This file photo shows a mockup of a Minuteman 3 nuclear missile used for training by missile maintenance crews at F. E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming. Scientists have come up with a novel way to help verify reductions in nuclear warheads.
New test could hint at nuclear weapons inspections of the future
How can nuclear weapons inspections determine if a warhead is real or fake without opening it up and giving away national secrets? Scientists have devised a test.
By Pete Spotts Staff writer
@pspotts
Researchers in the US and Britain say they have devised a simplified way to verify reductions in nuclear warheads that would meet the need of future arms control agreements while at the same time keeping information about a warhead's design secret.
The prospect for leaks of classified weapon-design information has been a concern within the arms-control community as it weighs different technological approaches to verifying whether a warhead is the real deal without opening it up. No country wants to reveal their designs to potential adversaries or to those who might sell the information to the highest bidder.
Researchers from Princeton University and Microsoft Research, based in Cambridge, Mass., propose taking a page from the computer-security community by comparing measurements from a warhead an inspector randomly selects with similar measurements from warheads an inspector wants to verify as the real deal.
In the process, no information relevant to weapon design finds its way into an inspector's hand. The only information an inspector sees is match or no match between the warhead being verified and the "template" warhead. No match? That's when, in effect, one country calls the other's bluff. It's known as the zero-knowledge protocol.
"The day the Russians say: We're going to dismantle 500 warheads, this is the day you really want to be sure that whatever they declare, these are authentic warheads, and they're not somehow moving the real ones to a different location," says Alexander Glaser, an assistant professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at Princeton University in New Jersey, and the lead author of a study setting out the approach. The results appear in this week's issue of the journal Nature.
Currently, nuclear arms agreements between the US and Russia involve reducing the number of strategic weapons that each country deploys. The easiest way to verify that is to count bombers, land-based missile silos, or ballistic-missile submarines, the researchers say.
But when a missile is scrapped, its warheads typically are stored, notes Hans Kristensen, director of the Federation of American Scientists' nuclear information project. At some point, they become too expensive to store, so some eventually are dismantled. But no strategic-arms treaty at the moment requires either country to destroy the warheads they no longer deploy.
Current frosty relations between the US and Russia, as well as between President Obama and congressional Republicans, preclude reaching a warhead-destroying agreement anytime soon. But that type of agreement will emerge at some point, suggests James Acton, a senior associate in the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace's Nuclear Policy Program. It's wise to have one's verification approaches in order before such talks might begin, he writes in a commentary that accompanies the study by Dr. Glaser and colleagues.
"It's a very interesting and promising approach," says Mr. Kristensen.
The technique involves sending a beam of high-energy neutrons into the template warhead and measuring the amount and properties of the neutrons that pass through it. The information is loaded into detectors set up to verify the authenticity of additional warheads. When the additional warheads are subjected to the same neutron beams, the neutron signatures are compared with the template's.
At this point, the team has used the approach on a test target and modeled the results, which indicate the approach will work. The next steps involve setting up a larger-scale demonstration program, Glaser says. This includes working on approaches that will reduce the likelihood that the system can be scammed or that could lead to errors in the measurements.
"My hope is that within a year, we might be able to invite folks in and really show them" the approach's potential, Glaser says.

Q: Angular with Spring boot static does not work I have an spring boot app, which contains an angular front
like this:
src/main/resources/static/zanori2
Where in zanori2 I have the result of ng build some like:
index.html, index.js, favico.ico and so on
I tried this resourceHandle:
@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
public class WebMvcConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {
    /*@Override
    public void addResourceHandlers(ResourceHandlerRegistry registry) {*/
        //registry.addResourceHandler("/**/*")
        /*.addResourceLocations("classpath:/static/zanori2/")
        .resourceChain(true)
        .addResolver(new PathResourceResolver() {
            @Override
            protected Resource getResource(String resourcePath,
                Resource location) throws IOException {
                Resource requestedResource = location.createRelative(resourcePath);
                return requestedResource.exists() && requestedResource.isReadable() ? requestedResource
                : new ClassPathResource("/static/zanori2/index.html");
            }
        });
    }
}

However when I go to: localhost:8080/zanori2/index.html it return me to localhost:8080 and the js files works.
However it is weird because I am not allowed to share the url because if I go directly to  localhost:8080 I get a not found page.
And with this other configuration:
@Configuration
@EnableWebMvc
public class WebMvcConfig implements WebMvcConfigurer {

    @Autowired
    private Environment env;

    @Override
    public void addResourceHandlers(ResourceHandlerRegistry registry) {

        /* Caching strategy */
        boolean prodMode = Arrays.asList(env.getActiveProfiles()).contains("pro");
        Integer cachePeriod = prodMode ? null : 0;
        boolean useResourceCache = prodMode;

        VersionResourceResolver versionResourceResolver = new VersionResourceResolver();
        versionResourceResolver.addContentVersionStrategy("/**/*.js", "/**/*.css");
        AppCacheManifestTransformer transformer = new AppCacheManifestTransformer();

        /* robots.txt */
        registry.addResourceHandler("/robots.txt")
                .addResourceLocations("classpath:/static/robots.txt");

        /* All other resources */
        registry.addResourceHandler("/**")
                .addResourceLocations("classpath:/static/zanori2")
                .setCachePeriod(cachePeriod)
                .resourceChain(useResourceCache)
                .addResolver(versionResourceResolver)
                .addTransformer(transformer);
    }

    @Override
    public void addViewControllers(ViewControllerRegistry registry) {
        /* Make sure Thymeleaf views are not accessible directly as static resources */
        registry.addRedirectViewController("/app/*.html", "/");
        /* Default mapping */
        registry.addRedirectViewController("/", "/app/index.html");
        /* Application entry */
        registry.addViewController("/app/index.html").setViewName("index");
    }
}

I go to localhost:8080/zanori2/index.html and I keep in the same url however my js files are not found so is not working too.
I do not found any example of this working properly.
Example of the problem:

A: Mapping of static assets
Spring will automatically search in a number of places for paths which aren't matched by any controllers or other settings in the web config. These locations are currently checked by default:
classpath:/META-INF/resources/
classpath:/resources/
classpath:/static/
classpath:/public/

