门都打开,人都涌到走道里……
(他退进舱房,整理物件)
船长室的播音:
……营救的飞机已起航……两艘巡弋的炮舰正转向,全速赶来……
船长说,但他不能劝告大家留守船上等候……
船长说,但如果旅客自愿留在船上,他也不能反对,因为,下救生艇并非万全之策,尤其是老人和孩子们。
按此刻船体下沉速度……
排水系统抢修有希望……
(他能加快的是整出最需要的物件,离船)
……决定下艇的旅客,只准随带法律凭证、财产票据、贵重饰品……生命高于一切……身外之物,必须放弃……
镇静,尽快收拾,尽快出舱,一律上甲板列队,切勿……
镇静……务必听从安排……
每艇各配水手,切勿……
(不再注意播音)
刹那间他自省从事外科手术的积习之深,小箱整纳得如此井然妥贴,便像缝合胸腔那样扯起拉链,揿上搭扣。
懊悔选择这次海行。
(经过镜前,瞥一眼自己)
走道里物件横斜,房门都大开半开,没人——他为自己的迟钝而惊诧而疾走而迅跑了。
转角铁梯,一只提包掉落,一个女人也将下跌……抢步托住她,使之坐在梯级上,不及看清面目,已从其手捧膨腹的伛偻呻吟,判知孕妇临产。
搀起,横抱,折入梯下的舱房,平置床上:
“我是医生。”
(走道里还有人急急而过)
他关门。
她把裙子和内裤褪掉。
“第一胎?”
点头,突然大喊,头在枕上摇翻。
“深呼吸……听到吗?深呼吸!”
台灯移近床边,扭定射角,什么东西可以代替皮钳,也许用不着,必需的是断脐的剪子。
“深呼吸,我就来,别哭。”
(回房取得剃须刀再奔过来时船体明显倾侧)
她覆身弓腰而挣扎。
强之仰卧,大岔两腿,曲膝而竖起——产门已开,但看胎位如何……按摩间觉出婴头向下,心一松,他意识到自己的脚很冷。
(海水从门的下缝流入)
她呼吸,有意志而无力气遵从命令,克制不住地要坐起来。
背后塞枕,撕一带褥单把她上身绑定于床架。
双掌推压腹部,羊水盛流……
“吸气……屏住——放松……快吸……吸……屏住——屏住。”
婴儿的脑壳露现,产门指数不够,只能左右各深二指插入,既托又曳……
婴儿啼然宏然,胎盘竟随之下来了。
割断脐带,抽过绒毯将婴儿裹起,产妇下体以褥单围紧……
她抱婴儿,他抱她。
看见也没有看见门的四边的缝隙喷水。
转门钮——
海水墙一样倒进来。
灌满舱房。
(水里灯还亮)
灯灭。

MULTAN, Pakistan (AP) — An enraged mob stoned to death a middle-aged man for allegedly desecrating the Quran in a remote village in eastern Pakistan, police said Sunday.
The custodian of a local mosque said he saw the man burning the Muslim holy book inside the mosque Saturday evening and told others before informing police, according to police spokesman Chaudhry Imran. The violence took place in a village in the district of Khanewal in Punjab province.
Imran said police rushed to the scene, where a man was found surrounded by an angry crowd. Officer Mohammad Iqbal and two subordinates tried to take custody of the man but the group began throwing stones at them, seriously injuring Iqbal and slightly injuring the other two officers.
Munawar Gujjar, chief of Tulamba police station, said he rushed reinforcements to the mosque but they did not arrive before the mob had stoned to death the man and hung his body from a tree.
Gujjar said the victim was identified as Mushtaq Ahmed, 41, of a nearby village.
“The ill-fated man has been mentally unstable for the last 15 years and according to his family often went missing from home for days begging and eating whatever he could find,” he said. He said the body was handed over to the family.
Mian Mohammad Ramzan, the mosque custodian, said he saw smoke inside the mosque, which is adjacent to his home, and rushed over to investigate. He found one Quran burned and saw a man attempting to burn another. He said people were starting to arrive for evening prayers as he was shouting for the man to stop.
Witnesses said a police team that reached the village before the stoning began took custody of a man but the mob snatched him away from them and beat the police as they tried to rescue him.
Later, more officers and constables reached the scene and took custody of the body, they said.
Gujjar, the area police chief, said investigators were scanning available videos to try to identify the assailants. He said police had so far detained about 80 men living in the mosque's surroundings but that about 300 suspects took part.
Prime Minister Imran Khan expressed his anguish over the incident and said he was seeking a report from Punjab's chief minister on the police handling of the case. He said they “failed in their duty.”
“We have zero tolerance for anyone taking the law into their own hands and mob lynching will be dealt with with the full severity of the law,” he said in a tweet hours after the incident.
Khan also asked the Punjab police chief for a report on the actions taken against perpetrators of the lynching.
The killing comes months after the lynching of a Sri Lankan manager of a sporting goods factory in Sialkot in Punjab province on Dec. 3 who was accused by workers of blasphemy.
Mob attacks on people accused of blasphemy are common in this conservative Islamic nation. International and national rights groups say blasphemy accusations have often been used to intimidate religious minorities and settle personal scores. Blasphemy is punishable by death in Pakistan.

BEIJING (AP) — Figure skater Kamila Valieva will testify by video at an appeal hearing Sunday that will decide if the 15-year-old Russian star can still compete at the Beijing OIympics despite an ongoing doping case.
Just 30 minutes ahead of the hearing's scheduled 8:30 p.m. start in Beijing, Court of Arbitration for Sport director general Matthieu Reeb said Valieva was scheduled to speak by video to the panel in a case that has caused havoc with a marquee sport at the Olympics.
“The athlete will be online and she will testify," Reeb said. "We suppose she will speak in Russian, and we have an interpreter.”
Three CAS judges are hearing arguments in a closed-door session in a conference room at a Beijing hotel. Lawyers and officials for the parties are connecting to the case in the Winter Games host city and from Switzerland. Reeb said witnesses and experts would also be involved.
The International Olympic Committee, World Anti-Doping Agency and International Skating Union have challenged a decision by the Russian anti-doping agency to lift an interim ban and try so Valieva can compete in her main event.
Valieva's positive test for a banned heart medication was flagged on Monday — after she helped the Russians win the team event — by a laboratory in Sweden six weeks after the sample was taken in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Reeb said the verdict is expect to be announced in Beijing on Monday afternoon.
That is just over 24 hours ahead of Valieva's scheduled next Olympic event — the women's individual competition. She will be the strong favorite if cleared to skate, and her main challengers will be two Russian teammates.
Earlier Sunday, the teenager at the center of Russia’s latest doping scandal seemed to be the only person without a word to say about it.
Valieva continued to practice amid a sea of media and camera crews as the court prepared the expedited hearing expected to go deep into the night.
Valieva has yet to miss a scheduled practice since word of her positive drug test emerged. On Monday, the reigning European champion helped the Russian skaters win team gold with a dynamic free skate in which she became the first woman to land a quad jump in Olympic competition.
On several occasions, the stress appeared to have rattled Valieva, including during Saturday's practice when she fell and tearfully hugged her embattled coach, Eteri Tutberidze.
“Kamila is a strong girl,” offered Russian ice dancer Nikita Katsalapov, who along with her partner, Victoria Sinitsina, have tried to provide Valieva some much-needed support.
On Sunday, Valieva drew the 26th starting spot among the 30 competitors.
“Victoria had a few minutes to share some words with her,” Katsalapov said. “(Victoria) asked her to, like, calm down just a little bit, even if it's a hard situation around her right now.”
Valieva has yet to speak to the media since the news conference following the Russians' team gold, when the seemingly unbeatable star looked every bit the precocious teenager. Between questions, she was snapping photos and texting, while squeezing the plush mascot given to each medalist.
“We all did such a good job,” she gushed. "I’m very proud of my team.”
Now, all their gold medals hang in the balance, unlikely to be decided until long after the Olympics end.
Most critics taking to social media have largely supported Valieva, leveling their ire instead at Russian coaches and administrators responsible for her well-being. That includes Tutberidze, who also coaches teammates Alexandra Trusova and Anna Shcherbakova, and who has earned a reputation for using up and discarding her young athletes.
“Let's be kind to the 15-year-old who produced a positive drug test because she lives in an institutionalized system where she was most likely guided and trusted the adults around her,” tweeted Mirai Nagasu, a member of the U.S. figure skating team four years ago at the Pyeongchang Games.
Ashley Wagner, another American figure skater who competed at the 2014 Sochi Games, was appalled that Russia is at the center of another doping scandal yet seems to continually get a pass from the International Olympic Committee.
Wagner also took aim at a skating culture that often champions teenagers with little regard for their long-term health.
“Yes, a 15-year-old can be mature, and have a life that is already full of incredible experiences, but still, she is a kid," Wagner said. "She’s not the first kid put in this position and she won’t be the last unless we start taking this seriously.”
At the center of the firestorm is Valieva, a high schooler with fuzzy pink skate guards and a beloved Pomeranian puppy back home. She did a perfect run-through of her record-setting short program during Sunday's early practice at the main rink, then returned for a second session at the nearby practice rink a few hours later.
At one point, as dozens of cameras clicked for pictures, Valieva reached down and touched the ice.
The wait is on to see whether she can again at the Olympics.
“It’s always bad when something like that happens, so we’re very sorry for any athlete," Russian ice dancer Gleb Smolkin said. "I think like everyone else, we are just waiting for the results of this story. We wish Kamila all the best. She’s a great athlete, she’s a great skater. She has a bright future.”

Massingale has received recognition for his work on racial justice, he supports the ordination of women, making celibacy optional for Catholic clergy, and as a gay man, he vocally disagrees with the church's doctrine on same-sex relations.(AP Photo/Jessie Wardarski)
NEW YORK (AP) — Parishioners worshipping at St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in Harlem are greeted by a framed portrait of Martin Luther King Jr. -- a Baptist minister named after a rebellious 16th century German priest excommunicated from the Catholic Church.
The Rev. Bryan Massingale, who sometimes preaches at St. Charles, pursues his ministry in ways that echo both Martin Luthers.
Like King, Massingale decries the scourge of racial inequality in the United States. As a professor at Fordham University, he teaches African American religious approaches to ethics.
Like the German Martin Luther, Massingale is often at odds with official Catholic teaching -- he supports the ordination of women and making celibacy optional for Catholic clergy. And, as a gay man, he vocally disagrees with the church’s doctrine on same-sex relations, instead advocating for full inclusion of LGBTQ Catholics within the church.
The Vatican holds that gays and lesbians should be treated with dignity and respect, but that gay sex is “intrinsically disordered” and sinful.
In his homily on a recent Sunday, Massingale – who became public about being gay in 2019 -- envisioned a world “where the dignity of every person is respected and protected, where everyone is loved.”
But the message of equality and tolerance is one “that is resisted even within our own faith household,” he added. “Preach!” a worshiper shouted in response.
Massingale was born in 1957 in Milwaukee. His mother was a school secretary and his father a factory worker whose family migrated from Mississippi to escape racial segregation.
But even in Wisconsin, racism was common. Massingale said his father couldn’t work as a carpenter because of a color bar preventing African Americans from joining the carpenters’ union.
The Massingales also experienced racism when they moved to Milwaukee’s outskirts and ventured to a predominately white parish.
“This would not be a very comfortable parish for you to be a part of,” he recalled the parish priest saying. Thereafter, the family commuted to a predominantly Black Catholic church.
Massingale recalled another incident, as a newly ordained priest, after celebrating his first Mass at a predominantly white church.
“The first parishioner to greet me at the door said to me: ‘Father, you being here is the worst mistake the archbishop could have made. People will never accept you.‘”
Massingale says he considered leaving the Catholic Church, but decided he was needed.
“I’m not going to let the church’s racism rob me of my relationship with God,” he said. “I see it as my mission to make the church what it says it is: more universal and the institution that I believe Jesus wants it to be.”
For Massingale, racism within the U.S. Catholic Church is a reason for the exodus of some Black Catholics; he says the church is not doing enough to tackle racism within its ranks and in broader society.
Nearly half of Black U.S. adults who were raised Catholic no longer identify as such, with many becoming Protestants, according to a 2021 survey by the Pew Research Center. About 6% of Black U.S. adults identify as Catholic and close to 80% believe opposing racism is essential to their faith, the survey found.
The U.S. Catholic Church has had a checkered history with race. Some of its institutions, such as Georgetown University, were involved in the slave trade, and it has struggled to recruit African American priests.
Conversely, Catholic schools were among the first to desegregate and some government officials who opposed racial integration were excommunicated.
In 2018, U.S. bishops issued a pastoral letter decrying “the persistence of the evil of racism,” but Massingale was disappointed.
“The phrase ‘white nationalism’ is not stated in that document; it doesn’t talk about the Black Lives Matter movement,” he said. “The problem with the church’s teachings on racism is that they are written in a way that is calculated not to disturb white people.”
At Fordham, a Jesuit university, Massingale teaches a class on homosexuality and Christian ethics, using biblical texts to challenge church teaching on same-sex relations. He said he came to terms with his own sexuality at 22, upon reflecting on the book of Isaiah.
“I realized that no matter what the church said, God loved me and accepted me as a Black gay man,” he said.
His ordination in 1983 came in the early years of the HIV/AIDS epidemic that disproportionately affected gay men and Black Americans. Among his first funerals as a priest was that of a gay man whose family wanted no mention of his sexuality or the disease.
“They should have been able to turn to their church in their time of grief,” Massingale said. “Yet they couldn’t because that stigma existed in great measure because of how many ministers were speaking about homosexuality and AIDS as being a punishment for sin.”
Pope Francis has called for compassionate pastoral care for LGBTQ Catholics. However, he has described homosexuality among the clergy as worrisome, and Vatican law remains clear: same-sex unions cannot be blessed within the church. Some dioceses have fired openly LGBTQ employees.
Massingale has a different vision of the church: one where Catholics enjoy the same privileges regardless of sexual orientation.
“I think that one can express one’s sexuality in a way that is responsible, committed, life giving and an experience of joy,” he said.
Massingale has received recognition for his advocacy from like-minded organizations such as FutureChurch, which says priests should be allowed to marry and women should have more leadership roles within the church.
“He is one of the most prophetic, compelling, inspiring, transforming leaders in the Catholic Church,” said Deborah Rose-Milavec, the organization’s co-director. “When he speaks, you know very deep truth is being spoken.”
Along with his many admirers, Massingale has some vehement critics, such as the conservative Catholic news outlet Church Militant, which depicts his LGBTQ advocacy as sinful.
At Fordham, Massingale is well-respected by colleagues, and was honored by the university with a prestigious endowed chair. To the extent he has any critics among the Fordham faculty, they tend to keep their misgivings out of the public sphere.
He says he receives many messages of hope and support, but becoming public about his sexuality has come at a cost.
“I have lost some priest friends who find it difficult to be too closely associated with me because if they’re friends with me, ‘what will people say about them?’” he said.
Massingale remains optimistic about gradual change in the Catholic Church because of Pope Francis and recent signals from bishops in Europe who expressed a desire for changes, including blessing same-sex unions.
“My dream wedding would be either two men or two women standing before the church; marrying each other as an act of faith and I can be there as the official witness to say: “Yes, this is of God,” he said after a recent class at Fordham. “If they were Black, that would be wonderful.”

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (9) warms up before the NFL Super Bowl 56 football game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals, Sunday, Feb. 13, 2022, in Inglewood, Calif. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez)
INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — The Latest on the Super Bowl:
Kickoff at Super Bowl 56 is less than an hour away with both teams warming up on the field at SoFi Stadium.
Joe Burrow is leading the Cincinnati Bengals with Matthew Stafford all decked out in the Rams’ modern throwback white jerseys. This is the first Super Bowl berth for each.
Burrow is the fastest to go from No. 1 overall pick to starting in this game.
Stafford had never won a playoff game before this postseason after the Rams traded for him. Stafford comes in with 49,995 yards passing and 323 TD passes. That’s the most ever for a quarterback making his first Super Bowl appearance. Stafford needs only 209 yards passing to become the sixth player to reach 6,000 in a single season.
___
The “Who Dey!” fans are making themselves known inside SoFi Stadium.
The concourses are packed with people with Bengals jerseys and they are outnumbering Rams jerseys by almost a 4-to-1 margin. The most popular jersey is that of Joe Burrow’s No. 9.
The Bengals faithful aren’t waiting for kickoff either. They’re walking around breaking into chants of “Who Dey!” inside the house of their opponent.
___
Super Bowl 56 could make history at kickoff before either the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals begin the opening drives.
The temperature two hours before kickoff was 85 degrees with the chance for the gauge to go even higher by the time the ball is kicked off. That would make this the hottest Super Bowl ever, topping the record of 84 set on Jan. 14, 1973, at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
California has been dealing with a heat wave with eight locations in the region posting record temperatures in the upper 80s and low 90s earlier this week.
___
Signs all around SoFi Stadium remind people to wear masks, though many people inside for Super Bowl 56 are walking around without masks even when not eating or drinking. President Joe Biden says he thinks people should be careful if not for themselves but for their children and families.
Biden was asked about people going maskless at the Super Bowl by Lester Holt in an interview shown during NBC’s pregame show. The president said he loves how people talk about personal freedom. Biden said he doesn’t consider people not wearing masks as practicing freedom. He says they put their own health and others in jeopardy.
He also encouraged people to get vaccinated and to use the tools to help prevent death and serious illness.
California will be easing mask requirements Tuesday, two days after the Super Bowl.
___
The Cincinnati Bengals are the home team Sunday in the Super Bowl — technically. The home-field advantage belongs all to the Los Angeles Rams.
The NFC champions (15-5) will dress and work out of their usual locker room after spending the night before the big game in their usual hotel. The Rams’ logo is plastered all around and inside SoFi Stadium even with the banners making it clear this is the Super Bowl.
Yes, the Bengals (13-7) are represented inside the stadium with their name and “Who Dey!” mantra opposite the Rams.
This is the second straight Super Bowl where the home team has gotten to play on its own field after Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won a championship a year ago in Raymond James Stadium. Before that, the NFL went 54 years without a team playing a Super Bowl in its home stadium.

Laborers work on concrete slab foundations for one of three Egyptian-funded housing complexes in the Gaza Strip, in the town of Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza, Tuesday, Jan. 25, 2022. After years of working behind the scenes as a mediator, Egypt is taking on a much larger and more public role in Gaza. In the months since it brokered a Gaza cease-fire last May, Egypt has sent crews to clear rubbled and promised to build vast new apartment complexes, and billboards of its president Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, are a common sight.

