There have been a number of Scientific discoveries that seemed to be purely scientific curiosities that later turned out to be incredibly useful. Hertz famously commented about the discovery of radio waves: “I do not think that the wireless waves I have discovered will have any practical application.”

Are there examples like this in math as well? What is the most interesting "pure math" discovery that proved to be useful in solving a real-world problem?

The man who opened fire outside a Michigan church filled with worshippers before he was struck by a vehicle and then fatally shot by security staff had attended services there a couple of times in the last year and his mother is a member, police said.

"The Office of Cybersecurity has deemed WhatsApp a high-risk to users due to the lack of transparency in how it protects user data, absence of stored data encryption, and potential security risks involved with its use," the CAO said in an email obtained by Axios.

A federal judge in Nashville Sunday denied a Trump administration motion to detain Kilmar Ábrego García, a Maryland man illegally deported to an El Salvador prison in March, as the government pursues unrelated federal criminal charges filed before he was brought back to the U.S. on June 6. In a separate high-profile Trump-era immigration case, former Columbia student and pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil returned to New York City, and his wife and newborn son, on Saturday after being released following more than three months of detention in Louisiana.

Iran's Supreme National Security Council released a statement confirming the attack and claiming the number of missiles fired was equal to the number of bombs the U.S. used in its strike on Saturday.

"The base that was targeted in the attack by the powerful Iranian forces was far from urban facilities and residential areas in Qatar," the statement said.

The Foreign Ministry of Qatar issued a statement saying Qatari air defenses "thwarted the attack and successfully intercepted the Iranian missiles," with no injuries or deaths reported.

NYC comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander was arrested by ICE at immigration court Tuesday, according to his spokesperson.

Brad Lander, 55, is the current NYC comptroller and a progressive who advocates for police reform, affordable housing, and better management of the migrant crisis.

Apparently, Lander has been accompanying immigrants exiting immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza and Lower Manhattan to help shield them from possible detention by ICE.

I have mine in a dadabase.

So I recently moved most of my docker storage to a second hard drive, called "storage." After a system restart, docker is creating a folder called "storage," forcing the physical drive to be renamed "storage1." How do I prevent this from happening?

I am using Xubuntu.

Edit: As suggested, it was indeed my system spinning up Docker before mounting the internal disk. The solution (should work on most Unix-like systems) was to manually add a line to /etc/fstab as follows: First get the UUID for the problem drive

~$ sudo blkid -s UUID

The output will show your drives and the UUID of each. Then edit the following file:

~$ sudo mousepad /etc/fstab #{or use your choice of editor, i.e. nano}

Add the following line:

/dev/disk/by-uuid/{UUID number copied from blkid output} /destination/of/your/drive ext4 defaults 0 0

Of course replace {UUID number copied from blkid output} and /destination/of/your/drive and set defaults & parameters as needed. These worked for me.

Restart the system and the drive should be forced to mount before docker starts. This seems to be a known issue with certain docker setups.
