Q: Can the machine readable files for integrated circuits be verified by the manufacturer design team? My question is simple if you take the chip design files (blue print files for the fabrication process) which are used by the fabrication process that the design engineer(s) have completed the files which contain GDSII machine readable commands can these files be verified by the design group(s) to be authentic and exactly and identical to one being used by the fabrication or manufacturing facilities ? Is there some computer generated test and verification application that the engineers who designed the blue prints for the fab facilities can use to verify that the machine readable files have not been tampered with or altered at and by the factories ?

A: Can you check if a file is the same over time and location?
Yes. It's called check-sum.
Can you use the instruction format in the files to check?
If the format is deterministic, of course you can. Just generate the instructions again and check if they are the same.
Do you want to make your own tools for that?
Sure as hell hope not. MD5 is a file-to-file check-sum that is very popular and works on anything, with a pretty high confidence in every bit being the exact same. There are many more. You can even just use a Version Management tool's diff view to compare files and their content and see WHAT changed exactly. An example of a decent diff engine without needing version management suites (but why not get one anyway?) would be WinMerge for Windows.

I'm always really excited to create a new recipe for you and I've been dreaming about creating this dairy free salted caramel cheesecake for some time. I think it might have come to me in a dream and I just knew I had to get it up on the blog so your family could enjoy it too this festive season. Not only is it delicious, it's really quick and easy to make, especially if you use purchased gluten free biscuits.
I did have a few goes at this recipe to get it just right and did start without gelatin. It tasted every bit as good but was quite soft. I popped it in the freezer for half an hour before serving which firmed it up a bit so if you are vegan or can't use gelatin you could also do that, or you could experiment with agar.
You could also just use the Nature's Charm Coconut Salted Caramel Sauce to start with which I did initially but I only had one jar so I needed to go with just the caramel for further attempts. We found it a little sweet using the whole 400g jar of caramel and 300g seemed about right for us so I suggest you taste it and alter the sweetness to suit your family. You could also check the saltiness too and add a little more or less if you want to.
I did find that a little of the mixture leaked out of my springform pan so you might like to pop a plate under it so it doesn't spill in the fridge. I recommend you use a good quality springform pan to stop this happening.

Q: Is there a way to dispatch an action on Component Mount? I'm using Firebase for user authentication and I want to use the onAuthStateChanged() to make a user persist even after refreshing the browser. I'm also using redux-sagas to handle async operations.
Index.jsx file:
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import { Provider } from 'react-redux';
import './index.css';
import './App.scss';
import store from './store';
import App from './App';
import * as serviceWorker from './serviceWorker';

ReactDOM.render(<Provider store={store}><App /></Provider>, document.getElementById('root'));
serviceWorker.unregister();

App.jsx:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { Route, BrowserRouter as Router, Switch } from 'react-router-dom';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import Navbar from './components/navbar';
import routes from './routes';
import { actionTypes } from './components/signin/actionTypes';

const { VERIFY_REQUEST } = actionTypes;

const mapDispatchToProps = {
    VERIFY_REQUEST,
};

class App extends Component {

    render() {
        return (
            <Router>
                <Navbar />
                <Switch>
                    {routes.map(route => (
                        <Route
                            key={route.path}
                            path={route.path}
                            exact={route.exact}
                            component={route.component}
                        />
                    ))}
                </Switch>
            </Router>
        );
    }
}

export default connect(null, mapDispatchToProps)(App);

My sagas generator function binded to the action type:
function onAuthState() {
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        loginToFirebase.auth().onAuthStateChanged(user => {
            if (user) {
                console.log(user);
                resolve(user);
            } else {
                reject(new Error('Ops!'));
            }
        });
    });
}

function* verifyUserAuth() {
    try {
        const LOGIN_API_URL = process.env.REACT_APP_USER_AUTH_API;
        const { user } = yield onAuthState();
        console.log(user);
        const userInfo = { userAuth: user, userType: 'user' };
        const config = { headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' } };
        const body = JSON.stringify(userInfo);
        const response = yield axios.post(LOGIN_API_URL, body, config);
        if (response.status === 200) {
            const { data: { info } } = response.data;
            yield put({ payload: info, type: VERIFY_SUCCESS });
        } else yield put(loginError(response.status));
    } catch (error) {
        yield put(loginError(error));
    }
}

export default function* watchUserLoginAction() {
    yield takeEvery(VERIFY_REQUEST, verifyUserAuth);
}

Everytime I check my redux tools, I don't see the action being fired on component mount.

