Convergence to function that is not measurable Suppose ($X,\cal M, \mu$) is not complete. Show that there is a sequence {$f_n$} of measurable functions on $X$ that converges pointwise a.e. on $X$ to a function $f$ that is not measurable. Turning a cipher into a hashing function Why are cancer rates low in large animals? Large animals generally have more cells and live longer than smaller animals. For example,  live up to 200 years and weigh up to 100 tonnes, as opposed to humans (living ~ and weigh ~) and  (10–25 g, &lt;1 year in the wild). Hence, whales have an immense number of cells and those cells are subjected to environmental carcinogenic influences (chemicals, UV) for a longer period of time.   Cancer is caused by random mutations and those random mutations are basically stochastic processes. Given their long life span and larger number of cells, shouldn't larger animals have a substantially higher chance to develop cancer? In fact, story goes that bowhead whales in fact only , and less so compared to humans? What do I do when glitched? I was playing Grand Theft Auto Online on Xbox 360, and a player teleported to me.  I shot them, but they placed a campfire on me.  Now, I am constantly being burnt to death. How do I get out? Does mathematics become circular at the bottom? What is at the bottom of mathematics? I am trying to understand what mathematics is really built up of. I thought mathematical logic was the foundation of everything. But from reading a book in mathematical logic, they use "="(equals-sign), functions and relations.  Now is the "=" taken as undefined? I have seen it been defined in terms of the identity relation.  But in order to talk about functions and relations you need set theory.  However,  seems to be a part of mathematical logic.  Does this mean that (naive) set theory comes before sentential and predicate logic? Is (naive)set-theory at the absolute bottom, where we can define relations and functions and the eqality relation. And then comes sentential logic, and then predicate logic?  I am a little confused because when I took an introductory course, we had a little logic before set-theory. But now I see in another book on introduction to proofs that set-theory is in a chapter before logic. So what is at the bottom/start of mathematics, logic or set theory?, or is it circular at the bottom?  Can this be how it is at the bottom?  naive set-theory $\rightarrow$ sentential logic $\rightarrow $ predicate logic $\rightarrow$ axiomatic set-theory(ZFC) $\rightarrow$ mathematics  (But the problem with this explanation is that it seems that some naive-set theory proofs use logic...)  (The arrows are of course not "logical" arrows.)  simple explanation of the problem:  a book on logic uses at the start: functions, relations, sets, ordered pairs, "="  a book on set theory uses at the start: logical deductions like this: "$B \subseteq A$", means every element in B is in A, so if $C \subseteq B, B \subseteq A$, a proof can be "since every element in C is in B, and every element in B is in A, every element of C is in A: $C \subseteq A$". But this is first order logic? ($(c \rightarrow b \wedge b \rightarrow a)\rightarrow (c\rightarrow a)$).  Hence, both started from each other? I am considering attacks on Two-Key Triple-DES Encryption assuming $2^{32}$ known plaintext/ciphertext pairs (that's a mere 32 of ciphertext) by the method devised by Paul C. van Oorschot and Michael J. Wiener:  (in ), or another published method not requiring significantly more DES computations. As a synthetic information for decision makers, I am looking for an independent estimate of how much time this is expected to require, assuming all the RAM ever built by mankind to that day (of April 2012) was put to full use. Note: I'm purposely not asking when the attack could become feasible using all the RAM ever built by mankind, because estimates on the amount of RAM mankind will build, and when, are less falsifiable. Update: I am not considering cost; neither of RAM, power, logic including DES engines (as long as the number of DES operations remains within $2^{90}$). I am willing to assume that the amount of RAM used, and its effective speed, are the only factors to account for in determining the expected duration of the attack. This is similar to the hypothesis made by the authors of the linked paper, that their attack is limited by the amount (or cost) of RAM used, with all other factors of secondary importance. Update: sadly, nobody dared answer the question and the bounty period is over. Thus  is a first order answer to criticize. Movie with humans battling aliens piloting giant animalistic, water-walking robots or sea warships I have memories of watching it a few years ago (I was a kid then) in the early 2000s probably; before 2010 I think. It was a movie with giant robots, and the enemies were aliens piloting what I remember as giant, more animalistic robots. I