The Crossbow Expert Feat has three clauses:     Thanks to extensive practice with the crossbow, you   gain the fol lowing benefits:      • You ignore the loading quality of crossbows with which you are proficient.      • Being withing 5 feet of a hostile creature doesn't impose disadvantage on your ranged attack rolls.      • When you use the Attack action and attack with a one-handed weapon, you can use a bonus action to attack with a loaded hand crossbow you are holding.   I'm looking at the second clause in particular:      Being withing 5 feet of a hostile creature doesn't impose disadvantage on your ranged attack rolls.   Note that it doesn't say "Being withing 5 feet of a hostile creature doesn't impose disadvantage on your ranged attack roles that you make with a crossbow."  That being said, does this clause only apply to ranged attack roles that you make with a crossbow? I would assume so, but why doesn't it say it?
The Crossbow Expert feat gives three benefits, the first of which is explicitly tied to crossbows and the last of which to only hand crossbows. But in the middle, there is:     Being within 5 feet of a hostile creature doesn't impose disadvantage on your ranged attack rolls   Notably missing is a qualifier like "when attacking with a crossbow". Does this mean that the benefit applies to other ranged weapons and to spells which require ranged attack rolls? Or does the name of the feat itself limit this to  crossbows?
The summer training or (just) summer training Should we use the summer training or just summer training in the paragraph. As per me training is a noun and before singular noun we have to use an article and I am using the because I am talking about a specific training for engineers, I also know that before very common nouns we avoid articles, like bed, school, bus, university, so if you say we should use summer training then please give me a valid reason.     Company(name) has been providing the summer training for engineers   since 2010. We have been giving completely professional atmosphere for   engineers to complete the summer training with practical knowledge.   Our each faculty has a great experience in the education field. We   make sure you get all the important resources to make your summer   training a learning and an enjoyable summer training. You may call or   email us to get your confirmation about the training.   Thanks in advance. We have been asked to prove the above statement through the two sub-proofs:   Firstly we must prove that $e^x$ is increasing and then prove that $\log(x)$ is also an increasing function.   After we are asked to prove that using the delta-epsilion definition of a limit that $\lim_{x \to 0} e^x = 1$.   I have done all of this but still don't see where the instructor is going with this. I am a grad student developing an interest for statistics. I like the material over-all, but I sometimes have a hard time thinking about applications to real life. Specifically, my question is about commonly used statistical distributions (normal - beta- gamma etc.). I guess for some cases I get the particular properties that make the distribution quite nice - memoryless property of exponential for example. But for many other cases, I don't have an intuition about both the importance and application areas of the common distributions that we see in textbooks.   There are probably a lot of good sources addressing my concerns, I would be glad if you could share those. I would be a lot more motivated into the material if I could associate it with real-life examples. When I am in texture mode one of my objects looks like it is in solid mode. The model is textured like all other models in the scene, but it doesn't look like it is in texture mode.  Screenshot will explain better:      What this model looks like. What all models should look like in texture mode. Textbook recommendations for self-studying high school math? I'm a high school student who is trying to figure out a complete course of self-study for each year of high school. How can I self-learn grades of math without devoting too much time? This is a complex issue for me, as other students at my competitive high school have tutors and the like. Please recommend textbooks that have detailed explanations and progressive practice problems, for self-study for each area such as:  Algebra  Geometry  Trigonometry and Analytic Algebra  Pre-calculus  BC Calculus  Other people have skipped grades of math due to help from tutors and parents. Can I cover all of geometry and trigonometry in 8 months without going insane and be able to skip a grade? Will spoiled food always make you sick? What happens with lethargy when Haste is cast again on a creature before first cast runs out? Haste states     When the spell ends, the target can't move or take actions until after its next turn, as a wave of lethargy sweeps over it.   