I want to map the key command Ctrl+P to a single key so that I can label it for easy access for our Kiosks. I would in particular like a way to do this programmatically via command line. This is going to be for our Kiosk machines we run on Pis. Frankly, I thought that would be very easy, but I seem to be having a very difficult time finding a simple way to do this.   Any guidance, suggestions would be very much appreciated.   This is specifically in raspbian using ubuntu-mate, although I am not booting into a full desktop, only using metacity.   I would like to program another key (Right Shift, Print Screen, Home, not sure which key yet) to deliver the Ctrl + P command sequence. For example, if I decide to use the Home key, when I press home, I want to bring up the print dialog.
I want to implement an addition key layer, so that I can access non-alphanumeric keys without having to move my wrists.  I've been using Autokey for this purpose, but the experience was unsatisfactory: it had occasional lags and let original keystrokes slip into certain apps.  So I need a low-level solution.
I used exposure compensation when I take my shots and adjust it whenever it needs adjustments. Most of the time I shoot using Manual mode.  My problem is, when I'm out on a sunny day I can't judge whether my shot is overexposed or underexposed because the sun is too bright. Sometimes when I checked my viewfinder the image looks perfectly exposed to my eyes, but when I check it on my computer when I get home the images looks underexposed or overexposed. I tried to judge my shot's exposure using histogram, but still having a hard time. The only thing I understand about the histogram is that, the right side is the highlights and the left side is the shadow.  How do you judge whether the shot is overexposed or underexposed when you are out on a sunny day? Using INSERT INTO...EXEC AT linked server into temp table fails with Msg 7391 the structure "like for somebody to do something" I remember reading a sci-fi story where astronauts visit a planet, which is covered in stationary aliens with mile long necks that filter feed from the atmosphere.  It was published between 1960 and 2000.    It was in English and involved a pair of astronauts that went from planet to planet on a tour or something, though I don't know details of any other planets they visited. Should I have separate threads for rendering and logic, or even more?  I'm aware of the immense performance drop caused by data synchronization (let alone any mutex locks).  I've been thinking of taking this to the extreme and doing threads for conceivable every conceivable subsystem. But I'm worried that may slow things too. (For example, is it sane to separate the input thread from rendering or game logic threads?) Would the data synchronization required make it pointless or even slower? Dynamic Keyword Arguments in Python? Does python have the ability to create dynamic keywords?  For example:  qset.filter(min_price__usd__range=(min_price, max_price))   I want to be able to change the usd part based on a selected currency. When to use IMG vs. CSS background-image? In what situations is it more appropriate to use an HTML IMG tag to display an image, as opposed to a CSS background-image, and vice-versa?  Factors may include accessibility, browser support, dynamic content, or any kind of technical limits or usability principles. What’s the rule for using “who” and “whom” correctly? I can never figure out whether I should use who and whom. Most people use who for both colloquially, but some people say this is not correct.  What’s the rule for using who and whom correctly? Basically, here's my MWE, and I need to include "Chapter" before every section title in the ToC (without changing anything else).      \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  \usepackage[english]{babel} \usepackage[titles]{tocloft} \usepackage{titlesec} \usepackage{titletoc}  \addto\captionsenglish{ \renewcommand*\contentsname{\centerline{TABLE OF CONTENTS}}}  %\renewcommand{\thesection}{CHAPTER} %\renewcommand{\cftsecpresnum}{Chapter \thesection} \titleformat{\section}[display]% {\null\vskip1em\sffamily\bfseries\filcenter}{Chapter \thesection}{0em}{}[] \titlespacing*{\section}{0em}{1em}{1em}  \titlecontents{section} [1.5em] % ie, 1.5em (chapter) + 2.3em {} {\contentslabel{1em}} {\hspace*{-1.5em}} {\titlerule*[0.5pc]{.}\contentspage}  \begin{document} \newpage \tableofcontents \newpage  \section{Section One} \section{Section Two} Content \end{document}   The commented out code is what I've already tried. The first one just changes the number to "CHAPTER" and doesn't move the text in the ToC (so it just overlays on top of the name of the section), and if I include "\thesection" after "CHAPTER" it creates an infinite loop definition error. The second one causes no differences, and the code still compiles.  Thanks! I am asked to determine if a series converges or not:  $$\displaystyle\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(2^n)n!}{(n^n)}$$  So I'm using the $n$th root test and came up with $\lim_{n \to {\infty}}\frac{2}{n}\times(\sqrt[n]{n!})$ I know that the limit of $\frac{2}{n}$ goes to $0$ when $n$ goes to infinity but what about the $(\sqrt[n]{n!})$? I am typing to get a sale amount (by input) to be multiplied by a defined sales tax (0.08) and then have it print the total amount (sales tax times sale amount).  I run into this error.

