to pass. I’ve captured evidence of my mid-day cappuccino quests*, sniped images of loitering kitchen appliances, and shot outtakes of my adorable schnauzer in the morning. And I’ve diligently collected photographs of the food coming out of my kitchen, too, because I know that’s what you really want to see.

Screenshot 2014-03-28 11.32.28

Of the food-centric Instagrams I’ve shared, those involving pictures of my daily lunches have accumulated extra attention, with consistent “likes” and responses from my small but dedicated army of followers. Given this attention, I thought I’d go ahead and share with you just what I’ve been making in my kitchen lately for this meal.

Lunch, as I make it for myself, is generally a humble meal, cobbled together of leftover vegetable scraps and pantry staples. I make an effort to make the meal as nourishing as possible, though to tell you the truth this isn’t a difficult task, as the ingredients I like to keep on hand tend to be of the delicious and good-for-you variety anyways. And, while I do savor the time I take to prepare something good in the morning, I never really use more than a few minutes to put it all together. It’s a simple task, though one worth finding delight in.

*I’m on a mission to visit all of the coffee shops listed on the New York Times’ The Scoop app. So far, I’ve checked off 27 (or 35, if you include places I visited but were later retired from the list) out of 112.

Salmon Avocado Salad (In a Jar) with Endive

Photo Mar 27, 12 20 58 PM

The only real condition I have for making lunch is that I be able to carry the finished product with me in a small jar. Back in the day, this restraint made good sense for a girl carrying her lunch to the office. Now office life is history to me, and the logic for lunch in a jar is kind of gone, too, but for some reason I still prefer to make my meal this way.

This recipe is just a framework for how I make lunch, and you should feel free to get creative with it. Here I used salmon as a protein, though I use canned sardines just as often, and sometimes hard-boiled eggs or leftover chicken instead. I almost always include avocado, which I like for its flavor, texture, and color; but the other vegetables included change depending on the season and what I have in my fridge. Two things you shouldn’t leave out are fresh herbs and citrus. Both play a huge role in brightening the whole thing up, which becomes especially important if you plan on eating several hours after you’ve made the lunch.

A note on home-made mayonnaise: it is totally optional in this dish, but I’ll go ahead and say that I am pro-mayonnaise, especially when it is home-made. I could really geek out over how good this mayonnaise is for you, what with its bounty of egg yolks and healthful oil. But I’m not here to be on a “don’t-fear-fat” soapbox. I do recommend that if you make it, try to use a more non-inflammatory fat, such as MCT oil or macadamia oil, but you could also go the conventional route and use a neutral-tasting oil such as grapeseed or canola oil. You could also use store-bought mayonnaise, but where’s the fun in that? If you decide to omit the mayonnaise (which I often do, anyways), I suggest bulking up the lunch with some salad greens and just using some oil and vinegar as dressing.

Photo Mar 27, 11 55 49 AM

Mayonnaise, preferably home-made (see recipe below)
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup (or more) diced vegetables: golden beet (used here), or: radish, cucumber, tomato, zucchini, carrot, etc.
Salmon, fresh and cooked (leftovers) or canned (I used about 1/4 of a 14.5 oz can here, saving the leftovers for another day’s lunch)
1 tsp fresh herbs, chopped: dill (used here), or: tarragon, basil, mint, cilantro, parsley, etc.
1/2 a lemon, zest reserved (optional)
1 endive, washed and outer leaves removed

Photo Mar 27, 12 02 12 PM

To make lunch in a jar: Stir together a few spoonfuls of mayonnaise with one spoonful of mustard and a pinch of salt and freshly ground pepper in a small jar. Add the diced vegetables, salmon, herbs, and lemon juice and zest (if using). Mix to combine. Trim bottom inch of the endive to separate leaves. Twist lid onto jar, pack up endives, and head to a park or sunny corner of your office to enjoy.

Home-made Mayonnaise

The miso here is a new addition for me. Miso pretty much makes everything better – saltier and more complex – and I highly suggest using it if you have some around.

Photo Mar 27, 11 21 34 AM

2 egg yolks
1/4 cup neutral oil: MCT oil (used here) is usually found in the supplements section of the store (or Amazon.com) and has the dual merits of extremely neutral flavor as well as superfood status, or: macadamia oil, grapeseed oil, canola oil.
1 tbsp white miso (optional)
1/2 lemon, or less

To prepare mayonnaise: Using a blender (or an immersion blender with the jar in which you intend to store the mayonnaise), combine the egg yolks, oil, and white miso. Add lemon and salt to taste. The finished mayonnaise will taste rich, but balanced.

Grow Your Own Mushroom Dome makes things even easier

Now, if you have ever thought of getting some of those green fingers going in your home garden, now that you have some more free time to kill that you are retired, think again. Perhaps the lack of a green touch in your fingers would make it even impossible to grow mushrooms, which do seem as though they are pretty easy – just leave them alone in some damp place, and voila! It will look as though the mushrooms will sprout overnight. However, things are not that simple in real life, which is why the Grow Your Own Mushroom Dome is available.

With the Grow Your Own Mushroom Dome, things do get a little bit more systematic, and with that, you will be able to harvest your very own mushrooms in due time. In fact, this bad boy allows you to enjoy multiple crops of mushrooms, and these mushrooms will not work like those in Mario’s universe, which means you will not end up like some Alice in Wonderland freak and change size, or to start seeing things. It is as easy to grow as a potted plant, and each Mushroom Dome can yield anywhere from 1 to 2 pounds of fresh, edible mushrooms, where it boasts of adequate instructions to get even the nervous beginner started.

