Can I install or update Mac App Store apps through a command line using terminal? Is there an official way provided by Apple or a workaround so that I can install or update Mac App Store apps through Terminal?
Can Mac App Store installs & upgrades be automated? How can I script installing or upgrading apps from the Mac App Store? I'd prefer command line tools, but AppleScript or some other API would suffice.  Relevant puzzle pieces:   installer: note especially the -store flag which is used to simulate App Store installs for package devs. systemupdate: capable of handling updates to Apple apps, flags -i installs and -a tells it to install all available updates
How do I copy to the clipboard in JavaScript? I'd never heard of anycast until a few seconds ago when I read "".  The wikipedia "" article on it is quite formal and doesn't really evoke a mental picture of how it would be used.  Can someone explain in a few informal sentences what "anycast" is, how you configure it (just in a general sense), and what its benefits are (what does it make easier)? I can't add a book that I've written that's not on Amazon Is there any chance that there will be support to my Careers profile for adding books that aren't available to purchase through Amazon.com? My book was published through Smashing Magazine and it isn't available there. How can I reflect a transparent background? I'd like to make a glossy surface which reflects objects above it, but that also reflects a transparent background in the final render.  So in effect, the final render would contain only the reflections, not the surface itself.  Is this possible please? Rate limit suggested edits We need a hard rate limit on suggested edits, to limit the damage someone can do with blasting the review queue with minor edit suggestions.  Case in point:  peppered the site with a whopping 133 tag-only edit suggestions in 2 hours and 15 minutes. That's one edit every minute on average, but towards the end he was entering a new suggestion every 20 seconds. He only stopped because a  drew enough rejections to have him banned from entering more.  If there was a limit to the number of suggested edits you can enter in a time period we could have stopped this guy earlier. No &lt;2k user needs to edit hundreds of tags across that many questions in 2 hours time.  Considerations   There are cases where a retag drive or tag burninate justifies editing a larger number of posts, but I'd be fine if such tasks were limited to people with 2k+ reputation. A retag or burninate job requires a minimal engagement with the community to know when they are justified anyway. The suggested edit review process, by itself, was clearly not enough to stop this barrage. It cannot be seen as a rate limiting measure, at least not as a sufficiently efficient one.  The vast majority of the edits made in the above example were too minor, leaving spelling, grammar and formatting mistakes in the post untouched. The user was going too fast to pay attention to such details anyway. Yet this user has 98 approved edit suggestions, but all but 6 or 7 I'd have rejected as too minor, so the review process itself is broken.   What should be limited   The number of review votes reviewers have is already limited; I burned through 20 reviews in short order just reviewing the suggestions from just this one user. Certainly the number of unreviewed suggestions should be limited to let reviewers catch up with a user like this. I'd say having 20 outstanding suggested edits pending review is plenty. Suggested edits should be made with some consideration; we don't want minor edits, so if you are suggesting more than 20 in an hour (that's 1 every 3 minutes) you are not improving posts anymore, you are gaming the system to gain reputation. If $x_1 = 3$, $x_{n+1} = \frac{1}{4-x_n}$ for $n \geq 1$, prove the sequence is bounded below by $0$, above by $4$. If $x_1 = 3$, $x_{n+1} = \dfrac{1}{4-x_n}$ for $n \geq 1$, prove the sequence is decreasing and bounded below by $0$, above by $4$.  Want to show: $0 &lt; x_{n+1} &lt; x_n &lt; 4$  I decided to do the bounded part first.    Base Case, $n=1$  $0 &lt; 3 &lt; 4$ [works]  IH  Suppose $0 &lt; x_k &lt; 4$, for some $k\in\mathbb{N}$  IS  Show $0 &lt; x_{k+1} &lt; 4$  We know $x_{k+1} = \dfrac{1}{4-x_k}$  We also know that $0 &lt; x_k &lt; 4$, by IH.  So we have:  $$\dfrac{1}{4} &lt; x_{k+1} &lt; \infty$$  But this doesn't show the boundness. Where have I went wrong? Let's say I have 1m of 2,5mm² copper wire, insulated with H07V-K. The wire carries 40A and environment temperature is 25°C. The wire is suspended in free air. How hot will the wire get? And how can I calculate it for other values?  The use case is a 12V-230V AC converter I want to hook up to my car and determine the minimum wire thickness required. Because it's only used from time to time and not buried in a wall I suspect I can use thinner wires. This is a temporary thing and doesn't need to be up to code.

