What is the best defence against ransomware? | Hi. I have tried many antivirus programs, for example Kaspersky, Bitdefender and Norton.
I can safely say that these are the best Antivirus programs. But Bitdefender is the program that beats all Antivirus software.
But of course they are paid Antivirus but of course there is a 30 day trial for Bitdefender and Kaspersky, but unfortunately there is no free trial for Norton at the moment, so there is a free trial but it's only 7 days and it asks for your credit card details.
If you don't want to pay then I highly recommend Avast.
Hope I have helped!
Have a nice day!

What is sprint planning? | A sprint planning meeting ceremony is meaningful because it aligns the production team with the commodity owner. Like other relationships, coordination and consistency are needed in the one among you and your team. And what good strategy to take the opportunity to relax down to assure the staff knows the goals and they can do it?
Here are 5 steps you can take any time you have a sprint preparation meeting.
Step 1: Evaluate Your Product Roadmap
An agile sprint is aimed at delivering improved applications. Yet it is said better than finished. When you’re knee-deep in code changes, it’s simple to lose vision of the bigger image. How do you do the correct thing about what you’re concentrating on?
As the product owner, you must still have a high-level vision of the work in mind. You have to check the project roadmap and urge critical questions before discussing or doing some form of sprint preparation.
Are you designing features that drive your vision for the product forward? Can you have a view of the work, or are you just responding to noisy consumers? The first step in sprint preparation is to decide where you want to be in 6 months, a year, or longer, not just after this sprint.
Step 2: Have an Updated List of User Stories Before the Sprint Planning Meeting
In an ideal, transparent environment, the team will pick up the words you have written about users a month ago and quickly start working on them. That’s rarely the case.
Your users would have been requesting for many functionalities to be added to your product after your last update. You will have to take in all these factors to make adjustments to the customer stories to make sure they are tested before heading into the preparation meeting for sprints.
Now the dilemma most teams have is, “how many customer stories are we going to update?” The perfect scenario is to update them all. But, unless the product is relatively new and thin, that is an unlikely feat.
Step 3: Meeting Arrangements
Send the invite and make sure that all your teammates are able to attend the meeting without any inconvenience.
Print the target of the sprint and position it somewhere conspicuous in the conference space. Have freely available sticky notes in various colors.
Write down team speed in bold letters. Write down a reference rate (agreed upon by everyone), which may be the last sprint speed or an average of the previous three sprints. It will help if you use a comparison velocity of 8 story points per programmer per sprint if it’s the first sprint for your team.
Ensure that it is obvious what each sticky color reflects. For starters, green is for stories about people, blue is for tasks, and purple is for bugs. Get the stories written on the stickies and place them in preference order on the wall. Be sure to do the same with remote teams, like in the sprint or backlog.
Also, arrange light refreshments or coffee and make sure that the environment is comfortable.
Step 4: Utilize Data and Expertise to Supercharge Your Sprint Planning Conference
The sprint preparation meeting(s) will set the tone for the following few working weeks or months. The more planning you can do in advance, the better.
That’s why the [LINKED_TEXT: Scrum Guide] [URL: https://www.scrum.org/resources/scrum-guide] recommends timeboxing the sprint preparation meeting for a month-long sprint to just 8 hours. Your schedules should be changed accordingly for faster sprints. Your scrum master is accountable for ensuring these discussions happen and the team is sticking to the list.
Step 5: Collaboratively Plan a Sprint Backlog
It’s time to worry about the “how” you’re going to do it with a sprinting target in mind.
Sprint Backlog is a list of several user stories that you have updated in the previous steps and predicted. The challenge is to find a list of user accounts, assignments, and glitches that can help you accomplish the goal and can be achieved within the sprint’s span.
The team must choose the sprint things and scale of the sprint backlog collectively. Since they are the individuals who contribute to the fulfillment of the products, they also have to be the ones who pick what they contribute.

Without looking at a map, how well can you draw the shape of your country? | Well, let’s see…
Australia, huh?
Well, first I’ll need a pentagon.
Hm… Needs less landmass.
I’m feeling a little hungry, actually. No one will mind if I take a bite?
Few crumbs.. I’ll clean them up later. The big one can stay.
And there you are! Australia! Now you too know the secret of quick-draw pentagon Australia, and you can share it with all your friends!
…
……
wait
If Australia is a pentagon, then….
No…
I knew it!!

If slavery wasn't abolished in 1865, how long do you think it would have lasted after 1865? | If Europeans had not abolished slavery, it would still be the norm today.

Why did JFK have affairs? | I'm sure that therapists could spend thousands of words trying to explain the precise reasons in detail, but my best guess is that it comes down to two things: (1) JFK grew up in a household where infidelity was normalized through his father and (2) he was a rich, powerful, good looking man who had lots of opportunities to cheat.
Going in order, JFK's father, Joseph Kennedy, carefully curated his public image as a family man, but behind closed doors, he was a prolific womanizer who didn't bother to hide his affairs from his family. As a father, I'm sometimes surprised at how many meaningless (to me) things I do/say ultimately resonate with my children, but there's no mystery about the Kennedy household: the boys were taught that they didn't owe their wives faithfulness and that they could do whatever they wanted in their private lives as long as they maintained public appearances. As a child growing up in such an environment, JFK was likely to go in one of two directions: either he would reject his father's behavior or imitate it. He obviously went with door #2.
And second, I'm reminded of an old Norm Mcdonald joke about Tiger Woods; the punchline was that given the hundreds of opportunities he had to cheat every day, he was actually a pretty good husband in comparison to the average guy who might have 5 chances to cheat in his lifetime. JFK was not anyone's idea of a model husband, but he did have women throwing themselves at him right and left, which he obviously took advantage of as a reckless playboy.

How do travel websites like Trivago work? | Website live Trivago is Metasearch engines. These are not pure OTAs or booking platforms. They are rather more like comparison tools. They'll off the results from a number of other travel portals, say Makemytrip and Expedia, and then apply their own algorithms in some cases to re-order the results. You seach there, but you make booking on the actual portals like makemytrip or expedia.
Now, how does it make money in such cases, since the booking is taking place outside their system, so first is revenues from the advertising partners using a cost-per-click (CPC) business model. The Booking platforms, hoteliers and other providers list rates and advertise on the Trivago site, paying for the clicks received from Trivago

What is the best ayurvedic medicine for diabetes? | Ayurveda, an ancient system of medicine from India, offers various herbal remedies and formulations for managing diabetes. However, it's essential to approach Ayurvedic treatments with caution and consult a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner or healthcare provider before starting any Ayurvedic medicine, especially if you are already taking conventional medications for diabetes. They can provide personalized advice and ensure that the treatment is safe and appropriate for your specific condition. Here are some common Ayurvedic medicines and herbs used for diabetes:
Bitter Gourd (Karela): Bitter gourd is known for its blood sugar-lowering properties. It can be consumed as a vegetable, juice, or in powdered form.Indian Gooseberry (Amla): Amla is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants and is considered beneficial for diabetes management.Fenugreek (Methi): Fenugreek seeds can help regulate blood sugar levels. They can be soaked overnight and consumed in the morning or added to meals.Cinnamon (Dalchini): Cinnamon may help improve insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism. It can be added to food or consumed as a supplement.Gymnema Sylvestre (Gurmar): Gurmar is known as the "sugar destroyer" in Ayurveda and is believed to help reduce sugar cravings.Turmeric (Haldi): Turmeric contains curcumin, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that may benefit diabetes management.Bael (Bilva): Bael leaves, fruit, or juice are used in Ayurveda to help manage diabetes.Shilajit: Shilajit is a mineral-rich substance that is believed to support overall health, including diabetes management.Neem: Neem leaves or neem supplements are used in Ayurveda for their potential blood sugar-lowering effects.Triphala: Triphala is a combination of three fruits (Amalaki, Bibhitaki, and Haritaki) and is used in Ayurveda to support overall well-being, including diabetes management.
It's crucial to remember that while Ayurvedic medicines may provide benefits for some individuals, they are not a substitute for conventional medical treatment for diabetes. Diabetes is a complex condition that requires comprehensive management, including dietary and lifestyle changes, regular monitoring, and possibly medication. Always inform your healthcare provider about any Ayurvedic medicines or supplements you are considering to ensure they are safe and do not interact with any other medications you are taking.

