very new here - first question in fact. So, don't be fooled by the title of my question. I understand that the Bell Paradox - and non-locality - prevents information being exchanged in a faster than light matter. So, Spaceman A on Neptune, cannot send a morse-coded message to Earth using quantum entangled particles - the need to force a particle to choose a state releases the entangled particle at the other end from behaving (instantaneously) in a determined matter. Information from Spaceman A cannot be sent from Neptune to Earth at faster than light. But - my question is - who cares about spaceman - or any conscious entity sending information - -the fact is the entangled particles themselves are affected at faster than light speed. Particle A observed on Neptune at midday will have the same state of spin as Particle B observed at an equal time on Earth. The observation and confirmation of the fact takes place retrospectively - but this doesn't detract from the fact that the wavefunction will be demonstrated to have collapsed simultaneously across a vast distance - something is acting on them at faster than light speed. Any thoughts, or comments to explain why this is wrong, greatfully recieved !! | According to the special theory of relativity, distant simultaneity depends on the observer's reference frame. And, according to the quantum theory, in the case of two entangled particles, a measure on one of the particles simultaneously affects the second one. Under which reference frame is this simultaneous? |
I know that $AB$ and $BA$ have the same non-zero eigenvalues, where $A$ and $B$ are rectangular matrices, but my question is: Is it necessary for $AB$ and $BA$ to have the same number of non-zero eigenvalues? In other words, suppose $AB$ is a $8*8$ matrix and $BA$ a $6 * 6$ matrix. Then can $AB$ have eigenvalues of $0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 3, 4$ when $BA$ has eigenvalues of $0, 0, 2, 2, 3, 4$? Writer's edit. Note that the question can be answered using the generalization of the Sylvester's Determinant Identity: and the generalization process: , meaning the answer to the original question, would be "True." | I know that if A and B are square nxn matrices, then AB and BA have the same characteristic polynomial and thus the same eigenvalues (and same algebraïc multiplicity). I'm wondering though if this can be generalized: if A is a nxm matrix and B a mxn matrix, then AB is a nxn matrix and BA a mxm matrix. So my question is: will the eigenvalues of AB and BA, that differ from zero, have the same algebraïc multiplicity? |
I'm still learning the linux file system and understanding where everything is installed. I'm coming from windows mindset and would like to wrap my head around the following directory equivalents: What is the following directory equivalent in ubuntu or just linux in general as im assuming its the same: c:\program files --- Where all the programs are installed. c:\windows --- Main OS core files. c:\Users --- Where all the users data reside c:\ --- All the startup / bootup files (config.sys / autoexec.bat) --- What other important directories should I know about to fully understand the ubuntu/linux file system structure? | In Windows there’re perhaps only a couple of important folders (by important I mean important in my logical picture of the Windows file system) in the installation drive (in my case C:\). Namely Program Files and Windows. I simply stay away from Windows folder and the “add remove program files” is good enough to handle the program files folder of Windows. Of course there’s a folder named Users where the users (who are not admins) can access only their folders. Thus there’s a clear picture at some level in my mind of the Windows file system. In Ubuntu, when I reach the location /, there’s a huge list of folders, most of which I have no clue as to what they contain. The /bin folder seems to be the equivalent of the Windows folder in windows. The /usr folder seems like it’s the equivalent of the Users folder in Windows. But even the /home folder looks like it can fit the bill. Please understand that I do understand, that Ubuntu (Linux) has a different character than that of Windows, i.e., there need not be exact equivalent of Windows functions, in Ubuntu. All I am looking for is a bit more clearer picture of the Ubuntu file system. This question is a part of a bigger question which I am splitting up to make it more answerable. The original question can be found here: |