After years of behind-the-scenes activity in the Gaza Strip, Egypt is going public.
Since mediating a cease-fire between Israel and Gaza's ruling Hamas militant group, Egypt has sent crews to clear rubble and is promising to build vast new apartment complexes. Egyptian flags and billboards praising President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi have sprung up across the Palestinian territory.
It is a new look for the Egyptians, who have spent years working quietly to encourage Israel-Hamas truce talks and reconciliation between rival Palestinian factions.
The shift could help prevent — or at least delay — another round of violence. By presenting itself as a Mideast peacemaker, Egypt could also blunt efforts by the Biden administration and some U.S. lawmakers to hold the country accountable for human rights abuses.
The 11-day Gaza war last May “allowed Egypt to once again market itself as an indispensable security partner for Israel in the region — which it is — which in turn makes it an indispensable security partner for the U.S.,” said Hafsa Halawa, an expert on Egypt at the Middle East Institute, a Washington think tank.
“Gaza is a reminder to everybody, effectively, that you can’t really do anything without Egypt,” she said.
The expanded aid, along with its control over Rafah — the only Gaza border crossing that bypasses Israel — gives Egypt leverage over Hamas, the Islamic militant group that has ruled Gaza since driving out forces loyal to the internationally recognized Palestinian Authority in 2007.
Egypt joined Israel in imposing a crippling blockade on the territory after the Hamas takeover, but both countries have recently taken steps to ease the restrictions, tacitly acknowledging that Hamas rule is here to stay.
After negotiating the informal cease-fire that ended the Gaza war, Egypt pledged $500 million to rebuild the territory and sent work crews to remove rubble.
While it remains unclear how much of that money has been delivered, Egypt is now subsidizing the construction of three towns that are to house some 300,000 residents, according to Naji Sarhan, the deputy director of the Hamas-run Housing Ministry. Work is also under way to upgrade Gaza's main coastal road. Sarhan said the projects will take a year and a half to complete.
“We hope there will be large bundles of projects in the near future, especially the towers that were destroyed in the war,” he said.
Israel leveled four high-rises during the fighting, saying they housed Hamas military infrastructure. It has not publicly released evidence backing up the claims, which Hamas denies. The construction materials will be shipped through Rafah.
Alaa al-Arraj, of the Palestinian contractors’ union, said nine Palestinian companies will take part in the Egyptian projects, which would generate some 16,000 much-needed jobs in the impoverished territory.
The Egyptian presence is palpable. Nearly every week, Egyptian delegations visit Gaza to inspect the work. They have also opened an office at a Gaza City hotel for permanent technical representatives.
Egyptian flags and banners of Egyptian companies flutter atop bulldozers, trucks and utility poles. Dozens of Egyptian workers have arrived, sleeping at a makeshift hostel in a Gaza City school.
Five days a week, Egyptian trucks filled with construction materials flow into Gaza through the Rafah crossing — a visible contrast to the intermittent shipments arriving through an Israeli-controlled crossing.
Suhail Saqqa, a Gaza contractor involved in the reconstruction, said the steady flow of Egyptian materials is critical.
“The goods are not restricted by Israeli crossings, and this makes them momentous,” Saqqa said.
The projects are part of a broader realignment after years in which Gaza was caught in a tug-of-war among Arab states following the upheaval of the 2011 Arab Spring protests.
A short-lived elected Islamist government in Egypt was closely allied with the Gulf country of Qatar and sympathetic to Hamas. It eased the blockade and brokered the end of a brief Gaza war in 2012. But the following year it was overthrown by the Egyptian military.
The Egyptian leader, el-Sissi, who led the overthrow, initially adopted a hard-line stance against Hamas, ordering the destruction of a vast network of smuggling tunnels that had sustained Gaza's economy.
Qatar, which supports Islamist groups across the region, meanwhile stepped in to provide humanitarian aid, including cash-filled suitcases shipped to Gaza with Israel's permission.
The rivalry escalated, with Cairo joining the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain in blockading Qatar from 2017 until a year ago. But relations have improved, and Egypt and Qatar are now cooperating to deliver aid that helps the Hamas government pay its civil servants.
The growing Egyptian role gives Cairo a powerful tool to enforce Hamas' compliance with the truce. It can close Rafah whenever it wants, making it nearly impossible for anyone to travel into or out of Gaza, which is home to more than 2 million Palestinians.
Egypt “can suffocate Gaza in a moment” if its demands are not met, said Maged Mandour, an Egyptian political analyst.
That might be enough to prevent another outbreak of hostilities in the near term. But it doesn't address the underlying conflict that has fueled four wars between Israel and Hamas and countless skirmishes over the last 15 years.
Israel and most Western countries consider Hamas a terrorist organization because of its refusal to accept Israel's existence and its long history of deadly attacks.
Israel has enforced a policy of separation between the Israeli-occupied West Bank and Gaza, which flank Israel and under an internationally endorsed proposal would one day be part of a Palestinian state.
Israel's current government has ruled out any major peace initiatives — even with Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank — but it has taken steps to improve living conditions, including issuing some 10,000 permits for Gazans to work inside Israel.
Relations between Hamas and Abbas' Fatah party plunged to a new low last year after he called off the first elections in more than 15 years. Repeated attempts at reconciliation — many brokered by Egypt — have failed.
But for Egypt and Israel, and for a U.S. administration focused on larger crises elsewhere — preserving the status quo in Gaza might be enough.
“Egypt wants understandings or even pressure on Hamas so the situation won't explode,” said Talal Oukal, a Gaza-based political analyst.

Fluttr dating app
A new British dating app is promising to eradicate Tinder Swindler-style romance fraud, which cost duped daters almost £100m last year, by ensuring that all members complete biometric ID verification before they digitally mingle.
Fluttr, which claims to be the first UK online dating app to use such technology to improve user safety, is launching on Valentine’s Day in the hope of getting a boost from singletons looking to change their relationship status.
The issue of romance fraud, catfishing and fake profiles has been put into the spotlight following the release of Netflix documentary The Tinder Swindler, which tells the true story of a man who went to extraordinary lengths to scam women for millions after meeting them online.
The pandemic, when online dating was the only mixing that was allowed, has driven a huge surge in scams costing those duped £92m in the UK last year.
“We want to rid the world of Tinder Swindlers and create a safe space free from the fake profiles used to defraud, catfish and abuse online daters,” said Rhonda Alexander, the chief executive and co-founder of Fluttr. “We’re reclaiming the fun of online dating by using digital ID verification and AI technology to create an environment that is secure enough for people to do everything from connecting with real people to falling in love.”
According to the UK’s cybercrime and fraud reporting centre, Action Fraud, 8,863 cases were reported to the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau between November 2020 and October last year. This is a 27% increase on the previous annual figure of 6,968 cases, which span simple acts of deception to organised scamming operations involving fake video calls and websites, the previous year.
Daters who strike up online relationships between Christmas and Valentine’s Day tend to be the most susceptible to romance fraud, according to official figures.
“Requests for money often are highly emotive, such as criminals claiming they need money for emergency surgery, medical care, or to pay for tickets and travel documents to visit the victim if they are overseas, even a debt that must be paid urgently,” says Richard Bromley, fraud risk manager at banking and payment app Revolut. “The scammers often pretend to work overseas, in the military, as a doctor or in an oil rig.”

Fluttr has partnered with digital verification firm Yoti, which has clients including the NHS, Post Office and National Union of Students, to ensure all would-be daters are providing the correct personal details matched to government-issued documents.
The subscription-only service, which says it will not run in-app ads or store user data, is looking to drive sign-ups with a promotional offer of £9.99 a month with the typical price planned to be £14.99.
The company is majority owned by Ethical Social Group, a UK-based technology company that aims to positively change social media platforms. It is funded by a small group of mostly UK-based private investors.

Rudy Giuliani attends the funeral of fallen NYPD officer Wilbert Mora, at St Patrick's Cathedral, in New York, on 2 February.
Rudolph Giuliani, who was prominent in Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election result, is considering giving testimony to the congressional committee investigating the deadly January 6 Capitol insurrection, the New York Times reported on Sunday.
The specter of evidence from Trump’s former attorney and close adviser about maneuverings inside the White House in early 2021 to prevent Democrat Joe Biden taking office comes at the end of an already turbulent week for the former Republican US president.
The Washington Post reported on Thursday that Trump took boxes of records, including top secret documents, with him to Mar-a-Lago, his Florida retreat, when he left office, in possible violation of strict government record-keeping laws.
And an upcoming book from the New York Times’s Maggie Haberman claims that Trump periodically clogged White House toilets by attempting to flush away printed papers. Trump has denied the allegations.
Sunday’s report, quoting three anonymous sources, says Giuliani, who is also the former mayor of New York city and a failed Republican candidate for president, is negotiating with the bipartisan select committee over giving evidence in person, or submitting a deposition, but adds that he has not yet agreed to cooperate.
Giuliani is understood to have significant knowledge of Trump’s plotting to unfairly retain power, and is reported to have been at the center of an unprecedented plan to order the department of homeland security to seize voting machines in contested states.
The Times article suggests Giuliani could be seeking to avoid a costly legal fight over a subpoena the committee issued last month, and trying to evade a criminal referral for contempt of congress, by dangling the promise of testimony.
However, like other members of Trump’s inner circle, he has so far resisted efforts to get him to talk. Giuliani had been due to appear before the committee last Tuesday and, according to the Times, has been allowed to reschedule “at his request”.
In November, Steve Bannon, a former Trump adviser, pleaded not guilty to criminal contempt of Congress for his refusal to comply, while the House of Representatives has recommended charges for the former White House chief of staff in the Trump administration, Mark Meadows.
Trump has railed against the bipartisan investigation into the aftermath of his election defeat, which included his inciting of the Capitol riot that claimed five lives.
Several senior Republicans, meanwhile, including Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell, have criticized the party’s censure of Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney, the two Republican members of Congress sitting on the committee, and the Republican National Committee’s controversial characterization of the Capitol breach as “legitimate political discourse”.
McConnell said: “It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election, from one administration to the next.”
He added that it was “not the job” of the Republican party to single out members “who may have different views from the majority”.

A fallen tree is seen in New York, Tyneside
An energy company has thanked “honest” customers who did not try to cash compensation cheques for trillions of pounds sent out in error.
Compensation is being paid to tens of thousands of people who were left without power when severe “once in a generation” winds swept across the UK in November last year during Storm Arwen.
Northern Powergrid admitted on Sunday it did not mean to send out cheques for trillion-pound sums to 74 customers in the north of England, with some customers receiving more than £2.3tn.
The energy firm blamed a clerical error in which the customers’ energy meter numbers were used instead of the amount payable.
The mistake came to light when one customer contacted Northern Powergrid on Twitter to share a photo of the cheque he had received.
Thank you for our compensation payment @Northpowergrid for the several days we were without power following #stormarwen Before I bank the cheque however, are you 100% certain you can afford this? #trillionpounds pic.twitter.com/z5MNc2Nxl1
— Gareth Hughes (@gh230277) February 12, 2022

He wrote: “Thank you for our compensation payment, Northern Powergrid, for the several days we were without power following Storm Arwen. Before I bank the cheque, however, are you 100% certain you can afford this?”.
The picture shows the customer had been written a cheque for £2,324,252,080,110.
The tweet accrued more than 27,000 likes in 24 hours, as others joined in to poke fun at the error. “Bank it! Then share it equally between us all,” one Twitter user wrote. “I think you own Northern Powergrid now,” another joked.
Specsavers even got in on the joke, tweeting “Hang on a minute …”
Hang on a minute...
— Specsavers (@Specsavers) February 13, 2022
The supplier confirmed 74 of their customers with Halifax and Newcastle postcodes had been given compensation cheques with an incorrect payment amount.
A spokesperson for Northern Powergrid said: “As soon as we identified the clerical error, which was caused by the electricity meter reference number being incorrectly quoted as the payment sum, we ensured all 74 customers’ cheques were stopped so they could not be cashed.
“We have been investigating how this error happened and carrying out checks of previous payments. All indications are that this was an isolated incident.
“We thank those customers who were honest and contacted us and we have been making contact directly over the weekend with all 74 customers affected to make them aware, apologise for the error and reassure them that a correct payment will be issued to them on Monday.”

Valérie Pécresse
The rightwing French presidential candidate Valérie Pécresse vowed to crack down on immigration as she held her first big rally on Sunday amid competition from the growing far right and defections from her party to the centrist leader Emmanuel Macron.
“There is no sovereignty without borders,” Pécresse said on stage in Paris as more than 6,000 people waved French flags in support of the first female presidential candidate for Les Républicains, the traditional rightwing party of Jacques Chirac and Nicolas Sarkozy.
Pécresse, who on a recent trip to Greek migrant camps said she was not against “barbed wire” to keep migrants out of Europe, told the rally that she would support the building of barriers and “even walls” on the edge of Europe if the countries on the frontline wanted it. It was a clear reference to her rival, the controversial, far-right TV pundit Éric Zemmour, who this week suggested building a Donald Trump-style anti-immigration “wall” around the edges of the EU.
A former budget minister under Sarkozy, Pécresse, 54, wants to be seen as the only feasible rival to Macron ahead of the April election. But she faces the serious challenge of whether she can make it to the second round runoff. The far right has risen in force to represent about 30% of the vote in current polls, and is split between two candidates, Marine Le Pen, running for the third time, and the newcomer Zemmour. Both are hovering around the same score as Pécresse in the polls.
At the rally, Pécresse cited her heroes, Britain’s Margaret Thatcher and Germany’s Angela Merkel, as “women who always defended their people”, saying she wanted to create a “New France” of law and order, with tight controls on immigration and quotas for migrants. She said she would also oppose what she termed woke movements, which she said threatened to “demolish French identity”, tellling the rally that as leader of the Île-de-France region, which includes Paris and its surrounding area, she had banned “burkinis” or full-body swimsuits, from pools. To cheers from the hall, she said: “For me, the headscarf is not a piece of clothing like any other. It’s not a religious prescription. It’s a sign of the submission of a woman.” She criticised Macron’s government for refusing to ban the Muslim headscarf from competitive sports.
Pécresse repeated her promise that “the salaries of French people will increase by 10% during my presidency”, and said she would decentralise France, attacking Macron for a top-down leadership style and high public spending, which she said had tipped France into dangerous debt.
A fluent Russian-speaker, Pécresse delved into international affairs, saying that under Macron, France had been “humiliated” on the international scene, including over the Aukus defence agreement between Australia, the US and the UK.
While Macron is at 24% in the first round, according to the latest Cevipof poll for Le Monde, Pécresse is at 15.5%, with Le Pen at 15% and Zemmour at 14.5%.
Without naming Zemmour or Le Pen, Pécresse told the crowd: “The extremists are lying to you. Refuse the venom of their nostalgia. Don’t let anger and fear win.”
Pécresse is under pressure from her party to pull ahead of her far-right rivals in the polls just as president Macron is expected to declare his re-election bid this month.

But she suffered a blow this week on immigration when Natacha Bouchart, the rightwing mayor of Calais, broke ranks and announced she would support Macron for the presidential race.
Bouchart is an outspoken critic of the situation of migrants wanting to reach Britain from the northern French coast on small boats. Bouchart said Macron had “listened attentively” to the problems of Calais and increased government involvement. She said she was supporting Macron “in the general interest of Calais”.
Pécresse has failed to dominate the political debate with her policy ideas, in part because she is seen as attempting to cover all ideological bases in a divided party.
She is seen as hailing from the moderate, centrist wing of the right, which Macron himself has won over by appointing two rightwing prime ministers. But Pécresse is also veering very hard right to win over the increasingly anti-immigration line on French national identity in her own party. Pollsters say her messaging to voters is not always clear.
Chloé Morin, a political analyst who interviewed Pécresse on her communication style for a new book, We Get The Politicians We Deserve, said the rightwing candidate had been accused of appearing too studious and lacking spontaneity on screen. But Pécresse has criticised those who “act” in front of the cameras.
Morin added: “Today, part of Pécresse’s space is occupied by Emmanuel Macron, who has the advantage of being the president in office … he has stifled her ground on the economy. And on the other side, she’s facing serious competition from Éric Zemmour and Marine Le Pen, who have the advantage of being in a more populist register of one-upmanship and can make themselves more audible in a media world that values clashes and buzz. They are more audible than Pécresse, who has to be more measured.”
Meanwhile, Le Pen and Zemmour continued their own vicious battle to win far-right voters, with another defection from Le Pen’s National Rally party. Stéphane Ravier, Le Pen’s only senator, jumped ship to Zemmour saying he was best able to “unite” the far right.

Saudi Aramco said it had transferred 4% of its shares to the kingdom's Public Investment Fund.
Saudi Arabia has transferred shares worth $80bn to its sovereign wealth fund as the oil-rich nation hopes to rival Norway and Singapore’s state-managed funds and invest in green projects.
Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Saudi Arabia’s de facto ruler, said 4% of shares in Saudi Aramco, the world’s biggest oil exporter, would be transferred to the kingdom’s sovereign wealth fund as part of efforts to recalibrate the oil-dominated economy.
The transfer is the latest sign that Saudi Arabia wants to open up the oil giant and “crown jewel” of the Saudi economy, the Arab world’s largest.
The crown prince, who was blamed by the US for sanctioning the murder of the Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, was quoted as saying the “transfer of 4% of Aramco shares to the Public Investment Fund (PIF) … is part of the kingdom’s long-term strategy to support the restructuring of its economy”.
He said the kingdom wants the investment fund to have $1tn in assets by the end of 2025. The fund, the centrepiece of official moves to end economic reliance on oil, had less than half that amount before this deal.
Norway’s sovereign wealth fund, the world’s largest, said last month it earned a return of 14% on its $1.3tn of investments, much of it from the sale of state-owned oil supplies. Singapore’s Temasek investment fund is worth more than $300bn.
Crown Prince Mohammed stressed that the Saudi state would remain the dominant Aramco shareholder with a 94% stake. He is also head of the sovereign PIF.
Aramco shares finished down by 0.6% in Sunday trading after the announcement. But experts said the share switch would strengthen the sovereign fund.
The oil giant raised $6bn in Islamic bonds in June last year so that it could pay dividends to the new shareholders.
But Aramco announced $30.4bn in profits for the third quarter of 2021, a massive rise from $18.8bn for the same quarter the previous year, as oil prices took off again.

