Hey baby, I hear the blues a-callin',
Tossed salad and scrambled eggs
Mercy (alt: Quite stylish.)
And maybe I seem a bit confused,
Yeah maybe, but I got you pegged!
Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!
But I don't know what to do with those tossed salads and scrambled eggs.

Josh Ritter backstage recordings
Josh Ritter has posted two new impromptu mp3 recordings from backstage on the road. Kind of like what Metallica is doing for their new album, with only 6% of the anger.
I am greatly looking forward to seeing Josh Ritter Wednesday after next (Feb 28) in San Francisco. I've heard that his live show is mesmerizing, but I've never had a chance to experience that. Josh is currently on tour solo acoustic through Canada and the West Coast.
Lil' Ole Wine Drinker Me – Josh Ritter & Stephen Kellogg
Thin Blue Flame – Josh Ritter
(just because this is one of the best songs I heard during the entire year of 2005, and deserves to be revisited at every opportunity possible. To say I adore this song is an understatement.)
I saw him perform last month at the Birchmere in the DC area. The live acoustic show was amazing, and different than when he's with the band. Only a couple of songs suffer without backup, and I caught a lot of lyrics that I hadn't hadn't hit me before. He's also ridiculously cute, and quite the charmer. Have fun!
Sherpa — February 16, 2007 @ 8:25 am
The gig in Chicago is also on the Live Music Archive for download. There's a great Thin Blue Flame with a few new words "we are most of us more cynical than our politicians", and a great new song "The Temptation of Adam", which too has an apocalyptic message.
Chris Jackson — February 16, 2007 @ 10:43 am
He came through Indy last weekend and we went. Pretty cool. He's more grizzled than I'd imagined, and was a class act — stuck around until nearly 1:30 a.m. talking to anyone who wanted to wait in line. We got to him at 1:20…he signed my copy of The Animal Years and I got to tell him some stuff. So that rocked.
kingseyeland — February 16, 2007 @ 10:55 am
i love the new song.
Anyone notice a bit of Ryan Adams in the song?
it really sounds like a cold roses era song.
nathan — February 16, 2007 @ 2:01 pm
I first saw Josh open for Loudon Wainwright III a few years ago at a very small-scale summer music festival held every year in Moscow, ID (his hometown). You're talking a crowd of maybe three hundred people. I enjoyed him, but never thought he would, in a few short years, put out an album as fine as "The Animal Years". One of the year's finest. I think we've only heard the beginning of great things from him.
Eric — February 17, 2007 @ 5:34 am
hey heather, my buddy toured with him so i got to catch a run of shows in cali and really enjoyed them. have you heard his version of "blame it on the tetons"? it's fantastic…
by the way, i love the blog.
rustafarian — February 17, 2007 @ 1:34 pm
thanks so much for turning me on to this great artist
Anonymous — February 19, 2007 @ 6:26 pm
Just saw him in concert (for the second time) over the weekend. LOVE HIM! Question for you: Do you know what cd the song "Since You've Gone" is from? I have Hello Starling so I know it's not on there. If you have the time can you let me know at: ccaplett@yahoo.ca.
Anonymous — February 20, 2007 @ 9:29 am
According to this site, it's a hidden track off his first album, and the song is actually called "Stuck On You."

Are you getting frustrated with your dog training efforts? When you ask your dog to do something, does he bounce around like a crazy creature or just sit there, looking at you with a confused expression on his face? Before you write off your canine best friend's intelligence, you might want to take a humble look in the mirror. You could be making one of these common training mistakes.
Does your dog only work for you if you have treats in your hand? You may have accidentally taught him this. Using treats as a lure to get behaviours can be an effective way to train—you just need to make sure you stop using the treat as a magnet pretty quickly once your dog understands the behaviour! Otherwise, you and your dog can get dependent on treats.
For example, you hold a treat in your hand and use it like a magnet, slowly moving it between your dog's eyes towards the back of his head. Your dog follows the treat and sits, then you give him the treat. Great! If you keep doing this, however, your dog may end up waiting to see if there's a treat in your hand before responding. Instead, after a few successful repetitions, use the exact same hand motion without the treat. This is not to fool your dog. Your dog can smell there isn't a treat in your hand. You are simply teaching him a hand signal. So use an empty hand with the same exact hand motion. Once your dog sits, then give him the treat. You are no longer using the treat as a magnet, but solely as a paycheck.
