Why have there been so few images been released from the James Web Space Telescope? It's been fully operational almost a month now. | It seems to me that there are many more images than I would have expected. Normal telescope images take anywhere from 8 hours to 30 days just to capture one image. Then the image had to be processed. Then the image had to be analyzed to see what conclusions can be drawn. This can take 2 years. The JWST images have been ...

Would spending $100 dollars a day or week on lottery tickets increase your odds at hitting the jackpot? Or are the odds so low that someone buying 1 ticket has the same chance essentially? | The odds of winning Florida’s Lotto is 1 in 22,957,480. Drawings are held twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Let’s say you bought 100 tickets for every drawing. That’s 104 drawings, or 10,400 tickets, every year. If you did this starting on your 18th birthday and played until retirement at 65, that would be 488,800 tickets. That would give you a roughly 2% chance of winning one drawing.
It’s not impossible to live to be 120. So, let’s say you buy 100 tickets for each drawing for 100 years. That’s just north of a million tickets. That puts you around 4.5%. Still not particularly impressive.
It’s also a little deceptive. Each drawing is independent of all the others, meaning that you might win two or three times, assuming you keep playing. More than likely, though, you won’t win at all.
Consider that if you stop when you retire, that would be 47 years of gambling. At $10,400 per year, you would have spent $488,800 on your tickets. Yes, you would get something back in winnings, either in the form of free tickets or small prizes. It probably won’t be enough to make that money back. You might want to consider putting that money in a bank/retirement account or buying stock.

What would you tell someone to order for their first time in an Indian restaurant? | What should I try at an Indian restaurant if I’ve never been?
There are many varieties of Indian restaurant, even if a country has a different pallette.
I got lucky early in life in that a couple of relatives are vegetarian. They would go to some really amazing Indian restaurants as they trusted the food. So I got to try out some of these great places in Manchester with my mother and Uncle Dave. From early on I got to try popadoms, Bombay duck, various wet curries, chicken tikka and some of those amazing Indian desserts.
A lot of people think of curry and some kind of chicken napalm surprise which gets washed down with gallons of lager. There is so much variety.
Ideally you want to try something that is typical of the cuisine and you can eat without pain. This is probably about 95% of most menus. If you want a real treat then a thali, which is a mixed tray of various small dishes. You get bread, rice to share amongst the various other plates on the tray. Small dishes help you take down a few flavours and then, when you come back, you can try more of that style or get to find your own feet.
If you have a specific dietary requirement then Indian food is very respectful of that. I try and eat meat free a couple of times a week and love an Indian. Something like a starter or chick pea curry in a fried flat bread called a puri is great. Maybe even a few starters just to make a whole meal, like the thali. Indian breads are worth working your way through. Take the innocent naan bread. This goes from plain to chilli, from meat stuff to cheese and onion stuffed, garlic naan and peshwari with raisins and coconut. A crispy tubular, kind of pancake, called a dosa is a breakfast favourite of mine with a potato curry thrown up the centre.
Lentil dishes, seafood, mutton, beef, cauliflower, okra, potatoes etc.
Indian food, if you find the right places, can be very strong on a regional dish. There is a complete different between a Goan vindaloo (often pork) and one from elsewhere. The first one has some kind of Portugese translation which is different to other dishes and is quite pungent but not volcanic like the more well know vindaloo.
One good tip I learned, real common sense, was to go dining with Indians. I have had some serious laughs and amazing food when someone else spots something they eat back in India.

What is the difference between the three types of metamorphism? | Thermal Metamorphism — Thermal Metamorphism occurs when the transformation mainly takes place under the influence of high temperatures.The heat maybe due to the hot magma or the friction of the overlying layers.
Dynamic Metamorphism — Dynamic Metamorphism mainly takes place because of pressure at a great depth within the earth's crust. Chemically active gases while pushing upward change their chemical composition. Under the conditions of this change the minerals get arranged in a series of bands known as foliation.
Regional Metamorphism — Due to the mountain building process the rocks are buried deep inside the earth's crust. The intense pressure of the overlying rocks and the weigyif the large scale earth movements change such rocks . When a small area is affected by such a change it is known as local or contact metamorphism. This happens when hot magma affects the moving rocks or layers and these areas are transformed into metamorphic rocks.