Three beluga whales swim together in an acclimation pool after arriving at Mystic Aquarium, in Connecticut, on 14 May 2021.
The second of five whales brought from Canada to Connecticut’s Mystic aquarium last year for research purposes has died.
The aquarium announced on its website that the female had been receiving intensive care for the past several months for multiple health issues but died early Friday morning. A necropsy was to be performed to determine the cause of death.
“Veterinarians and animal care experts at Mystic Aquarium, with the support of veterinarians and animal husbandry members from other aquariums worldwide, devoted the full capacity of their expertise to the whale, providing round-the-clock medical treatment, testing, and 24-hour monitoring,” the aquarium said in a statement.
A male beluga that had been named Havok, who had a pre-existing gastrointestinal issue, died in August.
The two whales were among five brought to Mystic last spring from Marineland, a themed zoo and amusement park, in Niagara Falls, Ontario, after a lengthy battle to obtain permits from both the US and Canadian authorities.
Animal rights activists had sued unsuccessfully to block the transport, alleging a permit granted by the US commerce secretary and National Marine Fisheries Service didn’t adequately address the potential harm to the belugas from being moved to Mystic.
The whales, which ranged in age from seven to 12 at the time of the transport, were born in captivity, and officials say they cannot safely be released into the ocean.
Mystic officials said at the time that the five whales left an overcrowded habitat with about 50 other belugas in Canada.
The Animal Welfare Institute, a Washington DC-based animal protection advocacy organization, called for an investigation into the deaths in a statement on its website.

The Independence Monument and flag of Ukraine are seen on the Independence Square in the centre of Kyiv.
Olaf Scholz will use his trip to Moscow on Tuesday to press home the economic cost of a Russian invasion of Ukraine, German government sources have said in what some European leaders fear could be a last opportunity to defuse the “extremely dangerous” situation on the border between the two eastern countries.
The German chancellor, who has faced criticism at home for cutting a low-key profile in the diplomatic effort around the military buildup on the Ukrainian border until now, first arrives in Kyiv on Monday as US intelligence over the weekend claimed that Russia had accelerated plans for an invasion and could move troops across the border as soon as Wednesday, before the end of the Winter Olympics on 20 February.
Joe Biden spoke to the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, on Sunday morning, after ordering a near-total evacuation of the US embassy in Kyiv.
A White House statement said Biden made clear the US would “respond swiftly and decisively to any further Russian aggression” and the two leaders agreed on the need to continue pursuing diplomacy and deterrence.
“We have seen over the course of the past 10 days, dramatic acceleration in the buildup of Russian forces and the disposition of those forces in such a way that they could launch a military action essentially at any time,” Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, told the CBS News programme Face the Nation.
“But of course, it still awaits the go order. And so therefore, we cannot predict the precise date or time that they make any action.”
Russia denies it plans to invade Ukraine, but there were reports on Sunday of attack and troop-carrying helicopters, being moved close to the Ukrainian border. Moscow failed to reply to a formal request from Ukraine to clarify the purpose of its military manoeuvres in Belarus by the 48-hour deadline set by the Vienna document, an international agreement intended to provide transparency and reduce the risk of war. The Belarus government responded to a similar request for Baltic nations, but said that some of the Russian units on its territory were there to guard its southern border, suggesting they would not be leaving on 20 February, when the military exercises are supposed to end.
A submarine armed with cruise missiles from Russia’s Baltic fleet also sailed through the Bosphorus towards the Black Sea. Meanwhile, Lithuania announced a delivery of Stinger anti-aircraft missiles to Ukraine while the US embassy said a 17th planeload of US military hardware had arrived in Kyiv, including shoulder-fired grenades.
German government circles on Sunday talked of a “very worrying overall picture” on the Ukrainian border but rejected the suggestion that Scholz’s trip represented a “last attempt” at averting a war.

German government sources said Scholz would press home the “unity of the EU, the US and Great Britain” when it came to economic sanctions in response to an invasion. Biden has said a Russian invasion would spell the end of the controversial Nord Stream 2 pipeline, something Scholz has been more reluctant to spell out.
Russian diplomats have shown themselves unimpressed with threats of western sanctions, however. The Kremlin’s ambassador to Sweden told a Swedish newspaper his country “doesn’t give a shit” about economic repercussions.
“Excuse my language, but we don’t give a shit about all their sanctions”, Viktor Tatarintsev told the Aftonbladet newspaper in an interview posted on its website on Saturday evening.
“We have already had so many sanctions and in that sense they’ve had a positive effect on our economy and agriculture,” said the veteran diplomat. “We are more self-sufficient and have been able to increase our exports. We have no Italian or Swiss cheeses, but we’ve learned to make just as good Russian cheeses using Italian and Swiss recipes,” he said.
“New sanctions are nothing positive but not as bad as the west makes it sound”, he added.
Scholz’s options during his trip to Moscow are limited. The Russian president is demanding “security guarantees” from the west, which would effectively undermine the sovereignty of independent states in east-central Europe and the Baltics.
German government sources said on Sunday Scholz would offer Putin a dialogue and seek to find out more what Russia’s grievances entailed. The broadsheet Die Welt said he could stress Ukraine joining Nato is not a realistic prospect in the near future, adding that a compromise whereby Russia would be assured that Ukraine would not join Nato “in the next 10 years” had been discussed in Scholz’s circles as a “thought experiment”, though not as a concrete plan.
Ukraine has expressed an interest in joining since 2002 but it would require the unanimous approval of existing members, based on factors such as a functioning democracy and an absence of “unresolved external territorial disputes”.

Any symbolic concession would however face criticism from the Ukrainian side, whose ambassador in Berlin on Sunday accused the German government of “hypocrisy” over sticking to its restrictive stance on exporting lethal weapons, while continuing to supply Russia with dual-use goods that can be used for arms production.
As recently as 2020, Germany exported such goods worth €366m (£306m) to Russia.
Germany’s vice-chancellor and economy minister said on Sunday that “we could be on the verge of a war in Europe”. “It is absolutely oppressive and threatening”, the Green politician Robert Habeck told broadcaster NTV. He said Scholz’s trip was an important sign: “We won’t leave Ukraine alone.”
Kyiv’s mayor, Vitali Klitschko, told German tabloid Bild am Sonntag an invasion of Ukraine would be only the start of a campaign of Russian aggression that would also threaten states in the Baltics.
“If Olaf Scholz and other leaders of state speak to Vladimir Putin now, they should make clear to him: our entire country will defend itself against an attack and it will have serious consequences”, said the former boxer Klitschko, who spent a large part of his professional career in Germany.
During his trip to Kyiv, Scholz will talk to the Ukrainian president about ways in which Germany could help stabilise Ukraine’s economy after fears of an imminent war have taken a toll on the country’s currency.
Such measures would provide more immediate help to the Ukrainian side than any arms exports, German government circles said on Sunday.
Ukraine’s ambassador to the UK Vadym Prystaiko had earlier complained that the alarms being sounded by the West risked playing into Putin’s hands. “It’s not the best time for us to offend our partners in the world, reminding them of this act which actually not bought peace but the opposite, it bought war,” the diplomat told the BBC.

Ivan Reitman, pictured in 2011.
Ivan Reitman, the influential film-maker and producer behind beloved comedies including Ghostbusters, Animal House and Twins, has died at the age of 75.
Reitman died peacefully in his sleep Saturday night at his home in Montecito, California, his family told the Associated Press. No cause of death was given.
“Our family is grieving the unexpected loss of a husband, father, and grandfather who taught us to always seek the magic in life,” his children Jason Reitman, Catherine Reitman and Caroline Reitman said in a joint statement.
“We take comfort that his work as a film-maker brought laughter and happiness to countless others around the world. While we mourn privately, we hope those who knew him through his films will remember him always.”
Born in Komarmo, Czechoslovakia, in 1946 where his father owned the country’s biggest vinegar factory, Reitman was only four when his family fled communist oppression. They traveled in the nailed-down hold of a barge headed for Vienna.
The family joined a relative in Toronto, where Reitman displayed his show business inclinations: starting a puppet theater, entertaining at summer camps, and playing coffee houses with a folk music group. He studied music and drama at McMaster University and began making movie shorts.
Known for big, bawdy comedies that caught the spirit of their time, Reitman’s big break came with the raucous, college fraternity sendup National Lampoon’s Animal House, which he produced. He directed Bill Murray in his first starring role in Meatballs and then again in Stripes, but his most significant success came with 1984’s Ghostbusters.
Not only did the irreverent supernatural comedy starring Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver and Rick Moranis gross nearly $300m worldwide, it earned two Oscar nominations, spawned a veritable franchise, including spinoffs, television shows and a new movie, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, that opened this last year which his son Jason, also a film-maker, directed.
Among other notable films Reitman directed include Twins, Kindergarten Cop, Dave, Junior and Six Days, Seven Nights. He also produced Beethoven, Old School, EuroTrip and many others, including several for Jason.

Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Dr Dre, Mary J Blige and Snoop Dogg
Even by Super Bowl standards, an event in which the mythologising is as much of a sport as the football, this has been a particularly hyped half-time show. Three weeks before the fact, the NFL released a four-minute trailer, a third as long as the performance itself, which saw Dr Dre, the most important producer in rap history, assemble a superhero cast of 90s hip-hop and R&B legends: Eminem, Mary J Blige and Snoop Dogg as well as Kendrick Lamar, the great west-coast hip-hop talent of his generation, who went to the same Compton high school as Dre.
Yet, despite all that pomp, this felt like a different kind of half-time show, directorially and musically it was more inventive than the normal tropes of marching bands and fake fans on the pitch. There was more collaboration and smart interstitial set-pieces, all brought together by Anderson.Paak’s impressive live band. Just before it began, the NBC hosts whispered it might be the greatest super bowl half-time show ever - it wasn’t far off.
It began with Snopp Dogg, in a regal ultramarine blue tracksuit and Dre atop a set built to look like a Compton street (which included a replica of the trailblazing Black architect Harold Williams MLK memorial outside the Compton Civic Centre). They shared a grin of two men reveling in how far they had come as they performed The Next Episode and California Love (although there was no 2Pac hologram to join them for the latter, despite rumors). The camera panned out to reveal a troupe of dancers free-styling across an aerial map of Compton’s streets, and inside the set’s houses, were more dancers and the band playing on couches, a bustling scene.
Dre and Snoop
From the roof of one of the houses emerged 50 Cent, recreating his classic 2003 video for In Da Club by performing the song upside down, hanging from the ceiling (plus some enjoyable nightclub choreography reminiscent of every birthday party this song has been played at since its release). There was barely time to catch a breath before Mary J Blige stood atop the set, to sing Family Affair and No More Drama, the camera panning between her powerful rooftop vocals and the party scenes below.
She gave way to Kendrick Lamar, emerging with an army of zombie dancers from a series of cardboard boxes to perform Maad City and Alright before Eminem’s set-piece performance of Lose Yourself from 8 Mile. Dre finished with a small tribute to 2Pac, playing the piano riff of I Ain’t Mad At Cha before a moving finale, three generations of artists that Dre mentored, collaborated with and produced, gathered together to watch him perform Still Dre, a song that nods to his unrivaled dominance over west-coast hip-hop.
In one telling, this is the redemption moment for the Super Bowl half-time show. After the NFL came under widespread criticism for failing to back players who took the knee. In 2016, Rihanna, Cardi B, Adele and other high-profile artists were reported to have rejected opportunities to perform at the show in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick. The event had to squeeze by with Maroon 5, surely not the top of any bookers list, and questions about its relevance lingered.

Since then the production has been taken over by Jay Z’s Roc Nation with acclaimed performers like the Weeknd and a celebrated shared slot between Jennifer Lopez and Shakira returning prestige to the slot. Now with five of the defining artists of 90s hip-hop and R&B sharing a stage, led by Dr Dre who, as part of NWA, gave America’s music its most powerful statement against police racism, it could be argued the Super Bowl has regained some credibility among black fans. The choice of artists was enough for at least one police for, in Long Island, to encourage residents to boycott the ceremony.
There were rumors that there would be limits to how much restitution the NFL would allow: reporting in Puck said the NFL had rejected Eminem’s request to take the knee at the ceremony (something they later claimed to be false) and told Dre that he would not be able to include the lyric “still not loving police” in his performance of Still Dre. Yet both those powerful moments did happen. But even they were emotionally overshadowed by Kendrick Lamar emerging from a row of cardboard boxes to perform Alright, the song that was heard at Black Lives Matter performances across the country, now heard at the centerpiece event of a league that had told black athletes five years ago they had no right to protest against racism.
The Super Bowl half-time show remains the biggest gig in the world, an unparalleled live TV audience (not for nothing did Mary J Blige, 51, one of the most decorated R&B singers of all time, describe this performance as “the opportunity of a lifetime”.) Yet this year it felt a little more than about great production values and Pepsi sponsorship. You can’t do much in 12 minutes in the gap between a football game, but everything you can do, Dre did. There will be debates that follow about whether all this powerful symbolism is more than glossy gesture politics, but given the brief they had, you can’t imagine them trying any harder to make this mean something.

wordle game
What began as a daily slice of bliss is in danger of turning into something of a strain, some say.
Some players of the viral word game Wordle have complained that it has become harder since it was bought by the New York Times late last month.
The addictive online game swept the internet over the past few weeks, capturing the hearts and minds of millions, before it was quickly secured by the news giant for an undisclosed seven-figure sum.
But several Wordle players have said they feel that it’s getting more difficult to guess the target word.
“It must be a coincidence, but the NY Times puzzles are hard and suddenly Wordle has questionable words,” author and columnist Anna Spargo-Ryan tweeted over the weekend.

“Two things could be going on,” he said. People may be seeing “a pattern where they may not be any and maybe in the backend something could be different with the sale to the New York Times … but we don’t know”.
Webb acknowledged that with the puzzle’s transfer to the New York Times, the publication may want to “put their mark on it”, adding: “You’d have to imagine they’d be some element of curation there.”
“It could be harder, they could have changed something, we don’t know. But even if they haven’t changed anything … open a dictionary at a random page and you will find a five-letter word in English you don’t know,” he added.
The New York Times has denied any changes have been made to Wordle since the acquisition. “Nothing has changed about the game play,” New York Times communications director Jordan Cohen said in an email.
Created by a Brooklyn-based Reddit engineer Josh Wardle and launched in mid-October, Wordle gives players just six guesses to determine a five-letter word that changes every day.
With the “elegance of a daily newspaper puzzle”, the game’s simplicity is its charm.
Wardle, who designed the game for his puzzle-loving partner, recently spoke of feeling overwhelmed by the game’s viral success. “It going viral doesn’t feel great, to be honest. I feel a sense of responsibility for the players. I feel I really owe it to them to keep things running and make sure everything’s working correctly,” Wardle said.
Worldle’s popularity continues to rise. From 90 daily players in November to 300,000 at the beginning of January, the game is thought to have now attracted nearly 3 million players across the world.

A member of the Ukrainian State Border Guard stands watch at the border crossing between Ukraine and Belarus
The German chancellor, Olaf Scholz, will travel to Kyiv on Monday as western leaders voiced concerns of a Russian invasion of Ukraine could happen at any moment, sending stock markets tumbling and the price of oil soaring.
On the eve of his departure, Scholz said that any Russia attack would lead to “tough sanctions that we have carefully prepared and which we can immediately put into force”.
“(These trips are) about how we can find a way to ensure peace in Europe,” he said.
Scholz and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy are expected to talk about how Germany could help stabilise Ukraine’s economy after fears of an imminent war took a toll on its currency. A moratorium on Ukraine’s eligibility for Nato accession was not on the table for Germany, a German source told Reuters.
The prospect of a Russian invasion sent shares plunging when the trading week began in Asia on Monday morning. The Nikkei in Japan lost 2%, the Hong Kong market was off 1.2%, and futures trade pointed to more selling on European bourses when they open later in the day.
The price of Brent crude soared 1% to a seven-year high of $95.46 over worries that a conflict in the region could disrupt supplies from Russia, a major oil producer.
On Tuesday Scholz is expected to use a trip to Moscow to press home the economic cost of an invasion of Ukraine, German government sources have said.
Meanwhile, Boris Johnson said he would hold further talks with world leaders to bring Russia “back from the brink” of war. His office did not say which world leaders Johnson was hoping to talk to or where he plans to travel, but it was understood he is keen to engage with Nordic and Baltic countries.
On Sunday, Zelenskiy urged Joe Biden to visit Kyiv “in the coming days” in a show of moral support. The White House made no mention of the invitation in its readout of the 50-minute call.
A White House statement said Biden made clear the US would “respond swiftly and decisively to any further Russian aggression” and the two leaders agreed on the need to continue pursuing diplomacy and deterrence. Biden has already ordered a near-total evacuation of the US embassy in Kyiv.
The latest moves come amid a signals in the west that time is running out to find a diplomatic solution to the crisis. US intelligence over the weekend claimed that Russia had accelerated plans for an invasion and could move troops across the border as soon as Wednesday, before the end of the Winter Olympics on 20 February.
Jake Sullivan, the US national security adviser, told the CBS News programme Face the Nation: “We have seen over the course of the past 10 days, dramatic acceleration in the buildup of Russian forces and the disposition of those forces in such a way that they could launch a military action essentially at any time.
“But of course, it still awaits the go order. And so therefore, we cannot predict the precise date or time that they make any action.”
Reflecting the West’s concerns, Dutch airline KLM cancelled flights to Ukraine until further notice. The Ukrainian charter airline SkyUp said on Sunday its flight from Madeira, Portugal, to Kyiv was diverted to the Moldovan capital. And Ukraine’s air traffic safety agency Ukraerorukh issued a statement declaring the airspace over the Black Sea to be a “zone of potential danger” and recommended that planes avoid flying over the sea from 14 to 19 February.
Russia denies it plans to invade Ukraine, but there were reports on Sunday of attack and troop-carrying helicopters being moved close to the Ukrainian border. Moscow failed to reply to a formal request from Ukraine to clarify the purpose of its military manoeuvres in Belarus by the 48-hour deadline set by the Vienna document, an international agreement intended to provide transparency and reduce the risk of war.
The Belarus government responded to a similar request from Baltic nations, but said that some of the Russian units on its territory were there to guard its southern border, suggesting they would not be leaving on 20 February, when the military exercises are supposed to end.
Ukraine’s foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba said the “next step” was requesting a meeting within the next 48 hours for “transparency” about Russia’s plans.
A submarine armed with cruise missiles from Russia’s Baltic fleet also sailed through the Bosphorus towards the Black Sea. Meanwhile, Lithuania announced a delivery of Stinger anti-aircraft missiles to Ukraine while the US embassy said a 17th planeload of US military hardware had arrived in Kyiv, including shoulder-fired grenades.
German government circles on Sunday talked of a “very worrying overall picture” on the Ukrainian border but rejected the suggestion that Scholz’s trip represented a “last attempt” at averting a war.
German government sources said Scholz would press home the “unity of the EU, the US and Great Britain” when it came to economic sanctions in response to an invasion. Biden has said a Russian invasion would spell the end of the controversial Nord Stream 2 pipeline, something Scholz has been more reluctant to spell out.
Scholz’s options during his trip to Moscow are limited. The Russian president is demanding “security guarantees” from the west, which would in effect undermine the sovereignty of independent states in east-central Europe and the Baltics.
German government sources said on Sunday Scholz would offer Putin a dialogue and seek to find out more what Russia’s grievances entailed. The broadsheet Die Welt said he could stress Ukraine joining Nato is not a realistic prospect in the near future, adding that a compromise whereby Russia would be assured that Ukraine would not join Nato “in the next 10 years” had been discussed in Scholz’s circles as a “thought experiment”, though not as a concrete plan.
Ukraine has expressed an interest in joining since 2002 but it would require the unanimous approval of existing members, based on factors such as a functioning democracy and an absence of “unresolved external territorial disputes”.