JS8Call integration log JS8

Hello Conceptors and all OM,

As I using the new digimode JS8Call, I would like to know if Cqrlog plan on this mode addition ?

At the moment Adif don't yet reconize the JS8, probably because it's still in pre-release at this moment.
This mode seems growing up slowly but surely and at this time as I can't use Data (not find in the mode list) I don't know the right way to declare the contact I've established.
So as it starts as FT8Call and as I've began to log with "FT8" I will be interested if a kind of automatic log integration would have been possible in the nearest future like in JT9, JT65, FT8.
The QSO could be from 2mn till 50mn in my case, and it seems there is not really "start key" and "final keys" as we can find in FT8 with CQ & 73 and I had them manually.

So regarding the other OM habits, how do you log your JS8 QSO's when Data Mode is not avaliable ?
How do you proceed to digitally record your JS8 QSO's ?
I deeply apologize if such question already exist or if I'm in wrong forum's section, I'm really curious to learn more about this point.

Enjoy all your day/evening !
73 de William

JS8Call integration log JS8

You can set "user digital modes" (comma separated) from preferences. Then you can manually record your qsos with right mode.
Jsi udp api seems now to be jsonrpc but they warn that it might change to http or xmlrpc. So there is no mind to develop interface for it until it is sure that they will keep it without change.
My opinion is that they should either use similar xmlrpc format as fldigi, or similar udp messaging that wsjtx uses. That way the interface would be ready in cqrlog ( and also other loggers that now support fldigi or wsjtx).

Untill that either manual logging or importing js8 adif files is the way.

Hello Saku,

Hello Saku,
I'm warmly thank you for this nice detailed answer.
With my Best Regards

How to add a submode ?

The ADIF Comitee (3.0.9 Part III B10) has statued on JS8Call QSO records.
The spec are < MODE: 4 >MFSK < SUBMODE:3 >JS8

So i've exported the Adif files from CQRLOG (2.3.0) and opened it with a text editor.
The QSO are already recorded in MFSK Mode.
So with editor text using function "search and replace", < MODE:4 >MFSK is selected and replaced with < MODE:4 >MFSK < SUBMODE:3 >JS8.
But when the modified files is re-imported in CQRLOG the < SUBMODE:3 >JS8 is cleaned. Only < MODE:4 >MFSK stays.

So how could I add a submode in the CQRLOG adif files ?

I thank you in advance.

Note: it's writen without the spaces, they're added here to allow the publication in the post without being detected as HTML code.

submode function is not yet implemented in cqrlog.
- cqrlog uses internally only mode.
- the database table for qso logs have only mode field (no submode field)
- in the modes-array variable there are submodes and modes mixed (MFSK16 is implemented as mode, but it is a submode).

So there are two ways:

the long:
- implement a new field submode in cqrlog_main table
- correct the mode array and create a submode array
- extend the new qso mask with submode field
- rewrite adif import and adif export functionality

the short:
- put JS8 as mode in the mode array variable
- make a dirty fix for the adif import and the adif export to write/read mode and submodefield

think that has to be discussed between the developer and decided by the main developer.

55&73 de DL7OAP, Andreas

Thanks !

Thank you Andreas DL7OAP for your answer.
As you've mentioned, it will be safer to wait the discussion between the main developers.

Then at this time simply export the adif, search and replace < mode:4 >MFSK < submode:3 >JS8
and manually upload to all the logbooks.
Enjoy your day.

Bobbin lace cushion carry bag pattern

I have finally finished writing up my bobbin lace cushion carry bag pattern! It took me such a long time I have had to make it into a paid for pattern on my website. For pattern click here. The pattern comes as a PDF document so you don't have to pay any postage! The bag is for 18-20inch bobbin lace cushions. It includes two pockets (one inside and one zipped outer pocket).

Different colour combinations of fabric really make it look quite different. Here is the link to the pattern on my shop.

Counter Punch magazine finally ditches women?

Hmmm. Interesting. Consider this:

For the last two weeks, pseudo-Marxist Counter Punch magazine has published not one article by women.

Now, don’t you go on thinking it’s a serendipitous event. And before anyone raises the misogynistic argument that Counter Punch doesn’t engage in Affirmative Action for women, consider the following.

The ‘left’ has declared a war on ALL women movements. You can read on this blog some instances of misogyny exploding on online ‘leftists’ magazines like a pimple on a teenager’s face.

From bashing the Women’s March on Washington D.C. for committing the crime of being openly anti-Trump, to officially branding the #metoo movement as “right-wing”, the men on the ‘left’ completely identify with the fear of that king of misogyny, Trump, that women are out to attack men.

One of the sorriest recent example of men identifying with Trump was Kanye’s cooing for Trump.

Not all men are identifying with Trump, but the many (or few?) who do come from all walks of life: blacks, Latinos, poor, wealthy, white, educated, uneducated, scientists, entertainers…

Image result for misogynist men

That’s so funny I even had to go and stick some needles on a Borat look-alike doll’s genitals.

So the saga of the pseudo-leftsists’s turn to unite with the misogynistic right-wing continues.

I’ll try to keep you posted.

Trump should thank ‘Black male’ voters and Misogyny

Yes, the WaPo reports that Trump said, correctly, I may add, Trump says blacks who stayed home were ‘almost as good’ as those who voted for him.