Why does this generation have a lot of depressed people? | There are many factors that may contribute to the high rates of depression and mental health issues among young people in today's generation. Some of the possible factors include:
Social media: Social media can be a double-edged sword, as it can provide a platform for connection and communication, but it can also create feelings of loneliness, anxiety, and low self-esteem. The constant exposure to carefully curated images and updates from peers can create a sense of inadequacy and FOMO (fear of missing out).Academic pressure: Young people today are under immense pressure to excel academically and succeed in a highly competitive job market. The stress of maintaining good grades, balancing extracurricular activities, and preparing for standardized tests can take a toll on mental health.Economic insecurity: Many young people today face economic uncertainty and instability, with high student debt, low-paying jobs, and a lack of affordable housing. This can create feelings of hopelessness and despair, which can contribute to depression.Environmental factors: The fast-paced, technology-driven society of today can be overwhelming and stressful, leading to feelings of anxiety and burnout.Stigma: Despite the increasing awareness and acceptance of mental health issues, there is still a stigma surrounding mental illness. This can prevent young people from seeking help and support, which can worsen their symptoms.
It's important to note that mental health issues are complex, and there is no single factor that can fully explain why some individuals are more vulnerable to depression than others. However, by recognizing and addressing the various social, economic, and environmental factors that contribute to mental health issues, we can work towards creating a more supportive and compassionate society for young people.

Why is #ISRO trending on Twitter? | I think most of us are unhappy because our understanding of life is incomplete. Life without contentment will lead to unhappiness. Now contentment is not there because 1) There are continuous unfulfilled desires 2) we are in continuous rush for things and do not have time to contemplate. Education system is also not complete as it provides us with knowledge for basic means of existence and some moral principals. True happiness arises when mind is silent (less thoughts) and that is amalgamation of less desires, self contemplation, some meditation and virtuous life filled with some good deeds.

What are some facts that sound like 'BS', but are actually true? | I'm thrilled to share some mind-blowing facts that might sound unreal but are actually true. Prepare to be amazed:
Did you know that there are more trees on Earth than stars in the sky? It's estimated that we have over 3 trillion trees, while the Milky Way galaxy has about 100 billion stars.Contrary to what we might think, the Great Wall of China is not visible from space. Astronauts have confirmed that it's not visible without a telescope when they're in low Earth orbit.Chess is a game with an incredible number of possibilities. In fact, there are more potential moves and outcomes in a game of chess than there are atoms in the entire observable universe!Honey is truly a wonder. Archaeologists have found honey in ancient Egyptian tombs that's over 3,000 years old and still perfectly edible. Its low moisture and acidic properties help preserve it for centuries.Believe it or not, the largest living organism on Earth is a fungus! In Oregon, there's a gigantic honey mushroom that covers an area of around 2,385 acres (965 hectares). It's believed to be thousands of years old.Clouds may seem light and fluffy, but they can actually weigh a lot! On average, a cloud can weigh about 1.1 million pounds (500,000 kilograms) due to the water droplets or ice crystals they contain.Here's a surprising fact: Cleopatra, the famous Egyptian queen, lived closer in time to the moon landing than to the construction of the Great Pyramid of Giza. The pyramid was built thousands of years before her reign.Meet Jonathan, the world's oldest known creature. Jonathan is a tortoise from the Seychelles and is estimated to be more than 187 years old! He was born around 1832 and currently lives on St. Helena Island.Ants are incredibly numerous. In fact, the total weight of all ants on Earth is estimated to be equal to or even greater than the total weight of all humans on the planet. That's a lot of ants!The speed of light is mind-bogglingly fast. It can travel around the Earth's equator about 7.5 times in just one second. Imagine how quickly light can travel!
These mind-blowing facts showcase the incredible and fascinating aspects of our world. Share them with others to spark their curiosity and amazement!

Why is there so little trash on the streets of Vancouver, British Columbia, relative to any other city, such as San Francisco? | Civic pride. And growing up/living in an environment that that isn't conducive to such disposable attitudes!

What are some non-fiction books so interesting, so shocking, that you think every person should be required to read it? | None.
Mind you, there are lots of nonfiction books that I found very interesting.
But I’m not in favor of requiring everyone to read anything. That’s way too authoritarian for me. And I know that what fascinates me won’t fascinate everyone.

What is the best way to remit money from Japan to India? | On comparing with many other means to tranfer money to India, I have found Transferwise to be the best among the rest.
Easy processing, better exchange rates(they also provide a feature to compare), secure and more over you can hold onto a rate for few hours until you make the transfer.
Its pretty transparent and quick with the best rates.
To save some bucks use -

Will there be a gender de-transitioning epidemic in the coming years? | No, because there would first need to be a transitioning epidemic. And then there is the fact that only small percentage of people who transition end up detransitioning for reasons other than financial difficulties or threats to their safety and well-being by others.
The only way anything even remotely close to a detransitioning epidemic could happen would be if conservative religious nuts get their way and outlaw transgender healthcare completely and transgender people who have transitioned are forced by law to detransition.

You are having a big argument with your spouse. Your spouse grabs the family shotgun, points it at you and threatens to shoot you. What would you do? | We live in the UK, a civilised society. We don't have a ‘family shotgun’ whatever the hell that is. You people send shivers down my spine. What a way to live! It's like the 20th century never happened.

What did you get for Christmas 2017? | Im 12 year old male, I actually got everything I asked for and more so I am real happy.
A unicycle ( please tell me that’s not too weird)
a metal detector
Glow up poi pods ( my favorite so far, I haven’t got the unicycle or metal detector delivered yet)
a rechargeable battery pack
a cozy blanket
a beanie
a sweater
a jacket
some sweatpants
a toothbrush and toothpaste (now it’s not cuz my breath smells bad, it’s cuz it’s for camping, they love camping[at least that’s what they say])
I think that’s actually the best presents I’ve gotten so far (though I have to pay for 20 bucks if the Unicycle) I am happy for the minimal Random clothes too, I really can’t complain. also I guess this is a Benicia for being close to your grandparents and uncles.
merry birthday and a scary new Easter!

What do you think about the new Marvel comics characters Safespace, Snowflake, Trailblazer, B Negative and Screentime from “The New Warriors?” | I honestly thought this was a joke for a whole week. I’m still hoping that it’s a joke. (Even if it is, it’s really not a funny joke)
[LINKED_TEXT: Introducing the New 'New Warriors'] [URL: https://www.marvel.com/articles/comics/introducing-the-new-new-warriors]
Has no one at Marvel recognized that Snowflake and Safe Space are used as derogatory terms by conservatives? No one could be dumb enough to name comic book characters Snowflake and Safe Space, right?
RIGHT?
And Vampire Boy? I can totally hear the thought process that went into his character design:
“OK, kids today HATE the Twilight vampires, so we have to do something edgier. Make sure to make him look kinda scary, but not TOO scary because we want the girls to still think he’s hot.
Give him some cool red hair (shaved on the sides of course) and he ONLY likes 90’s music.
He needs to stand in the corner staring off into the void, because he’s just so EMO that he can’t stand to be around the others. His tagline can be ‘The world is a vampire…and so am I!’
HOLY CRAP we’re so smart!!
Voila: Vampiro Boy (I forgot his real name. I like the name Vampiro more)
I’m just waiting for Marvel to come out and say “HAHA - April fools!!!”
This is one of the reasons that I read more manga. Crap like this gets really old, really quick.