You can override this behaviour by setting the
spring.web.resources.static-locations

application property.
Starting from a clean project and adding:
spring.web.resources.static-locations=classpath:/static/zanori2/

to your application.properties will make Spring search the intended path for static resources.
Mapping paths in single-page frontends to /
Remember in all of the below that the mapping to static assets has already been changed by the above so in the below, the path /a/b will REALLY fetch /static/zanori2/a/b. Also remember that a Spring controller will always have precedence over static assets so if you define a Spring controller which interferes with a static path, it will be used instead.
If you also support a single-page frontend with internal routing, you need to add some configuration to the WebMvcConfigurer. The trick is to still load all static content from its real location but to forward all the paths inside the single-page app to /. Assuming that paths inside the app will never have a file suffix preceded by a period (.), which typically all real static files from the backend have, this can be done by some additionss to your WebMvcConfigurer.
The additions depend on which kind of pattern matching is used in SpringMVC.
Path pattern matching
With path pattern matching (which is the new default in up-to-date Spring Boot):
@Override
public void addViewControllers(ViewControllerRegistry registry) {
    registry
        .addViewController("/{path1:[\\w]+}")
        .setViewName("forward:/")
    registry
        .addViewController("/{path1}/{path2:[\\w]+}")
        .setViewName("forward:/")
    registry
        .addViewController("/{path1}/{path2}/{path3:[\\w]+}")
        .setViewName("forward:/")
}

With path pattern matching, there is no easy way to do this for an arbitrary number of path levels so you have to add one of these statements for every level of nesting your frontend internal paths should support. This is because path patterns only allow matching of multiple path levels (**) at the end of a pattern.
The above supports up to three levels so when directly entering in the browser address bar:
/
/* / is served */

/a
/* / is served which can then route internally to /a */

/a/b
/* / is served which can then route internally to /a/b */

/a/b/c
/* / is served which can then route internally to /a/b/c */

/a/b/c/d
/* will NOT work, tries to serve actual /a/b/c/d */

/a/b/c.txt
/* / will NOT work, tries to serve actual /a/b/c.txt since contains a period */

What's going on here? As said, these are path patterns which you can read about here:

*

*Each {pathX} matches a path segment and stores the path in the variable pathX (which we don't care about).

*Each variable must have a unique name within its matching pattern.

*In the last path segment, we match a non-empty sequence of digits, letters and underscore. You can modify this regex if you want but it's quite restricted what you can do. The goal is to NOT match any paths with periods in them because these are likely real static files.

*There are other path patterns which are useful but they may not be combined with our final regex pattern.

Ant pattern matching
With ant pattern matching, which used to be the default, similar rules apply but with some differences. Path pattern matching is generally more potent but as previously said, it does not allow you to match an arbitrary number of path levels (**) at no other place then at the end.
With ant pattern matching, the previous config can be simplified into
@Override
public void addViewControllers(ViewControllerRegistry registry) {
    registry
        .addViewController("/**/{path:[\\w]+}")
        .setViewName("forward:/")
}

Now, we match an arbitrary number of path levels before the last path, yielding the following results:
/
/* / is served */

/a
/* / is served which can then route internally to /a */

/a/b
/* / is served which can then route internally to /a/b */

/a/b/c
/* / is served which can then route internally to /a/b/c */

/a/b/c/d
/* / is served which can then route internally to /a/b/c/d */

/a/b/c.txt
/* / will NOT work, tries to serve actual /a/b/c.txt since contains a period */

So depending on what you need in the rest of your app, I would choose one of these solutions, preferably the one with ant patterns.

We Can't 'Blame' The 'Black Girls Rock!' Audience For Being In Awe Of Ledisi
SoulUK
November 4, 2013 | 2:15 pm
BET's Black Girls Rock! was chock full of stellar performances from beginning to end -- and how often can you say that of any awards show? One of the most impressive and stunning showings of the night came from BGR and SoulBounce favorite Ledisi with her smoking hot performance of her latest single "I Blame You." Taken from her upcoming album The Truth, Ledisi looked slim, trim and fine as wine as she belted out the fun and funky number backed by a bevy of dancers in equally skintight catsuits and even showed out with an impressive dance routine. Of course, the real star of the show were those killer vocals -- has anyone ever heard Ledisi hit a bum note? -- which had the audience whooping and hollering like nobody's business. Hit the bounce to see and hear just what all the fuss was about.

Q: Velocity template phone number formatting I'm quite new to Velocity templates, and try to get a phone number of 8 digits displayed like "12 34 56 78" or "123 45 678".
I've tried a lot of variations, including

*

*$number.format('00 00 00 00',${phone})

*$number.format('#0 00 00 00',$phone)

*$display.printf("%s %s %s %s", $phone.substring(0,2), $phone.substring(2,4), $phone.substring(4,6), $phone.substring(6,8))

Where $number = new NumberTool() and $display = new DisplayTool()
The two first outputs the number without spaces, while the last one is not parsed by Velocity.

A: Method three will work.  What's wrong is that $phone is a number in your code and substring() will work on strings.  It is probably printing "null" in your code when the template is resolved.
The simple fix is to convert $phone to a string.  Just do something like:
#set ($phoneString = $phone.toString())
$display.printf("%s %s %s %s", $phoneString.substring(0,2), $phoneString.substring(2,4), $phoneString.substring(4,6), $phoneString.substring(6,8))

and you'll be good to go.
For anybody looking for a US-style phone format try:
$displayTool.printf("(%s) %s-%s", $phoneString.substring(0,3), $phoneString.substring(3,6), $phoneString.substring(6,10))

A: I ended up for now with a separate class to do the formatting via MessageFormat and putting that on the context:
$phoneNumber.format($phone)
I guess there must be an easier way to do it directly inside the template?


