I have a point shapefile with thousand of points. It has an ID code field that supposed to be unique. Every now and then the data entry clerk wrongly type the id creating duplicates.Right now I'm manually scrolling the field to find the duplicate.Is there a sane way to do this using the Search Query Builder? Thanks for any help.

If you need to enforce uniqueness I would recommend using a database e.g. Postgres/PostGIS, Spatailite – Nathan W Jun 20 '12 at 10:26

If the IDs are consecutive, I would add a new temporary column with unique values like _USER_.shp suggested and then use the query builder to search for ID!= uniqueID.
That would return the duplicates directly. After fixing the original IDs, remove the extra column or repeat the whole process as needed — it is not clear what kind of pattern your IDs must match. If they just need to be unique, note the last value first and you can then edit the bad IDs in one iteration, just bumping the number as you go.

Use Group Stats plugin and set the ID as a field classification. You can see how many times each value has been entered in 'count' column.

A quick (although inelegant) way to do this is to go into Layer properties, select Style - Categorized using the column that you're interested in. Apply this, then right click on the layer in the layers window and check the Show Feature Count checkbox. Then expand the layer in the layers window and you can immediately see how many times each value has been entered.

Also you can use the split by attribute and end up with a seperate table for each value.
I like Rayo's suggestion though. except statist doesn't quite work like I thought it did.
It does give a count of unique values but doesn't help with what those values are.
Another software might add a count field and allow you to export it to csv or other spreadsheet format.
My suggestion for the split layer by attribute is in the vector management tools
management too
split your data on any 1 field an dyou will have your counts.
way more inelegant than ship.ship's solution

Here is my script for removing features with same ID's. It takes first feature with more than one index attribute and writes it to new feature class.

Wire Color Conundrum
Honda offers a tip regarding wiring color identification.
Have you ever been under the dash with your droplight while troubleshooting a circuit, and the service information says the wire is light green, but you swear it looks light blue? The wire may look that way for several reasons:
- The wire color has faded due to age or heat.
- The wire color looks slightly different because of the light you're using.
- There's a minor color variation between some wire colors in some late-model vehicles. In 2005, many new vehicles started using wiring made with non-halogen insulation, which is better for the environment than regular PVC insulation when it's recycled or disposed of. Currently, the new wiring comes in 13 different solid colors (blue, light blue, green, light green, orange, red, pink, white, black, purple, brown, gray and yellow), and the manufacturing process doesn't allow for a tracer or stripe.
To make sure the wire you're checking is the correct one, check the wire colors in adjacent cavities. If those wires match the service information, and the original wire is a similar color to what is listed in the service information, you can rest assured that the wire color is correct.
In other words, welcome to the nightmare.

After updating a database field the values are not reflected in the application layer
Issue: After updating a database field directly on the primary data source the values are not reflected on the IMSI and/or FHIR interfaces.
Applies To:
 - OpenIZ Immunization Management Service (IMS)
Symptoms:
 - When updating a database field using SQL the value is changed in the database but not reflected in applications.
 - When querying a FHIR based resource the updated values do not present themselves.
Cause: The OpenIZ IMS uses an in-memory cache to speed up the retrieval of data from the primary data source. The two options for this are a built-in memory cache or REDIS. When you update the value directly on the database, it does not invalidate the cache data.
Solution:
When using the built-in memory cache:
 1. Open a command prompt as Administrator
 2. Restart the OpenIZ host process using the command:
 - net stop openiz
 - net start openiz
 3. Note: Your instance of OpenIZ IMS will be unavailable during this time
When using the REDIS cache service
 1. Open a command prompt as Administrator on your REDIS host server
 2. Restart the REDIS process using the command
 - net stop redis
 - net start redis
 3. Note: Your instance of OpenIZ IMS will continue to be available during this time.

Photoacoustic temperature measurement is a new type of thermometric technology with noninvasive, real-time, high precision and space resolution. For improving the measurement accuracy and reliability, the method of using a multiwavelength photoacoustic signal to monitor the temperature named as multiwavelength photoacoustic temperature measurement was proposed in this paper. Based on the basic photoacoustic effect theory, the theoretical feasibility of this method was analyzed. And the experimental results from the phantom and ex-vivo tissue samples indicate that the multiwavelength photoacoustic temperature measurement can effectively reduce the error to smaller than 0.1 °C, and increase the accuracy of temperature measurement by more than two times. Our study demonstrated that the multiwavelength photoacoustic temperature measurement can potentially be a valuable method for temperature measurement during photothermal therapy or other clinic applications.

