![]() These issues have caused problems even in cast-iron engines such as the 4.3-liter V6 and in the 4.3 and 5.7 V8s in GMs rear-drive sedans. GM thought it bought some time with the extended-life Dex-Cool it began using in its 1996 cars, but it's been discovering that neglect leads to low coolant levels and low antifreeze concentrations. Volkswagen (whose cooling systems on its rear-drive vans were among the nearly impossible to drain) has never even had a specified drain interval-just an annual inspection. The vehicle manufacturers recognized this problem years ago, but no one had any great solutions. Although the public buys most of the antifreeze today, more cooling systems than not are totally neglected. Problem is, most rads hold as little as 25% of total system capacity, so that doesn't help much, particularly on today's cars, which need great anticorrosion protection for their aluminum engines and heat exchangers. Or the radiator may get a 50/50 mix-or maybe just water. Maybe it's a couple of gallons of pure antifreeze, but today the kind that's used is critical. That someone is the public, which may drain the radiator every couple of years and pour in.well, who knows what or how much. Something or someone obviously is not making sense. And historically, replacing it has been considered so simple that three-quarters of the stuff is being sold to do-it-yourselfers. The "it" we're talking about, of course, is antifreeze/coolant. And finally, it's impossible to keep it all in because it leaks out or escapes in other ways. Deciding what to put in often is a puzzle, and when you finally do make a choice, you can hardly get it all in. It's impossible to get it all out, and when you remove as much as you can, it can be a problem to dispose of.

![]() Our research relies upon eye tracking hardware and software to collect and analyze the eye gazes. Proper understanding can help us to inform inexperienced coders to efficiently and accurately approach, discover, and mitigate security flaws. Our objective is to gain insight into the strategies and techniques from both novice and experienced developers. Their behavior to analyze source code and develop mitigation techniques is not well understood. Secure coders' experiences and performances vary greatly and any missed security flaws in source code may lead to costly consequences. We propose additional visualization techniques to help researchers investigate behavior of software developers' while they work software coding tasks. Finally, we discuss the limitations of current visualization methods, specifically for user controlled dynamic stimuli consisting of existing source code stimuli. Our decision matrix maps objectives for software programming to analysis techniques for comparing the eye gazes among software developers'. We propose an eye tracking design and analysis framework, which break down the various stages of software coding that require using different programming skills. Our systematic literature survey focuses on published methods for multiple types of static and dynamic changing eye tracking stimuli, especially techniques that use multiple participant-editable types of stimuli presented at once to allow for a realistic coding experience. A software developer tasks, and individual actions create complexity to design eye tracking experiments and to analyze the eye gazes. A beneficial insight is to visualize the eye gazes that capture coding behavior. One accurate and objective approach is to utilize eye tracking techniques to capture how developers' write code, use tools, and read natural language documents and instructions. The coding behavior of a software developer is not easily gathered and investigated. A common thread is that decisions that were taken in an effort to avoid one threat to validity may pose a larger threat than the one they removed. In order to promote the development and use of sound experimental methodology, we discuss both considerations which need to be applied and potential problems that might occur, with regard to the experimental subjects, the code they work on, the tasks they are asked to perform, and the metrics for their performance. ![]() In addition, myriad different factors can influence the outcome, and seemingly small nuances may be detrimental to the study’s validity. But it is hard to conduct controlled experiments with human developers, and we also need to find a way to operationalize what “comprehension” actually means. The prevailing approach for such studies is to use controlled experiments, where the difference between treatments sheds light on factors which affect comprehension. As a result, studying code comprehension is also hard. Understanding program code is a complicated endeavor. Our tool helped to analyze the difference between the strategic program comprehension of programmers based on their demographic background, time taken to complete the task, choice of programming task, and expertise. We illustrate the usefulness of our tool by applying it to the eye movements of 216 programmers of multiple expertise levels that were collected during two code comprehension tasks. The tool supports interaction techniques like filter functions, aggregations, data sampling, and many more. It can be inspected in combination with overlaid scanpaths in which the saccades can be visually encoded in several forms, including straight, curved, and orthogonal lines, modifiable by interaction techniques. The source code is shown as a visual stimulus. Hence the focus of this work is on code and program comprehension. This paper proposes an open source visual analytics tool consisting of several views and perspectives on eye movement data collected during code reading tasks when writing computer programs. The width is the width in user coordinates/px units, within the SVG code, that should be scaled to fill the width of the area into which you’re drawing your SVG (the view port in SVG lingo). Its value is a list of four numbers, separated by whitespace or commas: x, y, width, height. ![]() The viewBox is an attribute of the element.

