[markiemelon]

hii! i just found out about your blog! i wanted to request something but i also wanted to compliment your work! you have the writing style that pulls me in so that i really read the story word for word (most of the time i just skim through the entire fic to just get to the ending lol) so thank you for existing and writing these stories. they feel like a big hug! keep up the good work, i will definetly read your work in the future and catch up on your other work that i havent gotten to yet!

as for my request haha, i was wondering if you could write for jeno? im a sucker for soft jeno, but i cant really find anything that isnt wayyy too cringey. tbh soft jeno is very rare i feel like *sobs*

~

like, jeno is a really cold boyfriend who doesnt really show his affection, and even when he does, he doesnt admit it. for example, when he prepares a gift for you, he puts it in a place where a lot of people can access, so that you dont know that its him. haha and then when you ask him abt it, he pretends he has no idea what ur talking abt.

the only time that jeno is soft and cuddly is when ur abt to sleep or when hes sleepy.

can u js write abt jeno being exceptionally cuddly one day in bed, and the reader is really surprised?

also maybe jeno confesses abt sweet things hes done for reader in the past?

if ur not interested, please ignore! i know i wrote a lot haha, sorry.

bye!

@dungiewungie you are the sweetest. im so flattered. thank you for reading my stories!!!! thank youuu!!! so much!!!!! ♡ ♡ ♡

pillows

☆ genre. flufffff + no warnings

☆ pairings. jeno x gn!reader

{11:55 pm ~ ♡}

you and jeno didn’t live together, but somehow he always found a way back to your place. he loved staying with you. he loved the way that the pillows smelled of your shampoo and how your perfume lingered on the silky sheets…

side by side, you and jeno lied in your bed, heads sunken into your pillows.

“yn, why do you have so many pillows? we can barely fit on this bed.”

he was right, you did have way too many pillows, but you liked piling them up and burring yourself to feel cozy.

he tried to throw some off to the side of the bed but you wouldn’t let him. “noo. i need all of them.”

jeno rolled his eyes and pretended to act annoyed. he shuffled around a bit to get comfortable despite drowning in the fluffiness around him. the two of you lied in silence for a moment.

“talk to me.” he said.

“talk to you?” you answered.

“yeah. it helps me sleep.” his voice was quiet.

your lips stretched past your teeth as you thought of all the things you could talk to jeno about. you figured now would be the perfect time to confront him about something since he couldn’t really go anywhere...

“remember that time you got jealous when my secret admirer sent me flowers?”

“yeah… “ he said shyly. “also..i gave you those flowers.” he confessed, a bit hesitantly. “that was before we started dating so i was kind of embarrassed.” jeno rubbed the nape of his neck.

he avoided looking at you; he was just too flustered to.

hearing that made your cheeks light up. “jenooooooo!” you wanted to give him the biggest hug, but you knew he hated your cuteness aggression. so you just told him how adorable he was, and went back to drifting off to sleep…

“yn. come here.”

your head perked up as you gladly placed yourself the closest you could to jeno while still lying side-by-side.

“no” he said, “here.”

jeno put his arm around your back, and pulled your head to rest on top of his chest. “i meant here.”

you didn’t say anything, you just giggled to yourself as you thought about how funny it was that out of all the pillows you had to choose from, he was the softest one.

thank you thank youuu for requesting! i haven’t had much time to write so I’m sorry this took soooo long. i really hope you like it ♡

update: 5/27

haven't updated in damn near a month and a half bc I'm trash even tho I told myself to make at least one post a month..

