It points out that aspects traditionally used to demarcate and characterize human aesthetics-such as appreciation of symmetry, proportion and color, as well as pleasure, valuation and empathy, sensory seduction, creativity, and skills for representation, even fiction-are present not only in humans but among a variety of plant and animal species. The text leads us along three distinct but entwined areas: from the world of matter to that of living matter to the realm of cultivated living matter for exploring how and why sensibility could have evolved. Drawing upon Baumgarten’s foundational definition of aesthetics as scientia cognitionis sensitivae, this book proposes a non-anthropocentric approach to aesthetics as well as the use of empirical evidence to sustain its claims updating aesthetic understanding with contemporary biosemiotic and evolutionary theory. It argues that there is appreciation and discernment of quality, order, and meaning by organisms in various species determined by their morphological adaptations and environmental conditions. Taking on Darwin’s insistence against Wallace that animals do have a sense of beauty, and on recent evolutionary observations, this book compellingly argues that sensibility is a biological faculty that emerges together with life. The Indispensable Excess of the Aesthetic: Evolution of Sensibility in Nature traces the evolution of sensibility from the most primal indications detectable at the level of cellular receptors and plant tendril sensitivity, animal creativity and play to cultural ramifications.

We're working actively on the layout editor, but as you can see we could use help in lots of areas, from feature development, to icon work, to bug fixing, to bug reporting! You can now go and try for example the Layout Editor, by opening res > layout > main.xml. The only trick is that it asks you for a "Min SDK Version", and here you should again type "AOSP". Do New > Android Project, and in the New project dialog, you need to go and choose the AOSP platform in the platform listbox. Now that you have your Android versions configured, you can create a new Android project. The reason we don't use a number for the trunk version is to prevent you from accidentally building an app compiled against this trunk version, and then releasing it on the market. If you instead point to officially released versions of Android, you'll see versions like "5", "6" and "7". You should be able to compile and run them, ignoring any compile errors in the test plugin.Īfter a brief pause you should now see a platform listed in the listbox in the Android panel, and it will identify itself as version "AOSP".
In Civilization IV players could force things on their country and opposing nations in the form of religions and government. I say Civilization V is only "good" - and not "great," as I would have said about Civilization IV - at crafting stories because I feel like the game's taken away some pretty important tools for customizing your society. Civilization V really is what you make of it, and for me it's a good way to tell alternate stories about some of history's most interesting nations. I love taking the Japanese and making them into a peaceful country who wants nothing more than to make Opera houses and win over their neighbors via their culture, or take the Aztecs and fashion them into a powerful imperialistic nation that is completely fascist and obsessed with world domination. The reason? Because win or lose, Civilization V allows players to guide an entire society and craft their own story, taking them from the dawn of history and far into the future. Like its predecessors, Civilization V is amazingly addictive, with games commonly drawing more than five or six hours out of me in a single sitting. And hell yes, this is the type of game that you want to just play over and over. It essentially makes for infinite replayability, giving players a simple tool set to craft the challenge they want in of the world over and over again. Besides picking a nation, players can further customize their scenario by switching between options such as whether the world will be made of several continents or not, what era they start in (Civ moves in eras, such as Medieval, Renaissance, etc., which also influences the level of technology you have access to), and how many other civilizations they wish to compete with. Hexagons in Civ V make for more natural unit movement. Of course you can always pick a military-focused leader and take them on a route towards a cultural victory, but this will also present a greater challenge. For instance the French get cultural bonuses that give them a huge bonus towards a cultural victory, while playing Germany will give players access to powerful military units like the Panzer tank that can aid in taking over the world by force. Each civilization is led by a great leader from history, and gets a few special benefits and units, so its' important to consider what type of victory you're out to achieve before setting your nationality. The biggest choice a player will make is what civilization they're going to play. Civilization has no campaign, instead it simply allows the players to create a world of their devising and jump right into it either by themselves or with others in multiplayer. And, yes, Civilization V can look seriously boring to the casual bystander, but for the person at the helm of the game each turn can lead to a weighty decision, giving the player a certain feeling of power that few, if any, games match. It's a turn-based strategy game based