The “big league” fact ignored by the WaPo in the statistics it included with the article is that, per official reports, 98% of black women voted for Hillary Clinton. The political significance of that fact should be as clear to see as the sun on a cloudless sky; but I know it isn’t to many folks.

Don’t blame them for missing the huge point; the media, MSM and leftists alike, succeeded in keeping most people blind to their stealthy war against women during the elections. They would never ask this question in that article or any:

Who were the “blacks” who stayed at home or voted for Trump? The numbers tell you it was male black voters.

I propose to you that that  answer would have being a ground-shaking event.

It would have forced open the door to the discussion about misogyny and anti-feminism in the presidential campaign. And we all know that violence against half the world’s population can NEVER become the main issue in any struggle for political power. It must, per tradition, be relegated to the last-before-animals-rights list of things to take care of.

I’ll even go Kamakaze on you: I propose, and intent to prove in an upcoming post, that this presidential election cycle was a battle against a feminist presidency.

It is a fact  that Trump ran on his alpha-male, “high energy” (meaning ‘testosterone’), ‘ruthless man of business’ image, a modern El Duce image, while Hillary Clinton ran on an out-of-the-closet feminism: let’s give hope to our daughters kind of message. She meant ‘let’s stop treating women as garbage’ and “women’s rights are human rights, and human rights are women rights“.

That men saw her campaign as focusing on feminism and were not pleased by it was stated in their ‘analysis’ of why she lost: “she lost because she focused on feminist issues”. Sanders said it, I mentioned it on this blog.

For the moment, keep in mind that at the top of the list of issues discussed in this presidential election cycle was a struggle to empower women. All that Hillary-hating was part of that struggle.

Six Month Smiles® in Vancouver, WA

ve given us several alternative options for straightening teeth. At Creative Smiles in Vancouver, WA, Dr. Carl Futenma offers Six Month Smiles for patients desiring discreet orthodontic treatment with fast results.

About Six Month Smiles

Most dentists agree that traditional braces are incredibly effective for providing a beautiful, functional, and healthy smile. Six Month Smiles is a revolutionary orthodontic treatment that modifies the most efficient aspects of traditional braces to give older teens and adults an aesthetically-pleasing and convenient solution.

Like traditional braces, the Six Month Smiles system is comprised of wires and brackets. In this case, however, the brackets are clear, and the nickel titanium wires are tooth-colored, making them virtually unnoticeable to others. As the name suggests, treatment can typically be completed in approximately six months.

Who is a Candidate for Six Month Smiles?

Six Month Smiles is an effective treatment that can address a variety of orthodontic issues. You may be a candidate if you have:

  • Crooked teeth
  • Crowded teeth
  • Rotated teeth
  • Spacing or gapped teeth
  • An overbite
  • An underbite
  • A cross bite

It is important to note that Six Month Smiles does have limitations, and it is not an appropriate treatment for everyone. During an initial consultation with Dr. Futenma, he will determine which orthodontic options will address your specific dental needs. Because our team embraces a philosophy of comprehensive care, we believe it is important to choose an option that will address function and health in addition to aesthetics. Choosing the appropriate orthodontic treatment option can help you invest in your oral health for years to come.

Benefits of Six Month Smiles

Six Month Smiles offers numerous advantages when compared to traditional metal braces. These include:

  • Quicker Treatment Time: Six Month Smiles utilizes the latest in technology and techniques to move teeth quickly and safely. The primary focus of treatment is moving the teeth in your “smile zone”, or the teeth that show when you smile.
  • Virtually Invisible: With clear brackets and tooth-colored wires, Six Month Smiles is barely noticeable.
  • Conservative and Effective: Even though Six Month Smiles can move your teeth at an accelerated rate, the treatment itself is still conservative. This treatment is no more aggressive than traditional orthodontics.
  • Comfortable: Many patients assume that orthodontic treatment with Six Month Smiles will be more uncomfortable due to the rapid tooth movement. However, this treatment utilizes the same mechanics as traditional braces, so discomfort will be minimal.
  • Easier Hygiene: Proper oral hygiene can be a challenge while wearing braces. Because this orthodontic treatment can be completed in about six months, it poses less risk of decay.
  • More Affordable: Typically, Six Month Smiles is more affordable that alternative orthodontic options, such as traditional braces.

Maintaining Your Smile after Treatment

Any time you complete orthodontic treatment, a retainer must be worn to maintain your progress. While braces can effectively move teeth roots, they are unable to move the ligaments surrounding the teeth. Therefore, if a retainer is not worn, the teeth can gradually move back to their original positions over time. Patients can choose between a removable retainer or a permanent retainer that can be bonded to the back of the teeth. Dr. Futenma can help you decide which option will work best with your lifestyle.

Contact Us to Learn More about Six Month Smiles

If you are looking for a short term orthodontic option, Six Month Smiles may be the solution for you. To schedule a consultation with Dr. Futenma, call our office at (360) 574-3061 or contact us online anytime.

Josephine’s Journal
The Account of an Indentured Servant’s Adventures with the Crewe of the Archangel

April 25

April, typically a relaxing Month before the Hustle of the Pirate-hunting Season, has brought us to Jamestown at the behest of the Vigilant Crewe with whom we often work closely. They are attending to Business in the port City and the Crewe of the Archangel has joined them. Dorian and I made the familiar Journey from Carolina, stopping only once to obtain Monsieur Cyphers from Hampton, and arrived in Town late this Afternoon under dark Skies and in pouring Rain. We were greeted by Capitain McGuyver, his Wife, Nancy, and several of the Vigilant Crewe Members.

