Where has Indian media gone wrong? | Yes!!
You must have heard about Shah Rukh Khan, for those who don’t know let me tell you he is one of the most famous, biggest and richest bollywood giant who is known for his work worldwide and had made the nation proud but some religious minded news channel people are to question his religion and his patriotism. Who are they to question anybody’s religion.
Just for the sake of TRP they can publicise and insult anybody so the indian media is a complete bullshit their are various serious issues to talk about.

What do British conservatives think about such things as gun rights, ending abortion, ending gay marriage, and restoring the death penalty? | I presume this question comes from the US. What Americans often don’t get is that their “centre” in politics is sooo much further to the right than our centre. Our “conservatives” (with a big or a small C) are not like yours. (Many of us would call your “conservatives” “fascists”).
There is no serious or realistic drive towards making any major changes in any of the four areas you mentioned. A few Conservative MPs are anti-abortion and brave enough to say so (it is bravery, here) but they are in such a minority they will never get anywhere with it. And no-one even talks about the other three - they’re done deals. The idea of “ending gay marriage” is particularly amusing - we’ve only had it a few years! Several Tory MPs are in gay marriages themselves. Anyway, it’s codified into law now. Over here in the free world, we don’t get our rights taken away from us based on the whims and personal feelings of whoever happens to be a judge at the time.

How do I transfer a Word document to a PDF? | On most any computer and OS, all you need is to open the file and save it / export it as pdf (File/Save as PDF or File/Export as PDF). Besides, that’s how it should work in any app.
If you do not have Word installed or your edition of Word is not able to open the old .doc format correctly, download and install LibreOffice ([LINKED_TEXT: LibreOffice - Free Office Suite - Based on OpenOffice - Compatible with Microsoft] [URL: http://libreoffice.org/]). Open the file and select File/Export as PDF). A menu listing the available PDF options (such as Password protection, initial view, would you like the PDF to be archival PDF/A for long time preservation, etc.) appears. Select your options and go export.
If you need more than a bare “normal” PDF export provided by Word (no choice of format, password protection, just dull “normal” pdf) go to LibreOffice again. Otherwise, just click File/Save as and select the name for your pdf.

Should farmers be prohibited from owning guns? | Should fools like you be prohibited from posting stupid questions like this online ? The answer to both is “no”. Just like the 2nd Amendment bars the government on infringing on the farmer’s right to own firearms, the 1st Amendment bars the government from infringing on your right to showcase your ignorance online like you just have done here. So enjoy that right, you are good at it. Thanks for the laugh !

Republicans say democrats are trying to turn kids gay, but aren’t they trying to turn gay kids straight with conversion camps? | Essentially, yes. But the kinds of Republicans that believe in conversion camps or conversion therapy don’t see it that way. They tend to think that no one is really gay. They tend to see being gay as an aberration that needs to be “corrected.”
In my experience, such Republicans aren’t very good at applying their arguments consistently. Lots of special pleading. (“That’s different!”)

As a stay-at-home parent, how much help do you get from your partner when running the home and looking after the kids? | Im not the stay at home parent . Really neither of us are however my partner is a teacher so she gets home first , plus with summers off Id say she has more of that duty . I grew up watching my Pop ALWAYS help my mom all the time , however & whenever he could . So i follow that example . For instance I dont have to be in my office till 1030. So ill take the girls to school less stress for her mornings. I get up very early .Habit i carry over from military so I get breakfast ready and lunch boxes set up . Days I get home before her Ill get dinner ready or if its something I cant cook I set things up , cut veggies etc . I dont understand the guys who say they cant cook yet wont even do any prep work . I help the girls do there homework . Which ever parent tends to do most of the children handling duties its VERY important for the other partner to be the best support person they possibly can . We should always remember that our kids will eventually find someone some day and the best example is what they see at home . Lastly NEVER let anyone say that stay at home moms are NOT working , its the toughest job and unfortunately the most underappreciated. So i make sure my partner always knows that I appreciate her and everything she does. Its a great joy to watch my girls 12 & 8 and see the young woman they are becoming…

My manager said she is not able to keep my position anymore but asks me for a resignation letter. Am I fired, or did I quit? | She’s giving you the opportunity to resign instead of having to let you go (fire you). So if you give her that resignation letter, then you’ve voluntarily quit, meaning have resigned. But if you don’t give her that letter, then she’ll need to terminate your employment, meaning fire you. FYI, in some states, you will not collect unemployment if you resign from your job!