I want in a document of mine to keep a lot of notes so I would like to create a custom counter so every note to be numbered like this: 0001 0002 0003 0004 (They are deliberately bold as this is the style I would like) I would like the counter to work like the enumerate environment so to add a keyword in front of the note I want to number and also to be able to reset it. The reasons I don't use the enumerate environment are: I want the numbers to be bold I want custom formatting of the numbers i.e. 0001 etc... I really want to see how I can create something like that. | I can output the value of a counter in a LaTeX document via: \setcounter{mycounter}{1} \arabic{mycounter} Which inserts a 1. But how do I format the output by, for example, adding a leading zero if mycounter is less than 10 in a way similar to what lets you do by specifying %02d as your format string? |
Why energy cannot be created nor destroyed if the Universe is still growing in size?There is creation of new space and infact this space is so energetic that causes 'Hubble flow' of matter... | In popular science books and articles, I keep running into the claim that the total energy of the Universe is zero, "because the positive energy of matter is cancelled out by the negative energy of the gravitational field". But I can't find anything concrete to substantiate this claim. As a first check, I did a calculation to compute the gravitational potential energy of a sphere of uniform density of radius $R$ using Newton's Laws and threw in $E=mc^2$ for energy of the sphere, and it was by no means obvious that the answer is zero! So, my questions: What is the basis for the claim – does one require General Relativity, or can one get it from Newtonian gravity? What conditions do you require in the model, in order for this to work? Could someone please refer me to a good paper about this? |
I use ryte to analyze my webpage and it gives the following advice: If the IP (173.###.###.###) of this domain gets called, it should redirect to the real homepage of this domain. Not redirecting requests on the IP can cause duplicate content issues. Currently my server hosted multiple domains, but it has only one IP address. The main domain(most important domain) is www.example.com So to improve SEO, should I let the access of the IP address, like below: https://173.###.###.### to be redirect to my main domain ?

Summary When I restart, applications that should reopen automatically afterwards do not do so. I've checked all of the relevant steps that I can find, however none have any effect. Basic information on this issue can be found in . System Details Windows 10 Enterprise, version 1903, build 18362.267. This is a fresh install (not an upgrade) of Windows 10 on a desktop that used to run Windows 7. It's not connected to an Active Directory. Problem Specifics When I restart, no applications reopen, although many should. Examples include browsers (e.g. Chrome, Firefox, Edge) and Microsoft Office programs (e.g. Outlook). As discussed in the comments below, the online documentation on this can be confusing since this feature in Windows has evolved over time, as have the applications that support it, but I am contrasting this problematic desktop with observed behavior on two other laptops, both of which received a clean Windows 10 Enterprise install. On both of these laptops, applications reopen both when Windows performs an automatic update + restart and when I initiate the restart, . In terms of problem diagnosis, I have run through a host of means of enabling/disabling this feature, however none have any effect on whether it occurs. I have verified that the requisite setting is enabled (see ). I have verified that the requisite registry key is set (see Option 2 ). I have verified that the local computer policy is set to "Not configured" (see Option 3 in last link). In all cases, toggling these has no effect on restart behavior, though the option in the Settings menu does disappear (as it should) when it is disabled by other methods. Lastly, note that folders do reopen on restart of the misbehaving computer, which, as also noted in mentioned at the start of this post, is a separate option from application restoring. Down the Road For future readers, there is also some discussion in about further evolution of this feature in future releases (starting in build 18963) about modification to the behavior. Although this is a later build than mine, out of an abundance of caution, I did try adding the registry key described (the setting doesn't appear in the Settings menu in my build, as it shouldn't), but this had no effect. | I have Windows 10 1809 Enterprise. When I restart Windows, the applications that were open are closed after restarting. Weren't they supposed to reopen automatically after 1709? |
One of the interesting moments in Billions was the end sequence of season 3 episode 9. John Malkovich's character (Grigor Andolov) started to tell a story, ostensibly a memory from his own past. The thing is, the story was completely unrelated to what they were talking about at the moment. What's more, it didn't even have an ending. All in all, I enjoyed watching it, but couldn't make much sense of it. | At the end of Billions, Season 3, Episode 9, Grigor Andolov (John Malkovich) tells a story to Bobby Axelrod (Damian Lewis) about the Christmas market in Moscow. He asks a question about what happened to a boy: Andolov: Many years ago, I was walking along the Moskva Christmas market. You ever seen Moskva Christmas market? Always a sense of good cheer, even during the lean years. I think it was the wine. They serve warm wine with the spices in it... cinnamon and... I was waiting on the line — everyone was always waiting on the line — and finally I got my cup, I turn, and there was this little boy. Runny nose. He looking at me so desirous of my cup of this warm, warm wine that I give him a sip. He stares at me with such a gratitude. And then I notice his mother. Plump breasts. She must have known someone. So I give him my cup of wine. And I take his mother away from the square. Behind the soldiers. And after, I leave her for the soldiers. And I walked back, and this little boy is staring at me with his greedy drunken eyes. Do you know what happened to him? Axelrod: No. Andolov: I always ask. No one ever knows. What is the real meaning of this story? And how is it connected to the Axelrod – Andolov relationship? |