It is 9 feet 10 inches long by 9 feet 1 inch wide (3 m by 2.8 m) and about 7 feet high (2.1 m). One thing that makes Curiosity stand out is its sheer size: Curiosity is about the size of a small SUV. Perseverance launched on July 30, and is scheduled to land in Mars’ Jezero Crater on Feb.For the latest news about the mission, follow 's Curiosity Mars Rover coverage. Past missions have been centered around whether habitable conditions existed for life on Mars, but NASA’s Mars 2020 rover will attempt to assess both past habitability and search for signs of past life on the Martian world. Perseverance will be taking things one step further than Curiosity by searching for signs of past microbial life. ![]() NASA’s Mars 2020 Perseverance rover is based off Curiosity’s design.Īccording to NASA, to keep both risks and cost low, the new Mars 2020 rover, or Perseverance, was architecturally modeled after Curiosity. The tether was then severed, and the landing system flew away to crash land.Ĭuriosity landed wheels down, ready to explore. Then, during the final seconds prior to touching down on Martian soil, the landing system fired rockets so it would hover above the surface while a tether lowered Curiosity safely onto Mars. The new landing procedure first had the spacecraft descend to the surface via parachute (see image to the right, taken by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter). Not only was it the largest rover to land on the red planet, but a new landing system was also tested. When Curiosity landed on Mars, it was a big deal. The Mars Science Laboratory mission tested an entirely new landing method. ![]() Curiosity snapped a 1.8 billion-pixel panorama on Mars.Īccording to NASA, this 1.8 billion-pixel panorama (featured in the video below) is the largest and highest resolution panorama the rover has ever captured.Īs if that isn’t cool enough, the panorama yielded some important discoveries about the history of water on Mars.Ĥ. The fact that Curiosity has been roving around on the surface of Mars for eight years is a testament to its design. In this kind of system, electricity is generated by the heat given off from plutonium’s radioactive decay.Īccording to NASA, this power source has exceeded its required operational lifespan, which was at least one Martian year, or 687 Earth days. Curiosity’s power system has far exceeded its operational lifespan.Ĭuriosity is equipped with a radioisotope power system. In fact, NASA uses the names interchangeably, although it should be noted that the mission itself is the Mars Science Laboratory mission. Since its official name is quite long, it is often just referred to by its common name, Curiosity. While most people know it as Curiosity, this Martian rover also goes by another, more technical name: The Mars Science Laboratory. This week we remember the historic landing of Curiosity, the beginning of an ongoing quest for answers about Mars’ past, with five fast facts about the mission. Thanks to Curiosity, scientists now know much more about the planet. It has been on the red planet for over 2,800 Sols (Martian day), taken more than 700,000 raw images and traveled over 14 miles on the surface of Mars. 6, 2012, which it continues to explore today. The roaming rover soon discovered mineral and chemical evidence of past habitable Martian environments.Ĭuriosity, which launched on Nov. ![]() The car-sized rover journeyed to Mars to answer one very important scientific question: Was the Martian environment ever habitable?Ĭuriosity didn’t have to wait long to find the answer.