A: You can use the componentDidMount lifecycle method whenever you want to do something after the component is mounted. Modify your mapDispatchToProps
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => {
         return {
            verifyRequest: () => { dispatch( {type : VERIFY_REQUEST} ) }
          };
    };

and then call verifyRequest from componentDidMount
componentDidMount = () =>{
     this.props.verifyRequest()
}

Also, it is better to create action creators instead of directly dispatching the action, like so
export const verifyRequestAction = () => {
    return {
        type: VERIFY_REQUEST
    }
}

and then
const mapDispatchToProps = dispatch => {
         return {
            verifyRequest: () => { dispatch(verifyRequestAction()}
          };
    };

The Absolute Worst Bottled Water Brand You Can Buy
Jessie Quinn
Just because water is bottled doesn't mean it's better for you. In fact, some bottled waters are essentially the same as (or worse than) tap water and others are almost as bad as soda — yikes! So, how do you know if the bottled water you're drinking is good for you? The pH level is a great place to start.
When it comes down to it, any water with a pH level of less than 7.0 is considered acidic, or harmful to the body. However, some of the most popular brands have a pH level of less than 5.5 — meaning it can dissolve tooth enamel, aka the hardest substance in the body … If it can do that to your teeth, imagine what it can do to the rest of your body!
On top of that, a study done by the American Dental Hygienists' Association, says many bottled water brands have a more acidic pH than what is actually listed, making it hard to know if a bottled water brand falls between a more neutral to safe level of 7.0 to 9.0. Unfortunately for these bottled water brands, the information can be found on Alkaline Water Plus.
We take a look at the worst bottled water brand (page 10) and the best bottled water brand (page 15) you can buy, according to pH level, ahead.
10. SmartWater
Not the smartest choice. | Mike Windle/Getty Images for smartwater
As far as bottled water is concerned, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has a standard of between 6.5 to 8.5. And, although SmartWater technically meets this standard, it still falls on the acidic side of the spectrum. Not to mention: It uses 48% more plastic than competing brands. No thanks!
Next: Many believe this is one of the best bottled water brands, but pH tests show it's more acidic.
9. Deer Park
Deer Park is a good option, but not the best. | Deer Park Natural Spring Water via Instagram
Deer Park is believed to be one of the best bottled water brands on the market. However, with a pH level of 6.3, it is considered more acidic. There are better brands out there!
Next: This popular Midwest water says it has a higher pH level than it actually does.
8. Ice Mountain
Here's what you need to know about Ice Mountain water. | Ice Mountain Spring Water via Instagram
According to Ice Mountain's website, the popular Midwestern bottled water has a pH level of between 6.8 and 8.1. But, Alkaline Water Plus' test results show a 6.0 pH level.
Next: Another popular bottled water brand with a pH of 6.0.
7. Crystal Geyser
Think twice when purchasing your water bottle supply. | T.a.c_clothing_86 via Instagram
Another bottled water brand to watch out for? Crystal Geyser. The popular brand tested at a lower pH level than the EPA's standard.
Next: This luxury brand is not as good as you think.
6. Voss
The fancy bottle doesn't make up for what it lacks in purity. | VOSS Water via Instagram
Voss may have a luxury appeal, but it certainly doesn't appeal to the EPA's standards. Tested at a 6.0, the pricey bottled water is not as pure as you'd think.
Next: This popular East Coast bottled water brand is worse than the tap water in NYC.
5. Poland Spring
Poland Spring isn't the best brand out there. | Poland Spring Water via Instagram
Not all tap water is created equal. Case in point: New York City tap water has a natural pH of 7.2. Sadly it's bottled water counterpart — Poland Springs — is not as outstanding. The popular East Coast water is just 0.3 points away from having the power to dissolve tooth enamel.
Next: Sparkling water fans will be sad to learn that this popular fizzy water can cause more harm than good.
4. Perrier
Reach for a different bottle of water. | Perrier Water via Instagram
Sadly sparkling water brand, Perrier is not as good as you may have thought. With a 5.5 pH level, the popular fizzy drink has the ability to dissolve tooth enamel and cause harm to the body.
Next: Number three is even worse!
3. Function
This water has a very low pH balance. | Baiajaku/iStock/Getty Images
Love Function's vapor distilled and electrolyte water? You may want to reconsider purchasing. Albeit USDA Organic, the bottled water has a dangerously low pH balance of 5.0.
Next: Can you believe this is the only bottled water you can buy at Disneyland?
2. Dasani
This popular brand of water isn't the best. | Dasani Water via Instagram
Believe it or not, Dasani is one of the worst bottled water brands you can buy. Manufactured by Coca-Cola, the popular bottled water has a pH level of 4.5.
Next: The absolute worst bottled water brand you can buy.
1. Penta
Don't even think about drinking this water. | Penta Water via Instagram
The number one worst bottled water brand you can buy? Penta. With a pH level of 4.0, you might as well drink soda!
Next: The top five best bottled water brands you can buy.
5. Evian
This water is the best bet. | Evian Water via Instagram
When it comes to a bottled water brand you can trust, you'll something with a pH of at least 7.0 and at most 9.0. And although Evian falls at the starting line, it's 7.0 pH level puts it at a level that is considered pure.
Next: Florida's favorite bottled water is one of the bests out there.
4. Zephyrhills
This water is the best of the best. | Zephyrhills Spring Water via Instagram
Floridian bottled water brand, Zephyrhills is one of the best on the market. With a pH balance of 7.5, the bottled water falls right in line with the EPA's standard and is considered more alkaline.
Next: Many believe this is the best bottled water brand, but it's actually tied with Zephyrhills for third place.
3. Fiji
Not just a pretty bottle. | Fiji Water via Instagram
Another bottled water brand with a 7.5 pH level? Fiji water. Believed to be one of the bests out there, Fiji water veers towards the alkaline side of the spectrum and tastes as pure as it's advertisements make it seem.
Next: The second best bottled water brand you can buy.
2. Evamor
Not all waters are the same. | M-imagephotography/iStock/Getty Images
Number two on the list? Evamor water. The natural alkaline artesian water has a pH balance of 8.0 and is considered one of the best on the market.
Next: The best bottled water brand you can buy.
1. Essentia
Sip as much as you want. | Essentia Water via Instagram
The best bottled water brand you can buy? Essentia. With a pH balance of 9.0, the ionized alkaline water can rehydrate the body and quench thirst with every sip.