Is "double hashing" a password less secure than just hashing it once? Is hashing a password twice before storage any more or less secure than just hashing it once?  What I'm talking about is doing this:  $hashed_password = hash(hash($plaintext_password));   instead of just this:  $hashed_password = hash($plaintext_password);   If it is less secure, can you provide a good explanation (or a link to one)?  Also, does the hash function used make a difference?  Does it make any difference if you mix md5 and sha1 (for example) instead of repeating the same hash function?  Note 1:  When I say "double hashing" I'm talking about hashing a password twice in an attempt to make it more obscured.  I'm not talking about the .  Note 2:  I know I need to add a random salt to really make it secure.  The question is whether hashing twice with the same algorithm helps or hurts the hash. I have been having a discussion regarding the Shape Water cantrip from the Elemental Evil Player's Companion. A friend and I are trying to come to an accurate view of how this spell actually functions.   Some example questions:   Must the targeted water be within a 5 foot cube area, or does it need to be of a volume not exceeding 125 cubic feet? If you shape water that is within a 5 foot cube, can the final shape you animate it to extend outside the cube? Can you cause the shaping to affect ice and snow, or only liquid water? Would you be able to carry a globe of water alongside you over distances?   Really, there are two parts:    What can be targeted by the spell? What are the limitations on the 'shape and animate' portion of the spell?   The answer I am looking for, if possible, would use the language of the spell, possibly with precedent from other game text, to clearly define the limitations of this cantrip. undefined reference to `__sync_val_compare_and_swap_4' error at compilation, using gcc 4.1.1 and 4.2.0 for Sparc v8 target The   echo one; echo two &gt; &gt;(cat); echo three;    command gives unexpected output.  I read this:  and many other articles about process substitution on the internet, but don't understand why it behaves this way.  Expected output:  one two three   Real output:  prompt$ echo one; echo two &gt; &gt;(cat); echo three; one three prompt$ two   Also, this two commands should be equivalent from my point of view, but they don't:  ##### first command - the pipe is used. prompt$ seq 1 5 | cat 1 2 3 4 5 ##### second command - the process substitution and redirection are used. prompt$ seq 1 5 &gt; &gt;(cat) prompt$ 1 2 3 4 5   Why I think, they should be the same? Because, both connects the seq output to the cat input through the anonymous pipe - .  Question: Why it behaves this way? Where is my error? The comprehensive answer is desired (with explanation of how the bash does it under the hood). Why do modern mountain bike forks no longer use boots on fork stanchions? Why do modern mountain bike forks no longer use boots on fork stanchions? Older mountain bikes used to have them on the forks, and lefty and headshocks still do.

Prove that $\sqrt{n} \le \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{\sqrt{k}} \le 2 \sqrt{n} - 1$ is true for $n \in \mathbb{N}^{\ge 1}$ I'm trying to solve  proposed by the department of mathematics of Oxford University. I don't know how to give a valid proof for the third one which says the following:     Prove that for $n \in \mathbb{N}^{\ge 1}$: $$ \sqrt{n} \le  \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{1}{\sqrt{k}} \le 2 \sqrt{n} - 1 $$   My first approach has been to convert the summation into a function in terms of $n$ so that I could find the maximum and minimum values in the interval. However, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to express the summation as a function. Thanks in advance!