Final goods Definition
In economics Final goods are goods that are ultimately consumed rather than used in the production of another good. For example, a car sold to a consumer is a final good; the components such as tires sold to the car manufacturer are not; they are intermediate goods used to make the final good.
When used in measures of national income and output the term Final goods only includes new goods. For instance, the GDP excludes items counted in an earlier year to prevent double counting of production based on resales of the same item second and third hand.
Consumer goods are exactly the same as final goods, but with the subtle difference that they are specifically intended for the mass market. For instance, consumer goods do not include investment assets, like precious antiques, even though these items are final goods.

My Singing Monsters is one of the most intriguing mobile games we've ever played. This isn't because the game's mechanics are particularly novel or inventive, but rather because of its unique presentation, which revolves around hatching and raising a vast range of monsters that, when placed on your islands, begin playing tunes and generating lovely music.
Explicitly put, My Singing Monsters is a base-building game in which you must gradually increase your assets by building structures and hatching and raising monsters. When these monsters are placed, they create coins as resources. Meanwhile, you may construct a variety of facilities, such as bakeries, where you can spend money to make goodies that will level up your monsters and improve their coin generation when given to them.
You'll also gain XP as you level up monsters, construct structures, and complete missions, which will help your account level up, giving you access to additional monsters and facilities. So, in this article, we will tell you a few tips and tricks to help you perform better in the game. Let's get started then.
1. Obtaining more coins
Coins are the primary form of currency in My Singing Monsters, and their usage is simple. This currency may be used to buy and place buildings, as well as to purchase monster eggs. They can also be used to make sweets at Bakeries, which can then be fed to your monsters to raise their levels and increase the number of currency they produce over time.
And while we're on the subject, the most common ways to earn money in this game are by passively collecting coins from your singing monsters, selling unwanted monsters once they've hatched, or performing game tasks.
2. Keep the Monsters Happy
Try to make monsters happy. Your currency supply increases when your monsters are happy! But be smart about what you buy for a monster's happiness. Consider the cost and if it's best to buy it now, wait for a bargain, or not at all. Use the Storage structure to your advantage. Monsters will still be happy with the decorations in the storage facility.
3. How to Upgrade Monsters?
You may feed treats to your present monsters to provide them XP, which will aid them to level up. It boost the amount of currency they create over time. The maximum number of coins they can carry at any particular time also increases by levelling up.
Treats in My Singing Monsters are made by spending coins at the Bakeries. You'll obtain more treats at the end of the production time if you spend more coins. However, the higher the monster's level, the more treats it will require to advance to the next level.
- When it comes to Ethereal Island, only transport one of each Ethereal at a time because you may breed more readily there.
- Concentrate on progressively boosting monster levels rather than investing all of your food resources on one monster. Your progress will be slowed as a result.
- Don't level up the Dipsters past level 10, as they hardly make any coins.
- Get a tonne of single elementals on Ethereal Island and Magical Sanctum. They make a lot more shards, s ingle elementals that are extremely rare and even better – epic.
- Make use of the social features! You can acquire Starshop items and diamonds on Tribal Island!
- Remember to use wishing torches; they improve your odds of breeding uncommon monsters and can be lit for free by friends.

Half a loaf is better than no bread
What's the meaning of the phrase 'Half a loaf is better than no bread'?
Something, even if it isn't what you ideally would prefer, is better than nothing.
What's the origin of the phrase 'Half a loaf is better than no bread'?
This proverbial saying is first found in the same place as many other proverbial sayings - John Heywood's 1546 glossary A dialogue conteinyng the nomber in effect of all the prouerbes in the englishe tongue:
Throwe no gyft agayne at the giuers head,
For better is halfe a lofe then no bread.
Many proverbs are a form of condensed popular wisdom and 'half a loaf is better than no bread' seems like plain common sense - few would argue with it. Nevertheless, in psychology experiments to determine whether fairness was an innate concept in humans or whether it was learned, pairs of UK and US children have been set the following test:
One child is offered four sweets (or candy if you prefer) and the other is offered one. The child with the opportunity to take four sweets is given this choice:
A. Either, you get four sweets and the other child gets one.
B. Or, you both get nothing.
Surprisingly to many, children routinely choose option B and reject the sweets, preferring to maintain a sense of fairness. In purely material terms this makes little sense as, by maintaining fairness, the choosing child robs the partner of one sweet and him/herself of four.
Heywood might have suggested 'throw no gift at the giver's head' but children don't appear to agree.

A method is proposed to control seismic response of a high-rise building considering function maintenance of an elevator. When a cost function for optimal control is formulated to reduce response of rope, response of a building deteriorates especially in high frequency range. In order to overcome this drawback, the proposed method employs frequency shaping linear quadratic Gaussian control and variable gain feedback. Time history analysis is carried out using simulated ground motion and it is verified that the proposedmethod can reduce the response of both a building and rope effectively.

