      Ajax suspend new CEO Alex Kroes on suspicion of insider trading club shares

      news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · Tuesday, 2 April - 12:22

    • The 49-year-old is said to have bought 17,000 shares last year
    • Kroes in post for just over two weeks amid turmoil at Ajax

    Ajax have suspended new CEO Alex Kroes with immediate effect on suspicion he has been involved in insider trading in the club’s shares, the club supervisory board said in a statement on Tuesday.

    The board said it had learned Kroes had bought more than 17,000 Ajax shares a week before his intended appointment was announced on 2 August 2023. “External legal advice indicates that he likely engaged in insider trading,” the board said in the statement.

      Jari Litmanen on Ajax, Barça and a wrist that ‘broke into eight pieces’

      news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · Sunday, 17 March - 08:00 · 1 minute

    The best footballer Finland has ever produced reflects on the highs and lows of his career and his anonymous life today in Estonia

    There are not many people who can get away with a leather jacket. Especially a fur-lined, double-breasted leather jacket. But Jari Litmanen, now 53, is definitely one of those people, as he strolls through the Old Town in his adopted home city of Tallinn. It would be impossible in Finland or Amsterdam but here he walks freely, seemingly just another middle-aged man trying to stay out of the cold. But between 1994 and 1996 he was the best footballer at Ajax, then the best male team in the world. Of course, he was loved for his talent. But he was also loved for the way he kicked the ball, the way he looked. Nineties Litmanen was a vibe, and it turns out the 2024 version isn’t far off.

    The Finn doesn’t grant many interviews, certainly not in person. His aloofness has fed the image that he is shy, reserved, mercurial, perhaps even a little arrogant. This is the opposite picture of the person who comes bouncing into the room, who beams comfortably at the camera. Litmanen is generous with his time, polite to all those around him, meticulous with his details. He is also surprisingly funny. Not laugh-a-minute funny, but there is a mischief in his face, a sparkle in those dark eyes. We talk about his recent appearance on the Finnish version of Top Gun, his new Instagram account (in which he shares positive news of Edwin van der Sar’s recovery from serious illness ), his acting as an Amsterdam diamond jeweller and comedic timing in Finnish children’s films as a Dutch art dealer and an Italian pizza delivery man .

      Ajax and Aston Villa players sent off as draw leaves tie on knife-edge

      news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · Thursday, 7 March - 19:48

    After all the hubbub among the Aston Villa supporters who spent the day hugging Amsterdam’s canals and the pre-match fanfare in the way of pyrotechnics and flares, in the end the game itself proved a frustrating stalemate, one to forget in a hurry. Ajax had the best chances to earn victory, Emiliano Martínez repelling an effort by Kenneth Taylor and Brian Brobbey earlier firing wide.

    Villa finished with 10 men, Ezri Konsa sent off in the 83rd minute after picking up two yellow cards. Unai Emery grimaced as Konsa headed down the tunnel after tangling with the substitute Chuba Akpom and, just three minutes later, Ajax’s Tristan Gooijer followed suit after a second yellow. These sides will reunite at Villa Park next Thursday with this Europa Conference League last-16 tie delicately poised.

      Report: Apple has already built its own ChatGPT-like chatbot

      news.movim.eu / ArsTechnica · Thursday, 20 July, 2023 - 20:56

    Apple has built its own large language model (LLM) AI framework and associated chatbot service similar to OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Bard, and Microsoft's ChatGPT-based Bing Chat, according to a new report.

    The project is codenamed "Ajax" internally, the sources say, though some engineers within the company colloquially refer to it as "Apple GPT." It is built on top of Google machine learning framework Jax and runs on Google Cloud.

    The news comes via an article from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman , who cites "people with knowledge of the efforts." Gurman has generally been accurate in his reports citing sources like these in the past, though he has seemingly misinterpreted what he was told on rare occasions.