In its last annual survey* which was conducted in late winter of 2010, the UNC Charlotte Urban Institute included a few questions on a variety of issues currently facing the people of Mecklenburg County. Three of the questions directly touched on the state of the economy in Mecklenburg County. This brief report summarizes the findings from the responses to those questions. Obviously, these data are somewhat dated (about six months from the time the information was gathered); however, the needle on the economy has moved little during those six months.
Not only was the economy the "most important" issue facing this community at the time of the survey, other economy related issues – homelessness, social issues and affordable housing – probably were more elevated in importance than they would normally be during a period of economic expansion. The two other highest ranked issues in terms of importance – crime and safety and public education – historically have been viewed as highly important regardless of the state of the economy. The issue that usually moves up the list in importance when the economy is strong is the environment. At times during the robust economic expansion of the 1990s, the environment often ranked as the most important issue facing our community. The bottom four on this list would almost certainly be ranked higher were there not so much concern about the economy.
A number of demographic questions were also asked on the annual survey. The responses to these questions allow an analysis of variation among demographic groups in their responses to this question about the ranking of the issues. Since this article is about the economy, the demographic variation on that variable will be included here. Essentially, there was no substantial variation among the demographic groups – race, age, marital status, education level, income level, and gender of the respondent had little impact on his or her response about the importance of the economy.
Two other questions about the economy have been used continuously on surveys administered by the Institute for thirty years. One question asked the respondent to judge his or her current economic situation with the same time a year ago: "Compared to this time last year, would you say your current economic situation is better, about the same, or worse?" The second question asked the respondent for his or her perception about the future: "Thinking ahead about your economic situation, do you believe that you will be better off, about the same, or worse off a year from now than you are now?" This is usually viewed as the optimism/pessimism view of the future economic state, not only of the person answering the question but collectively for the total population.
The responses to the question,"Compared to this time last year, would you say your current economic situation is better, about the same, or worse?" are found below.
Based on past experience, the responses would have been much different were the economy in an expansion mode. The "better off" numbers likely would have been above 50%, the "about the same" would have been lower, and one would not have found one-third of the respondents saying that they were worse off. Therefore, these responses clearly reflect the fact that the economy has indeed been in the doldrums.
In terms of demographic groups, those more likely to respond "better off" were whites, those between the ages of 25 and 34, married, college graduates, and those with incomes above $60,000 per year. Conversely those more likely to respond "worse off" were blacks by a narrow margin, those between the ages of 18 and 24 and those from 45 to 64, those widowed, divorced, or never married, those who are not college graduates, and those with lower incomes. Who were the respondents indicating that they were holding their own by responding "about the same?" African-Americans, those 55 and above and particularly those 65 and over, those who are widowed or divorced, college graduates and those with less than a high school education, and those with incomes lower than $20,000 and between $100,000 and $149,999 were somewhat more likely to indicate little change in their economic status over the past year. These data contain few surprises. Those who judged themselves "better off" over the past year were those who, in fact, would respond the same no matter the state of the economy because their opportunities for success are greater. Those worse off tend, in general, to be poorer, less educated, and in a one adult household. Regardless of economic circumstance, these are the folks with less opportunity.
The responses to the question, "Thinking ahead about your economic situation, do you believe that you will be better off, about the same, or worse off a year from now than you are now?" are found below.
These responses are fairly optimistic considering the state of the economy when these questions were asked, and they support the notion that Mecklenburg residents are generally optimistic even in the midst of challenging circumstances. These numbers, in fact, would change some, but not substantially, if we were experiencing a strong economy. The "better off" percentage would be higher, probably in the 50 to 60 percent range with the "about the same" category having somewhat fewer, probably in the 30 to 40 percent range, and the "worse off" response showing little change.
Demographically, those more likely to believe that they would be "better off" a year from the time the question was asked were African-Americans, those between 18 and 24 and 35 and 44, those never married, those with less than a high school education, and those with incomes between $40,000 and $59,999. On the "worse off" dimension, there was little variation – those from age 45 through 65 and over and those either widowed or divorced were slightly more likely to believe that their economic situation would be poorer over the next year. Among those more likely to see themselves about the same a year from the time the responses were given were whites, those aged 65 and over, those with graduate work, and those with incomes of $20,000 to $39,999 and of $100,000 to $149,999. In summary, those most "optimistic" were the young, and those most "pessimistic" were the older respondents. That finding is not surprising – optimism is often associated with being young. A troubling thought about these data – one that has been pointed out in the national media – is that if the economic performance continues to be subdued over a long period of time, will the enthusiasm of the young diminish.
In conclusion, the information from the latest annual survey conducted by the UNC Charlotte Urban Institute clearly shows that the attention of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg community has been focused on the economy. The data from the question about one's economic situation as compared to a year ago reflect the damaging blow that the local economy suffered over the last year, with just over one-fifth of the population saying that they were better off now than a year ago. However, the responses to the question about the future of the economy portray the inherent optimism of the people of this county, with about two-fifths believing that they will be better off over the next year, a fairly amazing number considering the depths of the recession and accompanying economic downturn. The most troubling thought about this situation is at what point in this continuing downturn might this optimism be replaced by a more pessimistic outlook.
The Institute will be revisiting these questions in the 2011 Annual Survey, to be conducted in April 2011. Comparing the 2011 and 2010 survey responses should provide us with an interesting look at the residual effects of the delayed economic recovery, and whether that delay has finally begun to test the traditional resiliency and optimism that has long characterized Mecklenburg's citizens.

*This survey was conducted in 2010 between February 15 and March 15. The sample size was 400 Mecklenburg County residents, randomly selected using a listed-sample, with a margin of error of ±5 percent at the 95 percent confidence level.

