The Lady and Her Tramps
Janelle Dixon helped nearly 20,000 pets find new homes last year as head of the Animal Humane Society. So why is a growing cadre of fellow animal lovers making her life difficult?
(page 3 of 4)
If the old model was an "emergency room," as dixon puts it, with animals arriving unexpectedly, the new AHS would operate more like a clinic. No longer would people be permitted to drop off animals without explanation; they would need to make an appointment.
The initiative was called Bound for Home. The after-hours drop-off room was closed and, beginning last January, in a warehouse room retrofitted with cubicles, staffers began fielding up to a hundred phone calls a day. They ask people who want to surrender their animal, well, why? Have they tried behavior classes? Have they tried fixing a medical issue? Have they tried giving the pet to someone they know? They suggest resources, a rundown of the classes and services offered by the AHS. If no alternative presents itself, they schedule an appointment—for 48 to 72 hours later, just in case, in the meantime, the person can find a different solution.
Almost immediately, the number of animals coming into the AHS started to slow. Of the animals that did arrive, the staff knew more about them than they would have before—why the pet was surrendered, where it came from, how it behaved at home—which helped to market them to potential adopters. It also helped avoid euthanasia. In a typical story, a woman who had taken in a pregnant cat soon found herself overwhelmed by kittens. She brought two into the Woodbury shelter, but the kittens were stressed and only one proved adoptable. Because the staff had the woman's information, they called her and asked if she wanted the other one back. She did, sparing the cat's life.
By the end of the year, the euthanasia rate had dropped precipitously. Adoptions had picked up. There were days this past winter when many of the cages were empty. "It's been transformational," Dixon says.
But it wasn't long before some animal activists began to complain. On a Facebook page called "Stop the Killing at Animal Humane Society Minnesota," which has 931 fans, activists noted the empty cages and wondered why they were not being used to house chronically ill animals of the sort that were often euthanized. "Are all their locations full?" one activist posted. "I heard they have plenty of open kennels and can't understand why they are killing [animals]."
Gail Anderson, a longtime board member with Star of the North Humane Society, which took in 700 animals a year from the Grand Rapids area until its shelter closed last year, questions whether the appointment policy is helping troubled animals or discriminating against them. "People who find injured or stray animals, they're not going to keep them until they can come in for an appointment," she says. "They're going to find a faster solution." She has advised other activists to think twice before working with the AHS. "The AHS has amassed enough money and veterinary support that they could do wonders for animals with issues," she says. "Instead, it feels like they've decided to focus on healthy, adoptable animals. Instead of changing their policy on euthanasia, they're dancing around it."
Last June, the animal-control centers in both Minneapolis and St. Paul reported taking in more animals than usual in the first half of the year—90 more in St. Paul, 375 more in Minneapolis. Some of the animals, at least in Minneapolis, could be traced to the tornado that hit the city's north side. But by fall the numbers in Minneapolis were still running about 26-percent higher than normal.
Bill Stephenson, who runs the St. Paul Animal Control center, says he can't pin the increase there on the AHS's new appointment policy any more than he could pin it on the weather or the economy. The numbers have fluctuated for years, and although he ended the year with about a third more cats than he received in 2010, he had the same total (300) in 2009. Still, Stephenson says, he wouldn't be surprised if some people looking to unburden themselves of an animal couldn't be bothered to keep an appointment. "People often want instant gratification," he says, "the quick fix."
Mike Fry, a well-known activist in the Minnesota animal-welfare community, runs a shelter in Hastings and a thrift store in St. Paul that generates money for the shelter. Both, he says, have experienced a "dramatic surge" of animals abandoned on the steps, the way they once were at the AHS. In a typical example, he says, the St. Paul staff recently found a banker's box sealed with duct tape. Inside were seven cats.
Fry is now publicly criticizing what he calls the "serious negative consequences" of the new policy. "I'm a fan of the concept," he says. "They shouldn't take in more animals than they can care for. But simply not killing animals is different from saving them—they're just pushing the problem away."
On a sunny afternoon, dixon waves me to a seat in her office at the AHS headquarters. Dixon is known among her peers as brisk and business-like. But around the office, say her employees, she can become emotional when discussing animal welfare, melting behind the makeup. "She's a softie," one longtime colleague told me. She also has a healthy sense of humor, her slight smile reflecting more bemusement than reserve. Once, when I came to her house for an interview, her dog ran out to my car. "Probably going to pee on your tire," she noted drily, as if to say, "What can you do?"
Human behavior is another story. "We, as people, don't always do the things that animals need us to do," Dixon says diplomatically. "Our goal with the appointments is to understand why—why that bond between a pet and its owner is broken—and see if we can't make the right adjustment."
