I have read many posts about Intel turbo boost technology and I am still a little confused. I get how it works and I even went as far as turning it off but it didn't seem to do anything. When I disabled turbo boost in my bios it still would make my CPU jump above it's 3.3 GHz max. So because that didn't work I just went back into my bios and left it enabled hoping that Intel knows what it is doing.   Now I do a lot of BOINC processing in my spare time when I am not home (Seti@home and others). I've seen my Intel processor hit Ghz of 3.73 and I believe higher, but I don't remember exactly. My main concern is how hot my CPU is getting. I've registered temps as high as 83 degrees Celsius. Normally tho when doing processing it is bouncing somewhere between 60-77 degrees Celsius. I am assuming that is the Intel technology boosting it and then reducing it when it hits higher temps.   My actual question is, is this safe? Are temps of 80+ dangerous? For reference when I am just gaming, WoW on ultra settings, in Ashran, only make my CPU hit 60 degrees Celsius max.   On a side note, my GPU is always a very constant low temperature, so I have that going for me. Which is nice.
I have an HP laptop with with a Core-i5 450m processor and an ATI Radeon 5650 1GB graphics card. When I played crysis warhead on my system its temprature went up to 82° c. Is it safe to play games up to this temperature level?
If I wanted to say something occurred occurred between 1627 and 1629, I would use &quot;the late 1620s&quot;. However, if I wanted to say something occurred between 1607 and 1609, I couldn't use &quot;the late 1600s&quot; because that would imply it occurred between 1670 and 1699. Warning or confirmation on new tag creation In retrospect of this , I would like to ask the community how they feel about a warning or confirmation (or just special highlighting) on new tag creation.  Everybody hates stock "are you sure?" confirmation, but a lot of tags get created by mistake (and then used ad nauseam).   For example, I think I might have created the  tag by accident. Assuming the right tag was , there would be two tags for c# 4.0, until they are made synonyms. With a warning, some accidental tags could be prevented. "For someone used to the tiny creatures we get in England it was something of a shock."  I think, in this sentence, relative pronouns before some words have been omitted. I know rules of omitting relative pronouns, but in this case I have failed to understand before which words relative pronouns can be placed to understand the sentence perfectly, which has been stated above. Please, explain the rules of omitting relative pronouns with the help of the sentence stated above, so that I can be able to understand this type of sentences easily. You can also use other sentences to explain this fact clearly.  Thanks to everyone. I am trying to find out how to approach a relief type project. I have a background image and a flat plane mesh to sculpt on, but I actually don´t see any changes looking straight on top. When I tilt the perspective a bit the image disappears.  Is there a way to make the image appear at all perspectives? What is the need of complex functions in wave analysis? It is commonly known that waves can be express in terms of sine or cosine function. But when I study further, I seen that for analyising the waves, it is common to use complex functions in the form $$y=y_{_0}e^{i(kx-\omega{t})}$$ where $y_{_0}$ is the amplitude, $k$ is the wave number, $\omega$ is the angular velocity and $x$ &amp; $t$ are position an time respectively. Ofcourse, I know that the function $e^{ix}$ can be written in the form $\cos{x}+i\sin{x}$ and so it is a periodic function with period $2\pi$ but my question is for what purpose we define it in terms of complex numbers? It seem to be more convenient to use real functions for real variables such as amplitude, electric and magnetic field of an electro magnetic wave, and also in quantum mechanics. What actually this interpretation means or what is the advantage of such functions? My objects are semi-transparent, and not one behind the other in the compositor Resizing or expanding a CoreStorage volume I bought a new SSD with 750 GB and made two partitions: 600 GB and 150 GB. The smaller one was thought to be a Bootcamp partition one day, but to date it was just another unused partition. When I needed more space, I decided to merge these two partitions. The partition was created with Mavericks, the merge was done with Yosemite.  I opened Disk Utility and the "minus" button. Disk Utility told me both partitions would be merged then. However it miserably failed. My main hard disc suddenly had errors which couldn't be repaired and even two of my other external hard discs could not be mounted any longer.  I eventually restored the hard disc from Time Machine, which worked well.  My second partition is now listed as free:    Unfortunately I can't resize the 600 GB partition nor can I create a new partition using the free space.  Diskutil reveils the following:  ~  diskutil list /dev/disk0    #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER    0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *750.2 GB   disk0    1:                        EFI EFI                     209.7 MB   disk0s1    2:          Apple_CoreStorage                         599.6 GB   disk0s2    3:                 Apple_Boot Recovery HD             650.0 MB   disk0s3 /dev/disk1    #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER    0:                  Apple_HFS Macintosh HD           *599.3 GB   disk1                                  Logical Volume on disk0s2                                  XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX                                  Unencrypted   Also diskutil brought up this:  ~  diskutil cs list CoreStorage logical volume groups (1 found) | +-- Logical Volume Group 9D2BA4BA-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx     =========================================================     Name:         Macintosh HD     Status:       Online     Size:         599640592384 B (599.6 GB)     Free Space:   6111232 B (6.1 MB)     |     +-&lt; Physical Volume 29A9A02B-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx     |   ----------------------------------------------------     |   Index:    0     |   Disk:     disk0s2     |   Status:   Online     |   Size:     599640592384 B (599.6 GB)     |     +-&gt; Logical Volume Family 2FA7892F-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx         ----------------------------------------------------------         Encryption Status:       Unlocked         Encryption Type:         None         Conversion Status:       NoConversion         Conversion Direction:    -none-         Has Encrypted Extents:   No         Fully Secure:            No         Passphrase Required:     No         |         +-&gt; Logical Volume 7BF42B7B-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx             ---------------------------------------------------             Disk:                  disk1             Status:                Online             Size (Total):          599282155520 B (599.3 GB)             Conversion Progress:   -none-             Revertible:            No             LV Name:               Macintosh HD             Volume Name:           Macintosh HD             Content Hint:          Apple_HFS   I have tried this:    fsck -fy (The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK.)   but it wouldn't help. It said I couldn't recover because it wasn't created in a way it would support (sorry for missing the exact message).  I then have learned that Apple_CoreStorage might indicate my disk is encrypted, which might explain why I can't resize it. It doesn't explain why I can't create a new partition to me.  What are my options to make my hard disk available in a single partition with size 750 GB? Intuition about Herbrand Models. I'm having trouble understanding how Herbrand models work. I feel like there is a bigger picture to it which I'm not understanding. Why does every satisfiable first order formula have a herbrand model at all ? Can I somehow construct a Herbrand model from a normal model ? My book also says that : a formula is unsatisfiable iff the Herbrand expansion is unsatisfiable. The book I'm using &quot;Mathematical Logic for computer science by Mordechai Ben-Ari&quot; has all the proofs of the above but its not very intuitive to me. Could somebody share their point of view? When clicking continue on the first Boot Camp screen,  I am presented with a dialog that displays:     The startup disk does not have enough space to be partitioned.   You must have at least 39 GB of free space available.     This is despite "About this Mac" reporting 271GB of free space:    And "Disk Utility" reporting 268GB of free space:    Searching online I found  which suggested it was the result of Time Machine which i recently enabled and suggests to run sudo tmutil thinlocalsnapshots / 999999999999 which I did, it ran sucessfully, and I restarted, yet to no avail.  What is the solution to this instance of Apple's poor engineering?  Running macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 (17E202) Why do I have to solve for $x$ in this proof, if I choose not to find a counterexample? Photoshop CS6 Resize Rectangle with Rounded Corners This question is about Photoshop CS6. Hopefully the feature was added in this version. Before posting I looked up Google and  and  but didn't find an answer for CS6.  So the question is: Is there a feature within CS6 or a script that allows to resize a vector element with rounded corners without using the Direct Selection Tool (white arrow tool) and not changing the border radius? What would be great would be something like simply using the transform tool or something like a grid resize tool. Does the series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}|x|^\sqrt n$ converge pointwise? If it then what would be the sum? Does the series $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}|x|^\sqrt n$ converge pointwise? The "Very Low Quality" (VLQ) flag reason is really annoying me.   It is the analog to the mommy mommy flag (which my 1.5-year-old child raises quite frequently). It provides no real clue as to what the flagger really wants us to do with the post.   Does she want us to close the question?  Does she want us to edit it into shape?  Does she want us to delete the question?  Does she want us to ban the user?  Does she want us to jump around and have a party?    Should we get rid of this flag reason?   Is it just me? Should and can we replace it with something better?     EDIT I accepted Jeff's answer. The tougher wording has heavily decreased the amount of very low quality flags. We now see only about 25% of the amount we used to and they are usually valid. Additionally, we now only allow very low quality on posts with a score of 0 or lower. If  $\mathbb R^*$ and $\mathbb C^*$ be respectively multiplicative groups of non-zero real and complex number then whether $\operatorname{Hom}(\mathbb Z_6,R^*\oplus C^*)$  is  isomorphic to $\mathbb Z_{12}$? or $\mathbb Z_6$? or $\mathbb Z_6\oplus \mathbb Z_2$? I have some stuff in settings.py that I'd like to be able to access from a template, but I can't figure out how to do it. I already tried  {{CONSTANT_NAME}}   but that doesn't seem to work. Is this possible? How do I compare binary files in Linux? I need to compare two binary files and get the output in the form:  &lt;fileoffset-hex> &lt;file1-byte-hex> &lt;file2-byte-hex>  for every different byte. So if file1.bin is    00 90 00 11   in binary form and file2.bin is    00 91 00 10   I want to get something like    00000001 90 91   00000003 11 10   Is there a way to do this in Linux? I know about cmp -l but it uses a decimal system for offsets and octal for bytes which I would like to avoid. I've removed the poll style answers in favour of open discussion.  I realise now this isn't the best way to have a proper discussion about this issue - sorry to anyone who commented/voted.    This is mostly a followup on this question:    As I've answered, the reason this is happening is that the root database (in the production Stack Exchange database server) is still called StackExchange.Programmers - a database name that propagates to SEDE and through it to the data dump.  The question here is what to do about it - the current situation is somewhat broken for users of the data dump.  These are the options we have:   Do nothing Update the root database name (requires downtime - so very undesirable) Update the update scripts so the SEDE database name is the new name, change will flow to the data dump export (breaks any queries using the old name) Update the export to the data dump so only it gets the new name Something else we haven't thought about   I have added all of these options as answers below - please vote on the one you most prefer, we will try to accommodate the top voted answer.