What is the best way to start learning PHP? | For a front end dev I think PHP is wrong choice as you may be expected to do an app that is like a twitter or something which processes a lot of requests per second. Here PHP sucks hard and you will be better with mainstream Node.js or hippie but even better GO lang. Python is always a choice but I mever really liked it.
If you want to learn PHP anyway, then pick a framework like Laravel (i think this one is powerful and easiest), or Symphony. This 2 frameworks are ruling PHP environment, but no matter what its still a PHP.

Does USPS offer a virtual address? | No.
To obtain a virtual address in the US you need to go to a private company that acts as a Commercial Mail Receiving Agency (CMRA). They will need to verify your ID and have you full out a USPS form giving them permission to deliver to your mail to this CMRA instead of to an official USPS mailing address.
There are many different providers of CMRA related services, offering many different mixtures of services at widely varying rates. Pretty much all of them, however, have very strong presence on the internet, so researching them is fairly easy. Even the sign up process and ID verification can almost always be handled completely online.

Do people in the United States actually believe that gun reform will cause them to lose their right to own a weapon? | No sir. Anything outside the amendment processes outlined in The Constitution is treason and it would very likely cause us to get some new elected officials but I will have my guns until they pry them empty from my cold dead hands. If you have not studied Stalin, Hitler, and Mao, you need to do so. If you need a more recent example look at Ukraine. Unarmed people are targets. If you don't believe it you are the fool your government is hoping you to to be.

Have you left California and if so, why? | I'm planing on leaving in 2026, when I retire. The reasons
High prices. Seems like everything here costs more. It has to do with much of the following.
High taxes and government fees. Gas tax, sales tax, vehicle registration, income tax. Tied into that…
Mismanagement of my taxes. Monies earmarked for specific projects (gas tax, high speed rail bond money, etc) funneled into unrelated projects, or changed after voter approval.
“Progressive” ideology. Be it sanctuary cities, no bail release, early release from jail, not providing treatment or meaningful help to the homeless, everybody in jail is a victim of society, etc. I'm no bleeding heart. But we need to provide help to the homeless, but treat the reason they got there, (drugs, mental illness, lack of job skills, physical medical issues, etc). Not just give them a free hotel room and hope for the best. Sometimes you need a kick in the ass or forced into something to make you realize hey I can get off the street.

How prevalent is cheating at MIT? | Not Very Much
I’ll start off by saying that I graduated long ago in undergrad 2002, but cheating really wasn’t very prevalent in my day. This is probably mostly because of the complexity of the tests especially as the courses get more advanced.
Most classes exams were worth roughly 90% of your grade. Problem sets at most were worth 10%. They encouraged people to “collaborate” for the P sets, and lots of people including my would frequently just copy off of another student, but this was such a small part of the grade which was based on a curve anyway.
However, what needs to be stressed is the structure and complexity of the exams. These aren’t multiple choice or one word or number answers not by a long shot. I was course 10, chemical engineering to non MIT people. Pretty much every single exam I took in the department was open books open notes. At first glance that might seem easy, but trust me, an open book open notes test is the hardest test you can take! They literally throw everything at you. How is it even possible to cheat? Your friend can’t whisper the answer either it would take them minutes just to explain and even if they could, it would be hard to even understand if you were lost.
Even other departments without open book/notes tests the mere complexity of the questions makes it nearly impossible to copy an answer or have some sort of cheat sheet. Biochemistry wasn’t open book but you could bring a formula sheet and study guide. Answers were usually in individual blue books, and the work was how you got the credit. So once again very hard to cheat.
People did try to game the system in other ways, however. Back in the day first year was pass/fail, everyone would try to take as many hard classes as possible so a C would be worth as much as an A. Lots of people would enroll in a introductory foreign language class in a language they were already quite fluent. Things like that occurred to artificially inflate your GPA. But all in all, even though classes were on a distribution curve, people weren’t all that competitive (outside of the premeds) and it was really a collaborative environment. People were cool and helpful.

My partner of one month doesn’t like my therapy dog of 10 years. What should I do? | Just remember this. Until you decide to find a new home for your dog while you are alone. It's possible your choice is being swayed. And the moment this happens. You already know you are in the wrong place. Your partner for one month. Isn't even your partner. Just because your short term human can talk. Doesn't make him special. And if you release your dog please adopt him to me. I won't betray him.