We were surprised to be welcomed as well as by two of our own Archangel Crewe Members, Monsieur Atlas and Monsieur Knyff who had not been expected to join us until Morning.
Following a multitude of Greetings, we quickly unloaded the Carriage and as we readied our Room we received Word from Capitaine Sterling that he and Fionn were to arrive in Town no later than Midnight. The Capitaine’s Message also carried a somber Piece of News: a beloved Member of the Community had passed away that Afternoon following a two year Battle with Illness. Capitaine Sterling asked that we make this News known to all present. The News was heavily received, and Silence took hold of the small Gathering of Sailors for more than a few Moments. T’is never easy to learn of the Passing of those we hold dear, but being with those of like Mind and Understanding made the News easier to bear.
After all present were settled in our Rooms, we made our way to a local Establishment both for Dinner and to toast the Life of our recently departed Friend. By then the Rain was slowing to a Drizzle and we had all begun to dry out from the Deluge that had occurred not but a couple of Hours prior. Dinner was plentiful and filling, and the Company was most heartily enjoyed; however, a damp Weariness was taking its hold on each of us. As the Food and Drink were nearly gone, the Table quieted and we knew that it was time for us to depart. As we arrived back at our Room, we received Word that Capitaine Sterling and Fionntan Murtaugh had arrived and they were making themselves comfortable in their respective Rooms. As I write this, I am perched in front of the Fire prepared for bed while Dorian checks in on Capitaine Sterling. The damp Weather reminds me of Home and I find myself dozing off every now and again with thoughts of what feels like Lives past.

April 26

We awoke this Morning and, after readying ourselves, made our way to the local Tavern for a light morning Meal. The Sun was bright, the Skies clear, and the Area was drying out from the Rains of yesterday. My Demeanor had brightened some as well, as I was off to the Shops near the Docks. I had been given an Invitation to meet with a family-trained Apothecary and spend the Day discussing the Trade with her while Dorian saw to his Duties as Master Gunner. I was somewhat Nervous, as my Training was informal at best in the Arts of Herbs, and my Knowledge is limited to those Herbs with which I am familiar. As I stepped into the Shop and looked around, I was met with the Aroma of dried Herbs and a smiling Apothecary greeting me from the Counter.
The Conversation in the Shop was much more relaxed than I had anticipated as she and I discussed our various Experiences with Herbs and making herbal Remedies, the Storage of our Herbs, and the Resources available should we ever need to use Herbs with which we are not familiar. After spending the Day orally compiling our Information, we concluded that perhaps we need to once again meet and create a Resource that could be then shared with the general Public. I left the Shop today feeling enlightened and hopeful that both she and I could benefit from such a Partnership, should our Circumstances favor such an Undertaking.
Following a lovely Dinner in the Tavern, some members of the Crewe joined with Vigilant Crew for Songs by the Fire. The rest of the Archangel Crewe, myself included, sat in a Corner listening to the Songs and holding friendly Conversation. After some time had passed, we realized that Clouds had covered the Sky and that it was beginning to rain. Dorian and I returned to our Room where I am now writing this entry and he is organizing the sea chest. Tomorrow, after some last minute business, we will once again return to the south road and our cottage in Carolina.

April 27

With a little more Time today I wanted to take in the Atmosphere of the Town before we departed. I donned my sailor’s Attire and wandered the Town as “Joseph” Legard, greeting others on the Street who were none the wiser. The Town was made up of a variety of Shops and Activities, with most of the Activity centered around the Tavern and the Docks. In the Tavern, Patrons were taking part in card Games while snacking on Fruit and Biscuits and drinking the available Beverages; on the Docks, Sailors were splicing Lines and testing repaired log Lines in the Water; a Woman was attending to Laundry at the end of the Dock; Captain McGuyver and other Vigilant Crew members were attending to business in his office on the docks; Capitaine Sterling could be found attending to business with Cargo costs and taxes; Monsieur Lasseter was attending to the cleaning and maintenance of the Firearms and edged Weapons; Vigilant Crew members were handling the Shot and various other Weapons; The Archangel's Blacksmith chatting with the Vigilant's Heidiand Members of both Crewes could found helping in the Kitchen.
As the Work was completed, we all began to pack up our Belongings for our individual journeys home. Dorian, Adam, and I were permitted to leave as early as possible, as News had reached us of foul Weather at Home while we were away which carried the Potential of damaging our Property. After saying our Goodbyes, which is always the most difficult Part of an event, we made our way South to Carolina. The Journey was smooth, and we arrived Home slightly earlier than anticipated, finding that only a Flag perched on our Home had been damaged; the worst of it had been East of our Cottage.

When officials from the CDC first encountered longhorned ticks, there were so many crawling in the grass that the investigators found the bugs crawling all over their pants within a few minutes. Thousands of them filled the sheep paddock inspectors were there to examine, where a single ewe lived along with thousands of tiny roommates.

Longhorned ticks weren’t previously known to live in the U.S., much less to live on a solitary sheep in Hunterdon, New Jersey that had never traveled outside of the country. She hadn’t even left the propertyin years. Yet here was a bug that wasn't supposed to exist on this continent—in droves.