Can we defeat Heisenberg's Uncertainty principle by having one person measure the particle's position, while another one measures its momentum, but the two people don't talk to each other, but give their results to a third party? | These are all really good answers here. I would just like to throw an analogy on the pile to help illustrate.
If you need to measure the exact temperature of a sample of water, you need to stick a probe into it. The probe is room temperature. Sticking the probe into the water changes the temperature of the water around the probe.
So you literally cannot exactly measure the temperature of the water using the probe because doing so changes the temperature that you are trying to measure.
It is a loose analogy. But it is close enough to explain what is meant by the whole mess. And it puts it into a macroscopic sense that you can wrap your brain around.

What is the best way for preparing for GATE CSE? | Formulate a practical study plan based on your strengths, weaknesses, approx. weightage of topics & the time you have for preparation. In case you are weak in areas that carry very little weightage then you can either cover it at the very end or skip it.
We recommend studying for at least 4 hours every day. You can spend 2 hours on core subjects, 1 hour each on engineering mathematics & general aptitude. Attempt mock tests/previous year papers in the last 3-4 weeks.
The figures mentioned below are based on previous year papers & are subject to change
Pro-tips:
Cement your understanding of a topic or concept by solving questions of all possible types based on it immediately after learning it.Spend the last 4-5 mins in the GATE exam guessing answers of the numerical value based problems that you aren’t able to solve. Don’t skip these questions since there is no negative marking.Quantitative Aptitude & mathematics alone are worth 30 marks in the GATE exam and can be quite high scoring if you put in the effort. Refer to “Quantitative Aptitude for competitive examinations by R S Aggarwal” & previous year question papers.
Irrespective of which branch you are from, Testbook can be your one-stop shop for everything GATE. We offer mock tests, topic/subject specific practise tests, free expert live classes, video lessons for aptitude, preparation tips, shortcuts, frequently asked questions & answers and much more to help you ace the GATE exam.

Could Data pass the Kobayashi Maru in Star Trek? | No, because Kobayashi Maru isn’t a test, or at least it isn’t that sort of test. It’s a training exercise. Its function is to give command candidates a foretaste of what real loss is like so that, hopefully, they’ll know how to deal with the possibility of losing without panic. The exercise also gives the instructors insight into the candidate’s character. You can’t fail. You also can’t pass.
Data could go through the exercise in the captain’s seat. He may, in fact, have done so. His performance in in real-life situations where catastrophe seemed certain shows that he performs quite smoothly in situations that would likely drive most humans to distraction. He would have done the same in the Kabayashi Maru. Most likely he would have more trouble afterwards—it would have drawn his attention to an aspect of human mental function he hadn’t yet mimicked.

What is the Ship of Theseus paradox? | Would it be pushing too far to say that the original ship could be dubbed the “Ship of Theseus 1.0”, and as you repair more and more of it, you change that number (1.1, 1.2, …, 1.11, 1.12, so on and so forth) until you have your ship with brand new parts. At that point, why not dub it the “Ship of Theseus 2.0”? Now, if you reconstructed the original, that just becomes the 1.0 once again.
Another route would be to follow the same path as above, but to never reach the “2.0” point, since technically, nothing about the ship is new in terms of dimensions, use, or features. Granted, if you replaced the parts with more durable wood (or a more durable material in general), I feel an argument could be made to change to “2.0.”

What's the most ridiculous thing a coworker told on you to your boss for? | I suppose it was when one of them told an internal news reporter I was living with my girlfriend who happened to be another elected official of the union I was heading. We were all teachers and it hadn’t been too long since the days when living together was ‘living in sin’ and frowned on among teachers, but time had passed, so when I was ‘confronted’ with the question of whether it was true, I said, ‘yeah, so what’ and that was the end of it as it would be in most places today in North American at least. The tone in which the question was asked, though, was so high and mighty and suggestive of some sort of secrecy or almost a ‘conspiracy to hide it’ type feeling, it has always stuck in my mind and made me laugh to recall it. It did get into the article that was published, though, as if anyone really cared.
Oddly it came up again not long after when both of us were in a very tense meeting with our elected school board trustees and officials and I was trying to break the ice by chatting with my opposing negotiator from their team and said about one of our negotiations, ‘that was probably the most fun I ever had’ and my live-in down the table said, ‘I think I resent that.’ Every rolled on the floor laughing because it was still a ‘secret’ of sorts that no one felt they could mention (that we lived together), but the typical ‘spousal’ humor was exactly what it took to make the meeting go smoother thereafter. That sort of thing made her an outstanding negotiator, too, by the way.

What is it like being a user experience research contractor at Google? | Good question.
It really depends on the product area and team. UX researchers will have the reputation predecessors instilled on partner teams. Generally speaking, UX researchers are viewed as an asset to the wider team, since most key results are based on user experience, which is highly prioritized especially at Google. I hope that answers your question.

In the aviation industry, what is your favorite pilot watch? | Citizen Eco-Drive.
In particular, this one or one of the colour and strap variations:
Model AT8020.
Why?
It’s a solar perpetual calendar quartz with time zones and UTC. That makes it a great travel watch.
It has a good chronograph.
The pilot calculator bezel is actually sort of usable (Seiko, I’m looking at you…) even though it’s a bit small.
Eco-drives are nearly indestructable, and I’ve had them last more than 20 years running perfectly with zero maintenance. Wear a watch daily for that long and you’ll wear out the case and strap anyway. Sapphire crystal, so it won’t scratch easily.
It’s not so expensive that if you bang it on something you’re going to be terribly upset, and it looks like a serious watch… because it is.
Only downside? It’s a bit heavy. I wish they made this model in titanium.

What are the common mistakes students do while preparing for GATE? | All things I will mention here isn't a secret, deep inside we all know these things are crucial for any exam's prepration.
Please don't make timetable or routine and paste on the wall to follow, I guarantee you will not follow it because generally we prepare very ideal and hard routine which is very tough to follow and you will get disappointed unnecessarily by not following it.This one is very common, don't be overconfident after reading. I have seen many many people during my prepration, they are fooling themselves and falsely wanted to make an impression of a topper infront of everyone to enjoy little fame. Please please don't brag your knowledge infront of anyone, I am saying this because people generally don't know or their mind tricks them to do this kind of things to enjoy fame.Please don't use social media for the sake of refreshments, never means never. Yes you can use whatsapp but that too for GATE only, just forget your life with others and focus only on Gate.Don't waste your time by going malls, watching cinema or grouping with friends they aren't going anywhere. You can watch the cinema later after gate, roam the mall or any other places later with friends, but this crucial time never gonna come back and if you fail you will definitely cry for your mistakes. So it's better to avoid them.Beware, during prepration please don't do Babu-Shona too much or try to make a new relationship this isn't the correct time. You can pause your relationship or can have little talks but tell them to support you mentally and not to quarrel during this time.Never skip your mistakes analysis after giving test, first of all start your test series as early as possible and after each test analyse your mistakes intensively. The main purpose of a test series is to make you aware of your mistakes and to rectify them so use the test series properly.Never ever leave any subject completely, if you want to score good marks you have to prepare all subjects because you never know which subjects weightage gonna increase that year. So please I request you to not leave any subject untouched, yes you can leave some topics but please don't leave that subject.Never talk to someone which has negativity in mind just stay away from them. I had an incident I want to share [LINKED_TEXT: Sanjay Yadav's answer to How do you refresh yourself when frustrated and bored of solving GATE numericals?] [URL: https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-refresh-yourself-when-frustrated-and-bored-of-solving-GATE-numericals/answer/Sanjay-Yadav-3548] If possible please read this you will be benefitted.