remember those animalistic ones running on water. The aliens themselves were a little taller than humans but mostly humanoid. I remember what the aliens look like a bit; most of the movie they were clad in some kind of armor, but the scene I mentioned showed one's face, if I remember well, grey skin, vividly green eyes, a beard made of some kind of quills, bald. I have this one scene that stayed crystal clear in my memories. The heroes had captured an injured alien, and other aliens attack to, in the end, just retrieve the injured one, leaving with this one without attacking further this time. I also remember the aliens going through a city in some machine (I'm actually not sure this one was piloted though) and destroying anything it perceived as a threat, from cars to security cameras. My memories are coming from years ago, so I might be wrong in a bunch of things there, but this one scene, I can assure is correct. This might remind a bit of Pacific Rim, but it isn't. (It's watching Pacific Rim that reminded me of this movie.) It doesn't seem to show up on any giant robot movie list on internet, weirdly, so I hope you can help me. And now I'm starting to wonder if there was really robots on the heroes' side. Maybe it was warships (sea ones, not spaceships). As I said it was some time ago and I was young, so bad memories are likely. An example to show that convergence of Cesaro sum to $0$ does not imply the original sequence converges to $0$. I'd like construct a non-negative sequence $\{a_{k}\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ with $a_{0}=0$ such that the Cesaro sum $\frac{1}{n}\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}a_{k}\longrightarrow 0$ but $a_{n}$ does not converge to $0$.   I have a really bad attempt:  Define $a_{0}=a_{1}=0$, and $a_{k}:=\log(\log(k))$ for $k\geq 2$, then $a_{k}\longrightarrow\infty$. But $$\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}a_{k}=\dfrac{\log\Big(\prod_{k=2}^{n-1}\log(k)\Big)}{n}$$ and Wolframalpha told me that this series converges to $0$ as $n\longrightarrow\infty$.  However, I have no idea about how to show this convergence to $0$. Also, I wish to have a sequence as simple as possible, since at some stage I need too how $f(k):=a_{k}$ is positive semi-definite.   Is there any simpler example?   Thank you! Automorphism group of direct product of groups I was working on a problem in group theory, which asks about the automorphism group of a direct product of groups.  Okay, so I know that if $G,H$ are two groups whose orders are relatively prime, then $\operatorname{Aut}(G\times H)\cong\operatorname{Aut}(G)\times \operatorname{Aut}(H)$.  I also know that if $G,H$ are abelian and simple and isomorphic, then $\operatorname{Aut}(G\times H)\cong \operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbf{Z}_p)$ where $p$ is the order of $G$.  What I don't know is the following: what if $G,H$ are simple, yet not abelian? Let us for now focus on a more restricted case where $G\cong H$, in particular, $G=H$. What can we say about the group $\operatorname{Aut}(G\times H)$? (I heard something about this group being related to what is called "wreath product", which I do not know...)  Thanks bunch in advance! Too many unprocessed floats I'm trying to a large number of figures.

Similar cases are solved on a per-usage basis on 's  tag. I replaced a non-protected receptacle with a GFCI type and now my circuit tester trips the GFCI as soon as it is plugged in.  The receptacle tested fine before replacement, ground, neutral, hot, etc.  I've double checked the hot/neutral/ground connections.  I've also tried it with the downstream load disconnected.   The GFCI trips the moment I plug in my circuit tester (before pushing the test button).  Otherwise things check out OK.  I can plug in a power tool without it tripping.  Also, the integrated test/reset button work correctly.   I've read that the integrated test button is the only one that truly matters. Is this correct or should I be concerned? I'm sure a home inspector will red flag this if their tester has the same result.  Update  My tester is by "Commercial Electric".  The tester is one of the palm sized three prong type with three leds to indicate the condition of the circuit and a button on top to test GFCI. It's new from the local box store. allow you to create code which defines the methods of classes that implement it. You cannot however add any code to those methods.    allow you to do the same thing, along with adding code to the method.   Now if you can achieve the same goal with abstract classes, why do we even need the concept of interfaces?   I've been told that it has to do with OO theory from C++ to Java, which is what PHP's OO stuff is based on. Is the concept useful in Java but not in PHP? Is it just a way to keep from having placeholders littered in the abstract class? Am I missing something? How to play MP3 files using Rhythmbox?

