2024.05.27 21:48 dezdog2 Need some help please

I’m running docker desktop on window 10. I installed wsl2 and Ubuntu. I did all this to set up photoprism. I used a docker compose Yml to set up and get going.
Now the problem. When the pc restarts or if I restart docker or docker down docker up - d the container starts and shows running but the little stack icon is yellow and it show 1/2 running and I cannot connect to the photoprism program. If I hit the stop button on the docker dash and restart it, it comes back up with the stack icon green and 2/2 listed. Now I can connect to photoprism . On the localhost address. And it work great. I’m thinking it has something to do with the Maria db not starting the first time. Can anyone enlighten me? I’m new to this docker stuff so big big learning curve for me. Here is my compose

Mount Joy is really a 3 Sided Pyramid @ Valley Forge
They built the shape, used as a formula to calculate the volume of a 3 sided pyramid, into the east corner of the 3 sided pyramid we call Mount Joy, in Valley Forge.
Why downvote this? It clearly resembles a 3 sided pyramid

4. Gas Turbines and Hydro Turbines
Both gas turbines in wind power plants and hydroelectric turbines operate on the principle of converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. The input energy for the turbines comes from two different sources:
Wind Power Plants: Wind energy rotates the turbine blades.
Hydroelectric Power Plants: High-pressure water strikes the turbine blades.
Energy Source:
Structure:
Operation:
Advantages:
Disadvantages:

5. Jet Engines:

Operating Principle:
Jet engines harness the thrust of hot, combusted gases to generate propulsive force. Air is drawn from the surrounding environment, compressed, mixed with fuel, and ignited within a combustion chamber. The resulting hot gases are expelled through a nozzle, producing thrust in the opposite direction.
Key Components:
1. Intake: The initial point of entry for air, typically located at the front of the engine.
2. Compressor: Compresses the incoming air, increasing its pressure and density.
3. Combustion Chamber: Where the compressed air is mixed with fuel and ignited, producing hot, high-pressure gases.
4. Turbine: Extracts energy from the hot gases, driving the compressor and generating additional thrust.
5. Nozzle: Directs and accelerates the exhaust gases, generating thrust.
Applications:
· Aircraft: Jet engines are the primary propulsion system for most modern airplanes, providing the immense power required for flight.
· Missiles: Jet engines are also employed in certain types of missiles, offering high thrust and rapid acceleration capabilities.
Advantages:
· High Thrust: Jet engines produce exceptionally high thrust, enabling aircraft to achieve tremendous speeds.
· Efficiency at High Speeds: Jet engines operate efficiently at high altitudes and speeds, making them well-suited for long-range air travel.
· Scalability: Jet engines can be designed in various sizes and configurations, catering to a wide range of aircraft applications.
Disadvantages:
· Complexity: Jet engines are intricate machines with numerous components, requiring specialized maintenance and expertise.
· Noise: The combustion process and high-speed exhaust gases generate significant noise, particularly during takeoff and landing.
· Fuel Consumption: Jet engines consume a substantial amount of fuel, making fuel efficiency a crucial factor in aircraft design and operation.
Types of Jet Engines:
1. Turbojet: The simplest and most common type, producing thrust primarily from the exhaust gases.
2. Turbofan: Incorporates a bypass fan that accelerates a larger amount of air around the engine, improving overall efficiency and reducing noise.
3. Turboprop: Drives a propeller through a gearbox, providing efficient thrust for lower-speed applications.
4. Ramjet: Utilizes the high-speed airflow of the vehicle to compress air, eliminating the need for a mechanical compressor.
5. Scramjet: A supersonic combustion ramjet, designed for hypersonic speeds where conventional combustion methods become impractical.
6. Pneumatic Engines and Hydraulic Engines

  1. Vane Motors:
  1. Turbine Motors:
Advantages:
Disadvantages:
Applications:
Hydraulic Engines:
Power Source: Hydraulic fluid (such as hydraulic oil).
Power Supply Method: Hydraulic pump system.
Advantages:
Disadvantages:
Applications:

