    1. blazes

      This word is ambiguous. It has several meanings. This is what poet thinking is all about for me--subverting the routine. First, the word is about fire, right, but if you have every looked at my posts (count on two hands my very fine viewership) you know that I write about trail blazes. I want the word to be a fork and to mean both of these simultaneously. My poems are designed to carry a lot of freight. What do you think about ambiguity?

    2. ethical blazes

      What ethical blazes have books kindled in you? Most poetry tries to freshen the language. Most poets are work necromancers. They bring what is routine and everyday back into clear and plain air. This is called a metaphor. Values don't really burn, but I am trying to conjure up a feeling here where what we believes has the intensity of a fire. I am trying to do that with a few words and not a lot like here. Maybe poetry is all about translation and summary put together. What do you think poetry is supposed to be or do?

    1. The objective function f and the inequality constraints g1, g2 and g3 being convex, every local solution to this problem is also a global solution by theorem 2.2

      Do the inequality constrains have to be convex functions as well? This is not considered in def. 2.13.

    1. Actually just returning the loginDaoCall works fine. I dont really get what's different as it is the looked like it was the same instance, but probably not.

      So the posted answer wasn't necessary/correct? Which part of the answer was incorrect/unneeded?

      I wish this OP comment included the full version of code that worked.

      I don't understand this OP comment. Wasn't OP already returning loginDaoCall? So maybe the only thing they could mean is that they just needed to change it to return loginDaoCall.then(...) instead...

      That would be consistent with what the answer said:

      the promise returned by the further .then() does also get rejected and was not handled.

      So I guess the unnecessary part of the answer was adding the return true/false...

    1. Now long-haired Achaeans are mocking us, saying we’ve put forward as a champion one who looks good, but lacks a strong brave mind.

      Why do you think when the Trojans are mentioning the Greeks they mention them as "long-haired Achaeans"?

      My take on it is that its an insult as to call them out to look like women because they have long hair as Homer does include insults that relate to the opposite sex.

    2. Despicable Paris, handsomest of men, but woman-mad seducer. How I wish you never had been born or died unmarried.

      Why do you think the statement of "handsomest of men" was used by Homer when it is stated that Hector is insulting him?

      In my opinion, he is trying to create a reflection of how he looks the part of a hero but, lacks the internal motivations to be a real hero.

    1. <slot ref:img data-visible="{{visible}}" /> In the above everything on <slot> is lost since slot is a space in the HTML, not an actual element. How could we translate this to zero or ten elements inside the slot?

      But I think this is a solved problem with current Svelte: just pass the lets to the slot content, and the slot content can decide how to pass those let props on to any or all of its child elements as it sees fit...

    1. Part of the reason is there’s a slight lag. No matter how good your internet is, no matter how fast it is, it seems we have this millisecond—maybe a few milliseconds—delay. So the communication isn’t in real time, even though it seems like it is. Our brains subconsciously pick up on the fact that things aren’t quite right. And the fact that things are out of sync and we’re accustomed to them being in sync when it’s face-to-face communication, our brains try to look for ways to overcome that lack of synchrony. After a few calls a day, it starts to become exhausting.

      Does this mean, if I'm naturally slow to react even in real life, it'll be exhausting for the interlocutor?

    1. we calculated for every participanta similarity indexSdescribing the correlation of responses

      S = 2P - 1 where P is the proportion of answers the same between both conditions

         -1 (opposite)    0 (no similarity)    + (same)
      

      If P is high:

      • S = 2(.9) - 1
      • S = 0.8

      If P is low:

      • S = 2(.2) - 1
      • S = -0.6
    1. Question design is one of the key tools we have at our disposal when trying to get people to work together. The art of turning a “should” statement into a “how might we” statement works something like this: for any “should” question, understand what the goal of the proposed solution is, and then frame a “how” question around that goal.

    1. Yet, this is another reason why Sanskrit seems more suitable than other languages. The strict grammar rules, syllables, and words have reduced ambiguity making the literal meaning word and sentence. This definitely reduces the percentage of abstract meanings in the language.