I want to monitor system metrics at my application. I use Spring Boot Actuator but it doesn't have any metrics for CPU usage. I know that such metrics at Spring Boot Actuator retrieve from here: OperatingSystemMXBean It has methods like: getSystemLoadAverage getAvailableProcessors There is another class: MemoryUsage at which you can retrieve such metrics: getUsed getCommitted However I could not see any metrics for CPU Usage of the Java application at java.lang.management. How can I retrieve it? | I would like to monitor the following system information in Java: Current CPU usage** (percent) Available memory* (free/total) Available disk space (free/total) *Note that I mean overall memory available to the whole system, not just the JVM. I'm looking for a cross-platform solution (Linux, Mac, and Windows) that doesn't rely on my own code calling external programs or using JNI. Although these are viable options, I would prefer not to maintain OS-specific code myself if someone already has a better solution. If there's a free library out there that does this in a reliable, cross-platform manner, that would be great (even if it makes external calls or uses native code itself). Any suggestions are much appreciated. To clarify, I would like to get the current CPU usage for the whole system, not just the Java process(es). The SIGAR API provides all the functionality I'm looking for in one package, so it's the best answer to my question so far. However, due it being licensed under the GPL, I cannot use it for my original purpose (a closed source, commercial product). It's possible that Hyperic may license SIGAR for commercial use, but I haven't looked into it. For my GPL projects, I will definitely consider SIGAR in the future. For my current needs, I'm leaning towards the following: For CPU usage, OperatingSystemMXBean.getSystemLoadAverage() / OperatingSystemMXBean.getAvailableProcessors() (load average per cpu) For memory, OperatingSystemMXBean.getTotalPhysicalMemorySize() and OperatingSystemMXBean.getFreePhysicalMemorySize() For disk space, File.getTotalSpace() and File.getUsableSpace() Limitations: The getSystemLoadAverage() and disk space querying methods are only available under Java 6.

I was flicking through a book on perturbation methods and saw a simple question asking the reader to expand the following expression for $f$ in a power series (up to the first 2 terms): $f = (1 + \epsilon \,x)^{1/\epsilon}$, where $\epsilon$ is a small parameter. I'm sure this is very simple, but I wasn't certain about the best way to approach this. A quick look at mathematica tells me the solution is $e^x - \frac{1}{2} (e^x x^2) \,\epsilon + ...$. How would I go about getting this answer - and more importantly, how would I systematically find series expansions for problems similar to this one? | I was flicking through a book on perturbation methods and saw a simple question asking the reader to expand the following expression for $f$ in a power series (up to the first 2 terms): $f = (1 + \epsilon \,x)^{1/\epsilon}$, where $\epsilon$ is a small parameter.