After the sheep’s owner brought some tick samples to the CDC back in August 2017, the agency started digging a little deeper. Asian longhorned ticks (so-called because they’re native to East Asia), or Haemaphysalis longicornis, are on the list of prohibited critters that border inspections are supposed to catch. Over the years, U.S. ports of entry have intercepted the bugs at least 15 times. But once the CDC started looking for the ticks, they found evidence that the critters have spread to at least eight states—New Jersey, Virginia, West Virginia, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and Maryland—and are popping up on a variety of hosts, from people to pets to livestock. It’s the first invasive tick to enter the U.S. in 80 years. While they are not in Southern California yet, it's only a matter of time before they make their way west.

So far the ticks haven’t caused any diseases that we know of, but the CDC is still trying to contain the spread as much as possible. In Asia, longhorned ticks can carry all kinds of infectious parasites and bacteria, including Anaplasma, Babesia, Borrelia, Ehrlichia, and Rickettsia. All of those agents also exist in the U.S., which means any ticks that end up here could help propagate the diseases to livestock and potentially even to humans.

The main threat is really to cattle, though, not people. In New Zealand and Australia, dairy cows infested with longhorned ticks produce up to 25 percent less milk, which though not ideal (and potentially catastrophic to a farmer’s business) isn’t even the worst thing these bugs can do. Some cattle get swarmed with ticks so fast they die of exsanguination—the ticks drain the cow’s blood so fast they die.

Nothing that dramatic has happened in the U.S., but that’s no reason to think it couldn’t in the future. The ticks have already been here much longer than we thought. After the sheep infestation in 2017, CDC officials went back to look at archived samples of ticks found in similar areas in the past and found that one pulled from a West Virginia deer in 2010 was actually H. longicornis, as was a tick found on a dog in New Jersey in 2013. The very fact that every life stage from egg to larva to adult was found on the original sheep was enough to concern CDC researchers at the time, since it meant the ticks had been there long enough to go through multiple cycles of reproduction.

H. longicorniscan produce anywhere from 1 to 2,000 offspring at once, and it doesn’t even need a buddy to get the job done. Longhorned ticks are capable of parthenogenesis, a kind of reproduction in which female adults can produce eggs with two copies of each gene. Normally, animals that mate require a sperm cell to provide the other half of the genetic material to make a diploid cell (one with two copies of each gene). Longhorned ticks don’t need sperm. They just make viable eggs on their own, spreading thousands of baby ticks out into the world without a tick man to help them.

Though you personally shouldn’t be too worried about catching a disease from H longicornis, if you live in an area prone to ticks you should always use insect repellent when you go into the woods and wear long pants to prevent bugs from attaching to your legs as you walk by. If you do find one, remove it as quickly as possible to reduce your risk of contracting a tick-borne illness. If you’ve got pets, check their fur for bugs regularly and use anti-tick and -flea medicine. And if you live in one of the areas that H. longicornishas been found and happen to see a tick, save it in a small container or ziploc baggie inside rubbing alcoholand contact your state’s public health department. Some states are collecting samples from the public so they can track this growing problem.

Welcome to our blog, a creative space for free thinking, ideas and inspiration!

RRSP or no RRSP, that is the question!

Categories: Food for thought

Posted on 03-09-17 at 8:15 p.m.

With the dreaded tax season just around the corner, CROP thought it quite fitting in February to ask Quebec workers about their attitudes and perceptions with regard to their retirement. Here’s what we learned:

Contributing to a pension plan…
a matter of generation

On the whole, more than one in every two Quebec workers have access to a pension fund through their employer and surprisingly, it is older workers who have less of an opportunity to contribute to an RRSP through work.

For the 2016 fiscal year, the 35-54 year-old cohort were more assiduous in securing their retirement by contributing to their RRSP (47% before February) or by intending to do so before March 1st, while one in two workers aged 55 or more have no intention this year to put money into a pension plan.

It seems as if 55+ year-olds are, on the whole, less inclined today toward retirement planning, maybe it’s because they’ve already done so and no longer need to worry about it?

A majority of Quebec workers are optimistic about their financial situation at retirement

Our survey results reveal that men are the most optimistic about their financial circumstances when comes the time for them to retire.

Obviously enough, workers who currently contribute to an RRSP are, on the whole, more confident about a financially secure retirement than those who do not.

All the more reason to keep up with those RRSP payments!

Going to auctions, saving horses from different horrible situations somehow, replays quite the same in my head. I see their faces, how they almost instinctively know we have come to save them. They reach out with what strength they have left and briefly touch a soft nose to us as if saying “please take me.” You may hear a half hearted nicker as you pass their stall or just watch them stand there in a blank space of sheer miserable survival.

Often times you see the before and after photos and stories of successful transformations. I see the honest, scared soul moments before they get saved all throughout their time with us.  There is a rawness of vulnerability in looking at each other in such a place. And there we stand human and horse looking back at each other. Us pretending to be brave for them, and them standing there a silent defeated being living on hope alone.

And I think many times no one stops to consider how the animal is not so much feeling but also thinking. The emotional toll of what being starved to death will take on any soul. How scary it must be, to be dumped away from everything you know to be familiar. Even scarier to not know where your going. To have no previous training and then suddenly need to be perfect… or else. The confusion and hunger run together in their minds all while still needing to listen and work. Then the void of nothingness, the waiting, still no food… no water… more… waiting… for days. Weeks. Month’s no one has come… maybe tomorrow…

And they hope, they shut down, cling to whatever they can to get by. It takes some time for the very worst cases to emotionally come back. The horses starved to death will stand in their stalls with empty, blank eyes for weeks before they decide to let the walls down.