around building up a selected society into a world power. And that cake-like structure isn’t going away any time soon, with voice command search, apps, and mobile search introducing their significant corrections into the way we google stuff. That’s why over time, Google search results have become much more multilayered, including the results of varying complexity and formats, like a giant layer cake. While it used to be like that in the past (as seen above), the primary purpose and driving force of Google - or any search engine for that matter - has always been to have your queries answered as quickly and efficiently as possible, and in a way that will attract your attention but be easy on the eyes. When you search for things on Google, what you see is not just an index of pages with URLs or so-called organic searches. To scrape Google search results, we first need to understand how Google sees and prioritizes our searches. Google SERP interface in the beginning of the 2000s How do you scrape Google SERP? Does this prehistoric SERP interface ring a bell? Luckily, we’re not there anymore. It’s a far cry from the 2003 version of Google results. Those now-classic Google SERP features were part of the Hummingbird algorithm release in 2013. Google SERPs have changed a lot over the years, with the most prominent features being those infoboxes we all know too well - Knowledge Graphs, Carousels, Featured Snippets - so ubiquitous these days that we can’t imagine the Google SERP interface looking any other way. You can consider the terms Google page, Google search page, and Google SERP to be equal and interchangeable, but we’ll stick with Google SERP for the sake of being technically correct. We need to know this term to understand how to use web scraping on the Google Search Engine. SERP, in this case, stands for Search Engine Results Page, and you’ll find SERPs not only on Google, which controls 90% of the search engine market, but also on other search engines, such as Bing, Yahoo, and others. Get data from Google pages Go to Google SERP ScraperĪ Google SERP is a page containing the list of search results that Google displays to you when you type in your query and hit Enter.

I learned about it on a Friday and I was using it by Monday. And once you learned about it, how long did it take before you started using it in the classroom? cherie shields So I guess my first question for you is, how did you hear about ChatGPT. Other schools are trying to adapt and make their curriculum more ChatGPT friendly. Some districts, including New York City Public Schools, have banned ChatGPT, saying that it’s just a tool for students to cheat on their homework and have the AI write their essays for them. And right now it seems like a lot of the education world is scrambling to try to figure out what to do about tools like these. So we wanted to talk with you, Cherie, because you are using ChatGPT, this new AI tool, in your classroom. And we are excited to pepper you with questions. Well, the sound of the bell means that class has begun. And I have been teaching creative writing, college credit English, and currently advanced ninth grade English, which is just basically the regular English but souped up a little bit. And I have been at this current school that I met - did you hear my bell ringing? Isn’t that nice? I’m actually at my school. Currently I’m teaching in Oregon, in a little town called Sandy. I’ve been a high school English teacher for 30 years. Would you just start by introducing yourself to our listeners? cherie shields and our exclusive review of the hit new horror movie and living meme, “M3GAN.” kevin roose This week on the show, a high school English teacher tells us how ChatGPT has already transformed her school, why Gen Z is obsessed with 20-year-old digital cameras - casey newton I’m Casey Newton from “Platformer.” kevin roose I’m a tech columnist at “The New York Times.” casey newton It’s called “First Person.” You can find it in your podcast app. And I think listeners of this show will enjoy it. It basically requires tech companies to make it easier for you to fix the stuff that they sell you, so that you don’t have to keep buying new phones, and new phones, and new phones, and filling up landfills, so really interesting conversation. And recently he got a big victory when New York State passed its new Right to Repair Law, which is the first such law in the country. And Kyle has become sort of the leader of that movement. Lots of companies, including Apple, have fought this sort of right to repair movement. Right, which sounds pretty obvious but has been a topic that has been very contentious in the tech industry for a long time. It’s the basic idea that if you own a gadget that you should be able to fix it, and it shouldn’t be up to the manufacturer of that thing whether you can fix it or not. And he’s also become a major figure in this movement that’s known as right to repair. iFixit, the website that basically teaches you how to fix your gadgets. It’s an interview with this guy named Kyle Wiens. And this week’s episode is a sort of “Hard Forky” episode. So this show is called “First Person.” It’s hosted by Lulu Garcia-Navarro. Why don’t you tell me about a podcast? kevin roose But first, I want to tell our listeners about another “New York Times Podcast” that I think they might enjoy. : We’re going to start the show in just a second. Please review the episode audio before quoting from this transcript and email with any questions. While it has been reviewed by human transcribers, it may contain errors.