A 100 watt incandescent produces about 1600 lumens of light over a smaller surface area. An 18 watt CFL would replace a 100 watt incandescent / halogen bulb.

What is the biggest problem with the modern education system? | I teach Mathematics at a community college. Generally speaking, we don’t seem to put any value in Math. As technology advances continue to happen, I would think having an understanding of Mathematics is even more important. There is a huge spotlight on student success, and Math and English are the main targets. Why? Any degree you get requires Math and English. There has been this movement to remove barriers so students can advance and get their degree. In a California Community College, 70% of our courses were at the remedial level (Arithmetic, Pre-Algebra, etc). Nowadays, no more than 10% of our courses are at the remedial level. That’s a massive problem. The solution for more success is worse than the problem presented. The same thing is occurring in English as well. In Public Schools, they have the completely idiotic “No Child Left Behind” act. You can have a student fail Math since the 5th grade and then throw that person into Algebra 1. You have students who are completely prepared for Algebra 1, and you have students who can’t add two numbers together. That’s a recipe for a complete disaster. There are numerous things that I have massive problems with. Their definition of success is so warped. I had a student that began with Algebra 1. She ended up taking me for Calculus 3 and Differential Equations. She is an engineering major and VERY smart. She will get a degree and I have no doubt will have multiple job offers. We don’t highlight those successes. They do occur. At the community college, you can’t measure success by how many people go to a university. People go to a community college for a variety of reasons (enrichment, job training , etc). There is no “one size fits all” approach. It’s not reality, and I think administrators are trying to look for that.

What are the best ways to invest money? | What Are the Best Ways to Invest Money?
Hey there, fellow Quora readers! Today, I wanted to share my personal insights and experiences on the best ways to invest money. Investing is a fantastic way to grow your wealth and secure a better financial future. While it may seem overwhelming at first, there are several straightforward and effective investment options that can help you make the most of your hard-earned money. So, let's explore the best ways to invest money together!
1.Start with an Emergency Fund:
Before diving into investments, it's crucial to set aside some money for emergencies. Building an emergency fund ensures that you have a safety net in case of unexpected expenses or financial hardships. Aim to save three to six months' worth of living expenses in a separate savings account that is easily accessible.
2.Pay off High-Interest Debt:
If you have any high-interest debts, such as credit card balances or personal loans, it's wise to prioritize paying them off before investing. This is because the interest you'll save from paying off debts is often higher than potential investment returns. By becoming debt-free, you'll have more disposable income available for investing.
How Newbies Turn $20 Into $90,000 In 90 Days? (Not Crypto)
Hey there!
Forbes recently featured this astonishing software that has allowed thousands of everyday people turn $20 into over $100,000 in just 3 months…
In fact, it is the same software that the top 1% of the hidden “elite” class of investors use to get returns of 150%, 500%, and even 10,000% sometimes within a few months or even weeks.
The reason why this money making software is different from anything else out there is because unlike other systems, this one accurately predicts and filters out explosive stocks in the market before they explode.
So you can buy stocks before they skyrocket in value from the very bottom, often for just pennies, and ride it all the way to the top!
Without needing to read and study technical analysis…
Without needing to look at fundamental analysis…
Without paying some secret stock guru thousands of dollars to access it…

3.Take Advantage of Retirement Accounts:
One of the best ways to invest money is through retirement accounts, such as a 401(k) or an Individual Retirement Account (IRA). These accounts offer tax advantages and allow your investments to grow tax-free or tax-deferred. Contribute regularly to your retirement accounts, especially if your employer offers a matching contribution.
4.Explore Index Funds or Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs):
Index funds and ETFs are excellent investment options for beginners. These funds pool money from multiple investors and invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks or bonds that track a specific market index. They offer instant diversification, lower fees, and require less hands-on management compared to individual stock picking.
5.Consider Real Estate Investment:
Real estate can be a profitable long-term investment option. You can invest in rental properties or real estate investment trusts (REITs). Rental properties provide rental income and the potential for property value appreciation over time. REITs, on the other hand, allow you to invest in real estate without directly owning properties.
6.Diversify Your Portfolio:
Diversification is key to managing risk and maximizing potential returns. Spread your investments across different asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, real estate, and even alternative investments like precious metals or cryptocurrencies. This helps protect your portfolio from the impact of a single investment's performance.
7.Stay Informed and Monitor Your Investments:
Investing requires staying informed and keeping an eye on your investments. Stay updated on market trends, economic news, and any developments related to your investments. Regularly review your portfolio's performance and make adjustments as needed. However, avoid making impulsive decisions based on short-term market fluctuations.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, the best ways to invest money include building an emergency fund, paying off high-interest debt, taking advantage of retirement accounts, exploring index funds or ETFs, considering real estate investments, diversifying your portfolio, and staying informed about your investments. Remember, investing is a long-term game, and patience is key. By following these strategies and maintaining a disciplined approach, you can potentially grow your wealth and achieve your financial goals. Best of luck on your investment journey!

Does Canada feel animosity towards the Trump administration for the threats and tariffs of the last two years? | I would have to say “Yes” to that.
The Steel Tariff reversed a strong (continuous) increase in export sales setting back steel sales by 10.8% The Aluminum tariff reverse caused a drop in sales of 3.9% These are seriously large drops in sales performance seriously impacting the producers and ultimately costing US consumers to pay more in construction material costs (as an example). The US imposed Tariffs put an extra 183 million dollars per month in the US duty collectors pocket during the tariff increase that was passed along to consumers (ultimately).
What bothers me is the ease at which the president did it. This should be really of a concern to everyone in Canada. Trump displayed a complete lack of global economics and treated one of the USA’s biggest trading partners like a “less than” or unimportant x-partner. He was ready to economically damage Canadian Trade relations and the economy just to appease his political base. Be the “Big Man”.
The result is now, at a fundamental level, Canadians no longer trust America. I see the USMCA (reboot of NAFTA) as something that is probably not worth the paper that it is printed on. If the President can invoke “War Measures” act to impose any tariff that he desires as a “punitive” measure then I think that Canada should be trying very very hard to find other trading partners to work with. Trading partners that value a relationship with Canada because the USA clearly does not.
This is just my opinion.

What are the differences between Kurds, Assyrians, Arabs and Persians? | Kurds(Median) are Indo-European people who later due to massive Arian migration settled in Cuasues, Anatolia and upper Mezoptomia which was dominated by the Assyrian empire. Kurds Finally overthrow Assyrian empire in 612 BC .Medes were very advanced in communication and system of governing.

What are your late growth spurt stories? | Would it be ok if I share photos of myself aging over a span of 6 years?
This was me in 2011 when I straightened my hair for the first time ever.
A picture of me from 2012 and with my natural wavy hair. Taken in Bangladesh and just a year before moving to Oman.
Then I decided to cut my beautiful long hair in Dubai because I thought it would be a “fantastic” idea! *facepalm*
Me in 2014. Took me a year to grow my hair and this was also the same year I discovered makeup which totally changed my life.
It is also the year when I used to straighten my hair every single day which caused my hair to thin out a lot.
This is me in 2015. When I discovered I had anxiety and that I suffered from ADHD. This honestly was a hard year for me.
Me now in 2016. Here's a pic of me with makeup and without makeup.
In these past 4 and a half years when I moved to Oman, I have learnt a lot. I feel like I have completely changed as a person ever since I moved to this country. This place is where I found my passion for makeup and how I want to be a makeup artist in the future. Makeup completely changed my life. Also I have met lots of people from different nationalities here which I think is amazing because before moving here I've never met anyone from different countries such as the Middle East, Europe or America and it's really nice to see different people from different cultures. You really get to learn a lot about them and where they come from.
What I really like about Oman is people actually get treated equally here no matter the color. In Bangladesh, you're only acknowledged if you're wealthy.
Now, we are going to move again to another country. Tbh, it's really hard being an expat. It's hard to leave the country where you finally adapted to and made so many memories with. I loved every single day of the last 4 and a half years I spent here in Muscat, Oman and I will forever cherish the memories I made here.

