The best time to travel is in the autumn.   The best time to travel is in autumn.      Which sentence is correct?
Notice these sentences:   Shops are open late in summer.   Summer is a traditionally viewed as a slow season for games.   At the summer solstice, the days are longest and the nights are shortest.   it's time to start thinking about what 2016's Song of the Summer will be.    In English class, they told us that "the" is used for the things that are known.  One example for this was a phrase like "The man who killed his wife".  So when we are speaking of that man, we know what he did. Somehow we know something more than nothing about him. He's not just every man in the world.     So Now I'm confused about why "the" is not used in the first and second sentences. Can anyone please explain it for me?
Subsample of a random sample: random sample? $\mathbb Z[1/2]$ is not finitely generated ?   Maybe I misunderstood, what finitely generated means.  it says, we need finitely many elements and I think $1$ and $1/2$ suffices as generators.  But , at the end of Proposition $5.1.4$, from the fact that $\mathbb Z[1/2]$ is not finitely generated it is concluded that $1/2$ is not integral. Installing Ubuntu from a partition on internal drive I am about to install Ubuntu on my new laptop, but I don't have access to a USB drive of any sort and it doesn't have an optical drive. Would it be possible to boot into the Ubuntu installer if I save it to a new partition on my hard drive and boot from there via the BIOS?  In case you need it, , which lists my system specifications.  Thanks in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide. :) Can you update to macOS 10.14 (Mojave) without converting to APFS? At WWDC 2018 macOS 10.14 or macOS Mojave was disclosed.  I am currently on macOS Sierra (10.12) and am looking forward to upgrading to macOS Mojave once its released.  I was wondering if it will be possible to update to macOS Mojave without converting to APFS, similar to  trick from OS X Daily on how to upgrade to macOS High Sierra (10.13) without converting to APFS with the command /Applications/Install\ macOS\ High\ Sierra.app/Contents/Resources/startosinstall --converttoapfs NO. What is the different between an Normal user account and the Admin account in Ubuntu?  You must always enter your password if you want do something. Can you give a Normal account  "limitations" to do not install or remove anything or to not open any program? Can you also "hide/deactive" the terminal and console for a normal user?

Function with same name but different signature in derived class Wikipedia mentions several English words that have been :   Anime comes from animation and has been reborrowed into English to mean Japanese-style animation. Puroresu comes from professional wrestling and is a term for Japanese-style professional wrestling. Kosupure comes from cosplay (an abbreviation of costume play) and refers to the practice of dressing in costumes of anime and video game characters.    Do you know other examples of word reborrowings from Japanese or other languages back into English, or vice versa? How create Redirect pattern from old to new URLs? D7: I'm going to update an articles path pattern (/articles/[node:uid] → /post/[new tokens]) but I need redirect users from old path to new one using tokens. And I don't know how to do that.  I tried using the , but it allows set only separate URL for each node; no group redirect patterns are allowed. Also the  doesn't allow to set patterns. How can I achieve this?    The problem partially solves by applying "Update url alias" option in admin/content. I do not find out how to show all selected type nodes at one page without pages, because it is terrible slow applying option page by page. Anyway, by this way, old aliases still exist, work, and don't redirect to new aliases. If $a_n$ is a strictly increasing unbounded sequence, does $\sum_n \frac{a_{n+1} - a_n}{a_n}$ diverge? So I've been thinking through some test cases. If $a_n = n$ then $\sum_n \frac{a_{n+1} - a_n}{a_n}$ is the harmonic series which diverges. And if $a_n = \sum_{k=1}^n 1/k$ then $\sum_n \frac{a_{n+1} - a_n}{a_n}$ diverges like $\sum_n 1/(n \log n)$. So that got me thinking, if $a_n$ is a strictly increasing unbounded sequence, does $\sum_n \frac{a_{n+1} - a_n}{a_n}$ necessarily diverge? How do I render nodes, now that node_view() has been deprecated? In Drupal 7 I frequently use node_view() for rendering nodes (using view modes) in blocks or pages as follows:  $nids = array(123,456,789); $nodes = node_load_multiple($nids); foreach ($nodes as $node) {   $node_view = node_view($node, 'teaser');   $output .= drupal_render($node_view); } $build['nodes']['#markup'] = $output; return $build;   node_view()/entity_view() has been deprecated and replaced by a view builder as explained in change record . The information is not detailed enough for me to be able to figure out how to achieve the same result.  How can you render nodes in Drupal 8 so that the output can be used in the render array of a block or page? The  is the stuff of legend () and is . My question is two-fold, really: Is the Golden Ratio really a good tool used in modern design (defined here as 20th century on forward), and if so, how often is it used outside of the aforementioned known uses?  EDIT: To @e100's first comment, examples of modern use of the Golden Ratio would be a great thing to add here if there any documented or arguably conclusive uses of it. I am afraid that listing doesn't support javascript.  \begin{lstlisting}[language=javascript] ... \end{lstlisting}   What am I doing wrong? I am having an issue where DHCP (I though as I read in other similar topics) is clearing the /etc/resolv.conf file on each boot. I am not sure about how to deal with this since the post I have found (,  and some others) are for Debian based distros or other but not Fedora.  This is the output of ifcfg-enp0s31f6 so for sure is DHCP:  cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s31f6  HWADDR=C8:5B:76:1A:8E:55 TYPE=Ethernet DEFROUTE=yes IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=no IPV6INIT=no IPV6_AUTOCONF=no IPV6_DEFROUTE=no IPV6_FAILURE_FATAL=no IPV6_ADDR_GEN_MODE=stable-privacy NAME=enp0s31f6 UUID=0af812a3-ac8e-32a0-887d-10884872d6c7 ONBOOT=yes IPV6_PEERDNS=no IPV6_PEERROUTES=no BOOTPROTO=dhcp PEERDNS=yes PEERROUTES=yes   In the other side I don't know if Network Manager is doing something else around this.

All odd primes except $5$ divide a number made up of all $1$s Okay, so I have worked on this problem and even though I can see it is true I just don't know how to show it.  Here it goes.

Post apocalyptic journey in search of knowledge from fallen society (ours) I'm racking my memory for a post-apocalyptic novel that I borrowed from a library maybe 15 years ago, but I'm sure it was published a few years before that though (maybe early 90s?).  I remember a party of people travelling across the flooded USA after some kind of apocalypse (climate change/flooding?). Towards the end of the book the group makes their way to New York(?) and finds a partially flooded library, discovering a set of books that gives hope for the return/rebuilding of society. Combinatorics riddle: keys and a safe There are 8 crew members, The leading member wants that only a crew of 5 people or more could open a safe he bought, To each member he gave equal amount of keys, and locked the safe with several locks.  What's the minimal number of locks he should put:   at least 5 crew members would be required to open the safe? Any team of 5 crew members could open the safe, but none of the 4 team crew members.   1,2 stands individually of course. How do I use subprocess.Popen to connect multiple processes by pipes? How do I execute the following shell command using the Python  module?  echo "input data" | awk -f script.awk | sort &gt; outfile.txt   The input data will come from a string, so I don't actually need echo.  I've got this far, can anyone explain how I get it to pipe through sort too?  p_awk = subprocess.Popen(["awk","-f","script.awk"],                           stdin=subprocess.PIPE,                           stdout=file("outfile.txt", "w")) p_awk.communicate( "input data" )   UPDATE:  Note that while the accepted answer below doesn't actually answer the question as asked, I believe S.Lott is right and it's better to avoid having to solve that problem in the first place!