What was your interview experience at IOCL through the GATE 2019? | My IOCL interview was scheduled on 1st July, 2019 and the venue was Dhakuria, Kolkata.
Department: Electrical
Post applied for: Officer/Engineer
We entered the building exactly at 8:00 a.m. and after sometime the presentation (or the pre-placement talk) started in a conference hall. After a beautiful presentation, we were given tags or sort of identity cards with numbers on them. Mine was Kolkata -1, 16.
FYI, there were 27 candidates allotted for the day from electrical domain and atleast 7 of them were absent.
After we all had our breakfast, document verification process started which took a lot of time.
My GD/GT started at around 12:00 p.m. There were 2 moderators and 8 candidates in the group.
The topic for GD was “Retirement room is the ultimate destination of the old age people”. 2 mins were given for jotting down the points( a board and a paper were given to us). It continued for around 10 minutes. Then the moderator asked each of us to conclude.
The topic for GT was “Plan proper ways to make an ecologically sustainable city”. 3 mins were given to write down points. Everyone of us gave valuable points and after 10 mins, we were asked to conclude. As one member was mid-way concluding, another member intervened and added another point and then another member followed him. I guess this could have put a negative impact. Apart from that, everything was pretty smooth.
After sometime, I was called for the interview. I entered and greeted them. There were 5 members- 2 female and 3 male. Fore ease of understanding, let’s denote them as F1, F2 and M1,M2,M3 and myself as V.
F1 : Well Mr. Vivek, tell us something about yourself.
V: I told everything including hobbies, strengths and weaknesses.
M1: What was your final year project?
V: Designing of Rotary-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle commonly known as Drone
M1: What are the applications of drone?
V: I told everything I prepared.
F1: You said your hobby is watching Sci-fi movies, which sci-fi have you watched recently?
V: Interstellar
F1: Haven’t you watched Avengers Endgame?
V: Yes mam, but I recently watched Interstellar again as it’s my favorite movie.
(By this time, I became pretty comfortable)
F1: So, you said you tend to fumble while speaking when you are nervous, why does it happen?
V: I explained to them how my lack of confidence gets the better of me at certain situations. But then I said that I am working on it.
F2: So, you like teaching, whom do you teach and which subject?
V: Mostly, from 6th standard to 10th. I used to teach Mathematics and Computer earlier, now I teach only computer, mostly, the coding part.
F2: Why don’t you teach higher secondary students?
V: Mam, I prefer teaching the basics to the students than the advanced part because I feel if I can make them love this subject at this age then may be they will willingly pursue their career in it.
She was pretty satisfied with my answer.
F2: You have only one strength? (I have mentioned only one strength in my intro, that’s why). Any other strength?
V: (I almost forgot my other strength and was speechless for few seconds then suddenly, I remembered)Mam, I always try to learn from my mistakes.
F2: Ohh, so you learn after doing plunders. (She mumbled)
Quickly, she went to the other question.
F2: There are so many candidates out there, why should we hire you? What makes you different?
V: I emphasized on my strengths (that I can adjust to any situation easily) and said that every firm likes to have this quality in their employees that they are flexible enough to work in any condition. I don’t know whether this makes me different or not but it does give me an upper-hand amongst another candidates.
(She was satisfied with my answer and gestured the other interviewer to question me)
M1: Being an Electrical Engineer, your technical knowledge will not be used in case you are selected in marketing division. How do you justify that?
V: It’s true that my technical knowledge will be of no use in marketing division but as an engineer, the analytical skills we develop during the 4 years will definitely help me there.
M1: What do you know about the job profile in marketing division?
V: As far as I know, in marketing division further there are different departments like aviation, LPG, retail sales, lubes and others. We could be assigned in any one of them. We will be asked to deal with the consumers. I said I wasn’t so sure.
M1: What are the different divisions in IOCL?
V: I answered 6 of them, forgot one. He told me that I missed Petrochemicals.
M1: Have you ever visited a retail outlet? If yes, what are the things that are sold there?
V: I told all of them
(Then another member started)
M2: What is Auto-Gas?
V: Auto-Gas is basically Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)
M2: Which brand of IOCL is related to LPG?
V: Indane
(Kind of ‘Rapid fire round’)
M2: And to lubricants?
V: SERVO
M2: To petrochemicals?
V: PROPEL
M2: Okay, let’s start the technical part.
(Me in my mind - Why!! This is going so good.. Why would you spoil it? Lol!!)
Reason — I haven’t studied anything technical since March, that’s why.
M2: What is a relay?
V: Answered
M2: What happens when fault occurs and there is no protection ?
V: I answered but he wasn’t that satisfied.
M2: What is electro-mechanical relay?
V: Answered
M2: Name some types of relay
V: Answered
M1 then started questioning
M1: What is the supply voltage at home?
V: 415V, sir. (Couldn't have been more wrong!!)
M1: What is it, RMS or average or peak value?
V: RMS
M1: What is definition of RMS? Why do we consider RMS and not Average value?
V: Answered, wasn’t satisfactory enough.
M1: What is Form Factor? Is F.F. infinite when Average value of sinusoidal wave is 0?
V: I answered.
Finally, M3 started. What a personality he had! He was the oldest in the room and was using his chair like a couch.
M3: You said your weakness is Overthinking, tell us one instance where this affected you.
V: I was prepared for this question and answered accordingly.
M3: Okay, “Honesty is the best policy”. Justify it in 3 sentences.
V: 1) I said about the feel good factor. 2) It's easy to say the truth.. when we lie .. in order to cover for it .. we need to continue lying.. 3) People will always come to you for an honest answer or review..
No further counter questions from his end.
F1: Who is the Minister of Petroleum and Gas?
V: Respected Dharmendra Pradhan
F1: Finance Minister
V: Respected Nirmala Sitharaman.. She is the first female finance minister of India.
F1: IOCL also deals with jet fuel. Do you know what is it?
V: Yes, mam.. ATF.. Aviation Turbine Fuel
After this, they asked me to leave and conveyed their best.
The whole interview took around 20 mins. By 2 p.m. it was over.
Now the most important part .. LUNCH.. It was awesome. I was happy that I did not do any plunder in the interview like I did in ONGC. Although the technical part could have gone better.
I might have forgotten some more questions. If I recall later, I will edit.
After having lunch, we were asked to give feedbacks and return the tags given to us.