Dixon smiles sympathetically. "The fallacy is that people who surrender animals don't care about them," she says. "Some of us simply have a greater capacity than others to find solutions. Each person comes from such a different place."
Dixon allows that some people, confused or annoyed by the appointment process, may be surrendering their animals elsewhere. The AHS expected this, she says, at least for the first year. And she doesn't believe it's a high number. People surrendered 25,600 animals to the AHS last year while 4,881 cancelled their appointments or didn't show up. The AHS surveyed them to find out why and heard back from 3,370, a 70-percent response. The majority said they either kept the pet or found a new home for it. Only 128 said they took the animal to another shelter—a fraction, Dixon notes, compared to the thousands of animals that the appointments apparently helped people keep.
Of course, there is no way of knowing how many people, spooked by the new policy, never called the AHS and chose a different solution. But according to call-center data provided by the AHS, the number of people who did contact the AHS last year was within a few dozen of the total who had surrendered the year before, suggesting little change. Dixon isn't about to speculate. Fewer animals are good for those that remain, she says, and some of the empty cages are an illusion: animals are simply moving in and out faster than before, sometimes the same day. The average waiting period for adoption has shrunk slightly for dogs and dramatically for cats, from 32 days to eight.
"I don't want to spend an inordinate amount of time in a defensive position," Dixon says. "We've been transparent, we've said what we believe in. From our perspective, there are many ways to help animals." Dixon flashes a wry smile. "Look," she says, "this is highly emotional work—I get that—and everyone thinks they can do it better. I've had to deal with that since forever."
In 2007, a few months after Dixon ascended to the top of the AHS, a young attorney from San Francisco named Nathan Winograd published Redemption: The Myth of Pet Overpopulation and the No Kill Revolution in America, in which he argues that the problem at animal shelters isn't too many pets or too few adopters—it's the shelters themselves. Most are too quick to euthanize, he claims, and too lazy about finding adopters. With a little creative thinking, he says, they should be able to lower their euthanasia rate to 10 percent or less.
Winograd wasn't the first to say this. The "no kill" movement began in San Francisco in the early 1990s. But he was the first to say it so loudly. A kind of goateed St. Francis for the blogging age, he now travels from city to city working with local officials to make it easier for people to adopt animals and harder for shelters to euthanize them. In just a few years, he has inspired dozens of alternative no-kill shelters around the world, each going to great lengths to avoid euthanasia, sometimes housing unadoptable pets in perpetuity.
On his blog, Winograd has singled out the AHS as a particularly lazy shelter. He has also blasted Dixon during his regular call-in appearances on the syndicated radio show Animal Wise—with the encouragement of Mike Fry, the local animal activist. Fry, as it happens, is the show's co-host. And his shelter, called Animal Ark, is the largest no-kill operation in Minnesota.
Fry's mother founded Animal Ark in Hastings in 1977. It's small compared to the AHS, as nearly every other shelter is, typically housing about 100 animals. "This place used to be a hell-hole," Fry says while showing me around. Now there are five yards out back for animals to play in and a separate sanctuary recently created for a dog deemed too dangerous for adoption. Inside, cats are housed in spacious glass-windowed rooms—"cat condominiums," Fry calls them. Potential adopters play with animals in cozy "socialization rooms," complete with fireplaces and televisions to simulate a home.
For the last six years, Fry claims, 98.2 percent of the animals that have come into his shelter have gone out alive. "There are way more people looking for pets than most people think," he says and cites several cities—Reno, Nevada; Austin, Texas—where, under Winograd's watch, shelters have boosted adoption rates. "I find it very condescending for a shelter to say, 'We're going to wait for people to step up and take care of these animals,' and then, when people don't come forward, blame the killing on the community. You've got to put your heart and soul into it!"
Like many activists, Fry had been encouraged by the appointment of Dixon's predecessor as CEO, in 2005. She orchestrated the merger of three humane societies, believing that a larger, better-funded organization could save more animals. She also signaled an openness to new ideas, managing a tenuous truce with activists. "She was beloved," says a former colleague of hers at the AHS. And then she was gone—"a brief beam of daylight," Fry says.
After Dixon took over, Fry gave her about nine months, then fired off a letter—which he published on the Animal Ark website—deploring the cages used at the AHS and offering his advice on boosting adoptions. Recently, his advice has become more personal. On the Animal Ark blog, he has implored Dixon to "move on to a career in a different field that is better suited to your ethics." He calls the recent drop in euthanasia at the AHS a "baby step" and, in December, he helped rally about 100 people to protest the AHS at a Woodbury City Council meeting.
