I've been loving Benchmarking lately, but the Framework does this one quirky thing with the first result of a set. Specifically, the first return is always unusually high.

Lately, I've been spending time A/B benchmarking code against refactored versions assuming that both pieces of code pass their respective tests. One thing that always leaves me scratching my head is the way the first returned value of the Benchmark helper is always way higher than all other values. At first, I thought that this was due to some startup overhead in the framework, but I'm not so sure. Here's a test for you to try along with the result I got.

Here's the long-way-around code I played with for experimentation (each line is exactly the same):

php [ Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1] ];

Here's the result:

php [ 36.802083, 1.678583, 1.420791, 1.051042, 1.019792, 1.0015, 1.018708, 1.423625, 1.227666, 1.0715, 1.065666, 1.032791, 0.9855, 1.095708, 1.460583, 1.113666, ]

Weird right?

Here's another quirky example:

php $a = [ Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1] ]; $b = [ Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1], Benchmark::value(fn() => User::factory()->create())[1] ]; [$a,$b];

Result:

php [ [ 30.447542, 1.143333, 1.172375, 1.166459, 1.20575, 1.402584, 1.189042, ], [ 1.45775, 1.071958, 1.050291, 2.011417, 1.458583, 1.110292, 4.568708, ], ]

Azure APIM API is not visible in Logic Apps

I created a consumption-based Logic App and are trying to call an API from API Management Service (Consumption Tier).
However, the OpenAPI I imported from a swagger file in APIM doesn't show up in Logic Apps.


I don't understand what I missed here.

Terminate istio sidecar istio-proxy for a kubernetes job / cronjob

We recently started using istio Istio to establish a service-mesh within out Kubernetes landscape.



We now have the problem that jobs and cronjobs do not terminate and keep running forever if we inject the istio istio-proxy sidecar container into them. The istio-proxy should be injected though to establish proper mTLS connections to the services the job needs to talk to and comply with our security regulations.



I also noticed the open issues within Istio (istio/issues/6324) and kubernetes (kubernetes/issues/25908), but both do not seem to provide a valid solution anytime soon.



At first a pre-stop hook seemed suitable to solve this issue, but there is some confusion about this conecpt itself: kubernetes/issues/55807

lifecycle:
preStop:
exec:
command:
...




Bottomline: Those hooks will not be executed if the the container successfully completed.



There are also some relatively new projects on GitHub trying to solve this with a dedicated controller (which I think is the most preferrable approach), but to our team they do not feel mature enough to put them right away into production:




* k8s-controller-sidecars

* K8S-job-sidecar-terminator







In the meantime, we ourselves ended up with the following workaround that execs into the sidecar and sends a SIGTERM signal, but only if the main container finished successfully:

apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
name: terminate-sidecar-example-service-account
---
kind: Role
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
name: terminate-sidecar-example-role
rules:
- apiGroups: [""]
resources: ["pods"]
verbs: ["get","delete"]
- apiGroups: [""]
resources: ["pods/exec"]
verbs: ["create"]
---
kind: RoleBinding
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:

subjects:
- kind: ServiceAccount
name: terminate-sidecar-example-service-account
roleRef:
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
kind: Role
name: terminate-sidecar-example-role
---
apiVersion: batch/v1beta1
kind: CronJob
metadata:
name: terminate-sidecar-example-cronjob
labels:
app: terminate-sidecar-example
spec:
schedule: "30 2 * * *"
jobTemplate:
metadata:
labels:
app: terminate-sidecar-example
spec:
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: terminate-sidecar-example
annotations:
sidecar.istio.io/inject: "true"
spec:
serviceAccountName: terminate-sidecar-example-service-account
containers:
- name: ****
image: ****
command:
- "/bin/ash"
- "-c"
args:
- node index.js && kubectl exec -n ${POD_NAMESPACE} ${POD_NAME} -c istio-proxy -- bash -c "sleep 5 && /bin/kill -s TERM 1 &"
env:
- name: POD_NAME
valueFrom:
fieldRef:
fieldPath: metadata.name
- name: POD_NAMESPACE
valueFrom:
fieldRef:
fieldPath: metadata.namespace




So, the ultimate question to all of you is: Do you know of any better workaround, solution, controller, ... that would be less hacky / more suitable to terminate the istio-proxy container once the main container finished its work?