Before I start this, I wanted to make it clear that I am NOT "ungrateful" of my parents in any way. I love them more than anything on the Earth, but I feel that they are way more strict than they have to be. Basically, I cannot have my phone after school or on weekends. I cannot go out with friends or have friends come to me, I cannot walk to my school or gym and my parents tend to treat my other brothers better than me. When I ever I try to talk to them, they put me off with the same response "the rules are not up for discussion". As if this was not restrictive enough, I have no privacy whatsoever. My parents constantly check browsing history and check my messages in the middle of the night without my knowledge. I understand the precautions parents need to take when their kids have phones, but this is just too much. I cant even talk to my friends online (if I even talk that much with them in the first place because I never have my phone) without a manner that my parents would approve of. I also have a feeling that this lack of social interaction is getting to me. Everything I do is repetitive and boring. I feel like a machine, doing the same thing over and over. In fact, I think this lack of social interaction is why I'm not as good as I used to be in school. Unless I have an incentive to work (ex. "Get good grades on this test and I will let you go out with your friends"), I wont try at all, therefore I would do badly since there was no reason for me to work. I try to explain this to them, but they just won't listen. You are probably thinking I'm delivering it the wrong way, but they end up being the immature ones who start getting mad while I stay silent, trying my best to convince them that social lives do not mean I fall into bad habits or bad influences. I feel like I express more of my feelings with friends rather than family, and that does not sit right with me. I am ashamed of myself when somebody invites me to hang out with them and I respond with absurd excuses like "I have to catch up on a lot of homework". I am regularly known as the kid who never leaves his house, and the people who mock me for that have every right to do so, because I agree with the fact that this is a boring and repetitive life that I have. Any good parent would know that this is a restrictive and boring life than the one I deserve. Please help me bring up points to use when I talk to my parents about these issues. | Before I start this, I just want to let everyone know that even though my parents can be completely clueless about parenting at times, I still love them very much, so don't go commenting that I'm "ungrateful" or whatever. My parents are just really strict about everything. I'm 15 years old, a sophomore in high school, and I'm basically not allowed to do anything. I don't have a phone (and therefore no social media or Internet) and my parents refuse to buy me one (we can afford one quite well though) even though every single person in my high school has one, and has had one since they were 12 or 13. I'm also not allowed to date and if my parents (especially my dad) ever see me talking to a guy they immediately interrogate me about who he is, what we were talking about, and then they remind me that I'm not allowed to date until I'm in college, and sometimes I feel like I can't ever talk to a guy without my parents sticking their noses into it. Yet another thing I am denied is to hang out with friends. I am allowed to have friends but my parents never let me go out with them without parent supervision. I can't have birthday parties either, or sleepovers, or "girls' day outs". I can't wear makeup either (also not until I'm in college) and I can't wear tank tops, crop tops, shorts, or anything else like that. I really don't know what to do anymore, I just don't think that I can live like this any longer. I've tried asking my parents to be a little less strict but they keep saying no. I am very responsible and mature, so it's not because of that. I know they have the best intentions for me but sometimes I think they're just taking it too far. For example, whenever I ask my dad if I can have a phone, he laughs in my face and says "Well there's the joke of the day!" or something along those lines. I also have to go to bed at 9:00 EVERY DAY, weekdays, weekends, and even during the summer! They don't allow me to stay up EVER, even if I have homework that I need to finish they say "Whatever, go to bed!" sometimes causing me to have to turn in assignments late. My bedtime is really just way too early and every day I just lie awake in bed and I don't fall asleep till like 11:00. If there's any research out there that could help change their minds, I'd really appreciate it, really just anything that could help me convince my parents, so thanks for reading! |

Recently I have learned about the one truly amazing cheap flight finding service, . But it's not a travel agent, it's only a search engine. So this site gives you the full and precise details of the flight that you must quote to a travel agent and in theory the agent should be able to book you a ticket on that specific flight and get very close to the price the site quoted. I am assuming there are other ways besides this flight search engine to find specific flight details where you can't necessarily buy the tickets, so my question is: When I have details of a specific flight I want to book at a quoted price, but I don't have access to a physical travel agency, is there somewhere I can book that flight online?

Traveling on Aug 9th and returning on Aug 24th. Now, I've been looking for several days (almost 10days!) for ways to book this itinerary I found on ITA. All other websites like Expedia, Kayak, Travelocity, Momondo, RouteHappy, and even google flights are quoting around $1200 roundtrip cost, sometimes as low as $1150. But the ITA Matrix website shows me several options, the lowest is $916 roundtrip. You can see there are several flights in the $900 range. For the return trip there is only one option to get the low price. Selecting the flights this is what I get: I'm not sure how to use the fare codes the ITA website provides to purchase this itinerary. These are some of the things I have tried to book the complex multi-carrier flight from ITA: My first method was to try coding into HIPMUNK, using the multi-city option, my departure, connections, airlines flights number and dates. Following this method: And the results page: Here's what my code into HIPMUNK looks like: ORD::LH9151 FRA LH756 for the first journey and BOM::LX155 ZRH SN5104 BRU SN8803 for the return trip. Don't think I'm making any mistakes in coding it, but there are two adjustments I also made which failed: I used the dates of the first leg of the flight then tried using the other dates as well. So for example Aug 9th and Aug 10th. I used the codes for the operating carriers and when it didn't work, the marketing carrier leaving the flight number unchanged. This always returned no results. Breaking up the itinerary to just the oneway from ORD to BOM worked but gave me a price of $624. For some reason the second return trip was creating problems. I tried breaking he return trip down into different segments but no luck. Anyone knows why the return trip is creating difficulties? Coding issues/ hipmunk doesn't have such a large database? Then I tried method 2: Calling up the airlines United was able to find all the segments, even price it correctly sometimes (sometimes not) and gave me a confirmation number. I was to call them in 12hrs to check if they were able to procure the seats but when I did call they were not able to get the seats for the SWISS flight from BOM to ZRH and/or from ZRH to BRU. I've tried this at least 5 times changing small things everytime, but the same result. It seems Lufthansa waits for SWISS to confirm the seats but SWISS doesn't respond in time and I'm not able to book. I tried calling Lufthansa but they were not even able to find the segments and instead told me to look at booking online where I will be able to find it cheaper. Any insights into the methods that failed or suggestions on how to book this itinerary at the $900 price will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

