The QR would be of a URL. The QR should be big enough like 4 A4 size papers. I though of cutting out the white boxes from a printed paper and spray on it but what about white dot islands.

So, a single element normal subgroup $n$ of group $G$ would be defined as $ \forall g \in G: gng^{-1} = n$. All elements of an abelian group would qualify, and so would more generally the elements of the center of a group, since $gng^{-1} = gg^{-1}n = n$ for $n\in \text{Z}(G)$. Thus, to prove th...

As far as I understand, the Monotonic Sequence Theorem states that if a sequence is monotonic and the individual terms are bounded, then the sequence is convergent. My book states that $\lim \limits_{t \to \infty}\sum_{n=1}^t b^{\ln n}$ is convergent only for b $\lt$ $\frac{1}{e}$. However, is ...

I have just found out Airbus uses aluminium wiring in the A380 to save weight. However, I didn't see anything about whether all the wiring is aluminium, or if copper wiring is also used. What is the logic behind this, and do other aircraft manufacturers do the same? Does Airbus use aluminium wiri...

Since C++ 17 one can write an If-block that will get executed exactly once like this: #include <iostream> int main() { for (unsigned i = 0; i < 10; ++i) { if (static bool do_once = true; do_once) { // enter only once std::cout << "hello one-shot" << std::endl; ...

Is the Duergar's ability to shrink/enlarge considered a spell? How does that combo off with the barbarian's "Rage" ability? Am I able to do this after I go into a rage? Does it cancel before I go into a rage? Can this ability be counterspelled? Does it require concentration to maintain? (I r...

I was looking at this question about categories without products, and the main examples are: fields manifolds with boundary posets But these all seem to fail for either structural reasons (fields/manifolds) or simply no reasonable definition of product in the category is available (posets) M...

We have a program with many dependencies. Because the user may not want to use all of them, the program should skip over failed imports and only raise an error if absolutely necessary. e.g. if the user tries to call that class. I have implemented a way of doing this but I'm not sure it is as goo...

Trying to solve this challenge on codewars. According to the challenge, the parts of array: ls = [0, 1, 3, 6, 10] Are ls = [0, 1, 3, 6, 10] ls = [1, 3, 6, 10] ls = [3, 6, 10] ls = [6, 10] ls = [10] ls = [] And we need to return an array with the sums of those parts. So my code is as follo...

Let's assume that I choose the bits for my 256-bit private key exponent by flipping a coin 256 times. Are there any other issues, besides the randomness of the 256-bit private key to consider? For example, should the most significant bit always start with 1 in order to ensure a private key of a ...

An un-treatable virus starts infecting and killing people.