Science Mystery
History mystery: Heimdall – God of Sky and Light
According to Norse mythology, Heimdall was a god who possessed the resounding horn, owned a horse with golden mane and had golden teeth. He was known by many names as Rig, Hallinskioi, Gullintanni and Vindler or Vindhler. Heimdall was the guardian of the gods who was the son of nine mothers, the daughters of the Giant Geirrendour also known as God Aegir, or the nine Wave Sisters. He was the whitest of all gods and was considered to be the god of sky and light since he was born at the dawn of the world and was raised by seawater, the force of the earth and the blood of a boar.
His dwelling was in the Cliffs of Paradise, Himinbjorg and his horse was named Gulltop. Being a guardian of Gods, he would monitor the Rainbow Bridge Bifrost which was the only entrance to Asgard. His had to serve as a watchman for the gods against the giant Jotun with his strong and mighty horns known as Gjjallar along with his rooster Gullinkambi as well as other threats against the Asgardian. Nothing escaped him and needing less sleep than a bird he was capable of seeing through the night as in the day, more than a hundred miles away and his hearing was such that no sound could escape him so much so that he could even hear the grass grow or the wool of sheep curl, in other words he had an excellent sense of hearing.
Heimdall is compared to the tree of the universe standing at the top above the highest rainbow in the sky. At Ragnorak, he would be the first to draw the attention of the gods to warn them and the last to die in a duel with Loki. He would stand on the boundary of the human and the divine world with some accounts of the personification of the world tree Yggdrasil. When he was young he lived among men giving them gifts of culture. He was considered to be one of the first god which dates back to the earliest Indo European pantheons and it was Heimdall, not Odin who had fathered three classes of mankind, - the peasants, serfs and the warriors.
When the sound of the horn Gjallar was heard throughout the nine worlds, the Aesir would assemble with the knowledge of the prophecies that they were approaching their doomsday and resigning to their fate they prepared themselves to meet their enemies of the gods who gathered at the plain called Vigrior. This was the Apocalyptic Battle of Ragnorok where Heimdall was the one to take Loki down though he too would perish from his wounds where the world would be engulfed in flames and thereafter sink into the sea. In the final battle with Loki, the Bifrost, the magical rainbow bridge which was a portal between Asgard and the human world got destroyed and was later rebuilt but the fighters Asgards got separated from the rest of the universe and remained hidden.

