![]() And Daniel’s way with these vegetables is damn good. And now it’s spring, so even if the asparagus or leeks are from California or Mexico this month, I want them. So what does a chef, whose been cooking with great ingredients in Paris, do when he or she gets to New York City? Well, how about cooking in that style, but using many of the great ingredients we have available? I’m certainly not one who insists that ingredients have to be local or grown on the roof that’s fairly impossible here over the winter. The chef is Daniel Eddy, who was chef de cuisine, at Spring in Paris, for a few years – yep, he really cooked there, as opposed to showing it on his resume, a la every cook and his brother claiming a stage at noma. Rebelle’s from the team that also runs Pearl & Ash, right next door. Once seated (and it’s worth mentioning that Rebelle actually has comfortable bar seats), cocktails in hand, our plans changed and I asked one of the très chic hostesses about a table in the dining room the next thing you know, we’re being escorted to a table into the skylit (well, during the day, anyway) back room, sitting and looking at one of the très gorgeous open kitchens I’ve seen in New York – like…ever. But when we peeked in, we saw two seats open at the bar, and decided to at least stop in for a drink. ![]() Originally, our plan was to walk by Rebelle, see if if was slammed, and continue walking north on the Bowery to another destination. I mean, not on the Boulevard Saint-Germain or anything, but maybe, just maybe, somewhere in Paris. ![]() You know, if it weren’t for the Bowery Mission directly across the street, or the traffic heading to and from the Manhattan and Williamsburg bridges, or the fact that Significant Eater and I walked to the brand-spanking new Rebelle in under 15 minutes, we could’ve sworn we were in Paris. In the midst of New York City, find a delicious taste of Paris at Rebelle restaurant with a beautiful space, great food, an extensive wine list, and understanding staff. ![]() ![]() You can restore from a Time machine backup without or after installing an operating system. When the backup is completed, the hard drive will NOT be bootable, meaning that you can’t run macOS from your Time machine backup. The backup includes docker files, npm packages, your personal files etc. I’ve also noticed that when restoring from a backup you will need to sign in to App Store and iCloud again and Chrome extensions need to be re-installed. The rest of the exclusions are for system things like caches and databases that exist to index other files where the system can regenerate these databases after a restore. Some of the more obvious user file exclusions are Trash, Document revisions and MobileBackups from the local Time Machine store are all excluded. It excludes log files, Spotlight indexes, caches, temporary files and trash (have a look: On OS X, what files are excluded by rule from a Time Machine backup?). Time Machine by default backs up nearly everything in your macOS partition. Backing up your devices to NAS using Time Machine No performance penalty from the second redundant drive and you still have protection the trade-off is you get a big performance penalty when the hot spare is activated (while it rebuilds) and there’s still a risk of the array failing if a second drive fails while the array is rebuilding. You may consider setting it up with SHR1 and a hot spare. No penalty from simultaneous use as long as each use is on a different volume. ![]() One drive needs to fail before there is a risk of data loss.Slight performance penalty in situations where there is significant use from two sources.Two drives need to fail before there is a risk of data loss.The only advantage you would gain would be less loss of data if an array fails, but at the cost of a higher risk of array failure. Let’s take an example a NAS with 4 x 6TBb drives. The advantage to creating multiple volumes comes when you are using different size drives, want different levels of redundancy, or have significantly different uses. That being said, in this case you want to just make one, and then create shares to logically organize things. You can use the Synology RAID calculator to help determine how you want to set up volumes. It's from this computer you decide when to perform the backups (as long as the other Mac is power on of course!) and how it's done (which files to back up etc.).It’s important that before you start you understand the concept of volumes on Synology Diskstations, because that’s the first thing you will need to set up before you set up Time Machine backups. Then, on the Mac with the backup drive attached (in my case I have a USB-dock for removing/inserting standard 3.5" SATA drives) you have to have Chronosync installed. I don't think I messed around with the other options. As far as I remember I didn't do much apart from assigning a username/password (for allowing access). Using its System Preference you can configure various options. The ChronoAgent software is installed on the Mac which needs to be backed up. Here's a quick summary on how this all works: It looks to work very well now, and I think this has been a great investment.Īctually I bought a second ChronoAgent license after the first one as I want to back up another Mac the same way (one license covers one Mac, but if you have many you can buy a 5-license pack and save some money if you need that many, as far as I can remember). It's been working very well, but with some minor mistakes underway which I believe have now been fixed (no fault of Chronosync/ChronoAgent, but my experience with Chronosync is that it has so many options that you need to go through several backups and do adjustments to its settings). Thanks to your explanation I got a general understanding of how it all worked and was able to try it out even without reading the manual.

