I suspect an editor without sufficient medical knowledge might have made the reverse of that edit to tighten up the first sentence.

To save others a click: CDC says to give ivermectin to kill intestinal parasites (with an exception due to risk to people who might be carrying loa loa). Not horse paste to treat a virus.

I read the question as "what if the designer uses designer tools to make a PNG with text instead of HTML that calls for a fancy font, then posts that?" It seems like that should (in the US) work like any normal use of a font on a

This is a pseudopolynomial time algorithm: polynomial in the magnitude of an important number, not in the number of bits that it takes to write it down. Problems with those kind of algorithm available don't make P=NP because the probl

That information is on the outside of the envelope and is verified before the envelope is opened. In some states, the ballot is inside another envelope that is opened after the voter info is separated from the ballot.

I (not a lawyer) understand copyright law to mostly prohibit us from copying the spec document without permission, and then the license provides permission for some copying of the document. I'm pretty sure the authors really want to pr

They are the recipe for one piece of the virus (which is important to its function, so hopefully among the parts least subject to mutation), and then your cells that get vaccine in them make the foreign protein, which then causes the usual

In cdma2000, it's an option. I didn't notice such a thing in LTE. (LTE does include some options to determine position by propagation delay between mobile and base station, but they all involve the mobile reporting time measuremen

Some terminals support a programmable answerback string, and of course the ENQ control character to send it to the host. Some have programmable function keys and a command to read them, which often (always?) sends the programmed string as c

Less precision, more speed than a digital calculator, in my experience (at least in high school physics class in the early 90s). Makes sense because the slide rule takes one precise movement per number but the digital calculator takes one m

Both have public documentation sufficient to decode a message without applying any secret information, so no.

Huh. I heard (US high school algebra in a recent unspecified century) the fact that ab=ba called "the commutative property of multiplication", and the "symmetric property of equality" meant a=b <=> b=a, and didn&#x

It works better if you know how the scales are constructed and get familiar with properties of logarithms (mainly variations on log ab = log a + log b) C and D are plain log scales, where one decade is the length of the rule. They're s

Except not. The MAC-layer identity in LTE is the RNTI, which is temporarily assigned by each cell before the mobile transmits any sort of unique ID.

At least in LTE, the IMEI isn't a necessary part of connection setup. The network identifies the user seeking to connect by a temporary identifier if one of those is allocated or by the IMSI if that's all the user has. After the n

This one was called Aztec and Manx C, depending on what part you looked at. It lacked bit field struct members and I think a couple of other features but don't remember now. I learned Zilog first and agree with you. I had to keep an 80

I was once blessed with a z80 c compiler, hosted on msdos but targeting cp/m (maybe it was ported for use with embedded targets). Its output was 8080 assembler with the odd db here and there when it wanted to emit a z80 instruction. It

That used to belong to a company selling a proprietary implementation of X11 a while back (I want to say MetroLink? They had ads in the Linux print magazines at the time).

In the US at last check, bitmap fonts weren't subject to copyright. Also, the X11 fonts I've looked at had a license string something like "these glyphs are unencumbered".

If the plugs differ and both are the straight blade type, it's because something relevant to safety differs, probably which wires are present (white neutral or green safety ground) and/or the current rating. You can get in trouble

Only if you use conversion within the language: void *p=0; If you said memset(&p, 0, sizeof(p)) then that's not guaranteed to work on all implementations.

If it starts xn-- then it's punycode, and the prefix was apparently chosen because it didn't occur in any actual DNS labels.
