  1. If an algorithm runs say SAT runs in polynomial time on a deterministic multi-track Turing machine through the use of parallelization with 2^n tapes is the algorithm in P?
  2. They aren't cheap but then I must have bought at least 1 umbrella a month this year so if it lasts then it would pay for itself. If not... then it is a waste of money. All weather gear is always an option but I need it for my work commute and it is not always appropriate for an office job (I suppose I could change when I get to work)
  3. There are really strong winds where I am from and they tend to destroy basically every umbrella I have bought including some from amazon that were supposedly rated for 60mph winds. All the big supermarket umbrellas Tesco/Dunnes etc don't last me a day. Is there anywhere I can buy an exceptionally windproof umbrella?
  4. I should add not asking too many questions, religious topics tend to get bad rep (since they tend to be opinionated) and I'm sure some of the questions you just posted can easily be googled.
  5. I find a lot of people here tend to be older so see simple questions as trolling, before asking a question see if you can google it first. Also try not having a strong opinion on things and keep your answers relevant to the topic question and not just reply to somebody else's comment.
  6. Alternatively he could be 90 and suffering from dementia etc? Repeating things heard when young is common in older people.
  7. Still not finding anything except videos to download it. https://youtu.be/oLG6AI6iQPE Looking for this specifically https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/test/assessments/windows-assessment-services-technical-reference Okay I found a video for the windows assessment client It still doesn't cover windows assessment services though but it is the most helpful video I have found so far.
  8. I am looking for windows assessment and deployment toolkit video tutorials. I have been able to find some videos on installing it but none that show how to use it.
  9. Lol. Neural network documentation is so overcomplicated. Let's imagine you want to make a computer that can play chess. You want to get from the computer not knowing how to play to playing very well but you don't know how to get there. What you can do is simply record the moves people make and record which moves result in a win. Then the computer can figure out the probability of winning based on how frequently a set of moves results in a win. Now we can use algorithms to simulate the people knowing all the possible moves and let the computer pick random moves instead. This is the basic idea of Neural Networks. You have many threads/processes dedicated to running simulations and working out probabilities of success which have been called neurons. You can use either people to input the data (like was used for ocr) or just generate it randomly both are neurons. Where this stuff gets interesting is say you have a patient with certain symptoms you could train an AI to read those symptoms and give probable diagnoses based on previous patients with similar symptoms etc.
  10. It is 12V. https://www.amazon.com/Hitachi-XL2000-2-0TB-2TB-SB2D-020-1HA/dp/B00G7JC8ZS/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1545190492&sr=1-1-fkmr0&keywords=hitachi+0S00214
  11. If it is really what you want to do then I can't stop you but maybe talk to your parent and teachers about it first before making a decision.
  12. How will that make you stand out when somebody has to decide between you and another candidate with equally high grades and references from lecturers, sport coaches, and music teachers? Sure you have the job but it will be hard to do a GED and a full-time job and if you leave the job or the employer dislikes you then you lose any references you might have.
  13. Then you aren't in highschool so you have no teachers and your parents will expect you to work. No it definitely isn't. A high school can provide you with a reference as they will have information from continuous assessment of you including your behaviour etc which will make a you a less risky choice to employers and colleges who would otherwise have little information other than an exam result.
  14. Awful idea then you are beholden to your employer and they can pay you peanuts. You could just try to graduate with a high GPA which will stand to you in the future. If you are really bored take an online course (most of which are only like $10 max) or take an interesting hobby like art or music, both of which are great assets for making diagrams and presentations useful for any career.
  15. Are they for sale? Might be a good investment since it is always raining here.
  16. Yeah I did that but my app uses a newer version of google play services than the emulator at the same API level (19) as my device has so the app won't start.
  17. There isn't an emulator with the same google play services version as my device and google play services can't be updated easily so it won't work.
