Generating x,y coordinates for an edge detection of image Setting Access-Control-Allow-Origin in ASP.Net MVC - simplest possible method Will using 'var' affect performance? I have two large external drives with about 2.5 TB of data. About half the storage is images and videos that I want to put on a new NAS drive/device. I don’t want to carry over junk, duplicates and non photo/video files.   I am hoping Lightroom can help scour the mounds of folder structures on these drives and copy images/videos the new drive that I want to catalogue and keep clean as a working platform for all images and video. Once completed I plan to format the original drives and copy the cleaned-up content back to them as part of a backup strategy.  Can Lightroom help? If so, how? If not, is there some other application for Mac OS X that I can use for help with this? One problem I had with my original attempt is I wasn't sure how to move images and rename folders to get the new drive contents to make sense, so I formatted it and am looking to try again.  (steps for this operation would be helpful) Find the limit: $\displaystyle\lim_{x\to \infty} (\sqrt{x^2+x}-\sqrt{x^2-x})$. What is a good asymptotic for $f_n = f_{n-1}+\ln(f_{n-1})$? Towards the end of , it's revealed that Borden accomplishes his Transported Man trick by using his twin brother, Fallon, as a double. It then becomes clear that he has been doing this in his personal life as well as on stage - each brother leads 'half a life', sometimes appearing as Borden and sometimes as Fallon. This is how he completes the illusion: one Borden goes into the first door, the other Borden emerges from the second door a moment later. Angier doesn't know how Borden does the trick, and doesn't believe Borden uses a double despite being told as much by Cutter. He follows what he believes to be a clue in Borden's notebook and travels to Colorado to meet Nikola Tesla, who Angier believes can build a machine that can help him perform the trick. Angier believes that Tesla built a similar machine for Borden. However, the final pages of the notebook reveal that Tesla was merely a red herring, designed to get Angier out of Borden's way for a long time. Tesla, it turns out, had never built such a machine before. At this point, Tesla agrees to build Angier's machine anyway. Instead of building a machine that transports matter, he builds one that duplicates it. Angier uses this machine in his act, but in order to avoid having to deal with multiple clones (the &quot;prestige materials&quot;), one of them must die as part of the act. This all makes sense, so far, but I find it hard to believe that Borden's use of the word 'Tesla' as the key to his cipher is random. It's too coincidental that he sends Angier on a wild goose chase, but Angier returns with a working machine. A film that is otherwise so tightly plotted shouldn't rely on coincidence to move the narrative forward, so there must be something else going on. Is it possible that Borden cloned himself using Tesla's machine? What is the difference between the | and || or operators? I have always used || (two pipes) in OR expressions, both in C# and PHP. Occasionally I see a single pipe used: |. What is the difference between those two usages? Are there any caveats when using one over the other or are they interchangeable? In a few large projects i have been working on lately it seems to become increasingly important to choose one or the other (XML or Annotation). As projects grow, consistency is very important for maintainability.   My questions are: what are the advantages of XML-based configuration over Annotation-based configuration and what are the advantages of Annotation-based configuration over XML-based configuration? I need to cast single figures (1 to 9) to (01 to 09). I can think of a way but its big and ugly and cumbersome. I'm sure there must be some concise way. Any Suggestions British Airways (BA) just changed our flight times, leaving us only 1h15mins for our layover in Heathrow. We arrive from Brussels in terminal 5 in Heathrow at 7:55 and our next flight leaves for Miami in Heathrow terminal 3 at 9:10.  This seems awfully short.   Does anyone know whether this is doable?   The flights are in November, so I'm still hoping that the flights will change back to the original flight times, which would give us an additional hour for the layover, but in case this does not happen, what are the chances that we will make the connecting flight in 1h15mins? What did the public at large know about the assassination attempt on Palpatine and how he survived it? The sum of powers of two and two's complement – is there a deeper meaning behind this? Game State 'Stack'? I was thinking about how to implement game states into my game. The main things I want for it are:   Semi-transparent top states-being able to see through a pause menu to the game behind Something OO-I find this easier to use and understand the theory behind, as well as keeping orgranised and adding more to.    