How viable is using Quantum Entanglement for long distance communication?
Quantum entanglement as practical method of superluminal communication
Well, just another idea came up into my mind and i have no idea how to solve it :D Is there infinitely many prime numbers, which are not repunits and their inverse is also prime? (For example, inverse of 31 is 13 which is also prime. i didn't have any other name to describe the function!) P.S:I now know they are called s. Windows 98 on a modern computer? I read in a book &quot;Physics - Resnik and Halliday&quot; the explanation of Type-I Superconductors {cold ones} that:  The Electrons that make up current at super-cool temperatures move in coordinated pairs. One of the electrons in a pair may electrically distort the molecular structure of the superconducting material as it moves through, creating  nearby short-lived regions of positive charge.the other electron in the the pair may be attracted to the positive spot. According to the theory the coordination would prevent them from colliding with the molecules of the material and thus would eliminate electrical resistance  Is this the only explanation or can somebody give me a more intuitive explanation that also takes into the problem of defect scattering as in the case of resistance and also explains the Type-II superconductors {hot ones} P.S. What are &quot;coordinated pairs&quot;? The ring $\Bbb Z\left [\frac{-1+\sqrt{-19}}{2}\right ]$ is not a Euclidean domain Colorizing your terminal and shell environment? I spend most of my time working in Unix environments and using terminal emulators. I try to use color on the command line, because color makes the output more useful and intuitive.  What options exist to add color to my terminal environment? What tricks do you use? What pitfalls have you encountered?  Unfortunately, support for color varies depending on terminal type, OS, TERM setting, utility, buggy implementations, etc.  Here are some tips from my setup, after a lot of experimentation:   I tend to set TERM=xterm-color, which is supported on most hosts (but not all). I work on a number of different hosts, different OS versions, etc. I use everything from macOS X, Ubuntu Linux, RHEL/CentOS/Scientific Linux and FreeBSD. I'm trying to keep things simple and generic, if possible. I do a bunch of work using GNU screen, which adds another layer of fun. Many OSs set things like dircolors and by default, and I don't want to modify this on a hundred different hosts. So I try to stick with the defaults. Instead, I tweak my terminal's color configuration. Use color for some  (ls, grep, less, vim) and the . These commands seem to use the standard "". For example:  alias less='less --RAW-CONTROL-CHARS' export LS_OPTS='--color=auto' alias ls='ls ${LS_OPTS}'    I'll post my .bashrc and answer my own question Jeopardy Style. Why use sucrose rather than glucose in an injectable vaccine? These are the ingredients of :  Medicinal:  mRNA  Non-medicinal:  ALC-0315 = ((4-hydroxybutyl)azanediyl)bis(hexane-6,1-diyl)bis(2-hexyldecanoate) ALC-0159 = 2-[(polyethylene glycol)-2000]-N,N-ditetradecylacetamide 1,2-Distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine cholesterol dibasic sodium phosphate dihydrate monobasic potassium phosphate potassium chloride sodium chloride sucrose water for injection   Sucrose is broken up into glucose and fructose by digestion, and so it normally never enters the blood system. Yet here, it is being directly injected into the body. What happens to this sucrose when it enters the blood system, and why choose sucrose rather than the more standard glucose (dextrose)? Is there a "null coalescing" operator in JavaScript? "IllegalFormatConversionException: d != java.lang.String" when padding number with 0s? When to use IComparable Vs. IComparer I'm trying to figure out which of these interfaces I need to implement. They both essentially do the same thing. When would I use one over the other? I made changes to iptables config file in /etc/iptables/filter in Ubuntu and want to reload them. I read the man page and also googled but couldn't find the information. Any help will be appreciated. Failed to upload an image, "An error occurred at imgur" Currently I'm unable to upload an image to anywhere on site: e.g. posts or chat.                Is this problem with Imgur? When two accounts are merged, all the posts/votes are moved over to the "master" account, and the other account ("slave"?) is deleted. The merge is propagated network-wide, so a similar thing happens on each site.  But, this does not happen to the chat user. The "slave" chat user is kept, with a 404 parent profile link. I feel that the chat user should be merged as well, re attributing all the chat messages.  Thoughts? How to install the Pantheon desktop environment? Applications losing focus for a few seconds in Windows 7 Recently all of my applications keep losing focus every minute (or so) for a few seconds (then the window gets the focus back). It is very annoying, since I'm typing most of the time and get interrupted by this behavior. Things worked fine until a week ago and I have no idea what is causing this error, but I noticed the mouse moves to a certain point on one of my screens when this happens.  