I was alone I took a ride I didn't know what I would find  there.
Another road where maybe I can see another kind of mind there.
Ooh   then I suddenly see you.
Every  single  day  of  my life?
You didn't run you didn't lie you knew I wanted just to hold you.
And had you gone you knew in time we meet again for I adore you.
Say we'll be   together every day.
What can I do? What can I be when I'm with you I wanna stay there.
Then I suddenly see you.


Below is a image of what I'm trying to do. Can this be done in XCART?
I need to have one button on static content page, by clicking on it a few specific items that should be added to the cart and user redirected to cart.
Added products are known and unchanging, example is product_id=37,38 and 39.
how can I make it easier in X-Cart 5.2?
Unfortunately, we don't have a ready-made solution for it, but we can do it specially for you. I've sent a private message to you with all details.
Be outstanding! E-mail us at sales@x-cart.com.
I am try to add product page (two products) combine and at time two product add cart page.
if you anybody knows ideas and findout solution please help me.
It would be nice if anyone have the solution and share the code. In X-Cart 4, we can easily pass the values in URL with mode=add" and it does the job.
\XLite\Controller\Customer\Cart::doActionAdd() is the method that handles clicking on "Add To Card" button.
You are to create a custom module that will add your own "action" method and implement a similar logic for a bunch of products.


The Japanese TV show Oha Suta has revealed a new trailer of the 20th Pokémon movie, 「劇場版ポケットモンスター キミにきめた!」 Pocket Monsters the Movie: I Choose You!. The trailer shows two different logos for the movie and several scenes remade from EP001 with the addition Ho-Oh dropping a Rainbow Wing down to Ash after which he says to Pikachu "Someday, let's go and meet that Pokémon, together!". The official Japanese Pokémon YouTube channel and the official movie website have since updated with this new trailer from Oha Suta, a second teaser trailer and new artwork. The logos, artwork and trailers can be seen in the gallery below.

