When D. T. Suzuki came to this country later, he said he had a great realization contemplating the Japanese expression, “The elbow does not bend backwards.” The idea is that the elbow only bends inward, bends one way. Is that a limitation of the elbow? Is it a defect? That a really good elbow would bend both ways? Is it a design flaw that we’re stuck with? Instead, it’s a matter of seeing the particular irony in what we would think of as a limitation rather, as a definition, a part of what we intrinsically are, and freedom is not a question of being able to do something, to do anything whatsoever, but to fully function within our design and our capacity.

comment - the contradiction of our life is that - the infinite and the finite exist in the same mortal coil - this consciousness which is capable of unlimited imagination - is housed in a fragile, time-limited body - Yet all life exists in the concrete form of living / dying individual's housed in bounded, albeit dynamic bodies - Each of us takes on a unique and specific morphological form, determined by the genetic material passed on to us intergenerationally - Each individual belongs to a unique species, a unique replicable template that is unique - And yet, all life derives from the same reality - So each species, and all individuals belonging to each species, have unique bounded bodies - While that universal wisdom articulates itself uniquely in each species and each individual of a species, it is nonetheless a universal wisdom behind it all - So the elbow does not bend backwards in the human - and the wings flutter only one way in birds - and the fins only project one way in fish - etc, etc.... - Can we trace ourselves from the perceived limited - all the way back to the unlimited infinite? - To be or not to be, that is the question - To be AND not to be, that is the answer

Describe how youcould incorporate this information into your analysis.
Flag: suggested answer (don't read if don't want to see a (possibly incorrect) attempt:
Update - realise some bi-modal continuous distribution may be better (but potentially difficult to perform the update)
Attempt: we model the parameter pi in a Bayesian way: we put a distribution on pi (0.7 w.p 1/2, 0.2 w.p 1/2) then we weight the 1/2 with the likelihood of the observations, given that parameter (i.e. what is the likleihood when pi = 0.7, multiply that by 1/2 then divide by the normalizing constant to get our new probability for pi = 0.7 (do the same for pi = 0.2, the normalizing constant is the sum of the 'scores' for 0.7 and 0.2 i.e. 1/2 * likelihood so we can't 'divide by the normalising constant until we have the score for both 0.2 and 0.7)

Grateful for comments here as I am not very certain on the situations that the MLE approach is better vs situations where Bayesian approach is better
Suggested answer:
c(i) Is frequentist approach where we have one parameter estimate (the MLE) c(ii) bayesian approach - distribution over parameters and we update our prior belief based on observations If we have no prior belief - c(i) may be a better estimate (i.e. in (my version of) c(ii) we are constraining the parameters to be 0.7 or 0.2 and updating our relative convictions about these - which is a strong prior asssumption (we can never have 0.5 for instance) If we do have prior belief and also want to incorporate uncertainty estimations in our parameters, I think c(ii) is better If the MLE is 0.7 then we will have c(i) giving 0.7 and c(ii) giving 0.7 with a very high probability and 0/2 with a very low probability to the methods will perform similarly

If you thought that this assumption was unrealistic, howwould you relax this assumption
Flag: Don't read if don't want to see a (possibly incorrect) attempt of an answer: (Grateful for any comments/disagreements, further points to add)
Attempted answer: Assumption is that, given a class, features are independent. We could relax this by using 2-d gaussians for our class distributions that have non-zero covariance (off-diagonal) terms so that we have dependencies between features (currently we have these set to zero for independence)

The analysis presented in this ar-ticle offers some starting points for potentially fruitful dialogue.
This article contributes to the development of LIS literature by highlighting a blind-spot which exists in popular conversation around libraries. It also goes a step further and highlights how those blind-spots fall short of desired outcomes, and offers them as points of discussion to develop ideas around the best implementation of makerspaces into libraries, and ultimately still argues for their existence.