Vittorio Lai with his family.
Vittorio Lai, nicknamed Pistol, still drives and hunts wild boar, and on Saturday became the latest person in Perdasdefogu, a remote mountain town on the Italian island of Sardinia that set a world record for longevity, to celebrate his 100th birthday.
He will be joined this week by another sprightly centenarian, Piuccia Lai (no relation), who has no qualms about hopping on a plane to visit her sons in Milan, bringing the total number of over-100s in the town to 10 among a population of 1,765.
Sardinia has been identified as one of five regions in the world that have high concentrations of people who have eclipsed the century milestone. There are 534 people across the island who are 100 or older, or 33.6 for every 100,000 inhabitants.
But Perdasdefogu, a town tucked high up in the rugged mountains of south-eastern Sardinia accessible only by a narrow, winding road, is unique in the sense that the number of centenarians in a town of its size is 16 times the national average.
“The presence of 10 centenarians confirms the exceptional longevity of the inhabitants of Perdasdefogu, and moves the bar even higher,” said Luisa Salaris, a demographics professor at the University of Cagliari.
Perdasdefogu shot to fame in 2012 when the Melis family, made up of nine brothers and sisters, entered the Guinness World Records as the oldest living siblings on Earth, with a combined age at the time of 818.
The town’s longest-surviving citizen to date is Consolata Melis, the eldest of the siblings, who died in 2015, aged 108. Antonio Brundu, who turns 104 in March, is the current oldest resident.
Vittorio Lai earned his nickname after killing his first wild boar at the age of 13. “I took my father’s rifle, the head of the hunting group,” he told the newspaper La Nuova Sardegna in an article written by historian Giacomo Mameli. “In those days, hunting freed the town from hunger.”
The whole town ordinarily comes together to mark a 100th birthday, but owing to coronavirus restrictions, Lai celebrated by treating family and a few friends to lunch. He said he has worked “hundreds” of jobs over the course of his life. “I was a shepherd, a labourer, a warehouse worker and a cook, but without knowing how to cook.” His wife, Maria, is 97. “She wanted to become a nun,” said Lai. “And so I said: ‘OK then, I’ll become a priest or a friar.’”
Piuccia Lai is celebrating her birthday on 21 February in Milan, where she will meet the mayor, Giuseppe Sala. “I’ve lived through hunger and war, during fascism and democracy, and voted as a woman for the first time on 2 January 1946,” she said. “I’ve met 10 popes, from Pius X to Bergoglio.”
Several scientists have studied Perdasdefogu, with explanations for the town’s longevity ranging from clean air and active lifestyles to a diet containing plenty of fresh vegetables. Lai said he never leaves the table with a full stomach, eats little meat and drinks little coffee.
For Mameli, the key is the town’s sense of community. “It’s close-knit; there are some exceptions, but we all love and look out for each other.”

People walk using their mobiles phones in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
A China-style internet gateway scheduled to be imposed in Cambodia this week would grant the government far greater powers to conduct mass surveillance, censor and control the country’s internet, rights groups have warned.
Human rights experts and media advocates fear the gateway could be a step towards the kind of censorship enforced through China’s Great Firewall – though some question what technical capacity Cambodia’s systems currently have, and say the process has lacked transparency.
Under the changes, all online traffic must pass through a National Internet Gateway (NIG), which the government says will protect national security, help with tax collection and preserve “social order, culture and national tradition”.
Rights experts say the internet is one of the few spaces that still allows for free expression, including criticism of the government of prime minister Hun Sen, who has been in power for more than three decades. Under his rule, the main opposition party has been outlawed, independent media severely curtailed and peaceful protesters have faced violence.
Having stamped out dissent elsewhere, the government is now seeking to further expand its control over the online sphere, rights advocates have warned. “They want to have a hermetically controlled political environment where they are lord and master and anything they say goes - and anybody who objects gets sent to prison,” said Phil Robertson, deputy Asia director of Human Rights Watch.
Internet service providers were required to reroute their traffic through the gateway by this week.

The Cambodian government did not respond when asked about the timeframe for implementation, or the human rights concerns which have been raised. It has previously rejected comments by UN experts that the legislation is repressive, with the country’s Permanent Mission to the UN Offices in Geneva accusing the experts of making unfounded allegations and interfering in Cambodia’s domestic affairs.

The authorities have increasingly taken steps to clamp down on online expression, including by jailing individuals over posts, messages and even music. Last year, at least 35 individuals were arrested, five had arrest warrants issued against them, and 21 were convicted for online posts, according to the Cambodian Centre for Human Rights (CCHR).
Those targeted in recent years include the rapper Kea Sokun, who spent a year in prison after he was convicted of incitement in 2020 in relation to music he shared online; three activists belonging to the environmental group Mother Nature Cambodia, who had shared information on social media about plans to march to the prime minister’s house; and Kak Sovannchhay, the teenage son of an activist and opposition politician, who spent four-and-a-half months in pre-trial detention. Sovannchhay, who is autistic and was 16 at the time, had defended his father in comments made on Telegram, and shared Facebook posts critical of the government.
The authorities have also found other ways to suppress online information, including ordering internet service providers to block certain pages, such as news sites. According to civil society groups, internet service providers have also slowed down the speed of the internet to disrupt their activities, including livestreams, while activists and media have faced localised power cuts.
“It is therefore very likely that the NIG will become another instrument for the Royal Government of Cambodia to control and monitor the flow of information in Cambodia,” said Sopheap Chak, CCHR’s executive director.
The gateway, she added, facilitates mass surveillance, the interception and censorship of digital communications, and the collection of personal data.
Naly Pilorge, director of the Cambodian League for the Promotion and Defence of Human Rights, said the enforcement of such a gateway would be devastating, and that it violated the constitution, as well as several conventions and treaties to which Cambodia is a signatory.
“It would completely close off the ability of citizens to express themselves to share information. It would lead to even more of a closure in terms of civil society, in terms of activism in terms of issues that are affecting Cambodians,” she said.

There are also concerns the system could slow down internet speeds, damaging business activity and foreign investment.

Despite the looming deadline for implementation, there is little information about how the gateway will work, said Robertson. The Cambodian government might want to give the impression that it was introducing a China-style firewall, he added, but it was not clear if it had the capacity to do so.
“There’s no clarity on how they’re doing this, what sort of form it is going to take, what sort of technology is being brought in,” he said. The law will, however, likely lead to a rise in self-censorship, just as the country prepares for commune elections in June, and a national election next year.
“If you’re putting something up on the internet that is critical of the government, who knows maybe the NIG is coming to get you?” said Robertson

The team at Slunks hair salon in Cardiff have switched to a four-day working week without reduced pay.
Hair stylist Joel McCauley had seen too many colleagues burn out after a perpetual cycle of work, eat and sleep, so when he opened his own salon in Cardiff he was determined to do things differently.
Staff at Slunks in Morgan Arcade now work a four-day week for no less pay than for working five days. They are happier, more productive and provide a better service, said McCauley.
“When you have more time, you can think about life in a different way,” he said. “At work, you’re likely to have more energy and fewer non-productive days. Outside work, you can be a better person, a better parent, a better member of the community. I feel better, staff feel better – we’re all working better.”
More people could be working a four-day week across Wales after the country’s future generations commissioner, Sophie Howe, called on Monday for the Welsh government to launch a shorter working week trial.
Howe, whose role – enshrined in law – is to protect the interests of future generations, said the public sector should lead the way and inspire other businesses to follow suit. She acknowledged there would be a heavy cost to the public sector in the short term, but argued that it could eventually mean increased productivity and savings for society if it led to a healthier workforce and more cohesive population.
Howe said: “It’s clear that following the pandemic, people across Wales are re-evaluating their priorities in life and looking for a healthier work-life balance.
“The escalating demands of caring for loved ones due to an ageing population and an increase in mental health issues, exacerbated by working long hours, are just some of the factors that make a shorter working week more appealing.
“The working week has not changed for more than 100 years and now seems the perfect opportunity for the Welsh government to commit to a pioneering trial and build evidence for greater change across Wales.”
A report by the commissioner and thinktank Autonomy found that about two-thirds of Welsh people would ideally work a four-day week and almost 60% said they would support the Welsh government piloting a scheme to move towards it.
The report says moving to a four-day week in the Welsh public sector could be particularly effective as sickness rates are high and giving staff an extra day off could help to tackle this.
It says it would foster better cohesion by giving people more time to take part in community groups and projects, and could cut carbon emissions by reducing commuting. It also argues that a shorter working week would especially help women, who have less free time on average than men.
The report calculates that if the public sector in Wales moved to a four-day week for full-time workers, an extra 27,000 employees would be needed, which would cost £1bn. If productivity gains were to increase above 10%, the cost of the policy “would quickly become negligible”.
Jack Sargeant, the chair of the Welsh parliament’s petitions committee and a supporter of a shorter working week, said: “We work some of the longest hours in Europe and this is clearly detrimental to workers’ lives and, the evidence suggests, to productivity as well.
“Those that oppose it make the same tired arguments that opponents of progress have always made. The workplace and our lives are changing. Automation and AI will change it even more. A shorter week would be a great way of giving working people some of the fruits of these changes.”
Shavanah Taj, the general secretary of Wales TUC, said: “The fight for decent working hours has always been at the heart of union campaigning. We welcome this call for a shorter working-week trial.”
A Welsh government spokesperson said: “We recognise potential benefits in a shorter working week and some businesses in Wales are already expressing an interest in moving in that direction. We are considering the progress of pilots in other countries and examining the lessons Wales can learn.”
Chelsea Thompson, 28, a salon manager at Slunks, said she was more focused and content. “I’m commuting less and when I’m in, I’m definitely more focused. Since we started the four-day week, everyone says they’re happier. People feel well-rested, mentally prepared. That extra day is for me. I go for long walks, listen to a podcast, see friends who don’t have weekends off. Time is precious.”

Scene from Friends
Friends has been stripped of its lesbian storyline for the Chinese re-release of the sitcom, prompting censorship concerns.
On Friday a number of entertainment platforms including Tencent – which made headlines earlier this month for carrying a version of Fight Club with a totally different ending – began airing the first season of Friends, which was originally broadcast in 1994.
Fans who had seen the programme before were quick to notice the absence of several scenes, including those relating to the character Ross explaining that his ex-wife, Carol, is gay. Other viewers reported cuts or mistranslations of lines by LGBTQI characters or scenes that included mildly suggestive references to strip clubs and orgasms.
On China’s Weibo the apparent censorship became a trending topic, with tens of millions of views of related hashtags and comments.
“Covering your mouth and ears does not mean non-existence,” said one user, while another wondered how the censors would treat a storyline in later seasons, of Phoebe acting as a surrogate for her brother and his partner.
One viewer praised the show for having portrayed LGBTQI characters in “a natural and normal way” at a time when few other pop culture products were.
“On the other hand, in today’s China, under a similar environment, not only is there no TV drama with high popularity and high reputation, which can insert gay characters into the play in a similar way, but even introduced foreign TV shows don’t dare to completely show gay content,” they said. “I don’t understand why this line was cut, why it’s still the same here after 30 years, we are even going backwards.”
The backlash was itself soon censored and replaced with a more positive “why is Friends so popular” hashtag.
Friends is hugely popular in China and was previously streamed online and uncensored until 2018. DVDs of the show are also widely available. However, there has been an apparent rise in censorship of entertainment in recent years, in an increasingly politically sensitive environment under Xi Jinping, which has also targeted non-traditional family values and culture.
Guidelines first introduced in 2016 banning the depiction of gay people on TV, as well as presentation of extramarital affairs and one night stands, have tightened further. Last year regulators ordered broadcasters to avoid what it called “abnormal aesthetics”, and “sissy men”. LGBTQI online accounts, university groups, and publications have been shut down.
Foreign productions have also struggled to gain access to China. Major Hollywood blockbusters, including the recent Marvel film Shang-Chi, have been denied releases apparently over perceived slights to China or its government. Earlier this month the discovery that the plot of Fight Club had been changed on Tencent to tell viewers police had “rapidly figured out the whole plan and arrested all criminals” sparked widespread backlash and subsequent restoration of the original ending. Scenes were also cut from Bohemian Rhapsody, the 2019 film about Queen and Freddie Mercury, before its theatrical release in Chinese cinemas.

Banners of Bashar al-Assad hang from ruined buildings
The manipulation of aid by Bashar al-Assad’s government in Syria is a unique and persistent form of control that needs to be urgently addressed, according to a new report.
Based on interviews with UN officials and humanitarian workers in Syria, the 70-page Rescuing Aid in Syria report has been released by a Washington thinktank, the Centre for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS).
“There aren’t many situations in our history, where someone who has committed mass atrocities to the level that the Assad government has, stays in power and controls the aid apparatus,” said the author, Natasha Hall.
The Assad regime has such a tight grip on aid groups’ access, including through visa approvals, that it had become normalised for relatives of senior regime officials to have jobs within UN bodies, the report says.
“How could you not know who these people are, when you have their CV in front of you? I find it a dereliction of duty,” one UN official said on condition of anonymity. “This is a massive protection issue, not only for the beneficiaries, but for other national staff you have working with you.”
A spokesperson for the United Nations Development Programme said: “The UNDP has found no evidence of having contracted with these entities, nor have we found any records of them in our vendor database. We are nevertheless carrying out a thorough internal review to verify that no such contracting took place either by UNDP or our subcontractors.”
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said it “hires its staff based on merit, and on their ability to deliver”.
The spokesperson said: “Employees are expected to fully abide with humanitarian principles and the UN code of conduct. All UN staff are required to take an oath to act in the best interest of the UN and not to seek or accept instructions in regard to performance of duties from any government or other source external of the organisation, as mandated by the UN staff regulations.”

Relations are warming between the Assad regime and Arab states such as Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Algeria – as well as with the US, which is reworking sanctions in the war-torn country. Meanwhile, the report says, there has been an increase in threats, arbitrary detention and torture of Syrian aid staff in the past year.
Employees of one local humanitarian organisation were detained and killed, and their relatives ordered to evacuate their houses or be arrested.
The threat of coercion and murder hanging over aid workers prevents independent monitoring of UN agencies and NGOs, the report said.
“If the Assad government is going to stay in place, which it seems a lot of governments are resigned to, this needs to be sorted out, because aid is probably going to continue to go into this hostile environment,” Hall said.

Beyond the diversion of UN food to the military, people directly responsible for human rights violations are benefiting.
The report found Mohamad Hamsho, a businessman close to the Fourth Division, an elite army unit, and the president’s brother, Maher al-Assad, had won UN procurement contracts to strip metals in areas retaken by the government and rework them for sale at his Hadeed Metal Manufacturing Company.
“It’s a very perverse cycle that’s being created,” said Hall.
The UNDP allegedly contracted the Aleppo Defenders Legion, a pro-regime militia responsible for forcibly displacing residents, to clear rubble and rehabilitate the city they helped destroy, as outlined also by Human Rights Watch.
Hadeed Metal Manufacturing Company.

Sara Kayyali, HRW’s Syria researcher, said: “The UN did zero human rights due diligence when contracting people; we’re not talking about them contracting for tens of thousands of dollars, we’re talking about millions of dollars that are going to … companies owned by individuals who we know have committed human rights violations.
“When you consider the UN is one of the primary ways that money is going into Syria … [and] plays a huge role in revitalising the economy, it’s playing into the hands of [the regime’s] war economy.”
The OCHA spokesperson said the UN’s activities were governed by “core humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality and independence”.
They added: “Some governments, such as the one in Syria, insist that UN agencies work with a list of authorised implementing partners. However, we choose our partners from that list based on our own assessments of their capacity to deliver and following due-diligence processes.”
When aid was transported across lines of conflict or control, in both north-west and east Syria, known as cross-line shipments, there have been thefts and medical equipment has been distributed haphazardly, the report states.
Only 43,500 food portions made it to opposition-controlled north-west Syria in cross-line convoys compared with 1.3m delivered from Turkey in November. Supplies took four months to reach people in need as it sat in warehouses because the regime would not allow opposition-linked NGOs to distribute it, Hall said.
The manipulation of aid had grown in the past decade of war, and a thorough audit and evaluation of aid in Syria was necessary, Hall said.
“This is part of a systematic issue that needs to be resolved because it will be copied over and over again by other actors … who are learning lessons from what the Syrian regime has done,” Hall said.