      I wonder how Lojban compares.

    1. their structure formed by interrelated dimeric polypeptide chains

      TGF beta forms dimer to bind with TGF beta receptor. Homodimers are reported for beta 1 and 2; does heterodimer exists?

    1. This isn’t an accident. OpenOffice’s sidebar code was copied and incorporated into LibreOffice. The Apache OpenOffice project uses the Apache License, while the LibreOffice uses a dual LGPLv3 / MPL license. The practical result is LibreOffice can take OpenOffice’s code and incorporate it into LibreOffice — the licenses are compatible. On the other hand, LibreOffice has some features — like font embedding — that don’t appear in OpenOffice. This is because the two different licenses only allow a one-way transfer of code. LibreOffice can incorporate OpenOffice’s code, but OpenOffice can’t incorporate LibreOffice’s code. This is the result of the different licenses the projects chose.

      What part of LGPLv3 / MPL prevents LibreOffice code from being incorporated back into OpenOffice's Apache Licensed code??

    1. The rela-tively large-sized AR NTDs, however, wrap around the LBDs,blocking the access of SRC-3 to the LBD. Consequently,SRC-3 is solely recruited by the AR NTD, and p300 recruitmentis stabilized by contacting two AR NTDs

      AR NTD wrap around its LBD. Does AR NTD mimic the function of some NR co-activator? These conclusion is only true when AR agonist R1881 is added, check figure 4

    1. In the Set class we already called this - and difference, which it is ok but not really accurate because of the previous explanation, but probably not worthwhile to change it.

      Is this saying that the name difference is inaccurate?

      Why is it inaccurate? You even called it the "theoretic difference" above.

      Is that because "relative complement" would be better? Or because the full phrase "theoretic difference" [https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/set-theoretic_difference] is required in order for it to be accurate rather than just "difference"?

    1. Flash dont l’activité est déclenchée

      C'est une drôle de comparaison dans la mesure ou le Flash est aujourd'hui obsolète et que les contenus dans ce format sont irrécupérable faute d'avoir les clefs de déchiffrement. Est-ce le même cas pour Proust ?

    1. Mais il nous faut maintenant revenir au problème de l’expression qui marque l’éternel commencement, l’univers en perpétuelle création.

      Je ne suis pas sûre de saisir l'idée ici

    1. So why isn't there an easy way to remove an element from such an array in a way that respects both the order and number (count) of each element? Why do all methods for removing elements from an array assume that you always want to remove all matching elements from the receiver, with no option to do otherwise?
    1. JavaScript functions are themselves objects — like everything else in JavaScript — and you can add or change properties on them

      how can we add or change properties on a function?

      edit: see below section (Custom objects)

    1. Partant du phénomène physique du comportement des vagues qui présentent différents modèles de diffraction – par exemple les formes qui apparaissent lorsque nous jetons une pierre dans un volume aqueux – et qui résultent de la réaction des vagues en rencontrant un obstacle (2007, 28)

      c'est une phrase nominale ?

    2. décèdera des suites d’un accident à cheval

      C'est une hypothèse totalement parce que je ne connais pas bien le passage (si passage il y a) de l'accident de cheval, mais est-ce qu'il y aurait peut-être une piste ou un élément d'analyse à trouver dans cet objet du cheval (objet sexuel chez Freud) qui est à la fois un ancien corps "technique" de voyager ?

    3. « it is after all, the story of a ‘nervous Narrator’ who struggles against negative hereditary factors in his family (personified in the semi-invalid aunt Léonie), and who suffers from a chronic lack of drive that makes him prefer salon time to productive time alone 

      Il me semblait que dans les chapitres précédents les citations en anglais été traduites

    4.  The disruption and constriction of one’s habitual world thus correlates with a new relation to one’s body. In pain, the body or a certain part of the body emerges as an alien presence » (Leder 1990, 76).

      peut-être proposer une traduction en note ?