Cut the original tree to take the bark, cut the tree twice a year, then cut the tree again for the next 3 years. Each harvest can harvest 1.2-1.5 tons of fresh bark per hectare. Later on, every year of harvesting this way, the average yield can reach 1 – 1.2 tons of fresh pods / ha. 16-20 year old stumps can reach 20-25cm in diameter, the number of shoots into stems is about 8-14 stems, which is the beginning of the period of strongest growth. Cinnamon harvested to 70-80 years, until poor growth, then remove the old old roots, grow new cinnamon forest.

Allow cinnamon to evaporate while drying. Just incubation like that during drying, after 21 days, unloaded cinnamon from the oven. Dry at 70-75 degrees Celsius.
Storing essential oils:
Parts of cinnamon tree can store essential oils, but cinnamon bark is a higher value product, so rarely used for storage but mainly used as medicine. Cinnamon leaves picked, dried, bundled into bundles of about 10kg, stored in storage, 1 month after taking away essential oils.
Do not pick the leaves in the spring and before peeling them.

Soft Set Theoretic Approach for Dimensionality Reduction
A reduct is a subset of attributes that are jointly sufficient and individually necessary for preserving a particular property of a given information system. The existing reduct approaches under soft set theory are still based on Boolean-valued information system. However, in the real applications, the data usually contain non-Boolean values. In this paper, an alternative approach for attribute reduction in multi-valued information system under soft set theory is presented. Based on the notion of multi-soft sets and AND operation, attribute reduction can be defined. It is shown that the reducts obtained are equivalent with Pawlak's rough reduction.


What Does Duck and Weave Mean?
Duck and Weave Meaning
Definition: To move from side to side, bobbing up and down.
People often move this way when trying to navigate through a large crowd. This expression describes a type of motion.
Origin of Duck and Weave
The verb duck predates the animal duck, although the two are related. One meaning of duck means to dive. The animal is named for the diving motion it makes through the water, and how it bobs its head in and out of the water.
Another meaning of duck is avoid a blow by moving down quickly. This meaning of duck appears in the literal meaning of the expression duck and weave, which describes a motion common in boxing.
In the sport of boxing, the athletes will move their head up and down, and move their bodies from side to side, trying to avoid the other boxer's punches.
Nowadays, people still use this expression for boxing, but also for anything with a similar motion.
Examples of Duck and Weave
duck and weave boxing duck and weave Here is an example of a teacher using the expression in a math class.
Teacher: Okay, class is finished. Don't forget to turn in your homework. Hey, you, stop ducking and weaving through your classmates. I see you trying to escape through the crowd without giving me your homework.
Student: I'm sorry, but I forgot to do it. I thought you might not notice if I escaped the classroom before you saw me leave.
Teacher: Well, next time don't move in such an obvious way. Uh, I mean, next time just finish your homework.
what does ducked mean In this example, two friends are coming back home from a party.
Monica: I think I'm done going to parties that are at nightclubs.
Janice: How come? Didn't you have fun?
Monica: Yes, I enjoyed the music and seeing my friends, but the dance floor was too crowded. There was no room to move freely to dance. I felt like I was just ducking and weaving through the crowd all night.
More Examples
This excerpt is from an article that questions the safety of dog parks. It describes the movement of a family pet.
 - Kyle Hurt and his 6-year-old son, Mason, lounged on a bench watching their energetic boxer, Jersey, duck and weave around a feisty Australian shepherd in the Hound Hill dog park near Quebec and Lincoln streets. –Denver Post
The second excerpt shows a food critic describing his walk through a restaurant.
 - My guest and I duck and weave through the crowd as we follow the hostess to our table. The dining room is just as loud. It's an echo chamber of shouted conversation and the uniquely screechy mating calls of the tequila-infused. –OC Register
The phrase duck and weave comes from the sport of boxing and describes the motion the boxer makes to avoid blows.
People now use it to describe the same type of motion when used in other activities, such as walking through a crowd.

Experimental Investigation on Atomization Characteristics of Ultrasonic Atomizer 900803
An exeperimental study on the atomization characteristics of an ultrasonic Atomizer utilizing pulse laser holographic system is presented in this paper.
The spatial distribution of the ultrasonic frequency and the pressure amplitude behind the atomizer were measured. It was shown by experiment that the sonic wave from the outlet of the atomizer travels as a spherical wave.
The effects of the air pressure within the ultrasonic atomizer on the ultrasonic frequency and the pressure amplitude were studied.
The effects of air pressure and fuel flow rate on the spatial distribution of the droplets and the SMD mean diameters were obtained.
On the basis of experimental results, the atomization mechanism of the ultrasonic atomizer is discussed.


