In a multiplayer game, how can you be sure that the IP from a packet is the real IP? By spoofing I could send, for example, a "suicide packet" which tells the server that the owner of said packet wants to destroy its avatar when in reality I faked it. Do games just give up on this aspect? | I'm thinking about clients spoofing IP addresses, tricking other clients that they are the server; that sort of stuff. (I don't know much about this, so if this is completely wrong, please correct me.) What should I do to prevent this? Because it is a real-time game, if I were to use encryption, I would use something fast and secure like RC4. Should I encrypt packet data with a key, that the server gives to the client? If it makes any difference, I'm using UDP. |
In Harry Potter, it is said that Lord Voldemort is one of the most powerful wizards of all time. But I am not very convinced about why that is the case. I guess, a more general question is, how can you tell if a wizard is powerful? In terms of spells, to be specific, the death curse, if two wizards speak this curse to one another at the same time with the equally good wands, then who will die? Does the effect of the spell depend on the way a wizard speaks it? If so, it what way exactly? Can an average wizard cast death spell to Lord Voldemort and kill him? In terms of wands which is sort of the guns of our world, how do we know if one wand is more powerful than the other. In the movies, I did not see why the elder wand was that special except that it looks better. | In the world of Harry Potter, various wizards are described as being "powerful". Harry had been a year old the night that Voldemort – the most powerful Dark wizard for a century, a wizard who had been gaining power steadily for eleven years – arrived at his house and killed his father and mother.

Find isomorphism between $F_2[x]/(x^3+x+1)$ and $F_2[x]/(x^3+x^2+1)$. It is easy to construct an injection $f$ satisfying $f(a+b)=f(a)+f(b)$ and $f(ab)=f(a)f(b)$. However, I am stuck how to construct such a mapping that is bijective. Thank you for help! | Suppose $K$ is a finite field, $K = \mathbb F_{p^s}$. If we take an irreducible polynomial $f$ of degree $d$ over $K$, then the splitting field $L$ of $f$ is $K(\alpha)$ where $f$ is the minimal polynomial of $\alpha$. But then $L = \mathbb F_{p^{sd}} $. Since $\mathbb F_{p^{sd}}$ is unique, we see that this is the splitting field of every irreducible polynomial of degree $d$ over $K$. Take $K = \mathbb F_2$ and let $P(X) = X^3 + X + 1$, $Q(X) = X^3 + X^2 + 1$. Let $L$ be the splitting field of $P$ and $L'$ be the splitting field of $Q$. The above tells us that $L$ and $L'$ are isomorphic. I would like to construct an explicit isomorphism between $L$ and $L'$. I know that $L \cong \mathbb F_2[X] /(X^3 +X + 1)$ and $L' \cong \mathbb F_2[X] / (X^3 + X^2 + 1)$. Intuitively, I want to find an isomorphism $\phi : \mathbb F_2[X] \to \mathbb F_2[X]$ such that $\phi((X^3 + X + 1)) = (X^3 + X^2 + 1)$. A little playing around gives me $\phi(X) = X+1$. It now feels like I'm falling at the last hurdle: how do I finish the construction of an isomorphism between $L$ and $L'$? I don't think $\phi$ makes sense as a map from $L$ to $L'$, yet it seems the map I want. |
I'm reading Shreve's Stochastic Calculus for Finance. On page 35, he gives this example: Example 1.6.4. Recall Example 1.2.4 in which $\Omega = [0, 1]$, $\mathbb{P}$ is the uniform (i.e., Lebesgue) measure, and $$\widetilde{\mathbb{P}}[a, b] = \int_a^b 2\omega d\omega = b^2 - a^2, > 0 \leq a \leq b \leq 1.$$ We may use the fact that $\mathbb{P}(d\omega)=d\omega$ to rewrite the above as $$\widetilde{\mathbb{P}}[a, b] = \int_{[a, b]} 2\omega d\mathbb{P}(\omega)$$ I'm confused by "$\mathbb{P}(d\omega)=d\omega$". In my mind, $\mathbb{P}$ is a measure, $d\omega$ outside of an integral is meaningless, and $\mathbb{P}(d\omega)$ symbolically doesn't have any meaning. How do I interpret $\mathbb{P}(d\omega)$? How do I make sense of Shreve's substitution? Edit: What set is the equivalence relation $=$ in "$\mathbb{P}(d\omega)=d\omega$" defined over? | I am currently reading S. Shreve's book Stochastic Calculus II, and I have a question regarding Example 1.6.4 (p.35-36) which describes a change of measure, but I am puzzled by the notation. $\Omega=[0,1], \mathbb{P}$ is the uniform measure and $$\tilde{\mathbb{P}}[a,b]=\int_a^b 2\omega d\omega=b^2-a^2$$ for $0\le a\le b \le 1$. The first step is: We may use the fact that $\mathbb{P}(d\omega) = d\omega$ to rewrite the equation above as $$\tilde{\mathbb{P}}[a,b]=\int_a^b 2\omega d\mathbb{P}(\omega).$$ I have several questions regarding this statement: $\mathbb{P}$ is a probability measure from $\mathcal{F}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, I cannot find a clear definition in the book what $\mathbb{P}(d\omega)$ actually means. Is $d\omega$ actually an event? Why does this $\mathbb{P}(d\omega) = d\omega$ help in rewriting, shouldn't we need $d\mathbb{P}(\omega) = d\omega$? What does $\mathbb{P}(d\omega) = d\omega$ even mean, and why is this true? |

We recently moved our 2016 sql server mirror into Azure, but it's on an underpowered machine. Our main database server has 16 physical cores with hyper threading and 2 numa nodes. We have set the maxdop to 16 for this machine. Edit: I had previously set it to 8 and saw the same issues. The mirror host has a much weaker cpu, so we had to set the maxdop to 4. When we are running an intense query on the principle database, we sometimes get an error: Unexpected job failure.: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): The query processor could not start the necessary thread resources for parallel query execution. I am wondering if could be due to the underpowered mirror server running out of resources while it is trying to commit all the transactions that are being fed across to it from the principal server. I'm not a DBA, and we currently do not have one on staff (so I guess I am the DBA), so a lot of these settings and errors are foreign to me.