Fry pauses to take a call (his ring tone is the sound of dogs barking) and then, as though forgetting his antagonism, says of Dixon, "We should be able to put our personalities aside and say, 'What's the common goal?' We should be able to work together, and not care that we hate each other's guts."

Report: Apple Signs Deal with Warner Music Group for "iRadio"
Tiffany Kaiser
June 2, 2013 11:01 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
iRadio is expected to make an appearance at WWDC next week
Apple had a busy weekend locking in a promising music deal for its upcoming
Internet radio service
-- which is due to make an appearance at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) this month.
Apple successfully signed a deal over the weekend with Warner Music Group and its publishing arm, Warner/Chappell Music, for recorded music rights and music publishing rights.
About a month ago, it signed another deal with Universal Music Group for its recorded music rights.
Apple's Internet radio service -- which is expected to be named "iRadio" and compete with the likes of Pandora -- will reportedly be free and depend on advertising for revenue. IOS users will be able to use their iPhones, iPads and iPods to stream music based on user preferences.
Last fall,
The Wall Street Journal
reported that
Apple's service
would differ from Pandora in that users could play or skip songs as much as they'd like (Pandora limits how many times a song can be played or skipped).
Apple has been negotiating deals with record labels directly in order to receive better licensing terms. Negotiations with these groups were delayed for months because they wanted higher rates from Apple. According to
The New York Times
, record labels ask for about 4 percent of Pandora's revenue, but wanted at least 10 percent of Apple's.
However, Apple managed to strike a deal with Warner Music Group for an undisclosed rate. Apple is also trying to sign deals with Sony Music Entertainment and its publishing arm, Sony/ATV.
Apple will reportedly unveil iRadio at WWDC, which takes place June 10-14 in San Francisco.
The New York Times
"I'm an Internet expert too. It's all right to wire the industrial zone only, but there are many problems if other regions of the North are wired." -- North Korean Supreme Commander Kim Jong-il

In the game of Risk, you receive a card at the end of your turn if you captured at least one territory during that turn. If you end up with a proper set (to be defined shortly), you can redeem in on a later turn for bonus armies.
Cards either contain one of three symbols–horseman (H), cannon (C), soldier (S)–or are Jokers (J) that can act as any one of the three symbols.
This Kata has two parts. Please do Part 1 imagining that you know nothing about Part 2, i.e. minimally like a good TDDer should.
Determine whether or not a collection of three (selected) cards represents a valid set that can be turned in. A valid set contains three cards either all with the same symbol, or each will different symbols.
The user has selected exactly three valid cards–the UI constrains how many cards can be selected–so your solution should concern itself with no other possibilities.
Examples of valid sets:
C-S-J (with the Joker acting as an H)
S-S-J (with the Joker acting as an S)
Examples of invalid sets:
Determine whether or not a collection of 0 through 5+ cards (i.e. all the cards that a user holds) contains a valid set.
Five cards logically must always contain a valid set. The only case where a four card set is invalid is when it contains only two symbols, e.g. H-H-C-C.
This is not a long kata: My first implementation (in Java, I'll try another language next time) that covers both parts is essentially a complex conditional with four conditional expressions, probably 20 minutes of effort. It did bring up a couple interesting questions as I ran through it.
I'd love to hear from you if you try this kata–please report back any interesting findings!
I was triggered to create this Kata after I saw a complex open source implementation (in a working Risk app) that required several dozens of lines of Java code. You can do much better.]]>
And so on. Each of these deficient approaches could be replaced with a better way of working that doesn't waste everyone's time. You can easily come up with more: What things do we do that cause our teammates, stakeholders, or users to grouse and grumble?
Code like you cared about other people. It's easy to gauge whether or not you succeeded–just ask your teammates.]]>
Agile Java has been in print since 2005. It still sells copies–not a lot–and I also still receive thanks for the book from many folks who found it a great way to learn (TDD + OO + Java from the ground up). I feel a bit guilty that people still use a 12+year-old-book featuring a version of Java end-of-lifed for about 8 years! Time for a rewrite, as some have requested?
A dozen years later, what would change?
Otherwise, the tone and general flow would remain the same. Hopefully not the page length: Few folks want to read 750-page books anymore.
I'm the sort to find the stuff I wrote a while back to be lacking, so I might be tempted to rewrite a few things…]]>
If you've read Agile in a Flash or some of my blog entries, you'd quickly gather that I'm not a fan of most software-based project tracking tools–you're better off using whiteboards and/or physical card walls. Introduce a software tool only if you must. And if your need is solely for reporting up to management (hmmm), remember that it's the SM's/project manager's job to capture, consolidate, and distribute such information. Please don't involve the rest of the team in this.