Anti-vaxxers in France are buying fake vaccine passes online to get around the country’s Covid restrictions, which are often promoted on mainstream social media platforms, research has revealed.
Many buying the forgeries, which can be used across the European Union (EU), are being redirected from websites such as Instagram and Facebook to the Telegram encrypted messenger where they can be bought discreetly, according to a study by the Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD).
The report also raised concerns that social media algorithms are automatically directing people disillusioned with the French government’s handling of the pandemic towards far-right online spaces.
ISD’s research coordinator, Zoé Fourel, who led the study, said that while some Facebook groups dedicated to the sale of fake Covid passes had about 1,000 members, there were Instagram accounts with as many as 17,000 followers.
“I think, in terms of platforms, the main issue here is the scale to which this is available and with platforms such as Facebook and Instagram,” she said. “Obviously because they have such a wide audience, they are enabling this content on a larger scale.
“For Instagram, one of the most alarming things we observed was that its algorithm is actually recommending accounts that are offering fake sanitary or vaccination services, so if you are a person who is following a couple of accounts with Covid disinformation or anti-vax content, your algorithm will recommend more accounts offering fake passes.
“There is a really large issue here with the business model and the design of the platform and how it operates.”
France introduced “health passes” during the coronavirus pandemic, which also allowed people to prove their status with a negative lateral flow test, as well as being vaccinated.
But the French government last month gave approval for a vaccine pass that excludes unvaccinated people from restaurants, sports arenas and other venues. That has made acquiring a fake pass, which can be used across the EU member states, more desirable for anti-vaxxers, according to ISD.
Fourel said: “These passes are valid across the EU, so we can see in, for example, a Telegram group that’s dedicated to European far-right movements and there are people selling fake passes. It really is a transnational issue.
“You can be in Italy and sell a fake pass to French people and we have seen people from France being redirected in the comments section to Italian Telegram channels.”
ISD is calling for more accountability for social media companies, including Snapchat, Meta – which owns Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp – and Telegram, as well as legislation to protect users.
Fourel said the upcoming application of the European Digital Services Act, which aims to tackle the spread of disinformation and illegal content, was “necessary”.
She added: “When it comes to platforms, it’s quite clear that there needs to be more proactivity to take measures to counter the spread of this type of content because clearly, this does violate the policies that are upheld by them.
“There also needs to be more proactivity on behalf of the French government.”
Meta says it prohibits anyone from buying or selling fake, or genuine, medical documents on its platforms, including Covid vaccine certificates. It added that it would remove adverts when identified and disable any accounts, pages or groups that break its rules.
The Guardian also contacted Snapchat and Telegram for comment.

Kamila Valieva of the Russian Olympic Committee will continue to skate at the Winter Olympics in Beijing after being cleared by Cas.
Kamila Valieva, the 15-year-old Russian skater who charmed these Winter Olympics before her positive drugs test sent shockwaves across the world, has sensationally been cleared to compete in the individual event due to the “exceptional circumstances” of her case.
The court of arbitration for sport, which delivered its verdict shortly before 2pm Beijing time, said that ban Valieva while her doping case was ongoing “would cause her irreparable harm”.
The three-person Cas panel also ruled that the World Anti-Doping Code was unclear when it came to suspended “protected persons” under 16 years of age and said that a 44-day delay in reporting Valieva’s positive test for the banned angina drug trimetazidine had affected her ability to mount a defence.
“The panel considered that preventing the athlete from competing at the Olympic Games would cause her irreparable harm in these circumstances,” Matthieu Reeb, secretary general for the court of arbitration for sport, told the world’s press.
Reeb added that the delay in Valieva being tested in Russia on Christmas Day and her sample being reported by a laboratory in Sweden on 8 February, had been “extremely unfortunate as it affects not only the athlete, but also the organisers of the Olympic Games.
“In other words, we will not have this case if these anti-doping test procedures would have been completed in one week or 10 days as it is generally the case,” he added.
Reeb also stressed that the panel was “concerned” that if a permanent suspension was imposed on Valieva and she was later cleared or given a very low sanction it would have caused “serious damage”.

As a result, Cas said it was rejecting an appeal from the International Olympic Committee, the World Anti-Doping Agency and the International Skating Union to reimpose her provisional suspension.
However the decision does not mean that Valieva, who was revealed last week to have tested positive for trimetazidine on Christmas Day, has escaped a doping ban.
The fate of the team figure skating gold medal, won last Monday by a Russian Olympic Committee team led by Valieva, is also unlikely to be known for several weeks.
Explaining its decision, which came after a hearing conducted by video conference on Sunday night, Cas wrote: “On the basis of the very limited facts of this case, and after consideration of the relevant legal issues, it has been determined that no provisional suspension should be imposed on the athlete due to exceptional circumstances.”
“The panel considered fundamental principles of fairness, proportionality, irreparable harm and the relative balance of interests as between the applicants and the athletes, who did not test positive during the Olympic Games in Beijing and is still subject to a disciplinary procedure,” it added.
The Cas decision continues an extraordinary week for Valieva, which began when she led the Russian Olympic Committee to figure skating team gold last Monday after performing a quad for the first time in the history of the Games.
A day later the World Anti-Doping Agency-approved Stockholm laboratory reported that a urine sample taken from her on Christmas Day was found to contain trimetazidine, which led to the Russian Anti-Doping Agency provisionally suspending her.

A day later that suspension was reversed and challenged by the IOC, Wada and the ISU, which took a case to Cas.

Meanwhile Valieva has had the pressure of the world’s gaze on her as she continues to train in Beijing. She is now to skate in the short programme on Tuesday and the free programme on Thursday.
However Sarah Hirshland, the president of the US Olympic and Paralympic Committee said she was “disappointed” by the decision.
Sign up for our Beijing 2022 briefing with all the news, views and previews for the Games.
“It is the collective responsibility of the entire Olympic community to protect the integrity of sport and to hold our athletes, coaches and all involved to the highest of standards,” she added. “Athletes have the right to know they are competing on a level playing field. Unfortunately, today that right is being denied.
“This appears to be another chapter in the systemic and pervasive disregard for clean sport by Russia,” she added. “We know this case is not yet closed, and we call on everyone in the Olympic Movement to continue to fight for clean sport on behalf of athletes around the world.”

tinylog简介

tinylog,与其他各种tiny开头的东西一样,是一个轻量级的开源日志解决方案。它本身只包含两个JAR文件(一个用于API,另一个用于实现),没有任何外部依赖关系。两个JAR文件的总大小只有178KB。
虽然是一个轻量级级别方案,但我们常用的基本日志管理功能都非常完备,它拥有与其他热门日志框架类似的API设计、多种可配置的日志输出选项、性能方面也是非常的出彩(这是官方给出的Benchmark)。
今天我们就来学习一下,如何在Spring Boot中使用tinylog记录日志。

整合tinylog

通过之前Spring Boot 2.x基础教程:使用log4j2记录日志 一文的学习,回忆一下,整合其他日志框架,是不是可以总结为这样几步:
  1. 排除Spring Boot默认日志框架依赖
  2. 引入要使用的日志框架依赖
  3. 加入新日志框架的配置文件
好了,我们就按这个步骤来实战一下:

第一步:排除Spring Boot默认日志框架依赖

<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-web</artifactId>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-starter-logging</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
</dependencies>

第二步:引入tinylog的依赖

<properties>
<tinylog.version>2.4.1</tinylog.version>
</properties>

<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.tinylog</groupId>
<artifactId>tinylog-api</artifactId>
<version>${tinylog.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.tinylog</groupId>
<artifactId>tinylog-impl</artifactId>
<version>${tinylog.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.tinylog</groupId>
<artifactId>slf4j-tinylog</artifactId>
<version>${tinylog.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.tinylog</groupId>
<artifactId>jcl-tinylog</artifactId>
<version>${tinylog.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.tinylog</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j1.2-api</artifactId>
<version>${tinylog.version}</version>
</dependency>

</dependencies>
测试与验证
到这里,基本整合已经完成了。我们不着急去对tinylog做详细配置,先验证下到这里是否都已经正确。跟之前的日志整合例子一样,写个主类打印下各个级别的日志。
@Slf4j
@SpringBootApplication
public class Chapter83Application {

public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(Chapter83Application.class, args);

log.error("Hello World");
log.warn("Hello World");
log.info("Hello World");
log.debug("Hello World");
log.trace("Hello World");
}

}
这里用了lombok的@Slf4j,如果还不了解的建议读一下这篇:Lombok:让JAVA代码更优雅

运行一下,从控制台可以看到输出内容如下:

通过debug,我们可以看到此时的log已经是TinylogLogger

第三步:加入tinylog的配置文件

通过上一步,我们虽然已经完成了整合,但是上面的格式,是你想要的吗?加入配置调整一下!
在resources目录下创建文件:tinylog.properties
加入下面的配置:
writer=console
writer.format={date: HH:mm:ss.SSS} {level}: {message}
重新运行测试,控制台输出是不是好看一些了

更多配置,比如:文件输出、级别控制等这里就不详细说了,大家可以查看官方文档,基本上与其他框架都是类似的,很容易配置。

今早,DD注意到JetBrains在官方博客发文宣布要将log4j从IntelliJ平台移除了,该变化将在2022.1版本发布。
从博文看,本次移除log4j的漏洞,并非担心log4j2的漏洞问题,因为基于IntelliJ平台的IDE使用的并非log4j2,而是log4j 1.2的补丁版本(移除了所有网络相关的代码)。这里DD也顺便看了一下,之前log4j核弹漏洞大爆发时候的消息,根据官方给出的公告看,其旗下大量开发工具类产品并不受影响。

此次决定将log4j移除,核心还是因为IntelliJ平台的IDE其实对于日志的需求非常低(仅用来信息到文件和控制台),而log4j太过于复杂(会直接或间接引入太多第三方内容)。为了避免未来出现其他潜在的问题,所以将移除对log4j的依赖。

影响范围

从开发工具中移除log4j其实对大部分开发者影响不大,但如果你是插件开发者,那么会受一些影响。所以,官方给出了一些建议:
  • 如果您在自己的插件代码中使用log4j:切换到使用标准平台日志记录APIcom.intellij.openapi.Diagnotic.Logger
  • 如果您在自己的代码中使用log4j,该代码在插件和其他上下文中都可以使用:请切换到使用SLF4J API。IntelliJ平台通过java.util.log附带了SLF4J API的实现,因此该平台完全支持SLF4J日志记录。
  • 如果在代码的依赖项中使用log4j:请求依赖项维护者切换到SLF4J。如果这是不可能的,多亏了log4j到SLF4J桥,从依赖项进行的日志记录很可能会继续工作。
  • 如果您使用log4jAPI定制使用SLF4J的依赖项的日志记录:切换到使用java.util.logingAPI来配置处理程序和日志级别。
  • 如果您在测试中使用log4jXML文件来配置日志记录:请切换到使用.properties文件的配置,如LogManager文档中所述。使用IntelliJ测试框架运行测试时,可以使用idea.log.config.properties文件系统属性传递日志属性文件的路径。
DD觉得对于IntelliJ这样的产品来说,移除log4j还是非常值得我们学习的,正如官方所说的那样,log4j过于复杂,会引入很多其他东西,而这些东西带来的特性对自己有没啥用,确实会造成一些隐患。不提安全问题吧,就依赖管理上,DD以前帮其他开发查问题的时候,经常发现的依赖冲突大多就是引入了一些复杂的高级依赖形成的。
最后,考考大家,JetBrains这一决定,符合面向对象设计六大原则中的哪一个原则?留言说出你的答案!

自己怎么做seoSEO 的本质是为了符合搜索引擎友好程度的排名优化,而其中 SEO 最基础的就是工作就是外链和内容。网站优化排名不仅仅是引流,更重要的是转化,和如何留住用户。今天,我们来给大家介绍一下怎么自己做seo,一起来看看吧。
自己怎么做seo
关键词挖掘与布局:
关键词是网站 SEO 优化的中心,更是一个网站产品或服务的核心,关键词将承载着搜索引擎方面的流量源,所以你不要以为关键词就只是给网站首页精心的挖掘筛选几个主关键词就够了,然后再把标题和描述雕琢一下,那你真的小看 SEO 了,网站首页确实可以聚焦主关键词的排名和优化,但是对于一个网站而言,对于用户而已更重要的是内容页,从而网站的流量入口页面也会分散到各个子栏目和内页中,这也就是我们常说的长尾关键词挖掘分析。
自己怎么做seo
网站页面优化:
对于网站页面的优化,就包括了网站底层代码,例如网页标签的规范、URL 的合理运用、图片优化、页面结构、TKD 布局、关键词内链或锚点,还有网站整体栏目结构,页面的整体美观和阅读体验,流量引导和转换的功能等需求。
自己怎么做seo
检查网站数据(收录、关键词排名、流量等):
seo职业这个工作每天开始需要检查网站的各种数据,包括昨天的收录条数、关键词排名、点击数据、网站快照等,并且做好网站的数据统计,便于为以后的seo工作计划提供数据支持。
自己怎么做seo
更新网站内容:
很多基础seoer并没有配备编辑,因此需要自己更新内容。更新内容需要根据挖掘出来的行业需求关键词作为依据,在内容质量上需要满足高质量、原创,确保满足搜索引擎的排名需求,以及用户的搜索需求,至于数量每个公司的规定不一样,需要根据情况决定。
自己怎么做seo
网站统计分析:
通过搜索引擎的站长平台和网站统计代码对网站过去一天的数据有个简单的分析和了解,观察流量来源和搜索的关键词,用户的访问时间和浏览页面,流量转化等情况,有助于了解访客需求和网站目前情况。
自己怎么做seo
软文推广:
根据每月热点,如吉日、节日、热点新闻编辑重点文章,引流,并增强品牌影响力要求:文章质量高,标题,内容足够吸引访客,每月不少于4篇目的:提升流量,增加名牌影响力,从而增加业务量。

如何做seoSEO 的本质是为了符合搜索引擎友好程度的排名优化,而其中 SEO 最基础的就是工作就是外链和内容。曾经的 SEO 可能为了搜索引擎而优化,如今更多的是需要为了用户体验和需求去提升优化,网站优化排名不仅仅是引流,更重要的是转化,和如何留住用户。
如何做seo
定期更新网站文章。
企业必须每天都在网站上面更新内容,每天更新的内容最好是原创或者是伪原创,文章要带有核心关键词或长尾关键词,这样能够快速地被搜索引擎及收录,容易吸引搜索蜘蛛关顾我们的网站,这样你的相关关键词也会得到很好的排名效果。
如何做seo
筛选网站关键词。
需要对网站的核心关键词进行海量的筛选、筛选的工具可以用金花站长工具、追词工具、百度指数、百度下拉框、爱站工具等等。另外通过这些工具挖掘大量到网站的长尾关键词,也可以利用网站标签代码的优化关键词,要注意的是避免堆砌网站关键词,过度的优化导致搜索引擎认为网站作弊,后果不堪想像。
如何做seo
网站整体内容的合理布局。
任何搜索引擎都会非常注重网站的内容,东拼西凑的网站内容是无法突显网站重点的,被抓取的机率也会很小,因此,企业一定要在整体内容的布局上下功夫。
如何做seo
交换高质量的友情链接。
对于SEO优化来说,高质量的友情链接可以提高网站PR值以及网站的更新率,这些对于关键词排名都是非常关键的因素。与一些收录比较好,快照更新快的网站交换链接是提高网站关键词排名的有效手段。更换链接的渠道,可以加一些和自己行业相关的QQ群,论坛、百度贴吧、等等。都是非常不错的渠道。
如何做seo
选择稳定的网站主机或空间。
网站主机或空间要稳定可靠 避免使用被惩罚过的主机空间,以免发生不收录,或者说突然空间长时间停机调整,引起引擎删除无结果网页,网站起初尽快备案,以免由因未备案引擎的空间停止使用。

seo推广哪家好伴随着经济的发展,网络推广渐渐成了许多企业无比看重的一种销售方式。不少中小企业在艰难的发展过程中,出自自身的条件限制,往往会找一些推广外包公司来负责推广。今天,我们总结了几个不错的推广公司,分享给大家:1.百度竞价;2.百度网盟;3.贴吧;5.互动百科;6.今日头条。
seo推广哪家好

一、付费的网络推广渠道

1、百度竞价,直接,有效,但免不了花冤枉钱
2、百度网盟,性价比高,效果也还可以,相对竞价来说经济实惠。
3、腾讯社交广告,微信公众号后台可以做朋友圈广告和文章底部广告。

二、免费的网络推广渠道

1、网络社区类
网络社区是指包括BBS/论坛、贴吧、公告栏、群组讨论、在线聊天、交友、个人空间、无线增值服务等形式在内的网上交流空间,同一主题的网络社区集中了具有共同兴趣的访问者。网络社区包括三个关键要素:社区平台,社区内容和社区成员,这也是水军网整合服务中的一部分。
2、百科推广
百科对内容要求高,强调原创和真实性,互联网用户在百科都能找到自己想要的全面、准确、客观的定义性信息。
a、百度百科
百度是一般人用的较多的搜索引擎,所以百度百科是一定要建立的,毕竟搜索相关品牌名称时会呈现在很明显的位置。不过现在一般很难过审,用百科等级相对高的账号建立会相对容易很多。
b、互动百科
互动百科的好处是什么搜索引擎都能展现,而且展现位置还不错,建议条件允许的话可以试着做一下。
c、搜狗百科
搜狗百科过审会相对容易一些,不过也是要提供相应依据的,建议可以先尝试搜狗百科。
d、360百科
360百科要求百科等级4级及以上才可以创建,建议可以先养号或者直接购买这种百科创建账号。

三、挑选标准

网站优化公司很多,没有具体的衡量标准的。但是可以从几方面去选择:
1、有做了很多精明案例的
2、案例都是可以验证方法的
3、只做网站优化的,没有做其他的
4、做的比较久的。

怎么找潜在客户寻找潜在客户的方法有:1.在一些销售群、采购群里,和群友交换客户资源;2.善于利用专业平台,找企业联系人用脉脉,找潜在客户找销售线索用商理事,商理事上面也有企业关键人的联系方式;3.向公司老业务员请教,或者查查公司合同。
怎么找潜在客户

1. 逐户寻访法

该法又称为普访法、贸然访问法,就是指销售人员在特定的区域或行业内,用上门访问的形式,对估计可能成为客户的单位、组织、家庭乃至个人逐一地进行访问并确定销售对象的方法。逐户寻访法遵循“平均法则”原理,即认为在被寻访的所有对象中,必定有销售人员所要的客户,而且分布均匀,其客户的数量与访问对象的数量成正比。
逐户寻访法是一个古老但比较可靠的方法,它可以使销售人员在寻访客户的同时,了解客户、了解市场、了解社会。该法主要适合于日用消费品或保险等服务的销售;该法的缺点就是费时、费力,带有较大的盲目性;更为严峻的是,随着经济的发展,人们对住宅、隐私越来越重视,这种逐户寻访法的实施面临着越来越大的难度。

2. 客户引荐法

该法又称为连锁介绍法、无限连锁法,就是指销售人员由现有客户介绍他认为有可能购买产品的潜在客户的方法。现有客户的介绍方法主要有口头介绍、写信介绍、电话介绍、名片介绍等。实践证明,客户引荐法是一种比较有效的寻找潜在客户的方法,它不仅可以大大地避免寻找工作的盲目性,而且有助于销售人员赢得新客户的信任。要应用客户引荐法,首先销售人员应该取信于现有客户;其次对现有客户介绍的客户,销售人员应该对其进行详细的评估和必要的营销准备,销售人员要尽可能地从现有客户处了解新客户的情况;最后,在销售人员访问过新客户后,应及时向现有客户介绍与汇报情况,这一方面是对现有客户的介绍表示感谢,另一方面也可以继续争取现有客户的合作与支持。客户引荐法适合于特定用途的产品,比如专业性强的产品或服务性要求较高的产品等。