If the power series $\sum_{n\in\mathbb N}a_n\frac{x^n}{n!}$ converges for all real $x$, then the answer is trivially yes. If the power series above has radius of convergence $3r>0$, let $\psi_r\in C^\infty(\mathbb R)$ be supported in $[-r,r]$ with $\psi_r(0)=1$ and $\psi_r^{(n)}(0)=0$ for $n>0$, and observe that $$ h(x):=\begin{cases} \psi_r(x)\sum_{n\in\mathbb N}a_n\frac{x^n}{n!}&\text{if }x\in [-2r,2r],\\ 0&\text{otherwise} \end{cases} $$ does the job. (For the sake of completeness, I construct such a $\psi_r$ below.) The case where $\sum_{n\in\mathbb N}a_n\frac{x^n}{n!}$ converges only at $x=0$ (e.g., if $\{a_n\}$ is something awful like $\{(n!)^2\}$) is the one I'm stuck on. Here we construct the function $\psi_r$ used in the second case above: Define $$\begin{align} f(x)&=\begin{cases} e^{\frac {-1}{x}}&\text{if }x>0,\\ 0&\text{if }x\leq 0 \end{cases}\\ g(x)&=\frac {f(x)}{f(x)+f(1-x)} \end{align}$$ as in . Then $$\begin{align} \psi(x)&:=1-g(x)-g(-x) \end{align}$$ is a $C^\infty$ function with support $[-1,1]$ satisfying $\psi(0)=1$ and $\psi^{(n)}(0)=0$ for all $n>0$ (this much is clear from the list of properties of $g$ given in the linked article). Take $\psi_r(x)=\psi(x/r)$, and observe that $\psi_r$ does the job. | Do you have some reference to a proof of the so-called Borel theorem, i.e. every power series is the Taylor series of some $C^{\infty}$ function? |

Searching for clear explanations of why FTL equals time travel I found this Go at the bottom, when he draws the blue lines. He says that those are the lines of costant time and they are parallel to the space line of the relativistic ship. This imply that the time line is perpendicular to the space line. But before he had said that the time line of the ship was the one named "space ship time" that is skewed towards the space line. So it seems to me that there are two time lines for the ship: the "space ship time" line and the one perpendicular to the space line that isn't drawn. To say it in other words: if we have a relativistic ship its space and time lines should both be skewed towards the light line, right ? Because light speed is costant for any observer. This means that the light line should always be at the same distance from both the time and the space line. But when the blue lines are drawn the time line is said to be perpendicular to the space line. This means that the light line would be closer to the space line that the time line. Thus meaning that light would be faster for that observer. The problem is that if we consider the "space ship time" line as the correct time line there is no time travel. EDIT: I think I'm starting to understand. In other examples I found online they suggest to rotate the graph, so that the time line of the space ship is pointing towards high. That makes evident the FTL communications between Earth and AC are distorted from the point of view of the ship, with the ones sent from AC to Earth arriving before they are sent. If the ship can sent messages at near istantaneous speed those messages would be a line perpendicular to their time line, but these lines woldn't be perpendicular to the time lines of Earth and AC, arriving after or even before they are sent. So to avoid time paradoxes you have time lines of different reference frames to always make an acute angle. If they were to make a dull angle (by going FTL) that would mean they are going in the past of each other. In fact you could rotate the graph to make on of them your y axis and see that the other is going down (towards the past). Is this correct ? EDIT 2: Graph I made In the horrbible graph above we have Earth and AC time lines (black), the realtivistic ship time line (blue) and near istantaneous FTL communications (purple). The first message is sent from AC to Earth, from their point of view is istantaneous, but from the point of view of the ship is going back in the past. When they receive it they sent a message back to AC (purple line perpendicular to blue line). Again this message is istantaneous from their POV, but from AC POV it arrives before it is sent. So AC receive an answer to a message that they haven't sent yet. What did I do wrong ? | Is this statement true? You can not travel back in time. If I travel fast enough the clock will start to go backwards, but that does not mean I am traveling back in time. It would only mean that the time reference is producing a negative count. |