We had a great time for my husband's 50th birthday. The staff were excellent, friendly and welcoming. The food was very good and the castle itself was so clean, tidy and warm. It's a lot bigger then it looks, and the history of the castle is brilliant. The room was beautiful and the bed was one of the best I have slept in. Thank you Celtic Castles, you have done it again for us!
Sample some of the finest cuisine to be experienced in the Highlands in the castle's stunning dining room. The Turrets Restaurant serves only the best produce, taken from the Highland's abundant seas, lochs, rivers and farmland, and freshly prepared into mouth-watering dishes. Dinner is experienced in the castle's dining room, with elegant candlesticks, individually-designed chairs and subtle lighting.
The castle's excellent wine cellar affords you a superb choice of wines from around the world and the attentive and knowledgeable staff will treat you as though you were the Laird.
After dinner, guests can head to the Green Lady Bar or the reception lounge (where there is often a roaring log fire) to round off the evening with a fine Scottish malt. It's the perfect way to end the day.
Resident Ghost
Perhaps the most famous ghost of Tulloch Castle is that of The Green Lady – an elegant lady who appears in a long silk dress. It's thought that The Green Lady might actually be Elizabeth Davidson, the daughter of a former owner. The Green Lady is said to be a very sad ghost and when guests spot her, they have a feeling of overwhelming sorrow. If you're lucky enough to hear her speak, you might just catch her whispering "Why?" over and over.
Tulloch Castle was the historic home of Clan Davidson.
The last of the direct line of Davidsons at Tulloch was a Duncan Davidson, who died in 1917. His daughter inherited Tulloch Castle, and her son, Colonel Angus Vickers, of Vickers Aircraft, was the last owner of Tulloch lands. In 1920 the castle, which was falling badly into disrepair, was completely renovated by Mr and Mrs Vickers.
More recently, the Vickers family gave the Tulloch lands to the Highland Regional Council. The castle served intermittently as a dormitory for the Dingwall Academy before being converted to its present use as a hotel.
There is a secret tunnel from the basement of Tulloch Castle across town to the ancient Dingwall Castle. It is now too dangerous to use, as most of it has caved in, and so it was abandoned many years ago. However, there is an air-vent in the middle of the front lawn of Tulloch, which you can look down today and through which you can dimly perceive this tunnel.
A lovely castle. The first we ever stayed in. Staff were so delightful. Scottish people were so kind, lovely and most helpful. A local actually escorted us to the castle!
There are three championship golf courses a short drive away from the Tulloch Castle, plus a further 50 courses in the surrounding area. Tee-times can be reserved on guests' behalf by the castle staff.
If golf is not on the agenda, there are plenty of other things to do in and around the area. There's the chance to spot a pod of dolphins on the Moray or take in some history at Cawdor. Cairngorms National Park is also a stunning place to explore, with walks, treks and plenty of wildlife to look out for.

How Do You Know Asbestos May Be in Your Leesburg, VA Home Environment?
All over the world, there are millions of buildings, pipes, homes, offices, cargo ships, and quaint local shops which secret asbestos. How do you know asbestos may be in your Leesburg, VA home environment?
When found, asbestos is best left alone. If the asbestos has deteriorated, it's time to contact a qualified asbestos testing company. Asbestos is a material that is federally regulated and professional removal using engineering controls is strongly recommended.
Environmental services for indoor air quality and asbestos testing in Leesburg, VA.
Today we know the dangers asbestos can have if found in your Leesburg, VA house. Asbestos has been shown in scientific studies to cause cancer and scarring of the lung. Often asbestos-related conditions result from repeated occupational exposure. Proper asbestos testing and safe removal of asbestos (that shows signs of friability leading to airborne particles) is difficult and requires certified, licensed asbestos removal professionals.
The Environmental Protection Agency advises homeowners to find an asbestos company certified in asbestos testing and asbestos removal, specifically how to safely remove asbestos from contaminated structures. For example, the contaminated space will be sealed with plastic sheets while work is being done. And it is essential to turn off the HVAC system to prevent movement of contaminated air. The area remains secure from any entry except certified asbestos professionals until the project is complete.
Angie's List recommends you "hire contractors who are licensed and/or certified to handle household toxins and can prove their qualifications for your specific need" in the Leesburg, VA area. Why would you call a professional asbestos removal company? Because your health and your safety depend on it. Discuss the dangers posed by toxic asbestos. Get a containment plan. Get two or three estimates and a written guarantee for the final scope of work. Make sure to check references, Virginia licenses, and certifications.
If you know asbestos may be in your environment, do your homework, and have your home inspected by a licensed asbestos testing company to locate and remove the asbestos risk from your Leesburg, VA home.

Film Review: 'Permanent'
'Hung' co-creator Colette Burson jumps on the 1980s nostalgia train with this confessional teen-angst comedy about a hairdo gone horribly awry.