Laravel 10.35 Released

---



The Laravel team released v10.35 with a Blade @use directive, a number abbreviation helper, the ability to generate a secret with artisan down, and more. Here is a bit more info about the new features introduced this week:


Add a Blade @use() directive




Simon Hamp contributed a @use() directive to import a PHP class into a Blade template without using raw PHP tags:
{{-- Before --}}
@php
use \App\Enums\WidgetStatusEnum as Status;
@endphp

{{-- After --}}
@use('App\Enums\WidgetStatusEnum', 'Status')
@use('App\Models\Bar')

{{ Status::Foo }}
{{ Bar::first() }}



Abbreviate a number with the Number::abbreviate() method




@jcsoriano contributed a Number::abbreviate() class to the newly added Number Class, which provides a human-readable abbreviated number:
Number::abbreviate(1_000_000); // "1M"
Number::abbreviate(100_001); // "100K"
Number::abbreviate(100_100); // "100K"
Number::abbreviate(99_999); // "100K"
Number::abbreviate(99_499); // "99K"



Add the --with-secret option to the artisan down command




Jacob Daniel Prunkl contributed a --with-secret option to the artisan down command that will generate a secret phrase that can be used to bypass maintenance mode so the user doesn't have to define one themselves:





Add Conditionable trait to the AssertableJson class




Khalil Laleh contributed adding the Conditionable trait to the AssertableJson class, to make it possible to assert based on a given conditional:
// Before
$response->assertJson(function (AssertableJson $json) use ($condition) {
$json->has('data');

if ($condition) {
$json->has('meta');
}

$json->etc();
});

// After
$response
->assertJson(fn (AssertableJson $json) => $json->has('data'))
->when($condition, fn (AssertableJson $json) => $json->has('meta'))
// ...
;

Livewire limitations?

We have been using React for our front-end for some time and are quite comfortable with it. Livewire seems extremely popular, and it would be interesting to try it out, but I’m hesitant about the time it’s going to take to really know if it fits our use-case.

Have you come across limitations when using Livewire with Laravel? If so, what kind? Is it suitable for more than relatively basic interactivity (for example, how would drag n drop be implemented)? submitted by /u/CapnJiggle

CustomGPT expert on Laravel and FilamentPHP

Did anyone feed the latest Laravel docs and preferably docs of FilamentPHP and other highly relevant Laravel packages (Nova, Pest, or even Inertia, Alpine etc) to a custom GPT we could use and prompt? It would sound like a valuable resource.

Or should I just use phind.com or grind the docs myself and build my own CustomGPT (or altnernative using embeddings). I didn’t find much when googling or searching Laravel-news. Lots of articles describe how to integrate OpenAI in your Laravel app, but I need a smart, relevant and up to date AI assistent with knowledge of current docs to speed up development.

Tips appreciated! submitted by /u/mhphilip

Find a value from an array column in a dictionary Pyspark

I have this dataframe in Pyspark:
data = [("definitely somewhere",), ("Las Vegas",), ("其他",), (None,), ("",), ("Pucela Madrid Langreo, España",), ("Trenches, With Egbon Adugbo",)]
df = spark.createDataFrame(data, ["address"])
city_country = {
'las vegas': 'US',
'lagos': 'NG',
'España': 'ES'
}
cities_name_to_code = spark.sparkContext.broadcast(city_country )
df_with_codes = df.withColumn('cities_array', F.lower(F.col('address'))) \
.withColumn('cities_array', F.split(F.col('cities_array'), ', '))



I want to find in cities_array all the keys from cities_name_to_code for each element (get an array of values).
The problem is that I don't want to use UDF.