I was watching a Mathologer video on a proof that $\pi$ is irrational that used continued fractions. At one point in the video, the person presenting the proof challenged the viewers to prove that $\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-...}}}=1$. I attempted this the following way: Let $x=3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-...}}$.We can then see that $x=3-\frac{2}{x}$. We can then solve for $x$, arriving at $x^2-3x+2=0$, which we can solve with the quadratic formula, yielding $x=1$ or $x=2$. Now, $1-3+2=0$; $3-\frac{2}{1}=1$, and the coefficient of $x^2\neq0$, so $1$ should be a valid solution for $x$, however in that case $\frac{2}{x}=2\neq1$ (which we were trying to prove), which is a bizarre result, seeing as a continuing fraction should only have one result (or so I think...). I'm still only a high school student, and my formal math education is around Algebra I and Geometry level, so it's possible I may be missing something obvious. Clearly, my reasoning is flawed. Can someone please help me see where I'm wrong here, and what I missed? Is my approach completely wrong? | I am preparing to teach an enrichment session to some 16 year olds, about Continued Fractions. I am confused about the following paradox. 1=2 via Continued Fractions This is true of course that $1=\frac{2}{3-1}.$ Now, let's substitute this very expression for $1$ in the denominator: $$1=\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-1}}.$$ We can do that one more time: $$1=\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-1}}}.$$ And one more time to make sure there is no misunderstanding of the construction, $$1=\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-1}}}}.$$ At this point I am assuming that further steps could be performed by any reader who got this far. To indicate that possibility I'll use the ellipsis: $$1=\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\ldots}}}}.$$ Well, we also know that $2=\frac{2}{3-2}.$ With this as a starting point, we follow in the footsteps of the previous example. Replacing $2$ in the denominator with that expression gives $$2=\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-2}}.$$ To continue as before: $$2=\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-2}}}}.$$ And finally, $$2=\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\frac{2}{3-\ldots}}}}.$$ But this is exatly the same continued fraction. By necessity we conclude that $1=2.$ — by 24.0.94.225 at 20110927 via What is the hole in the argument?

I am a student of linguistics, not a mathematician. I am trying to account for some linguistic expressions with the set theoretical terminology and hence I am trying to learn the basic membership rules for sets. This is the problem with which I am struggling - If $x$ is a member of set $y$, where $y$ is a set of cats $x$ is necessarily a cat. $\therefore$ An expression like $a$ $cat$ will refer to a noun which is a member of set $C$ i.e. set of all cats. Now what about an expression like $a$ $black$ $cat$? Obviously we know that black is an adjective here, but what is it's membership? If we say set $C$ has a subset $B$ which includes all the black cats, it will violate the first condition because we have defined set $C$ as a set of cats, but set $B$ is not a cat. How to account for $black$ in this model? | I had a task where I had to figure if the argument was true or not. $A=\{ n ∈ ℤ \mid n^2 < 5 \}, \quad B=\{ 7, 8, \{2\}, \{2, 7, 8\}, \{\{7\}\} \}$ The first one was $\{-1, 2\} ∈ A$ and the answer to this was not true since the set is not an integer. The second one was $\{-1, 2\} ⊂ A$ and the answer to this was true since -1 and 2 are elements of $A$. I just can't seem to understand the difference between ∈ and ⊂ in this task and why the first argument was not true. Also it confuses me that the answer to the first one was that not true because the set is not an integer but aren't -1 and 2 integers? There is other parts of this task that also add more confusion: {2, 7, 8} ∈ B Answer: True since {2, 7, 8} is an element of set B {2, 7, 8} ⊂ B Answer: Not true, for example 2 is not an element in set B |

I am fairly new to java, and I cannot figure out for the life of me why this piece of code is not working, I am trying to see if a word is an adverb, and hence if it ends in "ly" or not (they will always be lowercase).

I don't like white wine. Me neither. We're talking about subjects here, so naturally the pronoun should be "I". The use of "me" would only make sense to me if "neither" was a postposition.

Is this sentence a shortened version of something that explains the weird grammar? | I've heard that "me neither" is incorrect. Instead one should say "neither do I." People definitely say "me neither" conversationally, but is it technically incorrect? |
How to build a regression model with a continuous response variable bounded from 0 to 1? I think it is not logistic regression, where I am not predicting a binary response variable, Right? Sorry for duplication if any, I tried to search but not find. (I feel this question must be asked many times.) | I am thinking of building a model predicting a ratio $a/b$, where $a \le b$ and $a > 0$ and $b > 0$. So, the ratio would be between $0$ and $1$. I could use linear regression, although it doesn't naturally limit to 0..1. I have no reason to believe the relationship is linear, but of course it is often used anyway, as a simple first model. I could use a logistic regression, although it is normally used to predict the probability of a two-state outcome, not to predict a continuous value from the range 0..1. Knowing nothing more, would you use linear regression, logistic regression, or hidden option c? |
I have a list with letters: list1 = [abcdefghijk] I have num = 3 and want to break list1 in parts of 3, i.e: [[abc], [def], [ghi], [jk]] My code is: for i in range(0, len(list1), num): chunks = [list1[i:i+num]] I get wrong output: chunks = ['k'] But I expect: chunks = [[abc],[def],[ghi],[jk]] I have gone through all the available solutions here. But they did not help. How should I fix this? | I have a list of arbitrary length, and I need to split it up into equal size chunks and operate on it. There are some obvious ways to do this, like keeping a counter and two lists, and when the second list fills up, add it to the first list and empty the second list for the next round of data, but this is potentially extremely expensive.

