Why we cannot computing the integral of P(x) in Bayesian Inference analytically?
Why sometimes evidence is said to be too complex to compute and other times is negelected cause it is fixed?
Installing TTF fonts in LaTeX One of the annoying aspects of LaTeX is the limited number of fonts that come by default, and the pain involved in making new fonts 'LaTeX' ready. I have a collection of truetype fonts that I'd like to prepare for use, and I definitely want to make sure I have vector versions of these fonts (i.e not type 3/bitmapped versions). Is there a relatively painless way to do this ? What are the options for a non-EU national who wants to extend his stay in Switzerland (totaling less than 90 days)? Customise date-time format in Windows Is it possible to customize data (or date-time) format in Windows (I am using Windows&nbsp;XP)?  The current format which is followed by the OS [to show date-modified, etc.] is MM/DD/YYYY or M/D/YYYY, whereas I have been comfortable with DD/MM/YYYY or D/M/YYYY format. I am finding it hard to refer Date-modified [which I use often] of files and folders. Parameter Sniffing (or Spoofing) in SQL Server A while ago I had a query that I ran quite a lot for one of my users. It was still being evolved and tweaked but eventually it stablised and ran quite quickly, so we created a stored procedure from it.   So far, so normal.   The stored procedure, though, was dog slow. No material difference between the query and the proc, but the speed change was massive.   [Background, we're running SQL Server 2005.]  A friendly local DBA (who no longer works here) took one look at the stored procedure and said "parameter spoofing!" (Edit: although it seems that it is possibly also known as 'parameter sniffing', which might explain the paucity of Google hits when I tried to search it out.)   We abstracted some of the stored procedure to a second one, wrapped the call to this new inner proc into the pre-existing outer one, called the outer one and, hey presto, it was as quick as the original query.   So, what gives? Can someone explain parameter spoofing?   Bonus credit for    highlighting how to avoid it  suggesting how to recognise possible cause discuss alternative strategies, e.g. stats, indices, keys, for mitigating the situation What's the current state of LaTeX3 (2020)? There are a few questions on this forum asking about why Latex3 is taking so long to come out. However, all of these are from the early 2010s. I'm just wondering what the current state of the project is and whether it's ready (or nearly ready) for prime time? Flow On Schedule I"ve created a flow that I'd like to run monthly on the 7th day of each month. How can I do this with scheduled apex. I have no experience writing apex from scratch. Any suggestions or starting off points appreciated.  Thanks,  Kris The Boolean modifier is not working I'm trying to model an , but it's not going so well when it comes to the magazine of the weapon.   Next to the magazine is a mesh. I want to cut holes in the mag with that mesh. But the magazine just goes invisible or connects with the mesh when trying to execute the Boolean Modifier. I have tested to invert the normals and some other stuff, but it isn't working. If $p$ is a prime and $p \mid ab$, then $p \mid a$ or $p \mid b$. The proof is already given in the textbook but I tried other way around.   Proof by contradiction: Let's assume that $p$ doesn't divide $a$ and $p$ doesn't divide $b$, but $p$ divides $ab$. So $\gcd(p,a)=1$ and $\gcd(p,b)=1$. Given that we can construct linear combinations   $sp+ta=1$ together with $up+wb=1$. Multiplying the left and the right sides of the equations we get  $spup+spwb+taup+tawb=1$ or $p(sup+swb+tau)+ab(tw)=1 \implies \gcd(p,ab)=1$. This is a contradiction.   Is it rigorous and sound proof? How to call a constructor on an already allocated memory? How can I call a constructor on a memory region that is already allocated? What blueprints become available during story? As I progress, I realize that some blueprints open up throughout the story and don't have to be researched. Are these random or are they always the same and is there a list over those? Seems you can easily waste research point if you don't know that. How can I determine whether a 2D Point is within a Polygon? There is no fruit jet pack. I can't get it. How do I get it? I looked at the jetpacks many times. There are none. Best way to randomize an array with .NET What is the best way to randomize an array of strings with .NET? My array contains about 500 strings and I'd like to create a new Array with the same strings but in a random order.  Please include a C# example in your answer.

When my phone runs out of battery it needs like 2–3 days to turn back on. At the beginning of this problem the phone would need about 1h. Every time when my phone goes off again the time to switching on goes up.  What does this all look like? Well, when my phone died I put it on the charger, then the logo appears and goes off. When it goes off, a black screen pops out with a little white line on in it, then it turns on back to Apple logo. It keeps doing this until it turns on which is 1 or 2 even now 3 days.  I tried to restore it and also update it but nothing happens, literally nothing happened. How do I get the value of a textbox using jQuery?