What are the best ways to invest money? | Hii Friends,
There are many good ways in which the money can be invested which provide high returns. Following are some good investment options that can be availed:
[LINKED_TEXT: How to Make a Smart Investment Plan - 8 Simple Steps to Know] [URL: https://www.punditprofit.com/2023/05/building-strong-investment-plan.html]
1. LAND: An asset that does not depreciate over time.- For me, this is the safest bet for money investment and wealth creation in medium to long term to double your money or even much more. Infact, there is no limit to it.- However, this usually requires some good amount of research, field work, time consuming and legal work. Also, this is largely dependent on market valuation and has no fixed formula to evaluate.- Land sold within 3 years attracts a Short Term Capital Gain tax of 20% on profit, while 10% tax when sold after 3 years.- There are many websites now available which deal in real estate and plots buy/sell. One should purchase land/plots only from reputed dealers/companies and verify the legal documents from a legal expert.- A plot in the outskirts or along the highways/by pass roads, are good prospects and cheaper too. While any plot within the city would be already costly and might not appreciate further at a good rate.2. STOCKS or SHARES or EQUITIES: Probably the quickest way to grow wealth.- Investing in Stock Market is nothing but investing in the Company business and becoming its shareholder.- This is one of the easiest ways of investing money with a click of mouse using Demat Account. Totally transparent, hassle free and paperless process of transaction.- Biggest benefit is the profit is completely tax free if the investment is held for more than a year. Even the short term profit (Shares sold within a year) attracts only 15% STCG tax flat.- It can double your money in few years, months and even weeks.- A good company would also declare dividends (tax free) regularly and can issue share splits and bonuses which can increase your invested worth exponentially.- Also, every day one can get multiple opportunities to make profits via intraday trading as well.- Equity linked Mutual Funds, ULIPs, ELSS etc. are indirect ways of investing in the Share Market which can give you handsome returns if chosen wisely.- However, investing in Equities directly or through Mutual Funds is completely subject to market risks and hence requires at least some basic strategy mitigate risks.
DEBT: This is the least risky investment option however cannot help your money grow at a fast pace.
PPF (Public Provident Fund): One of the best debt investment options in long run. Not only Completely Tax Free but also a tax Saving investment under Section 80C. Money is locked for initial 7 years and cannot invest more than Rs. 1.5Lacs per year. However, serves as the best and safest wealth creation vehicle over years. After the maturity of 15 years, PPF can be renewed for another block of 5 years indefinitely.
Fixed Deposits (FD): These are usually taxable and money is locked for the specific duration. It also usually attracts penalty if the money is withdrawn pre-maturely.
Post Office Schemes: Like NSC, KVP, RD etc. However, the interest rates are not that high. Indian Post Offices are yet to catch up the online age, so not so favorite.
ULIPs (Unit Linked Insurance Plan) are good SIPs (Systematic Investment Plan):- Firstly its a Life Insurance Plan, the premium of which is invested in equity market, Hence, the return is never fixed and may be even negative if market has not performed well over the years of investment. Secondly, SIPs invest your money periodically (fixed dates) in the market irrespective of whether the market is at high or low. However, to reap best returns, the money should ideally be invested only when the market or share price is trading lower.
HOPE this answer helps!

Why do masons show up in a brother's funeral? Can they be asked no to if it would upset relatives? | Masons - and most other people - will show up to a friend’s funeral as a sign of respect.
If the man who passed was a member of the fraternity, his family can ask for a Masonic funeral service. This service isn’t a required event; it must be requested.

How is student life in South Korea? | I once 'lived' in South Korea for a week as an exchange student. I was very excited at that time because I liked k-pop and was curious about how the students were studying there.
Maybe my experience can help :D
We left in the fall. The first impression is that the airport atmosphere is ordinary, quiet, not like the atmosphere when idols are welcomed home, which is so crowded that there is a photographer. Exiting the airport immediately felt really cold. I have never been to a cold country. Haha
I was surprised when I first met my partner and her friends. Their make up is pretty thickSomething like this, but not all this 'natural'. Some have whiter faces than their necks, some have very red lipstick, wear eyeliner, and many use patches to cover their pimples. When I'm talking, I like to watch and think why the makeup is so thick plus the patch is a little strange in my eyes because no one in my house has worn it. I don't dare to ask the reason for wearing that thick makeup because I think it's impolite.Regarding the appearance of the students there, the girls are beautiful and tall, I don't pay much attention to the boys because I'm afraid (don't know why) but among Korean students who take student exchanges, the average is average, but 2-3 people are handsome and seem no plastic surgery, I don't know, I can't tell the difference :D. The height of the boys also varies, not all are tall, but some are very tall. The way they wear uniforms is also different. There are those who wear skirts and training pants at the same time and there are men who wear shirts that are not buttoned with them. Overall, South Korean students are like their TV dramas.Get ready for school at 06.00, 07.00Breakfast with small portions, actually I have a lot of appetite but at times I feel uncomfortable because they eat small portions, even though the food is delicious and I don't know why while I was there I was always served cold water.They don't shower in the morning, only wash their hair because they had bathed the night before (seems everyone already knows this)Most student families live in apartments and in car parks.I rarely see my partner's father at home in the morning, her mother often takes us to school.They are very cold. I, who already wore layered clothes and jackets, were still cold, but they only had short skirts, stockings, and jackets that looked comfortable.When we arrived, South Korean students came home early from school to accompany us to places of interest. I thought going home early meant it was noon but it was 06.00 PM. They just got home at that hour, they looked very happy. I can't imagine another student coming home later that night.If you want to enter the school building, you have to take off your shoes and replace them with sandals (I don't know if this is only done in certain seasons or not). So they each have their own slippers left at school.In my opinion, because they are more often at school, when they are outside of school they seem to want to be free. We were taken to places of entertainment such as bowling, billiards, karaoke. I personally want to go to a quiet place, but I can't protest either. Finally, I just enjoy it.My partner's family and friends are very kind. When we were at home, we were served Korean snacks such as Korean pancakes and when they greeted us, my friend's partner's father greeted us in another language, it was so funny that he used a translation with his voice.When they come home from school, they are rarely picked up. We sometimes take a taxi or bus home (if we take the bus, we are very tired because we have to walk again and in my opinion it is quite far but the good thing is that after that I am stronger than my other friends in my home country :D)Still about the points above, on the bus when it's crowded it feels very stuffy and the bus driver often wants to fall from his seatBecause I like to hear scary stories on the bus, I always cover my ass just in case.When I was on the bus, I often smelled a peculiar smell. Cannot be described.I've been seen by skinny men and he smiled so creepy that I was nervous. At first I thought maybe it wasn't me that he saw but after many times I looked at the father, he still had the same smile and kept looking at me. Luckily, it wasn't long before he came down. N-TThe tteokbokki there is very different from the one in my city. It's
more delicious and tastes very very different.Every time I eat, there is always kimchi.Schools in South Korea are very large. At the school we attended, the boys' and girls' classes were separated. In these classes, it is very normal for students to wear hair rollers, blankets, mirrors, etc. when the teacher teaches.When at the coffee shop, Korean students don't like to talk or joke until their voices are loud.Walking in the middle of the night is normal for them.The toilet has a lot of weird buttons. I'm so confused just to flush :(I've been to a public toilet in a dining area and the inside door has used sanitary napkins on it. Oh man, it's the first time I've seen something like that… you can imagine how disgusted I wasThere was a Korean student who joined our activity and came late—we were playing billiards at the time—I didn't notice it at first, but my friend said that the Korean student's neck had red marks :D I thought maybe it was because it was night, mosquito bites. If it's true as expected, that's the first time I've seen T.T's hickey marks and it's weird...They—Korean students—are very good at taking photos.
Actually there are many more but it will be very long. The school is not in Seoul. So, I don't know if in Seoul the student life is the same or not.
I think you can draw your own conclusions about student life in Korea.

