This is something that's been bugging me for a while... So far I've been working around it by committing and pushing via terminal, but it would be nice to get it sorted. In Xcode, there are two remotes listed in the source control navigator of my project. [![](https://i.stack.imgur.com/euvKE.png)](https://i.stack.imgu...

Solution was to manually delete derived data.
If you don't have repo on remote and only showing in XCode then you can try this so that you won't lose any data, Where you can delete the remote it self. Not sure if it will work or not. [![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/hay9S.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/hay9S.png)

Can anybody please explain to me how "if p, then q" is logically equivalent to "q unless ~p" ? My problem is with all truth possibilities of p and q except for when both are true It seems in those situations they would not have the same logical meaning For e.g: "if p, then q" is true if p is false and q is true.

Usually, "**P** unless **Q**" is "symbolized as **P ∨ Q**. See : * Stephen Cole Kleene, [Mathematical logic](https://books.google.it/books?id=q-YEuuZ_j8EC&pg=PA64) (1967 - Dover ed 2002), page 64.

Now that you've edited the question, the two are indeed equivalent. Both are equivalent to "¬P or Q". The issue with understanding "unless" is that often when we hear it in ordinary English we interpret it to mean "unless and only unless", i.e. equivalent to the exclusive or. We often do the same with "if", i.e. we '...

Firefox and other browsers use a lot of CPU time and memory, however, since forcing us to use Snap Firefox, CPU time is through the roof. Way too much CPU time when viewing Youtube and other video sites. I hope this is being addressed.

It is not related to snap. Browsers use a lot of CPU time when rendering video, because accelerated by GPU video decoding is disabled for Linux for various reasons. It may change in some time. But this is not a place for feature requests.

I tested it before formatting, working fine, then I used "Disks" (pre-installed) to format it. After that, both my file managers (Nautilus and Nemo) can't find our mount it. And also, "Disks" still recognize it and work with it. What can be the problem?

You probably didn't format the card, you probably just somehow deleted your previous partitions. In order to make the sd card mountable again do this: Create a partition in the "Unallocated Space" for all of your sd card on disks. Name it whatever you want. Choose what it will be( I recommend FAT).
[jack0da's answer](https://askubuntu.com/a/855760/527764) may work but another issue that also comes up a lot is that the SD card isn't correctly placed in the port. Try shimmying it around or using an adapter if jack0da's answer doesn't work.

I sent a Bitcoin payment using Circle Pay. According to my Circle Pay the transaction is completed. It's been two days and the person on the other end is claiming they have not received the money.

Just check the address of the recipient on a blockchain explorer (e.g. <https://blockexplorer.com/>). If the address shows your payment as confirmed, it must have arrived. It may show, but still be marked as unconfirmed which would explain why the recipient states that they haven't received it yet.
Just lookup his public key on Blockchain.info and see if your payment is there. If it has arrived but is unconfirmed, it may be a symptom of all the trouble lately. Keep in touch with the seller and attempt to contact Circle Pat, they can probably re- send the exact same transaction ( with same ID) if it is stuck.

Yes. When an access token is requested using the current refresh token a new refresh token is also provided that will again have the 90 day (inactivity) limit.

What you can do is you can send the operation details from angular app to your hosted server. Then based on the operation details figure out which API needs to be called. The call that API from dotnet core. And send the result back to your client. So you hosting server acts as a gateway between the API and client. It...
That's to be expected, it's the client making the request and not the server. On the server where your Angular frontend is hosted create a simple proxy that receives API requests from the clients and then forwards them on to your internal server. You can write it in nearly any language that your server supports. Then...

My understanding (I'm not a wood carver) is that Basswood (at least in the US) is generally a good wood for carvers, it tends to not have a lot of character itself, fairly white, so can take most stains easily, not a lot of difference between summer wood and winter wood on the grains.

On all sequence diagrams, I include preconditions, summary, and postconditions in a single diagram note. This prevents lots of confusion and follow-up questions from reviewers. Preconditions include any required initialization and execution. In this case, a precondition could be "setup session scenario has run".