Definition:Ordered Tuple/Definition 2
From ProofWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Definition
Let $n \in \N$ be a natural number.
Let $\N_n$ denote the first $n$ non-zero natural numbers:
$\N_n := \set {1, 2, \ldots, n}$
Let $\family {S_i}_{i \mathop \in \N_n}$ be a family of sets indexed by $\N_n$.
Let $\ds \prod_{i \mathop \in \N_n} S_i$ be the Cartesian product of $\family {S_i}_{i \mathop \in \N_n}$.
An ordered tuple (of length $n$) of $\family {S_i}$ is an element of $\ds \prod_{i \mathop \in \N_n} S_i$.
Term of Ordered Tuple
Let $\sequence {a_k}_{k \mathop \in \N^*_n}$ be an ordered tuple.
The ordered pair $\tuple {k, a_k}$ is called the $k$th term of the ordered tuple for each $k \in \N^*_n$.
Also known as
Some sources refer to an ordered tuple as a tuple.
The term ordered $n$-tuple or just $n$-tuple can sometimes be seen, particularly for specific instances of $n$.
Instead of writing $2$-tuple, $3$-tuple and $4$-tuple, the terms couple, triple and quadruple are usually used.
However, beware of couple, as this has a completely different meaning in the context of mechanics.
In the context of abstract algebra, the concept is encountered as (associative) word.
It is noted that an ordered tuple is in fact a one-dimensional array.
Notation
Notation for an ordered tuple varies throughout the literature.
There are also specialised instances of an ordered tuple where the convention is to use angle brackets.
However, it is common for an ordered tuple to be denoted:
$\tuple {a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n}$
extending the notation for an ordered pair.
For example: $\tuple {6, 3, 3}$ is the ordered triple $f$ defined as:
$\map f 1 = 6, \map f 2 = 3, \map f 3 = 3$
The notation:
$\sequence {a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n}$
is recommended when use of round brackets would be ambiguous.
Other notations which may be encountered are:
$\sqbrk {a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n}$
$\set {a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n}$
but both of these are strongly discouraged: the square bracket format because there are rendering problems on this site, the latter because it is too easily confused with set notation.
In order to further streamline notation, it is common to use the more compact $\sequence {a_n}$ for $\sequence {a_k}_{1 \mathop \le k \mathop \le n}$.
Some sources, particularly in such fields as communication theory, where the elements of the domain of the ordered tuple is a specific set of symbols, use the notation $x_1 x_2 \cdots x_n$ for $\tuple {x_1, x_2, \dotsc, x_n}$.