7. Hybrid Engines:

Introduction:
Hybrid engines, also known as hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), combine two power sources: an internal combustion engine (ICE), typically a gasoline engine, and an electric motor. This combination offers several advantages over traditional ICE-powered vehicles, including enhanced fuel efficiency, reduced environmental impact, and improved driving performance.
Key Components:
1. Internal Combustion Engine: Provides the primary power for the vehicle, operating on the principle of burning fuel (gasoline) to generate mechanical energy.
2. Electric Motor: Assists the ICE, functioning by utilizing electrical energy from the battery.
3. Battery: Stores electrical energy for the electric motor.
4. Control System: Manages the coordination between the ICE and electric motor, ensuring efficient and fuel-saving vehicle operation.
Operating Principle:
· Starting: The electric motor takes precedence, enabling smooth and quiet movement.
· Acceleration: Both the ICE and electric motor work together, delivering powerful torque for acceleration.
· Braking: The electric motor acts as a generator, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy and recharging the battery.
· Steady Speed: The ICE handles primary power, with the electric motor providing support when needed.
Advantages:
· Fuel Efficiency: Hybrid vehicles can achieve fuel savings of 20% to 40% compared to conventional ICE-powered vehicles.
· Reduced Emissions: By saving fuel, hybrid vehicles also contribute to minimizing CO2 emissions and other harmful pollutants released into the environment.
· Smooth Operation: The electric motor contributes to a smoother and more refined driving experience compared to ICE-powered vehicles.
· Enhanced Performance: The electric motor can assist the ICE during acceleration, resulting in quicker and more responsive acceleration.
Disadvantages:
· Higher Cost: Hybrid vehicles typically have a higher initial purchase price compared to conventional ICE-powered vehicles.
· Complex System: The hybrid system comprises more components than an ICE-powered vehicle, potentially leading to more complex and expensive maintenance and repairs.
· Increased Weight: The battery and other hybrid system components add weight to the vehicle, which can affect performance.
Types of Hybrid Vehicles:
1. Full Hybrid: The most common type, where the electric motor and ICE can operate independently or in combination.
2. Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV): Can be charged externally, allowing for a certain electric-only range.
3. Mild Hybrid: Uses an electric motor to assist the ICE but cannot operate solely on electric power.

Selecting the Right Engine Type

A vast array of engine types exists, each with its own set of advantages, disadvantages, and applications. Therefore, choosing the appropriate engine type depends on several factors:
Power: The power required for the application.
Size: The maximum permissible size of the engine.
Weight: The maximum permissible weight of the engine.
Operating Environment: The environment in which the engine will operate (e.g., indoor, outdoor, underwater, etc.).
Performance Requirements: The engine's energy conversion efficiency.
Noise and Vibration Requirements: The allowable noise level and vibration of the engine.
Cost: The cost of purchasing and operating the engine.
Additional Considerations:
· Maintainability: The ease of maintaining the engine.
· Reliability: The engine's dependability and resistance to breakdowns.
· Spare Parts Availability: The accessibility of replacement parts for the engine.

"The region in the xy-plane bounded by the lines y = x, x = 0 and y = 1 is the base of two different solids. The first solid has cross-sections perpendicular to the x-axis that are squares while the second solid has cross sections perpendicular to the x-axis that are semicircles. Let V1 be the volume of the first solid and V2 be the volume of the second solid. Which of the following best describes the relationship between V1 and V2?"
  1. This is a practice problem that I am doing on my own to prepare for the next semester. I am preparing for Calculus 2.
  2. What are the two solids we're talking about? How precisely are the two solids being formed here? Is the triangular shape formed being rotated along a circular path in the one hand and somehow a square path in the other? And how precisely is the larger shape being formed such that the square cross sectional area is generated? I don't understand this problem to begin with.
  3. [I cannot understand what is happening in this problem, I need to know how to set it up, which requires me to understand what is happening].
I know that I am required to show proof of work, but I could not understand the problem, so the furthest I was able to get is to draw the triangle shaped by the bounds indicated in the problem
Thanks

2024.05.22 17:52 No-Sun9778 P&L - Variance Attribution - Need Help!

