Will google consider a UK language site and a US language site as duplicate? I googled around this for some time now and the answer is not completely clear for me. I found a similar question here  but this was regarding a web-shop, which was exactly why it was easier to do.   The website I'm working on is not a web-shop. The us site will be on a subdomain: us.example.com   I wonder weather there is a way to make sure that google will not consider uk and us sites as duplicate? As the content on both sites will of course be quite similar. I do know about hreflang, but are there other things to be done to make it easier for google? Or do you have some good tips for this issue?
International TLD's vs. duplicate content I currently work at a pretty big website that has visitors from around the globe. My job is to help out on the SEO, and one thing we've been discussing lately is the use of international TLD's. The ones we use range between:   (partly) translated websites like .es and .de that serve most of the content in the country's language non-translated (english) websites for non-english languages (due to a lack of translations) like .ro and .cz english websites for english speaking countries with localized TLD's (.co.nz, .co.uk)   On one hand I really have the feeling this is causing a lot of duplicate content, especially for the last two categories of TLD's.   On the other hand though it seems a lot like country-specific TLD's tend to score a lot better in that country's Google. Would it be advisable to keep on using these domains, or should we canonicalize them all to the .com version?
the output when I start firefox from Terminal Is there any way to erase personal information from my phone that has already been stolen? My phone has been stolen. I do not want the thief to have access to any of my personal information such as calls, texts, and information saved in the phones contents. Is there any possible way I can get this information erased from my phone? What's the meaning of the term "gib"? Especially while talking about FPS, the term "gib" is quite common. While I get it's related to a sudden and gruesome death, I'd like to know its actual meaning and where it comes from. 'Possible duplicate' comment not appearing for questions with deleted comments containing the link I posted a comment to a duplicate question on . But I decided to delete it. Afterwards I voted as duplicate and thought a comment would be generated like     possible duplicate of ...   But it didn't. My guess is that the duplicate-comment won't be generated if a comment exists with that link, even if deleted. Export iMessages in human readable form for archival I have a long (several months' worth) iMessage conversation with a contact.  He lost these messages when he re-installed his OS, but I still have the archive.  There is some important information there that we'd like to keep.  Is there a simple way to export this conversation for archival in a human readable form, and also keep any images?  I can select parts of the conversation, copy it to the clipboard and paste it into a rich text document, but this discards all images.  I'm looking for a way that keeps the images.  Note: I use iMessage on OS X only, not iOS.  (Ideally I'd also like to export all non-image file attachments, but I'm not expecting that this will be possible.) Prove that $\phi(n) \geq \sqrt{n}/2$ complex polynomial satisfying inequality Can Button[] generate output without using Print[]? Windows 10 on asus x44h touchpad scolling not working I have just updated Windows 7 to Windows 10.  My touchpad scolling (right-side) is not working anymore.    I have no idea how to fix this in Windows 10.  I have hit the start button and typed "synaptic", but have found nothing useful.  I used to have an icon on the taskbar that showed where I was touching the touchpad.  I used to be able to right-click that icon to change settings, but Windows 10 has not brought that icon over.  Also, the asus website has no synaptic touchpad drivers available for Windows 10.  I have tried the enaltech drivers, but upon the installation atempt I am told that my hardware is not correct. Installing Steam on Debian I have ran into some issues when it went down to install Steam on Debian. The console as well as Apper comes up with missing dependencies  and the package isn't going to install. If dark matter only interacts with gravity, why doesn't it all clump together in a single point? I'm a complete layperson. As I understand, dark matter theoretically only interacts with the gravitational force, and doesn't interact with the other three fundamental forces: weak nuclear force, strong nuclear force, and electromagnetism.  Those are my understandings going in. If I'm wrong, please correct me. I've done some googling, and I haven't found anything confirming or denying that dark matter is affected by either of the fundamental nuclear forces.  So since dark matter only interacts with gravity, what causes any dark matter particle to be repelled from another? If they can pass freely through each other, and they are gravitationaly attracted to each other, why don't such particles clump together in a single 'point' in space?   