...Unit Essay #1 My mom came to the United States from Honduras when she was in her late 20’s so it could be understood that she has been swayed by her heritage. I on the other hand, was born and raised in Miami where there’s a variety of cultures melting with one another, so it would be natural that we would have different point of views on certain topics. I know that Honduras will always be in her heart and she will always love tamales, rice and beans with tortillas but she’ll also have her racist and religious tendencies like my whole family does. When my cousin gave birth to her dark baby girl, she lectured me about ‘not defiling our race’. The only thing I always retort is with, “I know Mom!” and just try to get out of the conversation. It’s not just her either, it’s my whole family back in Honduras too. When I went to Honduras the previous summer, everyone asked if I had a boyfriend and if I did, was he black or not. To avoid their racist talk I just showed them my white friend and posed him as my boyfriend. The reason for my family being this racist is because of the culture in Honduras. When the Spaniards came to Honduras they also brought their slaves so in effect there are three major races. The pure Indians, Mestizos and the Afro-Honduran population. Since most of the population (including my family) are part of the Mestizo population, and they consider themselves superior than the rest, they look more down upon the Afro-Honduran group than the pure Indians. If in...

...Unit 1 Report Matt, an avid member of a local baseball rec league, is right handed and uses repetitive overhead motion when pitching the baseball. Wanting to impress his teammates, Matt tried to pitch the baseball as fast as he could. He immediately felt a snapping sensation in his shoulder and had sudden, intense pain in his upper arm. Upon a visit to an orthopedic physician, it was confirmed that he had a complete tear of one or more muscles in his right shoulder. Which group of muscles did Matt most likely tear? What are the individual names of the muscles comprised in this group? What is the function of these muscles and what are their attachment sites? Out of this group of muscles, which individual muscle is most often torn? • The rotator cuff is what Matt probably tore.

...Q1 What is the difference between a physical address and a virtual address? Answer: By physical address, we refer to the actual address of hardware physical memory (RAM). That means when a variable is stored at a physical address, that's the place where it's really stored in the RAM chip. If we are using physical addressing, a process also “knows” the entire layout of the physical memory. With virtual addressing, all process memory accesses go to the Memory Management Unit, which then maps the virtual address to a physical one. This mapping is done by maintaining a table of virtual addresses and the corresponding Page Frame they belong. Also, if the Page Frame is not in memory, the table includes the mapping on the disk. That way every process has its own “private” address space, and no other process can read or write to that memory. Additionally, because it can use the disk to store Page Frames, the virtual memory size is independent of the actual...

...From a young age, I always knew I wanted to go to college. I grew up watching my grandparents successfully own and run a preschool. They always taught me that if you ever want to be successful in life, you must focus on your studies and continue with education past high school. Their influence made me open my eyes to the knowledge school offered and I really thrived. I enjoyed going to school and learning subjects I knew little about and always put my 100% effort into every assignment I turned in. In Junior high, I joined various book clubs and different school programs which enhanced my education. After high school, immediately I went to college but without knowledge of where I wanted to focus my education on so I received my degree in general studies. After getting my Associates degree, I began to focus on my career. I began working for a fortune 500 home warranty company as a clerk answering phones and worked my way up to Project Manager. As a project manager, one of my best projects was leading a team that helped research, create and implement a new software for the entire company. That job changed my life. Through the experiences I went through as Project Manager, I learned that I loved business and in turn wanted to continue with my education even further. Once I transferred to a 4 year college, I changed to a Business Degree with a focus on accounting in which I excelled in all of my major classes with A’s and B’s. The information I learned through college from my professors...

...1. Why Linux is installed on only a very small fraction of desktop computers Linux is an open source software that can be downloaded free from the internet and used by the end users. Though the original creator of the software gave it freely, some firms have redesigned the operating system and sold it for profit. Other software firms have used it to create their commercial applications such as Oracle. The free availability of Linux has led to its wide use in mobile phones, enterprise software and consumer electronics. Despite its wide use for other purposes, only a small fraction has been used in desktop computers. There are various reasons why this occurs (Gallaugher, 2012). First, it is not easy to use Linux. Compared to other operating...

...TM1 What are virtual dimensions and how do you create them? Virtual dimensions are useful when a report uses attributes from the same dimension as the rows and columns in a report. This eliminates creating a cube with the same attributes recreated as dimensions. Virtual dimensions are created using Turbo integrator with the help of CreateHierarchyByAttribute function What is the difference betweenTM1 reporting and Cognos Reporting? Cognos reads data from source and reports and not suitable for forecasting or budgeting. TM1 reads and can write back the data if needed through a template Turbo integrator/Architect Have you set up an element level security in TM1? How do you do that? Can do using Rule based or dimension/branch level. Brach takes much lesser time while refreshing, whereas Rule introduces overhead What is TM1 REST API? Can access TM1 data that traditional or old TM1 interface cannot do. Need JSON (JavaScript object notation viewer) to read the return data or use tool like postman What is the process for migrating Development to Production? There is no version control, so follow best practices Performance Have you developed splitting models having cubes in different session running on a different box? What are the draw backs? Sessions won't communicate with each other very well and data stored on each server session should probably be fairly independent What are feeders? They are part of the TM1 sparse calculation engine where cells are calculated by rule and make...

...740 words. Question 3: “Describe the function of the following Docker commands and briefly explain the purpose of each of the parameters. docker run –d –p 8080:5000 –v $(pwd)/data:/data –name container1 lab4 Docker is a software containerization platform, that runs processes in isolated containers. The docker run command is used to define the containers resources at runtime. When the command is run, the container process is isolated. It is separate from the host itself. The –d command is an option run by Docker to communicate whether the container should be run in “detached” mode or in the “default mode”. The –d command signifies that the container should be run in detached mode, meaning the container will be run in the background. The next option used is –p. This is used to publish all exposed ports to the host interfaces. Docker, in turn, ‘binds’ each of the exposed ports to a host port, addresses of the published ports are 8080:5000. The –v command mounts the current working directory into the container. The –v command can be used multipule times to mount datat volumes. Here it is mounted once. The pwd command prints the working directory i.e. data:/data. The –name command assigns the name container1 lab4 as the container name. docker exec –it A637jd9dja /bin/bash The docker command docker exec runs a new command in an already running container. The command only runs while the containers PID (primary process) is running. If the container is paused the command...

...then there exist two natural number $m$ and $n$ such that $\sqrt{2} = \frac{n}{m}$ where $m \neq 0$ and the greatest common divisor of $m$ and $n$ is 1. Now, $\sqrt{2} = \frac{n}{m}$ implies $2 = \frac{n^2}{m^2}\ \Rightarrow n^2 = 2m^2$. The number $n^2$ is even because is equal to 2 times something, also $n$ is even, since even number times even number is always an even number. This means that $n$ can be written as $2k$ for some $k\in \textit{N}$. Substituting $n = 2k$ in $2 = \frac{n^2}{m^2}$ yield $2 = \frac{4k^2}{m^2} \Rightarrow m^2 = 2k^2$,...