Dogs learn gradually, in small steps. Many pet parents make the mistake of leaping too far ahead in their goals with the expectation their dogs will follow. For example, you train your dog to come when called while using a six-foot leash. One day, your dog escapes the house and you call him to come. He just runs off, starting a frustrating game of chase.
You've practiced the recall on leash in a controlled training session, but without adding transitional steps, you can't expect your dog to come when called when she's off leash and without boundaries. In this case, you would add intermediate steps to your recall training—use a long line, train in different locations, and add distractions. Whenever you train anything, break the behaviour down into small steps for greater success.
One of the hardest things for dog-training students to do is give a cue just one time. Making multiple requests is fine, of course—unless you would like your dog to respond the first time you ask something of him! If you train your dog using repeated cues/commands, then your dog will learn you say things over and over before you expect a response.
To avoid this, first, teach your dog the behaviour (see mistake #1 for how to properly use a treat lure to accomplish this), then add the cue. Say it once, and be patient—give your dog a minute or so to respond. If he acts confused or simply doesn't perform the desired action, go back and practice the behaviour some more before you try and add the verbal cue.
There is another common way you could be confusing your dog. Dogs are extremely observant of your behaviour and body language. They watch your hands, your feet, your entire body. They pay attention more to your body movements than your verbal instruction. This means you could actually be teaching your dog a different cue than you intended. For example, when you cue your dog to come to you, you lean over. One day, you don't lean over, but you still call him to come. He doesn't come. He's not being stubborn, he just didn't get the same signal you originally taught him.
When you train, watch your body language. Are you training clearly? Minimizing your signals? Using the same signals each time? If not, you could be confusing your dog.
Are you giving your dog mixed signals? Do you let him jump on you sometimes (or even welcome it!) but scold him at other times? Do you try to train him to walk nicely on leash but let him pull you at other times? If so, you're "paying" behaviour you don't like, which means that behaviour will just continue. Your dog won't perform consistently unless you give him consistent direction.
It's very humbling for us to realize we're not always the center of our dog's attention. It borders on insult when your dog blows you off to smell a patch of dirt! But this is normal. Dogs can smell things we can't, hear things we can't. There is a lot of competition out there for your dog's attention.
This doesn't mean you can't get your dog to listen to you despite a distracting environment. You just need to train him. Work in quiet environments first. As your dog learns, gradually increase the distractions so that he is performing despite the temptations around him.
Remember, dogs aren't born understanding our expectations. We have to teach them what we want. The better teacher you are, the better student your dog will be!

Codenotary launches a full-stack monitoring solution for Kubernetes and VMware environments
Codenotary, the company behind the immutable immudb open source database and a software supply chain security service built on top of it, today announced that it is also adding a full-stack Kubernetes and VMware vSphere monitoring service for operations and DevOps teams on top of that. Basically, while the company's previous offering — Codenotary Cloud — focused on securing the software supply chain, it is now extending its service into monitoring production systems with the launch of Immutable Metrics & Logs.
Given that, at its core, Codenotary features a novel database system, it makes sense for the company to expand into other areas where it can use that to bring additional value.
Image Credits: Codenotary
The company argues that its new service allows users to monitor their full stack from the application down to the virtual machine or Kubernetes container and the networking and storage infrastructure. The company argues that its solution will be able to give enterprises a single tool to monitor Kubernetes deployments and the virtualized infrastructure, managed by tools like VMware vSphere, that they often sit on top of, all without having to resort to using multiple tools.
"Our technology delivers the fastest deploy-to-value ratio," said Codenotary co-founder and CTO Dennis Zimmer. "With Codenotary Immutable Metrics & Logs, customers see near instant results from their deployments, whether in the cloud or on-premises. Additionally, we provide the only technology that stores logs and configuration changes that are fully verifiable and auditable, making regulatory and license compliance pain free."
There are obviously other monitoring solutions on the market, but Codenotary would likely argue that its immutable database can give it a leg up against the competition, especially when it comes to audits and license compliance.
In January, Codenotary announced it had raised a $12.5 million Series B round, which brought its total funding to date to $18 million.

Q: Linking library from Xcode Workspace causes "File is already being linked" dialog to appear I have an Xcode (11.4.1- though this happened in 11.4 and 11.3) workspace. That workspace is composed of multiple iOS Swift static libraries. One of the libs: lib(A) needs to use another lib lib(B) located in the same workspace.