Let $A$ be a square matrix. The determinant of $A$ can be defined as $$\sum_{b\in S_n}a_{1b_1}a_{2b_2}...a_{nb_n}$$ Not breaking this down further, apart from the fact that the first term of this sum is always the product of the terms in the main diagonal of $A$. We take one term from each row and choose the column according to the permutation $b = {1,2,3,...,n}$. If two rows are now interchanged, so does the permutation change its parity from even to odd. Therefore the sign of the determinant is changed as well. For example, if we swap rows 2 and 3 in a $3 \times 3 $ matrix the first terms $$a_{11}a_{22}a_{33}$$ $$a_{11}a_{32}a_{23}$$ which can be rewritten as $$a_{11}a_{23}a_{32}$$ Which corresponds to an odd permutation. I think my idea is correct, but I'm not sure if its appropriately explained here - thus the example. | I was wondering if someone could help me clarify something regarding the effect of swapping two rows on the sign of the determinant. I know that if $A$ is an $n\times n$ matrix and $B$ is an $n\times n$ matrix obtained from $A$ by swapping two rows, then $$\det(B)=-\det(A)$$ but I don't know how to prove this. I have been looking for proofs at internet, and read in both in textbooks and lectures notes that are available that this result is very hard to prove and most approaches rely on induction and so was wondering if there is something wrong with using that $\det(AB)=\det(A)\det(B)$ and then writing $B=EA$ where $E$ is an elementary matrix swapping two rows and using this result to get $\det(B)=\det(E)\det(A)=-\det(A)$ (since showing that $\det(E)=-1$ in this case is not that hard). |
When the last few MCU movies came out, there had been corresponding sequences and tie-ins with the ongoing Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. series. Winter Soldier's introduction of Hydra-within-SHIELD fell right into lockstep with the series' traitor plotline. Thor 2 lead into the series' team having to do cleanup in the UK. Age of Ultron revealed that Coulson's super-secret plan was actually readying a SHIELD Helicarrier for Fury's use. Now, I admit that I sped through the last six episodes of S.H.I.E.L.D. in preparation for watching Civil War this weekend, so maybe I missed something. However, I didn't notice any particular lead up to anything revealed in the movie this time around. Did I miss anything? Yes, I caught the cute little reference of HIVE/Ward saying "Only billionaires can have super suits and only the government can make super soldiers, which will lead to a war of its own", but was that it?

(which from what I've seen seems more relevant, with coming in phase 3). I've gained what I can from .

