How Is Microwave Popcorn Flavoured?
How do I coat popcorn with flavor?
Repeated error  I have been repeatedly encountering the following error when my laptop freezes. It may occur multiple times during the day, and should take several minutes to recover.  Source Windows  Summary Hardware error  Date ‎11/‎1/‎2018 10:11 AM  Status Not reported  Description A problem with your hardware caused Windows to stop working correctly.  Problem signature Problem Event Name: LiveKernelEvent Code:   144 Parameter 1:    3003 Parameter 2:    ffffad8c0b1a75c8 Parameter 3:    40010002 Parameter 4:    0 OS version: 10_0_17134 Service Pack:   0_0 Product:    256_1 OS Version: 10.0.17134.2.0.0.256.48 Locale ID:  1033   More details  Per my best reflection, the hardware error occurs when I am using the laptop on its docking station. Here is what I observe:   While using the laptop as normal, the "freeze" will occur and I can hardly operate the laptop: mouse cursor won't move continuously and Alt+Tab won't be able to switch across two windows. Shortly after (usually several minutes), things will go back to normal. Upon inspecting through the Performance tab in Task Manager, there had been no spike in anything, be it CPU, Memory or Disk. When I open the View reliability history tool, I will find another entry of Windows Hardware Error   Machine specification:   Thinkpad T480, i7-8650U (newly replaced module thanks to the manufacture)   With the same pair of docking stations, an older unit of T480 has had exactly the same problem.  Docking station: . Same issue has occurred on two identical docks with  slightly different monitors and accessories. OS specification: OS build 17134.376. Most recent collection of "reliability report":    Possible solutions   First, I would like to learn what exactly went wrong, hardware-wise: the manufacturer's support team did not bother too much with the precise error messages, and have ordered me to reinstall the Windows OS up to 5 times in total. [This is what they called "debugging".]   Please advise if you can decipher the recurrent "Hardware error".   Secondly, I will try to push the manufacturer to replace the docking stations, and see if the same "freezing problem' persists. Why should users have to press Return twice to insert new lines? When I post a question and want to add a new line, I have to press Return two times, or else the next text will appear on the same line.  Is this really supposed to behave this way? If so, why? Why does no physical energy-momentum tensor exist for the gravitational field? Starting  with the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian  $$ L_{EH} = -\frac{1}{2}(R + 2\Lambda)$$  one can formally calculate a gravitational energy-momentum tensor   $$ T_{EH}^{\mu\nu} = -2 \frac{\delta L_{EH}}{\delta g_{\mu\nu}}$$  leading to  $$ T_{EH}^{\mu\nu} = -G_{\mu\nu} + \Lambda g_{\mu\nu} = -(R_{\mu\nu} - \frac{1}{2}g_{\mu\nu}R) + \Lambda g_{\mu\nu}. $$  But then, in the paragraph below Eq. (228) on page 62 of  paper, it is said that this quantity is not a physical quantity and that it is well known that for the gravitational field no (physical) energy-momentum tensor exists.  To me personally, this fact is rather surprising than well known. So can somebody explain to me (mathematically and/or "intuitively") why there is no energy-momentum tensor for the gravitational field? Select translation: where? Is it possible to identify what the parent program/app is from a running process? I have a laptop which is connected to the internet with ADSL modem, and I would like to share the internet for any laptop connecting to wireless router from my laptop using hotspot.  This is what I want:  ┌────────────────────┐ │ ADSL modem         │ └───┬────────────────┘     │ ┌───┴───────────────────────┐ │ laptop's wired adaptor    │ │                           │ │ Hotspot software          │ │                           │ │ laptop's wireless adaptor │ └───┬───────────────────────┘     │ ┌───┴──────────────────────┐ │ wireless router(linksys) │ └───┬──────────────────────┘     │ ┌───┴─────────────────────────────┐ │ Laptop computers and cellphones │ └─────────────────────────────────┘   How can I do that? Trim string in JavaScript? When I try to connect to Google Play, it would say "download Google play service". After I downloaded it, it says that it is "not supported by your device, please contact the manufacturer". This is a question that keeps bothering me: much of mathematics was created by extending rules to new domains e.g. negative numbers were created by consistently extending arithmetic beyond positive integers. However, with number bases it seems impossible to do this. Number bases are integers, but could they be rational numbers? I've had previous discussions about this, see . One problem can be seen with this example: in base 2.5, 0.22 is greater than one. That's not what we want! What, if anything, can be done about this?  