If I just try to import the module from some source file in lib(A) the compiler won't be able to find the symbols. Fair enough for "Find Implicit Dependencies" to work as I understand it, I have to Link Binary With Libraries; I can accept that, so I explicitly link it:
For lib(A) I go to its target and select Link Binary With Libraries under its Build Phases and select lib(B) from the workspace browser. When I do that I receive a warning dialog:
File is already being linked

If I press Cancel it still adds the selected item under Link Binary With Libraries, but now things build. Why the warning?
The same applies if I were to also add a Unit Testing target to the project for lib(A). If I explicitly link the required static libs, I get that warning. Pressing cancel adds the item, and things work.
Now, "things working" with Xcode is tempting just to back away slowly and take that for what it's worth. However, I'm curious what does that warning mean then/why is it there?  Clearly, according to the compiler, the linking is necessary since it does not compile without it. When adding the linking though it seemingly complains about it.

Wot I Think: Shadowverse
A fun mess after seven expansions
Austin Wood
8th June 2018 / 7:00PM
The crappiest common cards in Shadowverse look better than the best legendary cards in most of the collectible card games I've played, so you can imagine what Shadowverse's legendaries look like. They are stupidly, irresponsibly beautiful. Dragons with uncountable glistening scales, angels clad in impossibly pearlescent metal, musclebound demons flanked by swirling tongues of raven-black flame, to say nothing of all the hunky anime boys and cute anime girls. The legendaries are also stupidly, irresponsibly powerful, which pretty much sums the whole game up. Shadowverse is a game of extremes – sometimes great, sometimes not-so-great, but always a spectacle.
The basics will feel familiar if you've played Hearthstone or any of its distant relatives: two players fight by placing units, represented by cards, on a board and directing them to attack the enemy player or their units. Shadowverse introduces a few subtle differences to this formula. You only have 20 life, for example, and you build 40-card decks with up to three copies of any individual card. If you've played any CCG in the past four years, you'll pick up on all this in less time than it took me to write this paragraph. So what makes Shadowverse stand out? The answer: evolution.
Once you reach turn five, you can Evolve your minions. Evolving a minion ups its attack and defense by one or two and gives it Rush, letting it attack enemy minions the turn it's played. There are also Evolve-specific effects that summon other minions or deal damage, which are important when rationing your evolution points. Each Evolve costs one evolution point, and you only get two points if you go first. If you go second, you get three points and you get to Evolve on turn four. Apart from a few situational cards (and one busted legendary), there's no way to replenish your points, and make no mistake, they are the most important resource you have. Your mana count, the number of cards in your hand, even how much health you have – nothing compares to the importance of spending your evolution points wisely.
There is a palpable change in atmosphere when turns four and five roll around. The words "Can Evolve" flash across your screen and all of a sudden you're playing a game of chicken. You can't afford to Evolve recklessly, and neither can your opponent, so you wait. And wait. It could take one turn, it could take five. Eventually, inevitably, somebody will blink and it will all go to hell. The first Evolve of the match turns your quiet game of chicken into a horse race. You spend the first few turns conserving your energy and sizing each other up, but once you round that final turn, you both break and dump all your energy into gaining even a few inches of ground.
It might not sound like much, but buffing a minion and giving it Rush is a board-flip moment, and there are at least five of those moments in almost every game. Let's say we both have two 3/3 minions on the board. I play another 3/3 and Evolve it, turning it into a 5/5 with Rush. Let's also say my 5/5 deals three damage to an enemy minion when it Evolves. I use its ability to kill one of your minions, then I run it into your other one. Now I've got two 3/3s and a 5/2, and you've got nothing. Zip. Nada. A few seconds ago we were dead even, and now, because of one card, you're hopelessly behind. Or are you? If you've got evolution points, you can easily do the same thing to me: Evolve a minion, use its ability to kill my 5/2, and run it into one of my 3/3s. Or you may well have something even nastier in store. Now you're ahead, and I probably need to Evolve again to come back.
That's the power of evolution. It's a smart catch-up mechanism that helps prevent one-sided blowouts, and it's a precious resource that makes for flashy and exhilarating showdowns. Duking it out Darwin-style is even better since Evolved minions get new, upgraded art. Some are just mirrored and slightly gussied up versions, but most cards receive dramatic upgrades. I especially like the ones that tell a little story – a coy vampire flashes her fangs, a knight unsheathes her sword, a villager turns into a werewolf. It's a nice touch that really sells the power spike.