pretty much starting on this past Friday (5/24) at like 2:30am I was puking my guts out after feeling weak and sick for at least 2hrs prior to vomiting.. still went to work Friday morning at 9:45am, had a short shift of only working until 1:45... bitch couldn't make it. lol I felt so tired and I still felt sick ugh I went home (left work) halfway thru my shift...(which reminds me bitch pls put in that other 2 hours on ESS before it's too late and u don't get paid fo that)

next day saturday (5/25) i probs woke up at my normal early hour of like 7 or 8... gramps and I did a couple of errands that he wanted to get done, got back to the apt, showered around...12 or 1pm and I after that shower I slept and slept bc I was so damn drained ugh then we went out for a few hours bc Twin was having her party and although I didn't really wanna eat bc I wasn't that hungry I ate a little food and had 2 (second one was my choice lol) daiquiris. I did gag a little but at least I didn't vomit at all that entire day

yesterday (sunday 5/26) i was feeling still tired and stuff but I ate much more than I had the previous 2 days. J and I went out for brunch buffet and I had 2 plates of food and 4 mimosas (mimosas with pineapple juice taste the best over orange and cranberry). I actually did gag a little cause honestly that 4th mimosa was a bit overkill but I didn't throw up again although I came v close

mmmm after the comedy show we got burgers at westport flea market and it wasn't bad.

today (monday 5/27) after not having work practically all weekend today did yet didn't feel like a long day. it was hooooooooot af in that fucking store ugh I was dying even tho I had my water bottle. I felt fine the first half of the day. J made me breakfast before he went to work at around 830 and it was actually a lot lol but I ate everything. Halfway thru my shift tho I felt nauseous and tired just like I did on Friday😭 and I thought i was going to puke at least 3 different times.. I actually did burp about 3-5 times and I basically threw up a little in my mouth to which I just swallowed it back down which is fucking gross but idk ugh. at one point, sometime between 6-630 I stood up straight up answer a customer's question and got suuuuper dizzy 🙃😩 I had to pause for a sec. after that between 630 and when I clocked out for work I felt tired like I needed to sit and nauseous and like shit basically

the time is now 11:43 idk how long ive been writing this post update but ha ha u threw up again about 35mins ago 😊😊😊 so I feel fantastic and can't wait to go to work tomorrow and am looking forward to not eating for the next day or two

on this day im literally four and a half months in with this birth control and nowwwww the side effects of fatigue, nausea, headaches wanna show up now. On top of the daily (light) bleeding ive been dealing with for...shit idek how long now maybe 2-3 months. ugh I just hope this phase of nausea and tiredness goes away quickly and I hope when I reach my six month time this fucking bleeding stops. highkey it could last up to twelve months like ???? I don't need that negative energy in my life ugh so im 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 but who knows.

that's p much it I know this shit was long af oh well it's for me to remember and keep track of anyways

edit 20mins l8r: today is not my 4.5mon mark lmaoooooo that was actually like damn near a week ago 💀 not that anyone is gone check me and my facts lol but yeah the 27th is 4 months 19 days later if we wanna be exact and if we're really being nitpicky and technical since it's after midnight it's 5/28 so im 4mon20days in now

k im annoying myself bye

Note to self

ive had my nexplanon implant for 18 days now, if I can do math. (01/08 aka 13 days b4 my 22nd bday)

I feel like, especially within the last week, I’m always hungry 😭 the last thing I need to do is gain weight bc of this damn bc. Am highkey hoping to drop some weight and clear my skin up if God loves me 😩😩

dec’s period was the 26th-30th.. according to my period app 🙄🙄 (which i downloaded I think maybe early-mid dec?? bc ive never used one before) my jan period was supposed to start on the 23rd.. it’s the 26th… I’ve been cramping (they don’t hurt, but I can just tell that there’s something goin on in my pelvis region) tho since like the 22ndish, or maybe the 20th or 21st idr… This damn bc has probs thrown off my shit.. (im saying this and watch I start fucking bleeding tomorrow)

Sighhhhhh

Also I feel like I get randomly annoyed and irritated but I was already v moody before the damn bc so idk if it’s me or the nexplanon.. mmm

Hopefully I’ll remember to come back to this post in like a month and update myself

I already know although it’ll probs be v v minimal, I do not wanna be spotting for like 6+ months. Can I just skip to not having periods pls n thnx??