Suppose $X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n$ are i.i.d variables having a two-parameter exponential distribution with common location and scale parameter $\theta$ : $$f_{\theta}(x)=\frac{1}{\theta}e^{-(x-\theta)/\theta}\mathbf1_{x>\theta}\quad,\,\theta>0$$ I am wondering if it is possible to derive a maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of $\theta$. The likelihood function given the sample $x_1,\ldots,x_n$ is $$L(\theta)=\frac{1}{\theta^n}e^{-n(\bar x-\theta)/\theta}\mathbf1_{x_{(1)}>\theta}\quad,\,\theta>0$$ , where $\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum\limits_{i=1}^n x_i$ and $x_{(1)}=\min\limits_{1\le i\le n} x_i$. Since $L(\theta)$ is not differentiable at $\theta=x_{(1)}$, I cannot apply the second-derivative test here. Even if I could say that $L(\theta)$ is increasing and/or decreasing in $\theta$ under the constraint $\theta<x_{(1)}$, I am not sure what choice of $\theta$ maximises $L(\theta)$. Differentiation is not valid as I understand. I think it is safe to assume $x_{(1)}<\bar x$, so the constraint is actually $\theta<x_{(1)}<\bar x$. If MLE is unique, then it is likely to be a function of the sufficient statistic $(\overline X,X_{(1)})$. However I don't see how to derive it in this particular model. Any suggestion would be great. | Let $X_1,X_2,X_3....X_n$ be a random sample from a population having probability density function $$f(x)=\dfrac{1}{\theta} e^\frac{-(x-\theta)}{\theta} ;x\geq\theta$$ where $\theta\in(0,\infty)$. Find the MLE of $\theta$. In this question when i followed normal method of finding MLE(taking log likelihood differentiating with respect to $\theta$)I found $\hat\theta =\bar x$. But like in uniform distribution case we have here parameter dependent on $x$ . Now i am not sure if MLE is $\bar x$ or $x_{(1)}$. |
It seems to me that if everyone is infected so that even a natural death would turn a human into a zombie, why is there concern over non-lethal zombie bites?

I was wondering what are the "creative limits" of LaTeX. I've seen many beautifully typeset documents, books, scientific papers, which are of the highest quality, both aesthetically and in respect to content.

Thank you for your suggestions in advance. | If you were asked to show examples of beautifully typeset documents in TeX & friends, what would you suggest? Preferably documents available online (I'm aware I could go to a bookstore and find many such documents called 'books'). Extra bonus for documents whose LaTeX source is available.

What is required from me in reviewing a post? There is a similar question on I clicked on and see many first time posts. I see I have 2 options: I'm done Not sure. I'm done is grayed out.

So, I guess by voting up is a good way to start - it rewards new posters for good questions and makes them feel welcome - and what happens -- I'm limited to X number of votes a day (up voting and down voting). Currently there are 2.1k posts on Super User which need reviewing and with these limitations I expect it will take some time (although I use Super User, it's applicable to all sites on SE). I don't think writing a comment saying 'well done for a good post' is useful either for future visitors (IMO it also may impact SEO but we won't discuss that here) but it adds 'noise'.

I think that there are some posts that are perfectly acceptable, but that show no demonstrable lack of effort or lack of clarity that might warrant a downvote. I am a firm advocate for voting good quality posts up, I just think that forcing an option of voting or making the reviewer throw their work back into the pool untouched (assuming no edits or flags, etc. are needed) may be detrimental in the long term. |

I am exploring UARTs on the STM32F103RB on a nucleo board. The board is connected via USB to my laptop, and I can send/receive messages using the HAL_UART_Transmit_IT and HAL_UART_Receive_IT functions. What I am actually failing to do, is send a message from UART2 to UART3. I wired as follows: UART2 TX (PA2) => UART3 RX (PB11) UART2 RX (PA3) => UART3 TX (PB10) Then I send a transmit an array of 2 bytes from UART2 to UART3, but the interrupt handler never fires. So I thought to isolate the problem further, and just connect RX to RX and TX to TX, so that the signals to UART2 are "mirrored" to UART3. Wiring as follows: UART2 TX (PA2) => UART3 TX (PB10) UART2 RX (PA3) => UART3 RX (PB11) From the pinout here that I identified the following pins: PA2 and PA3 PB10 and PB11 In that setup, I again activate the callback on UART3, send a message from my laptop to UART2 (and thus 'also' to UART3 if my theory works in practice) and hoped to hit the breakpoint in the HAL_UART_RxCpltCallback. But it doesn't work. The code for completeness: In the main function: // Activate the callback on receive UART3 HAL_UART_Receive_IT(&huart3, receive, 2); __NOP(); while (1) { // Do nothing, all is done via callbacks } (the default setting up of UARTs and GPIO, generated with CubeMX, is left out for readability) The UART receive callback: void HAL_UART_RxCpltCallback(UART_HandleTypeDef *huart) { /* Prevent unused argument(s) compilation warning */ UNUSED(huart); if (huart->Instance == huart3.Instance) { __NOP(); HAL_UART_Receive_IT(&huart3, (uint8_t *)receive, 2); } } I am sending a few bytes using a tool (Hercules). It works fine when I change to huart2. So I am sure the code works as it supposed to. Is it possible to "mirror" UART2 pins to UART3 pins like I did? Or is there something else that comes to mind what I might be doing wrong? Update As already explained in the comments, this is not a duplicate of the linked question (otherwise I wouldn't have asked it, since both are mine...). The problem in the linked question was regarding transmitting from UART2 to UART3, the question now is to mirror receiving pins to drill down to the actual issue at hand. Update 2 Justme was spot on. The problem that I can't mirror the pins is simply because no signal is receive on the PA3 pin. I need to solder a bridge to make that happen, as explained in the user manual: The answer / comment of Justme is most likely the actual problem that solves my issue. | I thought to create a simple test to send and receive a buffer via UART. I succeeded in sending bytes from my PC to the nucleo bord and receiving them in blocking and non-blocking mode. But for some reason I can't succeed to send data from UART3 and receive the bytes on UART2. I have a nucleo-f103rb and have the following pins setup: UART2: tx=PA2;rx=PA3 UART3: tx=PB10;rx=PB11 And then the following code: while (1) { /* USER CODE END WHILE */ /* USER CODE BEGIN 3 */ if (HAL_UART_Transmit(&huart3, send, 2, 1000) == HAL_OK) { if (HAL_UART_Receive(&huart2, receive, 2, 1000) == HAL_OK) { HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(GPIOA, LD2_Pin); } } } All the boiler plate is generated using cube mx. So the UART 2 and 3 are all default, same for the button pins. I connected the transmit pin of uart3 to the receiving pin of uart2 I connected the receive pin of uart3 to the transmitting pin of uart2 (while not used in this trivial example though) What am I missing here? Update As comments and answers suggested, I shouldn't be using the blocking mode approach. So I rewrote it slightly to rely more on interrupts. I attached a callback to the nucleo blue button void HAL_GPIO_EXTI_Callback(uint16_t GPIO_Pin) { if (GPIO_Pin == B1_Pin) { HAL_UART_Transmit_IT(&huart3, (uint8_t *)send, 2); } } And I added a callback for receiving stuff over uart void HAL_UART_RxCpltCallback(UART_HandleTypeDef *huart) { /* Prevent unused argument(s) compilation warning */ UNUSED(huart); /* NOTE : This function should not be modified, when the callback is needed, the HAL_UART_RxCpltCallback can be implemented in the user file */ // Toggle the pin to see some proof that I received something HAL_GPIO_TogglePin(LD2_GPIO_Port, LD2_Pin); // Resubscribe uart2 HAL_UART_Receive_IT(&huart2, (uint8_t *)receive, 2); } In the main function I call the interrupt so that the callback is active. while (HAL_UART_Receive_IT(&huart2, receive, 2) != HAL_OK); __NOP(); while (1) { } Again, when debugging through I do end up in the button released callback, but the callback on the uart receive isn't triggered. When I send stuff from the PC, it does. So it seems that sending stuff via uart3 isn't working. So I guess that must be the wiring. But I really can't see what I am missing here, the pins are clearly defined in the pinout here: . I hope the photo is clear enough, but this is how I connected them. |