A 500 ft. train travelling 500 ft per minute must travel through a 500 ft long tunnel. How long will it take the train to travel through the tunnel? | Whn the train travels throgh the tunnel it travels (length of the train + length of the tunnel)
Here, its 500 + 500 = 1000ft
So time taken to travel the tunnel = distance/speed = 100/500 = 2 minutes

Every year, the top 5 mutual funds changes. How can we select in a particular fund for a longer period of 15+ years? | Top funds will change every month - I have been analysing mutual funds for over 10 years and conclude that Top 5 Mutual Funds keep on changing every month. You can check my earlier answers on mutual funds, many of which provide a list of best mutual funds for that month and the list is different almost every month.
This happens because stock markets are very dynamic and stock prices depend on many factors. So selecting mutual funds is always going to be a difficult task, if we are focusing on the short term outcome.
Returns average out over the long term - As your outlook is over 15 years, it is important to note over the long period, the returns of most categories of funds tend to move towards the average. In the equity segment, it is not only the timing or the selection but also the period of investment which is important.
When you invest in a fund, you should wait for at least a year to see if the returns of the fund is higher than the average of that category or not. If it has been higher, continue to invest. If it is not performing better, stop investing in that fund and shift to the ones that are performing better. This exercise should be car...

A little backstory, when I was a child, elementary school child, we used to have assignment to draw our country’s map with only using grid as guidelines. I grew up liking it and thought of, wow, what a beautiful country we have. Do you think it’s like the Mediterranean of South East Asia?
In fact this is how we perceive our world just like the European’s back then “in the middle of land” — Mediterrania, while we Indonesians have our own word, Nusantara — the other islands (than Java), or the land in between.

Who are some of the big hearted citizens of India? | Meet this man - Azhar Maqsusi
Azhar Maqsusi. a 38-year-old man from Hyderabad, offers free food to around 100-150 men, women, and children daily. He is doing this from the past 5 years, without any help from others. He is not a rich person, but has been feeding the poor under the Dabeerpura flyover in Old Hyderabad from 2012. When asked what inspired him to do this goo deed, he responded that he himself knows what it is to go hungry, and wants no one to face the same situation.
Azhar, owning a Plaster of Paris interior design business in Hyderabad, started feeding the poor when he first encountered a physically handicapped woman begging near the railway station in 2012. Initially, his wife used to cook food for around 15 people and he distributed it near the flyover daily at 1PM. Today he feeds nearly 150 people and spends nearly Rs.2500 daily from his pocket to feed the poor with 25 kg rice, 2 kg pulses, one liter of oil and spices and ensures no one goes hungry.
Today, many of his friends have joined the cause. He says homeless people should be clothed and fed, not given money, since many of them use it to get drunk. Azhar plans to continue feeding the homeless, and ensure that anyone who comes to him gets at least one meal a day.

What's the relationship between ancient Macedonia and Greece? Are Macedonians Greek (not North Macedonia)? | The relationship between ancient Macedonia and Greece is a complex historical topic that has been a subject of scholarly debate and discussion.
Ancient Macedonia was a region located in the northern part of the Greek peninsula, and it was home to the ancient Macedonian people, who were an ethno-linguistic group related to other ancient Greek city-states. The ancient Macedonian kingdom, under the rule of the Argead dynasty, rose to prominence in the 4th century BCE under the leadership of figures such as King Philip II and his son Alexander the Great. Alexander the Great went on to create a vast empire that extended from Greece to Egypt and India, spreading Greek culture and language across many regions.
The relationship between ancient Macedonia and the rest of Greece is a complex issue due to various factors, including political, cultural, and linguistic aspects. Some scholars argue that the ancient Macedonians should be considered as Greeks, as they shared many cultural, linguistic, and religious similarities with other Greek city-states. Ancient Macedonian language was considered a dialect of Greek, and many aspects of Macedonian culture and religion were similar to those of other Greek city-states.
However, there are also debates about the distinct identity of the ancient Macedonians, with some arguing that they had their own unique culture and were distinct from other Greek city-states. The issue of whether the ancient Macedonians were Greek or not is still a matter of scholarly discussion and interpretation, and opinions may vary among historians and researchers.
It's important to note that the modern country of North Macedonia, which gained independence from Yugoslavia in 1991, is a separate nation from ancient Macedonia and modern Greece. The naming dispute between Greece and North Macedonia has been a complex issue, with Greece objecting to the use of the name "Macedonia" by its northern neighbor due to concerns over potential territorial claims and cultural appropriation. The issue was resolved through diplomatic negotiations, and in 2019, North Macedonia agreed to change its name to North Macedonia, which was accepted by Greece.
In summary, the relationship between ancient Macedonia and Greece is a complex historical topic, and opinions may vary among scholars. While the ancient Macedonians shared many cultural and linguistic similarities with other Greek city-states, the issue of their identity as Greeks or a distinct culture is still a matter of scholarly debate. It's important to consider the historical and cultural context and consult reputable sources for a comprehensive understanding of this topic.