However, let's say Character A cast Haste on Character B. In the 10th round (final round of haste if concentration not broken), Character B casts Haste on himself.  What happens during the next round?    Do they lose a round of the "new" haste while they are lethargic and lose movement and actions? Does the new haste override the lethargy until it ends? Is it some combination? Retain AC/Dex modifications but lose actions/movement? None of the above? A friend of mine accidentally left a carton of eggs on her counter, unrefrigerated, for three days. The eggs had been previously refrigerated both at the store and at home. Now she's planning to do some more cooking which requires eggs, and is wondering if it's still safe to use them for baking. I believe she is planning on baking cookies with them, so they would be baked at fairly high temperatures for probably at least 10 minutes. Would this be safe, or are eggs left unrefrigerated for that long not safe for consumption? Choosing C++ debugger on linux Show that $\mathbb{E}(T) = \sum\limits^\infty_{k=1}\mathbb{P}(T \geq k)$ for $T$ nonnegative integer valued and $E[T] < \infty$ Let T be a non-negative integer-valued random variable with $\mathbb{E}(T) &lt; \infty $. Prove that $\mathbb{E}(T) = \sum^\infty_{k=1}\mathbb{P}(T \geq k)$.  Had a few attempts, haven't really got anywhere. I'm wondering as I'm typing this if proof by induction is a good way to go.  Edit: One major thing I forgot to add, am I correct in thinking that also, $\mathbb{E}(T) = \sum^\infty_{k=1}k\mathbb{P}(T = k)$? When do we double the consonant before '-ing' affix? My son is learning how to spell. He is doing a good job listening to sounds and working out spelling that way (which doesn't work for many words, but at least a lot of common ones), but although he's gotten the -ing chunk, he frequently misses doubling letters in these words.  Is there a guideline for when the end consonant is doubled? He's working on these sorts of words:        riding   sitting   skating   writing   getting FAQ: Migrations What are the rules on migrations:   Migrations in general Migrations to public betas Migrations to private betas How do I become a Werewolf?

How to plot logistic regression decision boundary? Let the ring of fractions be denoted as $S^{-1}R$.       Proposition (from Robert Ash's textbook "Basic Abstract Algebra")      Define $f: R \rightarrow S^{-1}R$ by $f(a) = a/1$. Then f is a ring homomorphism. If S has no zero divisors then f is a monomorphism, and we say that R can be embedded in $S^{-1}R$. In particular:      (i) A commutative ring R cna be embedded in its complete (or *full) ring of fractions ($S^{-1}R$, where S consists of all non-divisors of zero in R).       (ii) An integral domain can be embedded in its quotient field.    Why does the proposition say "If S has no zero divisors..."? If S really had zero divisors, then this wouldn't even be properly defined, right? Because we would have a/0 for some a in R. What's the rationale for requiring that a field be a $\boldsymbol{non}$-$\boldsymbol{trivial}$ ring? The title pretty much says it all.  Of course, one answer (IMO unsatisfactory) to such questions goes something like "a definition is a definition, period."  In my experience, mathematical definitions are rarely completely arbitrary.  Therefore I figure there must be a good reason for insisting that a field be a non-trivial ring (among other things), but it's not obvious to me.  I realize that a trivial ring would make for a very boring field, but it is also a rather boring ring, and yet it is not disallowed as such.  EDIT: I found a hint of a rationale in the statement that "the zero ring ... does not behave like a finite field," but I could not find in the  for this assertion exactly how the zero ring fails to behave like a finite field. Circular Dependencies? Caption above subtables with subcaption package breaks numbering of following table Let $p, q \in \mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\|p\| = \|q\| = 1$ and define $$A = pq^T + qp^T$$ Find the null space of $A$.    I am not having very much luck. I have managed to show that $p + q$ and $p - q$ are eigenvectors, but I can't seem to connect those two. I know that since $A$ is generated by an outer product, it is of rank one. That implies that the rank of the null space is $n - 1$, but I can't seem to get any further. Can anyone help?