Expo Application Services
API Reference
Permissions
Permissions in standalone and development builds require native build-time configuration before they can be requested using runtime JavaScript code. This is not required when developing projects in the Expo Go app.
Info-icon
If you don't configure or explain the native permissions properly it may result in your app getting rejected or pulled from the stores.
iOS
If your iOS app asks for system permissions from the user, e.g. to use the device's camera, or access photos, Apple requires an explanation for how your app makes use of that data. Most packages will automatically provide a boilerplate reason for a given permission with config plugins. These default messages will most likely need to be tailored to your specific use case in order for your app to be accepted by the App Store.
To set permission messages, use the expo.ios.infoPlist key in your app config (app.json, app.config.js), for example:
{
 "expo": {
 "ios": {
 "infoPlist": {
 "NSCameraUsageDescription": "This app uses the camera to scan barcodes on event tickets."
 }
 }
 }
}
Many of these properties are also directly configurable using the config plugin properties associated with the library that adds them. For example, with expo-media-library you can configure photo permission messages like this:
{
 "expo": {
 "plugins": [
 [
 "expo-media-library",
 {
 "photosPermission": "Allow $(PRODUCT_NAME) to access your photos.",
 "savePhotosPermission": "Allow $(PRODUCT_NAME) to save photos."
 }
 ]
 ]
 }
}
 - Changes to the Info.plist cannot be updated over-the-air, they will only be deployed when you submit a new native binary, eg: with eas build.
 - Apple's official permission message recommendations.
 - All available Info.plist properties.
Triangle-down-icon
Are you using this library in a bare React Native app?
Add and modify the permission message values in Info.plist file directly. We recommend doing this directly in Xcode for autocompletion.
Android
Permissions are configured with the expo.android.permissions and expo.android.blockedPermissions keys in your app config (app.json, app.config.js).
Most permissions are added automatically by libraries that you use in your app either with config plugins or with a package-level AndroidManifest.xml, so you won't often need to use android.permissions to add additional permissions.
The only way to remove permissions that are added by package-level AndroidManifest.xml files is to block them with the expo.android.blockedPermissions property. To do this, specify the full permission name; for example, if you want to remove the audio recording permissions added by expo-av:
{
 "expo": {
 "android": {
 "blockedPermissions": ["android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"]
 }
 }
}
Triangle-down-icon
Are you using this library in a bare React Native app?
Modify AndroidManifest.xml to exclude specific permissions: add the tools:node="remove" attribute to a <use-permission> tag to ensure it is removed, even if it's included in a library AndroidManifest.xml.
<manifest xmlns:tools="_URL_
 <uses-permission tools:node="remove" android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
</manifest>
Info-icon
You have to define the xmlns:tools attribute on <manifest> before you can use the tools:node attribute on permissions.
Triangle-down-icon
Are you using the classic build system? (expo build:[android|ios])
By default, apps built with the Classic Build system will include all permissions required by any Expo SDK package (with exceptions only for background permissions). This is so that your standalone app will match its behavior in the Expo Go app and simply "work out of the box" no matter what permissions you ask for, with minimal configuration required by the developer.
There are some drawbacks to this. For example, let's say your To-do list app requests CAMERA permission upon installation. Your users may be wary of installing your app since nothing in the app seems to use the camera, so why would it need that permission?
To solve this, add the android.permissions key in your app.json file and specify which permissions your app will use. Refer to this list of all Android permissions and configuration for more information.
To use only the minimum necessary permissions that React Native requires to run, set "permissions" : []. To use those in addition to CAMERA permission, for example, you'd set "permissions" : ["CAMERA"].
Web
On the web, permissions like the Camera and Location can only be requested from a secure context, e.g. using https:// or http://localhost. This limitation is similar to Android's manifest permissions and iOS's infoPlist usage messages and enforced to increase privacy.
Resetting permissions
Often you want to be able to test what happens when a user rejects permissions, to ensure your app reacts gracefully. An operating-system level restriction on both iOS and Android prohibits an app from asking for the same permission more than once (you can imagine how this could be annoying for the user to be repeatedly prompted for permissions after rejecting them). To test different flows involving permissions in development, you may need to uninstall and reinstall the native app.
When testing in Expo Go, you can delete the app and reinstall it by running npx expo start and pressing i or a in the Expo CLI Terminal UI.

Site Identification - Entrance Sign
Unlike the other standard road signs, this sign is not located within the public road right of way. The Site Identification sign is used at the entrance to a historic site, segment, or interpretive facility, so that the public knows when they have arrived at a place on the national historic trail. These signs will be located at the entrance to the property and because each property is unique, these signs are site specific. This sign can be added to an existing sign (see example above) or customized with images or logos. Each sign will require working directly with the landowner and NTIR office to determine the requirements for this sign.

A report released by Barclays Corporate Banking indicates that 39% of global consumers would be more likely to purchase products produced in the UK.
The report, dubbed Brand Britain: Export Opportunities for UK Businesses, notes that Asia and the Middle East are the most likely, conveying more interest in Brand Britain, and the association with quality.
Out of the 8,060 people surveyed, 67% Indian people, 62% people from the UAE, and 61% of Chinese people were more inclined.
The Barclays research also suggested that the dedication to British manufactured products was strongest with young people, with almost half (48%) said they would be more likely to purchase.
The majority of young people in China, between the ages of 25-34, were more interested in British made commodities, at 73%.
People with the over 55 age group, however, were less likely to be encouraged by British production, at only 24%.
The survey, which questioned people from eight markets – France, Germany, Republic of Ireland, India, China, UAE, the US, and South Africa – noted that food, fashion, and cars were the most popular products from the UK.
22% of consumers would be more willing to purchase food knowing it was from Britain.
Cars received 10% interest, with 9% of the group encouraged by British exported clothing, matching with 9% of people more likely to purchase British alcohol.

Segment-indicating muscle
German: Kennmuskel
1 Definition
The segment-indicating muscle refers in subjects of anatomy and neurology to a muscle which is innvervated by only one segment of the spinal cord. A deficiency of this muscle permits a distinct conclusion of the localization of the neural lesion. The majority of muscles is supplied by nerve fibres originated from several segments of the spinal cord. It is important to distinguish the concept of the segment-indicating muscle from the concept of the leading muscle.
2 Example
The musculus brachioradialis (radioperiosteal reflex) is a segment-indicating muscle of the sement C6.