3. 光辉效应法

该法又称为中心辐射法、名人效应法或影响中心法等,属于介绍法的一种应用特例。它是指销售人员在某一特定的区域内,首先寻找并争取有较大影响力的中心人物为客户,然后利用中心人物的影响与协助把该区域内可能的潜在客户发展为潜在客户的方法。
该法的得名来自于心理学上的“光辉效应”法则。心理学原理认为,人们对于在自己心目中享有一定威望的人物是信服并愿意追随的。因此,一些中心人物的购买与消费行为,就可能在他的崇拜者心目中形成示范作用与先导效应,从而引发崇拜者的购买行为与消费行为。光辉效应法适合于一些具有一定品牌形象、具有一定品位的产品或服务的销售,比如高档服饰、化妆品、健身等。

4. 代理人法

代理人法,就是通过代理人寻找潜在客户的办法。在国内,大多由销售人员所在公司出面,采取聘请信息员与兼职销售人员的形式进行实施,其佣金由公司确定并支付,实际上这种方法是以一定的经济利益换取代理人的关系资源。该法的依据是经济学上的“最小、最大化”原则与市场相关性原理。代理人法的不足与局限性在于合适的代理人难以寻找,更为严重的是,如果销售人员与代理人合作不好,沟通不畅或者代理人同时为多家公司担任代理,则可能泄露公司商业秘密,这样可能使公司与销售人员陷于不公平的市场竞争中。

5. 平台获取法

目前有部分平台专门为营销团队和营销个人提供有效的销售线索,有一些做得比较好的平台除了获取销售线索,还有帮你预测潜在客户的分析能力,国外EverString,国内有商理事等平台。平台获取法具有低成本高效获取销售线索、快速收集潜在客户资源等优点。

6. 电话营销法

所谓电话营销法,就是指利用电信技术和受过培训的人员,针对可能的潜在客户群进行有计划的、可衡量的市场营销沟通。运用电话寻找潜在客户法可以在短时间内接触到分布在广阔地区内的大量潜在客户。通过类似EverString、商理事等平台获取的高质量销售线索,可以大大提高电话营销法的成功率。

7. 滚雪球法

所谓滚雪球法,就是指在每次访问客户之后,销售人员都向客户询问其他可能对该产品或服务感兴趣的人的名单,这样就像滚雪球一样,在短期内很快就可以开发出数量可观的潜在客户。滚雪球法,尤其适合于服务性产品,比如保险和证券等。

8. 资料查阅法

该法又称间接市场调查法,即销售人员通过各种现有资料来寻找潜在客户的方法。不过,使用该法需要注意以下问题:一是对资料的来源与资料的提供者进行分析,以确认资料与信息的可靠性;二是注意资料可能因为时间关系而出现的错漏等问题。

9. 市场咨询法

所谓市场咨询法,就是指销售人员利用社会上各种专门的市场信息咨询机构或政府有关部门所提供的信息来寻找潜在客户的方法。使用该法的前提是存在发达的信息咨询行业,目前中国市场的信息咨询业正处于发展阶段。
使用该法的优点是比较节省时间,所获得的信息比较客观、准确;缺点是费用较高。

一、敏捷开发流程的8个步骤包括:

敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么1、目标制定,目标对齐:通过市场调研、业务思路、风险评估制定公司规划和目标,根据这一目标产生所有部门的目标并实现对齐;
2、产品规划:产品研发部门根据目标制定产品关键路线图,这个路线图中分布着不同的产品特性和其完成时间;
3、组织产品待办列表:产品规划产生的需求、客户需求、市场人员收集到的缺陷等将组成产品待办列表;
4、需求梳理:然后产品负责人(Product Ower)对这个列表进行梳理,并在需求梳理会(Backlog Grooming Meeting)讲解具体每一个需求,团队成员根据需求的复杂程度评估每个任务的工作量,输出本次迭代的待办事项列表,完成优先级排序等工作;
5、迭代规划:通过Sprint计划会,明确要执行的工作、冲刺目标等,
6、迭代开发:期间会进行每日站会、性能测试、CodeReview、Demo、测试等工作;7、Sprint评审:由每个任务的负责人演示其完整的工作,由PO确定Sprint目标是否完成,版本什么时候对外发布,新增bug的紧急程度等等。
8、开回顾会议:回顾会议由Scrum团队检视自身在过去的Sprint的表现,包括人 、关系、过程、工具等,思考在下一个Sprint中怎么样可以表现得更好,更高效,怎么样可以和团队合作地更愉快。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
以上流程是从目标阶段开始,到一个迭代结束,形成了一个相对完整的闭环。但仅从这个流程我们也很难学习到敏捷管理过程具体细节。
所以,我们下面将从具体的敏捷实践过程对以上流程展开介绍:
延伸阅读:

二、敏捷开发是如何开发产品的

在讲道理之前,我先讲个故事。
最近某公司负责人一直在思考这件事,“冬季如何让更多的人参加户外运动”。然后在某个下雪天,他惊讶的发现路上竟然一个雪人都看不到,这时他灵机一动,“如果现场有一些造型奇特的雪人,会不会让更多人参与户外运动呢”。
于是他回到公司跟核心团队交换了想法,随后经过初步的市场调研和反复的讨论,负责人决定在这一方向上投入一些研发力量进行市场验证。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
经过产品研发部门的细化,雪人的实现路径慢慢的清晰起来,于是负责人决定投入三个敏捷团队来“堆”这个雪人,那为了保障跨团队的协作效率,相关团队有这么几个重要的工作契约:
  1. 全团队只有一个产品总决策人,每个敏捷团队驻扎一名产品负责人。
  2. 每两周全团队要同步一次雪人的研发状态和下一步的研发目标(遇紧急问题需及时沟通)。
  3. 三个敏捷团队有各自的“待办列表”,但总体“需求”来源于大目标。
  4. 各敏捷团队要有持续交付能力,需定期集成一次,每两周要有一个全局版本。
从全团队的计划会议上,所有人明确了第一个开发周期的目标:一个戴帽子的雪人(MVP版本)。
那么第一个开发周期的目标确定后,各敏捷团队内部召开了内部计划会议。
团队一采用的是Scrum,他们第一个开发周期的目标是“实现一顶能戴的帽子”;
团队二采用的是看板,他们第一个开发周期的目标是“实现一个个圆圆的头”;
团队三采用的也是Scrum,他们第一个开发周期的目标是“实现一个结识的身体”。
他们约定了各自的对接时间和关键协议,然后在随后的两周时间里,每个团队开始了各自的研发任务。当然除了既定的业务目标,每个团队也把自己第一版的CI/CD搭建了出来(非功能性需求)。
两周后,第一版雪人在预发布环境中亮相,因为内部已经经历了验收和跨部门的联调,所以这次的预发布过程中没有遇到什么大问题。
两天后,雪人被投放在指定的地点,根据数据埋点显示,当天现场有很多人围观,引起了不小的轰动,负责运营的团队在现场也收集了很多反馈。
后来负责人召集核心团队对第一版雪人的发布进行复盘,同时对发布后的数据进行了分析,最终负责人决定在这个方向上继续投入,随即负责人召集产品研发部门规划了下一阶段的工作。
第二个开发周期的目标确定后,各敏捷团队的”待办事项列表“都更新了。这三个敏捷团队根据最新的”待办事项列表“对这个周期的工作进行了规划,然后开始了新一轮的开发,接着第二版雪人如期投放,吸引了更多的人到户外参加现场活动。
之后是第三次迭代、第四次迭代……随着时间的推移,各个敏捷团队的交付能力越来越强。
为了最大化的发挥敏捷团队的创造力,负责人做了如下要求:
  1. 每个新特性必须有独立的测试。
  2. 每个生产环境的变更必须通过严格的测试测试(在CD中通过单元测试、集成测试、性能测试等)。
  3. 在不影响其他”雪人部位“、不影响大版本规划的前提下,各个”雪人部位“可以按需部署,用于快速响应游客的诉求、修复雪人的缺陷。
后来雪人在不断的产品迭代中走向正轨……那这种方式就是典型的互联网公司的「敏捷开发」流程。
我总结这个流程就是:
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
在一个健康的互联网公司中,一个明智的决策通常要经过充分的调研和评估,然后才能成为各个部门的目标。当然定目标绝不是喊口号,它包含两部分的内容:
1. 目标是什么
2. 如何检验我们正在向目标走
而在这个过程中,各个关键角色的目标要进行对齐,所有人的步调要保持一致,由下向上及时反馈目标进展。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Goals进行各个关键角色的目标对齐)
那对于产品研发部门来说,产品的研发进度无疑是非常重要的。如果我们对一个产品目标进行分解,会形成一个产品的关键路线图(或者称为用户故事地图),在这个路线图中分布着不同的产品特性和其完成时间。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Plan规划路线图)
接着这些”需求“被分级分类后放在各个开发团队的”产品待办列表“中。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Plan规划程序增量)
进入到一个Scrum团队中,他们在自己的”产品待办列表“中就可以看到按优先级排序的各类需求。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Agile管理敏捷团队的开发工作)
Scrum团队会根据综合因素(通常包含:优先级、工作量、依赖关系、非功能性需求的比例等等)安排每个开发周期的工作,他们在每个开发周期结束时都会产出一个可以交付的程序增量。随后我们将所有的Scrum团队完成的服务进行集成,形成一个全局版本,部署到生产环境中。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Plan管理各Scrum团队的版本)
最后我们再对不同的功能点进行追踪,对各类活动数据进行分析,为后续的决策提供数据支持,这便形成了一个完整的闭环。这里我之所以把”敏捷开发流程“拉的这么长,是因为今天的敏捷已经不是”团队级别“的概念了。20年前敏捷开发试图解决业务团队与开发团队之间的矛盾,而今天敏捷开发是一种思维方式,这种思维方式将为整个组织进行赋能。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
那对于今天雪人的故事而言,整个组织就是在用敏捷的方式响应新的”需求“。如果只有研发部门采用敏捷开发,那今天故事的结局会不一样;如果只有一个研发团队采用敏捷开发,那故事的结局会更不一样。当然今天雪人的故事中有很多夸张的因素在,很多事情并不是一蹴而就的,基础设施也需要时间来演进。
说到这,我们再回到团队级别的敏捷开发中,毕竟能落地的才是真的。
首先,我认为敏捷开发绝不是一种或几种固定的开发框架,虽然我们在实施敏捷开发时确实也离不开这些框架,但敏捷最大的价值是它传达出来的价值观。其次,我认为使用Scrum和看板这样成熟的框架是十分必要的,标准化的研发流程容易产生规划化效果,说人话就是容易复制。
那么典型的敏捷团队是什么样?内部又有什么样的流程的?

三、Scrum 敏捷团队在一个(Sprint)冲刺中具体是怎么工作的?

我首推Scrum,放图:
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(这是一个由8人组成,开发周期为2周的Scrum团队,主要负责产品研发)
这个团队在开始一个新的Sprint之前,PO会及时更新左侧的产品待办列表,他通常按照优先级进行排序,并对列表里的工作项复杂度有个大概的认知。
在第一周周一的早上10点,Scrum Master组织所有人参加计划会议:首先由PO说明这个Sprint的目标,再对待办列表进行讲解。然后由开发团队对用户故事的规模进行预估,在团队容量允许的情况下,将用户故事放入这个Sprint的工作列表中。
之后由开发团队对Sprint的工作列表进行承诺。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Agile开计划会议)
散会后各自回去主动领任务开始干活,当开发工程师开始一项工作时,他会从主分支checkout出一个特性分支,然后基于这个分支提交新代码,当开发完成时,他会向主分支提交Pull Request(或Merge Request),这会自动触发CI流水线(执行静态检查、单元测试等),CI流水线通过后,需要另一位开发工程师手动Code Review,只有Code Review通过后代码才会合入主分支,这会自动触发CD流水线(执行集成测试、部署测试环境等)。
部署完成后关掉相关的开发任务,领取下一个开发任务。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Agile关联开发数据)
每天早上10点,Scrum Master组织所有人开站立会议,每人花2分钟同步一下工作进展。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Agile开站立会议)
第二周周五下午4点左右,Scrum Master组织所有人开评审会议,由每个任务的负责人演示其完整的工作,由PO确定Sprint目标是否完成,版本什么时候对外发布,新增bug的紧急程度等等。
第二周周五下午5点左右,Scrum Master组织所有人开回顾会议,每个人说一下团队做的好的和不好的地方,有哪些改进方案等。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Agile开回顾会议)
第二周周五晚些时候,最新的版本部署到预发布环境中。第三周(新Sprint的第一周)周二的晚上,部署最新的版本到生产环境中。
对于自管理能力强,或者周期性不强的团队选择看板,放图:
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(这是一个由5人组成,开发周期为1周的看板团队,主要负责基础服务维护)
这个团队非常注意”流动的感觉“,为了保证让工作流动起来,他们定义了5个栏:需求、设计、开发、测试和部署,其中设计、开发和测试都有明确的“完成的定义”和在制品的限制。
有任何需求给到这个团队的时候,直接在需求列创建一个工作项即可。当设计同学准备处理下一项任务时,他只需从上一栏中拉过来即可,但是当他想将任务拖到已完成时,这项工作必须满足设计栏的“完成的定义”。
就是说所有的方案必须通过评审,并且将影响方案告知相关方。当他不把这个任务拖到已完成的时候,那么下游的开发同学不会继续处理这个任务,这项任务将一直卡在”设计正在做“这一栏里。
当开发同学准备处理下一项任务时,他只需从上一栏的已完成中拉过来即可,当他要完成一项任务时,要提交相应的代码,覆盖单元测试并通过CI,然后再通过CD部署到Test环境中。
当测试同学准备处理下一件工作时,他只需从上一栏的已完成中拉过来即可,为这个任务写相关的自动化测试并执行通过,然后再把任务拖到已完成中。最后由部署同学拖动任务到部署栏中,部署这个最新的版本。他们每天早上都会看着看板开早会,说一下当前的工作进展。
在这个过程中,如果有一项工作长期被卡在某一栏中,将很容易被发现,如果有大量的工作被卡在某一栏时,这时将暴露出这个团队最大的瓶颈问题。
这样的方式让他们的工作状态一目了然。
敏捷开发流程的8个步骤是什么
(使用PingCode Agile的看板管理一个基础框架的研发流程)
类似这样的Scrum和看板团队组成了一个大型的研发部门,这个部门有自己的季度目标,每个月至少会开会一次部门同步会,他们会同步所有项目的工作进展和下一步的工作计划,就像雪人的故事一样……

六西格玛的定义是什么六西格玛是一种改善企业质量流程管理的技术,以“零缺陷”的完美商业追求,带动质量成本的大幅度降低,最终实现财务成效的提升与企业竞争力的突破。
六西格玛的定义是什么

一、 概述

六西格玛(Six Sigma,6 Sigma)是一种管理策略,它是由当时在摩托罗拉任职的工程师比尔▪史密斯(Bill Smith)于1986年提出的。这种策略主要强调制定极高的目标、收集数据以及分析结果,通过这些来减少产品和服务的缺陷。六西格玛背后的原理就是如果你检测到你的项目中有多少缺陷,你就可以找出如何系统地减少缺陷,使你的项目尽量完美的方法。一个企业要想达到六西格玛标准,那么它的出错率不能超过百万分之3.4。
六西格玛包括两个过程:六西格玛DMAIC和六西格玛DMADV,它们是整个过程中两个主要的步骤。六西格玛DMAIC是对当前低于六西格玛规格的项目进行定义、度量、分析、改善以及控制的过程。六西格玛 DMADV则是对试图达到六西格玛(6 Sigma)质量的新产品或项目进行定义、度量、分析、设计和验证的过程。所有的六西格玛项目是由六西格玛绿带或六西格玛黑带执行的,然后由摩托罗拉创建的六西格玛黑带大师监督。

二、 三层含义

一般来讲,包含以下三层含义:
(1)是一种质量尺度和追求的目标,定义方向和界限。
(2)是一套科学的工具和管理方法,运用DMAIC(改善)或DFSS(设计)的过程进行流程的设计和改善。
(3)是一种经营管理策略。6 Sigma管理是在提高顾客满意程度的同时降低经营成本和周期的过程革新方法,它是通过提高组织核心过程的运行质量,进而提升企业赢利能力的管理方式,也是在新经济环境下企业获得竞争力和持续发展能力的经营策略。

三、 管理好处

1. 提升企业管理的能力
6σ管理以数据和事实为驱动器。过去,企业对管理的理解和对管理理论的认识更多停留在口头上和书面上,而6σ把这一切都转化为实际有效的行动。6σ管理法成为追求完美无瑕的管理方式的同义语。
2.节约企业运营成本
对于企业而言,所有的不良品要么被废弃,要么需要重新返工,要么在客户现场需要维修、调换,这些都需要花费企业成本。美国的统计资料表明,一个执行3σ管理标准的公司直接与质量问题有关的成本占其销售收入的10%~15%。
3.增加顾客价值
实施6σ管理可以使企业从了解并满足顾客需求到实现最大利润之间的各个环节实现良性循环:公司首先了解、掌握顾客的需求,然后通过采用6σ管理原则减少随意性和降低差错率,从而提高顾客满意程度。

六西格玛绿带是什么意思六西格玛是质量管理的一种方法,按级别来分,有黄带、绿带、黑带和主黑带,是按所掌握的六西格玛知识和实践的层次来分的,绿带说明对六西格玛质量管理的知识有了较深的理解,并能运用一些简单的工具到实际的工作中去,因此,达到了绿带资质,是有助于实际工作和求职的。
六西格玛绿带是什么意思

一、六西格玛概述

六西格玛的管理方法重点是将所有的工作作为一种流程,采用量化的方法分析流程中影响质量的因素,找出最关键的因素加以改进的项目,从而达到更高的客户满意度。这些项目形成于各个层次,或是基于分工,或是由于临时需要解决一个问题。
成千个这样的项目运用六西格玛的基本工具在公司各个层面优化工作程序。如今,六西格玛管理已经从运营和服务系统,发展到企业营销,产品设计和技术开发等各个领域,以成功的案例带动企业的文化变革,“零缺陷”高品质的精神渗透到企业的每一个环节中。