Willett has conducted research on children’s media cultures, focusing onissues of gender, play, literacy, and learning. Her most recent research examines maker-focusedprogramming in the Madison Public Library system, with a specific focus on learning throughmaking. Her publications include work on playground games, amateur camcorder cultures, youngpeople’s online activities, and children’s story writing. Before moving to Madison, Willett was alecturer at the Institute of Education, University of London, and a researcher in the Centre for theStudy of Children, Youth and Media.

Dr. Rebekah Willett is a professor at the Information School of the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She received a PhD in Education from the University of London, and she researches a variety of topics relevant to this article, including childhood studies, new literacies, and public library makerspaces (Willett, Rebekah, 2017).

As the makerspace movement in public librariesprogresses, these tensions and questions potentially offer space for dialogue about aims, pur-poses, and best practices in relation to making and makers.
The author concludes that while there are problems that arise from the contradictory and often under-baked reasonings that push for maker education, wrestling with these concerns directly can only lead to a more focused vision for how best to utilize makerspaces and maker education for specific learning goals.
-
. In thediscursive construction of creativity, the analysis reveals an emphasis on productive outcomesof creative efforts, positioning makers as designers, engineers, and the like, and raising ques-tions about other kinds of making that might be ignored in makerspaces. Finally, when dis-cussing learning, the analysis argues that polarized accounts present in the data set positionformal educational content, styles, and pedagogies in negative ways and oversimplify thedistinctions between formal and informal learning settings.
This analysis finds that often, discussions of makerspaces in educational and library settings are contradictory, disjointed, and lack evidence to support their claims.
-
Using discourse analysis, the article identifies “interpretative repertoires” (Gil-bert and Mulkay 1984) and linguistic resources that are employed by the authors of profes-sional journal articles and blogs and that characterize makerspaces in particular ways. In atheory of discourse, librarians who identify themselves within these discursive constructsbecome subjects of those discourses, thus reproducing particular ways of thinking aboutmakerspaces
While not a typical empirical research article, there is a methodology used for identifying relevant sources for its literature review and analyzing those sources.
-
this article reveals howcommon themes are being discursively constructed in relation to the future of public libraries,maker cultures, and informal learning. The analysis highlights tensions and questions thatemerge through the discursive construction of making, makers, and makerspaces in the field oflibrary and information studies. The article employs discourse analysis to examine professionallibrary journal articles and blog posts published from 2011–14 that focus on makerspaces inpublic libraries.
This section of the abstract highlights that the article is a literature review that will be looking at other published articles on Maker education
-
The analysis in this article reveals how key themes—the future of public libraries, DIY andmaker cultures, and informal learning—are being constructed in current discussions aboutmakerspaces in public libraries
This first line of the conclusion succinctly relays the purpose of this article - to collect, analyze, and discuss common themes and conclusions in conversations and research around Maker education in libraries.

This limits their usability in domains or protocols that are human-centric or equivalently that only support ASCII text-printable characters RFC20.

adjacency - between - answer - synchronicity - lower level example - two neurons talking to each other - Michael Levin - Mark Solms foundational theory of affect - adjacency relationship - This is a very interesting question and Michael Levin provides a very interesting answer - First, it is very interesting that Mark Solms points out that affect is foundational to cognition - This is evident once we begin to think of the fundamental goals of any individual of any species is to optimize survival - The positive or negative affects that we feel are a feedback signal that measures how successful we are in our efforts to survive - Hence, it is more accurate to ask: - How do you know if and when you are part of a larger affective-cognitive system? - Levin illustrates the multi-level nature of simultaneous consciousness by looking at two neurons "in dialogue" with each other, and potentially speculating about a "higher level of consciousness", which is in fact, the level you and I operate at and take for granted - This speculative question is very important for it also can be generalized to the next layer up, - Do collectives of humans, each one experiencing itself a unified, cohesive inner perspective, constitute a higher level "collective consciousness"? - If we humans experience feelings and thinking whilst we have a well defined physical body, then - what does a society feel and think whilst not having such a well defined physical body?

But anti- spam software often fetches all resources in mail header fields automatically, without any action by the user, and there is no mechanical way for a sender to tell whether a request was made automatically by anti-spam software or manually requested by a user. To prevent accidental unsubscriptions, senders return landing pages with a confirmation step to finish the unsubscribe request. A live user would recognize and act on this confirmation step, but an automated system would not. That makes the unsubscription process more complex than a single click.