What and when you Evolve has a tremendous impact on your odds of winning, but you start planning your strategy well before turns four and five, and the bulk of your strategy comes down to your choice of class. There are eight in all, and each has a cool aesthetic, a central theme, and often some sort of ability that gives your cards powerful bonuses.
Bloodcraft, for example, is all about dealing damage to yourself to trigger Vengeance, a power-up that kicks in when you have 10 or less health. Vengeance gives minions abilities like Bane (Poisonous) and Drain (Lifesteal), and causes some spells to summon bat tokens on top of their usual effects. Similarly, Shadowcraft loves to kill its own creatures to generate Shadows which fuel Necromancy effects. Forestcraft focuses on generating fairy tokens and using them as fodder for cards that get stronger when you play several cards in a turn. Swordcraft makes lots of dudes and buffs them up, Runecraft builds souped-up spells, and Dragoncraft ramps its mana to play big ol' dragons.
The newest class, Portalcraft, shuffles powerful Artifacts into your deck and uses other cards to pull them back out. Portalcraft also has Resonance, which buffs your cards while your deck has an even number of cards left in it. Portalcraft's Artifacts are cool, but navigating Resonance is the best part of the class. It relies on a lot of weird mental arithmetic. Will I need Resonance active next turn? If so, can I afford to draw cards this turn? Should I put artifacts into my deck after I draw cards or before? And so on. It's a delight to play.
Shadowverse is seven expansions deep at this point, and newer cards have helped make classes less linear by adding alternate ways to play them, sort of like unofficial subclasses. My favorite class, Havencraft, comes in two main flavors. Traditionally, it deals with permanent spells called amulets, which take up a board slot but aren't actually minions. Most amulets have countdowns, meaning once the necessary number of turns pass, their timer hits zero and their effect activates, destroying the amulet. An amulet might draw you cards, kill a random enemy minion or, most importantly and most commonly, summon a minion, usually one that's way above the stat line for the amulet's mana cost. Amulets also cost time, so it's only natural that the minions that pop out would be bigger.
So, what, a class about waiting? Yawn. Well here's the second-act twist: using normal minions, spells and even other amulets, you can manipulate your countdowns. Rather than waiting, Havencraft is all about setting up explosive turns by building up multiple amulets and triggering them all at once. If I play a three-count amulet on turn one, I want to play a two-count amulet on turn two so they line up for a big push. Or I could play a four-count and reduce its timer by two on my next turn, or I could play it slow and pocket my amulets to prioritize minions which only work while I'm holding two or more amulets. Havencraft is inherently about games within games, and I can't get enough of the wonky foresight it revolves around.
Of course, that's assuming I'm playing an amulet-based deck. But if I'm playing what I've termed vampire Havencraft, a surprisingly vicious variant that damages the opponent whenever I recover health, I'm going to play more aggressively. Likewise, while I would normally generate a bunch of spells and buff them when playing Runecraft, I could instead focus on playing earth amulets and sacrificing them for bonus effects via Earth Rite. There are different sides to most classes, which helps break the usual aggro, control and mid-range molds.
But while Shadowverse's classes play differently and feel firmly defined, their individuality is undermined by how rigidly and predictably cards are balanced. There are bronze, silver, gold and legendary cards, and higher-rank cards are better in every conceivable way. The optimal cards are basically laid out for me, so no matter what class I played, I felt forced to play as many golds and legendaries as possible, which limits the strategy of building a deck.
Legendaries are the worst offenders. It's pretty telling that AI bosses play the same decks, but at higher levels they're just stacked with legendaries. No, an all-legendary deck is not optimal, but the fact that an all-legendary deck works at all, especially in the hands of such astoundingly stupid AI, says a lot about how Shadowverse distributes power. For all intents and purposes, legendaries are the capitalist one percent. I hate the burst damage they provide more than anything. Remember, you have 20 maximum health. There are several legendaries capable of dealing six, seven, or even 10 damage out of absolutely nowhere. Here's an analogy for you Hearthstone fans: imagine if Pyroblast dealt 15 damage. Yeah.
One thing Hearthstone has always done pretty well is offer great cards at every rarity. You've got dozens of workaday commons that earn their keep, a comparable amount of viable rares, a few handfuls of strong epics, and a couple of standout legendaries. Shadowverse is basically the total opposite. You need lots of gold cards to even compete, and nearly every legendary is so absurd that you'd be a fool not to play it. The worst part is that you can run three copies of every card, including legendaries. Coupled with the stingy crafting system, this makes top-tier lists untenably expensive. Without spending real money, and without sacrificing the basics of my collection, I was barely able to craft five legendaries after 30 hours of play, and that's with new player bonuses backing me up. That's not even enough for one top-tier deck.
