Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to item transportation management. Package characteristics of a first package are determined. A set of unstructured data is processed to determine a transportation constraint associated with a transportation path. The package characteristics of the first package are compared to the transportation constraint. A determination is made that the package characteristics of the first package do not satisfy the transportation constraint based on the comparison. A reconfiguration recommendation is then issued to an individual associated with the first package in response to the determination that the package characteristics of the first package do not satisfy the transportation constraint.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system includes a processor(s) obtaining application programming interface (API) records from one or more computing resources in a shared computing environment, which include individual API data from each computing resource, identifying, for each API record, a relative path to an endpoint of a respective application deployed on the computing resource. The processor(s) combines the individual API data into merged API data, which includes modifying the relative path of each API record to identify a specific computing resource in the path. The processor(s) generates an interface to display to a client a list of APIs identified in the merged API data. The processor(s) obtains a selection from the client, of a specific API, and invokes, a connection, via the interface and using one or more security artifacts, to the endpoint and the respective application of the specific API.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media are provided for mapping device identifiers. Service event information of a first set of devices and a second set of devices may be obtained. The service event information may identify sets of device identifiers, sets of timestamps associated with the sets of devices, and sets of addresses associated with the sets of devices. A timestamp and an address of a device of the first set of devices may be identified and a time window may be determined based on the timestamp. Device identifiers of the second set of devices may be identified based on a comparison of the address with addresses of the second set of addresses that are associated with timestamps within the time window.

Abstract: A social networking system identifies a set of groups of which a user of the social networking system is not a member and selects a group for recommendation to the user based on a predicted affinity of the user for each identified group. The social networking system computes an affinity score of the user for each of one or more members of the selected group based at least in part on information describing a set of connections between the user and each member. Based on the scores, the social networking system selects a set of members of the group and generates a recommendation unit, wherein images associated with the selected members are arranged based on their scores and overlay at least a portion of an image associated with the group. The recommendation unit is communicated to the user to suggest that the user join the recommended group.

Abstract: A social networking system maintains various groups that each include one or more users and maintains information describing interactions by users with the social networking system. Based on interactions with the social networking system by the user, the social networking system determines a time interval when the user most frequently interacts with the social networking system. Additionally, the social networking system selects various content items provided to groups including the user based on amounts of interaction with content items provided to groups including the user by other social networking system users. During the time interval when the user most frequently interacts with the social networking system, information identifying a set of the selected content items is presented to the user via the social networking system.

Abstract: Sharing files associated with an application screen is provided. A selection of a user interface window may be received on a computer. The user interface may include a view of a file previously opened by an application generating the user interface window. The user interface window including the view of the previously opened file may be shared by the computer with one or more viewers. The computer may then share the previously open file with the one or more viewers while continuing to share the user interface window. The computer may choose to represent the view in any way and associate with the file (i.e., backing data) to be rendered in an alternative way.

Abstract: Several embodiments of an electric heater are disclosed, each of which includes a master or a satellite heating unit and a slave or a base heating unit. The base or slave unit selectably derives heating power and heating control either from the master or satellite unit through a disconnectable electrical cord or derives heating power and heating control independently there-from. The master or satellite and slave or base units are adapted for tool-free mechanical attachment and separation. A communicating arrangement distinguishes between the attachment and the separation and alters the heating power and control according thereto by causing transfer of at least some of the heating control of the slave or base unit from the slave or base unit to the master or satellite unit during the attachment.

Abstract: Disclosed are accessories for use on the cooking grate of a barbeque grill or such, which are adapted to enable the effective grilling of such food items as fish, pizza, small items, and delicate items, alone of in combination, and which overcome drawbacks of grilling such food items while allowing the food items to receive the flavor benefits of grilling.

Abstract: Disclosed is a grill having a firebox with an open upper end upon which rests a cooking grate. A burning chamber is disposed within the firebox and below the open upper end for containing a burning fuel material. A lid is hingedly affixed to the firebox and liftable to access either the grate or the burning chamber. A capture mechanism enables the lid to engage the grate such that when the capture mechanism is in a disengagement condition the lid may be lifted independently of the grate to access the grate, and when the capture mechanism is in an engagement condition lifting of the lid causes simultaneous lifting of the grate off of the firebox to allow access to the burning chamber.