What are some remarkable displays of selflessness witnessed in sports? | While Rick Hoyt's son, Richard, was in the womb the umbilical cord became wrapped around his neck.
This resulted in his being afflicted with Cerebral Palsy which left Richard almost completely immobile and required care for the remainder of his life.
Against the orders of doctors his father Rick chose to keep him at home and give him the best life he could.
When Richard was 15 he asked his dad, Rick, if they could do a race to raise money for charity for an injured athlete from his school.
He pushed his son in his chair for the entire race.
His son ended up loving it, saying that while they raced he felt like he could walk for once in his life, that he felt alive.
That was all that his father needed to hear.
This began a long tradition of running races:
Which included triathalons, in which Rick would put his son in a raft and pull him:
Carrying him to different vehicles for transport.
They have formed a legendary partnership that includes hundreds of races and 72 marathons.
There is now a statue of the two in Boston:
His father’s dedication to raising money and awareness for Cerebral Palsy, and above all, his dedication to bringing happiness to his son's life has always moved me.
It is quite selfless.

Can King Charles III give knighthood to anybody that he wants, or must they be British citizens and pre-approved? | In official matters, the king acts only on the “advice” (really, the instructions) of the Prime Minister. So the prime minister gives him a list of knighthoods and he automatically approves it. Knights do not have to be citizens, but some countries frown on their citizens accepting honours from foreign countries, so the UK giving honours to non-citizens is relatively rare (eg., Amercian general Norman Schwartzkopf was given a knighthood for his role in commanding Operation Desert Storm).
That being said, there are some orders of knighthood that are reserved for personal service to the king, and the king has discretion over who gets them. The government could in theory object to a knighthood being given to the king’s servants and advisors, but they will try to avoid interfering with that if at all possible.

without using mathematical induction? | I can prove the statement by factorisation as below.
[math] n^{5} - 5n^{3} + 4n [/math]
[math]= n(n^{4} - 5n^{2} + 4) = n(n^{2} - 1)(n^{2} - 4)[/math]
[math]= n(n - 1)(n + 1)(n - 2)(n + 2)[/math]
[math]= (n -2)(n - 1)(n)(n + 1)(n + 2)[/math], which is a product of 5 consecutive integers. The 5 factors of the product leaves different remainders when divided by 5. One of their remainders must be zero and hence divisible by 5. Also when divided by 4, at least one of the remainders must be also zero and hence divisible by 4. Therefore [math] n^{5} - 5n^{3} + 4n [/math]is divisible by 20.
Moreover, at least one of them is divisible by 3 and therefore it must be divisible by 120.

Why do you need to use command prompt? | The command prompt is extremely powerful. The command prompt can delete the entire System32 folder if it has the right setup, now mind you, the typical user cannot. Not even an Administrator can delete System32. Plus, they are keeping it around because it is required for programs like node.js to run, and some system functions (like all of them!) as behind all of your fancy graphics, is a hidden Command Prompt. Think of Windows 10 as a program in Command Prompt. Without Command Prompt, almost everything that relies on a not-already integrated terminal will fail, including some Windows processes.

Why aren't Macs being built with touch screens? | You see, I was a user of the Microsoft Surface pro4. I‘d say their concept is good and the product design is ok. But after half a year use, I dropped it and turned to MacBook pro. Here are some issues with the touchscreen design
1.I seldom use the touchscreen because 1)it’s very tired to raise your arm and use fingers on the screen especially when the operating logic is still a mouse-keyboard design. 2) the screen easily gets painted with tons of fingerprints and I have to carry a cloth to clean it everyday.
2. using pen to draw on the screen is good, but the windows store has a few Apps that really need the pen to work. I’m not an artist, I want an App that can use pen gestures.
3. Because the logic behind a PC is so different from that of a tablet, it is worse to put the two logics together and make a 2-in-1 product.

