§ 2. Nature and the Natural Man.

If territorial expansion and the development of geographical science are to be noted in studying the literature of travel, the general background of eighteenth-century thought must not be forgotten. The so-called rationalism of the French, with its tendency to destroy traditional distinctions, to suppress imagination, and yet to end in a kind of deism, is too large a subject for more than passing notice. On the other hand, we may dwell for a moment upon the sentimental treatment of external nature in Rousseau, and upon his conception, in part derived from early American travellers, of the natural man in a terrestrial paradise. Such a being could, in fact, exist only in a tropical or sub-tropical environment such as the favoured regions in which the first American explorers and missionaries encountered the natives. Yet the transference of the idea to the Indians of North America was easy in an age when popular geography was vague; and the faith of the Jesuits in the potential goodness of the savage doubtless helped to propagate a general belief that the aborigines were noble. The idea, which seems rather to have come from the travellers than from Rousseau, but possibly is dormant in almost every educated mind, is well established in American literature from William Bartram to Fenimore Cooper. The related notion of social equality in a state of nature has a more solid basis. As in Crèvecurs American Farmer, it grows out of the facts of life in a new agricultural settlement.

An opposite conception was also prevalent. Side by side with the ideal of an eloquent stoic, artless, magnanimous by nature, we findoften in the same book of travelsthe cruel savage as he is, vengeful and impure. Montaigne, indeed, a predecessor of Rousseau in admiring the unlettered aborigines, had held that the European surpassed the savage in barbarity; yet when he turns from the ideal to the actual, there is but a step between Montaigne and Hobbes, who declares the life of nature to be nasty, solitary, brutish, and short. And Hobbes merely anticipates Voltaire and Pauw, whose unedifying pictures of American natives were put together from the accounts of travellers. We have, then, in the literature of Europe the same opposition between observed fact and preconceived notion that we meet in Bartram or Carver. On the one hand, wer have La Jeune Indienne of Chamfort, presented at the Théâtre Français in 1764, or Rousseaus Chanson des Sauvages and Danse Canadienne; on the other, a debate among the learned on the question whether the villainy of the Indians was original, or had been acquired through contact with civilization. In De lAmérique et des Américains, published at Berlin in 1771, the anonymous author attacks the theories of Pauw, and vigorously contends that the savages were evil enough to begin with.

Man in a state of nature suggests solitude; and solitude, with its charms for the eighteenth-century poet, suggests the so-called feeling for nature that of late has been much discussed by literary students in dealing with the period. Though the point is not always made clear, the actual topic under discussion is the Neoplatonic doctrine of divine immanence. To a man who believes in this, the world, with its plants and animals, is no longer a work of art, shaped by the fingers of a Master-Artist; it is filled with a subtle spirit which is interfused in all material and living things, rolls through them, and is their principle of movement and pulsation. In one form or another, this notion of immanence, familiar in the earlier poems of Wordsworth, characterizes the reaction against the age of reason, and may be found in many observers of nature in America. Its origin is obscure; nor can one readily see why Neoplatonic ideas should cast a spell over minds so diverse as those of Rousseau, Goethe, Wordsworth, and the Quaker Bartram. The suggestion has been made that the writings of the mystic Boehme had an influence upon the Society of Friends. But the sources of the feeling for nature are likely to have been as various as the evidence of it in American travellers.

# Using the DbgRpc Tool

##

The DbgRpc tool (Dbgrpc.exe) is located in the root directory of the Debugging Tools for Windows installation and must be started in a Command Prompt window. Double-clicking the icon will not start this tool.

The Command Prompt window must be running under an account with administrative privileges on the local computer, or with domain administrative privileges.

DbgRpc makes no calls to any system services (such as LSASS). This makes it useful for debugging even if a system service has crashed, as long as the kernel is still running.

### Using DbgRpc on a Remote Computer

DbgRpc can also be used to examine information from a remote machine. For this to work, the remote machine must be able to accept remote connections and authenticate remote users. If the remote machine's RPCSS (RPC Endpoint Mapper) service has crashed, DbgRpc will not be able to work. Administrative or domain administrative privileges on the remote machine are required.

The **-s** command-line option is used to specify the server name, and the **-p** parameter is used to specify the transport protocol. Both TCP and named pipe protocols are available. TCP is the recommended protocol; it should work in almost every situation.

Here is an example:

```console
G:\>dbgrpc -s MyServer -p ncacn_ip_tcp -l -P 1e8 -L 0.1
Getting remote cell info ...
Endpoint
Status: Active
Protocol Sequence: LRPC
Endpoint name: OLE18
```

### DbgRpc Command Line

For a description of the full command syntax, see [**DbgRpc Command-Line Options**](dbgrpc-command-line-options.md).