二、六西格玛适合的企业

它适用于任何水平、任何企业,它功能强,可以测量到百万分之一的水平。因为它是要影响到整个公司,实施六西格玛需要上层领导的大力协助。中国的企业在中国加入WTO后,必将面临日益激烈的来自全球的竞争,同时信息化的飞速发展将从根本上改变经济的组织结构和消费行为,如何在这种新的经济环境中生存、成长、壮大是对每一个企业领导人的挑战。六西格玛,由于其严谨的方法和实施步骤、以面向最终用户来建立营运体系的管理思想,对于中国企业建立卓越的管理体系、获取并保持在国际市场上的竞争优势提供一个非常有效的管理思想和实践。
一些中小型企业也开始运用六西格玛工具,来提高效率和创新开发能力,为扩大企业规模和提高国际竞争力奠定坚实的基础。我们经常调查我们的客户,发现他们对我们的公司很满意,六西格玛怎么能帮助我们呢?
如果你们的客户只是满意,并没有填上最好的一栏,请注意,他们可能满意,但是客户非常易变,如果他们发现市场上还有(可能)更好的选择,他们很可能会从你公司跳到另一公司。以往经验表明,那些在调查中填写"好"的客户比那些填"极好"的客户有六倍更倾向于更换公司。六西格玛可以帮你提高他们对你公司的认可,同时在既定客户满意度基础上,企业可以大幅度降低为实现该目标而支付的成本,从而在激烈的竞争环境中显著提升企业的经营利润。

三、 管理好处

1. 提升企业管理的能力
6σ管理以数据和事实为驱动器。过去,企业对管理的理解和对管理理论的认识更多停留在口头上和书面上,而6σ把这一切都转化为实际有效的行动。6σ管理法成为追求完美无瑕的管理方式的同义语。
2.节约企业运营成本
对于企业而言,所有的不良品要么被废弃,要么需要重新返工,要么在客户现场需要维修、调换,这些都需要花费企业成本。美国的统计资料表明,一个执行3σ管理标准的公司直接与质量问题有关的成本占其销售收入的10%~15%。

6个西格玛是什么意思6个西格玛的意思是一种改善企业质量流程管理的技术,以“零缺陷”的完美商业追求,带动质量大幅提高、成本大幅度降低,最终实现财务成效的提升与企业竞争力的突破。
6个西格玛是什么意思

一、 由来

六西格玛(Six Sigma)是在九十年代中期开始被GE从一种全面质量管理方法演变成为一个高度有效的企业流程设计、改善和优化的技术,并提供了一系列同等地适用于设计、生产和服务的新产品开发工具。继而与GE的全球化、服务化、电子商务等战略齐头并进,成为全世界上追求管理卓越性的企业最为重要的战略举措。六西格玛逐步发展成为以顾客为主体来确定企业战略目标和产品开发设计的标尺,追求持续进步的一种管理哲学。
20世纪90年代发展起来的6σ(西格玛)管理是在总结了全面质量管理的成功经验,提炼了其中流程管理技巧的精华和最行之有效的方法,成为一种提高企业业绩与竞争力的管理模式。该管理法在摩托罗拉、通用、戴尔、惠普、西门子、索尼、东芝行众多跨国企业的实践证明是卓有成效的。为此,国内一些部门和机构在国内企业大力推6σ管理工作,引导企业开展6σ管理。

二、 概念

六西格码的中心思想是,如果你能“测量”一个过程有多少个缺陷,你便能有系统地分析出,怎样消除它们和尽可能地接近“零缺陷”。
在六西格玛里,“流程”是一个很重要的概念。举一个例子来说明。一个人去银行开账户。从他进银行开始,到结束办理开户叫一个“流程”。而在这个流程里面还套着一个“流程”,即银行职员会协助你填写开户账单,然后她把这个单据拿给主管去审核,这是银行的一个标准的程序。去银行开户的人是一线员工的“顾客”,这是当然的顾客,叫“外在的顾客”,而同时一线员工要把资料给主管审核,所以主管也是一定意义上的“顾客”,这叫“内在的顾客”。工厂与这个案例也很像,即下一道工序是这一道工序的“顾客”。
另一个重要的概念是“规格”。客户去银行办账户,时间是很宝贵的。办账号需要多长时间就是客户的“规格”。客户要求在15分钟内办完,15分钟就是这个客户的规格。而如果银行一线职员要用十七八分钟才能做完,那么,这就叫做“缺陷”。假如职员要在一张单上五个地方打字,有一个地方打错了,这就叫做一个“缺陷”,而整张纸叫一个单元。
“机会”,指的就是缺陷的机会,如果一张单据上有五个地方要打,那么这个单元的缺陷机会为五。

三、 特征

1)是以顾客为关注焦点的管理理念
六西格玛是以顾客为中心,关注顾客的需求。
2)通过提高顾客满意度和降低资源成本促使组织的业绩提升
六西格玛项目瞄准的目标有两个,一是提高顾客满意度。通过提高顾客满意度来占领市场、开拓市场,从而提高组织的效益。二是降低资源成本。通过降低资源成本,尤其是不良质量成本损失COPQ(Cost of Poor Quality),从而增加组织的收入。
3)注重数据和事实,使管理成为一种真正意义上基于数字上的科学
六西格玛管理方法是一种高度重视数据,依据数字、数据进行决策的管理方法,强调“用数据说话”、“依据数据进行决策”,“改进一个过程所需要的所有信息,都包含在数据中”。
4)是一种以项目为驱动力的管理方法
六西格玛管理方法的实施是以项目为基本单元。通过一个个项目的实施来实现。通常项目是以黑带为负责人,牵头组织项目团队通过项目成功完成来实现产品或流程的突破性改进。

西格玛怎么算很多人对于西格玛是如何计算的一头雾水。今天,我们就带大家来拆解一下西格玛的计算方法,大家一起来看看吧。
西格玛怎么算
在正态分布中σ代表标准差,μ代表均值。x=μ即为图像的对称轴
3σ原则为:
数值分布在(μ-σ,μ+σ)中的概率为0.6827
数值分布在(μ-2σ,μ+2σ)中的概率为0.9545
数值分布在(μ-3σ,μ+3σ)中的概率为0.9973
可以认为,Y 的取值几乎全部集中在(μ-3σ,μ+3σ)区间内,超出这个范围的可能性仅占不到0.3%
西格玛怎么算
∑(2i+1)表示和式:(2*2+1)+(2*3+1)+(2*4+1)+......+(2*10+1)=222.
i=2
式子中的2i+1是数列的通项公式Ai,i是项的序数,i=2表示从数列{2i+1}的第二项开始计算,顶上的10是运算到的10项截止。
大写Σ用于数学上的总和符号,比如:∑Pi,其中i=1,2,...,T,即为求P1 + P2 + ... + PT的和。小写σ用于统计学上的标准差。西里尔字母的С及拉丁字母的S都是由Sigma演变而成。
也指求和,这种写法表示的就是∑j=1+2+3+…+n。
西格玛怎么算
用Excel计算
选中需要放置和值的单元格,然后点击自动求和快捷工具,就会生成一个=SUM的求和公式,此时求和区域是智能选择的,但不一定是想要的;

鸡对猪说:“嗨,我们合伙开个餐厅吧。”
猪说:“好啊,那准备取什么店名呢?”
鸡说:“要不,就叫火腿和鸡蛋吧。”
猪直接拒绝了:“那可不行。我要割肉,你只要下蛋。这样下去,我迟早要完蛋。”

什么是Scrum

Scrum是迭代式增量软件开发过程,通常用于敏捷软件开发。Scrum包括了一系列实践和预定义角色的过程骨架。Scrum中的主要角色包括同项目经理类似的Scrum主管角色负责维护过程和任务,产品负责人代表利益所有者,开发团队包括了所有开发人员。虽然Scrum是为管理软件开发项目而开发的,它同样可以用于运行软件维护团队,或者作为计划管理方法:Scrum of Scrums。

Scrum产生的背景

这个故事实际上反映了软件开发过程中的2种不同角色,即需要完全投入的“猪”和只要部分投入的“鸡”。真实项目过程中,往往会发生这样的现象,产品经理或领导,喜欢临时往项目中新增任务,打乱原先的开发节奏,导致程序员压力倍增,士气低落,项目延期。
而Scrum,就是为了保护“猪”这种角色,兼顾“鸡”的感受,从而确保整个项目正常交付。它是一套敏捷开发流程。

Scrum的角色

就Scrum的职责来讲,分为:
1.Project Owner:即产品经理,大部分时间担任了“鸡”的角色,迫于领导的压力,喜欢往团队中不断增加任务或修改需求。
2.Scrum Master:类似于项目负责人,他需要做的是保护团队,兼顾产品经理的需求,确保项目的按时交付。
3.Team:开发测试设计人员,Scrum Master本身可能也是开发人员。

Scrum的流程

什么是scrum

Scrum用到的工具

1.用户故事。迭代计划会议用到,Product Owner以用户的角度去描述需求。如,作为一个学员,我希望能在做完一份试卷后,系统能针对我的薄弱点提供相应的指导及练习。
2.Product Backlog。迭代计划会议用到,Product Owner事先将所有的用户故事按优先级排好,放到一个列表内,这个列表就是Product Backlog。
3.Sprint Backlog。迭代计划会议用到,整个开发小组通过估点将用户故事按优先级移入到迭代计划内,迭代计划中待完成的用户故事列表即为Sprint Backlog。
4.估点。主要用于评估用户故事的大致工作量。下一篇文章会额外介绍估点。
5.燃尽图。主要用于迭代进度的管控。下一篇文章会额外介绍燃尽图。

Scrum标准流程之Sprint Planning Meeting

迭代计划会议中,整个小组通过估点的方式,按优先级将用户故事从Product Backlog中移入到Sprint Backlog,表示整个小组承诺本迭代要做完的任务。做完的标准是测试通过,除非此任务不可测试。

Scrum标准流程之Daily Stand Up Meeting

迭代计划会后,小组成员按个人喜好领取自己的任务,并在每天的站立会议上讲一下自己昨天做了什么,今天准备作什么,大概什么时候完成,以及遇到了什么问题。当有人提出遇到难题时,Scrum Master需要在会后安排人帮忙解决,而不是在会议上直接解决。每个人大概30秒-1分钟,整个会议一般不超过15分钟。每一个工作日结束后,需要画燃尽图(下一篇文章会额外介绍)。

Scrum标准流程之Review Meeting

一个迭代开发阶段结束后,进入内部演示会议,工作成果给整个小组演示(包括Project Owner)。EduSoho的做法是,bug及小优化不演示,点数较大的功能点做演示。

Scrum标准流程之Restrospective Meeting

内部演示结束后,整个小组(包括Project Owner)召开一个迭代回顾会,回顾本迭代中大家哪些做的好,哪些做的不好,每人各列举3个好的以及不好的,列的时候只讲现象,不分析原因,不找解决方案。然后整个小组投票选出3个不好的,分析原因,寻找解决方案,并指定执行者。
为什么只解决3个不好的?每个小组的精力有限,如果要一个迭代内解决全部问题,不太现实,先优先解决3个最重要的,多次迭代后,会发现整个小组的变化越来越明显。

西格玛是什么意思西格玛是数学中常用的符号的中音音译,是希腊字母∑,英文译音是Sigma, 表示数学中的求和号,主要用于求多项数之和。关于西格玛的具体内容我们将在文章中展开。
西格玛是什么意思

什么是西格玛

西格玛是数学中常用的符号的中音音译,是希腊字母∑,英文译音是Sigma, 表示数学中的求和号,主要用于求多项数之和。

符号介绍

“西格玛”是希腊字母,也有念作“西玛”“希玛”等各种读法,符号是∑,英文译音是Sigma, 表示数学中的求和号,是数学中常用的符号,主要用于求多项数的和,用∑表示 。
∑下面的小字,如i=1表示从i=1开始求和
上面的小字,如n表示求和到n为止
比如下面写i=1,上面写n,后面写xi(i是下角标)
表示从x1+x2+…+xn
例如1+2+3+4+......+100=5050可以写成
比如下面写i=5,上面写n,后面写xi
表示从x5+x6+…+xn
Sigma(大写Σ,小写σ),是第十八个希腊字母。 在希腊语中,如果一个单字的最末一个字母是小写sigma,要把该字母写成Sigma的小写另一种。在现代的希腊数字代表6。
大写Σ用于:
数学上的总和符号
小写σ用于:
化学上的一种共价键,σ键。
力学上的应力
统计学上的标准差
传热学上的黑体辐射常数
西里尔字母的С及拉丁字母的S都是由Sigma演变而成。

在 App 开发过程中,ListView 是 比较很常见的控件,用来处理 列表类的数据展示。当然 Flutter 也是支持的,由于 Flutter 是归属于声明式 UI 编程,其处理起来要更加的简单与便捷。
本文将通过一个极简单的例子来说明一下 如何 实现动态更新数据。 在贴代码之前,先介绍一些概念和内容

数据集

1
2
final _names = ['Andrew', 'Bob', 'Charles'];
int _counter = 0;
新的数据Item 'Someone($_counter)' 会被触发加入到 _names 数组中。

触发器

通常触发加载数据是分页数据加载完成,这里我们使用一个 FloatingActionButton 的点击操作等价模拟。

floatingActionButton: FloatingActionButton(
 onPressed: () {
   setState(() {
     _names.add('Someone($_counter)');
     _counter ++;
   });
 },
 tooltip: 'Add TimeStamp',
 child: const Icon(Icons.add),

展示视图

     itemCount: _names.length,
     itemBuilder: (BuildContext context, int index) {
       return Container(
           width: double.infinity,
           height: 50,
           alignment: Alignment.center,
           child: Text(_names[index]));
     }),
),
上述代码
需要Expanded 包裹 ListView 确保空间展示填充 使用 ListView.builder 方法实现 ListView
总体来说,Flutter 中实现 ListView 数据动态添加和展示,真的很便捷,少去了传统UI 编程中显式的 Adapter 等内容,编码效率提升不少。

这是我两年前写的一篇文章。
最近遇到了一件事,刚好想起来这篇内容,就和读者们一起分享了。
今年有了女儿,现在才9个月,所以本决定在西安过年的,毕竟西安有暖气空调啥的。
但是越是临近过节的日期,就越有点想回老家的感觉,再加上我弟弟每天两次的电话洗脑。
在除夕的早上,我决定回老家了。
在网上包了一个出租车,那个大哥和我们聊了一路,快到我老家的时候,意味深长的说你是怎么走出这里(山里)的。
说的,我媳妇都笑了。
家乡在山区,虽然看起来不咋的,但我确实从来没有感觉,好像走出这里很难的样子。
但对他来讲,确实感觉蛮稀奇的。
就像我在2年前,遇到了的一个陕西老乡,说起我的家乡,就是一个不容易。

01.

前两天参加一个聚会,遇到一个陕西老乡,相互介绍了一下都来自哪里,当我说我来自 XX 市县的时候,这位老乡对我讲,你能从XX市走出来真的不容易,你们那里的人都很穷(国家级贫困县),听了这话,一时间,我竟不知说些什么。
被别人说家乡穷,心里还是蛮不好受的,虽然这些年家乡发展也不错,但仍然还是没有摆脱国家级贫困县的帽子。再想想自己这么一路走过来,确实很不容易、也是碰上了一些机遇,再加上自己的努力,才能走到今天。
曾经有人问我为什么这么拼的时候,一般情况下,我的第一回答就是,我 TM 就是忙不下来,一个爱操心的命;装 B 第二回答是,我喜欢奋斗的感觉,追求自己想要的生活和理想。
真的是这样吗?当一切都安静下来的时候,我就问自己咱能不装 B 吗?说说你为啥这么拼命?一个真实的声音响起来,确实因为穷。。。

02.

小时候家里一直很穷,关键村子里面大家都很穷,所以没有太多的感触,只有到县城去读书的时候,才慢慢看到了巨大的差距,贫穷燃烧的是巨大的自尊心,当然这只有穷过的人才能懂。但那时候穷,还穷得没有那么明显,至少家里还能负担的起,没有外债。
我姐一番周折终于考上了一个一本学校,还是 985、211,由于经济压力和重男轻女的思想,父亲极力的劝说让姐不要上大学,我实在看不下去但又能怪谁。最后我的老母亲,拉着我姐借遍了外婆家的亲戚,才凑够了学费,到现在我姐为这事还在埋怨我爸。
我上大学了也是一样,这个亲戚借个两千,那个亲戚拿上五百,不过因为农村重男轻女的思想,我的学费倒凑得比较容易。所以我是宿舍第一个出去找家教的,大学期间有一半的生活费都是我自己挣的。
大学第一学期放寒假,坐十几个小时的火车去安徽淮南找朋友,朋友说那里寒假可以打零工挣点钱,朋友还说他缺钱,我从生活费里面挤出了两百元人民币打给他。到了那里才发现是一个传销组织,呆了一个月因为实在没钱,传销组织也没办法了,竟然让我回来了,这可能是穷的唯一好处吧。

03.

大学毕业后,大家都在谈论第一份工资怎么花,有的说要给女朋友,有的说要上交父母,有的说要请家里人吃一顿饭,只有我默默无语。我谁都给不了,因为我要留着交房租。
毕业第一份工资是2000元,那时候大学谈的女朋友还没有上班,工作一年下来,没有攒到一分钱,我竟然又借了一万多,但那时候因为年轻信心满满。
所以第一份工作干了9个月我就换了,第二份工作工资终于涨到了 4000 ,我高兴坏了,原来干程序员真的很有钱途。所以我很珍惜我的工作,勤勤恳恳任劳任怨,抓住所有机会去提升自己的技术能力。
但很快我就意识到了 4000 元一个月的工资,真的也不多。第二份工作干了半年之后,家里说想把房子盖了,以前的老房子还是土房,我一直害怕刮大风下大雨出事,父母住在里面我很担心。
母亲是一个心气比较强的人,要盖新房还得盖得好一点,于是家里又借了十几万。我算了一下,按照当时我的工资要还清家里的债务,还需要好多年,太慢了我等不起。于是家里房子盖到一半的时候,我一个人来到了北京。

04.

