I'm interested in having two users on my MacBook, but restrict some apps from being used by one of them. Is there a way to block apps from being used by another user of the same Mac? Or maybe whitelist some apps that can be used and restrict all others? (Which would have the same end result.)  I'm a remote worker and I don't have strict hours, it's incredibly easy to get distracted while working. Procrastination is a real issue, and I would like to create one user that could only access work-related apps.  I imagine I can sort of improvise a solution to this using Screen Time restrictions on my main user, but that's a bit too finicky. The ideal solution would be for me to have a Work user and be really strict about which apps this user can and can't access.  Is this possible? If so, how?  I'm also open to using any kind of 3rd-party software that can help me achieve something close to this.
Is there a way to block a list of specific apps on macOS?  I have looked up solutions such as Cisdem, but there are some holes in the way it works that I don't like.   Unless you also block Activity Monitor, Terminal, and System Preferences, you can simply quit the Cisdem process or create a new user to get around it. You have to block Activity Monitor, Terminal, and System Preferences to make it work well.   I want to block an app from running or even being installed on my Mac. The app can be installed via the App Store and the web. Not sure how to go about this. Enabling Parental Controls won't work as Administrator privileges are needed.   The specific app I want to block is Apple Configurator.  Any ideas?
[Probability]need help to understand the following expression I would like to treat a user as a non-gender noun and refer to it with the gender-neutral pronoun, it. E.g.,     The user defines two variables, x and y. It then multiplies each variable by a prime number.    However, on  I found this:      The word "it", however, has an extremely impersonal connotation, even offensive, in common usage and is rarely used in English to refer to an unspecified human being or person of unknown gender. This is because the word "it" connotes that the person being specified is inferior to a person or is an object.   Is to appropriate to refer to a person of unknown sex as it?  Should I rephrase my sentence as follows:     The user defines two variables, x and y. The user then multiplies each variable by a prime number. I'm trying to remember a film I saw years ago (1980's?).  The only part I clearly remember is a man and girl being bricked up alive (in a tower?) and escaping by turning his (magically large) coat or cloak into a rudimentary hang glider.  The film had a medieval sword/sorcery setting. Hello,  I'm getting this error every time when I boot my computer. My Ubuntu installation is fresh and I was got a few error on last step while install Ubuntu (because i have problem with my CDROM driver). Anyway, installation is continued .

I don't know what's wrong with my installation.  Are there any way, check my installation (packages, files etc..) . What overpowered combinations would be available if I allow a bonus action to be used in place of a standard action? It has come up in game a couple of times that a player might want to cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 bonus action using their "main" action (if they have another bonus action they also want to take on that turn, such as giving bardic inspiration, or controlling a Bigby's hand, etc.)  On the face of it, it seems obvious that something (a bonus action) that is usually much faster than a full action could be done as your full action.  Although the question comes up most often with respect to spellcasting, if I house rule this, I would rule that any bonus action can be taken as a regular action instead; however, I would not allow the same type of bonus action to be taken twice (so no giving bardic inspiration to two allies on the same turn, for instance).   Are there any abusive or overpowered combinations I should be wary of if I were to allow a character to take 2 bonus actions instead of one regular action and one bonus action on a turn?   The issue of casting two bonus-action spells would not come up because the rule against casting 2 spells on your turn unless one of them is a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action would still be in effect:  PHB p. 203 (under Bonus Action casting time)     You can't cast another spell during the same turn, except for a cantrip with a casting time of 1 action.   I know it's hard to prove/justify a negative answer to a question like this, but I'd be happy to get answers that say you don't think there would be any issues if you describe how you came to that conclusion. Making separate Python installation that can call ArcPy? I see a lot of Q&amp;As asking how you can create a separate Python installation (e.g. the Anaconda or Python XY distribution) that can use arcpy, while not 'breaking' the original ArcGIS python installation.  I had this same problem, and I think I have found a 'universal' solution. So far we have done this on about 8 computers at work and it all works fine.   How to install a separate Python distribution that can use ArcGIS? Why is the sum of two random variables a convolution? For long time I did not understand why the "sum" of two random variables is , whereas a mixture density function sum of $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ is $p\,f(x)+(1-p)g(x)$; the arithmetic sum and not their convolution. The exact phrase "the sum of two random variables" appears in google 146,000 times, and is elliptical as follows. If one considers an RV to yield a single value, then that single value can be added to another RV single value, which has nothing to do with convolution, at least not directly, all that is is a sum of two numbers. An RV outcome in statistics is however a collection of values and thus a more exact phrase would be something like "the set of coordinated sums of pairs of associated individual values from two RV's is their discrete convolution"...and can be approximated by the convolution of the density functions corresponding to those RV's. Even simpler language: 2 RV's of $n$-samples are in effect two n-dimensional vectors that add as their vector sum.           Please show the details of how the sum of two random variables are a convolution and a sum. Lately it's happening to me this:  After completing one or more "First Posts" reviews, I go back to the Review Section main page:   And the post counter shows that there are still posts to review. I click the link to review them, but there is nothing.  Refreshing the page doesn't solve the issue: it shows the wrong number again. MacBook Pro: How to disable discrete GPU permanently from EFI? How to boot WUBI installed Ubuntu within Windows 8? I have Windows 8 Release Customer Preview on my laptop. I tried to install Ubuntu on it with Ubuntu Windows installer (I have always used this to install, although that was on Windows 7), it installs and asks to reboot, then immediately Windows 8 boots up.  I do not have the option to choose what OS to boot. How can I boot to Ubuntu? VM is not exactly what I would like to use, but it is an option, however a last resort. Any help? By Cauchy's theorem, if a prime number $p$ divides the order of a group $G$, then there is an element $g$ in $G$ whose order is $p$. In addition, if $|G|$ admits a prime decomposition with a factor $p^k$, then Sylow's theorem tells us that a subgroup of order $p^k$ must exist.   My question is the following. If $|G|$ admits a prime decomposition with a factor $p^k$, does this imply that an element of order $p^k$ must exist in $G$?   Update: As explained in Mindlack's answer (among others), the implication does not hold and simple counterexamples exist. In the comments, Mindlack discusses special cases where such an element exists. In Java when one interface extends another, why would one redeclare a method in a subinterface? I've been looking at the JMS API from J2EE and found a strange behavior where certain methods that are declared in an interface (e.g., createQueue in Session) are declared again in the subinterfaces such as QueueSession, and with identical documentation.  Since an subinterface "inherits" all the method declarations of the interface it inherits, and since the JavaDoc tool has no problem sorting out the JavaDocs of the subinterface and creating an "inherited operations" list, I can't figure out what this achieves.  The only think of is that initially the call was in Session, and then moved to QueueSession when the specific subclass was created, though then I would have expected to see something in the documentation of the upperclass. But this is just conjecture.  So the question is: Is there a convincing reason to redeclare a method in a subinterface? Change desktop background to a solid color (e.g. pitch black) in GNOME 3 I just installed Ubuntu 16.04 with GNOME and I would like to set the background color to black. If I right click in the background I can select a wallpaper or a photo or a color. But there are only a few colors available. How can I open a palette and select the #000000 color ?

Now, I consider (0,1). I want to prove by contradiction that $(0,1)$ is not countable.  First, I assume the contrary that there exists a bijection $f$, and I can find an element in $S$, but not in the range of $f$. But I can't find such element. How can you construct such $f$?