Also I feel like at random times my left arm where the bc is feels weird… mmm

umm p sure that’s all the random not-even-three-weeks-in update I have on no-babies-for-three+-years-solution so ye @me pls remember to check back by feb 1 just for the menstrual purpose and then again at the end of feb pls n thnx

Ajagba Edges Stephan Shaw in Heavyweight Main Event

Published: January 16, 2022

VERONA, N.Y.  — The heavyweights boxed instead of brawled, and Efe Ajagba��closed the show strong. Ajagba edged the previously unbeaten Stephan Shaw by 10-round unanimous decision (96-94 3x) Saturday evening at Turning Stone Resort Casino.

Ajagba (17-1, 13 KOs) won his second straight bout since a 2021 defeat to Frank Sanchez. He had surgeries on both elbows after that fight and has re-established himself as a contender to watch. Shaw (18-1, 13 KOs) was ahead 58-56 on all three judges' cards after the sixth but was outlanded 62-37 in the last four rounds.

In a battle of jabs, Ajagba landed his with more frequency (90-48).

“I went back to the corner and they told me to let my hands go, keep throwing punches, my jab. I controlled the fight, so that’s how I won the fight," Ajagba said. “He tried to land the big shots. I watched him to see what he was going to do. He kept throwing the jab, using the jab more.”   Rice Shocks Vianello in Co-Feature   The heavyweight, spoiler, Jonnie Rice, did it again. Rice (16-6-1, 11 KOs) stunned Guido Vianello (10-1-1, 9 KOs), stopping the 2016 Italian Olympian in the seventh round. Vianello was cut over the left eye by a right hand in the sixth round, although the referee initially ruled it was caused by an accidental headbutt.  After a conference with the local commission, the ruling was reversed. Rice entered the fight coming off back-to-back victories over highly regarded prospect Michael Coffie. At the time of the stoppage, all three judges had Vianello ahead: 59-55 2x and 58-56.  “I did it again… another undefeated fighter," Rice said. "I’m not here to call anyone out right now. I’m going to enjoy this victory and then see what’s next.” Junior Lightweights: Abraham "El Super" Nova (22-1, 15 KOs) exorcised the demon of last June's knockout loss to Robeisy Ramirez and knocked down Adam "BluNose" Lopez (16-4, 6 KOs) twice to win a 10-round unanimous decision. The first four rounds were razor-thin, but in the fifth, Nova landed a left hook during an exchange that floored Lopez. In the sixth, Nova knocked down Lopez again, creating a wide gulf on the cards. Lopez buzzed Nova in the eighth but was unable to press the advantage. Scores: 97-91 and 98-90 2x.  Lightweights: Haven Brady Jr. (9-0, 4 KOs) dominated early and had to hold off the late charge of Colombian banger Ruben Cervera (13-4, 11 KOs). Brady was clipped with an overhand right at the end of the fifth round, but he weathered the storm and notched an eight-round unanimous decision. Scores: 80-72, 79-73, and 78-74. Welterweights: Local favorite Bryce Mills (11-1, 4 KOs), from nearby Liverpool, New York, had the fans on their feet from the time he made his ring walk. He did not disappoint, shutting out the aggressive Margarito Hernandez (3-4-1) over six rounds. Scores: 60-54 3x.   Welterweights: Brian Norman Jr. (23-0, 19 KOs) made his Top Rank debut and shook off the ring rust with an eight-round unanimous decision over Argentina's Rodrigo Coria (10-5, 2 KOs). Norman nearly stopped Coria in the opening round, but the southpaw veteran survived and even stunned Norman with a lead left hand in the seventh. Norman scored a knockdown with a left hook in the eighth round to secure the win. Scores: 79-72 and 77-74 2x. Featherweights: Undefeated Brooklyn-born prospect Bruce "Shu Shu" Carrington (6-0, 3 KOs) rolled past Juan Antonio Lopez (17-13-1, 7 KOs) but received some much-needed experience en route to a six-round unanimous decision victory. Scores: 60-54 3x.   Light Heavyweights: Cleveland-born prospect Dante Benjamin Jr. (5-0, 3 KOs) prevailed in the battle of unbeatens with a first-round round TKO over Emmanueal Austin (6-1, 6 KOs). Benjamin knocked down Austin with a left-right combination. Time of stoppage: 2:50.

