Move the plug-ins temporarily from this location to any other folder and check if Premiere Pro is working properly without the third-party plug-ins. If the issue is resolved, then update the plug-ins, or contact the plug-in vendor for a compatible version.
But mixed into the chapter there are more questionable assertions. Martin says that Boolean flag arguments are bad practice, which I agree with, because an unadorned true or false in source code is opaque and unclear versus an explicit IS_SUITE or IS_NOT_SUITE... but Martin's reasoning is rather that a Boolean argument means that a function does more than one thing, which it shouldn't.
torrent working effectively with legacy code
And then it gets weird. Martin says that functions should not be large enough to hold nested control structures (conditionals and loops); equivalently, they should not be indented to more than two levels. He says blocks should be one line long, consisting probably of a single function call. He says that an ideal function has zero arguments (but still no side effects?), and that a function with just three arguments is confusing and difficult to test. Most bizarrely, Martin asserts that an ideal function is two to four lines of code long. This piece of advice is actually placed at the start of the chapter. It's the first and most important rule:
First, the class name, SetupTeardownIncluder, is dreadful. It is, at least, a noun phrase, as all class names should be. But it's a nouned verb phrase, the strangled kind of class name you invariably get when you're working in strictly object-oriented code, where everything has to be a class, but sometimes the thing you really need is just one simple gosh-danged function.
How would you unit-test this method? Well, you can't. It's not a unit. It can't be separated from the side-effects it has on other parts of the code. (And what's up with the indentation? And where are the danged braces?)
There is at least one questionable aspect of this code which isn't Martin's fault: the fact that pageData's content gets destroyed. Unlike the member variables (isSuite, testPage, newPageContent and pageCrawler), pageData is not actually ours to modify. It is originally passed in to the top-level public render methods by an external caller. The render method does a lot of work and ultimately returns a String of HTML. However, during this work, as a side effect, pageData is destructively modified (see updatePageContent). Surely it would be preferable to create a brand new PageData object with our desired modifications, and leave the original untouched? If the caller tries to use pageData for something else afterwards, they might be very surprised about what's happened to its content. But this is how the original code behaved prior to the refactoring, and the behaviour could be intentional. Martin has preserved the behaviour, though he has buried it very effectively.
The book focuses on Java code, to the exclusion of other programming languages, even other object-oriented programming languages. Java was popular at the time, and if you're writing a book like this, it makes sense to pick a single well-known language and stick with it, and Java is still very popular and may still be a strong choice for this purpose. But the book's overall use of Java is very dated.
There's a chapter on unit testing. There's a lot of good, basic, stuff in this chapter, about how unit tests should be fast, independent and repeatable, about how unit tests enable more confident refactoring of source code, about how unit tests should be about as voluminous as the code under test, but strictly simpler to read and comprehend. But then he shows us a unit test with what he says is too much detail:
(And since we're here, this, the original unrefactored code, is a fine demonstration of the drawbacks of unadorned Booleans. What does it mean when, say, coolerState returns true? Does it mean that the cooler's current state is good, i.e. cold enough, i.e. switched off? Or does it mean that it is powered on, and actively cooling? An enum with a few values, ON and OFF, could be less ambiguous.)*The book presents us with the TDD loop:
I'm not going to rehash all the rest of my notes. I took a lot of them, and calling out everything I perceive to be wrong with this book would be counterproductive. I'll stop with one more egregious piece of example code. This is from chapter 8, a prime number generator:
What the heck is this code? What is this algorithm? What are these method names? set2AsFirstPrime? smallestOddNthMultipleNotLessThanCandidate? Why does the code break with an out-of-bounds exception if we replace the int[] with a second ArrayList? Earlier, we were advised that a method should be a command, which does something, or a query, which answers something, but not both. This was good advice, so why do nearly all of these methods ignore it? And what of thread safety?
A Philosophy of Software Design is not a drop-in replacement for Clean Code. As the title suggests, it focuses more on the practice of software design at a higher level than it does on the writing or critiquing of actual individual lines of code. (As such, it contains relatively few code examples.) Because it's aimed at this higher level, I think it's possibly not a suitable read for absolute beginner programmers. A lot of this high-level theory is difficult to comprehend or put into practice until you have some real experience to compare it with. I think there actually is something of a gap in the market for an entry-level introductory programming text right now.
Deluge works with a client/server model. The server is referred to as the daemon and runs in the background, waiting for a client (console, gtk, or web-based) to connect. The client can disconnect, but the daemon continues to run, transferring the torrent files in the queue.
On many default configurations, when using iptables with connection tracking (conntrack) set to drop "INVALID" packets, sometimes a great deal of legitimate torrent traffic (especially DHT traffic) is dropped as "invalid." This is typically caused by either conntrack's memory restrictions, or from long periods between packets among peers (see [1] and [2]). Symptoms of this problem include torrents not seeding, especially when the torrent client has been active for more than a day or two continuously, and consistently low overhead traffic (in one experience, less than 3KiB/s in either in or out) with DHT enabled, even when deluge/libtorrent has been continuously running for more than forty-eight hours and many torrents are active. For this reason, it may be necessary to disable connection tracking of all torrent traffic for optimal performance, even with the listening ports set to ACCEPT (as the causes for dropping INVALID packets, for instance conntrack's memory problems, may supercede any rules to accept traffic to/from those ports).
This usually means the state file has gotten corrupted. It has been an intermittent issue since last decade. There should be one backup state file along with a copy of all the previously-running torrents in your deluge profile folder (for systemd users this is usually /srv/deluge/.config/deluge/state) that can be restored to remedy this issue. However, it can get overwritten pretty quickly, especially if you only notice your torrents list after several reboots. A suggested course of action to keep it from happening again is to automate a daily backup of the state file and the torrents.
But having 20 torrents queued with a high-speed bandwidth allocated will not guarantee anything if you have a seedless or, even worse, a dead torrent. Checking and improving the health of your torrents is a perfect way to ensure high speed.
A torrent is a small file that contains all the metadata about files and folders. It does not hold any content data. It also includes a list of all the network torrent trackers that link you with the correct torrent seeder.
Safe torrenting is not 100% guaranteed. Protecting from malware has a lot to do with common sense and mistrust. The P2P world is full of scammers that will use fake torrents to attract targets and infect their systems.
If you have access to a remote web uTorrent or a mobile client (hosted on a Seedbox VPS), you can view all your media files from anywhere and any device (as long as you have a decent Internet connection) on both ends. But still, it is better to leave torrenting for uTorrent and streaming for the kings of streaming. Use media streaming solutions such as Plex or Kodi with powerful built-in transcoding capabilities. Plus, you can sort, organize, and share all your uTorrent content via these streaming services.
Finally, if you can afford it, a rewrite to a modern PHP framework such as Laravel or Symfony is much better in the long run. You will have all the tools you need to do safe, sane PHP development. Depending on the size of the application, if it is big, I would advise using the strangler pattern to avoid a big bang rewrite that could (and probably would) end badly. This way, you can migrate parts of the code you are currently working on to the new system while keeping the old working ones untouched until you need to work on them.
Ideally, you should write PHP code that adheres to a known standard. This could be any combination of PSRs, or oneof the coding standards made by PEAR or Zend. This means other developers can easily read and work with your code, andapplications that implement the components can have consistency even when working with lots of third-party code.
Graphical debuggers make it very easy to step through code, inspect variables, and eval code against the live runtime.Many IDEs have built-in or plugin-based support for graphical debugging with Xdebug. MacGDBp is a free, open-source,stand-alone Xdebug GUI for Mac.
