![]() Keep in mind, even while using vagrant destroy, the actual boxes I downloaded in my particular project I still have locally, so if I were to use vagrant up again, it will not have to download them again from the Vagrant Cloud.Vagrant is an open-source utility created by guys in Hashicorp. => default: Destroying VM and associated drives. Dans-MacBook-Pro:MyProj dan$ vagrant destroy -f If I add the –f option, Vagrant will not prompt me for confirmation before destroying. To get my environment back to a clean slate I can use vagrant destroy, which will simply wipe out all my virtual machines that Vagrant was using. For instance, let’s say I make a change in Vagrantfile but I do not like the outcome. In my experience, I use this quite a lot when testing out configurations in a Vagrantfile. I am sure you can guess what this does – destroys your environment. Last but not least, the most destructive of all the Vagrant commands, vagrant destroy. Last login: Fri Sep 14 06:23:18 2012 from you can see, my command prompt changed to “precise64” which is the name of the box I am using in this project. Welcome to your Vagrant-built virtual machine. Run 'do-release-upgrade' to upgrade to it. Here, I use vagrant ssh to connect to my newly created project: Dans-MacBook-Pro:MyProj dan$ vagrant ssh Up until recently, even Windows machines needed ssh installed and configured in order for a user to connect to them. 4 - Vagrant SSHĪlthough Vagrant has support for RDP and PowerShell for connecting to a particular box, it still works best when using ssh. When the command is complete, my Vagrant machines are up and running. This will automatically download and boot any boxes I need that are specified in Vagrantfile. => default: Adding box 'hashicorp/precise64' (v1.1.0) for provider: virtualbox => default: Loading metadata for box 'hashicorp/precise64' => default: Box 'hashicorp/precise64' could not be found. Dans-MacBook-Pro:MyProj dan$ pwdīringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider. ![]() The trick is, I want to ensure I am in the directory where my Vagrant project is in. In order to get a Vagrant box up and running, I simply run vagrant up. => box: Adding box 'bento/centos-7.3' (v201708.22.0) for provider: virtualbox 3 - Vagrant Up => box: Loading metadata for box 'bento/centos-7.3' Here I want to download and install a CentOS box for the virtualbox provider: Dans-MacBook-Pro:GitHub dan$ vagrant box add bento/centos-7.3 -provider=virtualbox If I want to add a box, logically I use vagrant box add. For instance, to view the boxes I have installed on my machine I would run vagrant box list: Dans-MacBook-Pro:GitHub dan$ vagrant box list This includes adding, removing, listing and updating. The vagrant box command allows the user to manage the boxes on their local machine. Just like that I have enough to boot up a Vagrant box on my local machine. `` for more information on using Vagrant.įinally let’s look into the Vagrantfile, which as we see just specifies the box I will be using: Dans-MacBook-Pro:MyProj dan$ cat Vagrantfile The comments in the Vagrantfile as well as documentation on Ready to `vagrant up` your first virtual environment! Please read Here, I will use vagrant init and the –m option which means I will not add any helper comments into my Vagrantfile: Dans-MacBook-Pro:MyProj dan$ vagrant init -m hashicorp/precise64Ī `Vagrantfile` has been placed in this directory. To do this I simply run vagrant init with the box address.įirst, I will create a directory: Dans-MacBook-Pro:GitHub dan$ mkdir MyProj In this example, I want to create a very basic Vagrantfile based on a box used from Vagrant Cloud. It will include things like the boxes used, networking, CPU and memory, providers used, shell scripts to run for provisioning among others. ![]() ![]() A Vagrantfile is basically a configuration file that describes an environment. To understand Vagrant, you first need to understand one of the basic building blocks – Vagrantfile. The Vagrant CLI is very easy to use and provides users a way to manage their Vagrant environment efficiently. Vagrant is a favorite among DevOps professionals as it provides a great way to great re-usable and identical test environments. In this article, I will point out five commands that every Vagrant user needs to know. ![]() Then, in June 1992, during a trip to an elementary school, Quayle corrected a 12-year-old boy who had correctly spelled “potato,” adding an “e” to the word. In response, late-night comic David Letterman looked straight into the camera and told Quayle to pay attention. In 1992 he attacked television character Murphy Brown, an unmarried news anchor, for having a child out of wedlock. Quayle himself perpetuated his reputation as a dour lightweight. When asked about this, Clinton laughed and said, “ That’s got every fire hydrant in America worried.” You say ‘potato,’ he says ‘potatoe’ When Bush ran for reelection in 1992, Quayle said he was going to be the campaign’s “pit bull” against Democrat Bill Clinton. Late-night comedian Johnny Carson then joked, “That’s the way to get through to Quayle – make fun of him on the comics page.” “It’s well known that Garry Trudeau has a personal vendetta against me,” he said. ![]() When Doonesbury poked fun of Quayle, however, Quayle complained. When Doonesbury comic strip artist Garry Trudeau wrote a strip that took readers on a tour of President Reagan’s brain and found only marbles, Reagan responded by saying, “Cartoonists occupy a special place in my heart. He could have restricted the damage of Bentsen’s comeback with self-deprecating humor – like President Ronald Reagan once did. Secondly, Quayle made the worst of a bad moment on national television. One of the lessons of the Quayle-Bentsen exchange is listen to your advisers. Shepard Sherbell/CORBIS SABA/Corbis via Getty Image Quayle never recovered 5, 1988, debate moderator Tom Brokaw questioned whether Quayle was qualified to be vice president, Quayle answered, “I have as much experience … as Jack Kennedy did when he sought the presidency.”īush and Quayle at the 1988 Republican National Convention. Unlike Quayle, Kennedy was a war hero during World War II, had won a Pulitzer Prize and had a national reputation when he entered the presidential race. Quayle’s handlers told him not to bring up the comparison during his only debate with the Democratic vice presidential candidate, Lloyd Bentsen. Kennedy, who also had served as a congressman and senator before running for president in 1960. Bush selected the little-known 41-year-old Senator Dan Quayle of Indiana as his running mate, the youthful-looking Quayle tried to deflect concerns about his age and inexperience by comparing himself to John F.