I was planning on using a linked list, and treat it as a stack. This means I could access the state below for the semi-transparency.  Plan: Have the state stack be a linked list of pointers to IGameStates. The top state handles its own update and input commands, and then has a member isTransparent to decide whether the state underneath should be drawn.  Then I could do:  states.push_back(new MainMenuState()); states.push_back(new OptionsMenuState()); states.pop_front();   To represent the player loading, then going to options, and then main menu.  Is this a good idea, or...? Should I look at something else?   Thanks. Looking for a single word for 'blind worship' Is there a single word for 'blind worship' as in worshiping an actor blindly notwithstanding the bad performance? I have a batch file which I use to create an .apk file on my Windows machine. Now I need to be able to create the .apk file in Ubuntu but I don't know how translate my .bat file to a script to be able to run it on Ubuntu.  Below is the batch file which works fine on Windows.  Will you please give me some hints on how I can run it on Ubuntu?  @echo off set PAUSE_ERRORS=0 :user_configuration  :: Path to Flex SDK  set FLEX_SDK=C:\sdk\flex_sdk_4.5.1.21328  :: Path to Android SDK set ANDROID_SDK=C:\sdk\android  :validation if not exist "%FLEX_SDK%\bin" goto flexsdk if not exist "%ANDROID_SDK%\platform-tools" goto androidsdk goto succeed  :validation if not exist "%FLEX_SDK%\bin" goto flexsdk if not exist "%ANDROID_SDK%\platform-tools" goto androidsdk goto succeed  :flexsdk echo. echo ERROR: incorrect path to Flex SDK echo. if %PAUSE_ERRORS%==1 pause exit  :androidsdk echo. echo ERROR: incorrect path to Android SDK in 'bat\SetupSDK.bat' echo.  if %PAUSE_ERRORS%==1 pause exit  :succeed set PATH=%PATH%;%FLEX_SDK%\bin set PATH=%PATH%;%ANDROID_SDK%\platform-tools  :: Android packaging set AND_CERT_NAME="PeymanApp" set AND_CERT_PASS=fd set AND_CERT_FILE=cert\SampleApp.p12 set AND_ICONS=icons/android  set AND_SIGNING_OPTIONS=-storetype pkcs12 -keystore "%AND_CERT_FILE%" -storepass     %AND_CERT_PASS%  :: Application descriptor set APP_XML=application.xml  :: Files to package set APP_DIR=bin set FILE_OR_DIR=-C %APP_DIR% .  :: Your application ID (must match &lt;id&gt; of Application descriptor) set APP_ID=air.com.doitflash.SampleApp  :: Output packages set DIST_PATH=dist set DIST_NAME=PeymanApp  :validation %SystemRoot%\System32\find /C "&lt;id&gt;%APP_ID%&lt;/id&gt;" "%APP_XML%" &gt; NUL if errorlevel 1 goto badid goto end_validation  :badid echo. echo ERROR: Application ID (APP_ID) does NOT match Application descriptor '%APP_XML%'     (id)  echo.  :end_validation  set TARGET= set PLATFORM=android  ::call bat\Packager.bat if "%PLATFORM%"=="android" goto android-config  :android-config set CERT_FILE=%AND_CERT_FILE% set SIGNING_OPTIONS=%AND_SIGNING_OPTIONS% set ICONS=%AND_ICONS% set DIST_EXT=apk set TYPE=apk goto start  :start if not exist "%CERT_FILE%" goto certificate :: Output file set FILE_OR_DIR=%FILE_OR_DIR% -C "%ICONS%" . if not exist "%DIST_PATH%" md "%DIST_PATH%" set OUTPUT=%DIST_PATH%\%DIST_NAME%%TARGET%.%DIST_EXT% :: Package  echo true echo. call adt -package -target %TYPE%%TARGET% %OPTIONS% %SIGNING_OPTIONS% "%OUTPUT%"     "%APP_XML%" %FILE_OR_DIR% -extdir lib/ echo. if errorlevel 1 goto failed goto end  :certificate echo Certificate not found: %CERT_FILE% echo.  if %PAUSE_ERRORS%==1 pause exit  :failed echo APK setup creation FAILED.  if %PAUSE_ERRORS%==1 pause exit  :end Why do Oreo crumbs float to a single glob at the very center in a glass of milk? I had Oreos and milk a while ago and left my half-full cup of milk out on the counter. Afterwards I noticed that the crumbs had surfaced in a circular coin-sized glob, and just now I looked again to see all of the crumbs seem to have compressed into a more dense glob at the very center of the cup.   Why does this happen? What does it mean that GUIkit is being deprecated? A function $f: \mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ satisfies equation $f(x+y)=f(x)f(y)$ for all $x,y\in \mathbb R $ For Christmas my kiddo got the D&amp;D Starter Set and we've been going though it and the full rules we downloaded online. I'm having a hard time figuring out how the example listed in the rules gets to a final value of 14.  The example is a level 1 character with wisdom of 15 and a proficiency in perception.  I understand that you start with  10 (base) + 2 (character level) + 2 (wisdom 15) which gets you to 14 but then how does the "proficiency in perception" help or factor in?   What gets more confusing is on one of the pre-generated character sheets has a level 1 character with wisdom of 10 but a passive perception value of 10. If I follow the math from above shouldn't it be 10 (base) + 2 (char lev 1) + 0 (wisdom 10 = 0 bonus) for a final score of 12?  How to calculate passive perception?
