I think the ~/.mozilla/firefox/XXX.default-YYY/storage/default/https+++ZZZ.com/cache/https+++domain.com/ style dirs are the storage for what's called "service workers" which is persistent code related to each website that sends notifiications even if no related tab is open.
Suppose you have a favorite website that sells something, you might register with them that you're interested in a particular kind of product. A serviceworker for that site would be in the "ZZZ" folder named after that site, the code in there would run even if you don't have a tab open for that site. It's done so you can get a notification. In other cases it's some other code that the web designers don't want to have to reload each time you visit, caching it in your storage folder saves time and network.
You can see all your service workers in the Firefox menu: Help -> More troubleshooting information -> about:serviceworkers ( or load about:serviceworkers )
As a database developer, you want these sub-transactions or autonomous transactions to be processed and committed regardless of what happens to the larger surrounding transaction block.
The pg_background Postgres extension originally written by Robert Haas starts a separate worker to process a SQL statement, which is a nice way to achieve an autonomous transaction.
As the nation’s health protection agency, CDC saves lives and protects people from health, safety, and security threats. I used this website to look up information on rabies, as well as other diseases to compare it to.
A database that contains information about microRNAs and their targets in the genome. I use this to get information about miRNAs I encounter in articles.
Results derived from data obtained by Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) are extensively used in many areas of physics. It has been claimed recently that the published WMAP calibrated data and maps might be in question because of an undocumented timing offset in the official processing pipeline [The origin of the WMAP quadrupole, Hao Liu, Shao-Lin Xiong, Ti-Pei Li]. This timing error was shown to induce a quadrupole pattern in the final maps that is very similar to the officially published quadrupole mode. It is clear that a timing offset at the map-making stage will strongly affect the quadrupole scale, since the map-making in [The origin of the WMAP quadrupole, Hao Liu, Shao-Lin Xiong, Ti-Pei Li] was based on the official WMAP calibrated TOD. But there is also a possibility that the calibration process itself could be affected as well and we test this here. In this work we approximately reproduce the original dipole-based iterative calibration procedure to produce a calibrated data set starting from raw uncalibrated data. Using the calibrated data we generate a set of sky maps that we compare to the officially released maps and note some differences between our and official results. We also investigate the effects of various timing offsets introduced in the calibration stage on the final products. We find that a timing offset in the calibration process has little effect on the calibrated data and induced quadrupole.

Research during the last decades has greatly increased our understanding of brain plasticity, i.e. how neuronal circuits can be modified by experience, learning and in response to brain lesions. Currently available neuroimaging techniques that make it possible to study the function of the human brain in vivo have had an important impact. Cross-modal plasticity during development is demonstrated by cortical reorganization in blind or deaf children. Early musical training has lasting effects in shaping the brain. Albeit the plasticity is largest during childhood, the adult brain retains a capacity for functional and structural reorganization that earlier has been underestimated. Resent research on Huntington's disease has revealed the possibility of environmental interaction even with dominant genes. Scientifically based training methods are now being applied in rehabilitation of patients after stroke and trauma, and in the sensory retraining techniques currently applied in the treatment of focal hand dystonia as well as in sensory re-education after nerve repair in hand surgery. There is evidence that frequent participation in challenging and stimulating activities is associated with reduced cognitive decline during aging. The current concept of brain plasticity has wide implication for areas outside neuroscience and for all human life.

Human beings have an amazing capacity to learn new skills and adapt to new environments. However, several obstacles remain to be overcome in designing paradigms to broadly improve quality of life. Arguably, the most notable impediment to this goal is that learning tends to be quite specific to the trained regimen and does not transfer to even qualitatively similar tasks. This severely limits the potential benefits of learning to daily life. This review discusses training regimens that lead to the acquisition of new knowledge and strategies that can be used flexibly across a range of tasks and contexts. Possible characteristics of training regimens are proposed that may be responsible for augmented learning, including the manner in which task difficulty is progressed, the motivational state of the learner, and the type of feedback the training provides. When maximally implemented in rehabilitative paradigms, these characteristics may greatly increase the efficacy of training.