It seems to me that particles occupying a single 'space' are philosophically not distinct particles, but I don't know how actual physics would play into this.  Edit , author's credentials unknown, but implicitly claims to be a physicist or astronomer, says "...[P]hysicists generally take all dark matter to be composed of a single type of particle that essentially interacts only through gravity."  Edit 2 The author is this , "Professor of Science on the physics faculty of Harvard University." How do I tokenize a string in C++? Java has a convenient split method:  String str = "The quick brown fox"; String[] results = str.split(" ");   Is there an easy way to do this in C++? I have a bunch of views/reports built for my client. The reviewers then click download csv for the excel file. They asked if the views could download themselves daily to a folder.  Is that possible? And could you share links or knowledge how to handle this. I have been trying to figure it out.  Note: Right now the user is downloading CSV's from Drupal 7, an install of Moodle 1.9 in a Drupal 6 Shell and Survey Monkey. After they download and combine using Excel, the user creates reports that way for the users we have come to our events. Being a Front-end developer, coding is not my strength. Proving that if $|f''(x)| \le A$ then $|f'(x)| \le A/2$ Suppose that $f(x)$ is differentiable on $[0,1]$ and $f(0) = f(1) = 0$. It is also   known that $|f''(x)| \le A$ for every $x \in (0,1)$. Prove that   $|f'(x)| \le A/2$ for every $x \in [0,1]$.   I'll explain what I did so far. First using Rolle's theorem, there is some point $c \in [0,1]$ so $f'(c) = 0$.  EDIT: My first preliminary solution was wrong so I tried something else. EDIT2: Another revision :\  I define a Taylor series of a second order around the point $1$: $$ f(x) = f(1) + f'(1)(x-1) + \frac12 f''(d_1)(x-1)^2 $$ $$ f(0) = f(1) + f'(1)(-1) + \frac12 f''(d_1)(-1)^2 $$ $$ |f'(1)| = \frac12 |f''(d_1)| &lt;= \frac12 A $$  Now I develop a Taylor series of a first order for $f'(x)$ around $1$: $$ f'(x) = f'(1) + f''(d_2)(x-1) $$ $$ |f'(x)| = |f'(1)| + x*|f''(d_2)|-|f''(d_2)| \leq \frac{A}{2} + A - A = \frac{A}{2} $$  It looks correct to me, what do you guys think?  Note: I cannot use integrals, because we have not covered them yet. Without using Axiom of Choice, prove that $$\forall\alpha\geq\omega,~~|L_\alpha|=|\alpha|,$$  in which $\alpha$ is an ordinals, $\omega$ is the set of natural numbers, $L_\alpha$ is the $\alpha$-th constructiable set, $|x|$ is the cardinals of $x$.  I am learning a set theory, and I have read a proof by using AC. The AC is used only when $\alpha$ is a limit ordinals during the transfinite inductive method for $\alpha$ . I wonder if there is a proof without AC. 　THANKS! Convert char to int in C# I have a char in c#:  char foo = '2';   Now I want to get the 2 into an int.  I find that Convert.ToInt32 returns the actual decimal value of the char and not the number 2.  The following will work:  int bar = Convert.ToInt32(new string(foo, 1));   int.parse only works on strings as well.    Is there no native function in C# to go from a char to int without making it a string?  I know this is trivial but it just seems odd that there's nothing native to directly make the conversion. Show $\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty}{2n \choose n}x^n=(1-4x)^{-1/2}$ How do you prove that $\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty}{2n \choose n}x^n=(1-4x)^{-1/2}$? I tried to identify the sum as a binomial series, but the $4$ and the $-1/2$ puzzle me. (This series arises in studying the first passage time of a simple random walk.) The PS4 is now released in the EU, but due to shipment shortages is not available for sale unless pre-ordered a long time ago. Luckily, it seems as though Dualshock 4 controllers are availble for sale in a number of shops already.  I've long decided to buy the PS4 as well as a second Dualshock 4 controller, so I've been considering buying the "second" controller now in order to replace my old Xbox 360 controller, whose D-Pad is useless and whose RB button no longer responds correctly. But before I buy the Dualshock 4 early, I wanted to know how well my PC will support it.  I already know that , but what exactly does work, and what doesn't?  Can I expect the same key-mapping on the PC as on a PS4?  Basically, can I replace my Xbox 360 controller with a Dualshock 4 and still play games like Batman Arkham Asylum/City/Origins as if I were using the old Xbox 360 controller? If $l$ and $n$ are any positive integers, is there a  proof of the identity     $$\sum_{k=0}^{n}(-1)^{k}\binom{n}{k}(l-k)^n=n!\;$$   which uses the Inclusion-Exclusion Principle?  (If necessary, restrict to the case where $l\ge n$.)    This question is closely related to   and also I have always had a problem installing and removing compiled software, so I have decided I would like to build software from source into a .deb package for easier installation/removal.  I would like to know of an easy and short way to build source into a .deb package, as an end user.  I have tried:   , which did not work for me This  guide, but I found it too long