Lady Bears top No. 12 Maryland behind second half surge

FORT MYERS, Fla. – No. 24/25 Missouri State out-scored No. 11/12 Maryland by 25 factors over the sport’s closing 21 minutes Saturday, overcoming a 43-27 deficit late within the first half for an 81-72 victory over the Terrapins on the Gulf Coast Showcase at Alico Enviornment.

Senior Brice Calip scored a career-high 26 factors and went 10-for-14 on the foul line to steer the Woman Bears (2-0) to their fifth victory over a top-25 group within the final 36 video games, whereas the Terps (1-1) grew to become the highest-ranked group MSU has crushed since No. 5 Duke within the 2001 Candy 16. The 16-point deficit was the most important overcome by the Woman Bears since a 20-point comeback at Oklahoma final November.

Maryland led 43-27 with 1:53 left within the first half earlier than the Woman Bears turned issues round, closing to 43-32 on the break and opening the third quarter on an 18-2 run to show the 16-point deficit right into a 50-45 lead in simply 6:09 of recreation time, together with a 3-pointer from Mya Bhinhar for a 46-45 margin earlier than Sydney Wilson’s bucket ended the run with 5:44 on the clock.

The Woman Bears gained the third quarter by a 23-9 margin to steer 55-52 with half-hour left, and the early components of the fourth interval noticed two ties and 4 lead adjustments, the final approaching Calip free throws with 5:18 to play that gave MSU the lead for good at 66-64.

Emily Gartner and Wilson adopted to make it a 6-0 run at 70-64 with 4:18 remaining, and Missouri State saved the lead at 4 factors or extra till the ultimate horn.

Jasmine Franklin scored 10 of her 14 factors within the second half, including eight rebounds and three steals, and Wilson scored 10 to succeed in double figures for the second straight recreation. MSU gained the rebounding battle 41-36 and compelled 23 Terrapin turnovers. Bhinhar added three steals and three assists.

Seven Woman Bears scored at the least six factors, and the group shot 28-for-67 total (.418) and 5-for-15 from past the arc. MSU has now defeated a Energy 5 college in eight consecutive seasons.

Missouri State closes out the event Sunday afternoon with a 1:30 p.m. Central recreation towards Wake Forest. The Demon Deacons misplaced to No. 14 Arkansas and defeated Davidson to date within the Seashore Bubble.

Folks-Tag: Bhinhar, Brice, Davidson, Emily Gartner, Jasmine Franklin

Faster logical backup of a single table in MySQL.

Logical backup’s are of great use in data migration across cloud environments and table level recoveries. The new Mysql shell 8.0.22 ,has introduced a couple of new utilities named util.dumpTable() and util.exportTable() to export individual tables from a MySQL. Prior to 8.0.22 it is not possible to make a backup of single table using MySQL Shell.MySQL Shell’s new table dump utility  util.dumpTables() from this we can take the dump of the specific tables of the  schema using this utility.it works in the same way as the instance dump utility util.dumpInstance() and schema dump utility util.dumpSchemas() introduced in 8.0.21, but with a different selection of suitable options. The exported items can then be imported into a MySQL Database Service DB System (a MySQL DB System, for short) or a MySQL Server instance using MySQL Shell’s dump loading utility util.loadDump() MySQL Shell’s new table export utility util.exportTable() it exports the relational data file in a local server We can take the dump of the  huge table faster  using  util.dumpTables() it will take less time compare to the mysqldump and mydumper and mysqlpump Making dump using util.dumpTables() We need the latest MySQL Shell 8.0.22 . For our use case I have loaded 10M records on a single table using Sysbench. The size of data post loading is around 20GB.Loading the data with 10M record using sysbench [root@mydbopstest ~]# sysbench /usr/share/sysbench/oltp_read_write.lua --mysql-port=3306 --mysql-user=root --mysql-password --mysql-socket=/data/mysql/mysql.sock --mysql-db=test1 --db-driver=mysql --tables=1 --table-size=100000000 prepare sysbench 1.0.20 (using bundled LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta2) Creating table 'sbtest1'...