I came across the following statement: If $A$ and $B$ commute and $B$ and $C$, do $A$ and $C$ necessarily commute. Prove or disprove. I think it's generally untrue. Consider $A = X$, $B = P_y$ and $C = Ly$, where $X$ is the position operator, $P_y$ is the momentum operator in the $y$ direction and $L_y$ is the angular momentum operator in the $y$ direction. If the statement is generally untrue, by virtue of the counterexample, I have the following question: Don't we implicitly use the argument in the statement to assert for instance, adding an operator to a list of operators to complete a set of commuting observables. For example, assume $H$ is a rotationally invariant scalar operator (Hamiltonian). We know that it commutes with $L_z$. We also know that $L_z$ commutes with $L^2$ and we then assert that $H$ and $L^2$ must also commute as well and we then looking for the simultaneous eigenbasis of th two angular operator momentum operators to get the spherical harmonics. Am I missing out on something here? | I noticed the following: $$[L_{+},L^2]=0,\qquad [L_{+},L_3]\neq 0,\qquad [L^2,L_3]=0.$$ This would suggest, that $L^2,L_+$ have a common system of eigenfunctions, and so do $L^2,L_3$, but $L_+,L_3$ don't.

The eardrum is pretty thin.Therefore it should be very sensitive to movement.So, why don't we hear the air that is constantly moving.My guess is that the force of air pressure is not enough.Maybe I am right, but I want to make sure. | In other words, given a magical room with walls that produce no vibration and transmit zero vibration from the outside, and nothing on the inside except room temperature air, what would be the noise level in dB SPL () from the of the air itself? (Similar to the of electronics being determined by in the conductors.) What is the quietest possible anechoic chamber? What is the noise floor of air? For reference: Sound pressure is defined as the root-mean-square value of the instantaneous pressure, measured in pascal = N/m². SPL is the same number, but expressed in decibels relative to 20 µPa. (I assume that it has a white spectrum, but I could be wrong. Thermal noise in electronics is white, but other types of electronic noise are pink, and blackbody thermal radiation has a bandpass spectrum.) in the context of underwater acoustics. Not sure how this applies to air: Mellen (1952) developed a theoretical model for thermal noise based on classical statistical mechanics, reasoning that the average energy per degree of freedom is kT (where k is Boltzmann’s constant and T is absolute temperature). The number of degrees of freedom is equal to the number of compressional modes, yielding an expression for the plane-wave pressure owing to thermal noise in water. For non-directional hydrophones and typical ocean temperatures, the background level due to thermal noise is given by: NL = −15 + 20 log f (in dB re 1 µPa) where f is given in kHz with f >> 1, and NL is the noise level in a 1 Hz band. Note that thermal noise . There are few measurements in the high-frequency band to suggest deviations from the predicted levels. Citation is R. H.

