Crucial HDD to SSD migration software - Crucial Community jimdandy wrote:I am sorry but this software is bonkers. I am literally only trying to clone the image backup, the system, and JUST the windows OS from my 1TB HDD to 275GB SSD and it's telling me I need another 632some odd GB of space on the target drive?? Even when I do successfully find enough "space" to clone, the program doesn't even launch.Is there anyone who can just tell me how to get a working version of windows OS on my new SSD so I can boot it and install games on it? As posted above, I highly recommend Macrium Reflect. Even their free edition far surpasses the dependability, backup and restoration abilities of Acronis' paid version. Acronis has a prettier GUI and that's it.

Quoting, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing It's Here: A new look for the Purdue OWL! The new version of the Purdue OWL is available at Worry not! Our navigation menu and content will remain largely the same. The World of Citation I was going to start this post by saying, "Citation is one of the hardest things I teach" but then I thought about it and realized that there's nothing I teach where I think, "Hey, no problem, everyone understands that immediately." But citation is definitely one of the most frustrating things I teach, because it can be such an abstract idea for students. Why, they want to know, do they have to include all those details? And why would anyone care what order the information was in? Can't they just throw in a title and a URL and be done with it already?

How intelligent is artificial intelligence? Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning algorithms such as Deep Learning have become integral parts of our daily lives: they enable digital speech assistants or translation services, improve medical diagnostics and are an indispensable part of future technologies such as autonomous driving. Based on an ever increasing amount of data and powerful novel computer architectures, learning algorithms appear to reach human capabilities, sometimes even excelling beyond. The issue: so far it often remains unknown to users, how exactly AI systems reach their conclusions. Therefore it may often remain unclear, whether the AI's decision making behavior is truly 'intelligent' or whether the procedures are just averagely successful. This so-called 'explainable AI' has been one of the most important steps towards a practical application of AI, according to Dr.

Best Email App for Mac: Airmail — The Sweet Setup The Mac’s default Mail application (also referred to as “Mail.app” or “Apple Mail”) has a somewhat checkered past. While Mail.app provides a free, full-featured email client on every Mac that is sold and has pioneered some innovative features over the years (like VIP and Handoff), it’s definitely not for everyone. It can be buggy and lacks some more advanced features that are present (and have been present for years) in other third-party email clients. If you use plug-ins to extend Mail.app’s functionality, Apple has a history of making changes that cause developers to re-write their plugins, resulting in a broken email workflow while you wait for updates. Fortunately, there is no shortage of superb third-party email clients that aim to fix Mail.app’s shortcomings.

Integrating Quotations into Sentences You should never have a quotation standing alone as a complete sentence, or, worse yet, as an incomplete sentence, in your writing. IVCC's Style Book explains this concept well with a good analogy that describes quotations as helium balloons. We all know what happens when you let go of a helium balloon: it flies away. In a way, the same thing happens when you present a quotation that is standing all by itself in your writing, a quotation that is not "held down" by one of your own sentences. The quotation will seem disconnected from your own thoughts and from the flow of your sentences. Ways to integrate quotations properly into your own sentences are explained below.

Use this e-book to help teach your students: Artificial Intelligence Safety and Security The history of robotics and artificial intelligence in many ways is also the history of humanity’s attempts to control such technologies. From the Golem of Prague to the military robots of modernity, the debate continues as to what degree of independence such entities should have and how to make sure that they do not turn on us, its inventors. Numerous recent advancements in all aspects of research, development and deployment of intelligent systems are well publicized but safety and security issues related to AI are rarely addressed. This book is proposed to mitigate this fundamental problem.

iPad Air 2 Review: Why the iPad Became My Main Computer Last week, I came across Kyle Vanhemert's story for Wired about the iPad and pondered, with a bit of fascination and surprise, his conclusion that “nobody knows what the iPad is good for anymore”. In particular, two arguments from the piece stood out to me. First, Vanhemert argues that iPhone software is unequivocally superior to iPad apps: An iPad might still be the best option for idly surfing around the web. Why reference? You probably know that it is important to use referencing in your writing at university, but why is it so important? Using the right sources in your work provides you with the supporting evidence you need in your assignment. Referencing is the acknowledgement of the sources that you use in your work. You must reference all sources that you use in your assignment, including words and ideas, facts, images, videos, audio, websites, statistics, diagrams and data.

Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Assessment for Learning in Schools: Education Book Chapter Abstract Assessment for Learning (AfL) is a process in measuring the learning outcome in students. Current practices in assessing the academic performance of students in most of the countries are still manual. It is based on the qualitative and quantitative feedbacks, obtained by expressed statement and marks, respectively. Fantastical 2 for Mac Review: Reinvented Fantastical for Mac, originally released in 2011, redefined calendar apps for OS X and my idea of a modern calendar client. Developed by Michael Simmons and Kent Sutherland – together known as Flexibits – Fantastical pioneered features and design choices that, with time, have become a staple of other calendar apps and OS X utilities: natural language input is now expected in popular todo apps and services; the OS X menu bar has grown into a popular destination for desktop utilities; integration with multiple calendar services in a single app is now a de facto standard. Fantastical was a powerful calendar assistant.