Here's How The Average Korean Will Look In 2100 According To Scientists
Through artificial smart image technology, pictures of average Korean faces from the past, present, and the future were produced to show how Koreans looked like. These images were created by historians and facial reconstruction experts based on skulls of ancient Koreans.
1. Ancient Koreans of 12,000 years agoThe generated faces have the distinct traits of North Eastern Asians.
2. The Silla Dynasty (57 BC – 935 AD)The average faces shifted significantly as blood was mixed with people who migrated south from Northern Siberia.
A round oval shaped face and small lips are the most significant traits.
3. Goryeo Period 918 ~ 2017Migration of foreign people became less common since the beginning of Goryeo Dynasty.
Through Korea's unification in the Chosun period, Korean faces became close to what the average face is in present-day South Korea.
4. 2050As multinational families with neighboring Asian countries become more prevalent, South East Asian features may start to become more accentuated by 2050.
5. 2100By 2100, it is expected one out of every 5 households will be a multinational family.
The average Korean face is expected to most likely reflect traits from multiple Asian nations.

How to Create Parent-Child Relations in Vapor 3
865 Views
This tutorial will cover how to create parent-child relations in Vapor 3.
Parent-Child relations are useful for when one of your model "owns" multiple objects in another model. The classic example for this is a forum website: A User object has many posts, but each post belongs to only 1 user.
Models
This tutorial will have 2 models: a Post class and a User class. Each post will belong to a user, and each user will have many posts. Our Post and User class look like this:
extension User: Content, Migration { }
 extension Post: Content, Migration { }
 final class User: SQLiteModel {
 var id: Int?
 var username: String

 init(username: String) {
 self.username = username
 }
 }
 final class Post: SQLiteModel {
 var id: Int?
 var title: String
 var userID: User.ID

 init(title: String, userID: User.ID) {
 self.title = title
 self.userID = userID
 }
 }
This is a very is a very simple setup: the User class has a username property, and the Post class has a title and userID property. This userID property will be needed to attach a user to each post that is created in the database.
Fluent offers several convenience methods for both the parent and the child that can help us in retrieving them from the database, so that we don't have to manually query. In our case, they would be written:
// 1
 extension User {
 var posts: Children {
 return children(\.userID)
 }
 }
 // 2
 extension Post {
 var owner: Parent {
 return parent(\.userID)
 }
 }
At 1, the posts variable represents the children, and will list all objects in the Post class that have been created by a given User.
At 2, the owner variable represents the parent: it will give the parent User object for any given Post object
Accessing these properties in your controller
Below are several example routes that show us how we can access these values in our controller:
// This method lists all posts for any defined userId
 func listPostsForGivenUser(_ request: Request) throws -> Future<[Post]> {
 let userId:Int = 1
 return try User.find(userId, on: request).flatMap(to: [Post].self) { user in // 1
 guard let unwrappedUser = user else { throw Abort.init(HTTPStatus.notFound) } // 2
 return try unwrappedUser.posts.query(on: request).all() // 3
 }
 }

 // This method returns the User who created any valid Post
 func listUserForGivenPost(_ request: Request) throws -> Future {
 let postId: Int = 2
 return try Post.find(postId, on: request).flatMap(to: User.self, { post -> Future in // 4
 guard let unwrappedPost = post else { throw Abort.init(HTTPStatus.notFound) }
 return try unwrappedPost.owner.get(on: request) // 5
 })
 }
At 1, we take the userId given to us, and find the corresponding user in the database. We then call .flatMap, and we flatMap to [Post].self, because that is what we declared in the route signature.
At 2, we unwrap the optional User object
For 3, we use the variable we defined previously, 'posts', and query the database for those posts., and then return them
For 4 and 5, the formula is the same, except at 5, we use the owner helper we created above to retrieve the owner of the post, and then return that

