Our research shows that mind map-specific user modeling has a high potential, and we hope that our results initiate a discussion that encourages researchers to do research in this field and developers to integrate recommender systems to their mind mapping tools. A user study confirmed the high effectiveness of the mind map specific approach with an average rating of 3.23 (out of 5), compared to a rating of 2.53 for the best baseline. However, when adjusting user modeling to the unique characteristics of mind maps, a higher CTR of 7.20% could be achieved. The evaluation shows that standard user modeling approaches are reasonably effective when applied to mind maps, with click-through rates (CTR) between 1.16% and 3.92%. Docear displayed 430,893 research paper recommendations, based on 4,700 user mind maps, from March 2013 to August 2014. The approaches are applied and evaluated using our mind mapping and reference-management software Docear. Additionally, we develop novel user modeling approaches that consider the unique characteristics of mind maps. ![]() In this paper, we explored the effectiveness of standard user-modeling approaches applied to mind maps.

If you are serious about using Mind Maps, try How to write a thesis (Bachelor, Master, or PhD) and which software tools to use. This is an introduction to an academic literature management tool called Docear that can hep you to map your research and draft your thesis.Mind maps have not received much attention in the user modeling and recommender system community, although mind maps contain rich information that could be valuable for user-modeling and recommender systems. I can shift pieces around and easily see what parts need fleshing out or reorganization. Mind maps are also an excellent overview of my thought process. A topic will inspire another topic, and I can start adding ideas and clarifying them as fast as I can think them. With a mind map, scattered thoughts begin to solidify before my eyes. Docear is an open source literature suite for organizing references and PDFs, including the PDFs annotations. I like mind maps because they let me think non-linearly and because they allow ideas to “grow” in an organic fashion. When I need to get an idea out of my head, or I need to take that idea and flesh it out, I turn to mind maps. ![]() Here are some selected quotes from the post: Close Docear if it’s currently running Download the updated library docear-metadata-lib-0.0.1.jar.

