It could sound like Samson is hardworking because of the 'not',  but it can also sound like Samson isn't hardworking because of the 'like'. So is Samson hardworking or not? Thank you! :)
I am confused about the usage of the words like and unlike in sentences. Like and unlike make me confused because I see them being used everywhere almost interchangeably, and to make matters worse I even saw commas making difference in meaning.  Which of the following sentences is most correct, and least ambiguous?      Unlike Xbox, Playstation can't play Halo.     Playstation can't play Halo unlike Xbox can.     Playstation can't play Halo, unlike Xbox can.     Like Xbox, Playstation can't play Halo.     Playstation can't play Halo like Xbox can.     Playstation can't play Halo, like Xbox can.     Playstation can't play Halo unlike Xbox.     Playstation can't play Halo, unlike Xbox.     Playstation can't play Halo like Xbox.     Playstation can't play Halo, like Xbox.    In case you don't know what I actually wanted to say in those sentences: I'm trying to say that Playstation can't run the Halo video game and Xbox can run that game. I probably should have tried sentences with no brands but I can't imagine any meaningful sentences at this moment which contains like/unlike.
Selecting faces on object from UV editor window I can't see this as an option so is there a way to select faces or islands and have them show up as selected faces on the object in 3D view.  In programs such as maya it is possible to work from either view and makes selection and mapping a little more user friendly.  I suspect it isn't possible in Blender but welcome your feed back.  Edited as flag as already answered, although the question was not asked in the other post in a way that showed in my search.  I was looking for face and island selection to show in both views. The other asked about unselected vertices this obviously did not appear in the results.

Can't get my model out of wireframe mode I'm new to Blender and this site, so I apologize in advance if I'm not following any of the proper etiquette.  I'm no artist, but I'm trying to learn Blender so that I have some programmer art for me to work around in Unity.    I followed a tutorial for making a basic human model, I rigged it with rigify, and now I'm starting to export it following yet another tutorial.  The thing is, when I was trying to rig the model, I couldn't get the model to go transparent so that I could see the bones inside the model.  Eventually, I managed to get it into wireframe mode, but I can't get it back into solid mode.    It's probably just a display thing and not a property of the model itself, but I want to be sure.  I'm looking at the display options under the "Figure" pane in Blender, and none of the Display check boxes are checked, including the one that says "Wire".  I don't want to import a plain wireframe model into Unity, and even if that doesn't happen, this is functionality of Blender that I should really know anyway, so I'd appreciate any help that anyone has to offer.  If necessary, I can upload the .blend file, but I'm not sure what site people would prefer that I upload it to.

Please help  Thanks!   this is the corrected version of an identical question asked by me. I am sorry for the inconvenience caused was closed as "Not constructive" a little while ago by CasperOne. I'm not here to argue about the closure; in fact, I'm forced to agree that, as it stands, the question is explicitly a polling question and eligible to be closed for that reason.  I'd like to see it preserved, however; it's got a fair bit of useful in-depth information for ObjC/Cocoa developers on the "singleton" topic.* It's also (possibly more importantly) a great duplicate target -- have a look at the list of linked questions. I want to try to stave off deletion, and hopefully get it reopened.** (I did vote for reopening, but it expired.)  My thought is to edit the question itself into a "constructive" form, but after spending some time pondering how to do so, I'm not crazy about any of the ideas that I've come up with. Essentially they all involve reworking the question to fit the answers:   Rewrite the question so that the accepted answer fits exactly. "I've got this singleton implementation, but I really want the creation to happen earlier in my app's execution. How can I make that happen?" This is artificial and (in my opinion) doesn't make a particularly good question. Make the question still general, but more concrete and focused on the implementation give in the body. "What are the pitfalls associated with this singleton creation procedure? Are there other features that my singleton should have?" This is still skirting the border of discussion->NC, and none of the answers really respond to this exactly. Remove the implementation from the question and just ask for the "best" implementation. This obviously requires coming up with stringent criteria for "best", and, while it would preserve the relationship between the Q and A's best, might not even move it out of NC territory.   I'm looking for suggestions of ways to re-write this so that it can stick around. Alternatively, if you think I should just be advocating for a historical lock, say so.   If you think my basic premise is faulty and don't think the question should be preserved at all, I respectfully request that you just downvote me instead of answering -- I'd prefer not to turn this into an argument about the merits of the question, and I definitely don't want it to become a(nother) "deletionist"/"inclusionist" skirmish (and I am not infrequently ).    *Quite a bit of it unfortunately in comments.  **Historical locking would also be an acceptable solution to me, but it doesn't seem to fit the "controversial" criterion. Triple integral limits over pyramid 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?

How to implement a single instance Java application? I am developing my first 2D game in Unity and I have come across what seems an important question.  How do I handle data between scenes?  There seems to be different answers to this:   Someone mention using , while other people told me this should be used to store other things like screen brightness and so on. Someone told me that the best way was to make sure to write everything into a savegame everytime that I changed scenes, and to make sure that when the new scene loads, get the info from the savegame again. This seemed to me wasteful in performance. Was I wrong? The other solution, which is the one I have implemented so far is to have a global game object that isn't destroyed between scenes, handling all the data between scenes. So when the game starts, I load a Start Scene where this object is loaded. After this ends, it loads the first real game scene, usually a main menu.   This is my implementation:  using UnityEngine; using UnityEngine.UI; using System.Collections;  public class GameController : MonoBehaviour {      // Make global     public static GameController Instance {         get;         set;     }      void Awake () {         DontDestroyOnLoad (transform.gameObject);         Instance = this;     }      void Start() {         //Load first game scene (probably main menu)         Application.LoadLevel(2);     }      // Data persisted between scenes     public int exp = 0;     public int armor = 0;     public int weapon = 0;     //... }   This object can be handled on my other classes like this:  private GameController gameController = GameController.Instance;   While this has worked so far, it presents me with one big problem: If I want to load directly a scene, let's say for instance the final level of the game, I can't load it directly, since that scene does not contain this global game object.  Am I handling this problem the wrong way? Are there better practices for this kind of challenge? I would love to hear your opinions, thoughts and suggestions on this issue.  Thanks I have to create a report on some student completions. The students each belong to one client. Here are the tables (simplified for this question).  CREATE TABLE  `clients` (   `clientId` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,   `clientName` varchar(100) NOT NULL default '',   `courseNames` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '' )   The courseNames field holds a comma-delimited string of course names, eg "AB01,AB02,AB03"  CREATE TABLE  `clientenrols` (   `clientEnrolId` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,   `studentId` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',   `courseId` tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0' )   The courseId field here is the index of the course name in the clients.courseNames field. So, if the client's courseNames are "AB01,AB02,AB03", and the courseId of the enrolment is 2, then the student is in AB03.  Is there a way that I can do a single select on these tables that includes the course name? Keep in mind that there will be students from different clients (and hence have different course names, not all of which are sequential,eg: "NW01,NW03")  Basically, if I could split that field and return a single element from the resulting array, that would be what I'm looking for. Here's what I mean in magical pseudocode:  SELECT e.`studentId`, SPLIT(",", c.`courseNames`)[e.`courseId`] FROM ...