Last week, it was burgers that captivated my being, and truth be told, my meat cravings have not subsided. Nope. In fact, I've been grilling up a storm at my favorite yakiniku hot spots — seasoned beef, short ribs and ribeye are my top picks. However, during a recent conversation with my co-worker about our mutual love for meat, he suggested I try beef tongue to add some excitement to my dining adventures.
"Really?," I asked, unsure of what to expect. Honestly, I didn't know if I could stomach it.
Beef tongue is deemed a delicacy in some parts of the world, and for good reason! Beef tongue is the tongue of a cow, and is very high in fat content, thus making it extremely tender, intensely flavorful and simply awesome! When cooked and seasoned perfectly, it's one of best meats you'll ever have.
Well, enough chatter, Ono readers … Here at the following Ono, You Know establishments, we'll let the beef tongues do the talking. Whether it's served yakiniku style or in a stew, I promise you'll be proud to go beyond your comfort zone to get your protein fix.
For any indecisive diner, Kit n Kitchen on University Avenue will leave you pondering the menu for days. The plethora of options is mind boggling and the fusion of cuisine is superb. For example, hints of Chinese, Italian and even Moroccan flavors accent many of the dishes, and this is the place to be if you want to expose the palate to wonders beyond its comfort zone.
For starters, awaken your senses to Grilled Beef Tongue. Priced at $8.95, this appetizer has consistently received a positive response from guests.
The meat is sliced into bite-size pieces and a special shoyu sauce enhances the flavor.
The editor is ready to try Kit n Kitchen's Grilled Beef Tongue.
Kit n Kitchen wows diners once more with its unique take on Beef Tongue Stew ($14.95). This entree is abundant in flavor and features morsels of sliced beef tongue that has been marinated in a savory stew for about three hours. The meat, extremely tender, just falls apart. Your choice of spaghetti or rice also complements the dish.
And if you love beef tongue, but tomato stew isn't your thing, Kit n Kitchen can pair the meat with a black pepper sauce or a Hong Kong-style cream pepper sauce. Better yet, make it a beef tongue marathon and sample all of the different concoctions.
Traditional Japanese yakiniku dining is spiced up with bursts of Korean flair at Heijouen, a popular restaurant chain in Tokyo, Japan, that recently opened its doors in Hawaii.
An interactive dining experience, yakiniku is a treat for the whole family, as customers cook their preferred raw meats on their very own private tabletop grill. And the chef makes it priority to only offer the best cuts of meat. According to Shimada, the chefs at Heijouen hand cut all meats, which results in exceptional quality and marbling.
Premium meats such as Beef Fine Kalbi, Beef Fine Outside Skirt and Beef Fine Loin are among the bestsellers here. Yet, when you want to be adventurous, Thick Cut Tongue ($10.80) is the way to go. Now, if you've never tried beef tongue before, it's an acquired taste — you either love it or you hate it. One, bite into Heijouen's beef tongue … and it's … Mmm, onolicious love.
For a thinner cut of meat, Fine Tongue ($7.80) also is available, and Shimada recommends shio sauce, composed of salt, pepper and sesame oil, to accompany the beef tongue.
Finally, cheers to Heijouen's full bar, which showcases a number of beer, wines and mixed drinks.
Situated within Waikiki Sand Villa Hotel is Them Dining. Renowned for its Japanese-French fusion, this humble oasis of a restaurant seats about 20 people and goes big on taste. Open daily for lunch and dinner, I was curious as to what its Beef Tongue Stew amounted to.
Well, it wasn't long before chef Kazuo Shimada began raving about the restaurant's Beef Tongue Stew ($20.50), a demi-glace stew beautified with pieces of melt-in-your-mouth beef tongue, seasoned and seared to perfection, along with potato, broccoli and red bell pepper. A side of rice and a fresh salad complete the meal.
Complimentary parking for Them Dining (valet only) is available at Waikiki Sand Villa Hotel, as well as meter parking on nearby streets.
Them Dining conquers the biggest of appetites!

Q: HTML page with multiple selection text changing according to previous choices I am looking to write an HTML code similar to the one below:
<!DOCTYPE html>

This is some text with a few <select id="mySelect1">
  <option value="word1">Word 1</option>
  <option value="word2">Word 2</option>
</select> that can be changed and a <select id="mySelect2">
  <option value="word3">Word 3</option>
  <option value="word4">Word 4</option>
</select> that can be replaced too

<button onclick="displayText()">Display Text</button>

But the text and option will change based on choices made in previous selection boxes.
E.g. if I choose in the first selection box option 2 then the following sentences and choices will be changed accordingly.
It should be some kind of flow-chart in the background to "program" the form behavior.
Any idea how can I do that?

A: Styling
Via CSS
A CSS-only solution should exist by using the relative selector :has() and combinators. This would remove the need for any JS for styling.
Personally, I suggest to use CSS for styling where possible.
Example of using :has():

#p1:has([value="no"]:checked) + #p2 {
  display: none;
}

  Show #p2?
  <select id="select1">
    <option value="yes">Yes</option>
    <option value="no">No</option>
  </select>

  This is #p2.

  This is #p3, usually following #p2.

Via JavaScript
By using event delegation (see below) we can write an input listener to update styles, so that the visible content reflects the content of the new page. Example:

const commonAncestor = document.body;

commonAncestor.addEventListener("input", () => {
  p2.toggleAttribute("hidden", select1.value !== "Yes");
});

  Activate #p2?
  <select id="select1">
    <option>Yes</option>
    <option>No</option>
  </select>

  This is #p2.

  This is #p3, usually after #p2.

You may want to update the styles initially, which has to be done after the (relevant) DOM content has loaded:

const commonAncestor = document.body;
commonAncestor.addEventListener("input", updateStyles);

// Using "DOMContentLoaded" should always work:
addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", updateStyles);

function updateStyles() {
  p2.toggleAttribute("hidden", select1.value !== "Yes");
}

  Activate #p2?
  <select id="select1">

    <option>Yes</option>
    <option selected>No</option>
  </select>

  This is #p2.

  This is #p3, usually after #p2.

Event delegation
We can handle the input events of all <select>s in a single listener via event delegation:

const commonAncestor = document.body;

commonAncestor.addEventListener("input", evt => {
  // Handle input events; example: (Log event details)
  const message = `Target ${evt.target.id} changed to value: ${evt.target.value}`;
  console.log(message);
});
<select id="select1">
  <option value="option1">Option 1</option>
  <option value="option2">Option 2</option>
</select>
<select id="select2">
  <option value="option1">Option 1</option>
  <option value="option2">Option 2</option>
</select>

Excursus: Named objects
Elements with IDs are named objects. The DOM API provides a way to access named objects as globals:

console.log(div1);
console.log(div2); // Doesn't exist

But notice this note in the specification:

As a general rule, relying on this will lead to brittle code.
Which IDs end up mapping to this API can vary over time,
as new features are added to the web platform, for example.
Instead of this, use document.getElementById() or document.querySelector().

So to have non-brittle code, you should not rely on named objects to be accessible like this. Instead, you can query for them one by one, and assign each to a variable.
For brevity of my code snippets only, I chose to dismiss this warning and use named objects.
Alternatively, instead on relying on this functionality to exist on window, you can mock this functionality on any other object with Proxy:

const elements = new Proxy({}, {
  get(target, prop, receiver) {
    return document.getElementById(prop);
  }
});

console.log('As "named objects":');
console.log("-Text of p1:", elements.p1.textContent);
console.log("-Text of p2:", elements.p2.textContent);
console.log("-Text of p3:", elements.p3?.textContent);

First paragraph.

Second paragraph.

Or define a helper function, if the only benefit you are after is short code:

function byId(id) {
  return document.getElementById(id);
}

console.log('As "named objects":');
console.log("-Text of p1:", byId("p1").textContent);
console.log("-Text of p2:", byId("p2").textContent);
console.log("-Text of p3:", byId("p3")?.textContent);

First paragraph.