It's hard to decide which era "Permanent" is most nostalgic for: 1982, when writer-director Colette Burson's semiautobiographical coming-of-ager is set, or the turn of the millennium, when movies like "Welcome to the Dollhouse" and "Ghost World" set the template for the kind of twee, adolescent-angst stories that reached their apotheosis a few years later with Fox Searchlight releases "Napoleon Dynamite" and "Little Miss Sunshine." In either case, the movie does neither time period any real favors, being a funny-ish (but never outright funny) portrait of a high school girl whose biggest concern is her hair.
As such, the title "Permanent" refers to the chemical process (or "perm," as the mainstream called it) made enviable by the likes of Meg Ryan, Stevie Nicks and Dolly Parton back when big hair and poodle-like ringlets were all the rage. It also describes the kind of damage that high school renders on teenagers everywhere, who carry the scars of schoolyard taunting and non-inclusion well into their forties — where they can presumably serve as fodder for comedies such as this.
Aurelie (newcomer Kira McLean, who shows potential beyond the vinegar-faced scowl she wears for most of her first starring feature role) spent most of her childhood on a military base, but now that her family has moved to Virginia, she's worried that the rest of her class won't accept her unless she has feathered hair like Farrah Fawcett. Maybe she's right, but it's hard to sympathize with a character whose concerns are so petty and self-absorbed. Aurelie's hair obsession may trigger notes of recognition from others, but mostly, it makes one nostalgic for the time when the biggest problem we could think of was how we looked (a phase that many presumably never grow out of).
Desperate to fit in, Aurelie pesters her parents, dowdy middle-class couple Jeanne (Patricia Arquette) and Jim Dixon (Rainn Wilson in an unsightly toupee), until they agree to pay for a perm. Times being tight, however, they can't afford the $40 it costs to get it done right, so they take her to the local beauty school instead, with predictably disastrous results.
That's a perfectly funny story, and one can imagine Burson cracking up a room by telling it aloud, regaling friends with the detail of how her classmates teased her about her new "afro" on the bus, forcing her to sit beside the school's one black student (Nena Daniels, easily the film's most interesting character), but it's tacky to see reenacted. Those were less enlightened times, and it sometimes takes decades for people to realize just how petty and insensitive they were as adolescents.
Even with the distance of a quarter-century, however, it's not entirely clear that Burson's perspective has shifted: "Permanent" still bears the traces of old grudges (like the way the other kids tease Aurelie for her arbitrarily French name by calling her "oral sex," which must be some variation on what Burson went through for being named "Colette" in the South), and feels a little too tidy in the way everyone suddenly puts aside his or her differences in time for the final group hug.
Though reinforced by amusing period-specific details (mainly the kind of embarrassing sartorial choices designed to trigger feelings of shame and solidarity from others who survived the '80s as well), the film makes an unfortunate gamble: While most of its humor derives from nostalgia for the era of pastel fashions, tube socks and karate self-defense classes, the movie seems geared toward audiences roughly the age of its own protagonist — a tactic that has worked well enough for "Stranger Things" and "It," but suggests that many of the vintage details will be lost on teens, while the character's relative immaturity will make "Permanent" taxing for those who want something more than talent-show contests and awkward first-kiss scenarios from their movies.
Apart from casting (which is just OK here, as Wilson resorts a bit too much to shtick, while Arquette reaches for sincerity), regionally- and period-specific details are the ingredient that make otherwise-interchangeable stories like this appealing. While "Permanent" doesn't come anywhere near Greta Gerwig's "Lady Bird" (or last year's comparably charming "The Edge of Seventeen") in revealing all that is specific and universal in the process by which a young woman comes into her own, it's not without its charms; they just tend to be suffocated by bad wig jokes, distracting wardrobe choices and Craig Wedren's invasively cutesy score. Burson (best known for co-creating the HBO series "Hung") is still finding her voice, but it's one with clear potential. Give it a decade, and she'll look back on "Permanent" with the same cringe-inducing embarrassment she now feels toward the era it depicts, but by then, her storytelling may well have found the perspective this film so desperately lacks.