There are a few silver linings. Shadowverse gives out more free packs than most of the card games I've played, and packs come with eight cards, which is nice. There's also a visual novel-style story mode for each class, and completing one yields a decent chunk of change you can use to kickstart your crafting. And you only need to worry about crafting cards from the five most recent sets if you play the Standard format rather than Unlimited. I can't recommend Standard strongly enough, not just because it's the cheaper way to play, but also because Shadowverse's newer sets are strictly better than the ones which have rotated out of Standard.
Then there's always the poor man's card pack: Take Two, Shadowverse's answer to Hearthstone's Arena mode. Take Two quickly became my favorite way to play because it guarantees equal access to the best cards, which is especially valuable in a game where decks can cost you a kidney. It's also a fun limited mode in its own right. Like most modern CCG drafts, you build a 30-card deck from random choices. The catch is that you pick between two pairs of cards each round. So, you can take cards A and B or C and D. It's a small and seemingly arbitrary change – what if Hearthstone Arena, but twice – but drafting two cards at once does make you approach choices differently. Sometimes it's worth it to eat a bad card if the other card in the pair is exactly what you need.
That's quite a few bandaids, but they can't fix the gaping wound that is Shadowverse's imbalanced card economy. That said, it isn't enough to outright ruin the game. It's a mess, but it's a fun mess, like 52 pickup. It's got the prettiest rectangles I've ever done seen, the back and forth of evolving makes every match exciting, and despite its faults Shadowverse can still produce the highs that keep me coming back to card games. My latest match was textbook CCG fun: I managed to barely scrape by in an unfavorable matchup, only to win at one health on the back of a few lucky top-decks on my end and two weak evolutions from my opponent. In that brief moment, I was over the moon about Shadowverse, and sometimes that's enough.
Shadowverse is out now on Windows and MacOSX via Steam and is free-to-play.

Patch Lady – .NET previews but…..
So this is the third week of the month when normally we should see previews for next month's 7 and 8 platforms.
….and well the word "normally" is actually a misnomer as we have no real normal anymore.
I'll be updating the master chart list accordingly.
We do not have a Windows 7 or 8 preview (yet) so I'll keep my eyes peeled for any 7 or 8 preview updates that "normally" should be out yesterday. We are still tracking networking issues in Windows 7, and 1803 still is to be deferred.
Go in the control panel, then into services. Find Function Discovery Resource Publication, and set it to automatic and start the service.
Microsoft looks to be ready to try to tackle the low end of the PC market with a new low-end, low-cost Surface line-up. But the big question is why.
So we can expect a tablet the size of a small iPad Pro, with 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage, for $400. Plus $100 for the pen. Plus $120 for the keyboard/cover.
Then there's the "upgrade privacy warning" patch that looks like more advertising, the bizarre "Surface – HIDClass 4/26/2018 12:00:00 AM – 3.3.206.0" driver for non-Surface machines, Spectre v2 microcode fixes for Win10 1803… and no Monthly Rollup Previews.

VFC Fellows have the most important success indicator you won't find on a resume: an entrepreneurial mindset.
What motivated you to launch a non-profit charity organization?
When was a year into working at McKinsey, I had an itch to engage in policy and issues facing the country. I started working with five others friends to start working on an organization called Canada25.
My goal there was to find a meaningful and productive way for young Canadians around the world to get involved in public policy. We found that they lacked meaningful outlets to get engaged. Fortunately, and in with big gratitude, McKinsey allowed me to have paid leave to set this organization up and run it out of their office.
During this time, I realized that there was space to come creatively with solutions to public policy in Canada, and that it can make a big difference. I always knew that this is what I wanted to dedicate my career too. I've always enjoyed building things and working on really tough problems and found this is where my heart wanted to be.
What advice would you give someone trying to re-build their confidence?
You have to lean on a friend or friends. I remember a friend of mine asked me to come over one day after a job interview, and she helped me think about 'who am i, and how do I want to project myself in the world.'
She tangibly helped me walk through questions like 'tell me about yourself.' She advised that when answering such questions, you have to be intentional with your answers, because most people ramble on. Start with your personal story, and this will paint a picture; and showcases many characteristics of yourself. From there, you build on that foundation of your story.