Second paragraph.

Get final text
To get the final text we can use Element.innerText, which is styling-aware. That means you only get the visible content; the content we want:

const commonAncestor = document.getElementById("common-ancestor");
commonAncestor.addEventListener("input", updateStyles);
addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", updateStyles);

function updateStyles() {
  p2.toggleAttribute("hidden", select1.value !== "Yes");
}

const button = document.querySelector("button");
button.addEventListener("click", () => {
  // Clone text container
  const clone = commonAncestor.cloneNode(true);

  // Replace <select>s with their selected option
  const selectElements = clone.querySelectorAll("select");
  selectElements.forEach(clonedSelect => {
    const select = document.getElementById(clonedSelect.id);

    // Use either as replacement
    const selectedValue = select.value;
    const selectedLabel = select.selectedOptions[0].textContent;

    clonedSelect.replaceWith(selectedValue);
  });

  // Get style-aware content
  document.body.append(clone);
  const text = clone.innerText;
  clone.remove();

  // Use content
  console.log("Text:", text);
});

    Show #p2?
    <select id="select1">
      <option>Yes</option>
      <option selected>No</option>
    </select>

    This is #p2.

    This is #p3, usually after #p2.

<button type="button">Log text</button>

Sidenote: When styling via CSS, you would have to stringify the paragraphs and replace the <select>s in reverse tree-order, because you specified that no elements prior to but only following a <select> are affected.
When styling via JS (as in the example above), you shouldn't have any problems, since the elements have their styles inlined.
Explanation
Unfortunately, a stringified <select> includes all its options, so we have to replace the <select> with its selected option manually (e.g. with Element.replaceWith()).
To not destroy our DOM, we can work on a cloned subtree via Node.cloneNode().
Cloning a node clones its "HTML representation", which for <select>s doesn't include the user-selection. Since the cloned and original <select> should select the same option, we can get the expected selected option by the original's selectedIndex (or similar). We can get the corresponding original <select> via its ID, since the clone has the same.
The content getter Element.innerText is only style-aware if the element is part of a DOM tree. This means we have to briefly append it to the DOM to work correctly.

