7:00 – 4:00 VTX
- Good Meeting with Thom Lieb
- Here’s a good checklist for reporting on different types of stories: http://www.sbcc.edu/journalism/manual/checklist/index.php
- Ordered Melvin Mencher’s News Reporting and Writing
- Discussed Chatbots, fashion in technology, and NewsTrust, a fact-checking site that piloted out of Baltimore in 2011. This post explains why it wound up folding. Important note: Tie into social media for inputs and outputs!!!
- Added Communication Power and Counter-power in the Network Society to the corpus
- Manuel Castells is the author of the above. Really clear thinking. Added another paper, The Future of Journalism: Networked Journalism
- Had an interesting chat with an ex-cop about trustworthiness. He’s a fan of the Reid Technique and had a bunch of perspectives that I hadn’t considered. Looking for applications to text, I came across this, which looks potentially relevant: Eliciting Information and Detecting Lies in Intelligence Interviewing: An Overview Of Recent Research
- Todd Schneider analyzes big data in interesting posts on his blog.
- Chapter 7 Using Queries
- JPQL
- Totally digging the @NamedQuery annotation.
- How to paginate a result:
int pageSize = 15; int maxPages = 10; for(int curPage = 0; curPage < maxPages; ++curPage){ List l = nt.runRawPagedQuery(GuidBase.class, curPage, pageSize, "SELECT gb.id, gb.name, gb.guid FROM guid_base gb"); if(l == null || l.size() == 0){ break; }else{ System.out.println("Batch ["+curPage+"]"); nt.printListContents(l); } System.out.println(); }
- Stopping at Queries and Uncommitted Changes, in case my computer is rebooted under me tonight.