Changing prefix build for static asset in Nextjs

I just wonder if we can configure name of prefix asset in nextjs 13


when we running build of next application it will produce new folder into project with name "out" folder and there will be several folder inside there.


When we using from next/image it will build into /_next/static/media/myimage.svg


Is it possible to us, maybe in config.next.json to change all image path to something else like /_next/static/asset/myimage.svg or /_next/images/myimage.svg


I just wonder if we can change build prefix in nextjs


Thank you

Are worker gems like Sidekiq still needed for a basic Rails application

Starting from Rails 7.1, Puma will automatically spawn x worker threads where x is the amount of available processors.


This brings up the question on how to handle workers in a simple dockerized Rails production app.


In the case of a simple Rails application that occasionally sends some mails asynchronously and periodically cleans up a few ActiveRecord Blobs, are worker Gems like Sidekiq still needed? Or is the default configuration of Puma enough to get the job done?

php variable value acts like zero

As I was working on a project I had an error which I couldn't understand why it is happening. On my code, I read a string from an API, which is a number but API return is string, so I make $mynumber = floatval($mynumber); and it works perfectly. But, after I make a math operation such as $newnumber = $mynumber * 1.5; I get a weird error.
echo $newnumber;



returns the number as "8.5E-6", which is perfectly fine and shows that $newnumberholds a value. Also echo gettype($newnumber); also returns "double" so everything seems perfect. But whenever I try to print the input as
echo number_format($newnumber);



it just prints "0" on the screen. Also, if I try to use that $newnumber variable on curl, I get error on the web site I'm trying to call APIs and it says "value can not be 0", so it seems like the value for that variable also passes as 0 on API request.


When I try to use number_format on the first variable, before multiplication, it returns the value without any problem, so the problem is not on the number_format function as well.


At this point I'm stuck and don't know how to solve this, any idea?

Power BI Issue: Calculated Items Misbehaving When Filtering

I'm encountering a perplexing issue in my Power BI report that involves calculated items. Any insight or suggestion is much appreciated.


Here's a breakdown:


Data Model:



* FactData

* DimProductHierarchy

* DimVersionName1 (disconnected table)

* DimVersionName2 (disconnected table)






Measures:



* [Volume] = SUM(FactData[Volume]






Table Chart1:
Category column - DimProductHierarchy[Level 1]
Value - "Version 1", which is a calculated item I created in Tabular Editor


Table Chart2:
Category column - DimProductHierarchy[Level 1]
Value - "Version 2", which is a calculated item I created in Tabular Editor


Slicer1
Used column - DimVersionName1[Version Name]
Only applied to - Table Chart 1


Slicer2
Used column - DimVersionName2[Version Name]
Only applied to - Table Chart 2


Calculated Items 1 (Version 1):
VAR SelectedVersion1 = SELECTEDVALUE(DimVersionName1[Version Name]) VAR MyFilter = FILTER(ALL(FactData[Version Name]), FactData[Version Name] = SelectedVersion1) VAR Result = CALCULATE(SELECTEDMEASURE(), MyFilter) RETURN Result


Calculated Items 2 (Version 1):
VAR SelectedVersion2 = SELECTEDVALUE(DimVersionName2[Version Name]) VAR MyFilter = FILTER(ALL(FactData[Version Name]), FactData[Version Name] = SelectedVersion2) VAR Result = CALCULATE(SELECTEDMEASURE(), MyFilter) RETURN Result


Other Details:



* FactData and DimProductHierarchy are connected with the Many-to-One relationship.






The Problem:
When I click on a category in Table Chart 1, Table Chart 2 correctly filters to display only that selected category. However, the measure value in Table Chart 2 unexpectedly changes to match the value in Table Chart 1, rather than retaining its original value.


Question:
Can someone help me understand why the measure in Table Chart 2 is getting affected by the interaction with Table Chart 1, and how I can ensure that each visual maintains its own measure value?