How do publishers design and organize content for their audience and purpose?
I will just say this: there are both tried and true and normed audiences and purposes as well as dynamic and non-evergreen contents. This is vague I understand but the kinds of content in social media is always changing. When the algorithm changes so, too, does the shape and style of content. I don't know if the larger values, audience and purpose, change, but I suspect the even larger ones like empathy are super evergreen. Sorry. I wish I had more time to make this shorter.

How do readers and writers determine and develop relevant, accurate, and complete topics/content?
Here is how I do it:
- Listen and sense the kinesthetic tickle of being on the trail of something that answers an important question. Knowing has a 'feel' to it.
- Adopt the attitude of many futurists: strong opinions, loosely held. Practically speaking, this means that our potential answers to these big questions are filtered through these strong opinions, but that we can change the filters if we remain open to it.
- Share with networks from the inners (personal and face-to-face) to the outers (often many degrees of separation beyond).

If ,z=f(x)+yg(x), what can we say about ?zyy? zyy=0 zyy=y zyy=zxx zyy=g(x) We cannot say anything
if we solve this second order derivative with respect to y we get 0 + g(x) for our first derivative because we are to treat it as a constant. when we take the second derivative of this with respect to y we simply get 0. This is because the derivative of any constant is 0.

Suppose the displacement of a particle in motion at time t is given by the parametric equations x(t)=(3t−1)2,y(t)=7,z(t)=54t3−27t2. (a) Find the speed of the particle when .
A) what we havew to do to find the speed first given the particle motion is derive x(t), y(t), z(t). this gives us x'(t) = 18t-6, y'(t) = 0, z'(t) = 162x^2 - 54t. for when the speed is t=3 we plug 3 for t. this gives us 48,0,1296. noe we take the magnitude of this which is Sqrt((48)^2 + (0)^2 + (1298)^2 = 1298.0123 so the speed of this particle at t=3 is 1298.0123

Based on what we know is parallel, this direction vector is not parallel to the x-axis.

5. Suppose parametric equations for the line segment between (9,−6) and (−2,5) have the form: x=a+bty=c+dt If the parametric curve starts at (9,−6) when t=0 and ends at (−2,5) at ,t=1, then find ,a, ,b, ,c, and .d. a= , b= , c= , d= .
Using the given equations, our A and C values are simply the respective x,y values for when our curve starts
To find B and D, we take the x,y values of the ending of the curve and subtract the x,y values at the beginning of the curve respectively.

Find a⋅b if |a| = 7, |b| = 7, and the angle between a and b is −π10 radians.
We know the formula a.b=|a||b| cos(theta)
we are given |a|, |b| and cos so this becomes a lot easier.
a.b = (7)(7) cos(-pi/10)
a.b = (49) (0.951)
a.b = 46.602

The angle between the vectors y=⟨1,2,−3⟩ and z=⟨−2,1,1⟩ to the nearest tenth of a degree.
To determine the angle of these two vectors, we use the provided equation 9.3.1
Lets first calculate the length of each of the provided vectors
|y| = sqrt(1^2 + 2^2 + (-3)^2) = sqrt(14), |z| = sqrt((-2)^2 + 1^2 + 1^2) = sqrt(6)
Now let's calculate the dot product of U and V: U.V = 1x-2 + 2x1 + -3x1 = -3
Now we solve for the angle. We have... theta = cos^-1 ((-3)/sqrt(6) x sqrt(14))
We get 109.106 degrees

TypeScript is an extension of JavaScript. You can think of it as JavaScript with a few extra features. These features are largely focused on defining the type and shape of JavaScript objects. It requires that you be declarative about the code you're writing and have an understanding of the values your functions, variables, and objects are expecting.While it requires more code, TypeScript is a fantastic means of catching common JavaScript bugs while in development. And for just that reason, it's worth the extra characters.