Rescuing horses isn’t about the pictures, the success stories, the bigger story to get noticed. It’s about being able to pull a lost soul out of the depths of their own personal hell. Rehab their whole body, heart and mind. It’s hours upon hours of neverending work for absolutely no personal gain whatsoever. Other than knowing you’ve made a difference to that one horse.

“The very purpose of our lives is happiness, which is sustained by hope. We have no guarantee about our future but we exist in the hope of something better.” ~Dalia Lama

    It must be so hard to go through so many emotions. When Sparrow finally arrived I wanted to cry. It was confusing for her and you could see the distrust in her eyes. Today Brittany was able to braid her mane and put a halter on her- It was a bit comical watching Sparrow put her face into every corner to try to hide. She will approach the gate to her stall if I stand there with my hands behind my back and once in a while she lets me pet her. Patience is going to be the key and that is our plan for Sparrow. We want her to learn how to trust and be loved.

Coinbase Shutting Down Their Bitcoin Tipping Service

11 Feb

The Bitcoin payment service provider Coinbase has just announced their plans to stop their Coinbase Tip service that allows users to easily send Bitcoin tips to other people, to support projects or causes and so on. The Coinbase Tip service will be available by the end of March and meanwhile Coinbase suggests that users of the service migrate to the alternative ChangeTip. According to the service there are about 10 thousand users of Coinbase Tip, though they probably expected that the tipping functionality will attract much more users than what is has in the bit less than 3 months timeframe that it has existed and that is the reason they are shutting it down. Interestingly enough ChangeTip actually relies on Coinbase APIs for their tipping service, so no wonder they are the recommended alternative, not to mention that ChangeTip is apparently doing much better than Coinbase Tip.

To check out the recommended alternative Bitcoin tipping service called ChangeTip…

What are forks?

What are blockchain forks? The blockchain, which is the underlying innovation Bitcoin, is a distributed ledger made up of blocks of information that is continually growing, forming a single chain of blocks. Considering that Bitcoin is a decentralized network, participants in the system need to settle on a standard set of rules to validate the transactions, to accomplish consensus. That means it can end with a single chain of confirmed information that everybody agrees is correct, or a separate reality.

blockchain forks

What are soft forks?

A soft fork is a like a software upgrade that is in reverse. It works with  older variations. This indicates that individuals that did not upgrade to the brand-new software application will still be able to take part in verifying and confirming transactions. It is much simpler to execute a soft fork as just a bulk of participants need to update the software application. All participants, whether they’ve upgraded or not will continue to maintain and acknowledge brand-new blocks compatibility with the network. A point to bear in mind is that the performance of a non-upgraded individual is affected.

What are hard forks?

Hard forks are like soft forks, but not compatible with earlier models. All nodes on the network should update to the new software to continue taking part and validating brand-new transactions. Those who didn’t update would be separated from the network and can not verify the original transactions. This separation results in a long-term split in the blockchain network. As long as there is support in the minority chain– in the type of participants mining in the chain– the two chains will simultaneously exist. (See more: Guide to Verifying Cryptocurrency Transactions).

Can anyone create a fork?

Anybody can go to GitHub, grab the code of a coin (for example Bitcoin), and then do the development work required to update the software. Not anybody can get enough miners to mine the brand-new coin, enough users to upgrade their software application or download wallets for the coin, and enough exchanges to list it. There have been really few successful forked coins in the history of cryptocurrency.

How to get free tokens

You check out that! Hard forks are popular in the crypto community because it means they will get free tokens. The duplication of the blockchain caused by  the hard fork gives holders of the old blockchain the right to to receive new coins from the brand-new chain. There are many approaches to getting these forked coins that include (however aren’t restricted to). You can receiving them through airdrops, or you can switch your node toward the brand-new forked network. Finally, you can disperse the private keys to the brand-new network.

An app to help relax

The goal of this app is to help people “destress, refocus, and recharge anywhere, anytime as part of their normal lives.” Another goal is that anyone will be able to mediate without a master. These goals are assuming humans constantly have something they need to be de-stressed and relaxed for. It also assumes humans can give full trust to our cell phones to guide us through an ancient and what is meant to be a very deep practice.

Inverted Goal

The inverted goal is to create an app that disrupts you when you are not moving and seem to be in a relaxed state.  The app will track your heart rate and when you are the most relaxed an alarm will sound to bring your heart rate up to a higher pace.

My design assumes that people could be so calm to the point of needing an alarm to bring them to a anxious state of mind. I do not think anyone would really have any interest in this app as it would really only cause people more issues.  People are constantly in a state of anxiety these days so an app that would cause more anxiety would be extremely pointless. I don’t think this design follows any of Senger’s design principles, it’s only making life more complicated for people and most likely ruining the user experience.

Inverting Metaphors

The original goal of Google’s new emojis is to make the emojis compatible across android and apple products. My inverted goal was to then make emojis as incompatible as possible to the point that when you send an emoji from an android to an iPhone the only thing that would appear was a complicated code involving numbers and letters. The only way to figure out what those numbers an letters mean is to buy my amazing The Book of Emojis where you can look up your code and see what emoji was sent.