This application is designed to help you deploy the Windows operating system to a USB hard or flash disk. The name of WinToUSB reveals its purpose right from the start. This challenge was initially addressed by the re-popularization of micro-inverters and later the invention of power optimizers. Due to that growth many installers had projects that were not "ideal" solar roof tops to work with and had to find solutions to shaded roofs and orientation difficulties. Solar panel installers saw significant growth between 20. In 1954, this design was first used by Bell Labs to create the first commercially viable silicon solar cell. In 1939, Russell Ohl created the solar cell design that is used in many modern solar panels. However, these solar panels were very inefficient, especially compared to coal-fired power plants. In 1881, the American inventor Charles Fritts created the first commercial solar panel, which was reported by Fritts as "continuous, constant and of considerable force not only by exposure to sunlight but also to dim, diffused daylight". After this discovery, William Grylls Adams and Richard Evans Day published "The action of light on selenium" in 1876, describing the experiment they used to replicate Smith's results. The observation by Becquerel was not replicated again until 1873, when the English electrical engineer Willoughby Smith discovered that the charge could be caused by light hitting selenium. Though these initial solar panels were too inefficient for even simple electric devices, they were used as an instrument to measure light. In 1839, the ability of some materials to create an electrical charge from light exposure was first observed by the French physicist Edmond Becquerel. See also: Solar cell § History, and Timeline of solar cells Solar panels are widely used for residential, commercial, and industrial purposes, as well as for space and transportation applications. Some disadvantages are that they depend on the availability and intensity of sunlight, require maintenance and cleaning, and have high initial costs. Some advantages of solar panels are that they use a renewable and clean source of energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and lower electricity bills. This is called a grid-connected photovoltaic system. A photovoltaic system can be used to provide electricity for off-grid applications, such as remote homes or cabins, or to feed electricity back into the grid and earn credits or payments from the utility company. A photovoltaic system consists of one or more solar panels, an inverter that converts DC electricity to alternating current (AC) electricity, and sometimes other components such as controllers, meters, and trackers. Solar panels are usually arranged in groups called arrays or systems. Solar panels are also known as solar cell panels, solar electric panels, or PV modules. The electrons flow through a circuit and produce direct current (DC) electricity, which can be used to power various devices or be stored in batteries. PV cells are made of materials that generate electrons when exposed to light. For solar thermal panels, see solar thermal collector and solar thermal energy.Ī solar panel is a device that converts sunlight into electricity by using photovoltaic (PV) cells. Unfortunately, the latter currently does not support TPM passthrough ( coming soon), meaning you cannot create a Windows 11-compatible VM. It was also possible to run Windows 11 in VirtualBox. TechRadar Verdict VMware Workstation Player, or VMware Player, is an effective tool for any computer user who wants to run a second, isolated operating system on their PC. If using Windows 11 on a virtual machine in VMWare is not your cup of tea, we have a dedicated guide about installing Windows 11 using Hyper-V. Now you can launch your virtual machine and enjoy the restored performance. That is how you disable side-channel mitigations in VMWare Player to fix lags in Windows 11-based virtual machines. Add the following line to the list of parameters: ulm.disableMitigations="TRUE".Enable extensions for files in Windows 11 and Windows 10, then find the VMX file (virtual machine configuration file).Go to the folder where you keep your virtual machine.It allows us to deploy a virtual machine in Linux and Windows PC. Shut down your Windows 11 VM and close VMWare Player. VMware Workstation Player is a desktop virtualization tool. Disable side-channel mitigations in VMWare Player If you want to learn more about Workstation Player. The VMware Workstation Player documentation describes how to use VMware Workstation Player on Linux and Windows hosts to create, use, and manage virtual machines. Learn how to enable or disable Hyper-V in Windows here. Use the links in the VMware Workstation Player Documentation section that follows to access the VMware Workstation Player guides. VMware Player runs virtual machines created by VMware Workstation, VMware. For more information, see the System Requirements section of the user manual for the product: VMware Player 3.x User Manual VMware Player 4.x User Manual VMware Player 5.x User Manual VMware Player 6.x User Manual VMware Player 7. This program is really good compared to the other FREE VIRTUAL players out in the market. VMware Player is free software that enables users to easily run any virtual. Before starting Ensure that your physical machine meets the system requirements for VMware Player. Note that the message with a recommendation to disable side-channel mitigations appears only on systems with Hyper-V enabled. This program is completely free from VMware Inc. The software will warn you about potential performance downgrades when using a virtual machine with side-channel mitigations.