The tools I seek instead are those that help our team communicate and collaborate better. We're 15+ years into "agile;" I'd hoped for far more collaboration tools than exist today. (What's my excuse for not building any of it?)
IDEA, Eclipse, and even VisualStudio (with Resharper added) are powerful. To what extent do these tools directly support TDD? IDEA, Eclipse, and VS all support unit testing out of the box, but that scratches only the surface. While plugins exist for many of these interests, I'd like to see direct support for things like:
With TDD, tests and production code are inexorably linked. It would be nice to work in an IDE that supported TDD as the primary workflow for building software.
Pairing will never supplant loner development. But it's still a preferred way of working for many developers, including those distributed geographically.
If we're pairing and you're sharing your machine and IDE, I'm stuck with your horrifying choices for keymaps (I need my vim!), colors, font, and font size. One or both of us must make concessions to the most-comfortable setup we would choose. How sad.
The problem of disconcerting configs would be reasonably easily solved if the major IDEs supported a universal config-switching scheme. Sets of profiles (one profile per IDE, I suppose) would be stored somewhere accessible via http. The first time I sit on your machine, I'd enter my profile-set location. The IDE would provide a universal hotkey that toggles between active profiles (right now, you would typically need to go through one or more Preferences/Settings pages to switch out all the preferences). My turn to pair? I press the toggle hotkey, and my preferred setup is loaded..
Another focus would include supporting accessibility considerations for pairs. Some folks need a considerably large font, for example. A pair-friendly IDE would provide the ability to easily sport multiple views across multiple monitors.
Using multiple machines might ultimately be a better world than my shared machine ideas above, even if I'm physically sitting next to you.
Screen-shared programming sessions usually suffer latency issues, particularly for the remote pair. If you're a VIM or Emacs weenie, however, you can run an effective pairing session using tmux/tmate or screen. The character-mode interaction makes it almost as good as being there–particularly when coupled with cameras, quality audio, and a screen share so that you can see the UI interactions on the host machine. This is my preferred remote-pairing setup, but I admit that there are some great things I lose that IDEs like IDEA can provide.
Atom also supports a plugin called Motepair that "enables remote pair programming using Github's editor."
Subscription-based cloud IDEs like Cloud9, Codeanywhere (which has a free version), and Codenvy are an option, but for now, most of us would probably prefer to stick with our IDEA or VisualStudio or Eclipse. (And I'm resisting paying for yet another subscription…) Having not used these, I'm not sure how truly collaborative they are. Your experiences are welcome in the comments!
The subscription-based Floobits takes things one step further, offering the premise of allowing clients to use whatever IDE they choose… as long as it's Emacs, IDEA, Neovim, Sublime Text, or Atom (no Eclipse or Visual Studio yet). I've not tried it, but it sounds fantastic. Koding appears to be another tool with a similar model.
Other attempts have been made to create remote pairing plugins for specific IDEs. I remember XPairtise, an Eclipse plugin, which was file-based (it synced at the file system level) and had no end of problems. Now there's SAROS, a still-active open source initiative.
There's little worse than watching someone struggle through typing story data into a tool like Rally. The tool often requires lots of clicking about, which can create a distraction for the rest of the team in the room.
In contrast, I've found simple virtual card wall solutions like Trello to be fantastic, however. I've run and been a party to iteration planning, retrospectives, and other distributed (and non-distributed!) meetings where Trello was the tool of choice. It's highly tactile and responsive; all parties see changes as they occur. With plugins, things like dot-voting on cards promote Trello to a great general purpose tool for managing and tracking just about any collaborative meeting. Worst case is that you need to export the information to sync up another tool elsewhere.
Ultimately: I wish all applications supported true real-time collaboration. Google Docs is a great example of a tool that effectively supports live editing by multiple people.
If we really believe in agile, let's insist that the tools we use and build all support collaborative capabilities, and not just as an afterthought.]]>
private keyword–it's one less piece of clutter, and these are tests, which should have no clients.
A or
An. Examples:
AnItem. This means that I have a naming convention for tests that is vetted by sheer readability. For example:
APantry.listsItemsExpiringToday(). I'm actually ambivalent and even inconsistent about this; if enough people beat me up, I might change, but I kind of like it the more I do it.
if (x) { doSomething(); } when
if (x) doSomething(); will suffice? "But what if you forget to add the braces when needed (ed: and you don't remember to format the code)?" Has yet to be a problem, particularly since I'm doing TDD.
if's (and for other similar control flow statements) on a single line. In fact, single-line
if's make the use of safety braces look even stupider, as the previous bullet demonstrates.
import packagename.*; … because I figure one could always hover or automatically get the imports to show explicitly if needed. Lately though I'm feeling a bit repentant and showing explicit imports… for pedantic reasons?