来北京的时候只带了 3000 元,因为当时就只有 3000 元,其它钱都给家里盖房子用了。租了房子买了日用品,还剩下一千多,我必须要在两周内找到工作,别的不要求,工资必须大于1万。比较幸运,我一周拿下了五个 Offer 。
来北京三年后,基本上还清了所有的欠债。但我仍然很拼命,一方面,我不希望错过任何可以抓住的机会,另一方面,有的时候你是不愿辜负别人对你的信任,所以我一直非常感谢我的两位老领导。
在职场上,如果有人肯拉你一把,你真的要非常感谢他,更何况有时候还拉了很多次。我是这样的一个人,当有人给我机会,愿意信任我时,我宁愿不要加薪,不要升职,我都一定要把这件事情做好,我不能辜负这些信任和期许。
2015年,我在互联网金融公司做技术管理,那时候公司发展得特别快,产品业务都在高速发展中,每天有十几个人来找我,各种各样的事情,每天早上我几乎都是第一个来公司,大多数时候我是最后一个离开公司。
天天晚上十一点打车回家,有一次回家在三环的路上还出了车祸,有两个小伙开车竟然睡着了,追尾了我坐的出租,冲击力直接把我震飞了起来,头把车玻璃碰出了蜘蛛网状。休息了一天,第二天就屁颠屁颠去上班了,心里有事家里呆不住。
就是着两个小伙子追的尾
工作压力最大的时候,我一个人在人大的操场上,闭着眼睛在跑道上走,用这种方式来减压。到现在我还能在云笔记找到当时某一周的工作清单,大家可以感受一下。

05.

北漂六年,每年都比过去一年忙,一直都处在加速、加速、再加速的状态。所以这么多年,我几乎从来都没有歇过。
不过让我欣慰的是,虽然工作生活越来越忙,但我的收入也越来越多,甚至后面一个月挣的钱,比我刚工作两年挣的工资都多。
我比绝大多数人都努力,我比绝大多数人都渴望挣钱,我比绝大多数人都喜欢尝试。所以到了今天,我终于不再觉得我穷了,我只是穷过而已。
也终于厌倦了这种忙碌的生活,现在我想换一种生活方式,未来我会做什么,我也不知道,但我至少不会仅仅为钱而活着。
逆袭虽然是最难的,但过程也是最精彩的,我很享受这个过程。
人生很短、畏畏缩缩总会一事无成,所以如果你够勇敢,那么就坚决的去选择你喜欢的事情吧!
庄子曰:大鹏展翅,扶摇能上九万里!

《你这么拼,家里一定很穷吧》

1.走出大山

接着上次的话题聊,没有看昨天文章的小伙伴,可以点击上面链接了解一下背景。
在出租车大哥问我,是怎么走出这里的时候,我和媳妇都大笑了一下,一时不知道怎么回复。
司机大哥说,农村的孩子走出大山,无非就是2个途径,一个就是当兵,一个就是考上大学。
出租车司机大哥四十多岁,应该是本地人,他说的话有一点道理,但已经很难贴切现在的农村现状了。
如果把他这句话再往前推上 20 年,那么这句话还是蛮正确的。
现在国家对当兵的待遇也很好,退伍之后也会有很多福利政策,但是覆盖的人群只是很小的一部分。
最重要的是很难谈得上改变命运,只能说可以通过这个途径,变相的走向家乡体制内的生活。

2.读书

出租车司机大哥,至少说对了一半,读书确实是改变农村孩子命运的最佳途径,应没有“之一”。
从我那个年代(80)开始,一般稍微正常的家庭,对孩子的教育都非常的重视,可以说都是用尽了全家之力。
比如我和我姐上大学的时候,不但向周边亲戚朋友借了钱,也同时拿了国家的助学贷款、补助金等。
但是客观来讲,就这条途径也慢慢有点走偏。
大学扩招幅度很大,现在基本上只要你想上学,没有上不了的学校,只是部分学校的学费很贵很贵。
上一个大学一年就要3-4万,4年下来就需要10-20万,而且上的还都不是什么好大学。
而且这些学校的生源,很大一部分都是来自农村的孩子,因为毕竟农村的教育资源相对落后,想考一个好大学难度成倍提升。
并且这些学生毕业之后,找工作是越来越难了。
所以对应的情况是,这两年公务员、研究生考试的报考人数屡创新高。

3.仍然是最好的选择

虽然这些事实都是客观存在,但我仍然想说:
目前来讲,读书仍然是改变命运的最公平最好的方式,没有之一,特别特别对于农村的孩子来讲
并不是大学能够学到什么知识,最重要的是让我们开阔了视野,知道人生还有那么多的选择
因为在农村,就根本没有什么选择权。
不会笑曾经说过一句话,你的发展水平,就是你身边最亲近的 5 个人的平均值。
打个最不靠谱的比喻,我就不相信你如果是奥巴马的朋友,会和普通老百姓是一个层级的人。
如果不走出去,你身边的人的选择就已经禁锢了你。
因为大部分农村人的选择范围,基本在种地、打工、送外卖、开各种小生意的店铺等等。
发展的上限就已经被禁锢了。
读书打开了我们的世界,有了选择的权利,知道世界有那么多的可能性,也就容易让我们设定好自己的目标。
人一旦有了目标,就不容易走偏,也容易走到终点

4.改变命运

结合我自己的经历。
改变我命运的人生经历中,有3个最重要的选择,就这 3 个选择让我走到了现在。
在这里我还想补充一下,我们人生中有许许多多的选择,可能都很重要,但改变我们命运的选择其实很少,往往就那么几个。
一旦走错完全就是不同的人生,而且几乎无法弥补。
改变我命运的第一个选择是考上大学
那年我18岁,还没有出过小县城,第一次到了一个不大的城市,甚至都分不清楚东南西北了。
但就是因为上大学,才打开了我的精神世界,知道世界上有这么多的可能性。
第二个改变命运的选择就是,毕业后做了一名程序员
俗话说,男怕入错行女怕嫁错郎,直到现在我才对这句话有很深的认识,如果我去了另外一个行业,可能就没有那么多的机会。
毕竟,个人的选择都是裹挟在历史的大潮中
如果不是中国互联网高速发展的 20 年,哪有我们这些普通人工作、就业,甚至高薪的机会。
而女孩子,选择对象真的太重要了。
选择不同的老公,真的会带给你完全不同的生活,找老公真的是太重要了,所以选择一定要慎重。
第三个改变命运的选择就是北漂
北京是中国互联网的中心,去了这里我才有那么多的选择,赶上了互联网金融的热潮。
从程序员蜕变到一个技术管理者,再遇到2个很好的领导,几乎历任了所有的研发岗位。
因为经历了这么多,我才开始分享自己的故事,又做了自媒体、自由职业,到现在创业有了自己的小公司。
3次选择,改变了我的人生
农村的孩子想要改变命运,就是要抓住人生最关键几个选择,有时候甚至要拼命不顾一切的去抓住。
因为,机会对于我们来讲,本来就很少!
当然,人生中很多很多的选择,也许只有在若干年后回头看的时候,才会意识到,当时那个选择对于人生是很关键和重要的。
诸如是否读书、第一份职业、在哪个城市工作、找什么样对象、什么时候结婚等,在当时的三岔路口,也是在很普通的一天里很平凡的一个决定。
所以,感谢国家和命运,我很幸运。感恩我走过的路,遇到的人,和我拥有的一切。
所以,心怀感恩,抓住我们能抓住的一切机会,向上生长,时间会给我们答案

《你这么拼,家里一定很穷吧》
《穷人家的孩子,有什么出路?》

1.被鄙视了

过年这段时间,有一个帖子是异常的火爆,已经在职场匿名社区讨论得很热烈,并且在知乎上关注度也不少。
事情是这样子的,一个滴滴员工年薪近 80 万左右,年纪 30 岁左右,可能自己感觉工资已经很不错了。
结果回老家的时候被鄙视了,说他不如亲戚的孩子,博士毕业二本大学教书,这个帖子下面的留言也很热烈。
具体大家可以看下图:

2.怎么看?

去年的时候,我还看到一个新闻,腾讯员工放弃75万年薪,回老家做公务员。
在这个帖子下面的很多留言,基本都是互联网行业从业者,所以大家都在诉苦,996、隐形福利等等。
说实话我身边的公务员和程序员都不少,甚至有好朋友在事业单位呆了好多年,所以对这两个行业都比较了解。
不同的人有不同的理解,这没有什么对与错,每个人选择自己最适合的那个就好。
不过这些年,互联网从业者转行去体制内,确实也是一种趋势了,在 Github 就有一个开源项目程序员考公指南。
目前这个程序员考公的开源项目,已经有超过 30000 用户 Star 了,可以想象有多少人在行动。
李雪琴说:宇宙的尽头是铁岭,现在还流行一句话是,职场的尽头是体制内(当然不是送外卖了)。

3.认真对比一下

我们认真来对比一下这两个职业。
1、工资。
如果仅仅拼工资的话,那么程序员基本上完胜,但像上面滴滴员工80万这个情况,哪怕在滴滴公司也不多见。
一般1-2线大学老师的工资,基本在1-2万元左右;而程序员的工资基本在1-5万左右,程序员相对更猛一点。
2、工作时长。
程序员基本都在996,工作强度很大;大学老师的工资时长比较弹性,肯定比程序员要好太多了。
3、职场生涯
在中国所有的事业单位,基本上都有这样一个特点。
刚开始的时候工资相对比较低,但是随着工龄的增长,工资增长会一直平稳上升,退休工资也比较高。
但是程序员职业,在前10年的时候,是一个很陡峭的上坡,但到了10年后又是一个平稳的下坡。
4、社会地位
程序员在大家的认知中,就是标准理工男的印象,除了能挣钱以外,其它的社会地位几乎没有。
但是如果做一位大学老师,一些职场的隐形福利相对比较丰富,甚至有一些是金钱买不来的。
当然了,还有很多其它的不同,这里就不一一对比了。
我个人觉得,这两个职业都是非常好的,完全没有必要去相互鄙视什么的,只是看哪个更适合自己。
如果是农村的孩子,程序员这个领域更适合一点,毕竟快速的改变家庭现状才是最紧迫的。
如果是中产家庭,那么选择大学老师这条路,相对会更轻松一些,比较稳定未来也很有保障。
大家也可以谈谈,如果是你会怎么选择?

而在去年的时候,我给自己定的一个小目标:帮助 100 个人挣到钱。从现在来看,这个目标定低了。
大家知道我们最牛的一个团队,每个月分成能到多少吗?4-5个人的团队每个月分成能到 2 万+
大家可能很好奇,我们都做了些什么,不着急我慢慢跟大家聊。
大家知道我有一个社群叫《就聊挣钱》,从 4 年前最初的 100 人到现在星球累计已经超过了 5000 人。
我是一个很直接的人,从社群的名称大家也可以看出来,这个社群的目的就是大家聚在一起探讨副业、挣钱。
3年前,社群发起了一个项目,叫做一起搞事情,刚开始只是实验性的尝试,没想到后来做了这么多。
接下来和大家具体聊聊。

2.一起搞事情

先给大家看一下,上个月一起搞事情某个团队的收益分成,这只是很普通的一个月。

我们再来看一个,我们星球第四期才成立的一个团队的分成,这个团队成立到现在还不到半年。

像这样的分成并不是一个月,而是每个月这些小伙伴都可以拿这么多,并且他们的收入每个月都会平稳增长
当然了,团队小伙伴付出了巨大的努力,早期团队甚至第一年 0
收入,第二年才有收入,再到每月最初几百到现在大几千。
我们最厉害的一个团队,今年有希望每个队员每月分成超 5000+,甚至有希望冲击每人每月 10000 +。
那么究竟什么是一起搞事情项目呢?
星球每一期,我们都会根据情况,发起一些我们认为有机会的项目,这些项目并不是马上挣钱,但是大都具有复利效应,而 且对个人成长有帮助,今天做的事情对明天有积累。
项目发起之后,每个项目会有一个队长带着大家一起做,项目挣钱之后大家根据根据事先约定的规则分钱;失败了不要紧,我们就继续尝试直到成功为止。
到现在为止,星球总共发起过 10 个项目,第一期 1 个,第二期 1 个,第三期 2 个,第四期 6 个。
最近孵化的两个项目,仅仅过了 3 个月就盈利了(虽然还不稳定,但已经超出我的预期)。
这两天,刚刚完成 2 个项目组队,今年至少还会发起 2 个及以上的搞事情项目,带着更多小伙伴尝试。

3.星球还有什么?

星球叫做《就聊挣钱》但不止于聊挣钱!
综合来讲,它是一个帮助人挣钱的社群,从大的方向来看,从两方面来帮助大家挣钱。
一方面,帮助大家发现最新的机会,以及见识各种挣钱案例;另一方面,就是手把手带着大家去挣钱
大家如果看了,我前两天写的文章《穷人家的孩子,有什么出路?》,就会明白为什么农村孩子大都发展不好。
那是因为他们缺乏选择权!
这个和挣钱的道理其实是一样的,只有见识到足够多的挣钱案例,才能找到真正适合自己做的事情。
如果你都不知道有这样的选项(挣钱方式),当你机会来临的时候,怎么能够抓得住它呢?
所以一方面就是给大家分享,市场上最新的机会和挣钱案例,我随手给大家截几张星球最近的分享。

接下来跟大家介绍,我们是如何手把手带着大家去挣钱。

4.手把手带着大家去挣钱

做社群半年之后,我们就发现一个普遍情况。
执行力比较好的朋友,看了很多案例后,自己摸索一阵,就能拿到结果。但更多的小伙伴,看完很多分享后,仍不知道如何下手。
很多小伙伴想做副业,却不知道自己适合做什么,能做什么?
其实不用纠结,没有人就能一开始就选对,都是在执行的过程中,慢慢才找到最适合自己的。
于是,我们就开始手把手带着大家去挣钱
第一个方式,就是前面介绍的一起搞事情,目前已经有超过10个一起搞事情的团队。
从最近的案例来看,坚持 3 个月以上的大概率就能挣到第一笔钱,也是目前成功率最高的模式。
我很明显感受到,最早参加一起搞事情的成员,他们本来对互联网一无所知,和很多球友一样就是小白。
不知道怎么写文章、怎么运营公众号、引流是干什么的、怎么能从互联网上挣到第一块钱。
几年过去了,变化非常大
做事的热情明显比之前更高了,执行力也比之前好了不知道多少倍,星球的训练营基本上也都第一批主动参与的。
分了多少钱,在我看来反而不重要了,最重要的是我感受和见证了他们的成长,未来我们还会一直战斗下去。
但是一起搞事情也有一个缺点,它是长期复利的项目,无法让队员短期内拿到结果,所以到了第四期我们又新增了一个模式。
训练营!
如果说搞事情是团队模式,那么训练营就是单机模式。
搞事情是一团队往前走,训练营集中一段时间,手把手教会大家之后,就可以单干了。
搞事情团队可以一直干,我们最久的团队已经3年多了;训练营一般是 10 、30天的培训周期,结束后我们还会保留一个交流群,剩下的就是自己往前冲了。
目前我们的训练营有,《知乎训练营》已经开了2期了,《咸鱼训练营》正在开第一期,《B站训练营》正在内测中。

不管大家什么时间加入星球,基本上每2个月,我们就会举办一次训练营或者一起搞事情的项目。
大家可以根据自己兴趣选择参加。
年前组织大家在星球写年终总结的时候,就发现一位小伙伴提到了我们星球的一起搞事情和训练营。

每次训练营结束之后,我们都会做一轮匿名调查,满分 10 分,大家给出的评价得分是 9.29 分。
星球第四期才开始尝试训练营,能得到这个评价已经很满意了,后期我们也会不断去尝试多做几个方向的训练营。

5.加入星球你能获得什么?

说实话到现在为止,都没做太大规模的宣传,因为就是想实打实的做一些事情,让星球内的朋友真正有收获。
所以我给大家罗列一下,加入这个星球到底能收获什么?
1、增长见识,积累赚钱方式+经验
我一直坚信一句话,选择大于努力,如果你的方向都错了,哪怕再努力都是白费,有时候反而越走越远。
那么选择的前提是什么?
那是你得了解足够多,你都不知道世界上有那么多可能性,那就只能在自己的圈圈内做选择。
增加见识,了解不同行业的挣钱方式、方法、模式。当有一天你做选择的时候,这些挣钱方式、运营套路,就有可能成为你的选项之一。
2、直接参与搞事情项目,赚钱分红
加入星友都可参与星球内发起的“一起搞事情项目”,目前已开展 10 期项目,项目组参与成员最高分红每月2万+。
3、加入训练营实战练习,提升赚钱能力
手把手带着大家去实践练习,目前已开展咸鱼训练营、知乎训练营,2022将继续开展,预计新增B站训练营、其它训练营等。
4、向领域内有结果的人“提问”+人脉
起搞事情项目。你在人生中遇到的任何问题,都可以在知识星球上向我和嘉宾免费提问,有时候过来人的一句话,就会让人少走很多弯路。
加入星球后,有对应的专属微信群,人脉、资源链接、信息交流,如果你乐于分享,帖子评为精选,还会邀请进【微笑俱乐部】,和更多大神交流学习。
5、精华优质内容“电子书”免费送
一期 10 万字、二期 20 万字,第三期 19 万字,全是实战优质的赚钱经验干货,大家加入星球 3 天后,都可以找我领取前三期的电子书。
这里仅放一下第三期部分精华电子书的目录。
(点击图片,可以放大)
6、有机会成为“合伙人”一起创业
希望找到一些志同道合的朋友,有机会合伙做事情,或是成为我们公司的合伙人。
严肃认真谈钱搞事情,做有价值的事情,做长期有复利的事情,我们有很多项目想要开展,长期需要靠谱合伙人。
目前已经有这样的案例,实习生变成我的合伙人,搞事情成员成为部分项目的合伙人,并且做得真的很好。
所以,严肃认真合法正经的谈钱搞事情,做有价值的事情,是我们现在且未来都会长期坚持去做的。

6.该抄底了!

从星球最初的 100 人,到现在 5000 多人,社群一直都在进化,从最开始我一个人运营,到现在有一个小团队为大家服务。
同时我们的服务也越来越重、越来越多元化
最开始只是星球内容的分享,到后来带着大家一起搞事情,到了第四期还组建了【微笑俱乐部】,星球交流群、训练营等等。
内容越多、服务越重,对应的我们成本也越来越高,所以星球决定在春节之后涨价,第五期的价格预计是 365 元。
在我们本次涨价之前,做最后一次活动,如果对星球感兴趣,这是大家最佳的抄底机会
可以给大家承诺的是,现在使用优惠券后的价格,不但过了 2 月不会再有,以后也不会有这个价格了。
本次活动,送价值 89 元优惠券,抵扣后仅需 199 元即可加入星球
已被抢光,补了一点,公号内回复:888

建议一定要在 2 月份加入,不只是新加入,就连老用户的续费也是最低的
根据之前的情况,优惠券数量有限,可能又是几个小时就会被抢光,希望大家不要错过
