I have an solid state drive that I develop websites on.  The reason I do this is because I work on a few different computers.  Historically, I created separate developing environments to use for each machine.  This was OK, but if the system changed for some reason, eg, new OS install, it was a pain.  So I bought a USB 3.0 enclosure and put a solid state drive in there and it's pretty darn fast, which is good.  I was working with three Windows machines and I could simply hook up the drive, launch my XAMPP server and away I went, developing websites: using Dreamweaver, Komodo, Notepad++, Eclipse, etc.  Recently, however, one of my Windows machines' hard drive went down and instead of going back to Windows in this case, I went with Ububntu 12.04.  I have several Ubuntu workstations and servers and I like Linux, so I thought his was a great opportunity to transition.  I went to work installing and trying to set up a LAMP server and, besides from XAMPP 64-bit compatibility out of the box, I'm seeing other issues with getting this Linux server running.  I will keep trying to resolve this, but in the meantime...  my question is, has anyone ever successfully run both WAMP and LAMP from the same SSD (formatted to NTFS)?  I'm sure there are lots of barriers to this happening, like local file system, OS libraries, dependencies, etc.  But I was thinking it would be cool if it could be done.  I'm no expert, so if this is just plain old stupid, please don't hesitate to let me know.
This is a  about  the use of a *AMPP's stack.    I recently had a talk with some experienced people and they suggested to me not to use a WAMP stack, and instead install apache, mysql and php separately.  I don't understand why they have suggested this, though, so can anyone tell me?  Is there a particular disadvantage of WAMP, or a particular advantage to installing all of them separately?  Since a WAMP stack itself is composed of apache, mysql and php, then what's the difference between using the WAMP stack and installing them all separately?
Easily measure elapsed time I'm a beginner with blender so this is probably a very basic question.  I have this basic model below. I've ended up with a lot of unwanted geometry that I want to simplify. I wanted to start by merging the two selected faces below but no matter what I try to delete or merge it just destroys the geometry.  How can I achieve what I want to do (which is combining all of the unwanted geometry, either starting with this merge or some other way?) Mouse Pointer Locator Could cancer be in itself a evolutionary process? Could cancer be in itself a evolutionary process? Maybe in some way could it be a process of variation? Or would this idea be completely without support, if so, why?   I don't mean that each case would lead to evolution, but that within an entire group of organisms, it could lead to case of of individuals developing ways to resist what caused the cancer, maybe in cases of individuals beating the cancer or in cases of successive generations of off spring from individuals with cancer?   Could it be possible that in rare cases it could lead to the development of new organs or specialized cells? I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, running the latest CM10.1.

The hydrogen protons undergo quantum tunnelling in the the sun to fuse into helium, but are only able to do so as they are under immense heat and pressure and the protons and electrons get separated. But our digestive system also makes use of quantum tunnelling to quicken the digestive process, but how do the enzymes free up the electrons when our body temperature is so low? There are a lot of legendaries available in ORAS, however a lot of them will only show up/be available if certain prerequisites are met.  I know Groudon/Kyogre are available through the Story, and      Rayquaza &amp; Deoxys   through the postgame Delta episode, but what about the other available legendaries? What do I need to do to catch them? How does a graduate program's admissions committee operate? How does a typical graduate program's admissions committee operate? (In the US --- I understand that in Europe admissions are often structured differently.)  My mental model at the moment is several professors sitting in a conference room with a stack of printed applications and a few piles: accept, maybe, and reject. Three or so professors will read an application and then make a decision. If the volume of applications is large enough, multiple meetings might be required. This is purely my imagination --- I don't know how accurate this model is.  Of course, I'm sure that how admissions are handled depends greatly on the school, program, and department. I'm interested in a few data points to get a rough idea of what the average is.  A few more specific related questions:   How much time does a typical committee spend on each application? I suspect there's a distribution. Obviously unqualified applicants will probably have their applications tossed into the reject pile pretty quickly. Qualified applicants' applications might receive more attention. Do admissions committees look online for more information about an applicant? I've read some professors (in CS --- not my field) will look at a student's research/project website, but I have no idea how common this is.