In the book "Elements of Statistical Learning", early on the author is discussing linear regression, and naturally discusses the residual sum of squares (RSS) based on the parameter space $\boldsymbol{\beta}$. In the general formulation, $\text{RSS}(\beta) = (\boldsymbol{y} - \boldsymbol{X}\beta)^T(\boldsymbol{y} - \boldsymbol{X}\beta)$ where $\boldsymbol{X}$ is an $N \times p$ matrix and $\beta$ is a $p \times K$ matrix. The author then says to minimize RSS, you differentiate with respect to $\beta$ and get $\boldsymbol{X}^T(\boldsymbol{y} - \boldsymbol{X}\beta) = 0$ My question is, what are the mechanics of differentiating with respect to the matrix $\beta$? I have a B.S. in physics, so I have a reasonably sophisticated math background, but I never covered this in my undergraduate education. I tried looking a bit into "Matrix calculus", but it wasn't much help. Is that the correct term? If this is the language used in the remainder of the textbook, what are some good resources somewhat familiar with vector calc and linear algebra to learn "matrix calc"? | I am reading Elements of Statistical Learning, and they derive the equation for linear regression using differentiation on a function which takes a matrix as input. This is making my head spin a bit and I am looking for some resources to practice this type of differentiation, and become more comfortable with it. This is the problem. Let $X \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times p}$, $b \in \mathbb{R}^{p \times k}$, and $y \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times k}$. Define $RSS(X, y) = \operatorname{tr}[(Xb - y)^t(Xb - y)]$. I want to differentiate $RSS$ with respect to $b$ and set the derivative to zero since I want to minimize the function, $RSS$. The book claims this is $X^t(Xb - y) = 0$, which gets us, $b = (X^tX)^{-1}Xy$ if $(X^tX)$ is singular. It does not show how it applied the derivatives (which is expected since thats not what this book is about). I can sort of reason that we have some sort of product rule happening. It seems likely that $d/db(\operatorname{tr}(A)) = \operatorname{tr}(d/db(A))$. But right now I am just writing down symbols that somehow represent some ideas in my head. In my Principles of Mathematical Analysis book (by Rudin) he covers when the input is a vector, and the output can be a vector. However, this seems to be input is a matrix, and the output in some of the subproblems is a matrix. Any recommendations for books I can look at? |

I have some suggestions on down-voting. If a person has performed a downvote on particular post without telling the reason behind it, then how can the OP knows why his/her post is downvoted? Of course the SO shows this Ajax reminder: Please consider adding a comment if you think this post can be improved I think this reminder is being neglected in most of the cases. My Suggestion: In this case there is a need to make the reason behind downvoting mandatory. OR At least the OP should be able to know the person who downvoted his/her post. so that the OP can ask the particular person to know the reason behind the downvote. It also helps the OP to modify the question as per the reason/suggestion stated.

What if the downvote stays for the question/questions even after improving the post/posts? Then that user is banned for asking a question on SO permanently? My suggestion: The question-ban should be made as temporary for some period of hours or days. Any other suggestions are also welcomed!

Not only does it improve the answer for the OP but it improves my knowledge too. Where the down-vote has been explained I've found it useful & it has improved my answer, or forced me to delete the answer if it was totally wrong. So is there any way we can encourage people to leave a comment? Perhaps they don't lose rep if they explain their down-vote? I must admit though that I haven't always explained my down-vote either so you could call me a hypocrite.

I have observed many times that ants are able to reach the box where sweet items are kept even if the box is kept in secret. How do they identify it?? | I recently had ants find and then swarm to a food container that I put down on a desk. I'm curious as to whether an ant would have needed to get lucky (i.e., discovering the food after crawling up the desk) or ants have the ability to sense food from a distance. I'm skeptical of believing that ants simply scout around until finding food; I'll use this case as an example: My room has had no food or drink in it for weeks, so the area wouldn't be a "hotspot" for ants to be interested in. I put the mostly empty food container down on my clean desk and turned my lamp off to work on the computer. No more than 2 hours later did I turn my light back on to discover a trail of ants swarming to the container I put down. It happened pretty quickly. The desk is high, standing on four thin legs. I find it difficult to believe that an ant would crawl up the desk as often as a 2 hour time frame to scout for food, for the message to be passed to the colony so quickly. I've been curious about this scenario for a long time. So my question: Can ants sense food from a long distance? If so, how does it work? If not, how is the phenomena (ants locating food quickly in unlikely places) explained? |
I have a transparent texture and I can't figure out how to apply that transparency to the object. As you can see, the texture in the bottom right is transparent in places and solid in others.