The results are below.

This can help database engineers in table rebuild for partitions, migration across cloud infra and it can be replace the regular logical backup too. https://mydbops.wordpress.com/2020/11/20/mysql-shell-dump-loading-utility/

BELOIT — The weather cleared and it was bombs away in Beloit Saturday afternoon as Salem and West Branch resumed their football game that was postponed by lightning at halftime Friday night.

When the last aerial attack fell, it was West Branch which claimed a 44-20 Eastern Buckeye Conference win over the Quakers in Clinton Heacock Stadium. The two teams combined to throw 66 passes in the game for a combined 506 yards.

“It (the offense) was clicking,” said West Branch head coach Ken Harris. “The kids are pumped (to beat Salem). It’s been an up and down year and this is a really good way to start it off.”

With the win, the Warriors snapped a three-game losing streak against the Quakers.

West Branch piled up 536 yards of total offense, triggered by senior quarterback Brock Hillyer, who accounted for 434 yards of total offense himself. Hillyer rushed for 82 yards on nine carries and completed 32-of-44 passes for 352 yards and two touchdowns.

“It’s the first time I’ve gotten a win over them (the Quakers) and it meant a lot of different things,” said Hillyer. “I’m super lucky to have the receivers I have — I can’t just take credit for my performance.”

“We just couldn’t stop them,” said Salem head coach Ron Johnson. “They (the Warriors) have too many quality people they have the opportunity to go to. West Branch played very well. It’s a good football team and we have to play better.”

Hillyer, a three-year starter, spread the ball around among nine different Warrior receivers as West Branch flashed its overall team speed and skill. Nick Wilson led all West Branch receivers with eight catches for 132 yards and a touchdown. He also had an interception on defense.

Salem, which couldn’t generate much offense during Friday night’s rainiest, got its offense rolling under the hot sun Saturday afternoon as the Quakers amassed 221 yards after having just 57 yards on Friday night. Sophomore quarterback Jackson Johnson accounted for 244 yards with 90 yards rushing on 17 carries and 154 yards passing on 10-of-22 with two touchdowns and two interceptions.

“They (the Quakers) are a good offense,” said Harris. “We stopped them when we had to.”

West Branch led 14-0 after Friday night’s postponement on a Josh Gregory 5-yard scoring pass from Hillyer and an Alek Wilson five-yard run.

Salem trimmed West Branch’s lead on its first possession of Saturday’s action when Johnson hit Blaize Exline with a short pass and he took it 65 yards to the end zone, making it 14-6 after a missed conversion try.

“Last night we didn’t get off to a great start but today we responded the right way,” said Johnson. “We had some guys step up and make some plays. I thought Blaize Exline did a nice job.”

But West Branch’s offense was unstoppable as the Warriors scored on four of their six second-half possessions and went back up 22-6 on an 11-yard scoring scamper by Hillyer. The Warriors also added the two-point conversion on a pass from Hillyer to Nick Wilson.

Salem again trimmed the deficit when running back Jason Austin raced around left end from six yards out and Johnson completed the conversion pass to Brock Young, cutting the West Branch had to 22-14 with 1:11 showing in the third quarter.