Maybe I need to pair more frequently again.]]>
Here's a starter list of the costs that duplication creates:
No doubt some of you can add additional costs associated with duplicate code in a system. Please do (in the comments).]]>
A few weeks ago, I iterated characteristics for a very-first exercise for TDD newbies. But once you've settled on a great introductory TDD example, how do you deliver it? What do you talk about or demonstrate, and what do the students do on their own?
I used to initiate TDD training by first doing a demo, then letting students do their own similar exercise (or even the same one) on their own. When demonstrating my example, I'd first talk about the TDD cycle, then launch into some coding. During the demo, I'd discuss the mechanics of their unit-testing tool and assertion framework of choice, what a test looked like, what sorts of things to focus on during refactoring, and so on.
I got good at coding while talking and looking at the students. So what? The problem was, I was blathering and they were watching, providing a great opportunity for them to start tuning out–a very bad thing for people who likely are anxious about TDD in the first place. I tried a bit of choreographing: I'd demo bit-by-bit, waiting for students to catch up on coding the same bit. It worked, but still seemed like too much was getting covered all at once.
My goal instead became to get students into their own, simplest possible exercise as quickly as possible. Using a technique I learned from James Grenning long ago, students are given a complete set of tests for the first exercise. Initially the tests are all disabled or commented out. The tests are ordered to best promote consistent incremental growth of the solution.
The student's job is to uncomment one test at a time, watch it fail, get it to pass, refactor, and then move on to the next test. My primary instruction to them is to ensure that they write no more code than needed to get the current test to pass. This is a hard and important lesson to learn and understand! My secondary instruction is to tell them to clean the code up with each passing test (yet they never do enough of it, regardless of instruction!).
If I've done my job particularly well in terms of ordering the tests, I can even introduce a tool that forces the issue of minimal implementations: The TDD Smackdown Tool is a simple test runner that generates test failure when students write code that causes any of the still-commented-out tests to pass. It's not foolproof, but might prevent them from coding too much before you have time to get to their machine to, well, smack 'em down.
By simply following the instructions and getting tests to pass, students learn a lot by osmosis. A second exercise, without the training wheels of already-written tests, goes far more smoothly. They can look at the first exercise for what a unit test must look like.
No technique is perfect. Some possible challenges / discussions:
– "Since I have all the tests, I know what the complete solution will require, so why not code it already?"
– "Would I normally write all the tests at once?"
Using this Grenning Method, the focus shifts to one core element: how to incrementally grow a solution using TDD. Discussions can focus on the red-green-refactor cycle, emphasizing refactoring and "red first" / minimal implementation.]]>
Introducing developers to TDD? You want to carefully choose a first exercise. Too short, too long, too simple, too complex, too toy-like, too close to their problems, too whatever, and you might have chosen a turn-off. First impressions matter!
Of course, you can't please everybody, but you can usually find a good middle ground. Here are some criteria for selecting an appropriate first TDD exercise.
– Not frivolous. While very many of us love games and trivialities, there are enough developers that don't. Their takeaway: "TDD is just for toys, not the 'professional' development that I do." The Bowling Game? Save it and other games for a second or later exercise.
– "Real" enough. A dozen years ago, I used to demonstrate a stack example in Java. Its implementation was a trivial four methods that simply delegated to an underlying list. Same takeaway: "Why would I bother building such a thing? TDD is just for toy examples."
– Time frame: Not too short, not too long. For a very first exercise, something that takes learners about 25-40 minutes to implement as a pair is ideal. (For experienced test-drivers like you or me, this translates to about 10-15 minutes as an individual and 20 minutes in a pair.) Any longer and they'll get frustrated; much shorter and they won't have had a chance to get into the rhythm.
– Promotes incrementalism. Part of TDD's power is in its ability to help you incrementally grow an implementation in a series of small steps. A ~45 minute example as suggested might involve 5-7 individual tests. As a counter-example: Looking for a Benefactor, a challenge at the kata site CodeWars.com, provides a decent challenge. However, the end-implementation is fully codeable with a second test, and there's perhaps only one additional (denegerate) test to try.
– Allows alternate solutions. Just about everything does, but if there's one and only one decent way to code it, find something that allows for more interesting choices.