I enjoy being at the events and I especially enjoy watching the fun everyone has at the photo booth. ![]() But photography as a hobby is very expensive. My motto is “If it’s not fun, I’m out”! I’ve been in marketing for years and specifically, in the event industry. Answer (1 of 5): Many people with an instinctive aesthetic sense for visuals and light play get attracted to photography accidentally. ![]() ![]() ![]() Meanwhile there is an earthquake/acid eruption/ion storm/meteor shower/giant swarm/nest every few minutes. ![]() The combat just isn't deep enough to make it interesting almost non-stop for hours on end. You either train them around and try to take the enemies out en masse, or you have to stop each time to kill them. Or if you don't need resources, it is "criss-cross the map looking for a vague something", or "There is a nest spawning enemies/large creature on the other side of the map, go kill it." Regardless, most of your time is spent trudging across the map, getting swarmed every few seconds. You'd think that the other biomes would make add variety, but they mostly just give you the same enemies with a different skin, while putting you in environments that are basically "if you stray from the path into the (radiation crystals/fire/acid yeast) you'll take damage." Spend 45 minutes to an hour like this, then go do it again for another resource. Finally your scanner pings - and you get 43 out of the 500. Go gather 500 resources of (type.) You have to stroll around with scanner, hoping it will ping, while being attacked by huge numbers of enemies every few seconds. I'm in the mid-game now, and it's grindy and tedious. This wants to be a good game, and it is for a while, but its gameplay outstays its welcome. Much more like that and I'll be leaving it behind.Īlso: I know my carbonium storage is full, and that the resource queue is empty, but I'm dealing with an enemy swarm while trying to set up a brand new base without any defenses yet in the middle of a meteor shower, so why not STFU until things settle down? I still love the concept, but the acid biome hasn't been fun. Problem #4: Luckily I didn't have this issue, but I read about a lot of other people with it: random events beyond your control (like meteor showers) can destroy the mission objective, effectively ending progression, as in 'game breaking' unless you have a save to roll back to. Remember the part about not being able to build towers? And they attack with massive numbers of artillery type creatures, which means you have to run out into the field to stop them. When enemies attack, they attack through the field that kills you, even with the corrosive plating on your armor. The thing you have to defend is in the middle of an field of exploding acid plants. The issue is that you can't build towers, as they will either A) attack and destroy the mission objective, or B) attack all of the infinitely respawning plants until they are out of ammunition for the actual attacks. Standard 'build a specific building and defend it for X minutes' mission. I was building research towers near all the smaller ones because I had never actually seen the thing and had no idea what they were talking about. The problem was that they tell you, "There's the root!" when you are nowhere near it. ![]() ![]() ![]() Catherine: Full Body is immediately available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and Nintendo Switch.

Where there’s supposed to be zero lag when you tap the shutter button, we’re seeing the Pixel 3 take up to four seconds at times to actually capture the photograph. We have confirmed this problem on our Pixel 3 XL, and it even extends to snapping a picture. Starting the camera app on older Pixels had always been a snappy affair, so it was puzzling to see it taking a few seconds to load on the Pixel 3. The Pixel 3’s camera is incredible, but quite a few people are noticing the camera app itself can sometimes take a while to start up.

Routinely check for updates on your phone and install them when they arrive.To do so, go to Settings > Apps > Messages > Storage, then tap Clear Storage. A Google expert has recommended clearing your Messages app storage.However, there have been continued complaints about this issue all the way up until February 2020. Google acknowledged the problem quickly and promised a fix would be rolling out soon. According to a report from Android Police, the latest Pixel 3 security update is causing some text messages to disappear on some devices. Have you noticed text messages on your Pixel device disappearing? You’re not going crazy. Other users have found the missing images by using file browsing apps - they’re simply not showing up in Google Photos.If you’re still having problems, make sure your Google Photos app is up to date. While a fix isn’t confirmed, it seems that updates to Google Photos have stopped this issue.This bug seems to occur on both the Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL. People have checked the Trash folder but to no avail. Multiple people have complained that they’ve taken photos across the span of a night and viewed those photos immediately afterward, only to find that some images have simply disappeared. The latest problem is that photos are simply disappearing from people’s albums. The Pixel 3 has had its fair share of photography problems, which is unfortunate for a phone that’s topped our list of the best camera phones since its release. Chances are, most of your media and document files are already backed up to Google Photos and Google Drive, so you can retrieve them afterward, but be prepared to lose anything that hasn’t been backed up.

Packages such as pydbgen, which is a wrapper around Faker, make it very easy to generate synthetic data that looks like real world data, so I decided to give it a try. Python has excellent support for synthetic data generation. The question was whether any of those solutions would be able to handle the scaling requirements for this project because we were not talking about hundreds of thousands of rows, but billions of rows for most of the fact tables. Without access to the customer’s data, my only option was to create synthetic data that matched the customer’s data in terms of structure (schema) and size.Īlthough database professionals often need to generate data for test or demo purposes, it is an age-old challenge in spite of the fact that there are many tools and open source frameworks available for creating synthetic data.