My design assumes that people are desperate enough to want to buy an Emoji book just to translate what they are receiving over text. Communication is an important part of life and Emojis have become such a huge part of that this book might actually be worth the purchase. I could definitely see a high school or middle school student (generation Z) wanting to purchase this because Emojis have almost always been a part of texting for them. If this design were to be executed it would definitely make communication more complicated and time intensive, which is completely opposite of what emojis and text messages were made for. Technology affects our daily lives, if something were to change even as minor as emoji compatibility it could complicate how we operate from day to day. Sometimes I send texts with just emojis and no words, the android user would either have to buy my book to figure out what I was saying or have to ask me what I said, which takes more time than just being able to see the emoji. I would say this design follows none of Senger’s design principles, it’s complicating something that already exists and is completely ruining the user the experience. Reflective design is completely based around the user, this emoji book goes the complete opposite way and designs for the company to make more money.

Apple Debuts the new Series 3 Apple Watch, now with Cellular

The goal of the Apple Watch is to “free you from your phone.” The new Series 3 has LTE built in, so you can make calls, receive messages, and use all of the other functions without having your phone nearby. The watch isn’t meant to replace a phone, but rather allows people to get essential calls and messages without added distractions.

The inverted goal would be to design a watch that ties people to their phone even more.

In my imagined design, the watch and phone would only function if they were within extremely close proximity to each other. The watch could alert the user about incoming messages, calls, and prompt the phone to do things (such as open the camera), but none of these functions would be operational on the watch (ex: you cant respond to a message from the watch.) This would cause the user to rely fully on the phone.

The opposite goal assumes people want to be highly connected to their phones, and are also cautious about security. If the phone and watch only work in close proximity, no one could use the phone without wearing the watch. This could be an extra security feature that is more reliable than a password. The watch could also alert you if you leave the range of your phone, making it much harder to lose or misplace.

Even though most people would be annoyed by this redundant design, I think it might appeal to a select group of security minded people.

The redundancy might also allow people to reflect on when and why they are using their phone, which is an experiance they might not get if the watch and phone were fast and easy to unlock. I think this is similar to Senger’s 3rd Reflective Design Principle – designers should support users in reflecting on their lives.

Photos that Last Forever

The goal of the artist Justin Brice Guariglia’s is to show others and himself something that will last forever by the material he is using for his design. Also to remind the viewers that the issues humans face in terms of the harm that we cause to our world, specifically the environment.

The inverted goal is to create something that will decompose quickly, yet cause a minimal carbon footprint.

Thus I have created this model, which mimics what the artist was going for in replicating that landscape by taking aerial photos and printing them to a surface. Although in this case I have created something that would decompose over time and yet still be environmentally friendly by recycling it.

 The assumptions that this “opposite” goal makes about people is that, people don’t want things that last forever. Assuming we as humans like to move on to new things and new ideas.

when it comes to art people have many different views and tastes. So it isn’t fair of me if I assume that nobody wants something that doesn’t last forever. It may be the case that somebody does. With that I can imagine. The idea of taking something in and then letting it go, knowing that you’ll never see it again. Maybe that really makes it that much more special .

I believe that this lands on Sengers et al’s “Reflective Design Principles” with the idea of critical design. In the article it says that “A critical designer designs objects not to do with the users values or wants, but to introduce both designers and users to new ways of looking at the world around them… .” I believe that this idea reflects my design and Justin Brice Guariglia’s design.

Inverting Metaphors

The article that I chose for this exercise is called “Get Ready For Skyscrapers Made of Wood. (Yes, Wood). A link to the article can be found here.

The original goal was to create architectural marvels that added a new element of beauty to existing skylines that are mostly dominated by steel and glass buildings. These new skyscrapers would be constructed out of timber, which is very light, and also surprisingly strong. Utilizing this new wooden construction is also helpful to the environment. Wood acts like a “lock-box” and helps to absorb carbon dioxide from the air. This article also talks about transparency in relation to architecture, meaning exposed structural elements, and a large use of transparent materials (i.e. glass).

The inverted goal would then be creating a building that is not only displeasing to the eye, but also harmful to the environment, and almost completely opaque to the outside viewer. In order to achieve this goal, my partner and I created a new building out of construction paper. The entire building is modeled after the “brutalist” movement in architecture, which many consider to be clunky and ugly. After that, we added a large amount of smoke that is billowing out from the top of the cone shape. This cone is actually the building’s power supplier, and it runs on coal. Finally, to address the transparency issue, we decided that most of the building will be made out of one-way glass, so that the employees that work in the building can see out, but no one can see in. Meet the new CIA headquarters:

This exercise helped to reveal some hidden biases that we may have in modern design. For example, most new buildings are now just expected to have a minimal impact on the environment. Also, by doing this activity, I found a type of architecture that only a very small handful of people would like. This made me think about what people consider to be “ugly” buildings, and how that could be different to each person.

Inverting Metaphors: Why Self-Driving Cars Need Superhuman Senses

In the article “Why Self-Driving Cars Need Superhuman Senses”, Jack Stewart describes a new technology that could be implemented into autonomous vehicles: infrared cameras. One of the stated goals of current “smart cars” is to reduce the amount of lives lost on the roadways every year caused by human error. However, even the technologies currently implemented in most current AVs have their shortfalls. Cameras and lidar, for instance, can be obscured in darkness or in fog, while radar can be confused by small metal objects. To compensate for this, Stewart notes an Israeli company marketing infrared cameras to AV manufacturers. The goal of these cameras would be to fill in the gaps left by the other sensors and detect heat signatures from people and animals, alerting the car in advance to take appropriate actions. This would allow the car to “see” an additional spectrum, thus improving its safety features.