I run my daily work load in Windows 7 inside a VMware Workstation 11.1 VM, with 3 monitors(VM using all 3 monitors in full screen mode). The graphics performance inside VM is not so fast, and quite oftenly(every hour) Windows 7 force the desktop theme to be "Basic", with a prompt of "Windows has detected that your computer's performance is slow". Actually the Basic theme does not improve VM graphics speed a bit, and I have to manually turn the theme back to Aero (because Basic theme is just ugly). So my question is, is there a way(maybe tweak) to disable the stupid behavior of "force turning off Aero theme"? There has been someone asking rougly , but unfortunately no satisfying answer yet. As magicandre1981 suggests, 10~20 seconds after the switching-to-Basic-theme happens, I capture GPU graph info with Process Explorer v16.01, but still seems no clue. ========== UPDATE 1 ========= Although I cannot find a way to suppress Windows' Aero-turning-off behavior, I managed to find a way to avoid it. Thanks to the first comment pointing out observing GPU info inside the VM, and I managed to increase the dedicated GPU memory to 800MB and the turning-off-Aero symptom does not appear any more, at least for recent two days. The workaround is simple: Simply downgrade virtual machine hardware version from v11 to v10. Now I see GPU info as below: Now my Dedicated GPU Memory is 851968K, and the "current" value goes from 110MB(initial boot up) to near 250MB(run for two days). Although VMware Workstatoin 11.1 provides a setting to increase Graphics memory to 2GB (), I found it no help. It just increase the so called "System GPU Memory", and as you can see, my original setting for the VM was 1GB, and procexp reports only 64MB consumed. So it would be stupid to further increase it to 2GB. So, I'm afraid VMware Workstatoin 11.1.0 has done a lame job regarding its virtual graphics hardware, maybe a very subtle problem. Note: No manual tuning of .vmx content involved. | Every time I attend a Webex meeting, after only a few minutes in, Windows determines that my performance is too low and disables Aero.

I'm less concerned about how Windows determines whether I have enough resources and more concerned about how to stop Windows from doing that. If I determine that my machine doesn't have enough resources, I will disable Aero. Is there a way to prevent Windows from disabling Aero based on available resources? I know that Aero gets disabled when an Aero-incompatible program runs, but that's not the issue in this case. I've checked Power Options, but none of those settings apply. Thanks. Update Joe Internet makes a good point about GPU resources. I have 512MB of dedicated video memory, which is well beyond the . |
This is my opening a new question after having one of my questions marked as a duplicate (). If you came from my previous question, after reading everything at this link: :my question is still unanswered. I don't need a command line script, I think. The chosen answer at that link isn't suited for my problem, nor did I find anything pertaining to my problem in the other answers.

This is Ahlfors q. 1, p. 227. Prove that in any region the family of analytic functions with positive real part is normal. Under what added condition is it locally bounded? Hint: Consider $e^{-f}$. Well I proved that $e^{-f}$ is normal, but I don't know what to do next, moreover If I am right normality implies locally boundeness in the analytic case,I'm trying to figure out why asked that question... | I'm having difficulty with the following exercise in Ahlfors' text, on page 227. Prove that in any region $\Omega$ the family of analytic functions with positive real part is normal. Under what added condition is it locally bounded? Hint: Consider the functions $e^{-f}$. Here is what I've tried: I will start with a remark: Apparently, Ahlfors wants us to show that the family is "normal in the classical sense". That is, every sequence of functions in the family has a subsequence which converges uniformly on compact subsets or tends uniformly to $\infty$ on compact subsets. In order to see why this is the right definition, consider the sequence $f_n(z)=n$. It is contained in the family but has no appropriate subsequence (in the sense of definition 2 in the text with $S=\mathbb C$). Now, to the attempt itself: Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb C$ be a fixed region, and consider the family $$\mathfrak F=\{f: \Omega \to \mathbb C | f \text{ is analytic and } \Re(f) >0 \}. $$ We would like to show that $\mathfrak F$ is normal in the classical sense. Following the hint, we examine the family $$ \mathfrak G=\{e^{-f}:f \in \mathfrak F \}.$$ $\mathfrak G$ is locally bounded (since $|e^{-f}|=e^{- \Re (f)}<1$ for every $f \in \mathfrak F$), thus it is normal with respect to $\mathbb C$ (theorem 15), and obviously, it is normal in the classical sense as well. Let $\{ f_n \}$ be a sequence in $\mathfrak F$, and consider the sequence $\{ g_n \}=\{e^{-f_n} \}$ in $\mathfrak G$. According to normality it has a convergent subsequence $\{ g_{n_k} \}=\{e^{-f_{n_k}} \}$ which converges uniformly on compact subsets of $\Omega$ to some function $g$ (which is analytic by Weierstrass' theorem). Since each $\{ g_{n_k} \}$ is nonvanishing, the limit function $g$ is either identically zero, or non vanishing as well (Hurwitz's theorem). In the former case it is easy to show that the subsequence $\{ f_{n_k} \}$, obtained by the same indices, tends to $\infty$ uniformly on compact sets. Hence, we will assume from now that $g(z) \neq 0$ for all $z \in \Omega$. Up until now, I was trying to show that the subsequence $\{ f_{n_k} \}$ works in all cases, but sadly, this is not the case. Consider the sequence $f_n(z) \equiv 1+2 \pi i (-1)^n \in \mathfrak F$. In that case $g_n(z)=e^{-1}$, and an admissible subsequence is $g_{n_k}=g_k=e^{-1}$. However, $f_{n_k}=1+2 \pi i (-1)^k$ diverges everywhere. Can anyone please help me finish this proof? Or maybe give me some hints? Thanks! |