Parameter Sweep
Parameter Sweep is an advanced technique in electronic design used to evaluate and optimize circuit performance at varying values of component parameters.
30. June 2023
3 minutes reading
Definition
Parameter Sweep is an advanced technique in electronic design used to evaluate and analyze the circuit's response at varying values of one or more component parameters. By performing this type of sweep, one can systematically change the parameter settings and observe the effect on circuit performance to identify optimal operating conditions and achieve desired results.
Purpose of running a Parameter Sweep
Parameter Sweep plays a crucial role in electronic design and analysis. By running it, the following objectives can be achieved:
 1. Circuit design optimization
 Parameter Sweep enables the evaluation of circuit performance at different settings of component parameters. This allows for the identification of optimal values and adjustments to the design to achieve desired functionality, stability, and efficiency.
 2. Troubleshooting and diagnostics
 Parameter Sweep helps identify potential issues and errors in a circuit. By varying the component parameters, one can observe how the circuit response changes and identify the causes of errors or undesired behavior.
 3. Design process optimization
 Performing a Parameter Sweep can expedite the design process by identifying optimal parameter settings early in the development phase. This minimizes the need for iterative loops and saves time and resources.
Parameter Sweep
Implementation
To perform a Parameter Sweep, you select one or more component parameters to be evaluated and define a set of values for these parameters to vary between. Subsequently, simulations or physical measurements are performed on the circuit for each combination of parameter values to obtain a comprehensive set of results that can be analyzed and compared.
 1. Design your circuit: Begin by building your electronic circuit using a schematic design tool. Add the necessary components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, active components, etc. Also, define the parameters you wish to vary in the parameter sweep.
 2. Identify parameters: Choose the circuit parameters you want to vary, such as resistor values, capacitor capacitances, voltage levels, frequencies, etc. These parameters can be specific values you want to test or a range of values within an interval.
 3. Configure the parameter sweep: Set up the sweep in your simulation tool. Specify the values or interval you want to vary the parameters within and define the number of steps or interval size between the values.
 4. Define results: Identify the output parameters you want to observe as a response to the parameter sweep. This may include voltages, currents, power, or other circuit characteristics relevant to your analysis.
 5. Perform the simulation: Initiate the sweep simulation. The simulator will now perform multiple simulations with different values of the selected parameters and record the results for each combination.
 6. Analyze results: After the simulation is completed, you can analyze the results. This typically involves studying graphs showing how the output parameters vary with the changed parameter values. You can identify patterns, draw conclusions, and gain a deeper understanding of how the circuit responds to different parameter values.
A parameter sweep enables you to explore various aspects of your circuit, optimize its performance, and understand how different parameters affect its behavior.
Advantages
Parameter Sweep brings several benefits to electronic design and analysis:
 - Optimal performance
 By performing a Parameter Sweep, one can identify the optimal settings of component parameters that result in maximum performance for a given circuit. This enables design optimization and ensures efficient circuit operation under different operating conditions.
 - Error identification
 By varying the component parameters in a Parameter Sweep, changes in circuit response can be observed, allowing for the identification of potential errors or problematic areas. This enables error correction and improves the circuit's reliability and quality.
 - Time savings
 Parameter Sweep can help reduce time consumption in the design process by identifying optimal parameter values early in the development phase. By reducing the need for experimental iterations and trial-and-error methods, the sweep accelerates the design process and increases productivity.
 - Optimized design process
 Performing a Parameter Sweep can lead to a deeper understanding of circuit behavior under varying parameter values. This can result in more sophisticated and well-balanced design solutions that meet specific requirements and preferences.
Parameter Sweep is a powerful technique in electronic design that enables optimization of circuit performance, error identification, and time savings in the design process. By systematically varying the component parameters, optimal settings can be achieved, ensuring maximum performance and reliability for electronic circuits. It is an invaluable tool for electronic engineers seeking to deliver quality designs in less time.

Nashville, TN – The Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) has completed a year-long Statewide Aviation Economic Impact Study, finding Tennessee's public-use airports contribute $40 billion to the state's economy and support 220,936 jobs in Tennessee.
"Tennessee's 78 public-use airports are critical components of the state's transportation network, linking and providing access to regional, national, and global transportation systems," said TDOT Commissioner Clay Bright.
This Economic Impact Study represents the 2019 annual economic impact of the aviation system on the state's economy. Therefore, the study is a good representation of the annual economic impact of the aviation system during a non-pandemic world.
The study analyzed the economic impacts of on-airport activities, off-airport activities, multiplier impacts, and freight/cargo. Examples of on-airport activities include economic impacts from business tenants, airport construction spending, and airport employment. Off-airport impacts include visitor spending. Visitor spending generated 69,965 jobs and $9 billion in business revenue to the state in 2019. Analysis found that freight/cargo impacts generated 82,357 jobs and $19 billion in business revenue.
"A safe, secure, efficient, and resilient aviation system is essential to our state's physical, economic, and social health," said Michelle Frazier, Director of TDOT's Aeronautics Division. "This report recognizes aviation as a driver of the economy, including economic recovery."
The Aviation Economic Impact Study details the $40 billion economic impact of aviation in Tennessee. Airports serve as a catalyst for people to conduct business, serve clients, and ship cargo. Having a well-maintained and diverse aviation system supports a robust economy.