Lesson: Introduction to Release Pipelines

**Overview**

A release pipeline is a process used by software developers to automate the deployment of software changes from one environment to another. This process ensures that all changes made to the software are thoroughly tested and validated before being released to the public. In this lesson, we will learn about the different stages involved in a release pipeline and how they work together to ensure a successful deployment.

**Objectives**

By the end of this lesson, you should be able to:

1. Define what a release pipeline is and its importance in software development.
2. Identify the different stages involved in a release pipeline.
3. Explain how each stage contributes to the overall success of the release.
4. Create a simple release pipeline template.

**Section 1: What is a Release Pipeline?**

A release pipeline is a series of steps that automates the process of releasing software changes into different environments. These environments could be development, test, UAT, load test, SIT, or staging environments. The goal of a release pipeline is to ensure that all changes made to the software are thoroughly tested and validated before being released to the public.

**Section 2: Stages of a Release Pipeline**

A typical release pipeline consists of several stages, each representing a different deployment environment. These stages include:

1. Development: This is the first stage where developers build and test the software changes.
2. Test: This stage involves running automated tests on the software changes to ensure that they meet the required quality standards.
3. UAT: In this stage, users test the software changes to ensure that they meet their expectations.
4. Load Test: This stage involves testing the software changes under heavy load to ensure that it can handle high traffic volumes.
5. SIT: This stage involves testing the software changes in a simulated production environment to identify any potential issues.
6. Staging: This is the final stage where the software changes are deployed to a pre-production environment before being released to the public.

**Section 3: How do the stages contribute to the overall success of the release?**

Each stage of the release pipeline plays a crucial role in ensuring the successful deployment of the software changes. Here's how each stage contributes to the overall success of the release:

1. Development: This stage ensures that the software changes are built and tested by the developers before moving to the next stage.
2. Test: This stage runs automated tests on the software changes to ensure that they meet the required quality standards.
3. UAT: This stage involves users testing the software changes to ensure that they meet their expectations.
4. Load Test: This stage tests the software changes under heavy load to ensure that it can handle high traffic volumes.
5. SIT: This stage identifies any potential issues in a simulated production environment.
6. Staging: This stage deploys the software changes to a pre-production environment before being released to the public.

**Section 4: Creating a Simple Release Pipeline Template**

Here's a simple release pipeline template that you can use to get started:

```
stages:
  - development
  - test
  - uat
  - load_test
  - sit
  - staging

environments:
  - dev
  - qa
  - uat
  - prod

pipeline:
  - stage: development
    environment: dev
  - stage: test
    environment: qa
  - stage: uat
    environment: uat
  - stage: load_test
    environment: prod
  - stage: sit
    environment: prod
  - stage: staging
    environment: prod

```

In this template, we have defined six stages and six environments. Each stage is mapped to an environment, and the pipeline starts with the development stage in the dev environment. The pipeline progresses through each stage until it reaches the staging stage in the prod environment.

**Conclusion**

In conclusion, a release pipeline is a crucial process in software development that ensures that all changes made to the software are thoroughly tested and validated before being released to the public. By understanding the different stages involved in a release pipeline and how each stage contributes to the overall success of the release, you can create a successful release pipeline template that meets your organization's needs.

Lesson: Probability

Introduction:
Probability is a branch of mathematics that deals with the study of likelihood or chance of an event occurring. It is used in various fields such as gambling, finance, and statistics. In this lesson, we will learn about probability and its applications in real-life situations.

Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes. It is represented by the symbol P(A), where A is the event. The probability of an event can range from 0 (impossible) to 1 (certain).

Example: Flipping a coin has two possible outcomes - heads or tails. The probability of getting heads is 1/2, and the probability of getting tails is also 1/2.

Section 2: Questions and Answers

1. What is the probability of rolling a six on a fair six-sided die?
Answer: The probability of rolling a six on a fair six-sided die is 1/6, as there is one favorable outcome (rolling a six) out of six possible outcomes (rolling a one, two, three, four, five, or six).

2. What is the probability of drawing a heart from a deck of cards?
Answer: The probability of drawing a heart from a deck of cards is 1/4, as there are 13 hearts and 52 cards in total.

3. What is the probability of picking a red ball from a jar containing 10 red balls and 10 blue balls?
Answer: The probability of picking a red ball is 10/20, as there are 10 favorable outcomes (picking a red ball) out of 20 possible outcomes (picking either a red or blue ball).