  18. Okay so disabling the buttons showed that the latest dependencies had problems downloading. I changed dependencies { implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs') implementation 'com.firebase:firebase-jobdispatcher:0.8.5' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.3.4' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.5' implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:16.0.0' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:16.0.1' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:16.0.0' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.0.0' implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.3' implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.1' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.0.5' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-database:16.0.5' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore:17.1.3' testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12' implementation 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:27.1.1' implementation 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.8.4' implementation 'org.jboss.spec.javax.net.ssl:jboss-jsse-api_8.0_spec:1.0.0.Final' implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.71828' implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3' implementation 'com.facebook.android:facebook-login:[4,5)' } to dependencies { implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs') implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:design:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:cardview-v7:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:animated-vector-drawable:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:exifinterface:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:customtabs:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:support-media-compat:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:27.1.1' implementation 'com.android.support:multidex:1.0.3' implementation 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.1.3' implementation 'com.android.support:support-annotations:28.0.0' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:16.0.0' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:16.0.1' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-places:16.0.0' implementation 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:16.0.0' implementation 'com.firebase:firebase-jobdispatcher:0.8.5' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-messaging:17.3.4' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:16.0.4' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.0.5' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-database:16.0.4' implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-firestore:17.1.2' implementation 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.71828' implementation 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.38.1' testImplementation 'junit:junit:4.12' } and there is no longer errors in the emulator. I am still getting errors on my phone though but it is an old android version (4)
  19. That was a good idea so with the line numbers added I can see it is being thrown by setContentView(activity_login.xml) So that file is very basic. I just have <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" android:id="@+id/main_layout" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:background="@color/grey_100" android:orientation="vertical" android:weightSum="4"> <LinearLayout android:id="@+id/linearLayout" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" android:layout_margin="40dp" android:orientation="vertical" app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"> <TextView android:id="@+id/textView" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="72dp" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:layout_marginTop="40dp" android:layout_marginBottom="40dp" android:drawableStart="@mipmap/ic_launcher" android:drawablePadding="10dp" android:fontFamily="@font/tinos" android:text="@string/logo_title" android:textColor="#903" android:textSize="30sp" android:typeface="normal" tools:layout_editor_absoluteX="185dp" tools:layout_editor_absoluteY="32dp" /> <com.google.android.gms.common.SignInButton android:id="@+id/signInButton" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:visibility="visible" tools:visibility="gone"> </com.google.android.gms.common.SignInButton> <com.facebook.login.widget.LoginButton android:id="@+id/login_button" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" android:layout_marginTop="30dp" android:layout_marginBottom="30dp" /> </LinearLayout> </RelativeLayout> If I look at the error message it appears to be thrown as I am loading the google+ sign in button. (I am using google+ and facebook login)
  20. It isn't giving me a line number that is the annoying part. I can't just post it online because it is homework. I could add you to a private GitHub though.
  21. I am writing an android application and the debbuger is throwing and error. E/BitmapFactory: drm.service.enabled true Does anybody know how to get rid of the message properly? I was looking online but I couldn't find many references about that specific error I did see there is a drm library https://developer.android.com/reference/android/drm/package-summary so maybe enabling that would work. All the bitmaps used in my app were drawn by me.
  22. Of course but the shop will keep a copy of the transaction anyway. For instance I bought my phone in Tesco and lost the receipt then a couple of months later I had a problem with the phone. They know that the imei number on my phone matched a sale so I bought the phone. They also have my name and email address on record because I have a clubcard. With a paper receipt you have no security really. The shop can simply email you the receipt. Now the receipt way, you buy an expensive coat in three months time a thief steals it and damages the zip then prints a fake receipt. The thief can now go replace the coat in the shop for a new one with the fake receipt. Receipts are not as secure as printed notes which take expensive equipment they can easily be copied. Another example would be coffee coupons where you buy say four coffees and get 1 free. All a thief has to do is print a few coupons and they get free coffee.
  23. Receipts are a bad idea anyway. They aren't secure at all you can easily print a receipt but it is hard to fake a database entry on a secure server. Most stores keep digital records anyway to prevent fraud so it will get rid of the paper without much of an increase in electricity usage.