But West Branch scored three fourth-quarter touchdowns to seal the game away on a four-yard scoring run by Alek Wilson, a 48-yard pass from Hillyer to Nick Wilson and a three-yard quarterback keeper by Hillyer, who also had a conversion run. Ben Tolson kicked two of the West Branch PAT boots.

Hillyer praised the play of West Branch’s offensive line which has three new starters.

“There are some new guys (on the line) and we all trust in each other,” noted the West Branch quarterback.

Salem’s final score of the game occurred on a fourth-down pass of 20 yards from Johnson to Exline. The conversion pass failed.

NOTES

• Both Salem and West Branch are on the road for EBC games next Friday.

The Quakers play at Canton South.

“It (Canton South) is a team that always plays us very tough, it’s a tough place to play because it’s a long trip and we’ll go over there and give it our best shot,” said Johnson.

• Meanwhile, West Branch treks to Minerva Friday evening to play the Lions.

“This (win) sets the tone, now we have somebody next week that we’re looking forward to from last year,” said Harris. “Our goal is to get better every week so we’ll see if we do that next Friday.”

Janibek Alimkhanuly Ices Danny Dignum in 2

Published: May 24, 2022

LAS VEGAS — The middleweight division officially has a new boogeyman. Janibek "Qazaq Style" Alimkhanuly destroyed the previously unbeaten Danny Dignum with a fight-ending uppercut in the second round to win the vacant WBO Interim middleweight world title Saturday evening at Resorts World Las Vegas. Janibek (12-0, 8 KOs), a 2016 Olympian from Kazakhstan, landed 15 of his final 17 power shots and 21 of 33 overall. Dignum (14-1-1, 8 KOs), from Essex, England, formerly held the WBO European title, but was no match for the sensational southpaw. Janibek knocked down Dignum in the opening round, and it was only a matter of time until the hammer dropped. And, at 2:11 of round two, Janibek's "Qazaq Thunder" landed flush and caused Dignum's head to ricochet off the canvas. “I am in the ring right now, and I want to tell every champion in this weight class, I am here waiting for you. I am asking every champion to come and fight me," Janibek said. “I told {Dignum} I wish him luck in the future. I think he’s a good fighter. He showed good skills and has a big future.” Said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum, “Janibek is the next middleweight superstar. There is no doubt that he is the future of the division. What a sensational performance from a great young man and fighter.” Ortiz Stuns Herring Youth toppled experience, as the 26-year-old Jamaine "The Technician" Ortiz defeated former world champion Jamel "Semper Fi" Herring by 10-round unanimous decision in the lightweight co-feature (96-94 and 97-93 2x).  Ortiz (16-0-1, 8 KOs), from Worcester, Massachusetts, entered the fight as the betting favorite, but , he and Herring (23-4, 11 KOs) fought on mostly even terms in the early going. They clashed heads on multiple occasions, but as the fight wore on, it was Ortiz who was quicker on the trigger. From the seventh round on, it was all Ortiz, who won the final four rounds on all three scorecards to secure the career-defining victory. Herring, who lost his world title to Shakur Stevenson last October, indicated this fight could be his last. “I still got a lot of work to do. I’m just growing and going at the pace I’m going. I gotta learn quick. I gotta pick things up a little bit. I’m not afraid of challenges, and I’m here to prove I’m the best to myself, not anyone else," Ortiz said. “I feel like I could’ve done a lot better, a lot cleaner {of a} performance. I’m hard on myself. I’m always going to be hard on myself. Much respect to a former world champion. That was an achievement I wanted to do in my career.” Herring said, “He had a better output. I wasn’t tired or anything. He just beat me to the draw.... Jamaine was just the better man. Maybe this is it.” Welterweight: Tiger Johnson (4-0, 3 KOs) TKO 3 Agustin Kucharski (8-5-1, 3 KOs), :54. Johnson is making this professional game look easy. The U.S. Olympic star, from Cleveland, rolled through Kucharski, busting up and bruising the Argentinean veteran. Johnson notched a pair of knockdowns, both coming courtesy of his laser-sharp right hand. Kucharski, who turned pro in 2017, had never been stopped as a pro entering this fight. Featherweight: Adam Lopez (16-3, 6 KOs) UD 8 William Encarnacion (19-3, 15 KOs), Scores: 76-74 and 77-74 2x. Lopez, the all-action star from Glendale, California, did not have an easy time of it against Dominican veteran Encarnacion. Lopez was knocked down with right hands in the first and third rounds, but he won the final five rounds on the judges' cards to snatch victory from near-defeat. Lopez entered the fight coming off a disappointing no-contest and left the ring with new life in the featherweight ranks. Junior Lightweight: Karlos Balderas (13-1, 11 KOs) UD 6 Ruben Cervera (13-3, 11 KOs), Scores: 58-54 2x and 57-55. Balderas saw his three-bout knockout streak come to an end, but he knocked down Cervera in the first and third rounds to build an early lead. Cervera swept the final two rounds on all three judges' cards to tighten the margins.  Featherweight: Jessie Magdaleno (29-1, 18 KOs) UD 8 Edy Valencia (19-7-6, 7 KOs), Scores: 80-72 3x. After nearly two years away from the ring, former junior featherweight world champion Magdaleno returned in front of the hometown fans and turned away Mexican veteran Valencia. Magdaleno has now won four straight since losing his title to Isaac Dogboe in April 2018. Featherweight: Duke Ragan (6-0, 1 KO) UD 4 Victorino Gonzalez (5-3, 2 KOs), Scores: 40-36 3x. Ragan, a U.S. Olympic silver medalist, won his second fight in as many months, coasting to a wide points win over Gonzalez. Ragan starred for Team USA at the Tokyo Olympics, and after an extended layoff, he has hit his stride as a pro. Lightweight: Giovanni Cabrera (20-0, 7 KOs) UD 8 Elias Araujo (21-5, 8 KOs), Scores: 79-72, 78-73 and 77-74. The scores were wide, but southpaw stylist Cabrera was forced to work all eight rounds against the hard-charging Araujo. Cabrera had a point deducted for low blows in the sixth and closed with a strong eighth round to earn his second win since signing a promotional contract with Top Rank.