Webpack's resolve.mainFields option determines which fields in package.json are used to resolve identifiers. If you're using Svelte components installed from npm, you should specify this option so that your app can use the original component source code, rather than consuming the already-compiled version (which is less efficient).

According to Netflix, the Netflix app asks this question to prevent users from wasting bandwidth by keeping a show playing that they’re not watching. This is especially true if you’re watching Netflix on your phone through mobile data. Every megabyte is valuable, considering that network providers impose strict data limits and may charge exorbitant rates for data used on top of your phone plan. Advertisement tmntag.cmd.push(function(){tmntag.adTag('purch_Y_C_0_1', false);}); Of course, this saves Netflix bandwidth, too—if you fall asleep or just leave the room while watching Netflix, it will automatically stop playing rather than streaming until you stop it. Netflix also says this helps ensure you don’t lose your position in a series when you resume it. If you fall asleep in the middle of your binging session, you might wake up to find that several hours of episodes have played since you stopped watching. It will be difficult for you to remember when you left off.

As for why - a GET can be cached and in a browser, refreshed. Over and over and over. This means that if you make the same GET again, you will insert into your database again. Consider what this may mean if the GET becomes a link and it gets crawled by a search engine. You will have your database full of duplicate data.

Your attempt should work. There is a mismatch in column name in your query though. The query uses col2 but the table is defined with col1.
I would actually lean towards making this a comment, at least the typo fix part. But if you remove the typo fix part, all that's left is "should work", which I guess should be a comment too since it's too short to be an answer.

It follows from the foregoing considerations that the requirement of independence that has to be satisfied by the authority entrusted with carrying out the prior review referred to in paragraph 51 of the present judgment means that that authority must be a third party in relation to the authority which requests access to the data, in order that the former is able to carry out the review objectively and impartially and free from any external influence. In particular, in the criminal field, as the Advocate General has observed, in essence, in point 126 of his Opinion, the requirement of independence entails that the authority entrusted with the prior review, first, must not be involved in the conduct of the criminal investigation in question and, second, has a neutral stance vis-à-vis the parties to the criminal proceedings.
-
the answer to the third question referred for a preliminary ruling is that Article 15(1) of Directive 2002/58, read in the light of Articles 7, 8 and 11 and Article 52(1) of the Charter, must be interpreted as precluding national legislation that confers upon the public prosecutor’s office, whose task is to direct the criminal pre-trial procedure and to bring, where appropriate, the public prosecution in subsequent proceedings, the power to authorise access of a public authority to traffic and location data for the purposes of a criminal investigation.

In the light of all the foregoing considerations, the answer to the questions referred is that Article 5 of Directive 77/249 must be interpreted as meaning that:– it does not preclude, as such, in the light of the objective of the proper administration of justice, a lawyer, provider of representation services in respect of his or her client, from being required to work in conjunction with a lawyer who practises before the judicial authority in question and who would be responsible, if necessary, towards that judicial authority, under a system placing lawyers under ethical and procedural obligations such as that of submitting to the judicial authority in question any legal element, whether legislative or case-law-based, for the purposes of the proper course of the procedure, from which the litigant is exempt if he or she decides to conduct his or her own defence;– the obligation for a visiting lawyer to work in conjunction with a lawyer who practises before the judicial authority in question, in a system in which the latter have the possibility of defining their respective roles, the sole purpose of the lawyer who practises before the judicial authority in question being, as a general rule, to assist the visiting lawyer to ensure the proper representation of their client and the proper fulfilment of his or her duties to that judicial authority is not disproportionate, in the light of the objective of the proper administration of justice;– a general obligation to work in conjunction with a lawyer who practises before the judicial authority in question which does not allow account to be taken of the experience of the visiting lawyer would go beyond what is necessary in order to attain the objective of the proper administration of justice.

The reason Final Form does this is so that pristine will be true if you start with an uninitialized form field (i.e. value === undefined), type into it (pristine is now false), and then empty the form field. In this case, pristine should return to true, but the value that the HTML DOM gives for that input is ''. If Final Form did not treat '' and undefined as the same, any field that was ever typed in would forever be dirty, no matter what the user did.