What are some unique facts about Telugu? | I have been learning Telugu language for some two years; Still I haven’t mastered the art and beauty of this sweet language. So, i’ll list out some of the known and unknown facts one by one:
Telugu language is a Dravidian language which ranks 3rd by the number of native speakers in India.‘Telugu’ might also be a reference to physical characteristics of the people who once lived there.
Etymology: Andhra Bhasha — the language of the Andhras is known as Telugu, or Tenugu (tene/the-n = honey, agu = is), meaning, sweet as honey. The speakers of the language call it "Telugu". The older forms of the name include Teluṅgu, Tenuṅgu and Teliṅga. The etymology of Telugu is not certain. Some historical scholars have suggested a derivation from Sanskrit triliṅgam, as in Trilinga Desa, "the country of the three lingas". Another view holds that tenugu is derived from the Tamil and Kannada word ten– "south" to mean "the people who lived in the south/southern direction" in relation to the Indo-Aryan empires. But this etymology sounds absurd and meaningless, and the word “th-e’N” (not te-n) means Honey in Tamil; So this is the most correct etymology.Early Epigraphy: Prakrit Inscriptions with some Telugu words dating back to 400 BC to 100 BC have been discovered in Bhattiprolu in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh. The English translation of one inscription reads, "gift of the slab by venerable Midikilayakha". This recent discovered inscriptions dating around 400–100 BCE actually was not a Telugu inscription.
Dated between 200 BCE - 200 CE, a Prakrit work called Gāthā Saptaśatī written by Sathavahana King Hala, Telugu words like అత్త, వాలుంకి, పీలుఅ, పోట్టం, కిలించిఅః, అద్దాఏ, భోండీ, సరఅస్స, తుప్ప, ఫలహీ, వేంట, రుంప-రంప, మడహసరిఆ, వోడసుణఓ, సాఉలీ and తీరఏ have been used.
The first inscription entirely in Telugu was made in 575 AD and was probably made by Renati Cholas, who started writing royal proclamations in Telugu instead of Sanskrit or Prakrits. Telugu developed as a poetical and literary language during the 11th century. This first written materials in the Telugu date from 575 AD and its script is derived from that of the 4th-century AD Chalukya dynasty and is related to that of the Kannada language. Telugu literature begins in the 11th century AD with a version of the Indian epic Mahabharata by the writer Nannaya.
According to the famous Japanese Historian [LINKED_TEXT: Noboru Karashima] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noboru_Karashima] who once served as the President of the Epigraphical Society of India in 1985 calculated that there are approximately 10,000+ inscriptions which exist in the Telugu language as of the year 1996 making it one of the most densely inscribed languages.
Telugu inscriptions are found in all the districts of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They are also found in Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and other states in India.
Bhujang Chenchiah [LINKED_TEXT: A History of Telugu Literature] [URL: https://books.google.co.in/books?id=xwXx7LB-ai4C&pg=PA17], Asian Educational Services, 1988 [Ref. [LINKED_TEXT: Telugu language - Wikiquote] [URL: https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Telugu_language]]: “The view, maintained by all Telugu grammarians and Sanskrit Philogists, that Telugu is Vikriti — that is, a language formed by the modification of Sanskrit and Prakrit. An analysis of the language as it has ...been for centuries confirms this traditional view....” But the information does not enable to say whether they used Telugu in any form. It is probable that they spoke a form of Prakrit, from which Telugu has descended. Vikriti is the Proto-Telugu/Pre-Telugu spoken around 600 BCE–100 CE.Telugu was more influenced by Sanskrit and Prakrit during this period, which corresponded to the advent of Telugu literature. Because of the continuous political dynamic empires like Mauryan, Satavanna and Pallavas have influenced their Prakrit, Sanskrit and Old Tamil on Vikriti, thus OLD TELUGU was completely formed well around 3rd century AD.Although many Sanskrit words are used in Telugu, yet the language has not its origin in Sanskrit.Pure Telugu is formed from roots, which have a close connection with the roots of the other languages of South India, e.g., Tamil, Kannada, etc.The Vijayanagar Empire gained dominance from 1336 to the late 17th century, reaching its peak during the rule of Krishnadevaraya in the 16th century, when Telugu literature experienced what is considered its Golden Age. The bulk of Telugu literature belongs to the 14th and subsequent centuries. In the beginning of the 16th century the court of King Krishnadevaraya of Vijayanagar was famous for its learning, and various branches of literature were eagerly cultivated. The poet Vemana is supposed by some authorities to have lived during the 16th century.The Telugu Grammar is called vyākaranam (వ్యాకరణం). The first treatise on Telugu grammar, the Āndhra Śabda Cinṭāmaṇi, was written in Sanskrit by Nannayya, considered the first Telugu poet and translator, in the 11th century AD. Every Telugu grammatical rule is derived from Pāṇinian concepts.Sanskrit influenced Telugu of Andhra and Telangana regions for about 1500 years; however, there is evidence that suggests an older influence. During the period 1000–1100 AD, Nannaya's re-writing of the Mahābhārata in Telugu (మహాభారతము) re-established its use, and it dominated over the royal language, Sanskrit. Telugu absorbed tatsamas from Sanskrit.Modern Telugu vocabulary can be said to constitute a diglossia because the formal, standardised version of the language is either lexically Sanskrit or heavily influenced by Sanskrit, is taught in schools, and is used by the government and Hindu religious institutions.Everyday Telugu varies depending upon region and social status. The Telugu language, like many others, may be viewed as consisting of three branches, namely— (1) The language of common conversation, (2) The language of prose books, and (3) The language of Poetry. Each of these three branches differs not only in the choice of words, but also in grammatical forms of the same words.Telugu words end in vowels which many consider a mellifluous quality and thus suitable for musical expression. So most songs (Kirtanas) are in Kannada and Telugu, specifically !
Historicity of Telugu language:
Among the four major Dravidian Languages, Tamil and Telugu had independent Origins: [LINKED_TEXT: History and Development of the four Major Dravidian Languages] [URL: https://languages361.quora.com/History-and-Development-of-the-four-Major-Dravidian-Languages]Bhujang Chenchiah [LINKED_TEXT: A History of Telugu Literature] [URL: https://books.google.co.in/books?id=xwXx7LB-ai4C&pg=PA17], Asian Educational Services, 1988: ...the view, maintained by all Telugu grammarians and Sanskrit philologists, that Telugu is Vikriti — that is, a language formed by the modification of Sanskrit and Prakrit. An analysis of the language as it has ...been for centuries confirms this traditional view....But the information does not enable to say whether they used Telugu in any form. It is probable that they spoke a form of Prakrit, from which Telugu has descended. (Page-16)Steever, Sanford B. (1998), "Introduction to the Dravidian Languages", in Steever, Sanford B., The Dravidian Languages, Routledge, pp. 1–39 explains clearly why Telugu was a Prakrit in its initial phase. Even Proto-Telugu (Vikriti) is supposed to be more ancient than Magadhi prakrit.
Is Telugu, a Dravidian or Indo-aryan language ?
Telugu language in its initial phase Proto-Telugu (Vikriti) was spoken in Asaka Jannapadha. And around 400 BCE after the fall of Asaka Jannaphada, Andhra empire was established under Satavannas (vassals of Mauryan Empire) who spoke Maharastri Prakrit. And after the fall of Mauryan empire, Satavannas are well known for having established trade links with north and south. They’re credited for establishing the vedic culture to the South. During these phases of History, Vikriti and other Prakrits influence over Dravidian languages gave Telugu, a high balanced Dravidian and Indo-aryan substratum. That is the reason why Telugu is still debated about its linguistic family identity. Telugu may be a Dravida bhasha or Arya bhasha (neither dravidian nor indo-aryan, but never anyone). Linguistically, Telugu is said to split from Proto-Dravidian at first. I would say Tamil is both phonologically and morphologically more close to Proto-Dravidian while, Telugu is morphologically closer to Proto-Dravidian. In terms of number of contrasting sounds, Tamil retains a considerable amount of Proto-Dravidian cognates and phonological system, while Telugu retains Proto-Dravidian gender system alone. Because of these similarities in morphological features, Telugu is often confused to be emerged from Tamil. But anyway Historical Linguistics says that Telugu in its initial phase was Prakrit which in due course of time evolved as a Dravida bhasha. That is the reason why early Epigraphic records found in Telangana and Andra are in Prakrit. Telugu is a continuation of Prakrit, during its historic phases unlike Tamil country, Telugu land suffered from Numerous invasions. Because of all these, Telugu language got distanced away from its Prakritic legacy. Other Dravidian languages may also have influenced Telugu language during its historic phases.
Vedic basha → Vikriti basha (Pre-Proto-Telugu)→ Maharastri prakrit (Proto-Telugu) → Old Telugu → Middle Telugu → Modern Telugu.

What was your strangest holiday gift that left you shaking your head? | In my family, in the middle of the Christmas dinner, we have a tradition, we everyone passes the gift to each person but no one opens it till dinner is over.
So, basically you get your gift halfway through Christmas dinner but just stare at it as you finish the second half of your meal.
It’s weird but we do it and it’s kind of fun to see how the kids with impatient for their gift. It does something as it makes the kids more patient as they grow into an adult. It definitely helps me in my adult years with impulsivities and instant gratification.
Anyways, 4 years ago, a family friend that we invited to dinner (because why not) legitimately gave my cousin (who married without kids) a pack of condoms “for good luck”. It really shook me.
When we opened it after dinner, he just opened a box of trojans slim fit skyn.
She gave it to him with the straightest face and said, “get to work, good luck”.
I don’t know if I consider as much strange as unnecessarily out of place and perhaps disrespectful. Needless to say, we never invited the aforementioned person to family dinner again although we are now distant family-friends.
Like, why would you do that, I don’t know why a person would. It did, though, promote...

Is it illegal to sell a book illustrated with a style meant to look like the drawing style used in a copywrited work (comment included)? | I'm not a lawyer but (long description here)
Using another art style in general is a bit of a case by case basis, but as an artist I find the best way to ask of it's safe to use is: How infuencial is this art style on other works and what traits appear in unrelated works of art?
This can vary wildly depending on the copyright holder. Most cartoons, both western cartoons and anime tend to follow trends by the decade, these traits seen in multiple works are usually going to be considered "stock assets" and non copyrightable. So look for decade wide trends.
Issues come in when someone heavily draws from an art style not seen elsewhere, as if other large companies aren't copying parts of it, it's definitely dangerous ground for an individual. Ever wonder why nobody draws and sells stuff in Dr Seuss' style? But multiple people seem to have an art style in their commercial portfolio similar to Jhonen Vasquez? It's probably because one is generally safe to use and draw influence from and the other isn't.
It's not letting me see the comment (stupid app), so I don't know which work specifically by Hasbro you're influenced by- but I'd say if it's one such as Friendship is Magic or Transformers- don't bother, that's dangerous territory. You're asking for legal trouble since the style is dependent on the design and worldbuilding of the characters (in these cases them being cute ponies/vehicle-humanoid robots in universes revolving around such beings). At best you'll be scoffed as a knockoff and at worst you'll get a cease and desist. Or, you could do what D&D (owned by wizards of the coast and therefore Hasbro) did and do the halfling/Hobbit thing, but that is an issue of its own, and it even cost Hasbro a lawsuit in the beginning.
Also do be noted that a style of drawing is *NOT* copyrightable as is a specific book, character, setting, film, or image. However of course, one can be sued for anything and large companies have an advantage (money, resources and money) over individuals. So you'll get sued if someone gets angry anyway. And if someone does sue you, an individual, even if you're fully in the right and win you'll have lost lots of money and time that could be spent advertising and selling your product. Is that worth it?