Lightweight: Charlie Sheehy (3-0, 2 KOs) TKO 4 Burnell Jenkins (2-2, 1 KO), 2:58.  Junior Welterweight: Kasir Goldston (4-0-1, 1 KO) DRAW 4 Yaniel Alvarez (2-1-1, 1 KO), Scores: 39-37 Goldston and 38-38 2x.

AWS Amplify + React Native PubSub

12:06:I’ve been learning React Native by building a Todo app. The backend is maintained by AWS Amplify. Today I’m addng PubSub and calling it programmatically from the API on behalf of the user. The tutorial appears to include a manual CLI step so it’s going to be a learning experience. The below is a real time log of my efforts.

Note: Amplify Auth is best served plain. Aka use Javascript, not Typescript if you want to use the out of the box Auth HOC. It’s written in JS and will fail in a Typescript enabled project.

11:40: Looking at the tutorial here to understand whats happening at a high level: https://docs.amplify.aws/lib/pubsub/getting-started/q/platform/js#aws-iot

11:48: Setting up IoT Core per the instructions: https://console.aws.amazon.com/iot/home?region=us-east-1

Pricing is based on how long a device is connected, which is great:

Connectivity pricing: $0.08 (per million minutes of connection)

For example, in the US East (N. Virginia) region you pay $0.042 per device per year (1 connection * $0.08/1,000,000 minutes of connection * 525,600 minutes/year) for 24/7 connectivity. In order to maintain connectivity, devices may send keep-alive (“Ping”) messages at frequencies ranging from 20 minutes to every 30s, and you do not incur any additional cost for these messages. See additional connectivity pricing details >>

11:55: I think you can use the endpoint that’s configured here:

https://console.aws.amazon.com/iot/home?region=us-east-1#/settings

12:06: Setup an “allow all” IoT Policy since I’m just testing this for now.

