What is Jackett?

Daily tags chasing tracker domain moves, login changes and freeleech detection

Jackett continues to ship a tag most mornings, each one a short auto-generated commit list of indexer definition edits. The newest adds a cookie login variant for HD-Space and captcha-aware login for funfile; the day before was a sweep of domain bumps and download-volume-factor detection corrections across torrenttip, magnetcat, 52bt, torrenteros, tocashare and seedcore. No release in this window touches the application itself.

What is traumar?

Trauma registry statistics in R, tightening the numbers it reports against the literature.

traumar computes trauma-centre performance measures from registry data, including relative mortality metrics, SEQIC quality indicators and predicted survival probability. The recent releases are dominated by correctness rather than coverage: 1.2.5 changed how the denominator for SEQIC indicator 7 is derived so it reflects the definitive care population rather than a raw row count, and 1.2.3 realigned probability_of_survival() with published coefficients. Version 1.2.6 completes a deprecation, turning the old n_decimal argument into an error.

Daily tags chasing tracker domain moves, login changes and freeleech detection

◆ Current state

Jackett continues to ship a tag most mornings, each one a short auto-generated commit list of indexer definition edits. The newest adds a cookie login variant for HD-Space and captcha-aware login for funfile; the day before was a sweep of domain bumps and download-volume-factor detection corrections across torrenttip, magnetcat, 52bt, torrenteros, tocashare and seedcore. No release in this window touches the application itself.

◆ Where it's heading

This is maintenance as a product, and the cadence is the feature. Trackers rotate domains, add captchas, switch to cookie auth or vary their freeleech percentages, and Jackett absorbs each change within a day — Scenetime was added and dropped within days, 720pier removed and then restored by revert. The recurring shift from form login to cookie and captcha handling across sites is the one visible pattern: the definitions are steadily taking on more anti-bot handling.

◆ Prediction

Expect the same daily cadence of definition edits, with more cookie and captcha login variants as trackers tighten access. The entries show no application-level work planned or in progress.

Trauma registry statistics in R, tightening the numbers it reports against the literature.

◆ Current state

traumar computes trauma-centre performance measures from registry data, including relative mortality metrics, SEQIC quality indicators and predicted survival probability. The recent releases are dominated by correctness rather than coverage: 1.2.5 changed how the denominator for SEQIC indicator 7 is derived so it reflects the definitive care population rather than a raw row count, and 1.2.3 realigned probability_of_survival() with published coefficients. Version 1.2.6 completes a deprecation, turning the old n_decimal argument into an error.

◆ Where it's heading

This is a package whose outputs are reported numbers, and it is behaving accordingly: the notable changes in this window alter results rather than add features. A denominator computed as a row count instead of a filtered population, and a survival calculation not matching the coefficients it cites, are both the kind of defect that quietly propagates into published figures, and both were corrected here. Around that sit in-house validation helpers written deliberately to avoid a new dependency, and a steady tidy-up of tests and tooling.

◆ Prediction

Expect the validation family introduced in 1.2.4 to be applied more widely across the package's entry points, now that it exists and is deliberately kept internal. Further SEQIC indicators being reviewed against their definitions looks likely given indicator 7 needed it, though the entries name no specific one as next.