## About Us
Symmetry Investments is a post startup USD 9+ billion alternative asset management company with around 250 people across multiple time zones and locations.
Our core technology team has been remote-first for some time, and the whole company is following suit, accelerated by the pandemic.
I'm co-CEO and co-COO, responsible amongst other things for technology across the firm and I'm posting this myself. That should give you an idea both about how seriously we take technology and the culture of the firm.
We are five years into a period of transformation from what was initially a fairly standard enterprise finance technology approach to something new that recognises the importance of both the humane and the technical for discretionary portfolio management and for the business of running an alternative investment manager. [Amaury Sechet](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhR4PSExnqk), [Andrei Alexandrescu](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=es6U7WAlKpQ) and [Atila Neves](https://dlang.org/blog/2019/10/15/my-vision-of-ds-future/) have been working with us as long-term consultants and we have many other talented people with lower public profiles.
It's not easy to integrate practitioners who may spend most of their day programming, but are oriented towards solving business problems, with developers who are specialists in programming. To achieve this, we wrote a little functional DSL that's now in production. Type inference of returns and parameters using inequality constraints is in a feature branch and there is plenty more to do on the language itself as well as the ecosystem around it. SIL can compile and call C++, D, and C# at runtime and interoperate with Python and R.What might be a project in itself elsewhere can be just a set of functions in Symmetry Integration Language.
The language is written in D and we have a close involvement with the D Foundation and community, hosting DConf in London. So we are looking for outstanding native code developers who would like to write D as well as people to work with practitioners writing Symmetry Integration Language. Also looking for people to write documentation and work on the build.
It's quite a creative place where we encourage a degree of courage amidst practical constraints, and we are open to doing things a different way if it's commercially sound and in the interests of our investors.
We look for virtues and capabilities over only experience and credentials although those things aren't a disadvantage. Do not let a lack of credentials or qualifications prevent you from applying. We've recently hired experts with C++, Common Lisp, D, Haxe, Haskell, Julia and Perl backgrounds, and are happy to bring them up to speed with the tools we use.
Compensation is currently not quite at Netflix standards but is generous to very generous over time by broad technology industry standards. We recognise and reward technical accomplishment and have a very flat structure - don't be surprised if our founder and Chief Investment Officer starts asking you questions about your work.

Jeff Bezos Just Revealed 1 Thing That Sets Very Smart People Apart From the Rest
You can have all the drive and focus in the world. They mean nothing without this.
By Justin Bariso, Author, EQ Applied@JustinJBariso
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos stopped by the re:MARS conference in Las Vegas last week to share his advice for those who are thinking about starting their own business.
Bezos imparted some great tips, but one statement in particular drew my attention--because it's insightful and gives major food for thought:
"People who are right a lot listen a lot, and they change their mind a lot. People who are right a lot change their mind without a lot of new data. They wake up and reanalyze things and change their mind. If you don't change your mind frequently, you're going to be wrong a lot. People who are right a lot want to disconfirm their fundamental biases."
There's a lot to learn from Bezos's advice, but I'd like to focus on just one sentence:
People who are right a lot listen a lot, and they change their mind a lot.
Think about that for a second. Bezos built one of the most successful companies in the world with unparalleled drive and relentless focus. But as important as those qualities are, they are useless unless they are coupled with one more thing:
The ability to admit when you're wrong.
Why changing your mind is a sign of strength
This isn't the first time Bezos has shared this particular piece of advice.
My Inc. colleague Jessica Stillman reported on an interview with Bezos a few years ago. Asked how he surrounds himself with smart people, Bezos described a different view of "smart" than what many would expect:
"The smartest people are constantly revising their understanding, reconsidering a problem they thought they'd already solved. They're open to new points of view, new information, new ideas, contradictions, and challenges to their own way of thinking."
This is admittedly a very difficult task. As emotional creatures, we get attached to our ideas and opinions. That's not always bad--you need that passion and enthusiasm to motivate yourself, and to persuade others. The problem is that once you're convinced something is true, it can be difficult to let go or to see the other side.
But the fact is, we're all imperfect. We have a limited perspective, complete with blind spots and inherent (unconscious) biases.
Simply put: We're wrong.
But what if you could detach yourself emotionally from your ideas, just long enough to listen objectively to another person? Do that, and you'll increase your ability to course correct--and even change direction--when necessary.
Cultivating this ability makes you more than just a better business person. It also makes you a better romantic partner. A better parent. A better friend.
So, the next time you encounter an idea or opinion that is vastly different from your own, resist the urge to immediately dismiss it.
Instead, force yourself to listen carefully. Then, ask yourself:
Looking at the situation through the other person's eyes, why does their opinion seem right to them?
Why do I feel so strongly about my own opinion? What is it based on?
Has anything changed in the last days, months, or years that would affect my thoughts on this subject?
Putting my personal feelings aside, what can I learn from this alternate perspective?
By taking the time to answer these questions, you may find that you're holding on to an outdated or incomplete understanding. You might see what benefits could result from a different course.
And you just may conclude that you're simply wrong this time, and change your mind.
But even if you don't change your mind, you'll accomplish a lot.
By demonstrating the willingness to look at the situation with a fresh pair of eyes, you display humility. Instead of showing a know-it-all attitude, which drives others away, you cultivate a learn-it-all attitude, which earns you the respect of your peers. This will encourage them to do the same when considering your thoughts and opinions.
That's more than just smart--it's emotionally intelligent.