On the left is the image with the features, on the right is the part of the object where I want it to be. I tried to import the image as a plane, but matching the shape of the plane with the face didn't work, and the lines of the face left shadows on the head, and could be seen as a different object from some angles (although it's the closest I've gotten yet). It looked like this: So , I tried selecting the faces of the head that the features should go over, and create a new material for it. Unfortunately, since the .png is transparent, the result produced was this: (where it's impossible to tell the transparency from a black background default color, and where I wouldn't know where to start to adjust size and position). I also tried UV mapping, but then the whole object became black with the features repeated all over. Is it something I have to go into Nodes for? I'm kind of stuck here. Creating a new material and applying it is simple, but applying a material that is an image is a bit more complex it seems... Ideally, I would reproduce the same technique for the adhesive bandage on its arm (seen on the right of image 1). |
When you level up, you gain a number of Hit Points equal to 1d# (6, 8, 10, or 12) + your Constitution modifier. The lowest Constitution modifier possible is -4 (possible by rolling, and rolling 4 1s). If a PC with a negative Constitution modifier, negative by more than 1, levelled up, and rolled a 1 on the levelling up HP dice, would they lose HP? And, would it be possible to die by this HP loss? For example, a Wizard with a 3 in Constitution, would have 2 HP at first level. At second level, we'll say hey rolled a 1 on his Hit Points die. This would mean he gained -3 Hit Points.

For any positive integer $n$, how many polynomials are there of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{Z}_2$? How many distinct polynomials function from $\mathbb{Z}_2$ to $\mathbb{Z}_2$? Attempt: first part is clear to me since there are $2$ choices for each coefficient and there are $n$ coefficient so there are $2^n$ such polynomials. I am having problems understanding the second part where I need to find distinct polynomial functions. If I assume $p(x)$ and $p'(x)$ are two equal polynomial functions over $\mathbb{Z}_2$ such that $p(x)=a_nx^n+\cdots+a_0$ and $p'(x)=a'_nx^n+\cdots+a'_0$, then $p'(x)=p(x)$ for $x=0,1$. So $a'_0=a_0$. And since the degree of these polynomials are $n$ then $a_n=a'_n=1$. So to find distinct polynomial functions we have to consider when $p(x)$ cannot be equal to $p'(x)$ for every value of $x\in\{0,1\}$. From here I cannot proceed. I was looking for solutions. Everywhere I see that they have started the argument with the fact that there are only $4$ such polynomials and then they give the examples of such polynomials. I need help to understand this problem. Thank you | From a bank of past master's exams I am going through: Let $F$ be a finite field. Show that any function from $F$ to $F$ is a polynomial function. I know that finite fields are fields of $p$ elements for $p$ prime [EDIT: It's actually $p^n$ for $p$ prime; see comment below]. Since I have $p$ choices for the $p$ elements to map to, then I have $p^p$ distinct functions. I think every function can be written in the form $f(x) = a_{p-1}x^{p-1} + \dots + a_0x^0$. For then given the values $f(0), f(1), \ldots f(p-1)$, I can solve for the coefficents by the linear system of equations $$ a_0 + \sum_{i=1}^{p-1} n^i a_i = f(n).$$ This then gives me a $p-1 \times p-1$ square matrix over the field $\mathbb{F}_p$: $$\left( \begin{array}{ccccc} 1& 0 & 0 & \ldots & 0 \\ 1& 1 & 1 & \dots & 1 \\ 1& 2 & 4 & \dots & 2^{p-1} \\ \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & & \vdots \\ 1 & p-1 & (p-1)^2 & \dots & (p-1)^{p-1} \end{array} \right) \left( \begin{array}{c} a_0 \\ a_1 \\ a_2 \\ \vdots \\ a_{p-1} \end{array}\right) = \left( \begin{array}{c} f(0) \\ f(1) \\ f(2) \\ \vdots \\ f(p-1) \end{array} \right)$$ If I can show this matrix is invertible, then I can always find the $a_i$. But I am a bit stumped on how to show this (partially because I don't think I've ever done linear algebra in a vector space over a finite field). It does not seem easy to show linear independence, or nonzero determinant, or full row rank. Alternatively (I just thought of this), can I show this is true by arguing that the map between the two sets (the set of polynomials of degree $p-1$; and the set of functions $F \to F$) is injective, and that it must be a bijection because the sets have the same cardinality $p^p$? |
my understanding of a singularity is that it is a 'point' in the universe with an infinite energy density. I have also read on the internet that a singularity is one-dimensional. This is a concept that troubles me. using my (very limited) knowledge of what dimensions are and how they work, I have made the following assumptions: we live in a three-dimensional world with length, width and height (excluding time which I am confused about and am unsure as to whether it is a dimension or not) so a two-dimensional object would have only length and width (sort of like a flat shape in an area question in a textbook). so a one-dimensional object would only have length and would be a sort of 'line'. But a 'line' is not a 'point', therefore in order to have a pointlike singularity it would need to be zero-dimensional. another aspect of the one-dimensional 'linear' singularity that I find difficult to understand is that for the finite amount of energy in the universe to be infinitely dense, it cannot be spread out along one or more dimensions, but rather it must be contained in zero dimensions. Hence the energy is 'X' joules per zero metres so the density is undefined. are singularities one or zero-dimensional and why/how? if the above reasoning is wrong, why is it wrong? | General relativity is expressed in terms of differential geometry, which allows you to do interesting things with the coordinates: multiple coordinates may refer to a single point, eg. the has whole lines at the top and the bottom that correspond to the North and South poles, respectively; or a single coordinate may refer to multiple points, for example by using inverse geometry the origin refers to all the points infinitely far away. So, is the singularity just a single point in the curved spacetime, or can it be a more extended object, described by a single coordinate? |