When using QuickLook to quickly look through multiple images (pressing space and then using the arrow keys to navigate), some images will not get displayed by QuickLook when hitting them up a second time (going back for example).   A GIF does a much better job than me showcasing the issue. So here's me previewing a few random images:    I have tried deleting   ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.QuickLookDaemon.plist ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.QuickLookDaemon/Cache.db ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.QuickLookDaemon32/Cache.db ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.quicklook.ui.helper  and restarting, unfortunately to no avail.  Repairing permissions and restarting the Finder in 32-bit mode, as suggested  by others, don't appear to have any effect on this issue either.  This happens with all kinds of images, no matter their source or format. I've rooted my phone.  Now what?  What do I gain from rooting? This is a common question by those who have just rooted their phones.  What apps, ROMs, benefits, etc. do I get from rooting?  What should I be doing now? Suppose $G$ is a finite group and I know for every $k \leq |G|$ that exactly $n_k$ elements in $G$ have order $k$. Do I know what the group is? Is there a counterexample where two groups $G$ and $H$ have the same number of elements for each order, but $G$ is not isomorphic to $H$? I suspect that there is, but I haven't thought of one. Philosophy is the mother of all science Prologue Running google search:  at the time of this post yields about 114,000 results, and while this Quora post:  puts forth the question to determine the truth of the matter, it does not address the historical, etymological, and philosophical import of the matter. This PhilSE Post:  clearly addresses theory, but does not address the historical aspect. The related question in Researchgate post:  seems to not provide a substantial answer either. Inquiry What is the  context in which the statement 'Philosophy is the mother of all science' or related ones began to recognize as a  the  relationship between philosophy and the advent of modern science under thinkers like ? That is to say, what historical and social consequences were responsible for seeing  somehow superior as a theory to the ? Epilogue The question is intended to determine the metaphilosophical insights of philosophers. For example, if Karl Popper used the phrase or one similar, did he appeal to previous philosophers for insight on that same relationship?

It mostly happens about 10 seconds after booting up and lasts for 10-20 seconds.  It also occasionally happens when the computer is running, but very rarely.  Interestingly, it does not seem to happen when the processor is being used heavily.  The laptop does not have a discrete graphics card.  The fan is clean.  I'm not sure if the laptop is under warranty, but I trust my own skills much more than I trust the manufacturer (or the shipper).  Before I search for a matching fan and replace it, I thought I would see if it is safe to try any lubricants.  Are there any lubricants that are safe to use inside a laptop?  I don't want a fire or anything that will splatter and cause conductivity issues within the circuitry. How can I turn on the Intel HD manually? For some weeks my MacBook 6.2 does not switch to the integrated graphics adapter (Intel HD). This is especially crucial when I work on battery (which happens quite often). I guess the runtime could be enhanced when it would take the HD adapter for display.  I checked that it automatically changes the graphics mode. I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  I recently installed 8GiB RAM (not from Apple). Could this probably related to this issue? Actually I do not want to downgrade or use the expensive Apple RAM.  So, how can I manually turn on the internal graphics adapter? Do scimitars and rapiers count as swords for the magic items in the 5E DMG? Are rapiers and scimitars considered swords for magic items like:   Dancing Sword Defender Dragon Slayer Flame Tongue Frost Brand Giant Slayer Holy Avenger Luck Blade Nine Lives Stealer Sword of Life Stealing Sword of Sharpness (scimitar) Sword of Vengeance Sword of Wounding Vorpal Sword (scimitar)   Or are only shortswords (not Sword of Sharpness or Vorpal Sword), longswords and greatswords swords for these items and therefore available?