Using proof by contradiction vs proof of the contrapositive What is the difference between a "proof by contradiction" and "proving the contrapositive"? Intuitive, it feels like doing the exact same thing. And when I compare an exercise, one person proves by contradiction, and the other proves the contrapositive, the proofs look almost exactly the same.  For example, say I want to prove: $P \implies Q$ When I want to prove by contradiction, I would say assume this is not true. Assume $Q$ is not true, and $P$ is true. Blabla, but this implies $P$ is not true, which is a contradiction.  When I want to prove the contrapositive, I say. Assume $Q$ is not true. Blabla, this implies $P$ is not true.  The only difference in the proof is that I assume $P$ is true in the beginning, when I want to prove by contradiction. But this feels almost redundant, as in the end I always get that this is not true. The only other way that I could get a contradiction is by proving that $Q$ is true. But this would be the exact same things as a direct proof.   Can somebody enlighten me a little bit here ? For example: Are there proofs that can be proven by contradiction but not proven by proving the contrapositve? Is copper piping required within a certain distance from a water heater? I have read that National Code requires you to use copper for 18 inches from your water heater.  How can I do this when everything existing is PEX?   I need to replace my existing low boy water heater next to my kitchen sink.  It was installed by the builder ten years ago. All the pipe in the house is PEX.  The existing water heater is connected using PEX as well.    The supply line comes directly thru the wall to the HW Heater. There is no space to run 18 inches of copper! The heater is under the kitchen counter, and the countertop is directly over it. Only about an inch clearance. (complex measures) $d\nu=d\lambda +f\,dm \Rightarrow d|\nu|=d|\lambda| +|f|\,dm$ and $f\in L^1(\nu)\Rightarrow f\in L^1(|\nu|)$ Two simple exercises on complex measures I don't know how to solve, from Folland's Real Analysis. I find it difficult to manipulate the definitions in computations. For context, if $\nu$ is a complex measure on $(X,\mathcal{M})$ then $|\nu|$ is defined as $d|\nu|=|g|\,d\mu$ where positive measure $\mu$ and $g\in L^1(\mu)$ are such that $\nu \ll \mu$ and $\nu = g\,d\mu$ (and in the textbook it's shown that this definition does not depend on the choice of $\mu$).     1) Let $\nu$ be a reguar complex Borel measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$, $m$ denote   Lebesgue measure, and   let $d\nu = d\lambda + f\,dm$ be its Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym   representation. Then ("it is easily verified")   $d|\nu|=d|\lambda|+|f|\,dm$.      2) If $f\in L^1(\nu)$ then $f\in L^1(|\nu|)$. I was able to prove the   reverse implication, but not this one.   The definition of $|\nu|$ in the case of real signed measures (as $|\nu|=\nu^+ + \nu^-$) makes sense to me but I can't see intuitively into the definion of $|\nu|$ for complex measures as given in the textbook.

If not no way to this by validation-rules, then what is the best way to do this? Prove that $(x+y+z)^2(yz+zx+xy)^2 \leq 3(y^2+yz+z^2)(z^2+zx+x^2)(x^2+xy+y^2)$ This is Problem 6 of the 2007 Indian National Math Olympiad (INMO).  If $x, y, z$ are positive real numbers, prove that $(x+y+z)^2(yz+zx+xy)^2 \leq 3(y^2+yz+z^2)(z^2+zx+x^2)(x^2+xy+y^2).$  My best idea was to expand this and simplify. Although that doesn't look very feasible. Another idea is to see that $x^2+y^2+xy \geq x^2+y^2$. Then we just have to show that $(x+y+z)^2(yz+zx+xy)^2 \leq 3(x^2+y^2)(x^2+z^2)(y^2+z^2)$ if that is even true. Where, precisely, does feedback on Community ♦ generated flags go to die? For the most part, I treat "Community" like any other user when handling system raised flags. If they are useful, I mark them as such. If they are noise, I dismiss them as such. The Community user has a static flag weight, so our reaction to them is more or less feedback for developers.  Is this feedback from moderators network wide used in any way to help improve the accuracy of system raised flags? Or, would clicking either button suffice?  I'm asking because our reasoning behind declining a flag is now more precise. Does dismissing some as noise help improve the criteria that ultimately generates the flag?  Edit  Yes, thank you Skype, I realize that  asked a similar question .