No Deal Today It Seems
Like everyone else, I've been watching and waiting for news today on the takeover front. And it looks like they've finally all decided to head off for Christmas without everything quite signed and sealed (just where is their sense of priority?). According to the club site, the acquisition is at an "advanced stage", with Richard Murray commenting that "we expect to make a more substantive statement very soon". So, the pre-Xmas notional deadline seemingly hasn't been met, but there's no reason to read anything into it. There's no indication of problems, the weather may have interfered with planned meetings, and aside from keeping to the previously indicated date it really doesn't matter whether it's done today or next week (unless of course Dennis has something booked for new year – and no, I don't have any idea if he is involved; and yes, like everyone else I hope he isn't).
Maybe there will still be some announcement at the Southampton game, if it goes ahead (although the Walsall programme still brings a wry smile to my face: inside front page news story about the takeover confirming the details released but at the bottom "more on the potential takeover can be found in managing director Stephen Kavanagh's column on page 11"; turn to page 11 and "unfortunately there is little more I can reveal regarding the potential takeover of the club"). Hopefully it will, if not just to reward those who turned up on Thursday to help.
The situation through the day did raise the question of who amongst us is sad enough to be hanging around pencil poised through Christmas Eve to be the first to comment. I guess at least some of the overseas contributors would have had some time advantage here, but I wasn't going anywhere and wrapping the prezzies could wait (especially as Lyon only arrives in London on Sunday – silly girl didn't realise there was an earlier kick-off and, even assuming there are flights in, won't be able to accompany me if it goes ahead). Then there's the 'tree falling in the forest' problem: just who might be sad enough to be looking for anything written on Christmas Eve when the news is actually that there isn't any definitive news?
I've been reading other bloggers' posts on the takeover and not surprisingly most comment seems to centre on a certain Mr Wise. Maybe the point to make is that the two things we know are first, that the buyers are a consortium, not an individual; and second, it's headed by Peter Varney. Unless he is just a temporary front man, it's fair to assume that he'll be the new chairman and the major operational participant. If that's the case, I don't think we should be overly concerned just whose cash is involved. Murray's pledges are good enough to provide as much guarantee as can be hoped for that there's no asset-stripping involved (ie selling the ground in the event that things don't work out as planned). There are potential downsides in being owned by a consortium, but looking on the positives a consortium has to have an agreed plan of action which brought it together. It may all unravel further down the line (which would raise the issue of whether members of the consortium would be ready to sell up to anyone on any terms), but we can't think that far ahead.
I'm continuing to assume that the new owners will have just one priority in mind – getting us back to The Championship. It's wrong to say we can't survive in this league, but we have a ground too big now for the third flight and despite the Walsall setback we're still in a position to make the rest of the season all about whether we can secure promotion. That's all I care about; it's why going out to Brentford left me indifferent and why I won't be going to Tottenham for the cup game.
So, at least we can all clock off now and devote a day to other matters. Apparently it's someone's birthday tomorrow and we all get presents. Three points on Sunday, followed by three more on Wednesday, three more on Saturday and three more on Monday will do very nicely thank you. I can't tell Santa I've been good, but I promise I'll be better if that helps. A Merry Christmas to all and sundry.
Played Crap And Lost
Having been embarrassed for 44 minutes by a non-league side on Thursday evening, just why we thought we should beat a third-tier team, albeit one propping up the table, is a mystery. Parkinson's excuse for the first-half against Luton was the disruption to training and rustiness; presumably today it will be about fatigue. Fact is there was no good excuse for a dire display that got what it deserved, just possibly a reason. Call it what you will: complacency, arrogance, poor mental attitude. Make no mistake, this was a far worse defeat than Brighton. We've just come off the back of two regrettable performances against Luton, albeit with the second one partially redeemed in the second half, and we've seen it before this season against teams at or around the bottom. Football isn't that complicated a game. If the commitment and energy levels drop and players don't work hard enough to create space, you're running risks against determined opposition with something obvious to play for. Played crap and lost.
I don't know if the recent run and going second has encouraged a view among the players that we are good enough to play within ourselves and still grind out a result. But through the first half today I kept remembering how the first season in the Championship went and a period during it when we managed to win games by fairly narrow margins and without going flat out. I thought then for a while that that team had enough about it to get away with it. As it turned out it didn't and the end-result was a loss of momentum and failure. If you want an easy ride in a game against lowly opposition you impose yourself and win the game, then coast if you must. You don't amble around for much of the game expecting something to happen. Today far too often the player with the ball, often a defender, looked up to see nobody moving, coming short, making available an easy pass, or making runs further up the pitch. The result was usually a hoof forward because that was the only available alternative. Avoiding aimless balls forward isn't about instructions; it's about players putting in the graft and making space.
Walsall played the better football, passed the ball, had forwards who held the ball up and laid it off to willing runners, and had midfielders and defenders ready to hussle us and scrap for possession. It isn't rocket science, just basics. Our recent run was sparked by reaction to the Brighton game and if today is to become just a bad day at the office there needs to be a similar reaction, starting at Hartlepool (what happens at Brentford is irrelevant, what happens at Spurs is only relevant for the bank balance).
With Elliot and Benson passed fit and Dailly still suspended, the team lined up as would have been expected, the same as the starting X1 against Luton. That meant Martin, Reid, Sodje and Abbot on the bench, alongside a goalkeeper with a number 40 according to the announcer (presumably Worner wasn't fit, which meant Elliot being pressed into service come what may). And the first half bore a passable resemblance to Thursday night. Walsall had more of the play and showed some good movement, although Fortune and Doherty seemed in control in and around our area. With us struggling to get anything going, the period rather came and went. Wagstaff had an early shot from a good position which went wide, Jackson hit a decent strike but the save was routine. It basically added up to a wasted 45 minutes, a period which encouraged Walsall to believe that they could get something out of the game.
Parkinson had seen enough and at the break Anyinsah and Fry were replaced by Martin and Reid, with Jackson dropping back to full-back. It promised a more creative approach and for a period it seemed as if it might work. Reid clearly worried them, but they'd done their homework, doubled up on him when necessary, and gradually regained the control of midfield they had enjoyed in the first half. Martin initially made a difference through his mobility, but after a while he and Benson just got outmuscled.
The outcome of the game turned on two chances within a minute – and despite our overall performance we could have won the game if we'd taken the first proper chance that came our way. A ball was played through for Benson to run on beyond the defenders. The angle wasn't great, but he only had the keeper to beat. He put the shot wide of the post. I'm a fan of Benson on the grounds that he's a goalscorer and should be judged on that rather than his hold-up play, which hasn't been great so far. But the miss proved costly. The ball went up the other end, their right-winger got in a decent cross to the far post which was nodded back to their guy running in to score.
That was the cue for Sodje to replace a disappointing Wagstaff, who as on Thursday night failed to provide the basics of a winger's job. His goals have been a big bonus, but neither against Luton nor today did he give the impression of being able to beat his man, make a telling delivery, or create space. Martin moved wide right and Sodje's greater physical threat held out the promise that we could still get something out of the game. However, as play became increasingly stretched nearly all the decent chances were created by Walsall, who might easily have scored a couple more. Elliot saved well in a one-on-one after their guy had waltzed through, other chances went begging. There was a last-gasp opportunity which fell to Benson, but when the ball dropped to him in the box he tried to lay if off instead of shooting.
In the programme, one of the Walsall commentators remarked that "if the Saddlers are to get anything today, they will need veteran keeper Jimmy Walker to be on top form". How wrong can you be? He had to make one basic save in the entire game. Not good enough; even in the final desperate minutes there was no great sense of urgency. It's for Parkinson to assess whether certain players are tired and whether those in the wings provide a better option. Nobody expects champagne football every game, but the past couple of weeks suggest to me that we aren't as good as some might have started to think. Time for another response because today was a setback in every sense of the word.
Player Ratings:
Elliot: 8/10. His kicking clear, especially in the first half, was poor, but I don't know if that can be put down to whether he was truly fit. No chance with the goal, couple of good saves after we'd gone behind.
Francis: 6/10. Distribution wasn't great, but again I'm inclined to blame those in front of him and others for that.
Fry: 6/10. Like Francis, could have got forward more but was only around for the first half. He's done nothing much wrong, but there has to be a case for Jackson dropping back to allow in Martin or Reid, especially for home games.
Fortune: 7/10. I thought at least before the defensive side of our game went awol towards the end he had a good game. Commanding in the air and seldom troubled.
Doherty: 7/10. Much better today than in the rather shocking first half against Luton. A couple of excellent interventions from crosses and generally assured. Today wasn't about defensive lapses for most of the game.
Jackson: 5/10. Seldom featured as an attacking threat in the first half, although he had one decent shot. With Wagstaff not finding space, our threat down the flanks was muted.
Semedo: 5/10. Put in the expected harrying and tackling when we didn't have the ball, but this was a game where we failed to exert any control of midfield and I can't remember him doing anything in possession.
Racon: 4/10. Disappointing game as he was generally crowded out and the game passed him by. I don't know if he's tired, but he looked it today.
Wagstaff: 4/10. Perhaps we've become over-reliant on the goals coming from him and Jackson and they're viewed from that perspective rather than their contributions as wide men. Today he was completely contained by their defence and too often wasn't there out wide to make space.
Anyinsah: 5/10. Some effective running in the first half and had to work on scraps, but looked rusty and I doubt whether their defenders will have an easier first half all season when against him and Benson.
Benson: 4/10. He was poor against Luton and poor again today. Missed the chance that could have won us the game and he has to be judged as a goalscorer.
Subs: Martin (5/10 – Added more movement when he came on, but also struggled against a well-organised defence); Reid (5/10 – Much the same as Martin; the fans expect a lot from him when he comes on and today, after early promise, he was contained); Sodje (6/10 – Did at least unsettle them in a way that hadn't happened before he came on).
New Owners, Second, Time For Fans To Raise The Game?
No World Cup then, but the news that Richard Murray has accepted "an indicative and legally binding offer" for Baton 2010 from an "investor group" headed by Peter Varney is far more important – although as others have already commented there's not a lot to be said at this stage. As usual, I have no inside information and nothing to go on other than the short statement released.
In principle it's welcome news in that Varney is of course no stranger (and his knowledge of the club must indicate that the chances of the deal folding are slim), we have confidence in Murray's pledge only to pass on the club to suitable new owners, the timing of the deal (expected to close before Christmas) holds out the possibility of activity in the transfer window, and any new owners would have to be aware that continued funding will be required, whether or not we return to the Championship. But as yet we have no idea how deep are the pockets of the new people or just what their plans are. Hopefully that will all make for a good Xmas prezzie when such information is made available. Torres may be having a tough time, but I think he could still do a job for us.
Consequently there has to be potential upside. Barring a lousy December, new owners will come in with the team in a league position we would have grabbed with both hands at the start of the season. For that, despite the horrors of Brighton, Parkinson and the players deserve credit, even if the division this season seems a good deal poorer in quality than previously. We all remember Curbs bringing in Mills and Youds to give us fresh impetus and a couple of additions this time around – in addition to securing new contracts for Racon and Semedo - could hopefully have the same effect. Downside risks? You can't rule out that the new guys don't like Parkinson and that a change would cause at least short-term disruption. I hope I'm justified in ruling out the nightmare scenario of renewed talk of finding a new ground (I can't remember Varney's position on that one). To me these would amount to unwanted distractions when the stage is set for a real promotion push. And again it's reasonable to suppose that new investors know that all future development hinges on promotion.
I've no insight into exactly why Murray is selling up, whether it's for commercial or personal reasons. But I do remember my state of mind when selling a company I'd created: once the decision to sell is made there's really no going back, and it would seem that Murray made that decision some time ago. I've been spending a little time recently converting numerous Charlton videos to DVDs and I must admit it's had a strange effect. A concentrated reminder of the Leeds play-off, the Chelsea away game, the Battle For The Valley, the Greatest Game, and the Premiership years left me with two thoughts. First, it probably will never be that good again, period. Second, these matches/seasons/events are history and it's up to a new generation to forge new experiences. Might Murray have similar thoughts? I'll always be a Charlton fan to my bones, but like any relationship there has to be renewal every now and then. If it isn't there any more, it's time to move on; if it is, make it work.
Second in the league, prospective new owners - now its promotion or if not bust a fifth successive season of failure. That leaves what us, the fans, can do. It's going to be difficult now not to drift into grumpy old man territory (and to avoid going over well-trodden ground), but I'll try to work against my nature. After all, no sooner has Killer in his programme notes commented that us Charlton fans "are pretty damn good from what I can make out" than a lifelong fan has to be taken to hospital after some loser in the crowd threw a coin and a cup tie produces a paltry crowd. On the key issues – behaviour and pressuring/encouraging the team - are we good or are we bad?
On the coin-throwing, of course I hope the person is identified and held to account. But I hope even more the guy responsible has the character to come forward voluntarily (which of course begs the question whether someone who feels able to throw a coin in the manner assumed has any character or courage). It might be asking for the moon, but if the person did come forward, offered some explanation and apology, and did his/her best to make it up to the lady who was injured, I hope the club would take that into account before considering action. We've all done very stupid things, sometimes things which had consequences we would never have wanted, which we regret. But unless and until the person does come forward (and I'm not aware of anything to date) you have to assume he/she is the kind of moron for whom we should have nothing but contempt.
So, we ain't perfect to begin with. But that was never on the cards. When you're doing the video conversion for highlights of the Cup replay against Spurs in 1985 and hear monkey chants from the East Terrace you get a sad reminder of how things used to be. We do like to think we're pretty good in general on the behaviour front. We do after all have the benchmark just down the road (no, I don't wish to tar all Spanners with the same brush or decry that club's efforts to clean up their supporters act, especially as some are if not friends periodically required – for fixing the boiler etc; I don't want to get fitted up in any way other than outlined in the manual). But there's never room for complacency.
On support of/pressure on the team, we have to do better from now on. I don't mean in terms of attendance; these are hard times. But to delve from the archives again the noise generated by 8,000-odd for the first game back at The Valley and that truly iconic moment of Sasha arms aloft and a sea of baying fans in the background after Newton scored against Ipswich have to be our own benchmarks. Parkinson and the players are obliged to comment favourably on the level of support during games (and of course sometimes it's merited, especially at away games). But let's take it to another level and really get behind them.
Are we, collectively, capable of this? I was struck during a recent game by a boy, who might have been about 10, a couple of rows behind me. I didn't hear him sing or cheer once, but with monotonous regularity there were shouts of 'mark up' or 'pass', 'defend'. Aside from the absurdity of any of us passing on useful advice to professional footballers, and allowing for the fact that we're all guilty of not being able to keep our gobs shut and of offering up comments that might at best travel a few yards, just what is the mentality behind feeling that it's acceptable to moan and carp and offer up nothing in return? My dictionary definition of 'supporter' is "one who or that which supports or maintains; defender, partisan". Being partisan and supportive, without this spilling over to unacceptable behaviour, is what it's about. Maybe it is a generational thing, with everyone believing their entitled to their opinion (yes, pot, kettle, black etc); if I need brain surgery I'd prefer to rely on a brain surgeon. But perhaps we've lost sight of supporting in the true sense being in our own best interests. I've never come away miserable from a Charlton victory and if increasing the chances of winning involves being partisan, at least during the game, amen to that.