My 3-year-old insists on sleeping on the floor. Should I let him? | I don’t think there is anything wrong with putting a mattress in the corner with all the comfy bed things. If he wants to sleep on the floor next to the bed, he’ll likely get over it and move over to the bed. I would always put him down on the bed but make next to the bed a comfortable place.
Of course, if you have stairs, you should secure them.

What reasons might Israel have for considering this strike necessary? | And why on earth should Israel be aware of how many health workers they have, if everyone knows that they receive billions of dollars in aid, which can be used to train at least a thousand doctors at the Sorbonne or Oxford? Oh, they spent all the humanitarian aid digging and building tunnels in the metro-city ?! And why not the Faculty of Virology, Microbiology and simply trained medical technicians to take blood from a vein? What do you say, there is no money at all? Was it all used for armaments? And to the villas for the mafia bosses? Oh, what a misfortune ... well, then let it be so, this is the fruit of their choice, did you get the hint, madam? Well, fine.

Should I choose electrical and electronics engineering in BITS Pilani or would an MSc in economics be better? I'm mediocre in studies as I got only 240 in the BITSAT 2023. | Whether you should choose electrical and electronics engineering (EEE) or MSc in economics at BITS Pilani depends on your interests, aptitude, and career goals.
EEE is a challenging but rewarding field. It offers a wide range of career options, including software development, hardware design, and embedded systems. If you are interested in technology and problem-solving, then EEE could be a good fit for you.MSc in economics is a more theoretical field. It offers a deeper understanding of economic principles and how they apply to the real world. If you are interested in business, finance, or public policy, then MSc in economics could be a good fit for you.
Your BITSAT score of 240 is considered mediocre, but it is still within the range for admission to BITS Pilani. However, it is important to note that the competition for admission to EEE is very high. If you are not confident in your ability to succeed in EEE, then you may want to consider MSc in economics.
Ultimately, the decision of which program to choose is up to you. Consider your interests, aptitude, and career goals carefully before making a decision.
Here are some additional factors to consider when making your decision:
Job prospects: Both EEE and MSc in economics offer good job prospects. However, the job market for EEE engineers is more competitive.Salary: The average salary for EEE engineers is higher than the average salary for economists.Work-life balance: EEE engineers typically have longer working hours than economists.Personal interest: Which field are you more interested in? Which field do you think you would be more passionate about?
I hope this helps!

