Have a vague memory of an American film, possibly from the 90's about computers that became aware. Might have had some vague horror elements to it and the 'computers' were like shiny cubes.   I thought it was called Chronos but can't find anything under that.
A malevolent computer with AI takes over a woman's house with the intent of hybrid computer/human procreation. The evil computer seals off the house with the woman in it and keeps her prisoner while it prepares. I read the tale sometime in the late 80's or the early 90's. It was one of many of my missing books that got yardsaled by my in-laws when I wasn't looking. It may also have been made into a movie, but I didn't see the film.
What package should I use to typeset units? I know there are a few packages related to typesetting units:   unitsdef units, which can be seen as a "base package" used by unitsdef SIunits siunitx, which is the successor to SIunits maybe others? like cjwunits and hepunits   What is the difference between them? Do they also work inside Math mode? And, more importantly, which one should I use?  Suggestion for people trying to answer this question: show some examples of how to typeset both simple and complex units. For instance, try typesetting these items:   100 Celsius 3 x 10^5 km/s gravitational constant is measured in N m^2/kg^2 10 kHz = 1 s^{-4} sin(x) meters   I think these examples cover most needs when writing scientific texts: simple measurements (value + simple unit), values written in scientific notation, simple fractional units, complex fractional and squared units, units without any value accompanying them, units with arbitrary exponents, and arbitrary math code instead of a simple value. In course of evolution (possibly), mammary glands became vestigial in male mammals, but became fully developed in females. Is there any plausible explanation for this characteristic? Possible to do a MySQL foreign key to one of two possible tables? Call Servlet and invoke Java code from JavaScript along with parameters Err 80 appears when I turn on my Canon EOS 5D Mark II Recently when on holiday in Italy my 5DII stopped powering up. Turn the switch on and - nada. Pulling the battery and popping it back in brings the camera to life, however as soon as the camera goes in to sleep mode, or I turn the power off, the problem returns. Sometimes the camera shows Error 80 at this point:     Err 80      Shooting is not possible due to an error.    Turn the camera off and on again or re-install the battery.   I've seen various posts on the interwebs about pulling the clock battery and leaving the camera for a while - have tried this and also replaced the clock battery to no avail.   Has anyone else had this problem - did the body have to go back to Canon for repair or did you manage to fix it? Is it possible to run Android apps on Ubuntu? And I don't mean inside an emulator, but natively, as you would with any other application installed using the Ubuntu Software Center. Can anyone enter as a student at the Citadel ? Or must one be recommended by Lords or a powerful institution?   Aemon Targaryen was a son of a King, so the Citadel would let him access without questioning. Samwell Tarly was sent by Lord Commander Jon Snow, from the Night's Watch. , a novice of the Citadel. A common born but it is not known how he entered the Citadel. We can notice that he is not a good student, but has not been fired.    I don't remember how the other Maesters were recruited, if they are always relatives of Lords, Kings... Can any lowborn commoner just "knock the door", and enter the Citadel? Parsing input with scanf in C Today, we had a math class, where we had to show, that $a_{100} &gt; 14$ for  $$a_0 = 1;\qquad a_{n+1} = a_n + a_n^{-1}$$  Apart from this task, I asked myself: Is there a closed form for this sequence? Since I didn't find an answer by myself, can somebody tell me, whether such a closed form exists, and if yes what it is? Proof involving absolute value and maximums Given the definition for any real numbers a and b, the max function is   $\max\{a, b\} =  \begin{cases}                                    a \text{ if } a \geq b \\                                    b \text{ if } a &lt; b \\   \end{cases} $  Lemma: for any two real numbers $a\text{ and }b, a \leq \max\{a,b\}$ and $ b \leq \max\{a,b\}$.  