other questions about cashless society of humans but this seems to have been due to a philosophical change. but is it implied that technology makes it possible for all to have food and shelter even without working?
I have noticed that guest quarters on the Enterprise D have fruit bowls on their tables.  A prominent instance is the fruit bowl in Berlinghoff Rasmussen's quarters in "".  The first thing that Rasmussen does when Data takes him to his guest quarters is take a piece of fruit and shove it in his pocket.  Who replicates fruit for these fruit bowls before guests arrive?  More generally, who removes unused fruit and tidies quarters after guests leave?  Is there a ship hospitality staff, perhaps including Guinan's wait staff in Ten Forward?
Correct XML serialization and deserialization of "mixed" types in .NET Showing the norm' is non-negative How to set an alias on a per-directory basis? Suppose you have an alias go, but want it to do different things in different directories?  In one directory it should run cmd1, but in another directory it should run cmd2  By the way, I have an aliases for switching to the above directories already, so is it possible to append the go alias assignment to the foo alias?  alias "foo=cd /path/to/foo"   Working in bash(?) on OSX. How do I know if an ability is magical? Often confusion arises when the  spell is used, an  is worn, or the 's anti-magic ray is employed, whether a given character's ability will still function.   The spell does give you some guidelines on how to adjudicate the effects of the loss of magic but says very little about how to determine what is affected.  In short, how do I tell if an ability is magical? Hosting multiple distinct folders for distinct domains I started by Time Series Analysis by Hamilton, but I am lost hopelessly. This book is really too theoretical for me to learn by myself.   Does anybody have a recommendation for a textbook on time series analysis that's suitable for self-study? I cannot remember anyone writing the letter epsilon in any other way than \varepsilon in any math class; but in LaTeX \epsilon and \varepsilon are different symbols. Do any of you know why there are two different symbols? (I.e. if \epsilon is the correct way to write the letter epsilon, why aren't mathematicians using it, and when is, according to the standards today, the correct situation to use each of the symbols?) I've got a rather large number of files on my Windows drive that have a colon in their name. (These came from unpacking some Unix archives.)   When I try to delete them, Windows (XP) complains that the file does not exist, and refuses to delete it. This happens when trying to delete or rename it from explorer or the command line. Still, chkdsk does not complain about those files nor fix the problem.   Any ideas on how to get rid of them? How to handle fragmentation of auto_increment ID column in MySQL Word for giving animal characteristics (esp. physical ones) to humans I am writing a paper about Art Spiegelman's Maus, specifically the metaphor that Spiegelman creates by depicting his obviously quite human characters with the heads of various animals, or a couple times animal masks. The metaphor is used at times to bestialize/animalize the acts of the Nazis and, in some cases, to show the arbitrary nature of the classes/groups/divisions they and others applied to human beings.  I considered "chremamorphism," but this describes the attribution of the characteristics of an object to, or the objectification of, a human. I also considered "animalize" and "bestialize," but those describe some of the effects that can be produced by Spiegelman's metaphor, not the metaphor itself - in many scenes in the book, the characters are extremely human, and I think that the negative or degrading connotations of these words makes them inappropriate for this use. Nor do "anthropomorphism" or "personification" fit, because Spiegelman is not applying human characteristics to animals but the other way around. None of the words that I can think of quite fit.  What is a word that accurately describes Art Spiegelman's depiction of obviously human characters as having animal body parts or wearing animal masks in the comic book Maus? How do I force Windows to check for updates? I have had the last Ubuntu distro (10.something) installed for a year and love it.  But I have run in to an issue when I tried to upgrade it to the latest one it did not work and there has come some serious issues now with almost everything and I want to remove Ubuntu completely and install the new one.  How can I remove the operating system (I don’t mind formatting the whole thing if that’s what’s needed). How to sandbox applications? I want to run small untrusted programs, but restrict them from accessing any files outside of their folder, network access, and everything else that they don't really need. What is the simplest way to achieve this? The usual example of unitary ring without the  property is the ring of column finite matrices, and in this case we have $R\simeq R^2$ as (left) $R$-modules. (See also .) In particular, we have $R^2\simeq R^3$.      I wonder if there is an example of unitary ring (without the IBN property) such that $R^2\simeq R^3$, but $R\not\simeq R^2$ (as $R$-modules). How do you keep user.config settings across different assembly versions in .net? TikZ: remove margin, padding, border around nodes containing images I want to create a simple figure where images are connected with arrows. Here is what I did:  \begin{tikzpicture} \node[](A) {\includegraphics[width=0.2\textwidth]{a}}; \node[right=1mm of A](B) {\includegraphics[width=0.2\textwidth]{b}}; \draw[-&gt;] (A) to (B); \end{tikzpicture}     But I want the arrow to start and end right at the images with no space between. How can I do that? How to run an executable on boot and keep it running? I have an executable build from a ndk-build program. I want to run it on a rooted Android device. How much is the possibility that Android will kill my executable?  Using adb shell, I am able to execute my executable using following commands:  adb push executable /sdcard adb shell device:/ $ su device:/ # cd /system device:/system # mount -o rw,remount /system device:/system # mv /sdcard/executable . device:/system # ./executable   My requirement is to run this executable on device boot.  I have tried following:   Write ./executable in init.rc.   On reboot init.rc reset to its original contents. I figured out that Magisk done this.  Write commands in /system/etc/init/bootstat.rc   ./executable service custom /system/executable on boot  ./system/dhandler/diag_revealer    None of the above thing is working. I'd like to get a notification when a question that I've voted to close (but isn't closed yet) is edited What is the difference between \par, \newline, \\ and blank lines? When should I use which one? I'm stuck on a question which asks to prove that any continuous integer-valued function of a real variable is constant. In my lecture notes we are told that a map is continuous if the preimage of any open set is open.  How do I use this to answer the question? A full answer would be greatly appreciated as I can't seem to figure out how to solve it in my  notes, in analysis books or anywhere online.