      Surveillez la qualité de votre air avec Ajax Life-Quality

      news.movim.eu / Korben · Thursday, 29 June, 2023 - 08:00 · 3 minutes

    — En partenariat avec Ajax —

    2 années se sont écoulées depuis que j’ai testé pour la première fois le système d’alarme Ajax . Et après tout ce temps, je peux vous dire qu’elle ne m’a pas lâché. Le système a été aussi fiable que promis, avec des mises à jour régulières. De plus, la longévité des piles est impressionnante puisque jusqu’à présent, j’ai dû changer les piles uniquement dans deux modules.

    Je vous invite d’ailleurs à lire mon test de l’époque. Et il y a quelques semaines, j’ai eu le plaisir d’ajouter trois nouveaux modules à mon système.

    Les 2 premiers ne sont pas récents, mais ils vont m’être très utiles.

    Il s’agit de la prise connectée Socket Type F, qui permet depuis l’application Ajax de contrôler à distance l’allumage et l’extinction des appareils branchés dessus. Mais ce n’est pas tout puisque la Socket permet également de mesurer leur consommation énergétique et donc de savoir exactement quels appareils consomment le plus chez vous grâce à un signalement lumineux (vert, jaune, rouge). On peut aussi déclencher des scénarios en lien avec cette prise. Par exemple, si un appareil se met à trop consommer, devenant dangereux, la prise peut automatiquement se couper, ce qui minimise les risques éventuels d’incendie.

    Elle offre également une bonne protection contre les surtensions et surintensités et peut gérer des charges allant jusqu’à 2,5 kW.

    Je vais pouvoir m’en servir pour y brancher une caméra qui sera éteinte quand je suis là et qui s’allumera dès que j’activerai mon alarme. Ça évite d’avoir une caméra qui filme en permanence à l’intérieur de chez moi.

    J’ai également reçu le « bouton » Ajax qui permet d’une simple pression de déclencher par exemple une alerte d’urgence ou un scénario pour contrôler d’autres appareils comme l’éclairage, les volets roulants, et même les portes du garage…

    Ainsi, en un seul clic, ce petit bouton peut envoyer une demande d’aide en cas d’intrusion, de fuite de gaz, d’incendie ou de problème de santé, à la fois au centre de télésurveillance et à vos proches. Très pratique pour les commerçants qui ont besoin de déclencher une alerte en cas d’intrusion ou pour les personnes qui ont besoin d’une surveillance constante.

    Ce bouton intelligent dispose d’un système qui prévient les activations accidentelles et peut communiquer avec sa centrale sur une distance pouvant atteindre 1300 mètres. Associé à un « holder », on peut également le fixer facilement à n’importe quelle surface.

    Ces 2 premiers modules sont super intéressants puisqu’ils me permettent de tester la fonctionnalité « création de scénarios » d’Ajax que je vais vous expliquer juste après.

    Enfin, j’ai eu le plaisir de tester le Life-Quality, qui mesure la température, l’humidité et la qualité de l’air (CO2), ajoutant un aspect bien-être et santé à la sécurité de la maison. Il dispose de capteurs ultras précis ce qui vous permet d’avoir des informations en temps réel sur toutes les valeurs de la pièce où il se trouve.

    Cela permet d’évaluer la qualité de l’air de votre bureau ou de votre chambre par exemple. Et comme il peut fonctionner avec les scénarios Ajax, on peut par exemple déclencher automatiquement une clim s’il fait trop chaud, un chauffage s’il fait trop froid ou pourquoi pas recevoir une alerte quand il y a trop de CO2 dans la pièce.

    Bref, pour moi qui passe beaucoup de temps dans mon bureau, et qui peut avoir mal à la tête à la fin de la journée parce que trop de CO2, c’est un bon moyen d’éviter ça.

    Avec la fonctionnalité Scénarios d’Ajax, on peut donc s’amuser à automatiser ses modules, que ce soit via le Life-Quality, le bouton ou les prises connectées et ça c’est plutôt cool, car ça ajoute un aspect domotique intéressant à ce système d’alarme.