Section 3: Practical Examples

Example 1: A box contains 80 chocolates, and 20 of them are almonds. If you pick a chocolate at random, what is the probability of getting an almond?
Answer: The probability of getting an almond is 20/80, which simplifies to 1/4 or 0.25.

Example 2: A jar contains 100 jelly beans - 20 are red, 50 are green, and the rest are orange. If you pick a jelly bean at random, what is the probability of getting an orange jelly bean?
Answer: The probability of getting an orange jelly bean is 25/100, which simplifies to 1/4 or 0.25.

Section 4: Real-World Scenarios

Example: A basketball team has a 70% chance of winning a game against their rival team. However, during the game, one of their star players gets injured and cannot continue playing. What is the probability of the team winning the game now?
Answer: The probability of the team winning the game without their star player is lower than 70%, as they are now at a disadvantage. The exact probability depends on various factors such as the quality of the remaining players and the opponent's team.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about probability and its applications in various scenarios.

Q:

MongoDb-Node:Agregation node-mongo query for chat

im new on mongo and want to get data for a chat, let me explain.
i have a colection of messages:
_id:id
viewed:boolean
created_at:date
text:String
receiver:ObjectId
emitter:ObjectId

i want all the list of messager for a certain emitter and receiver order by the date (like a normal chat)
i have tryed aggregation like this:
db.messages.aggregate(
   [

      {
  $lookup: {
     from: "users",
     localField: "emitter",    // field in the orders collection
     foreignField: "_id",  // field in the items collection
     as: "fromItems"
  }
   },

   {
    $match: {

        'emitter':ObjectId("5c8917b4ef9ebf2e608c68dc")
    }
    }
   ,

    {
         $addFields: {
           ids: { _id: "$_id" } ,
           created: { created_at: "$created_at" }
         }
     },

 {
   $group:
     {
       _id: { tot:["$emitter", "$receiver"] },
       text: { $addToSet:"$text"},

     }
 },
 {
     $sort: {created_at: 1}

 }
   ]
)

But this gives me an array of messages only of a certain emitter and dont give me the date or the viewed data.
Im really new on mongo and node so if someone can help me with a explain will be great.
Thanks for reading and sory for the bad english

A:

You must include date or the viewed data in $group stage.
Try with this.
{
 $group:
 {
   _id: { tot:["$emitter", "$receiver"] },
   text: { $addToSet:{text:"$text",created:"$created.created_at"}},
   created_at:{$last:"$created.created_at"}
 }
},

Why there is ids and need for tot fields and created as a object ??

Lesson: MongoDB Aggregation Framework for Chat Messages

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn how to use the MongoDB Aggregation Framework to retrieve chat messages based on a specific emitter and receiver. We will also learn how to group messages by their total sender and receiver, add fields to the message document, sort messages by date, and filter messages by a specific emitter.

Prerequisites:
- Basic knowledge of MongoDB
- Basic knowledge of JavaScript

Lesson Outline:
1. Introduction
2. Overview of the Aggregation Framework
3. Example Use Case: Chat Messages
4. Step-by-Step Guide to Building the Pipeline
5. Analyzing the Results
6. Conclusion

Lesson:
1. Introduction
In this lesson, we will learn how to use the MongoDB Aggregation Framework to retrieve chat messages based on a specific emitter and receiver. We will also learn how to group messages by their total sender and receiver, add fields to the message document, sort messages by date, and filter messages by a specific emitter.

2. Overview of the Aggregation Framework
The MongoDB Aggregation Framework is a powerful tool that allows us to perform complex data analysis on collections. It works by applying a set of pipeline stages to each document in the collection, producing a new set of documents as output. The pipeline stages can include filtering, sorting, grouping, projecting, and computing values.

3. Example Use Case: Chat Messages
Let's say we have a collection of chat messages, where each message contains the following fields:
- _id: unique identifier for the message
- viewed: boolean indicating whether the message has been viewed or not
- created_at: date when the message was created
- text: text of the message
- receiver: ObjectId of the receiver
- emitter: ObjectId of the emitter

We want to retrieve all messages for a certain emitter and receiver, ordered by date. Additionally, we want to group messages by their total sender and receiver, add fields to the message document, and filter messages by a specific emitter.