Q: how to migrate all pip2 packages to pip3 not having anymore pip2 I recently updated my packages on a macOS High Sierra using brew update && brew upgrade in where now python and pip are symlinks to python3, pip3. From brew info python

Unversioned symlinks python, python-config, pip etc. pointing to python3,
  python3-config, pip3 etc., respectively, have been installed.

I tend to install all my packages within my $HOME directory by using: pip install --user <package>, so my first instinct to reinstall the packages was to do a pip freeze to get the list of packages and then just try to install them using pip3 but after the upgrade I notice I don't have pip2 anymore.
Is there a way without having to install python2, to list user instaled packages, something like pip freeze so that later I could just reinstall them using pip (now pip3)?, (I still have the $HOME/Library/Python/2.7 directory with all its contents)

A: You may have a folder /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages with your old packages... In such a case you can list the installed packages with ls

Медиа (, от  'посредник') — обширное понятие, включающее в себя средства коммуникации, способы передачи информации, а также образовываемую ими среду (медиапространство).

Определение
Media — ключевой термин Торонтской школы теории коммуникаций. Это форма множественного числа, образованная от латинского medium, переводимое как «средний» или «посредник».

В настоящее время средства коммуникации — обширное понятие, которое включает в себя всю совокупность технологических средств и приёмов коммуникации, служащих для передачи конкретному потребителю информационного сообщения в том или ином виде: текст, музыка, изображение.