How often does the team that drafts the number one pick in the NFL fail that pick by mismanagement and lack of personal and coaching support? | Many times when a 1st pick in the NFL draft fails it’s not due to his team management or coaching staff it’s more that playing in college is far different from playing in the NFL. Players are not only bigger faster & stronger then in college they have far superior of a skills set then rookies coming in, u mainly see a big drop in talent when it’s a QB & is facing better linemen than in college. Most that fail can’t take the pressure of the pro’s or live up to there own potential they set for themselves & struggle to adapt.

Why are Malaysia and Indonesia different countries? | The answer is simple, the two nation had never neven united. Indonesia is a large archipelago formed through colonization, its islands contain many kingdoms and cultural groups that was never united. Malaysia too never are united with indonesia and so does the philippines.
Indonesia basically is former dutch east indies and its national language, bahasa indonesia is dutch influenced. The dutch adopted the language because they think of it as a more convinient language to rule native indonesian. But in its process it absorbed huge amount of dutch words. So many dutch words are mistaken as english due to its germanic nature. Despite of this majority of indonesian have retained their own language and dialect.
People think both have similar culture when it doesnt, indonesia have hundreds of ethnic groups with distinctive culture. Some may have been affliated to the malays, but not all. Beside malaysia have more chinese indian creole influences, while indo is mixture of various ethnic united under one banner.

If dishwasher soap dissolves fat and fat dissolves capsaicin, then does dishwasher soap dissolve capsaicin, and if not, then could one get capsaicin to sediment by putting fat with capsaicin in dishwasher soap? | Dishwasher “detergent” is mostly just strong alkali, which combines chemically with the oils and fats on your dirty dishes, producing soap! The reaction is actually called saponification.
The capsaicin left as a red stain on your plastic utensils will dissolve in oil, or indeed in neat washing-up liquid, and can then easily be rinsed off. If, however, you just put the stained items in the dishwasher, the fats and oils get washed away too quickly, leaving the capsaicin behind.
Just use a little neat washing-up liquid, and rinse progressively with hot water.

Are the Sami genetically closer to Europeans or East Asians? | They ARE Europeans. So obviously the answer would be genetically closer to Europeans, since that is what they are.
Update: Here’s an actual study that claims their median percentage of Asian influence is 6%. (Thus the rest or approximately 94% being European):
“This study affirms an east Asian contribution to the predominantly European-derived Saami gene pool. Using model-based individual ancestry analysis, the median estimated percentage of the genome with east Asian ancestry was 6% (first and third quartiles: 5 and 8%, respectively).”

Why don't people do their homework and study it out to realize Obama is a communist? | By comparison of his policies with the rest of the world, Obama is actually right of center. So is Joe Biden. So is Pelosi. So is Pete Buttigieg. Sanders and Warren are basically centrists. Robert Reich and Paul Krugman are slightly left-of-center.
I am always amused and occasionally perplexed at American conservatives’ ignorance of how things are done in the rest of the world.

Do autopilot systems in some way diminish the natural skills and reflexes of pilots? | It’s a bit more nuanced than that.
Yes, automation can result in a loss of hand flying skills, or worse, can hide the lack of them, but in general hand flying is still the norm when flying arrivals and departures, which tend to be the more demanding (but not more exhausting) phases of a flight.
What we gain by having the FMS, autopilot, and autothrottles is well worth the price. Not having to hand fly the aircraft at the flight levels makes it easier to stay ahead of the aircraft, monitor the progress of the flight, make considered decisions regarding weather deviations, and deal with mechanical issues. During descent from the flight levels it give us time to brief the approach properly, instead of trying to talk about our plans while trying to fly the airplane.