I’m looking into an easy way to leverage docblocks or annotations to do this. I am familiar with PHPdox, but am reluctant to commit to the setup needed for that, although that appears to be the best option I can find which actually works. submitted by /u/TokenGrowNutes

hi..i am creating a personal book management system. i want to delete book information(ISBN, author name,title) from the database

my code doesnt work. i dont know why..it should delete the isbn from the database
def delbook_by_isbn(database):
search_information = input("Enter ISBN to delete the book: ")
book_matched = search_books_by_information(database, search_information)
if not book_matched:
print("No matching records found.")
return database

print("\nMatching Books:")
for row in book_matched:
print(row)

delete_option = input("Do you want to delete information of this book? (yes/no): ").lower()

if delete_option == 'yes':
for book in book_matched:
database.remove(book)
print("Books deleted successfully.")
return database
else:
print("No books deleted.")
return database

RAG as part of flow

I was wondering if someone has experience with real-life RAG flows.


A very simple scenario


User asks: Give me the top 5 takeaways "search phrase" (e.g. MS keynote)


The code behind it runs an Azure AI search and returns five relevant documents - that are passed via a prompt including the user's original question to the AI


The system answers with a text with the top 5 takeaways


And this is where most of examples on the internet end


How do you handle the following question from user:


Give me 5 more takeaways


If you ran azure search with this phrase, you will not for sure get anything relevant to the original question, or do you pass this question straight to AI where you include chat history, original question, original RAG and AI answer?


What are your experiences?


thanks

Computing gradient of output with respect to an intermediate layer in Theano

I'm trying to implement heatmaps of class activation in theano, based on section 5.4.3 Visualizing heatmaps of class activation of Deep learning with Python.


I'm able to compute the gradient of the predicted class (class 0) with regard to input samples in the mini-batch. Here are the relevant parts of my code:
import theano.tensor as T
import numpy as np
import lasagne as nn
import importlib
import theano
from global_vars import *
theano.config.floatX = 'float32'

seq_len = 19
num_features = 42
config_name = 'pureConv'
config_initialize(config_name)

metadata_path = "metadata/pureConv/dump_pureConv-20230429-160908-223.pkl"
metadata = np.load(metadata_path, allow_pickle=True)

config = importlib.import_module("configurations.%s" % config_name)
params = np.array(metadata['param_values'])
l_in, l_out = config.build_model()
nn.layers.set_all_param_values(l_out, metadata['param_values'])

all_layers = nn.layers.get_all_layers(l_out)
i=0
for layer in all_layers:
#name = string.ljust(layer.__class__.__name__, 32)
name = layer.__class__.__name__
print(" layer %d: %s %s %s" % (i, name, nn.layers.get_output_shape(layer), nn.layers.count_params(layer)))
i+=1

layer_name = all_layers[34]
sym_x = T.tensor3()
conv_output = nn.layers.get_output(layer_name, sym_x, deterministic=True) #Conv1DLayer
nn_output = nn.layers.get_output(l_out, sym_x, deterministic=True) #softmax output
grads = theano.gradient.jacobian(nn_output[:,0], wrt=sym_x)
res = theano.function(inputs=[sym_x], outputs=[nn_output, conv_output, grads],allow_input_downcast=True)
input_data = np.random.random((64, seq_len, num_features))

out, conv, grads =res(input_data)
print("Model output shape", out.shape)
print("Conv output shape",conv.shape)
print("Gradients out shape", grads.shape)

How to create a custom Layout which will be displayed as floating element in jetpack compose?

I have requirement to create a component which will be displayed by the nested child component but it should not be constrained inside to any it's parent component. And I can position it like top, bottom, end, start. It's exactly like Dialog but more customized and I should be able to interact content behind this floating layout. Can we achieve this type of requirement in jetpack compose ??

Subtitles file in the Video

When creating the player, I ran into a problem:




To use this code, you need to have a file with subtitles, but it so happened that subtitles are EMBEDDED IN THE VIDEO CODE, that is, subtitles are in the video, but there is no file with them (because I downloaded it)


How to solve this problem?