    Bref, en conclusion, deux ans après avoir sauté le pas vers le système d’alarme Ajax, je peux vous confirmer que c’est un choix que je referais sans hésitation tellement ça fonctionne bien. En plus, c’est simple à configurer et à utiliser. Pas besoin d’être geek ou informaticien et si vous cherchez un installateur agréé, c’est possible en cliquant ici.

    En tout cas, je suis très impatient de voir comment ça va évoluer dans les années à venir côté Ajax.

      The W Pattern Forex Trading Guide For Beginner

      Alla Traders · Wednesday, 28 December, 2022 - 15:46 edit · 1 minute

    The double bottom or W pattern is the most prevalent chart pattern used in trading. In fact, this pattern is so common that it may be taken as irrefutable evidence by itself that price action is not as totally random as many say. The double bottom pattern is one of the very few that perfectly depicts the market’s direction changing. At the bottom of a downtrend, the double bottom forms itself, offering potential long entries for buyers.

    What Is A Double Bottom (W Pattern)?

    The double bottom pattern is a technical pattern that can be used to identify a likely reversal in the Forex market. The double bottom emerges after an extended move down and can be utilized to discover purchasing opportunities on the way up. Because of the two-touched low and the change in trend direction from downtrend to uptrend, the pattern resembles the letter “W.”

      Movim 0.17 – Catalina

      Timothée Jaussoin · pubsub.movim.eu / Movim · Friday, 14 February, 2020 - 14:58 edit · 2 minutes

    Here comes a new exciting Movim release. Two months after Cesco, here comes Catalina.

    In this releases, many fixes but also some nice new features, both for the social and messaging sections of Movim.

    New features

    Global chatroom search

    From the chatrooms widget, you can now directly search rooms globaly and join them in a click. This new feature relies on the search.jabber.network service, that is also implemented in Conversations and Gajim.

    Global search

    New design for the XMPP forms

    The XMPP forms handling and display has been fully redesigned. With nice icons and proper labels it will now be simpler to configure Communities, chatrooms and other XMPP items.

    XMPP Form redesigned

    Disable social features

    Pod admins can now disable all the social features in one click in the admin panel. This is useful for those that only wants to use Movim as a chat frontend for their XMPP services.

    Messages retractation

    After ConverseJS Movim is the second XMPP client that implements the message retractation feature. This allow you to delete any published messages from the history. Be careful, this only works if the contact is also using a compatible client.

    Retracted message

    New night theme colors and design adjustments

    Some small design adjustments were made to improve user experience. Some useless paddings were also removed to give more space to the content (like around the chat bubbles).

    The night theme is now having darker, bluer colors, strongly inspired by the Aritim-Dark KDE/GTK theme.

    New dark theme

    Fixes and improvements

    Beside those changes, many things were fixed in this release, regarding chatroom presences handling, notification counters or complex JID handling (especially if you're using transport services such as IRC or Telegram).

    But the biggest internal change was to bring a new request type to the frontend. Now the current Movim UI (HTML + Javascript + CSS) can request the backend in 3 different ways regarding the usage.

    1. Pure WebSocket requests: the request and the response are not linked together. This is the default case for the Movim requests.
    2. Ajax requests to the daemon: this is useful when the UI needs to know if the message was handled by the server (useful when you publish articles or send chat messages) and if those messages needs to be processed by the daemon (to trigger XMPP requests for example)
    3. And, since this version, some good ol' pure Ajax requests. They directly requests the HTTP backend, without even touching the daemon internaly. This is useful to load pieces of the UI and allows parallelisation. With this changes you'll see that parts of the UI (especially on the chat page) are now loaded way faster, without disturbing the daemon.

    Requests

    What's next?

    In the upcoming weeks we're planning to do some maintenance on the XMPP services. Add some new features and do some administration. On Movim side, nothing really planned for now.

    That's all folks!

      Movim 0.13 – Coggia – Christmas Release

      Timothée Jaussoin · pubsub.movim.eu / Movim · Sunday, 24 December, 2017 - 12:34 · 4 minutes

    Two months after Movim 0.12 – Lovejoy here comes the new release of #Movim for #Christmas.

