Abstract: Example implementations relate to print media stacks. In some examples, a device may include a sheet channel to guide a sheet of print media within the sheet channel above and separated in a vertical direction from a stack of printed media when the sheet of print media exits a print path of a printer. The device may include a plurality of clamps to control alignment of the sheet of print media on the stack of printed media when the sheet channel moves outboard from the sheet of print media to allow the sheet of print media to fall onto the stack of printed media, wherein the plurality of clamps sequentially pin the sheet of print media to the stack of printed media from a middle portion of the sheet of print media outward.

Abstract: A system includes a memory, a processor in communication with the memory, and a compiler. The compiler is configured to initialize at least one class for an application at compilation time, start a framework at compilation time, and serialize a framework container of the framework into a native image at compilation time. The processor is configured to run the native image to start the application.

Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, a printing system is described. The printing system includes a media sensor to detect a presence of media at a particular point within the printing system. A stepper motor moves media through the printing system. A controller 1) monitors, for at least one pass of the media, a number of steps of the stepper motor to pass the media between the media sensor and a print position, 2) stores the number of steps of the stepper motor in a memory device, and 3) adjusts operation of subsequent passes of the media based on stored number of steps. A memory device of the printing system stores the number of steps of the stepper motor, for at least one pass of the media.

Abstract: A system includes a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to process at least one application file. Additionally, the processor is configured to generate at least one bytecode from the at least one application file prior to a start-up time responsive to processing the at least one application file. A first bytecode of the at least one bytecode contains a metamodel and the metamodel handles object validation. Additionally, the metamodel is directly generated as the bytecode prior to the start-up time and after a compile time. The processor is also configured to store the first bytecode.

Abstract: A system includes a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to process at least one application file and generate bytecode, responsive to processing the at least one application file, from the at least one application file prior to start-up time. The bytecode contains a metamodel and the metamodel controls dependency injection. Additionally, the metamodel is classified as at least one of a first class that is generated at start-up time, a second class that is generated as source files and compiled at compile time, and a third class that is generated directly as bytecode. The processor is also configured to store the bytecode associated with the third class of metamodel.

Abstract: A system includes a memory, a processor in communication with the memory, and a recorder. The recorder is configured to obtain a proxy for each respective real object. Each respective real object is related to a respective service. The recorder is also configured to record a sequence of each invocation on each respective proxy and generate an intermediate representation of an application that is configured to invoke the sequence of each invocation on each real object associated with each respective proxy.

Abstract: The invention relates to improvements to harmonica holders, designed to allow a musician to play a harmonica and another instrument at the same time. The inventor's control arm and extender tubes allow a musician to adjust the position of a harmonica (in the horizontal and vertical plains) to their personal preference. After adjustment, the control arm allows a musician to quickly raise a harmonica up to their preferred position, which locks a harmonic in place and eliminates the need to re-set it each time it is used. To unlock a harmonica and drop it completely out of the way for singing or to remove it from their head area, they would simply tap the end of the control arm up, to disengage it. The neck support is also adjustable for best fit, while a pull down loop (attached to a harmonica cross member) allows a musician to quickly change harmonicas.

Abstract: A system includes a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor is configured to, prior to runtime, process application metadata for an application. The application metadata is classified into a first class used only for deployment, a second class used only for runtime, and a third class used for both runtime and deployment. Responsive to processing the application metadata, the processor is configured to build a deployment model from the processed application metadata. Prior to runtime, the processor is configured to generate an intermediate representation of the application from the deployment model. The intermediate representation of the application includes direct calls for classes associated with the second class of metadata and the third class of metadata.

Abstract: A method and system are provided that may centralize the management of applications that access the data of social networks via API calls. A central service may generate tokens at a generation rate that permit an application to access an API. The tokens may be distributed to queues associated with certain content types. The relative distribution of tokens to each queue may be determined by rules. A queue may release tokens to applications that function to access the content type associated with the queue. The token generation rate and rules may be selected to prevent violation of the rate limits for the API.

Abstract: A system and method for customized scheduling of sources, including breaking down a source of content into at least two categories, including posts and engagements, and gathering content related to a specific source. A scheduler handles scheduling of posts and engagement for a single source and entities that are due to be crawled are sent to a scheduling queue, in which each content type for a source can have its own queue. A process points to the correct scheduler queue in order to request content to be crawled, attaches to the proper queue, processes requests, queries the social network for content, parses the response and sends any new data to be saved to the system.