If you cast Polymorph on yourself to turn into a creature with low intelligence, can you/it continue to concentrate and thus remain in the polymorphed state for the duration of the spell? Or would the spell fail almost instantly because the new creature wouldn't be able to concentrate? The question arose from one of our players wanting to cast Polymorph on himself to turn himself into a Black Pudding (MM p.241). We all looked into the distance pensively. The spell says it can transform to be a beast, so the "Black Pudding" would be out of the question, but some beasts have an Intelligence of 1, like the Black Pudding, for instance: a Lizard. This spell transforms a creature that you can see within range into a new form. [...] The transformation lasts for the duration, or until the target drops to 0 hit points or dies. The new form can be any beast whose challenge rating is equal to or less than the target’s (or the target’s level, if it doesn't have a challenge rating). The target’s game statistics, including mental ability scores, are replaced by the statistics o f the chosen beast. It retains its alignment and personality. [...] The creature is limited in the actions it can perform by the nature of its new form, and it can’t speak, cast spells, or take any other action that requires hands or speech. (PHB p.266) | The level 4 spell Polymorph requires concentration to maintain. The subject retains their personality and alignment, but they have the mental statistics of the new form, which must be a beast and cannot speak or cast spells. If a caster targets themselves with this spell, can they concentrate to maintain it, or does this depend on the mental statistics of the beast form they choose? This situation certainly occurs in practice, since Wizards reaching level 10 in the School of Transmutation gain the Shapechanger feature. This allows them to cast Polymorph, but only upon themselves and only to change into a beast of CR 1 or lower. Beasts with CR 1 or less range in Intelligence from the Giant Eagle (Int 8) to the Frog (Int 1). |
I've been working through Chapter 2 questions and have thought about Exercise 2.18 for a while, but couldn't come up with an answer. Is there a nonempty perfect set in R which contains no rational number? I had a look but I think this is wrong because obviously the Cantor set is not a subset of the rationals * (See below). Another thing that the above "solution" states is that the Cantor set only has endpoints but this is not true, e.g. 1/4 is a member of the Cantor set but is not an endpoint (See ). Other solutions to this question based on a quick google search also give the same - seemingly incorrect - answer. I have thought about sets like {x: Only 4 and 7 are in the decimal expansion of x, and the decimal expansion of x is non-repeating}, but this set doesn't work because 4/9 is a limit point of this set but is not a member of this set and so it is not a perfect set. Other ideas I have come up with include starting with the irrational numbers in [0,1] and taking away lots of irrational numbers systematically, but I couldn't make this work. The denseness of Q has something to do with it but I can't figure it out... Any ideas? *I say "obviously" but I should really explain myself here. The Cantor set is a perfect set, and every perfect set is uncountable, but any subset of rationals is countable. | Give an example of a perfect set in $\mathbb R^n$ that does not contain any of the rationals.

As in the header, I remember very little about this book or series Some guy who is a key leader, either Earth Government or a corporation or a power bloc. There was a space trading element but I really can't remember anything about that. I don't think this person was the main character. The key point I remember is, from the moment he wakes up, there's a little device or implant at one of his ears. All day long he gets updated on stock market and political info and military dispersals. A continuous low murmur. | I read it as a paperback book somewhere in the mid-90s, I think. The protagonist lived in an apartment building. He's out on the balcony when a birdlike (but humanoid) alien swooped down and attacked him. The presence of the aliens was commonly known and was a known danger. He kills it with his watering can and is rewarded by either the aliens or the humans for it with money. Other than that, all I remember was that the chapters were started with an internet-like news report which I think chronicled things getting worse and more violent. One of the updates involved the bombing of a bridge with the casualties raised by having two slow-moving trucks moving side by side obstructing traffic and ensuring a full bridge. The internet system was pretty ubiquitous as I recall. I think that he looked up his watering can shortly after the incident with the aliens, but decided to keep this one, even if it leaks a bit. I want to say that it was by Piers Anthony, but none of the book titles look familiar. I think the cover I had showed the man being attacked by the bird-man, which looked kind of like the illustrations on the cover of The Stand. |

. Assuming that two wizards cast on the same chest and then go in different directions could they use this chest to exchange items over vast distances? To clarify a bit. 1- Wizard A and Wizard B cast Leomund's secret chest on the same chest. Wizard A leaves to venture into a dungeon while Wizard B stays at the city. Wizard A finds a huge hoard of gold but cannot carry it. Using sending to reach Wizard B he asks Wizard B to summon their chest every five minutes and dump it's contents. Wizard A summons the chest and fills the empty chest with gold. Sends it to Ethereal Plane Wizard B summons the chest and empties the content before sending it to Ethereal Plane Rinse and repeat till the entire hoard is taken back to the city within the span of an hour. | In my game, in which I play a wizard, I have met an NPC wizard who is willing to let me learn from her spellbook. This got me wondering what would happen if I learned the spell and cast it on the same large chest that she had already cast it on (using my own separate tiny replica). Would this enable us to effectively teleport objects back and forth by alternately summoning the chest and placing things in it, then letting the other person summon it and remove the items? Or would something else happen? How would the chest work if 2 different wizards cast Secret Chest on it? |

Let $a_n := (1+1/n)^n$ for $n \in \mathbb{N}$ How can one prove that $a_{n+1} \geq a_n$ for all $n \in \mathbb{N}$ with Bernoulli's inequality? I know that the inequality states that $(1+x)^r \geq 1+rx$ for every integer $r \geq 0$ and every real number $x \geq -2$. And if the exponent $r$ is even, then the inequality is valid for all real numbers x. So I have to use induction and for $n=1$ we would get $(1+1/1)^1 = (1+1/(1+1))^2$, and that would give $2 < 2,25$. But wouldn't that imply that all numbers $> 1$ would make $a_{n+1} > a_n$? At which case is it equal? Can someone show me where I can find an induction proof for this? | Show that $U_n:=\left(1+\dfrac{1}{n}\right)^n$, $n\in\Bbb N$, defines a monotonically increasing sequence.