I would appreciate any advice: it starts to drive me crazy... I have no idea how to prove that the set $\{(x, |x|): x\in\mathbb{R}\}$ is not the image of an immersion of $\mathbb{R}$ into $\mathbb{R}^2$  For example   If $f(t)=(t^3, |t|^3)$ then $f'(0)=(0, 0)$. Given two functions $f$ and $g$, is there a formula for the Fourier transform of $f \circ g$ in terms of the Fourier transforms of $f$ and $g$ individually?  I know you can do this for the sum, the product and the convolution of two functions. But I haven't seen a formula for the composition of two functions. I have, by default, 250MB of swap space in Ubuntu, and I want to expand it to a larger size. I need 800MB, which I think will be enough to open several applications without having to hit the current limit of swap. I hope someone can help me. I was writing test classes for my apex Rest Service that I had built for an Ipad app.  I noted some very interesting things while experimenting. Before doing anything, I just did a google search and found an interesting blog post by Jeff.    @RestResource(urlMapping='/v.9/member/*/results/*')  global with sharing class MemberRestSvc {  @HttpGet  global static ReturnClass doGet() {  String[] uriKeys = RestContext.request.requestURI.split('/'); // get the member name from the uri String memberName = uriKeys.get(uriKeys.size()-3);  // do awesome programming stuff here &amp; catch any exceptions try {    List&lt;Contact&gt; contacts = [Select Id From Contact where member_name__c = :memberName];   return new ReturnClass('true', 'Query executed successfully.', contacts);  } catch (Exception e) {   return new ReturnClass('false', e.getMessage(), null); }   }   global class ReturnClass {  global String success; global String message; global List&lt;Contact&gt; records;    global ReturnClass(String success, String message, List&lt;Contact&gt; records) {   this.success = success;   this.message = message;   this.records = records;  }  }  }   And here is the test class  @isTest private class Test_MemberRestSvc {  static { // setup test data   }  static testMethod void testDoGet() {  RestRequest req = new RestRequest();  RestResponse res = new RestResponse();  req.requestURI = 'https://cs9.salesforce.com/services/apexrest/v.9/member/me/results/today';   req.httpMethod = 'GET'; RestContext.request = req; RestContext.response = res;  MemberRestSvc.ReturnClass results = MemberRestSvc.doGet();  System.assertEquals('true', results.success); System.assertEquals(10, results.records.size()); System.assertEquals('Query executed successfully.', results.message);  }  }   I just commented a few lines and ran and it. I still achieved enough test coverage so my question is why do I need to simply instantiate the Rest request and response objects since I am directly calling the class?    @isTest   private class Test_MemberRestSvc {    static {     // setup test data     }  static testMethod void testDoGet() {  /*RestRequest req = new RestRequest();  RestResponse res = new RestResponse();  req.requestURI =    'https://cs9.salesforce.com/services/apexrest/v.9/member/me/results/today';   req.httpMethod = 'GET'; RestContext.request = req; RestContext.response = res; */Commented the code meant for REST apex intialization and merely calling the method!!  MemberRestSvc.ReturnClass results = MemberRestSvc.doGet();  System.assertEquals('true', results.success); System.assertEquals(10, results.records.size()); System.assertEquals('Query executed successfully.', results.message);  }  }   Can someone explain this behavior? Also what are the best practices for writing Test classes for apex Rest services? How can I randomise the output of a redstone circuit? I have 5 buttons and only one of these can be correct, all others must be false. These 5 outputs will go into 2 outputs, in between there needs to be a circuit which changes which single button out of the 5 will go down the &quot;correct&quot; output of the final 2. The 4 remaining buttons must go to the second of the final 2 outputs. Both final outputs must give out a true signal for a brief period the same as a button on its own would produce. There should also be a way of activating the circuit. Not sure if that is explained well enough so I have made a basic diagram of what I need.  The diagram shows how I need the signal to be split. However in between the buttons and the final two wires there needs to be a circuit (marked by the grey box). This circuit changes the single button connected to the left wire. The right input should start the circuit and randomise the 5 buttons. There are no limits to size, amount of materials used or method used. This question is similar to the one asking about , but I am specifically working with Redstone circuitry - the commands solutions do not apply here Words with different meanings in American and British English This is similar to , but not quite the same.  There are quite a few words which have totally different meanings in American and British English and which are likely to cause confusion when heard by non-local speakers.  What are they?  We are looking for the same word with different meanings (for example jumper), and not words which are different between the two dialects (for example truck and lorry).