What do British conservatives think about such things as gun rights, ending abortion, ending gay marriage, and restoring the death penalty? | Our conservatives are like what you in America call left wing socialists for a start. American conservatives are what we used to call Nazis. Racist, homophobic, religious zealots, bigoted against everything they can be, armed to the teeth by their own fears, ignorant morons we wouldn't trust to sit the right way on a toilet.
Gun rights, only those who need a gun, can prove fitness, crime free, medically and mentally sound, following a police check, with proper storage, insurance, and training, and then simple weapons, hunting rifle, revolver, or basic shotgun for pest control, target shooting, certain other circumstances. Otherwise join the Army, and they're even more restrictive on who gets one, especially with bullets. Upside is that we had 0 mass shootings in June. You've had more this month, only July 1st to July 5th than we've had in years. Gun control works.
Abortion. Woman's right to choose, end of discussion. The duty of the State is to make sure that it is done safely, with adequate care for the individual, respecting her rights and physical and mental health. No judgement involved, no religion involved. If incest or rape are involved then the Police and Social Services can be informed to help prevent further abuse.
If people from the LGBTQII+ community want to get married then good for them, great for businesses, wedding supply companies, wedding venues, honeymoon destinations, clothing manufacturers, friends, family, the happy couple, and potentially therapists and divorce lawyers. Why is this even an issue? It's not even political, it's just their rights, why shouldn't anyone be free to marry someone else?
The death penalty, if 100% proven, caught in the act, incontrovertible evidence, then I’d support euthanasia and organ, fluid, harvesting. Check their blood type, bone marrow, etc., if need be detox them brutally, then harvest what is needed. Everything! At least they’d be some use then. I’d also bring back a life sentence means life, not 14 years like it does now in the majority of cases. For repeat offender criminals when they plead and “they ask for 80 other offences to be taken into consideration “ and get one year fir each to be served concurrently, I’d change the to consecutively for persistent recidivists.
You missed out arming the Police as a matter of course.
That said, I'm not a conservative, I was once described as an extreme moderate.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said "Going by track record, I’d feel safer in a bathroom with a trans woman than a powerful male executive any day of the week." What do you think about this? | AOC is delusional. She consistently lies and when confronted brushes it off. She is constantly bringing up her “sexual assault” as if that has anything to do with any of the speeches she delivers or the subject matter. She’s sexist and will virtue signal whenever she gets the chance. She and the rest of the liberal agenda/media want to spread the stereotype that all men are evil, especially the “white ones”. As a woman, I find her deplorable.

Are scaffolding considered as a truss/frame? | In the classical sense, scaffolding is not often thought of as a truss or frame construction. Trusses and frames are structural components created to support and stabilize a building or structure by carrying and distributing loads. They are often constructed from stiff elements joined together in a predetermined pattern, like beams and columns.On the other side, scaffolding is a transient structure utilized in construction, upkeep, or repair work. Workers can use it as a platform to perform jobs, move supplies, and access elevated regions. Tubes, couplers, boards, and brackets are only a few of the components used in the assembly of scaffolding systems. They can be easily assembled, disassembled, and reconfigured because they are made to be flexible, adjustable, and modular.

Do you think Mark Cuban would make a good POTUS? | Whether you like Mark Cuban or not, it would not be a good idea to have another rich TV celebrity run again.

Why does everyone hate Captain Marvel for squeezing that guy’s hand? He was rude to her. | Probably because she is magnitudes stronger than him, and likely broke every bone in his hand, all for the crime of just being an ass.
She could have just pushed him over and be done at that and he’d still have gotten the message.
For anyone bringing up the “Terminator” defence in Terminator 2. Theres a distinct difference.
The Terminator is a KILLING MACHINE on a mission to do whatever needs to be done to achieve it, and has no issues with killing until its ordered not to by John Connor.
Captain Marvel is not a killing machine.

What are some first date tips? | Sure! First dates can be exciting and nerve-wracking at the same time. Here are some tips to make your first date
Authenticity is key. Pretending to be someone you're not won't lead to a genuine connection. Be honest and let your date get to know the real you.
Pick a location that allows for conversation and interaction. A cozy cafe, a park, or a casual restaurant are good options. Avoid loud or crowded places that might make it difficult to talk.
Dress in a way that makes you feel confident and comfortable. It's important to make a good impression, but don't overdo it. Dress according to the venue and the activity you have planned.
Being on time shows that you respect your date's time and are eager to meet them. If you anticipate being late, let them know in advance.
Pay attention to what your date is saying and show genuine interest. Ask questions and engage in the conversation. This demonstrates that you care about getting to know them.
Be present and avoid distractions. Keep your phone on silent or in your pocket, so you're not tempted to check it constantly.
Keep the conversation light and positive. Avoid talking about past relationships, controversial topics, or negative experiences. Focus on getting to know each other's interests and hobbies.
While it's good to share information about yourself, avoid oversharing personal or sensitive details on the first date. Save deeper discussions for later when you've built more trust.
Nonverbal cues can speak volumes. Maintain eye contact, smile, and use open body language to convey that you're open and interested.
Treat your date with kindness and respect. Be polite to everyone you encounter during the date, including waitstaff and others.
If things are going well, it's okay to extend the date, but it's also fine to keep it short and leave room for anticipation for the next meeting.
Let the conversation flow naturally. Don't pressure your date or yourself to make immediate decisions about the future of the relationship.
Not every first date leads to a second one, and that's okay. If you feel there's no connection, be polite and honest about your feelings.
Remember that first dates are about getting to know each other and seeing if there's potential for a deeper connection. Stay relaxed, be yourself, and have fun!