EDIT: To put it another way - if every positional number is less than any digit to its left, why doesn't this apply to fractional base positional numbers? Reflection of a line in a plane The line $l_1$ has the equation $r=(6i+2-2k)+\lambda(4i+5j-k)$ and the plane $\pi_1$: $2x-y+4z=4$, the line $l_2$ is the reflection of $l_1$ in the plane $\pi_1$. Find the exact vector equation of line $l_2$   So the line intersects the plane when $\lambda=-2$, giving the point $(-2,-8,0)$ which will be common on $l_1$ and $l_2$. But I am unsure on how to find the direction vector for $l_2$. Any help would be appreciated. Why can Naruto still use Rasenshuriken? When Naruto first used Rasenshuriken against Kakuzu the effect was massive. He destroyed   two of Kakuzu's hearts, but there were a huge after effect to him. If I'm not mistaken, Tsunade advised Kakashi to ask Naruto never to use the technique again due to the huge risk. So why is Naruto still able to use the technique and have no side effects after that battle? I may have missed out on something. what does ∇ (upside down triangle) symbol mean in this problem Given $f(x) = \frac{1}{2}x^TAx + b^Tx + \alpha $   where A is an nxn symmetric matrix, b is an n-dimensional vector, and alpha a scalar. Show that  $\bigtriangledown _{x}f(x) = Ax + b$   and  $H = \bigtriangledown ^{2}_{x}f(x) = A$   Is this simply a matter of taking a derivative with respect to X, how would you attack this one? How can I manually create a pixel perfect image sprite? Expectation of Exit Time of Brownian Motion from Interval I am trying to solve the following:  Let $W_t$ be a brownian motion and $a,b &gt;0.$  Define $\tau$ to be the exit time of $W_t$ from $[-a,b]$, that is $$\tau = \inf\{t \ge 0\ :\ W_{t}(\omega) \notin [-a,b]\}.$$  Show that $\tau$ is integrable and compute $\mathbb{E}(\tau)$.  I have seen this stated without proof multiple places that $\mathbb{E}(\tau)=ab.$  What is the logical argument that backs up this statement?  How are we guaranteed $\tau$ is integrable? How do I study the "correlation" between a continuous variable and a categorical variable? How do I make a Lightning Bow in vanilla Minecraft? I'm trying to make a setup with command blocks that summons lightning at the location of a shot arrow. The setup should recognize the arrow that is shot or the bow that is used by its name or another property, so that lightning only strikes at that specific arrow.   Also, the lightning should only strike once when the arrow hits the ground. I know this is somehow possible with scoreboard, but I'm no good with that. Does anyone know how to make a Lightning Bow in vanilla Minecraft? We know that if you (using Polyjuice), take the form of someone who had been injured, you assume that injured form (e.g. Barty/Moody). If you are injured, presumably you would be uninjured while under Polyjuice. My question is, is this in real-time? That is, if you take a Polyjuice, and while you're still under its effects, the person being transformed into gets injured (or even dies), will that injury be transferred onto you? And conversely, if you get injured while in someone else's body, will that transfer over to your real body after the Polyjuice wears off, will it disappear, or will it go to the person you turned into? Zero dimensional points do not take up space, so then wouldn't everything in the universe be literally empty? Or is there something that I'm missing? Existence of a Riemannian metric inducing a given distance. Let $M$ be a smooth, finite-dimensional manifold. Suppose $M$ is also a metric space, with a given distance function $d: M \times M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}_{+}$, which is compatible with the original (manifold) topology on $M$.  Question: is there a Riemannian metric $g$ on $M$ such that the distance $$d_g(p, q) = \inf_{\gamma \in \Omega(p, q)} L_g(\gamma)$$ coincides with $d$?  I believe that this setting is very standard, but for the sake of completeness: $L_g$ denotes the Riemannian length of the curve $\gamma$, and $\Omega(p, q)$ the set of all piecewise smooth curves $\gamma : [a, b] \rightarrow M$ s.t. $\gamma(a) = p$ and $\gamma(b) = q$.