The Texas Court of Appeals recently found an employer liable for an employee's injuries due to its failure to maintain workers compensation insurance. As a result, the employer was required to pay the injured employee the amount of $310,607.48 for injuries sustained from a forklift accident on the job site.
In JC General Contractors v. Chavez, Teodoro Chavez worked as a laborer on a construction site for J.C. General Contractors in May 2006. Equipment for the site included a forklift with a basket attached that was used to lift workers to higher parts of the structure. On the day of the accident, the construction superintendent told Chavez to get into the basket to be listed up to take measurements. Chavez was unable to secure the basket, which was attached to the forklift by chains, because the superintendent had forgotten the key to the chain locks. While Chavez was wearing a safety harness, it was attached to the basket, not the forklift. When the basket was raised to a height between 10 and 20 feet, it fell forward and as a result, Chavez suffered a broken collarbone, bruised lungs, internal bleeding in his liver, two fractured ribs, a broken wrist that required surgery, a fractured skull, and a traumatic brain injury that resulted in memory loss and other mental issues.
Because J.C. General Contractors did not have workers compensation insurance, Chavez was not barred from filing a lawsuit. At trial, it was established that the forklift was not designed to lift laborers. However, J.C. General Contractors argued that Chavez was responsible for the accident due to his taking cocaine earlier that day. One of his coworkers testified that he saw Chavez snorting cocaine that morning, and that he was acting hyper, jumping up and down in the basket right before it fell. A blood test confirmed that Chavez tested positive for cocaine, and Chavez admitted to using it, but claimed he had done so four days prior. The trial concluded with the jury determining that Chavez's intoxication was not the cause of the injury, but rather the superintendent's misuse of the forklift. The jury awarded $100,000 for physical pain and mental anguish sustained in the past and to be sustained in the future, more than $135,000 for medical care, $50,000 for physical impairment, and $25,000 for lost earning capacity. J.C. General Contractors appealed.
The Texas Court of Appeals rejected arguments that the jury had failed to properly consider the weight of testimony that Chavez had taken cocaine that morning. Instead, it noted that jurors had the right to accept and reject evidence, including deciding that a witness was not credible. The Court of Appeals therefore upheld the jury's findings and its award to Chavez. This case is a nice victory for a worker, as well as a cautionary tale for any employer who goes without workers compensation insurance.

There is a discrepancy between the Aging - 7 Buckets - By Account Report and the balances in GL.
Not all Bills Receivable (BR) Transactions are included.
Those with status Pending Remittance are ok, but those BR's that have been closed in a later period, do not appear on the report, even though they do have a balance in GL as of the report date.


A suite of $100k grants have been awarded to three female-identifying artists, in honour of Italian-born, Australian artist Katthy Cavaliere (1972-2012).
Cavaliere's lifelong project was to pack, store and transport the wreckage of her personal possessions, and transform it into art—a private life made public, where readymade objects acquire an aura of love and trauma, and comprise a portrait of the artist herself.
Suspended Moment is made possible by the Estate of Katthy Cavaliere in partnership with Carriageworks, the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, and Mona.
The winners will present an exhibition in 2020.
They are Frances Barrett (ACCA), Giselle Stanborough (Carriageworks), and Sally Rees here at Mona. Rees will present CRONE: a series of animations, prints, and actions responding to the perceived invisibility of ageing women in society.