Что касается внедренного в русский язык термина «медиа» — а для этого понадобились соответствующие финансовые средства и политическое влияние — о чем говорит появление в российских университетах кафедр, в названии которых фигурирует это слово, — то он чаще является частью таких новообразований, как медиатекст, массмедиа, медиапространство, медиакомпетентность, медиаданные, медиасообщение, медиазависимость, новые медиа, альтернативные медиа, социальные медиа и так далее. Вследствие своей изначальной непроясненности они создают для людей, пользующихся ими, трудности понимания предметов, о которых при этом идет речь.

Неудивительно, что люди, плохо знающие английский язык и слабо разбирающиеся в коммуникационной проблематике, зачастую слово «медиа» некритически объединяют в единое целое с такими понятиями, как средства массовой информации, телекоммуникации и пр.

Это видно уже, например, из таких рассуждений:

1. Понятие медиа намного шире каждого из таких терминов или их совокупности. Медиа включает в себя предметы, которые в обычном понимании совершенно не относятся к средствам связи. Одежда, архитектура или колесо также могут быть причислены к медиа.2. Влияние медиа на передаваемое ими сообщение существенно и не менее важно, чем само сообщение. СМИ же рассматривают исключительно как инструмент или канал коммуникации, не влияющий на смысл передаваемого сообщения.

Проблематика
В качестве проблематики теории медиа можно привести цитату Маршалла Маклюэна (сотрудник Торонтского университета) из его интервью.

Подход к изучению окружающего мира должен быть достаточно гибким и адаптивным, чтобы он мог объять саму матрицу окружающего мира, которая находится в постоянном движении. Я считаю себя учёным-универсалом, а не узким специалистом, который вцепился в крохотный клочок науки, объявил его своим интеллектуальным угодьем и не видит ничего другого вокруг. Моя работа, по сути — глубокий анализ — обычная практика для большинства современных дисциплин от психиатрии до металлургии и структурного анализа. Эффективное изучение средств массовой коммуникации занимается не только содержанием, но и самими средствами, а также культурным контекстом, в котором эти средства оперируют. Чтобы обнаружить принципы действия и главные силовые линии какого-либо феномена, необходимо наблюдать его со стороны. В моих исследованиях нет ничего радикального или сенсационного, просто почему-то до меня никому не приходило в голову этим заняться. За последние 3500 лет существования западной цивилизации влияние средств массовой информации — будь то речь, письмо, печать, фотография, радиовещание или телевидение, — систематически недооценивалось исследователями социума. Даже в наше время электронной революции учёные не проявляют намерения к пересмотрению этой по-страусиному невежественной точки зрения.
Подход М. Маклуэна, до сих пор с трудом пробивающий себе дорогу, сам он выразил ставшим знаменитым высказыванием «The medium is the message», что можно перевести как «средство коммуникации есть сообщение».

История
В числе основоположников развития концепции «медиа» (артефактов как средств коммуникации) выделяют сотрудников Торонтского университета Гарольда Инниса и Маршалла Маклуэна. М. Маклуэн уделял большое внимание изучению культурологических, психологических и физиологических результатов воздействия средств коммуникации, в то время как Иннис занимался его социально-экономическими, культурными и материальными последствиями.

Предметное окружение человека и создаваемое им пространство исследуется в качестве средств коммуникации, по крайней мере, с 1960-х годов (отметим работы Маршалла Маклуэна и других представителей экологии средств коммуникации). В этой связи обычно речь идет об электронно-инфокоммуникационном пространстве.

Видным исследователем данного подхода является Нил Постман. В своей работе «Развлекаясь до смерти» автор рассматривает все возрастающее «развлекательное» влияние, которое медиа оказывают на транслируемую информацию. Автор делает выводы, что медиа ставят на первое место удовлетворение потребности в досуге и развлечениях, отодвигая качество информации на задний план. Согласно книге, образ человека или предмета в медиа не менее значим, чем сама реальность. По его словам, из-за развития технологий на данном этапе даже избиратели уделяют большее внимание образу политика, а не его фактической деятельности.

В рамках системно-деятельного подхода «медиапространство» понимается как продукт двух сред — культурной и социальной, выполняя свою роль как в обеспечении равновесия и внутреннего гомеостазиса системы, так и в её преодолении.

Все авторы придавали большое значение воздействию артефактов как средств коммуникации. Они воспринимали его как фактор, формирующий у человека представления об окружающем мире и о самом себе. С изменением доминирующего типа коммуникации общество в целом меняется коренным образом. Поворотными моментами в истории развития средств коммуникации стали создание печатного станка (европейского способа книгопечатания) И. Гутенбергом и электрического телеграфа, положившего начало электронным средствам связи.

Критика
Нил Постман отмечал, что высокий авторитет М. Маклуэна препятствуют критике его идей и оказывают серьезное влияние на то, как эти идеи воспринимаются в обществе. По его мнению, «Законы медиа: новая наука» («Laws of Media: The New Science») стала лучшей книгой М. Маклуэна, так как в ней достаточно четко прописана доказательная база.

Среди критиков М. Маклуэна были Д. Кэрри, С. Финкельстайн, Д. Миллер, они упрекали автора за склонность к техническому детерминизму и повторение чужих идей, что, в свою очередь, свидетельствует о непонимании ими сути маклуэновского подхода.

Работы предшественников Маршалла Маклуэна, в частности Гарольда Инниса, были хорошо восприняты критиками. Но, хотя их вклад был высоко оценен, сами идеи не получили столь же широкого распространения.

I've tried memorex (+R, -R, +RW), fujifilm (+R), sony (+R, -R) and tdk (+R, +RW) disks using the pioneer 106D and all but the Fujifilm have worked great. Fujifilm works best for data but it's crap for movies (at least in my experience). The best so far for performance, price and consistency is memorex.
Media text is 4.7 GB DVD+R 4x.
"Ulead DVD Movie Factory", "DVD lab" and "Copy to DVD", "DVDXCOPY XPRESS" (Clone DVD doesn't appear to consistently work with this drive in my experience). I've found that nero only works half the time with the drive and/or media. Although the drive can burn at 4x, I find that this is only a good idea when burning data, you are more likely to get coasters with movies unless you burn at 2.4x or set it at "max" and let it determine the max speed. Although, I generally use my computer while burning DVDs so you may experience better results with 4x if the computer is left alone or you have a 2+ ghz cpu (mine is only a 1ghz).
Burnt with NEC ND-1300A at 4x using firmware 1.05.