Regarding linq vs. stored procedures, you can have poor performance on either if you build it wrong. I moved to linq to sql some stored procedures of a client that ...

The only way to do this is to physically disconnect the Windows disk at the system. There's no real way to prohibit accessing the Windows drive if the system can see it.

There is actually a way to do that. You can edit the fstab in the /etc directory . First of all you must open the terminal. Then you must type 'sudo blkid'.

Okay , so as I got a comment on the previous solution by raj, there is another method to prevent this. And it is very simple. Just boot windows and encrypt the windows drive with windows bitlocker tool. This will atleast stop random disk read from the windows drive. Hope this one helps :)

As someone who has had a horrible life event, I would certainly have told an interviewer if I had an interview scheduled at that time. Most likely I would have asked to move the interview to the next week at the very least. Others might not however, thinking such things are private. However, the price you pay for priva...

A sphere might be harder to machine, but easiest to verify the accuracy of, especially when accounting for slight changes due to temperature.

Another reason that nobody David Richerby mentioned in a comment, is durability. The corner of a cube would be easy to accidentally break because a small force on it would equate to a large pressure (its area gets smaller as the shape of the cube gets more accurate).

My advice : * Because of HP ships their laptops with lots of bloatware, you should format that laptop and do a clean install of Windows 10 Home Edition 64 bit. * Use 'Autoruns' tool which is the part of 'Sysinternal Tools' from Microsoft to disable all unnecessary startup entries and services. You can search the inter...
**Browser Fix:** Try using Opera which has all tools Chrome can provide. **AV Fix:** Try disabling your anti-virus if not needed. **Performance Monitor:** Install Core Temp software to monitor heat issues. **Disk management Fix:** Give more space for C Drive.

The best performance booster on any PC is ***always*** more RAM. More of that much, much rather than a more powerful CPU. 4gB seems paltry for Windows. If you don't want to upgrade RAM, would you consider switching to Linux, where that would be more than enough? It has equivalent apps for all of those you list (except...

I'd say that the hard drive is your main issue here. They are outdated and usually PCs now come with SSDs or NVMEs (which is even better). There isn't much apart from things already mentioned by the top answer that you can do after buying such a laptop, as upgrading may be quite difficult. You'd need to open it up and ...

It may be worth considering a desktop Gadget which does a similar thing. Vista has sidebar gadgets which will do this, OS X has dashboard widgets which will do this, and Google Desktop has gadgets which will do this.
There are literally thousands of dictionary software which you can download or buy. I even have one on my phone. Its perfectly legal to create your own if you want to. However, unless you come up with some new invention to the existing plethora of software, it might be hard to find people willing to use it.

A user is using Autodesk Project Vasari 2, which provides training videos. The videos are blocked by the corporate firewall. Is there a method I can use to find out what URLs the application is trying to load? I can then pass this information on to the network admin to unblock.

Install the [wireshark](http://www.wireshark.org/). Pick a network interface and start capturing the network traffic. At first log level shows everything, but you could filter out the unnecessary parts. For starters, check out DNS requests, if that fails (they could be cached), check the TCP and UDP connections.
Use [CurrPorts](http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/cports.html). You can change the settings to show various connection types, or opt for URL or resolved name.

I would advise against installing WireShark as that's probably against company policy. Your system admin should be able to look at the proxy/firewall logs to find the blocked request. He/She would need your IP address and the time of the request to narrow down the search.

I think an easy way to figure out a character's "worth" is to use the total experience the character has. In this instance I think I would just take what the character's experience is and equate that to how much gold the character is worth, then add the value of the items he's carrying. So a lvl 2 character would be w...
I understand the desire to keep things a bit different but I would suggest against it. Our own group tried this concept for a particular section of a campaign a few years back. Now we did it as separate character sheets, though simplified., but what we found was that it really didn't work. For one, it became too much...