Thank you | I would like to use the Concrete Math font in LaTeX, which is a bitmap font. The rendering with pdflatex is naturally poor-quality with jagged edges. My solution so far has been to generate a DVI file and then convert to PDF using Linux's dvipdf. This tool effectively traces and smooths the edges of the glyphs and the end result is beautiful. However, using the DVI output format (with latex) causes a host of other problems with including figures, etc. For instance, you can't include .png or .pdf figures when using plain LaTeX. Is there a way to somehow get the same bitmap font-smoothing effect in pdflatex? or via an intermediate format that still allows you to include at least .png figures? |
I'm new to this site, english is not my mother tongue, and I'm just learning LaTeX. I'm basically a noob, so please be indulgent if I break any rule or habits. I'm stuck at proving the following equation. I suppose I should use the formula for geometric series ($\sum\limits_{k=0}^{n}q^k=\frac{1-q^{n+1}}{1-q}$), and also use somewhere that $e^{î\theta}=cos(\theta)+i\sin(\theta)$ So here is the equation I have to prove : $$\frac{1}{2}+cos(\theta)+cos(2\theta)+...+cos(n\theta)=\frac{sin(n+\frac{1}{2}\theta)}{2sin(\frac{\theta}{2})}$$ Thanks for your help | I have the formula for summing a finite geometric series as $$1+z+z^2\cdots +z^n = \frac{1-z^{n+1}}{1-z},$$ where $z\in\mathbb{C}$ and $n=0,1,...$. I am asked to infer the identity $$1+\cos\theta+\cos 2\theta+\cdots+\cos n\theta = \frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sin(n+1/2)\theta}{2\sin\theta /2}.$$ Now, I understand that on the left hand side I'm going to get $$1+\cos\theta +\cdots + \cos n\theta + i[\sin\theta + \sin 2\theta +\cdots + \sin n\theta]$$ using $z=e^{i\theta}$ for any complex $z$. However, when I make that substitution on the right hand side, a monstrous expression occurs and I cannot simplify it down to the desired result. For instance, I get $$\frac{1-e^{i(n+1)\theta}}{1-e^{i\theta}}$$ and using identities I get $$\frac{1-\cos [(n+1)\theta]+i(\sin[(n+1)\theta])}{1-\cos n\theta -i\sin n\theta}.$$ From here I did a whole lot of manipulating, but never getting any closer to the identity asked. If anyone could shed some light it would be greatly appreciated! ~Dom |
So while installing Ubuntu MATE 17.04 Grub failed to install and I need to choose where to install the boot loader. The way I see it I have 3 places where I can place it: sda (my supposed ssd but where grub couldn't install) sdb which is where ubuntu is located but not where windows is installed, or sdb1 which is labeled windows 10. Basically W10 is installed on my ssd while Ubuntu is on my regular hard drive and I am unsure of where to install the bootloader | Where is the boot loader, such as Grub, installed generally? When I install 12.04 along side Windows on different partitions of my disk, I encountered a choice for "Device for boot loader installation". If I understand it correctly, it is to specify where to install the boot loader Grub, I found on the internet that it is to specify the disk that contains the partitions for the OS, not any partition on the disk. E.g. disk sda, not partition sda1, sda2. Questions: I wonder where the boot loader installed actually on the disk? Is it installed on any of the existing partitions for the OSes and for personal data, or does it have its own partition, which is also visible e.g. from system monitor of Ubuntu? Thanks and regards! |
Of course I could easily restore my backup. But I wonder what mechanism is responsible for this behaviour. Cheers mkdir ~/Schreibtisch oder even mkdir ~/Desktop (each followed logout/login) did not resolve the problem. | Files in my SSD get duplicated on my Desktop. When I delete any folder/file it gets automatically deleted from the second location (Home) and when I create a folder in any of the locations it gets created in both places. Take this screenshot for reference: I am running Ubuntu 19.04 LTS. |
I am not able to use the shortcut key in Blender, although in Preferences > Input there is normal. For example, I can't use key G for move , S for scale, R, X, Y, Z or Shift + D for duplication, but I can use Ctrl + A and various keys preceded by either Ctrl or Alt.. I have tried many times and more than one time I have to re-install Linux. How do I solve this issue? | I am trying to use the Alt+Right Click to select edge loops in Linux Mint but this shortcut doesn't work it is already used for Linux to reduce a window. I have checked the keyboard shortcut but it doesn't appear. |
I'm trying to use the Group Stats Plugin. Unfortunately I can not use the plugin: after I enter all the required values, press "calculate" is not active and is always gray. My problem is that I have a shape of point that are points for animal sightings. This shape is formed by a text field containing the types of areas (beech, poplar, etc.) and another containing the areas value. I need to calculate the number of records that contains a precise type of vegetation and the sum of the relative areas. Is this possible with Group Stats Plugin? | In my case I failed to use plugin (2.0.30) with QGIS 2.14.11 and 2.18.3 on windows64. Tested on several datasets: points, polygons, and csv.- But I am not sure what I have missed. I want to click on this Calculate button. |
Every time I try to update or install a package or open software center, I get an error something like E: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/tista/adapta/ubuntu disco Release' does not have a Release file. I am on latest Ubuntu 19.04. | When updating, I get the following error message: W: The repository 'http://ppa.launchpad.net/mc3man/trusty-media/ubuntu xenial Release' does not have a Release file. Here, I find another statement on this error: This recommends removing certain PPAs; and, I'm not sure if I should do that since it might mean not getting the updates that I need. Is this what I should do? |
How to convert string to number in PHP? Could any one tell me how to convert string data to number? For example: $Str = "212315"; // convert to 212315 | Using PHP, what's the fastest way to convert a string like this: "123" to an integer? Why is that particular method the fastest? What happens if it gets unexpected input, such as "hello" or an array? |