12:13: Added the policy to my user following these instructions:

Allowing your Amazon Cognito Authenticated Role to access IoT Services

For your Cognito Authenticated Role to be able to interact with AWS IoT it may be necessary to update its permissions, if you haven’t done this before. One way of doing this is to log to your AWS Console, select CloudFormation from the available services. Locate the parent stack of your solution: it is usually named <SERVICE-NAME>-<CREATION_TIMESTAMP>.   Select the Resources tab and tap on AuthRole Physical ID.   The IAM console will be opened in a new tab. Once there, tap on the button Attach Policies, then search AWSIoTDataAccess and AWSIoTConfigAccess, select them and tap on Attach policy. 

I got caught up in something else and never finished this. Sorry :(

Happiest countries in the world 2019

The happiest countries in the world 2019 have been ranked in the latest World Happiness Report. This year, Finland holds on to the top spot.

Happiness is a nebulous thing; hard to grasp and harder to hold onto. Scientists, economists and philosophers have defined it through the ages as a combination of different things, among them health, wealth, companionship and security.

Various indices attempt to rank the happiest countries in the world on an annual basis. The World Happiness Report from the UN’s Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) is particularly interesting as it ranks 156 countries by how happy their citizens perceive themselves to be.

The SDSN employs an international group of economists, neuroscientists and statisticians to survey citizens on their subjective wellbeing to produce a comprehensive annual list of the happiest countries in the world.

How do we assess happiness?

SDSN highlights that its rankings are not an index like the longer running Human Development Index (HDI) and more recent Happy Planet Index (HPI). These are often influenced by sponsors and draw only partly on self-assessment – or make no use of it at all.

SDSN stresses that its findings draw heavily on data from population samples in each country, using a life evaluation survey to produce subjective wellbeing data.

The report principally relies on asking a straightforward, subjective question of more than 1,000 people in more than 150 countries:

Imagine a ladder, with steps numbered from 0 at the bottom to 10 at the top.

The top of the ladder represents the best possible life for you and the bottom of the ladder represents the worst possible life for you. On which step of the ladder would you say you personally feel you stand at this time?

That is not to say the report is without a scientific basis. Economic and social influences are considered along with the survey (namely GDP per capita, social support, life expectancy, freedom to make life choices, generosity and perceptions of corruption), but the focus is on how happy citizens say they are; not how happy statisticians think they should be.

The geography of happiness

Finland takes the top spot once again as the happiest country in the world. Rounding out the rest of the top 10 are countries that have consistently ranked among the happiest. They are in order: Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, New Zealand, Canada and Austria.

The UK is ranked 16th, gaining three spots from 19th last year, while the US is ranked 19th, dropping one spot from last year.

Atlas & Boots/Chartsbin Scandinavia is home to some of happiest countries in the world

The troubled African state of South Sudan is ranked the least happiest country in the world. The rest of the bottom five comprise Central African Republic, Afghanistan, Tanzania and Rwanda.

Unsurprisingly, there is a strong correlation between unhappiness and the poorest and most dangerous countries.

Other key headlines include:

Australia has dropped out of the top 10 happiest countries in the world and now sits as position 11. Austria has gained two spots to take its place.

The 10 countries with the largest declines typically suffered some combination of economic, political and social stresses. The five largest drops since 2005-2008 were in Yemen, India, Syria, Botswana and Venezuela.

When you factor in population growth, world happiness has fallen in recent years, driven by the sustained downward trend in India (133 last year and 140 this year).

Benin was ranked fourth from last in the first World Happiness Report and has since risen 50 places, making it the biggest gainer overall.

There are no superpowers in the top 10 happiest countries in the world indicating that a country’s economic strength does not always correlate with the happiness of its citizens.