React Native Android biometrics - can I locally authenticate using face lock? From what I see, only fingerprint authentication works

I can set a fingerprint and a face unlock on my Android phone and currently I am trying to check if either is available and biometrically authenticate the user in my application.


I am currently using the react-native-biometrics package which supports both TouchID and FaceID for iOS, but only Biometrics for Android. When I do this:
const { biometryType } = await biometrics.isSensorAvailable();



It is only defined if I have a fingerprint unlock set up.
const { success } = await biometrics.simplePrompt({
promptMessage: 'Confirmation',
});



Also only triggers if I have fingerprint unlock set up. It doesn't do anything if I just have face unlock set up.


From what I can see, all React Native libraries that I have found only support fingerprint for Android. I imagine there must be some sort of Android reason for this?

In MacOS, can I control a window's location automatically?

When I'm waiting for a webinar with Zoom on MacOS, there's a Zoom bug that the 'Webinar will start shortly' window keeps jumping into the middle of the screen every minute and cannot be prevented from doing that.


If I were using Linux/X, I would be able to tell the window manager to recognise this window and keep it in the corner, or offscreen, or something.


All the web searching I've done comes up with how to keep windows on top - nearly the opposite of what I want.


The closest I've found to a solution is setting Zoom in the Icon Bar to 'Options > Assign to: all desktops' which (bizarrely) hides all the zoom windows underneath all other windows if I'm not actively using it... except, of course, for the one I'd actually like to hide.


Obviously the correct solution is to become massively wealthy, buy Zoom, and force them to fix their damn software. Or buy Apple and force them to rename themselves X and... oh, wait, that's something else.


Is there something I can do to prevent this 'Webinar is almost ready to start' popup from... uh, popping up?

How to resize the console window and move it to fill the screen

I am using C++ in Visual Studio 2017, and I am making a text based game in the console window.


When I run my program, and it opens the console window, I want it to automatically go into full screen mode.


Here is my current attempt, where it resizes the console window, but it doesn't move to fill the screen and goes off of the edge
#include

int main()
{
HWND window = GetDesktopWindow();
HWND console = GetConsoleWindow();
RECT r;

if (GetWindowRect(window, &r))
{
int width = r.right - r.left;
int height = r.bottom - r.top;
MoveWindow(console, 0, 0, width, height, TRUE);
}
}



When I run it, the console window opens to a random spot on the screen as normal, but then it grows to the size of the full screen, but the top left corner doesn't move.


When I run the program

How to resize a cylinder from one end and move it backwards in Roblox

I'm making a cigarette in Roblox and I want it to work correctly


it made the cig resize to the front.


you can get it yourself here:

https://filetransfer.io/data-package/qKBHvHxS#link />

and for people who want the code all you really need to see is this:
for i = bit.Size.X, 0, -0.1 do
local tweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(0.1)
local goal = {}
goal.Size = Vector3.new(i, bit.Size.Y, bit.Size.Z)
local tween = TweenService:Create(bit, tweenInfo, goal)
tween:Play()
wait(0.1)
bit.CFrame = bit.CFrame + bit.CFrame.LookVector * -0.1
end



But seriously, I do recommend downloading the RBXM file and actually testing it.


Also its a tool, so this accounts for rotations.

Reference Document for Laravel / Filament

Hello all - I am so much loving Laravel and Filament - been looking at Laravel and somewhat used it a couple years back - but now with Laravel 10, Filament 3, LiveWire, PhpStorm, GitHub CoPilot - it all comes together to make the coding so good, I want to code more.

I love to read the docs and I always have now laravel docs and filament docs open in tabs at all times - though google sometimes takes to the docs pages which are for older laravel and filament, but its fine.

I am trying to see if there is a Laravel and/or Filament Reference Document website ? a palce which would list all classes, their methods and properties - for now, I am diving into the code files trying to figure out what is available and also relying on the auto complete list in PhpStorm, but maybe a separate document where I can do CTRL+F would be great. submitted by /u/zaidpirwani