Why is CORS important? Currently, client-side scripts (e.g., JavaScript) are prevented from accessing much of the Web of Linked Data due to "same origin" restrictions implemented in all major Web browsers. While enabling such access is important for all data, it is especially important for Linked Open Data and related services; without this, our data simply is not open to all clients. If you have public data which doesn't use require cookie or session based authentication to see, then please consider opening it up for universal JavaScript/browser access. For CORS access to anything other than simple, non auth protected resources

Why Vala? Many developers want to write GNOME applications and libraries in high-level programming languages but can't or don't want to use C# or Java for various reasons, so they are stuck with C without syntax support for the GObject type system. The Vala compiler allows developers to write complex object-oriented code rapidly while maintaining a standard C API and ABI and keeping the memory requirements low.

These are valid comments. I think it is worth noting that svelte didn’t choose a non-javascript method for fun or because we think we should redesign the language. The additional constructs, for the most part, are there to allow svelte to more clearly work out exactly what is going on in the code in order to optimise. In short svelte needs a certain amount of information to do what it does and pure javascript is often difficult to analyse in this way. But I appreciate your concerns and comments and we try to take all feedback on board where we can. So thank you!

I really dont need a solution to this problem! I can find many workararounds
Actually, the answer that was given was a good answer, as it pointed to the problem: It was a reminder that you need to:
assign to a locally declared variable.
So I'm not sure the answer was intended to "just" be a solution/workaround, but to help correct or fill in the misunderstanding / forgotten piece of the puzzle to help OP realize why it wasn't working, and realize how reactivity is designed to work (based on assignments).
It was a very simplified answer, but it was meant to point in the right direction.
Indeed, it pointed to this main point that was explained in more detail by @rixo later:

Why do we use bundlers again?Historically, bundlers have been used in order to support CommonJS files in the browser, by concatenating them all into a single file. Bundlers detected usages of require() and module.exports and wrap them all with a lightweight CommonJS runtime. Other benefits were allowing you to serve your app as a single file, rather than having the user download several scripts which can be more time consuming.

Then when giving answers I'm even less certain. For example I see occasional how-to questions which (IMO) are ridiculously complex in bash, awk, sed, etc. but trivial in python, (<10 lines, no non-standard libraries). On such questions I wait and see if other answers are forthcoming. But if they get no answers, I'm not sure if I should give my 10 lines of python or not.
-
There is an observable widespread tendency to give an awk answer to almost everything, but that should not be inferred as a rule to be followed, and if there's (say) a Python answer that involves less programming then surely that is quite on point as an answer for a readership of users.

Ai Khanoum looked like the other royal cities of the Hellenistic Near East, where a new architecture had developed as early as the beginning of the third century, under the initiative of the Seleucid kings. This architecture was eclectic and was characterized by a synthesis of various influences coming from all over the Mediterranean world, but particularly from Mesopotamia and the Iranian plateau.
Answer to Study Question 26.
-
All the roofs were flat, as was usual in the Orient and central Asia. Very few were completely covered with tiles; rather, just two or three rows of tiles were placed along the roof edge. All the walls were constructed from mudbricks, even those of the public buildings, which is uncommon in the Greek world. The floors were made of beaten earth and covered with carpets, per local custom. Many col-umn bases were eastern in style and had a large torus on the plinth, a feature widely used in Achaemenid architecture. A campaniform base was also discovered inside the palace foundations.
Answer to Study Question 25.

The main canal, which brought water into the city, flowed alongside this street, after entering near the north edge of the acropolis and running along its lowest slopes. This watercourse was needed to supply water to the south-ern part of the city.
Answer to Study Question 15.
-
This street played a structuring role in the urbanism of the city, since most of the buildings, ex-cept for the palace, were oriented along it. The same orientation characterized the Darya-i Pandj and the natural features. The decision to build the street near the foot of the acropolis rather than in the lower city may seem surprising. According to Bernard, it allowed a large space for public buildings, especially for the palace.
