In March, the state of Utah passed a law[1] restricting which flags could be flown by city councils. This stopped the council of Salt Lake City from flying the pride, trans, and Juneteenth flags. One of the kinds of flag allowed by the new law is an official city flag. Therefore, Salt Lake City has just introduced three new flags, which are the three flags just mentioned with a sago lily in the corner.[2].

Stats help? I have a sequence of bytes "a[]" where I know the mean and standard deviation. Suppose I want to group a into "n" bands (not necessarily contiguous in the original "a"). What I want is a lookup table "b[256]" where, for each byte in a[], b[a] will yield a number 0..n-1 with approx equal probability across the whole of a. I think I used to know how to do this, but A-levels were a long time ago.
(written by me, ages ago) when once I stop and take account of these that God has granted me upon the earth, the loves, the friends, the work, that charm and please these things I count inestimable worth; when once I stop, I learn that I am rich beyond the dreams of emperors and kings and light is real, and real these riches which exceed the worth of all material things... when thus I stop, I cannot understand when few and feeble sunbeams cannot find their way into that drab and dreary land, the darkness of the middle of my mind. yet darkness cannot take away my joy, for night can only hide, and not destroy.
By the way: I'm part of a fledgeling housing co-op called Citrus Housing Co-operative Ltd (in Wales, Tai Sitrws). We are buying houses in Manchester and Swansea, and adapting them. All of us are queer or disabled, most both, and many of us have other kinds of oppression. We're fully mutual, so the adult tenants jointly own the houses. We are five adults, four teenagers (one fostered), one cat, and one dog. If you would like to lend us money at compound interest, let's talk: info@sitrws.org . Boosts appreciated in any case. image