4. Step-by-Step Guide to Building the Pipeline
Step 1: Import the necessary modules
```javascript
const MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;
const assert = require('assert');
```

Step 2: Connect to the MongoDB server
```javascript
const url = 'mongodb://localhost:27017';
const dbName = 'test';
const db = MongoClient.connect(url, {useNewUrlParser: true}, function(err, client) {
  assert.equal(null, err);
  console.log("Connected successfully to server");
});
```

Step 3: Define the aggregate pipeline
```javascript
const aggregate = [
  {
    $lookup: {
      from: "users",
      localField: "emitter",
      foreignField: "_id",
      as: "fromItems"
    }
  },
  {
    $match: {
      "emitter": ObjectId("5c8917b4ef9ebf2e608c68dc")
    }
  },
  {
    $addFields: {
      ids: { _id: "$_id" },
      created: { created_at: "$created_at" }
    }
  },
  {
    $group: {
      _id: { tot: ["$emitter", "$receiver"] },
      text: { $addToSet: "$text" },
    }
  },
  {
    $sort: { created_at: 1 }
  }
];
```

Step 4: Execute the aggregate command
```javascript
db.collection.aggregate(aggregate, (err, result) => {
  assert.equal(null, err);
  console.log("Result: ", result);
});
```

5. Analyzing the Results
The result will be an array of messages that meet the specified criteria. Each message will contain the following fields:
- _id: unique identifier for the message
- viewed: boolean indicating whether the message has been viewed or not
- created_at: date when the message was created
- text: text of the message
- receiver: ObjectId of the receiver
- emitter: ObjectId of the emitter
- ids: array containing the _id of the sender and receiver
- created: date when the message was created
- text: text of the message

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned how to use the MongoDB Aggregation Framework to retrieve chat messages based on a specific emitter and receiver. We also learned how to group messages by their total sender and receiver, add fields to the message document, sort messages by date, and filter messages by a specific emitter. This skill can be applied to other scenarios where we need to perform complex data analysis on collections.

Lesson: Introduction to Computer Programming

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts

Computer programming is the process of designing and writing instructions that enable computers to perform specific tasks. These instructions are written in a language that computers can understand, called a programming language. There are many different programming languages, each with its own syntax and structure.

Programming involves breaking down a problem into smaller, more manageable parts, and then creating a set of instructions that will solve the problem. This process is called algorithmic thinking.

## Section 2: Questions and Answers

**Question:** What is an algorithm?
**Answer:** An algorithm is a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem or achieving a specific task. It is a set of instructions that can be followed to complete a task.

**Question:** Why is algorithmic thinking important in computer programming?
**Answer:** Algorithmic thinking is important because it allows programmers to break down complex problems into smaller, more manageable pieces. This enables them to create efficient and effective solutions that can be scaled up to handle larger problems.

**Question:** What are some examples of programming languages?
**Answer:** Some examples of programming languages include Python, Java, C++, and HTML.

## Section 3: Definitions and Practical Examples

**Definition:** A variable is a named storage location that can hold a value. Variables can be used to store values such as numbers, text, or even other variables.

**Practical Example:** In the following Python code, the variable `name` is defined and assigned the value "John":

```python
name = "John"
print(name)
```

This code will output the string "John" to the console.

**Definition:** A function is a reusable block of code that can be called by other parts of a program. Functions can be used to encapsulate common code blocks and make them easier to reuse.

**Practical Example:** In the following Python code, the function `say_hello` takes one argument (the name of a person) and outputs the string "Hello, " followed by the argument:

```python
def say_hello(name):
    print("Hello,", name)
say_hello("John")
```

This code will output the string "Hello, John" to the console.

## Section 4: Real-World Scenarios

**Scenario:** You want to write a program that calculates the area of a circle.

**Solution:** To calculate the area of a circle, you can use the formula:

Area = π * radius^2

Here's an example of how you could implement this in Python:

```python
import math

def circle_area(radius):
    area = math.pi * (radius ** 2)
    return area
```

In this example, we first import the `math` module to access the value of π. Then, we define a function called `circle_area` that takes one argument (the radius of the circle) and returns the calculated area.

## Glossary

- Programming language: A set of instructions and commands that can be used to create software programs.
- Algorithm: A step-by-step procedure for solving a problem or achieving a specific task.
- Variable: A named storage location that can hold a value.
- Function: A reusable block of code that can be called by other parts of a program.
- Encapsulation: The process of hiding the details of a program's implementation and providing a simplified interface for users to interact with.
- Pi: A mathematical constant that represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.

## Conclusion

In this lesson, we introduced the concept of computer programming and explored some of its key components. We learned about programming languages, algorithmic thinking, variables, functions, and real-world scenarios. By understanding these concepts, we can begin to create our own software programs and solve complex problems.

Lesson: Superconductivity
===============

Introduction
------------

Superconductivity is a phenomenon where certain materials exhibit zero electrical resistance and expulsion of magnetic fields when cooled below a critical temperature. This allows for the efficient transmission of electricity without energy loss. In this lesson, we will explore the basics of superconductivity, its applications, and the science behind it.

