I have some yeast listed as yeast for pizza. It says not recommended for bread making. Will it work for bread or angel biscuits?
Someone gave me a bunch of envelopes of pizza crust yeast, "specially formulated for pizza crust". The packets also say that no rise time or proofing is needed, and that it's "NOT recommended for bread baking." The ingredients are yeast, enzymes, sorbitan monostearate, l-cysteine, and ascorbic acid. It does provide a recipe for pizza crust, with just mixing and a bit of kneading.   What has actually been done to this yeast to make it work like this? (What are those enzymes?) And is there any way I can use it for other things, or is it really only good for things like pizza crust?
Why is $a^n - b^n$ divisible by $a-b$? Reserved words as names or identifiers Is there any tricky way to use Java reserved words as variable, method, class, interface, package, or enum constant names? Consider a set $A$ of $10$ integers, $A = \{a_1,a_2, \ldots ,a_{10}\}$. Prove that there is at least one subset of $A$ whose sum is divisible by $10$. Was unable to find rationale for separate tags accros SE sites.   Tag function According general definition in information systems, a  (such as an Internet bookmark, digital image, database record, or computer file). This kind of metadata helps describe an item and allows it to be found again by browsing or searching. Tags are generally chosen informally and personally by the item's creator or by its viewer, depending on the system, although they may also be chosen from a controlled vocabulary.  On SE - the same:  is a () word or phrase that describes the topic of the question help you identify  or relevant to you.  tag origin and quality  Where from tags are originated and what are tag quality parametres?  problems and contradictions examples related with SE tags  Humanity is facing information overload.  are created for collecting and sharing personal knowledge on questions or problem solving. But tag's descriptions are not matter of personal knowledge - it's just matter of , i.e. vocabulary/dictionary, or taxonomy/ontology or, speaking in general, human lexic conceptual apparatus / framework. So why time has to be spent on fact's duplicating and sharing?  At the same time We are living at the linked data times. IMHO it's the biggest blunder having same tags with different descriptions in different SE sites unlinked. Tags (and so - descriptions) should be unified.  So I'm calling to unify all tags across SE sites as feature request. Maybe automatic linking to Wikipedia and/or some other decent dictionary would be reasonable.  solution examples  This is not a duplicate of Imaging new hard drive in Windows 7 laptop?

Question about preposition -of- Sentence:      A set of deer antlers lying on a flat stone just inside [of?] one cave reveals more recent visitors.   Should we use preposition -of- in that case?  I have checked Corpus of Contemporary American English and have found examples of both usages:        ...to plant another 20 acres of vines, finish building the inside of   an on-site cave, and work on building a retail tasting room (Fiction)   However, opened and remained blue as the inside of an ice cave, paler   than the shell of a robin's egg (Fiction)   It looked like the wall on the inside of a cave: flat and kind of   scale (Fiction)   ...-To protect the inside of the cave.

Is it more a question of style rather then a grammar? Or it has something with how speaker/writer sees things around and perceives a reality? Does absence of -of- make things sound weird/wrong for native speaker? Thanks. Why isn't the gamma function defined so that $\Gamma(n) = n! $? How are the file metadata stored in Windows? (I'm using Windows XP but I guess it's similar in all the recent versions of Windows.)  When you create for example a new empty text document, you'll find in its properties that it has size of 0 bytes. Zero bytes means no information. No data. But still, the file has some name, it can still carry the dates of last access, modification and creation. It carries the information whether it's hidden file or not, whether it's read-only or not...  So where are all the metadata stored? Possibly two questions in here: Are these sentence constructions logical, and if they are, why are they different?     I swam across the Ocmulgee River.   I swam across the Pacific Ocean.   I swam across the Red Sea.   I swam across Lake Winnipeg.   I can't think of a way of phrasing the lake example while using an article with a proper noun. I thought at first it was because Lake Winnipeg is different; it's generic portion (the "Lake") comes first and the name of that body comes second, but I swam across Falls Lake is the same.   Yet the sentence I swam across the lake sounds right to me. ...Why? Is it appropriate to use a question mark at the end of a compound sentence where the first independent clause is a question but the second is a statement? For example:     Do you want attribution for that quotation, because I'm definitely sharing it and want to know if I should give you credit?   or      Do you want attribution for that quotation, because I'm definitely sharing it and want to know if I should give you credit.   I suppose this could work, but it's a little niche, as the second clause might not always be appropriate for a parenthetical.     Do you want attribution for that quotation (because I'm definitely sharing it and want to know if I should give you credit)? My understanding is that when using a Bayesian approach to estimate parameter values:   The posterior distribution is the combination of the prior distribution and the likelihood distribution. We simulate this by generating a sample from the posterior distribution (e.g., using a Metropolis-Hasting algorithm to generate values, and accept them if they are above a certain threshold of probability to belong to the posterior distribution). Once we have generated this sample, we use it to approximate the posterior distribution, and things like its mean.   But, I feel like I must be misunderstanding something. It sounds like we have a posterior distribution and then sample from it, and then use that sample as an approximation of the posterior distribution. But if we have the posterior distribution to begin with why do we need to sample from it to approximate it? As stated in the question, I am looking for a Noetherian ring over which the Euclidean algorithm is not valid.  I am trying to construct non-trivial examples of Noetherian rings.  Thank you. Testing a UPS by unplugging it from the wall At an Not For Profit/Charity I volunteer for occasionally we were very fortunate to be provided (donated) with a brand new 3Kva APC UPS. This is total overkill for our modest server rack (four mid-range servers and a switch!) but hey, I'll take what I can get!  Pressing the TEST button on the front indicates that yes, the UPS does work. Brilliant. But it only tests it for about 15 seconds.  My question is - will I degrade the UPS by unplugging it from the wall to see how long it will last? My plan is to unplug it, and wait until the battery meter reaches its last LED before plugging it back in, so that I know about how long I will have in the event of a power outage.  Do people do this on a regular basis? I'm guessing no (Lead Acid is very different to Li-Ion batteries)... but what kind of harm would it do if this were to happen (on purpose) every 6 months?

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.