Are Skydiving and Parajumping the Same Thing
Are Skydiving and Parajumping the Same Thing?
Are skydiving and parajumping the same thing? That's a pretty common question and since the terms are often used interchangeably it just adds to the confusion. Both parajumping and skydiving use the exact same but there are some differences between the two. Skydiving is really for more experienced jumpers but that doesn't answer the question as to the difference between the two. Let's explore parajumping and skydiving and you can decide which you would rather try.
Parajumping is something that almost anybody in reasonably good health can do. You and a friend can both try parajumping for the first time together and schools will even offer up discounts for first timers or for charity events. There will still be some instruction that you will have to go through first where you are taught about your equipment and safety. On the day of the jump you will still do a run through to make sure that all of your equipment is in working order.
For the first jump you will probably do Static Line Parajumping, that means that your parachute will be pulled automatically when you jump out of the plane. The parachute is attached to the inside of the plane so that when you exit it is pulled. The military also uses this type of parajumping, when you see soldiers in a row all leaving a plane they are static line jumping. Here is a look at static line jumping.
Now let's look at skydiving. While the terms have been used interchangeably skydiving is slightly different. You do use the exact same gear but when you exit the plane the parachute is manually pulled by you. During the time you exit the plane until you pull the rip cord you are in free fall. You are quite literally falling through the air and you can reach speeds of more than 100mph as you descend. For many jumpers this is the thrill they are chasing and what they love most about the sport. Free falling is what separates parajumping from skydiving and it requires more training and experience than just parajumping alone.
If you have never jumped before and still want the thrill of a free fall then you can try skydiving while in tandem with an instructor or experienced jumper. You will still have the thrills you want without having to worry about remembering to pull the cord. No matter your preference the experience is still thrilling.
Essential Parajumping Gear
Essential Parajumping Gear
Parajumping or skydiving isn't just getting on a plane, jumping off and letting gravity do the rest of the work, it is about surviving and enjoying the jump. In order to do that you need the right training and equipment. Thrill seekers and adrenaline junkies have been jumping from planes for decades but for the most part they all take whatever precautions they can to make sure it is done safely. Here are some of the essential parajumping gear that you are going to need.
 1. The Parachute
Hands down, the parachute is most essential piece of equipment that you are going to need. The parachute is what slows you down and allows you to reach the ground at a reasonable speed that you can survive. Most jumpers also have a backup parachute in case something happens. Unless you are really passionate about jumping and do it several times per month you will probably rent one from the drop zone. It is cheaper and easier than maintaining your own.
 1. Jumpsuits
Jumping and traveling at those speeds exposes you to the elements, particularly strong winds and cold, you can't jump wearing just anything. A good jumpsuit is wind resistant, will help keep you warm and protect your body. Landing can also be rough and the jumpsuit will help protect you from getting scratched or cut when you land.
 1. Altimeter
If you want to free fall you will still need to pull your parachute once you reach a certain altitude in order to make sure you can safely land. If you wait too long the parachute won't slow you down enough and if you open too early you can rip your chute. The altimeter tells you the perfect time to pull the cord and open your parachute. If you ever plan on jumping at night then the altimeter is crucial to your survival.
 1. Pads and Helmets
It should go without saying that you need a helmet and other padding to save you from injury on landing. Helmets, elbow and knee pads are all essential but you might consider adding some type of spinal protection to your gear. If you land on your back then you definitely want protection.
Parajumping is an adrenaline rush that very few things compare to, it is defying the elements and the laws of physics and there is no feeling quite like it. But even defying the elements requires the right safety gear so you can live to jump another day.

How-To Geek
Taste with Their Legs
Hide Eggs in Wasp Nests
Produce Freeze-Proof Eggs
Lay Poisonous Eggs
Answer: Taste with Their Legs
Some species of butterflies have a rather curious talent that we should all be glad humans do not possess: they can taste via their legs. These butterflies have special hairs on their legs called gustatory sensilla that are the same specialized hairs found on their mouths and antenna that function as taste receptors.
How does tasting via their legs help the butterflies? By tasting the leaves they alight on, they can immediately determine if the plant is a suitable host for their eggs. In a world where predators are many and dallying on a plant is dangerous, the ability to instantly determine if the plant they've landed on is hostile or an ideal spot to leave their young offers a huge advantage.

Work Status by Age of College Students in Utah
September 19, 2019
In the Utah Data Research Center's latest report on Outcomes for Working College Students in Utah, it analyzed students ages 17 to 54 and separated them into two subgroups: ages 17-29 (younger) and ages 30-54 (older). This was to reflect the different decisions these groups make since younger students tend to attend college for the first time, while older students tend to be returning students and already established in the workforce.
The study reported that 50% of the older student group worked while 44% of the younger student group worked in 2016. Among both age groups, students who worked tended to have lower average GPAs, longer time to graduation, lower rates of retention, and higher rates of part-time attendance compared to those who did not work. Older students tended to have higher average GPAs than those from the younger group, but had a longer time to graduation, and lower rate of retention.
When looking at attendance, the portion of students attending college from the older group declined by 4% from 2012 to 2016, falling from 18% to 14%. This decline is likely due to a rise in employment in the years following the 2008 recession prompting older students to choose work over college.