Hi team,
I currently work for a midstream energy company and am working to beef up reporting, specifically for the income statement/P&L. For purposes of understanding the business, all you need to know is we collect volumes of commodities that charge specific rates for revenue, and an important opex metric that is looked at is on a unit / volume basis (IE if there are more volumes we collected, we expect higher opex). I’m looking to decompose the variance in a handful of ways 1) whole dollar variance for each P&L item (easy, done) and 2) based on “drivers”. For example, revenue is up. Is this because volumes were higher than forecast or because revenue margins were better than forecast? How much can we attribute our EBITDA beat to each driver of the business?
I thought if I recreate the P&L based on drivers (volumes, revenue rates, opex rate, etc), thought of as variables, change the P&L one variable driver at a time, measure the EBITDA impact it made, and collect this for all driver deltas, I can decompose the whole variance and attribute the EBITDA variance to specific drivers.
The issue here is, once I complete this, the sum of the EBITDA deltas for each driver does not equal the whole dollar variance. The individual EBITDA attributable variances look right, and it is directionally correct, but it seems something is missing. I am able to recreate the P&L using solely the drivers, which leads me to believe that the issue here isn’t that the worksheet is missing a variable, rather I think this is an algebra problem. Given how interconnected drivers are (for example, total volumes affects the revenue and opex numbers), I think there is some intermingling of variables that I am not able to wrap my head around.
If anyone has run into this issue and has some insight, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

2024.05.22 02:27 Typical-Pin1646 my analysis for FFIE so far.

[this does not constitute any investment advice, just purely my own opinion]
just like an on-going war, there will be days where it gets easier, and there will be days where it is the toughest. the toughest days of these battle was on 14 may 2024 to 17 may 2024.
notice how the short ratio kept increasing, and until 17 may, it was at the highest. that was also the day where the price went to a high of almost $4, then down to $1.
logically and technically speaking, if this war has to fail, it already would have on Friday after-market hours. Prices would have just wane off, leaving the late buyers high and dry, losing their money. And this whole episode will just go down into history quietly without anybody mentioning about it again because it is embarassing.
However, prices shot up after-market hours. this tells me there are renewed interest in the stocks. whatever share that is being sold, could have been bought up by a new buyer. hopefully a wise one, because a new and wise buyer would have strong holding power.
The price attempted to sell off again on monday. But to no avail, as soon as it reach the low of $1.20, it got scooped up quickly. Again, this indicate buying sentiment at low prices still exist. Otherwise, the price would have crash through.
Right now, Tuesday, there is a strong support at the $1.20 - $1.25 range. After 4 days of selling by shorties, the Short Interest has increased from 95.xx% to 96.78%. That means a new increase. This would mean that the short squeeze, if it does materialise eventually, is getting nearer and easier. Because with increased short interest, it'll mean that there are less float. With less float, less capital is required to buy them all up and stash them into your war chest and hold. When finally there is no more float around, it is here where it starts cracking. Prices gets bidded up very very quickly due to the limited supply.
Imagine this, you went to the market and bought onions from every stall. now, you own all the onions and nobody else has it. since now u've all the onions, you can dictate the price you want to sell at, and watch the uncles aunties cry when they buy the onion from you at sky high price. T_T
Also, data do not lie. my data from my broker consistently shows that, at the end of each trading session the S and M trade size are showing net outflow consistently over the past few days. There is only 1 group, the XL trade size that is consistently showing net inflow. that is the group that is giving me the confidence to hold.
From technical pattern perspective, there is a strong support zone at $1.20 - $1.25 range. Selling truimphs for monday and tuesday, but has weaken. as you can see, the slope sliding down is less steep. This is accompanied by the data where short sale ratio decreasing, and short interest increasing. Also in the daily chart, we've formed a ascending flag, and we are reaching the tip-end of a triangular flag. On Wed or Thu, I would be expecting a sharp breakout on either side.

2024.05.21 15:29 Brokenhill Slug problem?

In the past 6 months I have seen two slugs (or whatever these are) in the same area of my room. The first one was on my acoustic panel (the black thing on the right). My room is not near a front door nor a back door. And this corner is opposite of a window. The picture attached is the second slug that I've seen and it was a few days ago and there was no slime trail on the acoustic panel a couple days ago. But when I came into the room today there was a slime trail on the acoustic panel but no slug.
I'm not sure on the life cycle of a slug and if somehow there could be babies growing inside of the acoustic panel. The acoustic panel is basically a triangular prism that's 4 ft tall and fits in the corner.
The only I can think of is that to the right of this corner there is a closet and behind the closet is a small pantry which seems to have an unusual dampness and we have to leave the pantry door open so that bread doesn't mold too quickly, but I don't know why that pantry is damn if I can't really find any strong evidence for the problem, and then this closet does not seem to be damp like the pantry and I'm looking for cracks or something in the walls at the base of the closet but I don't see anything.

2024.05.20 23:52 domolords What is this white crystalline substance forming on hardwood floor?