Prove that for real numbers, $a, b$, and $x$, if a $\leq x \leq$ b then $|x| \leq \max\{|a|,|b|\}$.  So far, I have  $x \geq 0$ or $x &lt; 0$ by the law of trichotomy  Case 1: $x\geq 0$  $|x| = x$ by the definition of absolute value  and I'm not sure where to go from there. Any hints? What are some good tutorials on writing custom styles (classes) that clearly explain commands used and some of the features that TeX has to offer in the way of styles? When to pull loose teeth My 5 year old is starting to have some teeth become loose. Specifically her lower two front teeth. I just noticed today that one of them is really loose. However, I don't know how loose it should be before pulling it out.  I'm also curious about how to pull them (or should I just let them fall out, which seems bad). My father pulled mine with pliers but I think my wife would freak out if I tried to do that.  So, how loose is lose enough and how to pull them out (technique, tools, etc.). Show that $a \star b=a \cdot b+a+b$ is binary operation for the group $\Bbb{ Q} \setminus \{-1\}$ The group $\left(\Bbb{ Q}\setminus\{-1\},\star\right)$ has as its underlying set the rational numbers different from $-1$ and the operation $\star$ is defined as $a \star b=a \cdot b+a+b$ where multiplication/addition are the usual operations with rational numbers.Show that this is a binary operation.  What I did (Please help verify):  identity element has to be 0 since $a\star 0 = a+0+a(0)$ so for $a\star b=0$ we have  $ab+a+b=0$ $$ab+a=-b \\ a(b+1)=-b \\ a=\frac{-b}{b+1}$$ so $b$ cant be $-1$ since that solution is not in $\Bbb{Q}$. Similar question might have been answered here. Is this operation true for all groups? I think so.  Thanks for the tips and help. Send email with an attachment located in Google Drive I want to send a PDF attachment located on Google Drive from a Sheet.   Code I'm using is:  function sendEmails() {   var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();   var startRow = 2;  // First row of data to process   var numRows = 8;   // Number of rows to process   // Fetch the range of cells A2:B3   var dataRange = sheet.getRange(startRow, 1, numRows, 2)   // Fetch values for each row in the Range.   var file = DriveApp.getFilesByName('ScriptCarPass.pdf')   var data = dataRange.getValues();   for (i in data) {      var row = data[i];     var emailAddress = row[0];  // First column     var message = row[1];       // Second column     var subject = "Sending emails from a Spreadsheet";     MailApp.sendEmail(emailAddress, subject, message, {attachments: file});   } }   Everything works fine except the attachment - i.e. if I run without the attachment it works fine.  I keep getting error Invalid argument: inlineImages  I've also tried with:   attachments: [file.getAs(MimeType.PDF)]   but that gives error that .getAs isn't recognised. I've been doing some practice questions in the textbook for an upcoming predicate calculus lecture and I think I've managed to get A and B (possibly C) correct but I am clueless on how I can manage D and E.   For A I got: ∃x(R(x)∧¬B)  For B I got: ∀x(¬R(x)∧B)  For C I got: ∃x(R(x)∧(x=y))   - Not sure if this is even remotely correct    R(X) : ”X is rich”  X = Y : ”X equals Y”  B : ”Bill Gates”  a) Someone besides Bill Gates is rich.  b) Bill Gates alone is rich.  c) At least two people are rich.  d) Exactly one person is rich.  e) Exactly two persons are rich.  The universe of discourse is the set of all people. Is there a function in python to split a word into a list? I 'had' better get going (Why 'had'??) Finding the number of non-negative integral solutions of $x + y + z = 10$ Is being a Cauchy sequence equivalent to $ \lim_{n\to+\infty}d(x_{n+k},x_n)=0$ for every $k$? Is this statement true?      In a metric spase $(E,d)$, a sequence $(x_n)$ is Cauchy if and only if $  \forall k\in \mathbb{N}, \lim_{n\rightarrow+\infty}d(x_{n+k},x_n)=0$   I proved that $\Rightarrow$ is true,indeed if $(x_n)$ is Cauchy then for all $\varepsilon&gt;0,\exists n_0\in\mathbb{N}, \forall p,q\geq n, d(x_p,x_q)&lt;\varepsilon$ it still right for all $ n\geq n_0$ and $m=n+k&gt;n\geq n_0$   But I don't know if $\Leftarrow$ is true ?