īut the problem is that VMWare Player does not provide an option to disable side-channel mitigations in the settings UI (similar to how it does not allow you to add a Trusted Platform Module inside settings for a specific VM).įortunately, you can fix poor performance in Windows 11 running in VMWare Player by disabling side-channel mitigations in the machine's configuration file. A great way to provide a managed desktop for all your students, employees or contractors. The way to do this depends on whether you are going to install an OS manually, or - as in your case - you are going to deploy a vendor image. The next step is to deploy the VMs you need. You might encounter one particular issue when running a Windows 11-based virtual machine in VMWare Player. Download VMware Workstation Player 16.2.1 Build 18811642 free. 12-22-2018 10:46 AM Welcome to the Community, no, that's basically all you need to do to use the application. I have the version 8 and version 10 side by side. There is a free trial.“Simplified” layout is actually more confusing It will let you control any computer from anywhere in the world as if you were sitting in front of it, according to the developer. Screens 4 is a virtual network computing (VNC) solution available for macOS and iOS developed by Edovia. We’ve included a few legacy methods that may or may not work for you depending on your operating system. There are some other options you could try. Other options for Remote Access and Screen Sharing Alternatively select the Mac and choose Share Screen.Select the computer you want to connect to and click Connect As.Now when you open the Finder you should see shared computers in the sidebar.In the shared section select Back to My Mac.To access your Mac remotely from an other Mac using Back to my Mac: Go through the set up options if required.Under the Remote Login pane to the right of the box you’ll see a message appear under the now green button, which gives you the address your remote friend requires to access your device. To enable the feature go to System Preferences > Sharing and tick the box for Remote Login that you’ll find in the Service box on the left hand of the screen. If you’re not sure what those things are, then you’ll probably want to leave this method well alone. When enabled this allows users to access your Mac via SSH and SFTP. How to use Remote LoginĪnother feature built into macOS is the setting for Remote Login. This probably isn’t a problem as Apple’s servers are unlikely to go down, but should you lose access to your Apple ID account you might end up facing a bit of a crisis if you can’t recover your files. You should also note that your iCloud Drive can’t be backed up. We find that we avoid working on the wrong version if we open a file from the Finder rather than using Recent Documents within an app. This can mean that we confuse iCloud with two versions of the same document. Now all you need to do is make sure that everything you are working on is either saved to your Desktop, your Documents folder, or in the case of Apple apps (such as Pages), saved to the folder associated with that app.Īnother issue is that it’s possible for things to get a bit out of sync, especially if you leave documents open on one Mac while you work on them on another.If you tick this box then, assuming you have adequate space, the contents of your iCloud Drive will be stored on the Mac, but as you run out of space on your Mac some older documents will only be stored in iCloud. Also, note the box at the bottom of the window that offers to Optimise Mac Storage.Make sure the box beside Desktop & Documents Folder is ticked (checked).Apps such as Pages and Numbers can be set to store associated documents in iCloud for example. Here you’ll see a list everything you can store in iCloud. You can access all your files on all your devices if you store them in iCloud Drive and you can do this automatically if you agree to have your Desktop & Documents Folder stored in iCloud. You can close apps, move windows and more. Likely to include your Mac’s name.local.Ī window will open with the other screen showing. Enter the phrase that you will find below the Computer Name section of the Sharing System Preferences page.Now on the Mac you want to access the screen from, press Command + Space and start typing Screen Sharing to open that app.On the Mac whose screen you want to access remotely, open System Preferences.If you want a slightly less laggy way to share screen, and you are both on the same network, you can adjust your setting for Sharing in System Preferences and connect to the other screen. |