Why are people quitting sugar or just anti-sugar in general? | Because they're becoming enlightened about the serious dangers of processed sugars…I explain:
The SUGAR INDUSTRY learned that their product caused heart-disease (in mice) and buried the dirt. They “deflected” the damage.. to saturated fats (via Ancel Keys of Harvard).
Now…the new “Carbohydrate-Insulin Model” of obesity states that rapid intake of sugar/fast-carbs triggers an insulin-alone surge…that sends ALL the sugar to fat cells…that are uniquely “primed” via excess omega 6 to be sensitive to insulin. Then it is stored…as fats via “de novo” lipogenesis. That, in turn, causes EVERY metabolic disease system…and yes, circulating levels of free fats and triglycerides abounds.
It DOES SEEM counterintuitive that excess sugar INCREASES bad lipids. Conversely…going “low-carb” to “keto”…causes a reversion (takes a few days) to “beta-oxidation”, where mighty MITOCHONDRIA convert those fats…to useable energy…DECREASING circulating levels of lipids.
But WAIT! I caution you about those “lowfat” dairy products! In the mania about the dangers of saturated fats…the industry removes saturateds…then adds PALMITATE…for smoothness and texture…but PALMITATE debilitates MITOCHONDRIA via “fission”-go figure! (That in turn debilitates YOUR beta-oxidation network-hello fibromyalgia).
Now…just where was I? Oh yeah…about ARTIFICIAL sweeteners? Don't wait up for THAT to save you…you see, they trigger a “dry-release” of insulin…which then causes a SUGAR CRASH (worse than with real sugar)…causing rampant hunger and sugar-cravings (repeat cycle and gain fat from overeating whatever).
Now, about those sugar-cravings? They come from excessive omega 6 levels (in meat, fat-fried foods via vegetable oils), which begats Arachidonic Acid (that causes EVERY PMS symptom), which begats Anandamide…the very thing that drives YOUR sugar-craving BIG-TIME!
Now…back to those FAT-CELLS you've been packing with blubber (via sugar and friends, recall)-a signaling molecule called leptin is SUPPOSED to tell excess fat cells…to DIE GRACEFULLY (when the control tower senses we've eaten enough?) But…sorry there too- excess omega 6 causes THICKENED CELL-WALLS…so fat cells just don't get the signal to stop…next stop? You need to be the BIGGEST LOSER, capiche?
Ok now…enough with the horror-story. Well…one more bit first…meat producers like this just FINE as it is…they LOVE people overeating their omega 6 laden meats…they sell more meat that way.
But I've solved this debacle…really I have…by rebalancing omega 9:6:3…to omega 9 excess…that produces a downchain chemistry…to an APPETITE-SUPPRESSANT that blocks said sugar, etc. cravings. This is EXTREMELY complex, of course…and I've tried to oversimplify for brevity…I could also delve DEEPER…into shifting fat storage to fat-burning (beige cells), but this question was only abiut SUGAR, recall.

How prevalent is cheating at MIT? | I think like a lot of these types of institutions, many people will, but not because that’s hire they got there. There may be something they are struggling with - or think they are - so they may.
I hated the idea of cheating, but I do recall struggling to remember a formula (it’s decades ago so I can’t recall if it was school, college or professional institution), but I wrote the formula on a piece of paper and put it in my leather calculator case.
I was to scared to even take it out, but had summertime seen it, I’d have been branded (rightly) a cheat.
I very, very, very much doubt someone got into MIT by cheating all the way through school, entrance exams, etc., (tho I recall hearing Dubya went to Yale, so I DO believe bribery will get some people somewhere).

What do you think about the way Western media demonize Vladimir Putin? | He deserves it

Can I see a picture of your dog? | Sure! Here is a picture of my dog:

If a job is still being advertised 4 months after you were rejected, and you think you are qualified for it, would you reapply? | You need a different resume for every job you apply for. Humans have been all but eliminated from the hiring process. Technology decides which applicants resumes get seen based on words and phrases detected on the resume. Side note imo employers that do this and or require a college degree in many cases are shooting themselves in the foot.

What are your experiences with the culture at PwC/the Big 4? | I bet most of the answers would certainly clarify on one thing which is rather conclusive that Big 4 firms value clients more than life of an employee. But this makes sense, since that’s how they build trust and are the top choices among clients.
I had worked as an audit associate in one of the big 4’s for 3 years and though experiences may vary at team level but here are the things which I could list out at the firm level:
They invest in their people to acquire relevant skills and further they have attained so much experience in what they do, which gives you a huge learning/growth potential in your preferred area of expertise.Given statement 1, they definitely have high expectations from their employees which are directly linked to your promotions and bonuses. It doesn’t matter you work 24 hours a day, it’s the targets achieved that creates an impact.Politics helps you sustain and can’t get ignored.Your opinions get the respect they deserve if you speak up and propound smartly.You meet diverse smart individuals and various team building initiatives helps one get comfortable enough.
These reflect the good as well as the dark side but that’s what the way life is “You weigh the pros and cons and decide your preferences.”

If life grew out of organic sludge, why haven't we seen another example of that kind of creation? | Well, organic goo is a silly idea. Where did this organic goo come from ? Secularism mocks Christianity for believing in a flying spaghetti monster, but it can conjure up organic goo at will to explain abiogenesis. That’s hypocrisy isn’t it ? You bet it is.
Life is complicated. Anyone who tries to trivial life as a series of chemical reactions is clearly not fully versed in how biology works. Its worse than saying computers are a bunch of silicon thrown together. computers are more than just silicon. Computers have both hardware and software. No one would believe that over billions of years, computers evolved from calculators, which evolved from transistors which emerged from silicate goo. That would be silly right ?
Well, life is far more complicated than computers. Life also has a hardware and software component. Proteins are the hardware, genes are the software. Both rely on each other, its a mutually inclusive system folks.
In order for life to exist, we need genes and ATP. Genes are the instructions for building stuff. ATP is the energy source needed to drive all of this cellular work.
Here is the paradox of life. Life needs information, which needs to be encoded into genes. Protein enzymes are needed to build the nucleotides, bring them together, and form stable bonds. But these protein enzymes also need genes. See the paradox ? In order to create these proteins we need ATP. ATP is manufactured by ATP synthase, another protein enzyme which needs a gene as well. Another paradox. This simplified explanation is what makes abiogenesis impossible without a supernatural causation, which is God. Follow this logic and you’ll see why most intelligent atheists avoid any discussion about abiogenesis. All roads point to God.