When I'm viewing a user profile, it's more often than not to gauge this user within the community. How long they have been a member, how active they have been, when was their last activity and of course, what content are they contributing. This is accentuated when the user in question is a relatively new user. I would want to know this in order to make my response or comment more informative and to not be too harsh on inexperienced users.  One good measure I use to identify a new user is their join date. I would like to request that the "member for" field be added to the profile page for users on the mobile application just as it is when viewing the desktop version.  The "last seen" field would also be useful. It's useful to me on the desktop version to know more or less when/if to expect a response from a user after leaving them a comment/answer. It would useful on the mobile version for the same reasons.    I just realized that this information is available on the mobile version of the webiste. If it was decided that this information is important enough to also appear on the mobile web version, why not include it on the native mobile applications? In an older question from June 2011, , apparently revived by the system, a user is asking about the origin of the rotation of celestial bodies.  The  (with 17 votes) states the following:     When things collapse under their own gravity in space (i.e. clouds of gas and dust), any small amount of asymmetry in the collapse will be enough start it spinning.   And then it goes on saying:     Even if it spins by a tiny amount, as it collapses, angular momentum     conservation will mean it spins more and more quickly.   Is all this really correct?  I could try to ask in a comment to the answer. I actually did. But the author is no longer registered.  Hence I am asking it as a question.  But that is not the end of the story. As I was about to ask my question, I looked for other relevant questions, and there are some. I did not make an exaustive survey, but I did not find one that had satisfactory answers:    (december 2011) has just one accepted answer (0 votes) stating essentially that the solar system has angular momentum because it started from a cloud that had angular momentum. No comment.  (july 2011) is questionning about everything from galaxies to electrons. The answers are of a much higher quality, but while they seem to justify the possiblility of spin and angular momentum (and its conservation), there are not clear on how it appears, at least for celestial bodies.  (june 2013): That was my own very naive first question on this site. It is related but does not directly address spin.   One answer I found is that momentum appear from bodies in relative motion past each other. Nice, but not really an answer: where did they get their relative speed to begin with. Unfortunately the answer is: from the angular momentum of larger structures they belong to (well, it can be more comples). So this is just chicken and egg explanation. But how did it get started?  Note that my question is not a duplicate, since it is primarily whether the above statements are correct, which is not considered in these other questions.  Furthermore, these questions are fairly old, and given that none had received answers that seem to answer the question of the origine of existence of celestial angular momentum (not in a way I can understand anyway), it may be appropriate to attempt restarting the process, with the above discussion to motivate that an answer should explain the physical mechanism that started the existence of spin of celestial bodies. When do we not put a comma before "because"? In what situation do you put a comma before "because"?   And, when do you not put a comma before "because"?   I've always assumed that you put a comma, because the clause introduced by "because" will always be independent, because it cannot stand on its own, because it wouldn't make sense on its own.   Is this the case? Could you think of an example where it doesn't take a comma? Bold code in a question Frequently when I ask a question I have to include quite a bit of code for reference purposes.    It would be nice to be able to bold the important lines in the code.  For example this code:  &lt;DataTrigger Value="True"&gt;     &lt;DataTrigger.Binding&gt;         &lt;MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource DisableWorkItemConverter}"&gt;             &lt;Binding ElementName="MainForm" Path="PickedWorkItemID"/&gt;             &lt;Binding Path="Id"/&gt;         &lt;/MultiBinding&gt;     &lt;/DataTrigger.Binding&gt;     &lt;Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="False"/&gt;     &lt;Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="False"/&gt; &lt;/DataTrigger&gt;   Is not way long, but the important part (as seen in ) is the second to last line.  However, if I try to bold it, it ends up looking like this:  &lt;DataTrigger Value="True"&gt;     &lt;DataTrigger.Binding&gt;         &lt;MultiBinding Converter="{StaticResource DisableWorkItemConverter}"&gt;             &lt;Binding ElementName="MainForm" Path="PickedWorkItemID"/&gt;             &lt;Binding Path="Id"/&gt;         &lt;/MultiBinding&gt;     &lt;/DataTrigger.Binding&gt;     &lt;Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="False"/&gt;     **&lt;Setter Property="IsSelected" Value="False"/&gt;** &lt;/DataTrigger&gt;   Not what I was going for.  It would be nice to be able to draw attention to specific lines of code when needed.    (One suggestion of a different color background sounds nice too (ie a yellow background to draw the eye to the relevant code.)  If there is some other way to bold in code please let me know.
