Why remove the vegetables from vegetable stock? Most meat stock is based on boiling bones, so it's not hard to imagine why you'd want to remove the bones before using the stock. Vegetable stock, on the other hand, is broadly similar to the mirepoix that's used as the basis for a huge number of savoury dishes: onion, carrot and celery. When you cook something based on a mirepoix or soffritto, you leave those ingredients in. Yet most stock recipes suggest you filter them off and throw them away. So why not do the same for a stock? I'm specifically thinking of ways to try and add flavour to the broth of vegan noodle dishes, and I'm struggling to see a reason why I wouldn't just grate the onion, carrot and celery and leave it in the stock for texture and better nutritional value.
Are the leftovers from making stock good for anything? Having made stock and strained it, can the meat and vegetables boiled up in the stock be used for anything, or should they go in the bin?
Why does parseInt yield NaN with Array#map? From the :  [1,4,9].map(Math.sqrt)   will yield:  [1,2,3]   Why then does this:  ['1','2','3'].map(parseInt)   yield this:  [1, NaN, NaN]   I have tested in Firefox 3.0.1 and Chrome 0.3 and just as a disclaimer, I know this is not cross-browser functionality (no IE).  I found out that the following will accomplish the desired effect. However, it still doesn’t explain the errant behavior of parseInt.  ['1','2','3'].map(function(i){return +i;}) // returns [1,2,3] Solving the complex equation $\sin(z) = \cos(z)$ To find the complex numbers z satisfying $\sin(z) = \cos(z)$, can I say: $$\sin(z) = \frac{(e^{iz}-e^{-iz})}{2i}=\frac{(e^{iz}+e^{-iz})}{2}$$   and solve for z? So we then reduce this to $$-e^{-iz} = e^{-iz}$$ but this doesn't look right Is it possible to query the content of the Time-based Workflow Queue from an Apex unit test to assess that a specific Workflow Rule has been executed and added a new item to the queue? I didn't see anything alike in the documentation, but wish it could be possible to improve testing and stability overtime.  Thanks After some gorgeous updates I witness this: How do you install an APK file in the Android emulator? How do I add new wallpapers? I have Ubuntu 11.10 installed and want to download and install additional wallpapers on my desktop.   How do I do this? What is an example of perfect collinearity in terms of the design matrix $X$?  I would like an example where $\hat \beta =  (X'X)^{-1}X'Y$ can't be estimated because $(X'X)$ is not invertible. Optional Methods in Java Interface What is the preferred way to find focused control in WinForms app? E.g.  I know that I can browse the chat when I'm not logged on. But what if I am logged on and want to spare the inconvenience of logging off/multiple browsers? Using modified copyrighted music in non-commercial games Background: I'm making a retro style game for both fun, and an unofficial contest.   I have bought a song, song X. However, I then found notation for song X, and all the instruments. So basically, it's a program recreating song X in a sense.  I took the notation, and used another program to make it sound like a chiptune does (just for the fun of it, and it sounds good :P). However, I would like to use this in my game. It's non-commercial, but is this allowed? I would've said yes, because I'm not actually using the original, copyrighted song.  I think the main point is can I:   Use the music with no reference to the author Use the music with a reference, since it's non-profit. Not use the music at all since the melody and rhythm is copyright. Now that I've reached 2k on Stack Overflow, I get access to the "Suggested Edits" review queue.  Although I only have 20 edits per day, the "suggested edit awaiting" icon in the top bar is always there and it bothers me a lot!  My suggestion is to apply one of three solutions:   Remove the suggested edits icon when we reach the maximum (50) edits Remove the Highlight (orange) on the suggested edits Remove the suggested edits part when we click on it   What do you think? Why was my "shopping list" question closed? My question was closed for being a "shopping list question", even though it was very much related to the topic of the site. Why? Connecting two Ethernet PHY without magnetics? In a (tentative) new design I want to connect two 100 Mbit/s Ethernet PHY similar to , separated by few inches on the same PCB, with same ground plane (but different power supplies). I have the choice of one of my PHY, but the other is embedded in an as-yet-unspecified PCIe to Ethernet IC (perhaps Gigabit but used in 100 Mbit/s mode), and it is critical that this PHY thinks there is a bona fide 100 Mbit/s Ethernet connection.  I could use the following         &ndash; Schematic created using   but I would like to achieve the same without the magnetics, in order to save on cost, purchasing headaches, and if at all possible power consumption.  I can imagine an RC network, perhaps as simple as in this , found thanks to a ; or maybe engineered with attenuation and lowpass, but that will not emulate the fact that with real magnetics, when there is a negative pulse on TX1P, there is a positive pulse on TX1M and RX2M. I am uncertain about if that would prevent some PHYs from working normally.  Anything to suggest that one is confident will work for practically any PHY around? How are first digits of $\pi$ found? Since Pi or $\pi$ is an irrational number, its digits do not repeat. And there is no way to actually find out the digits of $\pi$ ($\frac{22}{7}$ is just a rough estimate but it's not accurate). I am talking about accurate digits by either multiplication or division or any other operation on numbers.  Then how are the first digits of $\pi$ found -     3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993...   In fact, more than 100,000 digits of $\pi$ are found (sources - )  How is that possible? If these digits of $\pi$ are found, then it must be possible to compute $\pi$ with some operations. (I am aware of breaking of circle into infinite pieces method but that doesn't give accurate results.)  How are these digits of $\pi$ found accurately? Can it be possible for a square root of some number to be equal to $\pi$? Prime ideal and nilpotent elements How to make crs transformation of a QgsVectorLayer? I need to transform QgsVectorLayers in python from one crs into another crs. By googling I found the following solution (), which works for points only:  crsSrc = QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem(4326)    # WGS 84 crsDest = QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem(32633)  # WGS 84 / UTM zone 33N xform = QgsCoordinateTransform(crsSrc, crsDest) pt1 = xform.transform(QgsPoint(18,5))   Is there a way to make a crs transformation of an entire layer? Is there a destructor for Java? Is there a destructor for Java? I don't seem to be able to find any documentation on this. If there isn't, how can I achieve the same effect?  To make my question more specific, I am writing an application that deals with data and the specification say that there should be a 'reset' button that brings the application back to its original just launched state. However, all data have to be 'live' unless the application is closed or reset button is pressed.  Being usually a C/C++ programmer, I thought this would be trivial to implement. (And hence I planned to implement it last.) I structured my program such that all the 'reset-able' objects would be in the same class so that I can just destroy all 'live' objects when a reset button is pressed.  I was thinking if all I did was just to dereference the data and wait for the garbage collector to collect them, wouldn't there be a memory leak if my user repeatedly entered data and pressed the reset button? I was also thinking since Java is quite mature as a language, there should be a way to prevent this from happening or gracefully tackle this. Temporarily change language for terminal messages/warnings/errors Messages in my terminal are displayed using Russian language by default, which is my native one.  For just a moment I want them to be in English (eg. to paste in forums), then switch back to the default language.  How can I do the switch and switch back using bash? I know the new SPFx will be released for Sharepoint 2016 sometime in the year 2017. But are there any plans to also bring this for Sharepoint 2013?  Are there any possibilities/hacks to add a Sharepoint app created with SPFx in the Sharepoint 2013 app catalog?