Who really runs the world? | The phrase "who really runs the world" often refers to discussions and theories about the individuals, groups, or entities that exert significant influence over global affairs, politics, economy, and culture. It's important to note that there isn't a single, definitive answer to this question, as power and influence are distributed across a complex network of actors and institutions.
Some common groups or entities that are often mentioned in discussions about global influence include:
Governments and Political Leaders: Major world powers and their leaders play a significant role in shaping global policies, international relations, and economic systems.Corporations and Financial Institutions: Large multinational corporations, banks, and financial institutions wield substantial economic power and can influence policies and decisions through lobbying, investments, and market activities.International Organizations: Organizations like the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and World Trade Organization have a role in shaping international policies and cooperation.Media and Communication Companies: Media conglomerates can shape public opinion, influence narratives, and impact culture, which can in turn influence global dynamics.Secret Societies and Conspiracy Theories: Some theories speculate about secret groups or societies that allegedly control world events from behind the scenes. These ideas often lack concrete evidence and are highly debated.Technology Companies: Tech giants have gained immense influence over communication, information dissemination, and technological innovation, impacting various aspects of society.Cultural and Academic Influencers: Intellectuals, artists, writers, and academics can shape cultural norms, values, and discussions that influence global perceptions and directions.
It's important to approach discussions about who "runs the world" with critical thinking and skepticism. Power and influence are complex and often interconnected, and attributing everything to a single entity or group oversimplifies the intricate dynamics that shape our world. Different factors interact and change over time, making it difficult to pinpoint a definitive answer.

Is it unethical to tell an Alzheimer’s patient that they’re vacationing in an awesome place, rather than telling them they’re in a care facility—assuming they would take your word for it, feel happy, and not discover the lie? | My great grandmother had Alzheimer's. Shortly after her husband passed away, she went to live in a care home. It was a wonderful place with kind and dedicated staff, chickens, and even a pair of chinchillas!
Nan believed that she owned the place. She would ask how much the other residents were paying her, and regularly looked out at the garden, only to sigh and say “I don't know how I'm going to manage all that”. She'd also often comment that Bernie (my grandad) was waiting on hot coals for her to get home from work.
Both the staff and us as a family agreed with everything she said. For her, moving to a care home wasn't frightening or overwhelming as it might have been. It almost seemed to give her a new lease of life, as she seemed to be imagining herself at a time when she felt happiest.
Perhaps it is unethical to lie, but it's a far kinder alternative. Losing your memory is scary enough without the added burden of having to move into a care home.
My nan was very well cared for, from the moment she walked in those doors, to when she passed away a few months later. She died feeling safe, happy, and rich!

Why do waitresses ask if Coke is okay instead of Pepsi? Do you think it makes a big difference if you get Coke or Pepsi? | Coke and Pepsi are brand names of cola drinks. If someone asks for a brand name and you're going to give them something different it's necessary to check if that's OK.
Additionally, Coke and Pepsi taste very different so you can't assume they are interchangeable for everyone. Same with full sugar and diet versions.

A modern submarine has a very small galley; even smaller than the kitchen in my apartment. How do cooks organize a sub galley to feed a full crew three times daily? It seems like a Herculean task. | A simple answer to this. Submarine chefs are magicians, one night shift chef bakes the bread for the day for 130 men and also cooks breakfast for everyone . He also goes to the stores and fridges getting out all the victuals ready for when the 2 day chefs come on. The two day chefs cook lunch and the evening meals . They do all this in the space of your average garden shed, a massive task made to look easy by these culinary masteminds. There is an unwritten law onboard subs, never upset the chefs…..

How do people who eat only once or twice a day manage to not feel hungry between meals? | People who eat only once or twice a day may adopt certain strategies to manage their hunger and sustain themselves between meals. Here are a few factors that contribute to their ability to feel satisfied:
Nutrient-dense meals: When individuals consume balanced meals that are rich in nutrients, including protein, healthy fats, and fiber, [LINKED_TEXT: Anufoodrecpie] [URL: http://www.anufoodrecpie.in/] they tend to feel fuller for longer periods. These nutrients provide sustained energy and help curb hunger cravings.Adequate portion sizes: Controlling portion sizes during meals is important for feeling satisfied. By consuming an appropriate amount of food during their main meals, individuals can avoid overeating and maintain a comfortable level of fullness until their next meal.Hydration: Staying well-hydrated can help manage hunger. Sometimes, feelings of hunger can actually be mistaken for thirst. By drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day, individuals can keep themselves hydrated and reduce the likelihood of unnecessary snacking between meals.Mindful eating: Being mindful and present while eating can enhance the satisfaction derived from meals. Paying attention to the flavors, textures, and enjoyment of food can make the eating experience more fulfilling, reducing the desire to eat more frequently.Balanced macronutrient distribution: Including a balance of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats in each meal can contribute to longer-lasting satiety. Protein, in particular, has been found to be highly satiating and can help individuals feel fuller for longer periods.Adaptation over time: The human body can adapt to different eating patterns. Over time, individuals who eat fewer meals may find that their bodies adjust and become accustomed to the chosen eating frequency, leading to reduced hunger between meals.
It's important to note that individual experiences and preferences may vary. The ability to manage hunger between meals can depend on factors such as metabolism, activity levels, and overall health. Consulting a healthcare professional or registered dietitian can provide personalized guidance on optimizing meal frequency and managing hunger effectively.