From that day forward Zotz Sours was my favorite candy and I made a conscious effort to spend at least a little time with my brother. I popped one in my mouth and I bit it and even though it was sour it was the best candy I ever ate. He opened the pack and chomped one then another until they were all gone! I was amazed even more when he asked for more. I acted as if I was angry and finally said sure. As I was walking home the store he came running after me asking if he could have some of what was in the bag without even knowing what it was. I thought to myself, that if these were horrible enough, maybe he would think twice about always having to have everything I had. The lady behind the counter told me they were terribly sour. I went to the local candy store one day and just happened to see a candy named Zotz Sours. I finally felt I needed some way to stop this tag-along in his tracks. This, of course, didn't sit well with an older, more worldly boy of ten, such as myself. Anything I did he had to be right beside me and everything I had, he wanted. I was three years older than him and it seemed like all he wanted to do was be under my feet. Growing up with a little brother was, at times, trying to say the least. Zotz are an Italian made candy that were first introduced into the US in 1968. It looks and tastes like a regular hard candy, but when you bite into the center there is a sour fizzing taste because of the powder reacting with saliva. These were a huge hit because they had so much powder in the center.Zotz is a candy with a fizzy, sour center. You can see the powder inside and we thought it looked pretty cool! With assorted flavors like blue raspberry, cherry, apple, orange, grape, and watermelon, you’re sure to love the delicious taste of each and every Zotz. Originally developed in the 60s, Zotz is an old fashioned candy favorite. The root beer was a huge hit but we liked how the lighter colors looked. They’re perfect for giveaways, goodie bags, and just about any occasion. We had fun using our different flavor oils. Let the candies harden completely before you remove them from the molds. ![]() How big you make the indent will depend on the size of your candies/molds and how much fizzy powder you want to add to each candy.Īfter you have added the powder, make another batch of the hard candy and carefully add another layer over the tops of the candies to seal in the fizzy powder. Yowza!!!Īfter the candy gets firm, push an indent in the center using the end of the knife or wooden spoon. Go ahead and scoop up a little bit and put it on your tongue. You just mix baking soda, citric acid (you can find this in the canning section at the store) and powdered sugar. I was surprised how simple the fizzy powder was to make. We don’t have simple candy molds so I tried to find some that weren’t too big. The first batch you use to fill up the molds about half way. You can use the recipe we have posted here or the one we used for our Slimy Slug Candy (which was a huge hit, BTW.) In order to do this correctly you have to make 2 batches of the hard candy. We searched the internet on how to make them and I was so excited that I found the instructions on ![]() So what do we do? See if we can make them, of course. We have to buy them at the retro candy stores at the coast or at the little, family owned movie theater here in town. But they aren’t sold in the grocery stores around here anymore. It’s been around since 1968 and has been a kid favorite for decades. The powder is “activated” by saliva (liquid) so when you are sucking on the candy, it all of a sudden fizzes and is totally strange. Zotz Fizzy Candy is a hard candy with a sour, fizzy powder on the inside. My daughter and her friends love Zotz Fizzy Candy. She wants to be with Andy, and she kisses him, too. A little later, April pays Andy a visit and takes back her earlier decision. Andy heads home to get his guitar, but gets hit by a car and breaks his arm.Īt the last minute, Ben surprises Leslie by getting Freddy Spaghetti to perform the concert, which is a success after all.Īnn brings Andy a tray of jello while he's in the hospital and in a surprise move, kisses him. Leslie asks Andy's band Mouse Rat to perform instead. He took another gig in a neighboring city when the concert was originally cancelled.ĭesperate times call for desperate measures. Then Donna delivers the news that Freddy Spaghetti isn't coming. The stage is built and everything at the concert has been donated so the show will go on. Per usual, Chris lets Ben break the bad news that the concert is cancelled. Ron gets to the lot to warn Leslie and her team that Ben and Chris are on their way. Ron lets it slip that Leslie's putting together the Freddy Spaghetti concert on her own, despite the government shutdown. Ron offers himself up instead, but Ben turns him down. Ron and Ben disagree over the decision to lay off Leslie. They finally tell each other how they feel, but April decides she can't date him because she's concerned he still has feelings for Ann, even though Andy denies it. Ron's opposed to this suggestion from the start, and finds himself positioning for her safety.Īndy catches up with April. Ron's all for supporting budget and staff cuts until Ben suggests they lay off Leslie, since she has the second highest salary in the department. While he's at the budget meeting, Leslie calls to tell him she's putting on the Freddy Spaghetti concert with or without his support. Ron is a representative on the city's task force to cut the overall budget. Leslie calls all the Parks Department staff and has them meet her at Ann's the next morning. She tells Leslie to host the Freddy Spaghetti concert on the lot behind her house without the support of the government. Leslie leaves Tom's and heads over to the hospital to talk to Ann.Īnn has a great idea. Tom answers the door in his sexy pajamas, telling Leslie she's interrupting his special time with Lucy, the bartender from the Snakehole Lounge. Leslie pays Tom a visit at his apartment. He decided to take the offer and accepted a job at a local construction company. When the government shut down, Mark was offered a buyout. Ann says no to but that doesn't dampen Chris' cheery domineer. ![]() While on his 10-mile run, Chris stops at the hospital to ask Ann out on a date. While Leslie stays to talk to Ben, Chris heads out on his daily 10-mile run. ![]() Chris tries to find a solution, but Ben tells Leslie nothing can be done the concert will remain cancelled. Leslie talks to Chris and Ben about the Freddy Spaghetti concert. Leslie delivers the bad news - the concert has been cancelled. One resident asks about the Freddy Spaghetti concert scheduled for tomorrow to kick off summer. Leslie and Ron hold a town hall meeting with Pawnee residents about the parks closures due to the government shutdown. Ron informs Andy that the government has been shut down for an undefined period of time.Īndy shows off his new red motorcycle, which he calls a "crotch rocket." On his rollerblades, Andy skates into the office to ask Ron why it's so quiet. His home life is far happier and more fulfilling than anyone else on the show’s - which on some deep psychological level may be why they attack him all the time.Ron sits alone in the quiet and empty Parks and Recreation Department offices. He’s married and has a very loving family. “He’ll put up with a lot at work because he has this lovely retirement and future laid out in front of him that he’s just crossing off the days on the calendar waiting to get to. “The original design of the character - which didn’t really come out until we started having people make fun of him - was that he didn’t care about anything except putting his head down and doing his job and getting to the point where he can collect his pension,” says Schur. Equally as impressive, the show manages to make all of its crapping-on-Jerry comedy not seem too mean-spirited. Even when he occasionally shows himself to possess admirable skills - take his magic egg trick, his piano performance, his Centaur painting - a host of forces somehow conspire against him to rob him of any redemption. But let us note that Jerry-rigged humor is not one-dimensional - he’s a versatile victim, a nice guy who always finds new ways to finish last. Verdict: Tinker is a better card than Platinum Emperion or Wurmcoil Engine.