Do you continue to greet neighbors who never say hello first? | Do I continue to greet neighbors who never say hello first (or how about never say hello) ?
Let’s take the neighbors on the right-hand side.
Okay, I once dated their youngest daughter, but at the time they didn’t seem to mind. Still, at one point in our relationship, Ebba mentioned “the trees” and in hindsight, it wasn’t irony nor sarcasm. It was a promise.
Then, a couple of years later, I came back from the States and one of my Christmas firs had been cut from the middle. When I asked Ebba’s father — the neighborhood bully — why he did that, he answered:
“Because it was too tall. And you’d better be glad I cleaned it up.”
So much for educated discussions with my almost-future-father-in-law. But many such awful confrontations would follow, unfortunately.
The last one — and definitely the most fierce — was a direct confrontation with them (the awfully frustrated retired neighbors who HATE trees and whose daughter I’d almost MARRIED) — and a justice of peace they had called in order to have all or trees — our 40-year-old birches and our magnificent 50-year-old cedar — cut.
I will not tell you what happened.
But let’s say they shouted, harassed, threatened, bullied, became aggressive, touched-then-pushed, and much much more. And then even more.
We didn’t say a word.
In the end, not a single tree was cut. They were told —
“That trees grow on the countryside, and that leaves consequently fall in gardens. That they were city people.”
And those were the words of the judge !
But that doesn’t answer your question, which was:
“Do you continue to greet neighbors who never say hello first ?”
Answer: we even post them a fucking Christmas card — every single year.
With greetings from the Caynes.

Did Reebok use a Lewis Hine photograph in their advertising? I've read articles mentioning it, but never seen the image. | Yes, they used it. This photograph was part of Lewis Hine line of work as the photographer of the US Child Labor Committee in 1910's.
The appalling conditions in which children worked shocked him. At the time, child labor made up 20% of the workforce and 50% of its conditions included hazardous work.
Ultimately, his images helped convince the federal government to enact and enforce stricter laws protecting children in the workplace.

Where can I invest? | There are a number of platforms that promise excellent crypto investing returns. However, only a small percentage of them are true.
When investing, as an investor, you must ensure that your cash do not vanish suddenly.
Crypto is clearly the future of finance, and people all around the world are capitalizing on this by investing as much as they can, since bitcoin's value continues to rise and shows no indications of slowing down anytime soon.
Cryptocurrencies have a bright future ahead of them. You can look at the progress of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies, or you can look at the number of new projects that have been formed with many interesting ideas, such as ETH SHIBA, a project aimed at the benefit of each investment. These are the names for which I have high hopes.

Has any programmer ever been paid per line of code? | It’s probably happened, and it’s a very bad idea. Any attempt to minimize or maximize the number of lines of code will happen at the expense of one or more other desirable qualities of the code, such as correctness, readability, testability, maintainability, etc.
I can easily take a class hierarchy and increase the total number of lines of code by moving code from parent classes to all of the child classes. It’ll be duplicated in each of them rather than shared through the parent class.
At the other end of the spectrum, I can make most code shorter, within limits. There are almost always some intermediate variables that can be eliminated, at the expense of clarity.
Lines of code can be a useful metric. You can gauge how much effort you’re going to have to expend to do some work based on the size of the relevant portion of the codebase. You can make a guess at how difficult a particular method will be to understand based in part on its length.