Can you write something that will make me feel the true size of infinity? | I will shove some philosophy here.
We are finite entities, we perceive the world around us with our 5 (or 6 or 7 as some would argue) finite and very, very , very limited senses. Our mind can make sense of things mostly in familiar terms. We have naver truly perceived nor can we ever truly perceive those exotic terms such as ‘'infinity’ or even the opposite of infinity (no, not the number ’0′ but nonexistence). Thus i would argue that the closest we can get to understanding such terms, would be to accept that they are undefined and incomprehensible by our limited (i would argue ‘'feeble’) minds.
However, my best effort to describe the idea of infinity bould be: unlimited, unbound, undefined.

Do pets watch TV? If so, do they get distracted by it and walk away when you call them? | I used to have 2 Cocker Spaniels, a brother/sister combo named Desi and Dolly. Although Desi didn’t care at all about the TV, Dolly would climb up on the loveseat placed closest to the tv whenever a nature/animal program came on. She would perch with her front legs on the arm of the furniture and watch closely the case scenes when a predatory animal was chasing down its prey. Dolly would began to whine when the predator brought its prey down and acted upset at that development. What was going through her little doggy mind I can not tell you, but it happened consistently over the years and only when a program about animals was on, especially concerning predators/prey.

As a stay-at-home parent, how much help do you get from your partner when running the home and looking after the kids? | My future husband is very helpful, we both cook, we dress & bathe our children, we both equally clean our home.
Even though my partner works very hard at work he still likes to help me out when he is at home.
He doesn’t expect me to cook him meals ready for when he’s home, as he knows I’ve been busy with our 3 sons. He has the leftovers in the fridge or he’ll just make himself something.

What are some things that only electrical and electronics engineers know, but most people don't? | COB!!!
It is a thing which when many people having No electronic background Question about it.
A common example is, if you had played these video games like mario, contra, duck hunt etc. (May vary for Original games)
and acciediently putting the video game cassette had opened that case :
(Mostly not on Nintendo games)
Or in Pocket Calculators :
that black blob like thing on chip ….confused!!
Is it an electronic component or just glue pasted to hide something??…still confused!
Coming to technical part you might find this thing in many electronics applications, above are is just a most familiar examples,
COB: Chip on Board
It is a technique to make chip on-board instead of putting IC’s, because it is cheap way to do so.
Lets take one and find out what inside it? or just a glue like thing.
here we go, It is a small chip like thing having many pins and connected to other connections
zooming in ,
Difference between IC and COB is just about size and casing,
that black material or epoxy resin isn’t the same material as that in IC cases but a glop-top technique. To avoid erasing of EPROMs because UV and light sensitive chip inside can be erased in many cases also black bodies dissipates heat in better way that’s why you’ll find them always black in colour.
This is used for :
Saving : You can bond IC and wires inside this resin, No casing for IC needed but For small series it it not cost effective usually beneficial in mass production of quantity about 10k~1M /year.Mechanical Protection : That black blob or epoxy resin it protects the IC with bonding mechanically.The bonding wires are very thin of about(10um of gold wire).Reverse Engineering Protection : well…it is not fool-proof the resin can be removed by heating and scratching but it is quite difficult to desolder that IC.

Is it true that Vlad the Impaler is a national hero in Romania and, if so, why is that the case? | because the economy of the country suffered at the hands of thieves. he restored order and brought industry back while getting rid of organized crime including among his own nobility.

What comes after video game graphics get as realistic as possible? | People say that the next will be some haptic feedback things like moving chairs for racing game or treadmill for FPS.
No way. Gamers are lazy. Couch potato. Minimal move throughout the day.