The inverted goals of the infrared cameras would be to interfere with the other sensors, create more crashes, and cause more deaths. As indicated in the drawing below, the infrared camera would cause communications between the sensors and the car to scramble – as well as those of other AVs on the road -, essentially making the vehicle blind. It might also direct the car to hit, rather than avoid, people and animals. IMG_1615.JPG

This opposite goal assumes people don’t want to readily adapt autonomous vehicles, and would rather drive themselves than place their lives in the hands of machines. It also assumes that people want to cause as much death and destruction as possible, both to others and themselves. It also indicates that other sensors are “too safe”, and would need an additional one to cause them to malfunction.

This activity made me aware of my own personal assumptions, and how I imprint them on the general population. For example, I do not fancy driving, and so I will gladly accept autonomous vehicles when they emerge. However, many people still enjoy it, and never want to stop. Assumptions like these may lead a designer to create something not for the general population or their target audience, but themselves. As a result, an exercise involving opposite goals is helpful, as it indicates the inherent biases we may have but do not notice.

Why Self-driving Cars Need Superhuman Senses

Why Self-driving Cars Need Superhuman Senses Article

The original goal of the article was to “eliminate crashes all together” through automated vehicles perceiving and understanding the world around them. The inverted goal of the cars would be to design a car that aimed to cause car crashes. I had a few imagined technologies.

The first imagined technology was the automated car could only sense one object at a time so the automated car doesn’t change the route to avoid getting into a car accident.

Another technology was the car doesn’t allow steering and other functions so that the only input is coming in from the sensors. When the sensors detect a heat source instead of avoiding it the car moves toward the heat source. This causes people to hit anything giving off a heat source.

The last technology I thought of was aimed a car designed to get the user to their destination by the fastest route, which includes off-road terrain. The automated car could cause more car accidents in this off-roading system compared to a human because of the difference between human and sensor reaction times. Another technology was the car doesn’t allow steering and other functions so that the only input is coming in from the sensors. When the sensors detect a heat source instead of avoiding it the car moves toward the heat source. This causes people to hit anything giving off a heat source.

The assumption that the opposite goal makes about people is that people want to cause chaos and destruction through not preventing car accidents. These experiences could support the creation of a design that prevents the user from accomplishing these dangerous tasks that cause accidents. The exercise made me realize I had the unconscious biases of assuming everyone has the same desire and resources as the user group I imagined. The inverted technologies gave me the idea of designing a product addressing the opposite goal of the design to see flaws or other options a design team doesn’t traditionally consider. The design supports the reflective design principle of identifying unconscious values and assumptions that are built into the way the problem was conceived. By forcing designers to design an object to address the complete opposite goal of the original design it allows reflection on the fundamental ideas included in the original goal.

Inverting Metaphors

My article for this exercise was called “Say Goodbye to the Blob, Google’s new Emoji has Arrived”, link follows: Google Emoji Redesign

The original goal for their redesign was to design an emoji catalog that would convey the same meaning and emotion on other mobile OS’s, such as iOS. Therefore, the inverted goal would be to design an emoji catalog that only appears on Android phones, and not on any other device. For example, the “tears of joy” emoji that we all know and love would simply be displayed as *tears of joy*.

My implementation of this design was a guidebook, sold by Google at an astonishingly high price point, that would picture every emoji and a description of how each emoji should be used. Below are several pictures of my prototype.Emoji3Emoji2Emoji1

This inverted goal assumes that people have absolutely no desire to share their emoji’s with non-android users, establishing an elitist Android Army. Also, since this guidebook is so expensive, money is a bias in play here. This exercise helped me see those unconscious biases present in this design. It also helped me realize that our emoji system in place is fairly robust and put together, and I see little to no place for this incompatibility in my day-to-day life.

Inverting Metaphors

To Prepare for Class on 9/13
Browse Wired magazine online (particularly in the design category) for an article about a new technology or innovation. Read the article and take note of the goal or aims of the project. For instance, in this article about human-AI relations, one of the stated goals is “…they hope to do is create a toolkit of techniques and ideas about how to design AI systems less prone to disappointing or surprising us humans.” In this article about a new smart sensor for the home, the goal is of smart homes is “building an environment that knows more about itself than you do.” Print out the article and highlight goal of the technology described on the first page. Write a short paragraph about the assumptions this goal makes about people and what values it places as central to the design. Bring it to class on 9/13.

In Class on 9/13
We’ll work as a group to invert the metaphors, values, and goals of the project. For instance, inverting the goals of the examples in the first section would result in: “…they hope to do is create a toolkit of techniques and ideas about how to design AI systems more prone to disappointing or surprising us humans.” or “building an environment that knows less about the environment than you do.” Then we’ll sketch ideas for what a technology would look like if it were built with those inverted values in mind and share them with the group.

Blog Post, Due Thursday 9/14
After the exercise, create a blog post under the category “Inverting Metaphors” and do the following:

  1. Link to the article
  2. State the original goal and the inverted goal.
  3. Describe your imagined technology (including pictures preferably).
  4. Write a paragraph about what assumptions this “opposite” goal makes about people and what values it places as central to the design. What experiences could you imagine this technology supporting? Did this exercise make you aware of any unconscious biases in design? Did if give you new ideas for what technology could do in daily life? Which of Sengers et al’s “Reflective Design Principles” does your technology support (if any)?