– Mild problem solving required. You don't want learners to bog down on thinking terribly hard about the problem itself. Yes, they need to think, but not so much that they're distracted away from the core concepts and technique of TDD. For this reason, problems requiring "interesting" math are probably not a great idea for the average IT developer. Think simple.
– Promotes refactoring. The ability to refactor with confidence is perhaps the primary reason to do TDD, so this criterion is quite important. You want strong reminders at refactoring steps that the code will get out of hand without incremental cleanup. It's likely that problems promoting incrementalism and requiring "mild problem solving" will provide enough refactoring opportunities.
– Allows mistakes. Mistakes are great learning opportunities! You want the possibility for an average learner to make up to a few stupid (or not so stupid) mistakes when implementing a solution. It's even better if they are also likely to make mistakes when refactoring.
– Minimizes esoteric language knowledge. A good developer shouldn't have to Google something to figure out how to implement a solution.
– Potentially expandable. While there's something to be said for "done," having an example you can build on later, or add to for fast learners who are ahead of others, can be worthwhile.
– Fun enough. Not a toy example, but something that programmers might enjoy enough to quickly relate to and dig into.
Knowing your audience can help you refine the above to chose an example even better suited to their interests!
One example of an exercise that I've found to work well: acronym generator, also at CodeWars. It can be done with or without regex string splitting, and the regex is simple if that's the route the developer chooses. There are ample additional requirements you could introduce (salutations, suffixes, resolve clashes, etc.).
Mind you, this is all for a first example. Subsequent exercises can be as meaty, long, goofy, or tricky as needed!]]>
MockInitialContext mic = MockInitialContextFactory.getContext(); mic.map.put(ClassicConstants.JNDI_CONTEXT_NAME, "tata"); LoggerFactory.getLogger(ContextDetachingSCLTest.class); ContextJNDISelector selector = (ContextJNDISelector) ContextSelectorStaticBinder.getSingleton().getContextSelector(); Context context = selector.getLoggerContext(); assertEquals("tata", context.getName()); System.out.println(selector.getContextNames()); assertEquals(2, selector.getCount());
Maybe it helps, just a bit, if I tell you that the test name is
Why must I spend time reading through each line of a test like this to understand what it's really trying to prove?
The test designer might have made the central point of the test obvious, by visually chunking the test into its Arrange-Act-Assert (AAA) parts:
MockInitialContext mic = MockInitialContextFactory.getContext(); mic.map.put(ClassicConstants.JNDI_CONTEXT_NAME, "tata"); LoggerFactory.getLogger(ContextDetachingSCLTest.class); ContextJNDISelector selector = (ContextJNDISelector) ContextSelectorStaticBinder.getSingleton().getContextSelector(); Context context = selector.getLoggerContext(); assertEquals("tata", context.getName()); System.out.println(selector.getContextNames()); assertEquals(2, selector.getCount());
Well, I think that's right at least, given what we know.
(Yes, the word "test" in the name duplicates the requisite @Test annotation. And yes, there are other problems with the test, e.g. printing anything to the console. But it's excruciatingly simple to first ensure the structure of a test is clear.)
Standards are only that if they are constantly adhered to.
Previous Compulsive Coder blog entry: this Duplication Is Killing Me
Next Compulsive Coder blog entry:
Unit tests are different beasts than production code. They serve a different purpose. For the most part, they can and should follow the same standards as production code. But since one of their primary purposes is to provide summary documentation, there are good reasons to adopt differing standards. (I solicited some important distinctions on Twitter a few months ago; this will be fodder for an upcoming post.)
With respect to Beck's four rules of simple design, many have contended that expressiveness slightly outweighs elimination of duplication, irrespective of being production code or tests. With production code, I'm on the fence.
But for tests? The documentation aspect of tests is more relevant than their adherence to OO design concepts. Yes, duplication across tests can cause some future headaches, but the converse–tests that read poorly–is a more typical and bigger time-waster. Yes, get rid of duplication, absolutely, but not if it causes the readability of the tests to suffer.
My dissenting converser was adamant that eliminating duplication was king, citing Beck himself in Test Driven Development by Example (2002), on page one, no doubt: Step four in the rhythm of TDD says you run all the tests, and step five, "Refactor to remove duplication." In that summary of steps, Beck suggests no other reasons to refactor! I can understand how a literalist-slash-originalist might be content with putting their foot down on this definition, never mind that "refactoring" has a broader definition anyway, never mind Beck's simple design to the contrary, and never mind 14 years passage in which we've discussed, reflected, and refined our understanding of TDD.