Without appealing to emotion or using ad hominem attacks, how can I convince conservatives that gun regulation is a good thing? | You can't, because neither progressives nor conservatives can be convinced of anything by reason. You could get conservatives to ban guns if you served your proposal to them “wrapped in the flag and carrying the cross,” as Trump has proven, but you certainly wouldn't want to sully your virgin eyes and ears with their heresy either, so that seems off the table.
After all, why shouldn't the stupid peasants have government agents actually threaten them with guns, simply for daring merely to possess their own?

How can I get a call history of any number? | It is generally not possible for an individual to find the call history of a mobile phone number unless they have access to the phone or the account associated with the phone number. Call history is considered private and personal information, and companies that provide phone service are not allowed to disclose it without a valid legal reason or with a customer's consent.
There are some exceptions to this rule, such as if a person is being investigated for a crime or if the phone number is associated with a business and the owner of the business requests the call history. In these cases, a court order or subpoena may be required.
Additionally, some third-party companies may claim to offer the service of providing call history, but many of them are scams or may not be able to provide accurate information. It's important to be cautious of these type of services and not to provide any personal information or payment unless you're sure about the authenticity of the company or service

What high protein Indian vegetarian food sources are available for people that go to the gym and want to bulk up while also losing fat? | Being a vegetarian it is little bit difficult to get complete protein / lean protein daily.

Is I IV V progression valid for other scales like pentatonic, diminished scale or hijaz maqam scale? | The 1/4/5 progression is a diatonic “leading progression” where the 1 chord is being either led to or from , when progressions are designed they most frequently repeat so the progression you mentioned would go on to a 1 chord after the 5 chord . Now this progression is a very basic progression that has been used for centuries in different musical styles and circumstances . The pentatonic scale has no 4th degree so using chord 4 is out . The diminished scale can only yield diminished chords . The Hijaz maqam scale is to a western ear the same as the 5th mode of the harmonic minor , and could be used as a 1/4/5 progression with chord 1 being major , 4 being minor and 5 being major .

Do people in the United States actually believe that gun reform will cause them to lose their right to own a weapon? | The UK, Australia, New Zealand, and soon Canada all allowed their gun rights to pretty much go away by government decree.

Have you ever been overcome or incapacitated by a hot sauce and if so, what was it? | Yes, I have, and retain a vivid memory of the event. I was at a street food festival in my town about 10 years ago with my young son (then aged around six), which featured a chilli stall, with an array of about twenty chilli sauces in little pots with small cubes of bread on the side to dip and taste. They were clearly labelled, left to right, as mild to lethal. Being rather partial to chilli, I was browsing the exotic range of sauces, when I was distracted by an acquaintance who had stopped for a chat. When he left, I returned to the stall and… started accidentally from the wrong end, taking a large dollop of the “lethal” sauce. My head exploded. I was left breathless, coughing and spluttering, and in considerable pain. I remember grabbing my son’s ice-cream and cramming it into my face. The effect subsided after about ten minutes, and I bought my son - who seemed unsure whether to be appalled or amused at the strange antics of his dad - another ice-cream.
He still remembers it too - last year, for my birthday, he bought me a bottle of something called “Mad Dog Inferno”. It’s still sitting in the back of a cupboard, although I have tried it (a couple of drops is actually quite pleasant, but I figured it’d take me about twenty years to reach the end of the bottle).

If there are big cats, why are there no big dogs? | There are some large breeds of dogs, such as the Great Dane, Irish Wolfhound, and St. Bernard, but they are not as large as big cats like lions, tigers, and leopards. This is because dogs have been bred and selected for different traits over the centuries, while cats have evolved to be larger and more powerful predators. Dogs were bred to be more docile and friendly, while cats were bred to be more independent and self-sufficient.

