Both signal that expectations raised by the preceding statement will be confounded to some extent by the following statement.   Do they differ in any way, e.g. by the extent of the confounding they signal?
I am not sure which conjunction to use in the following context:        I know about programming but I have a little bit of confusion in Java programming.   I know about programming although I have a little bit of confusion in programming.    I know about programming however I have a little bit of confusion in Java programming.
Flawed proof that all positive integers are equal Using biblatex and Biber, I want my bibliography to say "Ph.D. thesis" (with periods) rather than "PhD thesis" (without). MWE:  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{biblatex} \addbibresource{refs.bib} \begin{document} Hello \cite{testphd} \printbibliography \end{document}   and refs.bib:  @thesis{testphd,   title       = {Thesis Title},   author      = {Surname, Firstname},   date        = {2010},   institution = {Faculty of X, University of Y},   type        = {phdthesis},   location    = {Somewhere}, }   Output:    What's the easiest way to do this? I don't want to change the .bib file ideally. Reset the password in Ubuntu / Linux Bash in Windows I have installed Linux Bash on Windows 10 (available from Microsoft), but I've forgotten my password.  I've searched for a solution but I only find suggestions that involve doing something before the system boots, like accessing recovery mode, but that will not work in this case as this Ubuntu is just an application within a Windows system and doesn't have its own boot process.  How can I reset my password? Assuming i have a line that i want to add to a file without opening an editor.  How could i append this line  alias list='ls -cl --group-directories-first'   to this file  config.fish What is the distance a creature or player can travel if they have multiple types of movement speeds? Do gravitons interact with each other? I always thought the non-linearity of Einsteins field equations implies that there should be direct graviton-graviton interactions. But I stumbled upon  which argues:     If gravitons exist, then, like photons and unlike gluons, gravitons do   not interact with other particles of their kind. That is, gravitons   carry the force of gravitation but are not affected by it. This is   apparent due to gravity being the only thing which escapes from black   holes, in addition to having an infinite range and traveling in   straight lines, similarly to electromagnetism.   Is Wikipedia correct? If not, why not? And what then are the arguments that there must be graviton-graviton interactions?    (As of this question being asked, the above paragraph has been removed from Wikipedia.) Is it possible to construct a multi-colored double-bladed lightsaber? I was just watching  video of some SW dueling at the 2015 World Fencing Championship, and wondered if it's actually possible in the SW universe to construct a multi-colored double-bladed lightsaber?   Are there any accounts of such a thing? If not, would it at least be theoretically possible to make one, or, are there obvious limitations? Apache error "Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name" What software can I use to write on PDFs? I'm used to OS X where the system PDF viewer will let you draw and write text on top of any PDF document. You can then flatten it and save as a new PDF. It saves paper and time so you can fill in any form without printing it and scanning it back to the computer.  It also lets you insert a scanned image of your signature.  Is there software for Ubuntu that would do that? Whenever both my roommate and I use the wifi in a certain room in our apartment, it slows dramatically for me. It doesn't slow for him. If he uses it in another room, it's fine; if I use it in another room together with him, it's fine; it's just in this particular room. Does anyone know of a reason this could be? Can the 'bin size' in a histogram be thought of as a regularity constraint? Cancellation Law for Direct Sums - What is wrong with this argument? Resistance between two points in an infinite metal sphere/cube Let's imagine that we have a tridimensional metal object of infinite size, and decide to calculate the resistance between two arbitrary points. How would we go about doing this?  I have thought of two possibilities for calculating this, the first one being an adaptation of the conductivity (S/m) using the Pythagorean theorem to find a distance and isolating the resistance from there, treating it like we would treat an electrolytic liquid.  The second possibility I have been thinking about would be a 3-dimentional adaptation of the infinite-resistors problem (which I have only seen in 2d).  Would one of these methods result in giving a decent approximation, or would another method give better results? Should I use the datetime or timestamp data type in MySQL? Would you recommend using a  or a  field, and why (using MySQL)?   I'm working with PHP on the server side. Relative Pronouns are ALWAYS added right after antecedent? Is is a rule that relative clauses should be added right after the antecedent(the noun relative pronouns refer to)? What if it is confusing?   For example:  "I went for a spin with a handsome boy last night."  "The handsome boy went out with my friend."  "I went for a spin with a handsome boy who went out with my friend last night ."  "I went for a spin with a handsome boy last night who went out with my friend."