Yes it comes down later, but its not such a great problem, when your life total can't change. Your best options here are probably playable cards like Burlington Coat Factory - er, Forge Tender - or fringe playables like Energy Storm, Circle of Protection: Red, and Soulfire Grand Master. Madcap Experiment + Platinum Emperion do provide a beater that is always bigger than goys (8/8 > 7/8). For just 4 mana, you’re getting an 8/8 creature and not taking any more damage for as. The Experiment requires you to play no artifacts in your deck other than Platinum Emperion, and the rewards for doing so are massive. You can get one of the Big Three tinker targets: Blightsteel, Inkwell Leviathan, or Sphinx of the Steel Wind, depending on the matchup. You’re featuring the full playset of Madcap Experiments, and your plan A is to accelerate them out as quickly as possible. If you run cards that protect you from the damage dealt by Madcap, you are now playing with Tinker (that sometimes kills you, YOLO). This is where i think people need to focus their efforts. And, why not just run Metalworker / Sol Lands? I don't see the point here. Still, if you do that, sometimes you will kill yourself. You could just jam this in a deck with 10+ fat artifact creatures so that you never worry about killing yourself. If you're playing this in Legacy, you must be on a shoestring budget. Moreover, both Emperion and Angel open you up to instant-kills in response.

For example, if a creature with lifelink deals damage to you, you won't lose any life, but its controller will still gain that much life. Rather, it changes the results of that damage. In the case of the former, an 8/8 for 4 seems fine for Modern but I think it's actually pretty terrible for Legacy.

You can define custom scripts to run when Focus is enabled and disabled that take the app’s potentiality to a whole new level. You can also optionally enable the Pomodoro Mode, a focusing technique that helps you get your work done by repeated cycles of long focus periods followed by short breaks.įinally, Focus lets you customize more powerful actions by supporting BASH scripts and URL Handlers. This option locks access to the Focus settings, which means that the current focus session can’t be terminated (and hence website and app blocks can’t be lifted) until the timer is up.

It’s worth noting that expansions are pretty pricey and the game also features microtransactions.

You spend most of your time doing activities like strikes, dungeons, and raids while working on character progression in-between missions. But just in case you don’t, Destiny 2 is an online-only multiplayer FPS with some RPG and MMO elements. It might not be around for much longer, though, so if you want to check it out it’s probably better to act sooner rather than later.Īs far as the game itself is concerned, Destiny 2 is still hugely popular and you probably already know the basic gist of it. I know what you’re thinking, “wait, is Stadia still a thing?” Surprisingly, yes. ![]() ![]() This includes PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and even Google Stadia. Starting with 2021, Destiny 2 has been supporting crossplay between all available platforms. Hence, why the game is available on Steam. The payment model switch came as a result of Bungie snatching Destiny 2 from under Activision’s umbrella. The game has had an interesting lifecycle so far, originally launching as a pay-to-play title back in 2017 before switching to free-to-play a couple of years later. Destiny 2įirst up on our list we have Destiny 2. With that out of the way, and in no particular order, let’s jump right into it. As an added bonus, some of these games are available on mobile, Google Stadia, and even VR. We specifically looked for games that support crossplay between both current-gen’s PS5/Xbox Series X and last-gen’s PS4 and Xbox One, as well as PC and, in some cases, the Nintendo Switch. Instead of boring you with all the little details, we decided to put together a list of the best cross platform games you can play in 2022. Having said all that, there are still many caveats and exceptions when it comes to who you can play together with depending on your platform. And ever since the last major player, Nintendo, decided to jump on the bandwagon, the list of crossplay games you can play with friends across all systems has slowly started to grow. Luckily, the company eventually gave in to the pressure and is much more open to the idea nowadays. While crossplay between PC and consoles (especially Xbox) has been the norm for some time, Sony has been very reticent about allowing its customers to play with people from rival platforms. Despite being around since the early 2000s, crossplay games haven’t been very common until fairly recently. |