    Rework of the Movim core engine, here comes ZeroMQ

    This is maybe one of the biggest changes that is brought to our users for this version.

    Since 2014 Movim is using a full real-time architecture which was slightly improved and optimized through the years. Movim Coggia comes with a totally new way of handling and distributing the events and messages in the core of the project.

    ZeroMQ Logo

    The daemon is now using ZeroMQ (and the related PHP library php-zmq) to take care of all those internal communications. This allows Movim to be fully multi-threaded and to properly prevent some user sessions to slowdown others if they are using the backend intensively.

    Following those changes, many buffers were removed to unlock the full potential of #ZeroMQ. This means that the messages and events are now directly pushed to you (or to your server) without waiting lanes. Movim now feels way more snappier on all devices (especially mobiles).

    Animations for a smooth UI

    Related to those changes, some small #animations were introduced in the UI to make it smoother to load and be displayed. This allows Movim to push a little bit forward our goal: bring modern XMPP features in a light and fast interface to everyone :)

    Here comes Ajax, again!

    This version also brings back HTTP #Ajax requests in the project. Those will only be used in specific cases, mainly to ensure the good delivery of some requests to the backend.

    The first place where this is now used is for the chat messages delivery, they were previously sent using Websockets. This previous method didn't guaranty the message was successfully handled by the backend. By sending those messages using Ajax requests we can now know if we had a network failure or some troubles on the line and then display a proper message to the user.

    This small change is especially useful on mobile when the network is unstable and had proved to work quite well on 2G networks :)

    Nigthmode, your eyes will love it!

    This version is not only coming with changes in the project's pipes but also brings some nice improvements and features to our ever-growing user base.

    The Movim Nightmode

    A big refactoring was made in the color handling of the project, allowing Movim to now handle more easily custom colors (and maybe unlock "themes" in the future). The first step was then to offer our users a #Nightmode. You can enable it in your configuration panel :)

    And because the configuration is shared between all the Movim instances you'll be able to have it everywhere you log-in.

    Chatrooms

    Several bugs were fixed in the chatroom session handling to take care of the different behaviors between the existing XMPP servers. A loading state was also added to notify the user to wait for the full connection of his account with the chatroom before doing anything with it (posting messages, inviting users…).

    The connected users list is also now sorted by name and Movim gives you some proposal to autocomplete your chatroom address when you are typing it.

    But also…

    The login form has been slightly redesigned and simplified as well as the form to configure your Community (the advanced form is still available by pressing the menu button).

    Redesigned login page

    The Miho stickers pack has been fully completed and now includes 16 unique stickers for all our users :). The full pack has also been published on the LINE Creator Market, if you are also using LINE you can now support the project by buying (or offering) this pack of stickers.

    The Likes are now collapsed in one little block below the articles to give space to the comments.

    Collapsed likes to gives space to the comments

    With the help and feedback of the users, many small bugs related to the articles publication were fixed.

    ReactPHP, the library that Movim is using to handle the real-time part of the project has been updated to its latest version.

    Help us to push Movim further in 2018!

    In 2018 we would like to do everything to bring Movim to the maximum of users and show them all the possibilities offered by the platform. For that we will need your help.

    You can naturally help us by directly contributing to the project by discussing new features and improvements on our official chatroom, fixing bugs or helping with the translations.

    But we are especially looking for people that would like to talk about Movim online by writing articles telling how they are using the project, giving nice examples and tutorials on how to play with Movim and the XMPP environment and more generally spread the word about project.

    Finally you can help us by giving a bit of money to cover our monthly costs for the servers, domains and other expenses. We hope that 2018 will see Movim and the Movim services to be fully funded by the community. To help us with that you can become a Movim Patreon or donate some money using Paypal.

    We wish a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all of you. See you in 2018 for more exciting features and surprises!

    Happy New Year 2018

    The Movim team.