    5.  L’espace intercorporel qui se fait jour existe en deçà des paramètres usuels qui nous permettent de saisir l’expérience humaine (langage, lois sociales), elle en efface les signifiants.

      je ne ne comprends pas bien la succession des sujets ici

    6. Autrement dit, si cette technique n’avait pas existé, le narrateur n’aurait pas pu exprimer la même chose

      Peut-être est-ce juste une question d'expression, parce que je saisis bien l'idée du paragraphe, mais cette phrase résonne à la lecture selon l'adage "avec des si, on mettrait Paris en bouteille"

    7. Si la voix inépuisable qui résonne à travers la Recherche s’adresse directement au lectorat, on peut être sensible à ce qu’elle recèle

      La construction "si...., alors ..." implique souvent une contradiction sousentendue, ici je ne la vois pas. Peut-être choisir une construction plus causale ?

    1. In this case, we notice that comment.post and post should belong to the same database object. But, is Rails smart enough to know that the comment should be removed from both of the associations? Or are comment.post and post different representations of the same database row?

    1. With this second scheme, the DBMS stores the physical addressof versions in the index entries. This approach is only applicablefor append-only storage, since the DBMS stores the versions in thesame table and therefore all of the indexes can point to them. Whenupdating any tuple in a table, the DBMS inserts the newly createdversion into all the secondary indexes. In this manner, the DBMScan search for a tuple from a secondary index without comparingthe secondary key with all of the indexed versions. Several MVCCDBMSs, including MemSQL and Hekaton, employ this scheme

      Physical Pointers: 只对Append-only storage有用

      问题:“since the DBMS stores the versions in the same table and therefore all of the indexes can point to the”这句话怎么理解

      Likewise, using physical pointers is better for read-intensive workloads because an index entry points to the exact version. But it is slower for update operations because this scheme requires theDBMS to insert an entry into every secondary index for each new version, which makes update operations slower

    1. Dans la dichotomie qui s’établit entre l’aplatissement et la fragmentation de l’expérience (l’appréhension cinématographique du voyage en automobile) d’une part, et son intensification (« quand notre imagination nous portait du lieu où nous vivions jusqu’au cœur d’un lieu désiré »).

      est-ce volontairement ici une phrase nominale ?

    2. à la croisée de la vie intérieure et des désordres situés au-delà des limites corporelles

      c'est une belle formule mais peut-être un peu trop forte dans le style, peut-être l'alléger un peu pour que l'idée soit plus évidente à la lecture ?

    1. T-34 caused the degradation of the full-length AR, but not the tau-5-deleted AR

      tau-5 locates between AF-1 and DBD, deletion of this region may cause significant protein structure change, such change may result in different AR degradation profile which is irrelavant with UT-34

    1. tunnel splitting

      What exactly is tunnel splitting? The essay mentions this various times without clearly explaining what it is, and whenever I search it up online multiple things are said about it.

      From what I could understand, quantum spin tunnel splitting makes it so that the magnetization of a system can "switch between states with opposite magnetization that are separated by an energy barrier much larger than thermal energy". But what exactly happens during tunnel splitting? And why are there different ones mentioned in the article? [magnetization tunneling, zero-field tunnel splitting, ground-state tunnel splitting]

      I also understand that this phenomenon "defies classical physics" because of magnetization switching. How is that possible?

    1. Related concepts in other fields are: In natural language, the coordinating conjunction "and". In programming languages, the short-circuit and control structure. In set theory, intersection. In predicate logic, universal quantification.

      Strictly speaking, are these examples of dualities (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duality_(mathematics))? Or can I only, at strongest, say they are analogous (a looser coonection)?

    1. 1. Disabling concrete extension update. That's what I wanted! You can do this by editing the extensions manifest json-file on Windows: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\<EXTENSION-ID>\<VERSION>\manifest.json (find out the extensions ID by enabling developer mode in the extension settings page) on Ubuntu for Chromium: ${HOME}/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences In this file set "update_url" property to something invalid like "https://localhost" for example. For now according to given url updating of that extension is simply impossible.
