It is showing as compatible for this MacBook Pro but when I try to download the error message pops out that requested version of Mac OS is not available. then it checks for updates and shows the message as Your Mac is up to date.
I am currently using a MacBook Pro 13&quot; Mid 2018 with Touch Bar. Today macOS Big Sur was released and I tried to download it but it's getting stuck at 484.4 MB. Initially, it shows 16-17 minutes left, but as soon as it reaches 484.4 MB it's stuck and the timer goes till 10 hours! My Wi-Fi is totally stable with a speed of 100 Mbps. I tried to restart my Mac but it still gets stuck. Earlier there were similar issues in the App Store (even now they are). The issue was I was not able to download an app unless I connect to the US VPN. I even contacted support but they were not able to help out. It wasn't a big deal as a VPN could be used. But now even with VPN, it gets stuck.
Are getters and setters poor design? Contradictory advice seen Passing a variable to sed One of the drivers behind the 'Rule of Two' is that with fewer Sith, the dark side will become more concentrated in those users and they will be more powerful as a result.

Strange noise when moving files When I move files, a small 'noise' noise comes through my headphones or speakers.  It only happens when moving files.  Is there a reason why moving files causes this slight static?  It only lasts for as long as the files are moving.  I'm not as much as annoyed as I am curious.

String Comparison in Java How do I remove old kernel versions to clean up the boot menu? Every time I install a new Linux kernel, it gets left in the grub_config, making the boot menu longer each time.    I know I can manually search through the installed packages and remove them.  Does Ubuntu provide any easier way to clean them up or keep them from showing in the boot list? Math notation in LaTeX? How can I write e^(3j) in LaTeX?

I am having trouble figuring out when to use commas to set off &quot;nonessential&quot; information.  Sometimes it's obvious:  Bob, who is thirty years old, is an alcoholic.  But other times I'm not sure:  The day he quits drinking * he will start a llama farm He has his heart set on owning El Duderino ranch * in New Mexico.  In the first case, my ear says that there should be a comma at *, even though information before it seems essential to me.  In the second case, the stuff after * is not essential, and yet it seems a little much to use a comma. Even that last sentence I wrote confuses me.  &quot;In the second case&quot; seems essential but I used a comma.  Is this correct? Does it depend on personal style and the length of the clause?  Or perhaps I'm misinterpreting the meaning of &quot;essential&quot; in this context?

System Specs:  Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.40GHz × 8 Graphics: Gallium 0.4 on AMD TURKS (DRM 2.43.0, LLVM 3.6.2) OS Type: Ubuntu 15.10 64-bit I'm trying to determine the best way to truncate or drop extra decimal places in SQL without rounding.  For example:  declare @value decimal(18,2)  set @value = 123.456   This will automatically round @value to be 123.46, which is good in most cases.  However, for this project, I don't need that.  Is there a simple way to truncate the decimals I don't need?  I know I can use the left() function and convert back to a decimal.  Are there any other ways? Is it same number of candies for any stage of evolution while transferring pokemon to professor? I was just wondering if the number of candies we get while transferring the pokemon to professor is same for any stage of evolution ?   For example, you would get a pidgey candy for transferring a pidgey. Is it same number of candies for transferring pidgey, pidgeotto or pidgeot ? Problem:  Let $A_{n.n}$ be square complex matrix. Prove the following: $$\left \| A \right \|=\left \| A \right \|_{HS}\Leftrightarrow  rank(A)\leqslant 1$$. Where $\left \| . \right \|_{HS} $ is the Hilbert Schmidt Norm.  Please read my solution and tell me whether it is correct. If not, let me know where the mistake is.  Proof of the implication $\Leftarrow $:   If $rank(A)=0$, then in this case $A=0$. It follows that $\left \| A \right \|=\left \| A \right \|_{HS}=0$ If $rank(A)=1$, than: $ A=\begin{pmatrix} A_{1}\\  \alpha _{2}A_{1}\\  ...\\  \alpha _{n}A_{1} \end{pmatrix}$ where $A_{1}$ is the first row of $A$   and in this case: $\left \| A \right \|=\left \| A \right \|_{HS}=\left \| A_{1} \right \|\sqrt{1+\alpha _{1}^{2}+...+\alpha _{n}^{2}}$  Proof of the implication $\Rightarrow $   We know that $\left \| A \right \|=max_{\left \| x \right \|=1}\left \| Ax \right \|$  On the other hand: $ A=\begin{pmatrix} A_{1}\\  A_{2}\\  ... \\ A_{n}  \end{pmatrix}$. So, $$\left \| Ax \right \|=\left \| \begin{pmatrix} \left \langle A_{1},x \right \rangle\\  \left \langle A_{2},x \right \rangle\\  ...\\   \left \langle A_{n},x \right \rangle\end{pmatrix} \right \|=\sqrt{\left \langle A_{1},x \right \rangle^{2}+\left \langle A_{2},x \right \rangle^{2}+...+\left \langle A_{n},x \right \rangle^{2}} $$  Where $ \left \langle A_{i},x \right \rangle$ is the inner product of $A_{i}$ and $x$  Using the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality: $\left \langle A_{i},x \right \rangle^{2}\leq \left \| A_{i} \right \|^{2}\left \| x \right \|^{2}$, we get: $\left \| A \right \|=max_{\left \| x \right \|=1}\left \| Ax \right \|\leq max_{\left \| x \right \|=1}\left \| x \right \|\left \| A \right \|_{HS}=\left \| A \right \|_{HS}$. In order to have the equality: $\left \| A \right \|=\left \| A \right \|_{HS}$, we should have: $\left \langle A_{i},x \right \rangle^{2}=\left \| A_{i} \right \|^{2}\left \| x \right \|^{2} $ which occurs only if $A_{i}=\lambda _{i} x$. So, the rows of A are dependent, which implies that $rank(A)=1$. Note that the case $rank(A)=0$ happens when $A=0$  Please let me know if my solution makes sense. What PDF Editors are available on Ubuntu? I was wondering if there is a pdf reader-writer-publisher-editor that can add text, highlight, shapes and general edit an existing pdf document.  Something like Nitro in windows. This might be a duplicate of  but that question is 5 years old and unanswered.  When I'm in drive.google.com and I open a G Suite file (either double-click or select &amp; press enter) in Firefox it opens in a new window whereas in Chrome it opens in a new tab.   Why do they do that? Is this a browser-specific quirk or a Google setting (that I haven't found)? Is there a way to control the behavior? I'd like them both to open in tabs, but presumably the same answer would be relevant in the opposite direction too. Why does magnetic force vary in proportion to the cube of the distance instead of the square? Magnetic forces vary from gravity and electromagnetic radiation (such as light) in that gravity and radiation diminish by the square of the distance from the source, but magnetism diminishes by the cube of the distance.  Why is this? Am I going to have trouble flying without my full name on the ticket?
