Terri Schiavo and the intensity gap

Terri Schiavo and the intensity gap 03/28/2005 12:58 PM
The conservative pundits' struggle with the Terry Schiavo case continues to make for awkward reading. The most recent example comes from National Review columnist David Frum, a former speechwriter for George W. Bush. Frum, like many others on the far right, argues that it doesn't matter that nearly 70 percent of Americans disagree with the religious right over the Schiavo case because most of them don’t feel strongly about the issue. What matters is that a strong pro-life minority feels passionately about the case, and they’re the ones who are going to be moved to action.

Variable Variables in PHP

Variable Variables in PHP 12/19/2002 10:43 PM
Variable Variables in PHP Well since it's late but I'm still grinding and I feel guilty for not blogging much today, here's a special PHP Treat: A Variable Variable Tutorial. Yes that's right. There is a feature in PHP called "Variable Variables". One of the issues that I had with implementing our Digibuy support was our old friend and enemy: Parsing. This is such a fundamental thing but there always seems to be a new wrinkle in it. In this case we had an existing PHP script which did our registration calculations and was expecting a certain set of variables. Now this code was fairly complex and I didn't want to re-write it (much). Here's the input data we had to parse: author_id=BillBrown & author_password=HemosRules & prod_sku=98079949999 With the exception that it had like 30 odd variables in it. Since my code was expecting a series of variables I needed to parse this and automatically create a series of variables like $author_id and $author_password. Now if this data was being given to me by a URL then it would be easy -- PHP could automatically do it or I could just pull them out of $_REQUEST. But, instead, I had them going to me as if they were a file. So ... How do you create a series of variables on the fly? Note: Yes I could have made an associative array but that wouldn't have taught me anything, now would it ? I could also have gotten a similar effect with the extract function but I found out about that after this working. And if the code is working then ... Well deep in the recesses of what I call a brain was a recollection of "variable variables". I think I heard about this in a talk that Rasmus gave although I can't honestly be sure. I do know that whenever you need to do "meta" type tasks like this in a language, you need to poke around the oddball features since that's usually where they reside. What I do is look for the sections of the documentation that I've never read. The idea behind a variable variable is simple: interpret the value of a variable and make it into a variable itself. I.e. the "variable variable" nomenclature. Since php uses $ for indicating a variable they've chosen to use $$ to make a variable variable. Let's say you have two variables, $part1 and $part2. If $part1 = "author_id" and $part2="HemosRules" how do I get to $author_id = "HemosRules". Simple: $$part1 = $part2. Yup. It's just that easy. Of course I did need to wrap it into a string parsing loop. Here's the guts of it: $strarray = explode("&",$input); foreach ($strarray as $stritem) { $stritem = trim($stritem); $part1 = substr ( $stritem, 0, strpos ( $stritem,"=" ) ); $part2 = substr ( $stritem, strpos ( $stritem,"=" )+1, strlen ( $stritem ) ); #magic! $$ is a "variable variable" i.e. it converts the value #in the variable into a variable itself $$part1 = $part2; } The way this works is an input string, $input, contains everything that needs to be processed. First I explode this into an array using "&" as the delimiter. Then I loop over the array with a foreach loop creating a $part1 variable and a $part2 variable. Finally I just do the magic $$part1 = $part2. Here's the example Source Code. Here's the working Example Thanks again to my favorite Systems Administrator, Apokalyptik, for showing me how to use PHP to generate code listings. Much easier than pasting it into a blog entry. More on Variable Variables from PHP.Net: [_Go_] Variable Variables. A little confusing but definitely a frothy good thing!

Variable Compliance Actuators

Variable Compliance Actuators 04/15/2004 06:21 PM
The CMU Robotics Institute has released a new technical paper title, "An Actuator with Mechanically Adjustable Series Compliance" (PDF format). It sounds complicated but basically what they're describing is the use of a spring with adjustable stiffness in the leg of a biped. The spring is adjusted to recover and reuse energy that would otherwise be lost when the robot is running, jumping, or performing other high-energy tasks. The paper includes plenty of background info, diagrams, and a photo of the complete leg actuator. The research is being done at the CMU Microdynamic Systems Lab.

In the beginning, the file was void, and without text. The Programmer brought text to the file by saying "Let there be hello world" and there was hello world, and it was good. But soon hello world was not as good as it once was, and the Programmer said "let there be change!" And where there once was static content in the file, there was now variable content. Beholding the creation, the Programmer was happy, and all was well...

2004-12-21: The RDF Data Access Working Group has released the First Public Working Draft of the SPARQL Variable Binding Results XML Format. The SPARQL query language (pronounced "sparkle") offers developers and end users a way to write and to consume search results across a wide range of information such as personal data, social networks and metadata about digital artifacts like music and images. SPARQL also provides a means of integration over disparate sources. Visit the Semantic Web home page. (News archive)