No.
The U.S. Constitution's Supremacy Clause essentially says federal law is supreme over state law. And the preemption doctrine means that "valid federal law will always displace state law, even a state constitutional provision that is inconsistent with that federal law.

Should we boot Turkey out of NATO for playing silly games regarding the acceptance of Sweden as a NATO member? If Turkey is more interested in fooling around in such serious matters, it cannot be a reliable NATO partner. | the question is unbelivebly redeculous and tells me that you have absolutely no idea about how NATO or politics actually work
-first NATO needs TURKEY more than the other way around turkey has the one of the strongest land military in the world and more importantly the strategic location that grants it control over some of the most important land and sea passes.
having this power under nato umbrella makes it without question the most dominating force in the world ….without it that will be questionable
-secondly TURKEY is doing something very justified ….frankly İf Sweden wanted to be part of the NATO it should send back the terrorists that it hosts ( they have the blood of turkish people on their hands ) and ban activities that hurts Muslims (similar to its ban over activities that hurts jewish people ) otherwise let them stay alone and afraid
-Nato is a defence union and every country should the safety of the other countries as part of its safety despite that minor problems might exist …..TURKEY hence is very justified in rejecting a country that didn't respect its safety
-Turkey hasn't violated any of the Nato rules
-you should instead wonder why Sweden cant behave like Finland which turkey doesn't object at all to its request
-macedonia had a problem with greece that was over naming and greece was blocking it from any international union when it can …did you object to that

What are your late growth spurt stories? | This is my half brother and I in 2008. I was 16. I didn't have my drivers license and I was still in high school. I still associated with my father then.
This is me in 2014 (on the right) with my daughter and friend Allison. At this point, I had dealt with PPD and had lost all of the “family” I thought I had in life. My fiance stood by me; even when I went as far as to move out (before this). He helped me through my depression, and encouraged me to be a better person.
This was me a little over a year ago. Obviously I was pregnant with my second daughter. Which helped me to give up bad habits; such as smoking.
This is my youngest and I about 10 minutes ago. I am now fitter and healthier than I have ever been. I trust in my body more, and am more intune to what is going on. I am more productive and a lot calmer it seems.

Should I buy a OnePlus 6 or a Samsung Galaxy S8? | Hello,
Below i will discuss how one plus 6 will beat Galaxy S8 in every aspect and why one should choose One plus 6 over Samsung S8
1: Cellular reception :- Both seems same and will work great
S8 :- HSPA 42.2/5.76 Mbps, LTE-A (5CA) Cat16 1024/150 Mbps
OP6 :- HSPA 42.2/5.76 Mbps, LTE-A (4CA) Cat16 1024/150 Mbps
2: Display :- Samsung is a King in terms of displays no other vendor can even match the quality of Samsung’s super amoled screen
S8 :-
Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors
5.8 inches, 84.8 cm
(~83.6% screen-to-body ratio)
1440 x 2960 pixels, 18.5:9 ratio (~570 ppi density)
OP6 :-
Optic AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors
6.28 inches, 98.4 cm
(~83.8% screen-to-body ratio)
1080 x 2280 pixels, 19:9 ratio (~402 ppi density)
BOTH PHONES COMES WITH CORNING GORILLA GLASS 5 UPFRONT AND BACK
3: Processor :- here things have changed now as the S8 is a flagship of last year and comes with Snapdragon 835 or Exynos 8895(Samsung’s home mfg chip) where as OP6 comes with Snapdragon 845 the most powerful chip for android currently.
S8 :-Exynos 8895 Octa Qualcomm MSM8998 Snapdragon 835 - octa core “ i am not going into deep architecture and clock rate”
OP6 :- Snapdragon 845 Globally, also Qualcomm claims the Snapdragon 845 has AI capabilities and video stabilization on 4k 60FPS
NOTE THE GAMERS WILL LOVE OP6 AS THE GPU IS READY TO TAKE THE EXPERIENCE UPTO NEXT LEVEL CLAIMS QUALCOMM.
4: ROM & RAM
S8 :- 64 GB, 4 GB RAM, Storage also expandable via MicroSD card
OP6 :- 128/256 GB, 8 GB RAM or 64 GB, 6 GB RAM, NO expansion
5: CAMERA’s :- Now no doubt OP 5T has impressed the audience and OP6 comes with better optics and much narrow aperture for low lighting shots, S8 is decent shooter too, however misses out the trendy portrait mode and other tweeks
S8:- 12 MP (f/1.7, 26mm, 1/2.5", 1.4µm, Dual Pixel PDAF), phase detection autofocus, OIS, LED flash
Front 8 MP f/1.7
OP6:- Dual: 16 MP (f/1.7, 27mm, 1/2.6", 1.22µm, gyro-EIS, OIS) + 20 MP (f/1.7, 1/2.8", 1.0µm)
Front 16 MP F2.0
BOTH THE PHONES HAVE 3.5 MM headphone JACK
Same Technology of Bluetooth can be seen on both 5.0 A2DP , LE.
6: Sensors :- And Here we can see a difference that samsung offers much more sensors
S8:- Iris scanner, fingerprint (rear-mounted), accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, barometer, heart rate, SpO2
OP6 :- Fingerprint (rear-mounted), accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass
BOTH THE PHONES COMES WITH TYPE-C REVERSIBLE PORT, HOWEVER S8 comes with Type c 3.1 and OP6 with 2.0.
7: Battery :- One plus dash charging is the best in the world when it comes to charge your phone from 0–100, no other smartphone can beat OP6 and even battery life is much better in OP6 the reason behind that is OP6 uses 1080 p panel of nearly 6.2 inch and S8 uses 2k panel both are amoled however there is marginal difference in screen size and due to smaller battery in S8 of just 3000mah wont win over OP6 which has 3300mah.
S8 Does support wireless charging that is still missing from OP6S8 is water resistant IP68 water and dust resistant OP6 doesnt claim any sort of water repellent coating.Better Audio output from Headphone Jack on S8 Because of 32bit DAC
Hope My lengthy answer would be worth the read, Thanks.

Why aren't bullets sharp? | Some bullets are sharp, others are rounded...depends on a number of factors. Pistol bullets tend to have a dull or even flat time for loading in magazines or cylinders. Rifle bullets are generally sharp (spritzer) to make loading easier, but not always, I have some 180 grain Winchester 308s with a blunt tip that are great for deer hunting.

Can an employer continue to ask for help once an employee has resigned? | I was a truckdriver for over 20 years working for myself I retired in 2017 due to medical reasons. At least twice a month my old broker will call looking for me to make a run cross country. He always asks me to help him out. Now I just ignore his calls.

Why did Melinda Gates say choosing to divorce Bill was her 'lowest moment? | “Why did Melinda Gates say choosing to divorce Bill was her 'lowest moment?”
A2a:
I would have to know Melinda intimately as a friend, to know the exact answer.
I can tell you as a divorcee myself, that the day I realized my marriage was a failure, was certainly my own lowest moment.
And I’ve suffered a number of very low moments in my life, including everything from a fiance cheating on me with my best friend, to another friend being murdered and chopped up by psychotics, to the death of my mother, father and sister all within a two year span. All of those were intensely painful, but the failure of my marriage was inherently tied to my sense of self, much more thoroughly than those other events.
