My phone was snatched. Its Activation Lock was turned off and it was not signed in on iCloud. However, I still see my phone as listed among the devices in iCloud.   Since the iPhone is still in my iCloud's device list, will the next user still be able to use my phone? Or would it be possible for them to add my phone to their iCloud?
Recently, my iPhone 5 was stolen, and while I have a new iPhone 6, I received a message from a number of someone claiming to be in possession of the device, with a new number.   All images, contacts, Outlook mail, you name it, are still on the device.  While I realize it's my fault for not having it connected to iCloud to wipe manually, is there anything I can do to have this sensitive information wiped from the device?
Magic 8 Ball Problem This problem is probably simple enough to have an analogous problem, I just don't know the name so I'm going to describe it and hopefully somebody can point me in the right direction.  The problem is this: estimating the number of sides of a .   Let's say you perform the following process:   Shake the "Magic 8 Ball" and mark down the result If the result has not previously been seen, add it to the set of possible results and label the trial "N" (for "new") If the result has been previously seen, label the trial "O" (for "old") Repeat all steps   I imagine the following kind of sequence occurring: NNNNONNOONOONOOONOOOONONNOONOOONNOONOOOOOONOOONOOOOOOONOOOOOOOONOOOOOOOO...  Now imagine we don't know there are twenty sides to a Magic 8 Ball. Or imagine that you have a Magic 8 Ball with 1000 sides. As the number of "new" trials approaches the actual number of sides, we'll get increasingly more "old" trials showing up in the mix. Once we've seen all of the possible results, we'll always get "old" results. But we're never 100% sure we've seen every single possible result.  So here are the questions I'm interested in:   As we proceed with trials, can we estimate the total number of "sides" of the Magic 8 ball based on the number of "new" and "old" trials up to this point? Can we calculate a probability that our current estimate is correct, or a probability that some bounded estimate is correct? Embedded Prolog Interpreter/Compiler for Java When should end punctuation go inside quotes? I have been/am being taught that end punctuation should always go inside quotes. For example, you are supposed to write:     Marvin thought it was "awful."   The problem is I do not see how does this make sense. Intuitively, I always wrote:     Marvin thought it was "awful".   as that makes more logical sense — you want a quote to be an exact replication of what somebody else said, so why should you add punctuation inside?  I always thought it made more sense to not touch the quote and add anything after or before if it must be added.  So, why should I put end punctuation inside quotes? What are the benefits of nickel-plated chains? Bicycle chains with higher model numbers (and slightly higher prices) are often nickel-plated or half-nickel-plated. What are the benefits of nickel-plated chains over non-nickel-plated chains?  How durable is the plating--does it wear off, or do its benefits last for the life of the chain? Is there a bijection of the natural numbers which swaps $\frac{1}{n}$-summable subsets with $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$-summable subsets? Let me start with a precise statement of the question.  For a subset $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ and a series of positive real numbers $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n$, I'll use the notation $\sum_A a_n$ as a shorthand for $\sum_{n\in A} a_n$.  Is there a bijection $f:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ with the property that for every $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, $\sum_A \frac{1}{n}$ converges iff $\sum_{f(A)} \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}$ converges?  Background: Fix a series of positive terms $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n$.  Given a subset $A\subseteq \mathbb{N}$, call it $a_n$-small if $\sum_A a_n$ converges.  The following proposition is easy to prove:  Proposition:  The set $\{A\subseteq \mathbb{N}: A\text{ is } a_n\text{-small}\}\cup \{\mathbb{N}\}$ is a topology of closed sets on $\mathbb{N}$.  I will use the notation $(\mathbb{N},a_n)$ to refer to this topology.  Then one can ask how topological properties of $(\mathbb{N},a_n)$ are related to series properties of $\sum a_n$.  For example, I can show:  Proposition:  The following are equivalent.  $\sum a_n$ converges.  $(\mathbb{N},a_n)$ is discrete.  $(\mathbb{N},a_n)$ is disconnected.  $(\mathbb{N},a_n)$ is Hausdorff    And there are other nice things.  For example, $(\mathbb{N},a_n)$ is compact iff $(\mathbb{N},a_n)$ is cofinite iff $\liminf a_n &gt; 0$. With this language, my question can be reformulated as...  Are $\left(\mathbb{N}, \frac{1}{n}\right)$ and $\left(\mathbb{N}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\right)$ homeomorphic?  I have made very little progress on this.  Of course, the identity function $i:(\mathbb{N}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{n}})\rightarrow (\mathbb{N}, \frac{1}{n})$ is a continuous bijection, but the inverse map is not continuous.  Also, if there is such a bijection, there there is such a bijection with agrees with $i$ on any preassigned finite set. Edit  I thought I add in a slightly suprising (to me, at least) example when things work out to be homeomorphic. Begin with a convergent series $\sum c_n$. and divergent series $\sum a_n$ with $\lim a_n = 0$.  Create a new series $b_n$ using all the terms of $c_n$ and $a_n$ (in whatever order you wish).  Then $(\mathbb{N}, a_n)$ and $(\mathbb{N}, b_n)$ are homeomorphic.  The idea is that since $\lim a_n = 0$, there is a convergent infinite subseries $\sum_A a_n$.  Then we use a bijection which with $A$ and $A\cup \{\text{indices of }c_n\}$ to &quot;squeeze&quot; the $c_n$ in without changing the topology.  Of course, I am glossing over many details, but I can include them if desired. "I", "me" and "myself" Possible Duplicate:           What is correct?

"Open in Terminal" in Ubuntu 18.04 This option seems to have gone away after upgrading from Ubuntu 16.04. I tried installing nautilus-open-terminal but it is unable to locate the package for 18.04.

Why doesn't \makeatletter work inside \newcommand? After hours of banging my brain against my skull, I narrowed down an issue I'm having to the fact that \makeatletter doesn't work inside \newcommand. Commands that I call after \makeatletter are registered as undefined, as if \makeatletter didn't do anything.  Why is this the case?  In the example below, I define two commands. Calling one of them from the document body causes the undefined error, while the other doesn't.  \documentclass[11pt]{book} \usepackage{kvsetkeys}  \newcommand{\commandThatFails}{     \makeatletter \comma@parse{}{} \makeatother }  \makeatletter     \newcommand{\commandThatWorks}{         \comma@parse{}{}     } \makeatother  \begin{document}  Hi there.  \commandThatFails \commandThatWorks  \end{document} Are plants creatures or objects? This has occurred to me due to conflict between Fabricate and Blight. Fabricate says it can not target creatures and lists trees as example targets. Blight on the other hand can only target creatures and lists mundane normal plants as example targets.     Which of these conflicting spell descriptions is correct?    Note: It also occurred to me that plants might also be whichever one is convenient, unlikely but possible.