Why a contentious debate? The dissenter was promoting a framework; they had created some hooks designed to simplify the creation tests for that framework. A laudable goal, except for the fact that I had no clue what the tests were actually proving. That just wads my undies.
Where am I going with all this? Oh yeah. So as I watched the dissenter scroll through some of their tests & prod code onscreen, I noted
this repeated throughout:
public void doSomeStuff() { this.someField = someMethod(); int x = this.someField + 42; // etc. }
Apparently their standard is to always identify field usage by scoping it with
this. (I bit my lip, because at that point I was weary of the protracted debate, and figured I could write about it later. Here I am.)
"Hey, over-using
this might be a good idea, because we can more easily identify where fields are used, which is important information!"
OK, I'm offended that duplication-monists don't view the use of
this in this case (i.e. not to disambiguate) as unnecessary duplication. It is. Squash it. Instead, use the power of your sophisticated IDEA or Eclipse IDEA, and colorize fields appropriately. (I like orange.) They'll stand out like sore thumbs.

Study: Tax Change Could Bring $1 Trillion Back to U.S.
Overhauling U.S. tax rules on overseas earnings could bring about $1 trillion back to the U.S. immediately and boost the economy, according to a new study sponsored by a business group seeking the change.
The report by former Clinton administration economist Laura Tyson and two co-authors was sponsored by a group of U.S. firms, the Alliance for Competitive Taxation, which is pushing for the U.S. to adopt the kind of tax system already in use in most other developed countries.
The report is part of a push by big business to get Congress to switch from the current system, in which corporate income taxes are figured both on U.S. firms' domestic earnings and on international earnings they bring home, to one in which the tax is imposed only on the money firms earn at home, a system known as territorial taxation…

Due to the sensitive nature of these comments, the interviewee has chosen to remain anonymous. « less Funny Or Die June 22, 2017 130k Views More Info Full Credits Matt Mayer Director/ Editor Ryan Bender Director of Photography Funny Or Die Uploader Funny or Die Movies Channel Stats & Data 47Funny40Die 133,373 Views June 22, 2017 Published Category Sketch Tags Han Solo Star Wars Movie Director Ron Howard Phil Lord Christopher Miller Chris Miller Jar Jar Jar Jar Binks Prequels Anonymous Interview Hidden Secret Transcript A lot of Star Wars fans out there upset Ron Howard's been chosen to replace the Han Solo directors. But uh... Mee-sa think it's a great move. I mean... He's gonna make great choices. Best choice would probably be to put Jar Jar in the movie. If that's gonna happen Ron's the man to do it. Ron Howard's one of the most powerful people in Hollywood. He can make that call. Would be the right call. Because Jar Jar Binks is a beloved character who's in great shape right now. Like, great physical shape. If you really wanna turn this movie around you gotta get Jar Jar in there. and not just, like, a supporting role. I mean, maybe it's a Jar Jar movie now. You know? Mee-sa don't think he's been called yet but he's available. That's for sure. Also, Jar Jar and Ron could develop a very special relationship together. That could be cool. For.. For Ron. Maybe they could become life long friends. Ride tandem bikes and shit. So, Star Wars fans, don't fret. Ron Howard could still come through here by calling Jar Jar Binks and saying... Be the star of the Han Solo film. That's how you make Star Wars better. At least, mee-sa think so. May the force be with Ron.

'Martin Luther King was a Republican': The billboard that encourages African-Americans to switch parties
- Conservative group erects billboards to encourage African-Americans to 'Vote Republican!' in next month's Presidential election
- Claver Kamau-Imani, founder of RagingElephants.org, claims he has the documentation to prove iconic civil rights leader voted Republican
- Resident brands board placed on Martin Luther King Jr Blvd 'disrespectful'
- Dr King's son Martin Luther King III denied GOP link in 2008
Billboards claiming iconic civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr was a Republican last week appeared in the black neighbourhoods of three Texas cities, angering local residents.
The advertising hoardings erected in Dallas, Houston and Austin by a conservative organisation to encourage African-Americans to 'Vote Republican!' have been branded 'disrespectful' by one Dallas resident.
The Democrats traditionally attract a far higher proportion of black voters than the Republican party.
'Disrespectful': Billboards claiming civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr was a Republican have appeared in the black neighbourhoods of Dallas, Houston and Austin
But Claver Kamau-Imani, the founder
of RagingElephants.org, claims he has the documentation to prove Dr
King, who was assassinated in 1968, voted Republican.
And he believes his billboards -
which proclaim 'Martin Luther King Jr was a Republican. Vote Republican!
- will encourage other African-Americans to join the party.
He told CBS Dallas: 'The use of Dr King, because of him being an icon in the community, we feel would be most effective. That's why we used it.
