Jira provides a wide range of REST API resources that helps developers create communication between Jira and other applications. Earlier this year, Atlassian developers announced a new module and REST APIs interface that is described as more straightforward to implement and maintain. REST (Representational State Transfer) is an architectural style and approach to communications that is often used in the development of web services. It is the mostly widely used API paradigm on the web and now it is frequently used to connect applications to the Cloud. So let’s take brief look into Jira REST API. At Valiantys, we use Jira REST API to execute repetitive tasks like creating issues with attachments in bulk, or when developing apps for Jira. We have also seen some of our clients use REST API to create a specific report or to sync Jira issues with other systems. ![]() ![]() ![]() The dress has a really cute floral pattern in black and white, but the dominant color is teal. ![]() Personally, I prefer to pair two bright colors with a third color in a jewel tone to add more dimension.įor my tertiary color look, I used a bright teal midi dress as a base. For example, pastels work great with pastels, so baby pink, baby blue, and baby yellow actually create a cohesive look. My recommendation to start off with a look like this is to try to keep it in the same family. It gets trickier to pair them when you don’t have a direct line telling you what’s directly opposite of any given color. This means all the pinks, teals, ambers, pastels, neons, jewel tones, etcetera, encompass the tertiary colors. Tertiary colors, while not represented in the color wheel, are actually every other color, shade, and tint in between our primary colors and secondary colors. Now we’re getting to the tricky part of color blocking. For example: red (full saturation primary color) + purple (half saturation of blue) = magenta. The only tip I have is to try to use bright shades instead of jewel-tones or pastels because those are no longer primary colors and are harder to pair together cohesively.īy Kwamikagami – Own work based on: Color star-en (tertiary names)-ar.svg by باسم, CC BY-SA 4.0Ī tertiary color is made by mixing full saturation of one primary color with half saturation of another primary color. Play with these colors and combinations and be confident because primary colors work together no matter what. You might have a red sweatshirt or blouse and yellow accessories. Grab the bluest pair that you have, and stay away from really dark (almost black) or really light (almost white) jeans.īuild the rest of the colors around that item. If you want to create an outfit with primary colors, a good way to start is to use blue jeans as your base. To create a color-blocking outfit using these colors, you literally just need a piece of item in each of the primary colors. Basically, this means that every other color is created with some combination of these three. ![]() These colors can be combined to make other colors, but primary colors cannot be created by mixing other colors together. The primary colors are red, blue, and yellow. Primary colors By Maulucioni – Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0 With that being said, let’s get to color blocking! Primary color outfit The categories below are based on the color theory and color wheel, and I’ll explain each one, the colors they encompass, and then show some example outfits. Since color theory takes a bit more of space and explaining, I decided to break down the inspiration looks into categories. You can still create bold color-blocking looks with neutrals, especially with black and white, but the result is not as striking. But they are still used to create lines, balance the look, or give the illusion of even more contrast.

Though the microcode update is not mandatory and Intel provides an opt-out mechanism, users are left with a challenging decision between security and performance. The ramifications of Downfall are not restricted to specialized tasks like AI or HPC but may extend to more common applications such as video encoding. While these reductions were less than Intel's forecasted 50% overhead, they remain significant, especially in High-Performance Computing (HPC) workloads. For instance, two Xeon Platinum 8380 processors were around 6% slower in certain tests, while the Core i7-1165G7 faced performance degradation ranging from 11% to 39% in specific benchmarks. Phoronix tested the Downfall mitigations and reported varying performance decreases on different processors. However, there's concern over the performance impact of the fix, potentially affecting AVX2 and AVX-512 workloads involving the Gather instruction by up to 50%. Intel has responded by releasing updated software-level microcode to fix the flaw. The entire list of affected CPUs is here. The flaw affects Intel mainstream and server processors ranging from the Skylake to Rocket Lake microarchitecture. It inadvertently exposes internal hardware registers, allowing malicious software access to data held by other programs. ![]() The vulnerability is linked to Intel's memory optimization feature, exploiting the Gather instruction, a function that accelerates data fetching from scattered memory locations. Intel has recently revealed a security vulnerability named Downfall (CVE-2022-40982) that impacts multiple generations of Intel processors. ![]() ![]() ![]() We also included the Uncle Viner Gift Set on this list, as it has good power despite some of its cheaper accessories, and it comes in an attractive gift box.Īt the end of a long workday, as the perfect accompaniment to a fine meal, or in recognition of a cherished friendship or accomplished goal, there's nothing quite like a great glass of wine.

![]() ![]() An example was the planned New Mexico City international airport, intended to replace an airport that has reached capacity. ![]() Airports may also be regarded as emblematic of national pride and so the design may be architecturally ambitious. Designing an airport even for domestic traffic or as "non-hub" has, from the beginning, required extensive co-ordination between users and interested parties – architects, engineers, managers and staff all need to be involved. The construction and operation of an international airport depends on a complicated set of decisions that are affected by technology, politics, economics and geography as well as both local and international law. Terminal expansion construction site in the background. Design and construction Finnair Airbus A319 at the Helsinki Airport in Vantaa, Finland. Other international airports, such as Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong, have been decommissioned and replaced when they reached capacity or technological advances rendered them inadequate. The advent in the early 1960s of jet aircraft such as the Boeing 707 with the range to fly non-stop between Australia or New Zealand and Hawaii, meant that a mid-Pacific stop was no longer needed and the airport was closed to regular commercial use. Canton Island Airport, for example, in the Phoenix Islands ( Kiribati), after serving as a military airport during World War II, was used as a refuelling stop by commercial aircraft such as Qantas which stationed ground crew there in the late 1950s. International airports sometimes serve military as well as commercial purposes and their viability is also affected by technological developments. In Sydney, Rose Bay, New South Wales, was chosen as the flying-boat landing area. At the far end of the longest international route (which became the Kangaroo Route), on-water landing areas were found in places such as Surabaya and in the open sea off Kupang. Since four-engined land planes were unavailable for over-water operations to international destinations, flying boats became part of the solution. In the early days of international flights, infrastructure was limited, "although if engine problems arose there were plenty of places where aircraft could land". The precursors to international airports were airfields or aerodromes. In the United States, Douglas Municipal Airport in Arizona became the first international airport of the Americas in 1928. It was closed and supplanted by Croydon Airport in March 1920. In August 1919, Hounslow Heath Aerodrome, in London, England, was the first airport to operate scheduled international commercial services. History Qantas Empire Airways International Short Empire flying boat services arriving at Rose Bay, Sydney ( c. By the second decade of the 21st century, over 1,200 international airports existed with almost two billion international passengers along with 50 million metric tonnes of cargo passing through them annually. ![]() ![]() The physical structures that serve millions of individual passengers and flights are among the most complex and interconnected in the world. Detailed technical standards have been developed to ensure safety and common coding systems implemented to provide global consistency. International airports often also host domestic flights, which often help feed both passengers and cargo into international ones (and vice versa).īuildings, operations, and management have become increasingly sophisticated since the mid-20th century, when international airports began to provide infrastructure for international civilian flights. International airports are usually larger than domestic airports, and they must feature longer runways and have facilities to accommodate the heavier aircraft such as the Boeing 747 commonly used for international and intercontinental travel.