My partner of one month doesn’t like my therapy dog of 10 years. What should I do? | Your so called partner of one whole month is not worth diddly squat if he/she doesn’t like your trusted therapy dog of a whole 10 years. I’m sure the dog doesn’t like him/her either. One of them has to go and you know which one I mean!
Trouble is, you think that a ‘partner’ is hard to come by don’t you? And I fear that you’re going to make the wrong choice here. But this person will never live up to the hype in your head and you’ll spend the rest of your life regretting how you betrayed your REAL partner.
You’ll dump your dog and then you can sit back and wait for the next thing your ‘partner’ doesn’t like. Will it be a good friend? Will it be clothes you like? Will it be your sister or brother? Hello Meaghan (Duchess of Sussex) that’s what she did to Harry.
You can bet your bottom dollar that this is only the beginning of things your new ‘partner’ doesn’t like. And you’ll be dropping them all till one day you only have them. And that’s what they want. In the meantime I fear that they might not prove to be worth all the sacrifices they demand off you.
It sounds to me as if this person is a jealous so and so and can’t stand the competition even from a dog.

Besides this, I feel happy about spending quality time with my family and learning new things.

Who are some of the big hearted citizens of India? | I would like to name Kailash Satyarthi.
I came to know about this person today only when I was browsing dailyhunt news feed.
And while browsing I found this particular post.
Kailash Satyarthi is an Indian children's rights and education advocate and an activist against child labour. He founded the “Bachpan Bachao Andolan” in 1980 and has acted to protect the rights of more than 83,000 children from 144 countries.
In a joint rescue operation by Delhi police and Bachpan Bachao Andolan, 57 trafficked child labourers got a new leash of life and freedom on tuesday, May 9 2017.
We often witness such child labourers but rather than raising our voice, we choose to turn blind and in such a society considering this man as a hero is no wrongdoing.
Let us all support this kind human being with our appreciation towards his work.
Hats off to this man.

Can you live in SF Bay Area without a car? | I have lived in the Bay Area on and off for over 10 years without ever driving. I'm not really even an avid bicycler - yet. I'll confess it's getting more difficult to be a Non-Driver as i get older.
I've found a few things especially useful to have, know, or do:
Choose your neighborhood wisely.Before you choose where you're going to live, be sure to check the place out thoroughly from the perspective of a Non-Driver: Will you have roommates, first of all, to help you get around sometimes? Where are the nearest PubTrans stops? Is there a grocery store / drugstore / convenience store / cafe / coffee shop / whatever within walking distance? Biking distance? Are you OK with living on a hill? Is the area safe for people to walk around at night? Would you feel OK locking up your bike outside while shopping (etc) in the area? There are lots of important questions to ask yourself when choosing a new place, as a person who doesn't drive.
It's a lot easier if you live with roommates who drive.This is true anywhere if you don't drive - you can combine errands like grocery shopping with other people, eliminating awkward and frequent runs on PubTrans or a bike.
Get friendly with local maps - including specialized ones - like the useful Bike Maps that show the hills, and MUNI / ACTransit / BART route maps.If you didn't already know that certain sequences of streets in SF are named in mostly-alphabetical order (Anza, Balboa, Cabrillo...), this is just one of the many useful little things about the Bay that you can pick up from spending time with a local map. Also, you can probably never hope to understand the way roads converge and diverge in the East Bay without seeing it on a large scale.
Whether you are walking, biking, taking buses, or driving - you really should have at least one good map of the entire Bay Area. Try hanging one up in the bathroom where you can leisurely contemplate it - this worked wonders for one house i used to live in.
Own at least one bicycle, and know a place to get it serviced quickly near your home (or be able to DIY).I've been using a basic adult tricycle i bought online to get around mostly-flat Oakland, and it's been especially practical for leisurely cruises to the local farmer's markets. If you live in the City, you'll probably want something sleeker and with gears. Also, consider that you will probably want a bike option that can be carried on BART (Bikes on BART guide: http://www.bart.gov/guide/bikes/index.aspx).
Whatever you choose, you either need to know how to fix it yourself, or have a reliable local shop in mind for when the inevitable bash-up occurs. Don't forget to wear a helmet and use a solid lock.
Go ahead - Take a taxi.Sometimes it seems expensive to take a taxi home to the East Bay from SF after a long night, but consider the alternatives:
Assuming you can drive and have a car - drive yourself, pay a bridge toll, pay for gas, stay sober, and find parking. Oh, and make sure not to leave any valuables anywhere in sight.BART-a-rella: Head home before the stroke of midnight! (http://www.bart.gov/guide/latenight.aspx)Assuming you're willing to spend whatever's left of your night getting home, take the all-nighter 800 bus. (http://transit.511.org/accessible/providers/night.aspx)
A taxi will cost in the range of $30-$50 (plus tip) from downtown, SOMA, or the Mission to most of Oakland and south Berkeley, in my experience. There are also new services coming out with apps for your phone that let you pay variable rates for a hired car pickup. (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/02/technology/uber-a-car-service-smartphone-app-plans-cheaper-service.html)
After talking to friends who own cars and deal with driving them (especially across the bridge for a night out), it seems that ownership carries more expense and responsibility than the occasional taxi ride, by far.
Plan efficiently - Do all your errands at once.If you are used to having a car, you may be used to running to the store every time you need this or that for dinner or whatever, but when you don't drive, you learn to think differently. Know what shops are in close proximity to eachother and to the PubTrans stops you prefer. Sometimes it's easier for me to pick something up in SF than Oakland because a store is more accessible to a BART stop over there, or vice-versa.
Also, if you know you're going to need a taxi (or a friend driver) to help carry all those bags, make a good list and hit all the stops while you're out.
Online Shopping is your friend.When you don't drive, it can be really nice to have things shipped to your door, especially when you know exactly what you want. Think bulk groceries, toiletries you always use, cleaning supplies, pet food, etc.
In general, I believe it can be done! And happily.I've been living without driving in the Bay Area, happily, on and off for over 10 years - with a little help from my friends and what i consider to be an above-average PubTrans system. Your mileage may vary...