If you have never experienced this you cannot even begin to imagine how horrible that feeling is. Even if it doesn’t stop them completely I can live with the lighter days. I usually can’t run for 3-4 days per month on my period. But it has actually been tolerable! I went to the store & was not afraid of leaking. I have been taking Amethyst for almost 4 weeks now. I don’t like taking bc as the hormones make me crazy. My periods are so bad I’m afraid to stand up or sleep for at least 2 days every month. They left a few smaller ones as they said they would not be an issue as I should go into menopause by the time they might have grown so the dr did not perform a hysterectomy. I have fibroids & had several removed 5 years ago. "I’m 48 & suffered from HORRIBLE periods for years. I am lucky that I found something good for me." The other secret is that this BC is just not right for every body and finding the right fit takes trial and error. ![]() Water is recommended, maybe even some food. The secret is to really stick to one time a day, especially with the lower hormone dose. I'm very happy and will continue with amethyst. Now in my second year, I very rarely have spotting. I have occasionally had almost a very light period at times the first year, mostly during times of high stress. Oddly, I had no spotting until 5 months in. I switched from a monthly BC period to amethyst because not having a period would fit my lifestyle. I have not noticed changes in my physical shape over the years since it has been a part of my life for a long time. ![]() I have taken BC since I was 19 in various forms.

Unable to stand by, Gun defies her government and leaks the memo to the press, beginning an explosive chain of events that will ignite an international firestorm, expose a vast political conspiracy, and put Gun and her family in harm's way. Based on true events, 'Official Secrets' tells the story of Katharine Gun (Keira Knightley), a British intelligence specialist who received a shocking memo in 2003: the United States is enlisting Britain's help in blackmailing United Nations Security Council members so they vote in favour of the Iraq War. That’s interesting for the public to see a group of journalists trying to actually grapple with whether it’s true or whether it isn’t.She risked everything to stop an unjust war. “And within fake news, I find it interesting just seeing the processes that (the journalists are) going through in order to try to fact check, and try to make sure that the story is real. I think this film is a celebration of that and it’s very much putting that at the forefront. “Arguably, it’s the investigative form of journalism that as a society we should be protecting the most. “The reason newspapers exist is to hold governments and hold power accountable,” she says. “It’s interesting when you get a story that kind of as an audience member makes you question the world around you to the extent that I felt.”Īsked about the recent police raids on Australian journalists by the Australian Federal Police, Knightley says she sees Official Secrets as a “celebration of investigative journalism, which is obviously under threat”. Knightley and Indira Varma star in Official Secrets. When I was reading the script I thought, ‘This is in one way a historic piece and in another way it has so completely shaped the world that we live in, the discourse, the media, the politics that we are living within today. “All of it is very relevant to the world that we find ourselves in today. “As citizens, I think still that question of government accountability is there,” Knightley says. Matt Smith plays British journalist Martin Bright in the film alongside Matthew Goode as journalist Peter Beaumont and Ralph Fiennes as prominent QC Ben Emmerson. ![]() I think you still feel the impact of that today.” I think that hugely changed the way that we as a generation, perhaps - I can’t speak for my entire generation, but (for me and my group of friends - at least saw politicians. ![]() ![]() What will happen now?

It’s a warm June day in London and she’s heavily pregnant but relaxed in a floaty floral dress (she gave birth to her second daughter, Delilah, in September). Knightley is talking to Insider at London’s trendy Soho Hotel. I don’t mind giving it whilst I’m more than happy if people disagree with me. ![]() “But, ultimately, if I’m asked my opinion, of course I have opinions. Sometimes I’ll be completely silent and occasionally I won’t. “Ultimately, sometimes I feel like you might as well (say something). I can say something and people can hate me for it. I can not say anything and people can hate me for it. “I think I learned that actually my head is above the parapet, whatever. “I’ve been in the public eye for a very long time,” she says.