'We have the documentation to back the claims we're making on the billboard.'
However, in 2008, Dr King's son Martin Luther King III said: 'It is disingenuous to imply that my father was a Republican. He never endorsed any presidential candidate, and there is certainly no evidence that he ever even voted for a Republican.
'It is even more outrageous to suggest he would support the Republican Party of today, which has spent so much time and effort trying to suppress African-American votes in Florida and many other states.'
One local resident in Dallas,
where the billboard has been put on Martin Luther King Jr Blvd,
criticised the move as 'disrespectful'.
Aaron Carswell said: 'It's a bit
disrespectful for what Martin Luther King stood for, and who he was. To
use his name in a political fashion, is a bit disrespectful.'
Civil rights icon: Dr King addresses marchers during his I Have A Dream speech at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC in August 1963
Campaign: Claver Kamau-Imani, the founder of RagingElephants.org, claims he has the documentation to prove Dr King, who was assassinated in 1968, voted Republican
Amid the country's shifting demographics, Republicans have focused more on reaching out to Hispanics than black voters, who have supported President Barack Obama in overwhelming numbers.
Black Republicans have long been
scarce in Congress. Of 26 black Republican House members since 1870, the
vast majority served during the post-Civil War Reconstruction days.
In her bid to become the first black Republican woman elected to Congress, Mia Love is her party's face of diversity this campaign year
In her bid to become the first black Republican woman elected to Congress, Mia Love is her party's face of diversity this campaign year.
She is reluctant to embrace the role, saying she doesn't let race or gender define her politics.
'I was elected mayor not because of
my race or gender, not because I wear high heels, but because of the
policies I put in place,' Ms Love, 36, said in a recent interview.
Polling shows Ms Love with a slight lead over a six-term Democratic incumbent in Utah.
In a party that has struggled for
decades to attract black voters, the daughter of Haitian immigrants
included subtle nods to civil rights leaders Martin Luther King Jr and
Rosa Parks in her speech to the Republican National Convention in
Ms Love's parents immigrated to the
U.S. in the early 1970s. She says her father - who has worked as a
painter, janitor and school bus driver - taught her never to ask for a
handout. Her parents became U.S. citizens in 1984.
A married mother-of-three, a Mormon
and a favourite of the small-government tea party movement, Ms Love is
the only woman among 11 black Republican House candidates in the
November 6 election.
Republicans have focused more on her conservative values and agenda than her race.
'We need a party that is diverse based on our issues and not based on simply trying to find greater variety in the complexion,' said Rep Tim Scott of South Carolina, one of the two black Republicans now in the House.

Bert made his first appearance on Sesame Street on July 1969. He and his life partner Ernie, spent time goofing off and learning about life. On camera, they shown him having a fondness of pigeons, and collecting paper clips. However off camera, many never knew that he had a very large art collection. He would spend hours in his study, looking at his private galleries. Often drinking fine Cognac, sometimes smoking a pipe, and he would just marvel at the complexities of his fine art collection. Bert had a very high IQ, measuring well over 200, but you wouldn't know it by looking at him. This was due to a rare birth defect, that lead to natural deformities. A large nose, a conical head, and very small eyes, it only lent him to work at...

Title: Reconsidering the Insular Cases: The Past ...
Publisher: Human Rights Program, Harvard Law School
Binding: Soft cover
Book Condition:New
About this title
Over a century has passed since the United States Supreme Court decided a series of cases, known as the "Insular Cases," that limited the applicability of constitutional rights in Puerto Rico and other overseas territories and allowed the United States to hold them indefinitely as subordinated possessions without the promise of representation or statehood. Essays in this volume, which originated in a Harvard Law School conference, reconsider the Insular Cases. Leading legal authorities examine the history and legacy of the cases, which are tinged with outdated notions of race and empire, and explore possible solutions for the dilemmas they created. Reconsidering the Insular Cases is particularly timely in light of the latest referendum in Puerto Rico expressing widespread dissatisfaction with its current form of governance, and litigation by American Samoans challenging their unequal citizenship status. This book gives voice to a neglected aspect of U.S. history and constitutional law and provides a rich context for rethinking notions of sovereignty, citizenship, race, and place, as well as the roles of law and politics in shaping them.About the Author:
Gerald L. Neuman is J. Sinclair Armstrong Professor of International, Foreign, and Comparative Law at Harvard Law School.
Tomiko Brown-Nagin is Daniel P. S. Paul Professor of Constitutional Law at Harvard Law School and Professor of History in the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. She is also Co-Director of the Program in Law and History.