The murderer in this story plants several red herrings to throw the 10 house guests (whose numbers soon begin to dwindle) off of his trail. In this excerpt from Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None, the character of Vera recalls a verse from the nursery rhyme “Ten Little Soldiers” that makes a reference to a red herring (the fish). ![]() His disappearance is just a red herring across the track." You may say what you like-Armstrong's on the island still. He took away the china Indian to make you think he was. Don't you see there's a clue there?" She recited in a meaning voice: "Four little Indian boys going out to sea A red herring swallowed one and then there were three." She went on: "A red herring-that's the vital clue. And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie "You've forgotten the nursery rhyme. Red herrings are often used in fiction, especially in thriller, suspense, and mystery novels. While the news does excite the teacher, it still doesn’t address the fact that the assignment hasn’t been completed. In this exchange between a teacher and student, the student diverts attention from the fact that he didn’t finish his assignment by delivering news that he knows will make his English teacher proud. Teacher: Wow, that’s fantastic news, Greg! Student: I know I should have, but I was so busy last night working on my poem that won first prize at the poetry contest this morning. Teacher: The assignment was due last night, why haven’t you submitted it yet? The real exchange above, which took place during a presidential debate in 1984, shows Ronald Reagan’s wit as he turned the question of age back on his opponent. I am not going to exploit my opponent’s youth and inexperience.” Do you think that with the threat of nuclear war, age should be an issue in this campaign?” President, your opponent, Walter Mondale is considerably younger than you. Red Herring Examplesīelow are several examples of the red herring fallacy at play in everyday situations. See the examples below for a better understanding of how red herrings work. However, the red herring fallacy can be used by anyone as a way out of a losing argument. Red herrings are often used in thriller and suspense novels to mislead audiences or direct them toward false conclusions, so that when the truth is finally revealed, the impact of the twist is more significant. The red herring fallacy got its name from the red herring (a cured and salted fish) that was often used by fugitives to divert bloodhounds with its pungent smell. In writing, and in rhetoric more generally, a red herring or “red herring fallacy” refers to an argument or plot line that is used to divert an audience’s attention, either from the real argument (in nonfiction), or perhaps from the true culprit of a mystery novel (in fiction). No, it’s not another way to say that your writing smells fishy! You may have heard of a “red herring” being used in faulty arguments, or even in suspenseful literature. One of the best ways is to update any outdated components. How do you optimize Chrome on Mac?ĭespite the above concerns, there are ways that you can optimize Chrome on Mac for a better experience. Apple focuses more on you as a treasured client, marketing hardware, and software beneficial to you. Most of Google’s revenue is in the form of adverts, making you a product instead of a consumer with information that the company can sell. Speaking about privacy settings brings another concern to the table. While Safari has its own set of extensions, they won’t eat at the memory or conflict with security features as much as Chrome. Some of them have different privacy settings than Safari, which may introduce malware or other threats to your device. The installed extensions take up several resources, which may also cause issues.Ĭhrome Extensions also has several security concerns. ![]() While it’s one of the browser’s most prized utilities, it’s also why battery life runs out so quickly. The main reason is the latter’s Chrome Extensions tool. When it comes to choosing between Safari and Chrome, most Mac users choose the former. However, Chrome only works on macOS Yosemite or higher. Many reasons exist for not upgrading the system, especially if you don’t like any of the new features. If you’re a Mac device owner who prefers operating systems older than macOS Yosemite, Chrome won’t work for you. Instead, you’ll need to hold it in for a longer period for it to take effect. What this means for you is that closing apps won’t happen instantly when you hit Cmd+Q. Even with a few updates from Google, it still appears to remain a problem for those hoping for long battery life.Īnother issue is that the browser was developed within the ChromeOS, which isn’t optimized for macOS. For one, the browser has been known to drain the battery life of laptops and notebooks. Many people that use Chrome on Mac devices have cited various issues. If this method fails, your best option is to contact the Help Center to find a solution. When you’re ready, you can open Chrome, access Finder, and then click on Eject in the sidebar. If you don’t have the password at hand, you can move it to the desktop and change the settings. Your Mac device may ask you for your password to ensure optimum security. You shouldn’t open it just yet, as you’ll first need to drag the icon to the Applications folder. Once completed, you’ll need to look for the file ‘googlechrome.dmg.’ A separate window will open, giving you the option to select Chrome. To start the process, you first need to download the installation file. However, you can also download and install Chrome if that's your preferred option. Many people use browsers like Safari, Firefox, Avast Secure Browser, or Camino on Mac devices. You can also play around with Chrome resource constructions if you have the technical expertise. If you’re using Google as your preferred search engine, you can open the tab for access to Youtube or a translator for transforming site text into English from a different language.