Matt Murdock, the blind vigilante with heightened senses, experiences life through enhanced hearing and touch, and can feel the presence of others through the vibrations of their heart. The pulsing beat of this theme drives through the entire intro, allowing us a glimpse not only into the show’s dark and grounded nature, but also providing us with Daredevil’s own perspective. If “you’ve got time”, give this theme a listen! Regina Spektor wrote this song after thinking long and hard about what it would be like to live in prison, but she still manages to make the piece fun while hinting at the struggles these inmates will face. Alluding to animals trapped in cages, the song works as an obvious metaphor, but also hints at the show’s themes of redemption. This intro song just “lets you in”.Ĭomposed by Regina Spektor specifically for the show, “You’ve Got Time” is an excellent theme for this comedy/drama about a female prison. Beyond foreshadowing and highlighting key themes of the show, the song also stands well on its own it’s relaxing and gentle, easing viewers into the drama that is Bloodline, where other shows might try to entice with more flair and excitement. While the music is serene and accompanied by beautiful shots of the ocean and the Florida Keys, the lyrics hint at something much deeper. Titled “The Water Lets You In”, this unsettling song at the beginning of the show is calming and folksy, but has clear dark undertones. This intro theme may come late to us in the first episode, but it’s certainly worth the wait. The song is beautiful, inspiring, and mysterious, not unlike the OA itself. Soaring and majestic, this violin-heavy theme serves to accompany the show’s more mystical moments, and is also occasionally used throughout the show as Prairie Johnson plays the theme herself. While the OA doesn’t have conventional opening credits with a song at the beginning of each episode, we feel that this piece serves as the show’s main theme. And we’re so glad they did! This jazzy tune is addictive and filled with so much character that we couldn’t imagine BoJack Horseman without it. \When the show creators approached Patrick about doing the intro for their new show, he sent back the test track which they ended up using. Composed by Patrick Carney, the drummer for the Black Keys, and his uncle, the song was originally meant to be a simple test for new equipment that the two had bought. Much like the show itself, this theme came by almost by accident and without any real meaning. This unique intro song is clever and catchy, but that doesn’t explain why you wouldn’t just look away and go do anything else. The best part about this intro is that there are different lyrics for every two episodes which change depending on what’s happening in the plot, and Count Olaf will narrate based on which character he’s playing. ![]() Broadway and TV star Neil Patrick Harris sings the theme song for this unfortunate Netflix Original as the villainous Count Olaf.

WAVE was created from a partnership between Microsoft Windows and IBM in 1992, so WAV files played back natively on Windows machines. AIFF was created by Macintosh in 1988, allowing full studio-quality audio recording and playback on Apple computers. So what’s the difference between the two? It mainly boils down to history. ![]() Just like WAV, AIFF also stores data in uncompressed, lossless format, meaning you get no quality loss, just pure sonic happiness. Offering sample rate and bit depth options just like WAV files, AIFF registers the audio waveform as accurate samples (slices) using PCM to offer the highest possible audio recording quality and sound replication. This provides enormous versatility allowing for superb editing and manipulation.ĪIFF ( Audio Interchange File Format) works identically: it provides studio-grade audio recording and playback. WAV files are also uncompressed, meaning that the data is stored as-is in full original format that doesn’t require decoding. So what gets captured and recorded is the closest mathematical/digital representation of the original audio waveform-no noticeable audio quality loss happens in the process. It’s a lossless file format, meaning that there is no data loss whatsoever. WAV uses PCM ( Pulse Code Modulation) to encode the data by slicing it into small chunks to provide the highest quality possible. ![]() WAV files capture and recreate an original audio waveform at the highest quality without affecting or altering the sonic characteristics of the sound in any way. Despite decades of progress, it still maintains its position as one of the world’s leading pro audio formats. WAV was one of the first digital audio formats, and quickly became a staple across all platforms. Waveform audio files (also called WAV files) are one of the more popular digital audio formats and a gold standard in studio recording. So let’s dive right into what the four standard audio formats are and when to use which one. With time, four contenders have become the golden standards you find everywhere today. New formats appear and disappear to solve different problems and offer varying benefits. What was once a single standardized audio format, quickly grew into a plethora of options. Today, we focus on the importance of choosing the right audio format, what they mean, and when you should use each one. Each one of them is important, so I recommend you check out Griffin Brown’s great explanation of sample rate and bit depth in his Basics of Digital Audio article. When bouncing, you’re presented with multiple options: audio format, sample rate, bit depth, and sometimes even normalization. Unlike a session file, an audio bounce means you can send the audio file to your grandma and know that she’ll be able to listen to it without any special equipment. It’s the process of down-mixing all of your tracks into a two-channel (left speaker and right speaker) audio source. ![]() What is bouncing in audio?īouncing is the process of rendering your entire project as a single stereo audio file that can be played on any device. You could send your session file, but what if they don’t have your DAW? And on the off chance they can open the file, if they’re missing just one plug-in you used, your song won’t sound the same. You want to send your friend your latest song. In this article, you’ll learn the difference between the four popular audio formats, along with use cases for which one to choose when. But before you can bounce it, you’re met with the ultimate head-scratcher: which audio format should you choose? WAV? AIFF? MP3? M4A? You’re finally ready to share your song with mom or to send it off to the studio for mastering. You’ve spent weeks working on the ultimate song, polishing the arrangement, and perfecting the mix. |