1. What is Superconductivity?
---------------------------

Superconductivity is a state in which a material can conduct electricity without any resistance. This means that an electric current can flow through the material without losing any energy as heat. This property makes superconductors extremely useful for applications such as power transmission and magnetic levitation.

2. How does Superconductivity work?
----------------------------------

Superconductivity works by allowing electrons to form pairs called Cooper pairs. These pairs can move through the material without any resistance because they are not affected by the normal forces that would normally slow them down. This phenomenon is explained by the BCS theory, which states that at low temperatures, electrons can form pairs due to an attractive force mediated by lattice vibrations.

3. Applications of Superconductivity
-------------------------------------

Superconductivity has many practical applications, including:

- Magnetic levitation: Superconducting magnets can levitate objects above a track, allowing for frictionless transportation.
- Power transmission: Superconducting cables can transmit electricity without energy loss, making them ideal for long-distance power transmission.
- Medical imaging: Superconducting magnets are used in MRI machines to generate strong magnetic fields needed for high-resolution imaging.

4. Science behind Superconductivity
------------------------------------

The science behind superconductivity involves the behavior of electrons in a material. When a material becomes superconducting, its electrons form pairs called Cooper pairs. These pairs can move through the material without any resistance because they are not affected by the normal forces that would normally slow them down.

Conclusion
----------

In conclusion, superconductivity is a fascinating phenomenon that has many practical applications. By understanding the science behind it, we can appreciate the importance of this field of study and its potential for future advancements.

text: Christmas Tree Dunes on Hold Until Corps of Engineers Meet. Officials from Bradley Beach and the federal Army Corps of Engineers are to meet today, Jan. 9, to discuss the corps’ ongoing replenishment of ocean beaches in the area.. Richard Bianchi, head of the Bradley Beach public works department, expects to have a better timetable on the replenishment after he meets with the Army Corps.. Because of the replenishment, Bradley Beach’s use of Christmas trees to shore up dunes on the beachfront is on hold at least for the time being, Bianchi said on Tuesday.. “We’re not allowed to put anything on the beach until the beach-replenishment is complete,” Bianchi said. “I’ve got a lot of people want to bring me trees.”. An estimated 3,000 to 4,000 trees from last year were buried on the beach in dunes, Bianchi said.

Lesson: The Importance of Beach Replenishment

Introduction:
Beach replenishment is an important process that helps to maintain and restore the health of our coastlines. In this lesson, we will learn about the reasons why beach replenishment is necessary, the methods used to conduct it, and the benefits it provides.

Section 1: Why is Beach Replenishment Necessary?
Beach replenishment is necessary for several reasons. One reason is that natural processes such as erosion, storms, and sea-level rise can cause beaches to disappear or become unstable. When this happens, it can lead to property damage, loss of habitat for wildlife, and other negative impacts. Beach replenishment helps to counteract these processes by restoring sand to the beach and stabilizing it.

Another reason for beach replenishment is that many coastal communities rely on tourism and recreation for their economy. A healthy beach is essential for attracting visitors and supporting local businesses. Without beach replenishment, these communities could suffer economically.

Finally, beach replenishment is necessary because it helps to protect our coastlines from future storms and flooding. By building up the beach, we can reduce the risk of flooding and erosion during extreme weather events.

Section 2: How is Beach Replenishment Conducted?
There are several methods used to conduct beach replenishment. One common method is to pump sand from offshore borrow areas onto the beach using specialized equipment. Another method is to dredge sand from the ocean floor and then pump it onto the beach. Still another method involves using large trucks to haul sand from nearby sources and dump it on the beach.

The specific method used for a particular project depends on factors such as the size and shape of the beach, the amount of sand needed, and the available resources.

Section 3: What are the Benefits of Beach Replenishment?
Beach replenishment provides many benefits to both the environment and human communities. Some of these benefits include:

- Protecting property and infrastructure: By restoring and stabilizing beaches, we can reduce the risk of property damage and erosion-related infrastructure failures.
- Preserving habitats for wildlife: Many animals rely on beaches and coastal ecosystems for food, shelter, and breeding. Beach replenishment helps to preserve these habitats and the species that depend on them.
- Supporting local economies: Healthy beaches are essential for attracting tourists and supporting businesses that rely on beach tourism.
- Reducing the risk of flooding and storm damage: By building up the beach, we can reduce the risk of flooding and erosion during extreme weather events.

Conclusion:
Beach replenishment is an important process that helps to maintain and restore the health of our coastlines. By understanding the reasons why it is necessary, the methods used to conduct it, and the benefits it provides, we can appreciate the importance of this work and support efforts to protect our beaches and coastal communities.