What is the difference between Angular and AngularJS? | Angular and AngularJS are both web application development frameworks created by Google, but there are some key differences between the two:
Architecture: AngularJS is built on the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture, while Angular is built on the Component-Based architecture. This means that Angular provides a more modern and flexible approach to application development.Language: AngularJS uses JavaScript for development, while Angular uses TypeScript. TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that includes additional features like static typing, making it easier to write and maintain complex applications.Performance: Angular is designed to be faster and more efficient than AngularJS, thanks to features like the Ahead-of-Time (AOT) compilation and a more optimized change detection mechanism.Size: Angular is a larger framework than AngularJS, which means that it may take longer to learn and set up. However, Angular's larger size also means that it provides more built-in features and functionality.Syntax: Angular's syntax has changed significantly from AngularJS, which means that developers will need to learn a new syntax to work with Angular.
Overall, Angular provides a more modern and flexible approach to application development, with better performance and a more optimized change detection mechanism. However, AngularJS may still be a good choice for smaller applications or projects that require a simpler architecture and syntax.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said "Going by track record, I’d feel safer in a bathroom with a trans woman than a powerful male executive any day of the week." What do you think about this? | This is where I strongly disagree with her - 1st while I’ve never been a women’s restroom with any employee this feeds the narrative that all corporate leaders are greedy money grubbing misogynists' who seek to dominate their employees in general and women especially. I did however “guard” a men's room door (the ladies room was locked) at 4:30 am for a female fellow business traveler after we were delayed some ungodly number of hours and that was even before her request - all were unscathed.
For the record I have no issue with transgender women using the ladies room - or transgender men using the men's room.
However I think her loathing of Corporate America is a bit pandering in this case.

Is there a party similar to Indian National Congress in Pakistan? A party of traitors? | Not really.
Only India is lucky to have the Gandhi family. When we have this family we dont need Pakistan or China.
This one family can do more harm to the country.
External forces can be handled, it is difficult when the enemy is actually within

I'm building a racing simulator (pc) and I want to use a VR headset but I don't know what I need. I think I don't need one with room sensors, or do I and what are my possibilities? | Hello, Live Animation company is an expert in augmented reality development, not virtual. That is why your question should be forwarded to the VR developers.

Are there any mean Canadians? | Let me tell you this story:
A friend of my husband has a police officer as a friend. One day he asked him if there were corrupt cops in the force.
The policeman answered this: “20% of the population is corrupt. Police officers are part of the population. Draw your own conclusions”.
Canadians are renowned to be “nice” people. However, like in any other place in the World, your nationality is not a guarantee of anything.
So yes, there are mean Canadians ! Hope it’s only a small minority !

What is the difference between inductive and transductive learning? | According to standard definitions,
Induction is reasoning from observed training cases to general rules, which are then applied to the test cases.
Transduction is reasoning from observed, specific (training) cases to specific (test) cases.
Let us understand this from the perspective of machine learning-
Inductive learning is nothing but the principle behind the supervised machine learning algorithms where a model tries to build a relationship between the feature variables and target variable by examining the hidden patterns in the train data. Although the model is exposed to a restricted scope of the training data, the learning of the model will be according to a generic nature of data such that it can predict the value of any data point from an unlabelled dataset (test dataset). This kind of learning is termed inductive learning. It is to be noted here that the model is not exposed to the test data during the learning phase and is only provided with the training data for the learning purpose.
In transductive learning, both training and testing data set is exposed to the model in the learning phase itself. The model tries to find any information about the pattern in the combined dataset (training + testing) and later uses this information for predicting the values of the unlabelled testing data points.
Let us see an example for both of them-
Example – Inductive learning
Imagine that we have a classification problem in which we have to predict whether a person is a male or female. We have a training dataset like this –
The green-colored circles are labeled as men and red-colored circles are labeled as women. We have trained a machine learning model to this data and later the test data points were introduced.
The blue-colored circles are the test data points-
Since the model is already got trained with a machine learning algorithm, we can use that model to predict these unseen data points. We got the results like these-
This is nothing but a classic example of Inductive learning.
Example – Transductive learning
Let us consider that we have a semi-supervised problem to predict whether a person is male or female. The problem with semi-supervised learning is that all of the data points in the dataset will not be labeled.
Imagine that our data points look like this-
Here, we can see that some of the data points are labeled as men (green color) and some of the data points are labeled as women (red color) but there are some data points that remain unlabelled (white color). Instead of splitting data as training and testing set as an inductive learning approach, we can build a model in the entire dataset using all the available data points (labeled and unlabelled).
There are several algorithms for this purpose like label propagation, label spreading, Partitioning transduction, Agglomerative transduction, etc.
Let us look at the pseudo-code of agglomerative transduction algorithm-
Finally, we will get the output like this-
Hence, we were able to label all the unlabelled data points.
In summary-
Inductive learning trains the model with labeled data points and tries to predict the label of unlabeled data points. However, transductive learning trains the entire data set and tries to predict the label of unlabeled data points.In inductive learning, if a new unlabelled data point is getting introduced then we can use the already trained model for the prediction. However, in transductive learning, we may need to retrain the entire model.Transductive learning is computationally expensive than inductive learning.
Hope it helped you !!!