What is this white crystalline substance forming on hardwood floor?
After being wiped away it returns in the same volume anout a week later and will increase in vilume until cleaned again. It is under the meeting point of two ladder shelves. It has no and large rectangular prism shaped crystals that form flat against a surface in micro-organism-colony-like splotches. It grows as if it is expanding. The formations, as tendrils explore. Very mold-like however very industrial chemical-like. it feels slightly damp with a cold oil-like dampness. However, as someone who has used high-strength acids before for etching, this feels like crystals that can form when working with corrosive fluid reacting with something like what is seen on batteries often. Unsure if it is biochemical, microbiological, or just some sort of strange chemistry with the chemical treatment of wood of the fyrnature or the floor or asindoor humidity has been very high in that room several times humidity. I’m hoping it’s not white mold.

2024.05.20 21:37 Carlika [TOMT] [Movie] [1990s or before] A moody teenage girl at a beach house, had a prism pendant

Let me preface this by saying this is really far-fetched.
I watched a lot of TV in the 90s and there was this movie that was on more than once, but I can hardly remember it. I'm from Argentina and this was before I learned English so I remember it was dubbed. Therefore, I can't be sure of the movie's origin (but the original language sure wasn't Spanish). It might have been an unknown straight-to-tv movie for all I know.
I remember a teenage girl living at a beach house or near a beach, maybe just moved there. The vibes were very much winter beach: cloudy/windy/rainy, basically moody.
She wore mostly black/dark clothing and she had a necklace which was a string with a triangular prism for a pendant, maybe a clear quartz, kind of like this.
That pendant was featured so there was something with it. One time she had it hanging somewhere in her room, maybe by a window, and it projected a rainbow glare.
My memory of this movie is really hazy, more of a vibe than an image, so l'm not sure if the girl was a witch and did something with that prism or if I'm just imagining this fact since throughout the years, trying to identify the movie, I might have mixed it up with other more known movies from that era of my life (The Craft -1996 and Mermaids -1990). I don't know what elements those movies might have shared with the one l'm looking for but I associated them for whatever reason.

2024.05.20 11:43 Athensz343 NFS and Subfolder Hierarchies

Hey, I am somewhat new to Docker. I currently have a Desktop running Proxmox VE OS, in it I have a priveladge Docker LXC and an Ubuntu Server OS VM. I am using the Ubuntu Server OS VM strictly for NAS purposes.
I am wanting to have one single File Folder (with a multitude of subfolders inside it) host my entire Docker media files (e.g. .epubs, .pdfs, .mp3s, etc.) for the containers that I am planning on running inside my Docker LXC, such as Calibre, Emby, AirSonic, PhotoPrism, etc.
And I am super difficult time with these damn NFS. I am running into the issue of either my containers not being able to see/access the subfolders within subfolders, or if they do access it, they cant see or interact with some of the files I've uploaded into them via my Windows 11 Desktop.
Obviously I can see and interact with all Folders and Files via File Explorer on Windows, but I can't do the same with Docker LXC. I used to use my Synology NAS DS218 for a shared Network Folder befote, and I never seemed to have this issue, it was straight forward. However I am getting consistently tried of having to make mounts and paths for every subfolder, I want to to create and utilize. And this was also true while using my Synology.
I feel like there is an easier way to handle all of this. Where I can have one single volume mount to Calibre, and inside Calibre I open it up and see all the subfolders in it, plus the ebooks and configurations from my Windows Desktop Calibre.

2024.05.20 10:27 gipaaa Volume of a prism being cut by plane in 3D?

The prism is made of horizontal irregular polygon base in x-y plane (z=0) with infinite height along z axis. The cutting plane is in 3D, may be defined by ax+by+cz+d=0, or any other more convenient definition. How do I calculate the volume between prism's base to the cutting plane? TIA
Edit: changing from finite to infinite height so the plane always cuts the prism. (not sure if this is still called prism?)

Introduction

Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept but a present reality disrupting various industries through innovative applications. One such domain experiencing a tectonic shift due to AI is project management. Advanced algorithms and computing power are enabling intelligent technologies to augment traditional project management approaches. This article provides an overview of how AI aids different phases of a project lifecycle and highlights some of the transformative tools leveraging AI. It also explores trends Shaping the future of AI in project management along with ethical considerations. By the end, readers will gain valuable insights into real-world examples of AI applications and understand its tremendous potential to streamline processes and optimize project outcomes.