What are the best baby skin care products? | There are so many newborn baby brands in the market that it's difficult to choose. Also, each baby has a different type of skin and they react differently to different products. While my child responded very well to the tummy roll on by Mamaearth, she got very bad skin rashes from the Mamaearth lotion.
I like Cetaphil and Mothercare also, but sometimes I don't get a good deal online or products aren't available. Recently I have been trying some products from a natural product brand called Citta, and I'm really happy with their entire range. They have a shampoo, body wash, oil, powder and balm, and all of these have been very useful in my baby's newborn phase.
The Citta oil is amazing, very light for massaging and non-sticky. Similar for the balm- deep hydration especially in this dry winter, but not sticky like other body butters etc. The brand is making all products without toxins, parabens, allergens, sulphates and all the other bad chemicals as well. I would recommend the full Citta range for newborns for sure.

Could Data pass the Kobayashi Maru in Star Trek? | I’m gonna say no, or at least not conventionally.The Kobayashi Maru doesn’t actually have a win condition. It spawns in enemies endlessly.
You can however, theoretically beat so many enemies that it’s more than the Klingons could plausibly send in, but this is technically not “winning”.

What is forge welding? | Forge welding is a combination of forging and welding.
To forge is to shape heated metal by hammering it against a hard surface.
To weld is to fuse two pieces of metal together by melting them together.
So forge welding is the process that combines forging and welding- two pieces of metal heated to a very high temperature, that is placed in contact with each other, and is repeatedly beat with a hammer against an anvil until the two pieces fuse into one piece.

What do British conservatives think about such things as gun rights, ending abortion, ending gay marriage, and restoring the death penalty? | They don’t think anything at all. Being politicians, they tend to think about political things, which none of those are.
gun ‘rights’ is seen as an oxymoron.
aborting is a medical thing betwixt doctors and patients.
gay marriage is just ‘marriage’. Never really heard anyone want to put a stop to that, politician orotherwise.
Death penalty is something one reads about in history books. No developed nation dpes this. You do realise it’s the 21stC, right ?
Above is consistent across most of the population. It has nothing to do with politics.

How did aboriginal people not leave a bigger mark on the Australian landscape despite living here for over 60,000 years? | The aborigines worked with the planet, not worked against it.
Maybe we’ll become advanced enough to do that as well, some day.

Will Steam-Valve ever make another game again? I don't even care if it's Half Life, Portal, or anything. | “Counter-Strike 2” is currently in closed beta (I think?) and it looks amazing:
Otherwise, there was “Half-Life: Alyx” a while ago, but it’s VR-exclusive, and I think another company did most of the work. Still - awesome game, but sadly not many people have VR headsets.
If you do happen to have a VR headset, though, you should definitely play it - it’s as close as we will (probably) ever get to Half-Life 3.

Do you have a different opinion on climate change? | Climate change is a significant and complex global challenge that is caused by the release of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat and cause the Earth's temperature to rise, leading to a range of impacts such as more frequent and intense heatwaves, droughts, floods, sea-level rise, and ocean acidification, among others.
The scientific consensus is clear that climate change is happening, and that it is caused by human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and agriculture. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which is the leading international body for the assessment of climate change, has concluded that it is very likely that human activities are responsible for the observed warming of the Earth's climate since the mid-20th century.
To address [LINKED_TEXT: climate change] [URL: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cr531-PPMQP/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA], it is crucial that we take immediate and ambitious action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, transition to a low-carbon economy, and adapt to the changes that are already happening. This requires a collective effort from individuals, businesses, and governments around the world to prioritize sustainable practices and work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change.
[LINKED_TEXT: Ratna Nidhi Library on Instagram: "Is the weather truly getting worse? When it comes to global warming, dire predictions seem to be all we see or hear. Climatologists Patrick Michaels and Robert Balling Jr. explain why the news and information we receive about global warming have become so apocalyptic. The science itself has become increasingly biased, with warnings of extreme consequences from global warming becoming the norm. That bias is then communicated through the media, who focus on only extreme predictions. The authors compellingly illuminate the other side of the story, the science we aren't being told. This body of work details how the impact of global warming is far less severe than is generally believed and far from catastrophic.
