Why not Google docs e.g. Spreadsheet?! You can access it from anywhere and any device. Or Trello like Dwayne suggested. Although for this specific case, I think that Trello would not suffice as you need both rows and columns. I thus give preference to Google Spreadsheet (which is Excel in the cloud).

I'm sort of struggling with the same concepts myself. I think the first thing is to do HTTPS only, so that it's starting out more secure than not. Next, it depends on how you're going to do authentication. If all you need is an API key, (to track which entity is accessing the data) that should be fine. If you also wan...
One option would be to use forms authentication and use the authentication cookie. Also, make sure all the service calls are being sent over SSL.

If you have a decent raid card then you don't need OS drivers, it presents the array as a single scsi disk. Also I question that you are actually using RAID1 appropriately if you want it in laptops, etc. It is not a substitute for backup.

I understand that hit points are linked to the "hit die". But is the hit die a constant number (for example: if my PC has 1d8 hit die, I have 8 HPs), or do I need to actually roll the die to see how many HPs I have?

**For player characters, hit die are rolled once for each hit die achieved.** Every time a PC acquires a new hit die (which is generally exactly once per level at the time of level-up), they roll the hit die and add the number rolled to their hit points (plus additional modifiers). For example, when a fighter gains a ...
Short answer: Hit die after the first can be rolled or you can just use the max value for the die when determining hit points. Overall it isnt too much of a power difference unless you are comparing someone who managed to roll all 1s versus all max values. Using the max value just alleviates player stress on something...

From a food safety perspective, if the chicken is hot throughout after cooking, you're almost certainly good to go.

**Should you be worried about "legal actions"?** Maybe. I deem unlikely that any jurisdiction has specific laws for you not attending a workshop (of course I am not a lawyer and you never know, maybe North Korea's..).

I'm not at your career stage, but I would be incensed if I got such a response. Granted, as already pointed out, your letter was sort of naive, but his level of rudeness was uncalled for.

Long short-term memory networks are fairly complicated and I haven't completely wrapped my head around them. It seems to me like the big gain in LSTMs for time series forecasting is the lacking necessity for lagged features: it determines on its own which lagged information is actually significant and remembers it f...

### TL;DR No, you don't have to include lagged variables when using an LSTM. ### Long Answer In an LSTM architecture, your neurons have not only an input gate and an output gate, but they also have a forget gate which causes them to *remember* values over multiple time intervals. So, you don't have to include any la...
Sadly, LSTMs are not perfect and including lagged variables does indeed improve model performance significantly as shown in [this blog post](https://medium.com/@dclengacher/lstms-with-lagged-data-cc03a3a8cfcf). This has also been observed in various Kaggle competitions. I would leave it to others who are more knowledg...

Every 1000 years or so you can expect a large "1000-year-flood" near large rivers. So it shouldn't shock anybody if the first few millenia of Sumer's history might have included one or two such big flood events. It is a *floodplain*, after all. Periodic floods were what make agriculture productive enough to create thei...

Actually try getting a new job. It is way better to negotiate for one while you still have the previous. Even if the new employer also knows *the rumors* (probably they do), you at least are going to pretend to be the one who is too good to stay in the sinking company, not the one who is too bad to be kept.

I don't know exactly what you are asking. Anyways, it is impossible for any particle to stop moving completely. If it stops the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics will be violated since in that case both position and its conjugate momentum of the particle will be known with certainty. therefore all particles ha...
Movement itself is a relative quantity. A particle at rest in one frame of reference is moving at a constant velocity in another frame of reference. Rest is never absolute. In many ways, particles will never stop moving. Not only is the universe undergoing expansion,but as long as energy is fundamental to our universe...
