【Re-question】Is it possible to call future from batch?
Calling future method from Batch
Proof that for $a,b,c\in \mathbb{R}$, hold that $\left |\sqrt {a^2+b^2}-\sqrt {a^2+c^2}  \right |\leq \left |b-c  \right |$. Give me a clue, I don't have any idea to work with that inequality. Doing a little reading over the break (The Probabilistic Method by Alon and Spencer); can't come up with the solution for this seemingly simple (and perhaps even a little surprising?) result:     (A-S 1.6.3) Prove that for every two independent identically distributed real random variables $X$ and $Y$,   $$Pr[|X-Y| \leq 2] \leq 3 Pr[|X-Y| \leq 1].$$ How can I get admin access to a Mac without knowing the current password? My Father died last year and I inherited his Mac Mini. My wife has retired and we are trying to set up the mini for her use but the changes we want to make require admin access and we do not have the information my father used to set up the machine.  Is it possible to reset the admin information without having the old information? If so, how would I go about it?   I am not a Mac user usually so any guidance will have to be pretty simple! Do indexes work with "IN" clause If I have a query like:  Select EmployeeId  From Employee  Where EmployeeTypeId IN (1,2,3)   and I have an index on the EmployeeTypeId field, does SQL server still use that index? Typically Apt packages are served over bare HTTP and the downloaded contents are verified with GPG signatures. This makes it easy for  to proxy the HTTP connections and add the downloaded packages to its cache. apt-cacher-ng is unable to directly MITM an HTTPS connection created by Apt. It is possible to  apt-cacher-ng, but then the contents are not cached--they are re-downloaded from the remote server every time. This quickly gets annoying when rebuilding Docker containers that install many packages from Apt repositories served over HTTPS. Is there a way to get apt-cacher-ng to cache packages downloaded from HTTPS repositories? Where can I find Ghost/Poison/Psychic type Pokémon? "died from" versus "died of" Why can't I say “She died from drinking 18 cans of Coca-Cola”? Instead, the correct sentence would be “She died of drinking 18 cans of Coca-Cola”. Why does that happen?

Trying to recover: I've tried almost any method to root my ASUS ZenFone Live, but no one seems to work.

Minimum of $\sqrt{\frac{a}{b+c}}+\sqrt{\frac{b}{c+a}}+\sqrt{\frac{c}{a+b}}$ What is the minimum of $$f(a,b,c):=\sqrt{\dfrac{a}{b+c}}+\sqrt{\dfrac{b}{c+a}}+\sqrt{\dfrac{c}{a+b}}$$ where $a,b,c$ are positive real numbers?  When $a=b=c$, we have $f(a,b,c)=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}\approx 2.12$  When $a=1,b=c\rightarrow\infty$, we have $f(a,b,c)\rightarrow 2$. So the minimum is at most $2$. Harry was never a Horcrux of Voldemort     I have heard this line on SE a lot &amp; also vaguely read about that discussion.     My question is if Harry was not Voldemort's Horcrux &amp; if all the other 6 (5 inanimate objects &amp; Nagini) were destroyed beyond repair &amp; Harry tries to Avada Kedavra Voldemort, would he die? What would happen to Voldemort's soul inside Harry.  I've asked this question keeping in mind Harry isn't a technical Horcrux but only a part of Voldemort's soul is in him. So can Voldemort resurrect from this soul?    If its a duplicate, please mention the relevant discussion link in the comments When will data.SE get updated data? php Replacing multiple spaces with a single space What are the differences in implementing interfaces implicitly and explicitly in C#?  When should you use implicit and when should you use explicit?  Are there any pros and/or cons to one or the other?    Microsoft's official guidelines (from first edition ) states that using explicit implementations are not recommended, since it gives the code unexpected behaviour.  I think this guideline is very valid in a pre-IoC-time, when you don't pass things around as interfaces.  Could anyone touch on that aspect as well? Are airlines in the EU obligated to provide water for passengers? Evaluating $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty}(a_1^n+\dots+a_k^n)^{1\over n}$ where $a_1 \ge \cdots\ge a_k \ge 0$ Need to find $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty}(a_1^n+\dots+a_k^n)^{1\over n}$ Where $a_1\ge\dots\ge a_k\ge 0$  I thought about Cauchy Theorem on limit $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty}\dfrac{a_1+\dots+a_n}{n}=\lim a_n$ and something like what happen if all $a_i=0$ or $a_1=\dots=a_k$, but may be something I am thinking wrong?  Maybe it is too simple but I am not getting it; please help. Polar form to cartesian Let $\Gamma$ be a circle that passes through the origin. Show that we can find real numbers $s$ and $t$ such that $\Gamma$ is the graph of $r = 2s \cos (\theta + t).$  I know this has to be converted to a cartesian equation, but how do I do this, and what do I do after?  Thanks Proof that $\suṃ̣_{k=1}^{n}k {n \choose k}$ for $n \in \mathbb N$ is equal to $n2^{n-1}$.  As a hint I got that $k {n \choose k} = n {n-1\choose k-1} $.  I tried solving this by induction but, in the inductive step I'm not arriving to the correct result.
