Adding elements together as if im just placing them next to eachother?

25 February 2026 @ 11:25 pm

I'm not really sure how to explain this question, but I hope its ok enough. Im writing a project for school, and one of the requirements is to add elements from a substring together and determine if they're a prime, but the way my class wants me to do so is to add them as if I was timzing one of the numbers by 10 and adding them together that way. For example; if a substring contains {1, 2, 3}, the results of adding each element up shouldn't equal 3, 4, 5 etc; they should equal 12, 23, 31. I'm not entirely sure how to do this? I tried looking it up but I couldn't phrase it in a way that made sense. Please help, and thank you.

Im trying to set up a formula that allows me to input a link to a youtube playlist and grab the thumbnail it shows under the playlist preview. Currently the formula i'm using is: =IMPORTXML("https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhzzxN1u5y392mx3k9PnQvLjkf2vJCkIv","/html/body/ytd-app/div[1]/ytd-page-manager/ytd-browse/div[4]/ytd-tabbed-page-header/div/div/yt-page-header-renderer/yt-page-header-view-model/div[1]/cinematic-container-view-model/img/@src") When I input this formula into google sheets it tells me the imported content is empty.

How to make a racing game

25 February 2026 @ 10:53 pm

I'd like to make a racing game with Unreal, but I don't have any details and I don't have the drift function I want, so I'm inquiring. The driving function itself is not difficult, but I'd rather make a drift that appears in Project D than a realistic drift. What should I do?

Deploying valid AI models to Azure foundry just stopped working with an unhelpful error message

25 February 2026 @ 10:36 pm

I have some Bicep code that deploys AI models to Azure Foundry. They were deploying one day and then, with no code changes to the Bicep, they stopped working with this error: "code":"715-123420","message":"An error occurred. Please reach out to support for additional assistance." I have tried: Other models Removing my custom guardrails and using Microsoft.DefaultV2 but I cannot get the error message to change or go away.

How to adjust CSS to orientation during printing?

25 February 2026 @ 1:26 pm

I was trying to add a page break after an element when the page is in landscape orientation with a media query: @media print and (orientation: landscape) { .item2 { break-after: page; } } This works fine when the orientation is chosen in the print dialog. However, when the page size is suggested via css the page break does not appear: @page { size: a4 landscape; } Example: body { print-color-adjust: exact; } .item1, .item2, .item3 { width: 100%; height: 200px; } .item1, .item3 { background-color: gray; } .item2 { background-color: red; } @page { /* remove th

Backup GIT Repository Azure DevOps

25 February 2026 @ 9:12 am

For disaster recovery, my company needs backups of our ADO Git repos. My predecessor set up a backup by cloning the repos with --no-checkout option: git clone --no-checkout {ReposURL} {DestinationFolder} My questions are: Would it be better to back up the repos using --mirror instead of --no-checkout? How would I recover the files using my predecessors backup if the ADO Service ever shuts down or can't be accessed? Could I recover all files using the following command, even without access to the cloud service? git reset --hard HEAD