That disappears quickly, given how it’s shared between iCloud Mail, iCloud Drive, iCloud Photos, Messages, and iCloud-enabled apps.Īpple will, of course, sell you more iCloud space. I use a MacBook Air 11″ with only a 64GB SSD making each 1GB of unnecessary files or folders significant, and I was able to quickly recover about 12% of total disk capacity just by looking through OmniDiskSweeper and removing what I know isn’t needed.Ĭonsider adding OmniDiskSweeper to part of a general Mac maintenance routine, even those with very large hard drives will find it to be an effective method of keeping a file system under control.By default, Apple gives every iCloud user 5 GB of storage space. Ultimately how much all this matters and how much disk space you need to reclaim is going to depend on the capacity of a Mac hard drive. It is critical you understand exactly what you see and what its purpose is, because deleting the wrong thing could break Mac OS system software or lead to the unintended loss of critical data or personal files. You can often find very large files or folders you may have long forgotten about by using tools like OmniDiskSweeper, and of course things like caches and temp files will be shown too, along with personal files and data. 900MB of unused and long forgotten Applications were uninstalled freeing up space.The Downloads folder has become enormous, deleting everything from there recovered a quick 4GB.Over 1GB of unused Mac OS X Voices were found and removed. ![]() Spotify Caches were taking up 1GB of disk space, removing that and deleting unnecessary user caches recovered 2GB of disk space immediately.The user ~/Library/Application Support/ directory contained 1GB of files for apps that are no longer used.For example, sweeping my drive with OmniDiskSweeper I discovered and removed the following items: Under expert hands this can help to recover disk space by quickly locating large items on a drive, but these are truly advanced tools, they are not for novice Mac users.Įxactly what can be removed is going to vary per user and per drive and per Mac, but everyone will certainly find items that are no longer necessary to keep around. This requires careful consideration as to what individual files and folders are, regardless of their size. OmniDiskSweeper will show every single file and folder on a Mac leaving it up to the user to figure out what is needed or not. Sloppy use of tools like OmniDiskSweeper can lead to permanent data loss. ![]() If you don’t absolutely know what a file or directory is and if it’s necessary or not, do not delete it! There is no going back, and if you accidentally delete important system files or folders you may find yourself having to recover from a backup or reinstalling Mac OS X. Important: OmniDiskSweeper is intended for users who are knowledgable about their Mac file system.

In addition to Xcode for Mac, there are plenty of alternatives out there that have been specifically designed to compete with other code editors that are available on PC and Mac.ĬodeRunner, for example, offers much of the same functionality as Microsoft Visual Studio for Mac. Of course, Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code Mac are not the only options out there for Apple users hoping to find an IDE or source-code editor. Using better alternatives to Visual Studio on Mac NET Core developers who want to get away from using Boot Camp or a VM to run Visual Studio, for example - in which it represents a very solid solution.Īgain, because the basic version of the app is free, it’s worth downloading and testing for yourself before you decide that it won’t be suitable for your purposes. NET users building Xamarin apps with an iOS build, or. That’s not to say, however, that there’s no reason to download Visual Studio for Mac. In some ways it’s unfortunate that the Visual Studio Code Mac, Windows, and Linux versions perform to such a similar degree, because it highlights the shortcomings of using the original Visual Studio on Mac. On the other hand, Visual Studio Code for Mac (which is a totally different app to Visual Studio) has a generally positive reputation. Likewise, the Mac version doesn’t offer the support for Python, Node.js, or SQL Server data tools that’s available on Windows. When using Visual Studio C++ Mac coders, for example, are straight out of luck as this is something the Mac version still lacks. The most common complaint directed at VS on Mac is that it lacks the polish and some of the functionality associated with its Windows alternative. They are also comparing it with how the app of the same name functions on PC. However, many individuals who download Visual Studio for Mac aren’t just comparing it with other code editors. Whatever complaints users might have, the price is certainly right. This puts it in the same league as Apple’s Xcode.

You’ll find out more useful tips below on using Visual Studio for Mac in 2020, with information on how it stacks up against Xcode for Mac and various other alternatives that might even make you want to move away from Visual Studio on Mac. The question is has this been enough to change public perception of the app to make it a true Xcode Mac competitor? These included improved functionality for. In the years that followed, Visual Studio for Mac has undergone various tweaks and improvements. Initially, they weren’t far off the mark. In 2017 Microsoft released Visual Studio for Mac, although many users wondered whether it would turn out to be a reskinned version of Xamarin Studio Xamarin had been acquired by Microsoft just one year earlier. There are plenty of code editing options out there for developers who use Apple products - Xcode Mac being one notable example - but, up until a few years ago, Visual Studio wasn’t one of them. |