Overview of AI in Project Management

Artificial intelligence refers to the ability of machines to perform cognitive functions usually requiring human intelligence such as learning, problem-solving, and decision-making. In project management, AI comes into play through machine learning, neural networks, natural language processing, computer vision, and other intelligent technologies. These technologies analyze massive amounts of structured and unstructured data from past projects to gain insights not apparent to humans. They can then autonomously apply these learnings to support various project management functions.
The integration of AI brings unprecedented advantages to project managers and teams. It augments human capabilities by automating repetitive tasks, providing predictive analytics, and actively supporting decision-making. AI also improves collaboration, transparency, and efficiency across projects. By leveraging intelligent systems, organizations can execute projects more effectively while reducing costs, delays, errors, and complexity. Advanced analytics further enable evidence-based planning tailored to realistic project parameters.
Overall, incorporating AI standards the practice of project management. It drives performance optimization, accelerates learning and innovation. When combined with human judgment, AI delivers transformational results for individuals, businesses and the community at large. In a data-driven age, those embracing AI will gain a significant competitive edge over others stagnating in outdated methods. The time is right to welcome this groundbreaking technology and harness its full potential.

Planning Phase

AI-Driven Planning Tools

Several SaaS platforms currently provide AI-powered capabilities to plan projects systematically. Popular tools like Smartsheet, Trello, and Monday.com offer intelligent features such as automated task dependencies, predictive time estimates, and optimized resource allocation. Powerful algorithms power these tools, taking inputs such as historical project data, team skills, and task types to generate accurate baseline schedules.
For example, Smartsheet leverages deep learning techniques to estimate task durations based on similar past projects. Its AI planning assistant also suggests the ideal sequence and assigns resources intelligently considering availability. Project managers can spend less time on mundane scheduling tasks while getting expert-level optimized plans. Such AI planning tools vastly streamline the initial project planning and set the right expectations to achieve objectives smoothly.

Predictive Analysis

Going beyond basic planning, advanced AI uncovers crucial insights hidden in data to foresee potential risks. Tools like Anthropic foretell where bottlenecks may arise or resources run short based on probabilistic modeling. Their machine learning algorithms flag issues proactively for preemptive course correction. Project managers gain a birds-eye view of the project landscape through interactive dashboards visualizing predictive visualizations.
Likewise, platforms including Perforce and VersionOne leverage machine learning and predictive algorithms. Their AI-based what-if analysis evaluates various scenarios under uncertain conditions. Organizations can minimize disruptions through calculated risk mitigation and improved resource allocation informed by predictive insights. Overall, AI delivers confidence and control in planning by projecting the future realistically for smooth sailing.

Execution Phase

Task Automation

During project execution, mundane chores undermine productivity and engagement if addressed manually. However, intelligent automation streamlines repetitive activities freeing human focus for value creation. Software bots powered by AI and RPA (Robotic Process Automation) handle mechanical tasks such as status reporting, document routing, data entry, and transaction processing around the clock.

2024.05.18 02:44 UnseatingKDawg [PC] [90s] 2D Puzzle Platformer where you play as a kid with a hat that shoots lasers

Platform(s): PC (played on Windows 98)
Genre: 2D Puzzle Platformer
Estimated year of release: Mid to late 90s? (I was born in 93, this time frame was around the time I first played on PC)
Graphics/art style: 2D 16-Bit graphics, cartoon-style, vibrantly colored. The environments were bright and colorful, but it seemed like you were in ruins or temples. I THINK the ruins were based on Rome, Greece, and Aztec, and some other fourth location that was blue and black. I remember the final set of levels being based on each location.
Notable characters: The player character was a kid who wore a red hat that could shoot yellow lasers from it. I believe he also wore a jacket, jeans and sneakers, maybe sunglasses. I think the main villain was also a scientist or along those lines.
Notable gameplay mechanics: Platforming was separated into different rooms, and the most defining trait was rotating triangular prisms using floor switches to line them up, then you'd fire a laser from your hat to make it bounce off the prisms to hit a switch. I do remember a couple other obstacles like rotating platforms and conveyor belts, but the laser bouncing is what I remember most.
Other details: I've been revisiting some old PC favorites from that time, like Toy Story, Maui Mallard in Cold Shadow, Need for Speed 2 and Nicktoons Racing, but this one has eluded me thus far. I didn't go past Windows 98 playing it though; I don't think it was compatible at the time for XP and later.