Should I upgrade my camera or get a better lens? since I'm interested in "night sky photography" this level of noise is really bothering.

I am using a first difference estimator for my panel data. The panel has people whom I observe over time. I want to include a 'time fixed effect'. I argue that this should be possible, as long as I interpret it slightly differently than a standard time dummy. So basically: y_it-y_it-1=gamma_(t,t-1)+beta*(x_it-x_it-1)+(e_it-e_it-1) Where i is a subscript for the crosssectional element and t is the subscript for the time element. gamma_(t,t-1) would therefore be a time fixed effect (i.e. dummy variable indicating time) A referee claims it is non-sensical. While disagreeing with a referee is a bad idea, I am curious whether he is right or not. Can someone explain his point ? | Is it the same to estimate the time fixed effect by the within estimator and by simply adding time dummies in my regression equation?

My web designer recently told me that I need to be careful not to Google for my business' website, click on its search result link, then quickly close the page (or click back) too many times. He says "Google knows" that I didn't stay on the page, and could penalize my site for having a high bounce rate if it happens too much. Apparently, it could look like the behavior of a visitor who was not interested in what they found (hence the supposed detrimental effect on the site's search ranking). This sounds hard to believe to me because I would not have thought any information is transmitted which tells Google (or anyone, for that matter) whether or not a website is still open in a browser (in my case Firefox v25.0). Could there possibly be any truth to this? If not, why might he have come to this conclusion? Is there some click-tracking or similar technology employed by search engines which does something similar? Looking forward to hearing everyone's thoughts. | Does Google consider bounce rate or something similar in ranking sites? Background: here at Stack Exchange we noticed that the latest Google algorithm changes resulted in about a 20% dip in traffic to (and a much smaller dip in traffic to ). Stack Overflow traffic was not affected. There was an which hypothesized that bounce rate might be a ranking signal in Google's latest Panda update. According to Google Analytics, these are our bounce rates over the last month: Site Bounce Rate Avg Time on Site ------------- ----------- ---------------- SuperUser 84.67% 01:16 ServerFault 83.76% 00:53 Stack Overflow 63.63% 04:12 Now, technically, Google has no way to know the bounce rate. If you go to Google, search for something, and click on the first result, Google can't tell the difference between: a user who turns off their computer a user who goes to a completely different web site a user who spends hours clicking around on the website they landed on What Google does know is how long it takes the user to come back to Google and do another search. According to the book (page 47), Google distinguishes between what they call "short clicks" and "long clicks": A short click is a search where the user quickly comes back to Google and does another search. Google interprets this as a signal that the first search results were unsatisfactory. A long click is a search where the user doesn't search again for a long time. The book says that Google uses this information internally, to judge the quality of their own algorithms. It also said that short click data in which someone retypes a slight variation of the search is used to fuel the "Did you mean...?" spell checking algorithm. So, my hypothesis is that Google has recently decided to use long click rates as a signal of a high quality site. Does anyone have any evidence of this? Have you seen any high-bounce-rate sites which lost traffic (or vice-versa)? |

Thanks for any feedback | In Windows there’re perhaps only a couple of important folders (by important I mean important in my logical picture of the Windows file system) in the installation drive (in my case C:\). Namely Program Files and Windows. I simply stay away from Windows folder and the “add remove program files” is good enough to handle the program files folder of Windows.
