So a Pit Fiend has a neat little thing called a fear aura. Essentially if you start in it, you have to make a save or be frightened. We know from  that the  would require a creature subjected to this aura from two Pit Fiends would only roll one save. But the Fear Aura also says:  If a creature's saving throw is successful, the creature is immune to the pit fiend's Fear Aura for the next 24 hours.&quot;  Does this mean a creature that successfully passes its saving throw would be immune to the aura from other pit friends, too?
In the chapter on Spellcasting, there is a section called . However, despite the seeming generality of the title, the text of this section only talks about magical effects from spells:     The effects of different spells add together while the durations of those spells overlap. The effects of the same spell cast multiple times don't combine, however. Instead, the most potent effect--such as the highest bonus--from those castings applies while their durations overlap, or the most recent effect applies if the castings are equally potent and their durations overlap.   It makes sense that this section would only talk about spells, since it is in the chapter about spellcasting. However, this seems to leave ambiguous the question of how magical effects from sources other than spells combine. Such an issue could arise, for example, if two different items (or two of the same item) grant a bonus to attack rolls, or a bonus to the same saving throw.  Is there a published rule or official ruling that governs how non-spell magical effects combine?  (This question was inspired by  about the interaction between +X magical ammunition and Oil of Sharpness, and could be considered a generalization of that question.)
remove numbers from filenames in Mac OS X I have a directory full of files with names in this format (with numbers as the start of each filename):  102_file.txt 104_list.txt 242_another_file.txt   I would like to rename them as follows (i.e. removing the numbers):  file.txt list.txt another_file.txt   Can anyone suggest a way to do this (presumably from the terminal)? Removing duplicate strings from an array? As we all know, air consists of many gases including oxygen and carbon dioxide. I found that carbon dioxide is heavier than O2. Does the volume difference neglect the mass difference? Is it same for all other gases in air or is there another force that keeps all of these gases together?  If I take a breath of a fresh air, will the exhaled air be heavier because of its higher CO2 content? Will it fall on the floor? How to make tr aware of non-ascii(unicode) characters? Prove the function is continuous, exercise from Conway's "Functions of One Complex Variable I" Flows/Processes, Version Control and CI I've started using Processes and Flows and am really excited about these features -- but am still wrapping my mind about how to manage them in Version Control (which I use) and Continuous Integration (which I don't yet... but am trying to work in that direction). The underlying challenge is that each time a process or flow is edited, the metadata file is renamed to reflect its update version, e.g. MyFlow-1.flow, MyFlow-2.flow, etc. The Challenge for Version Control If each version of the flow has its own file name, this makes it more complicated to track changes to flows.  It seems like there could be two strategies here:  Rename the files to remove the version number.  I'd need a script to run through my src folder pre-commit, and remove the number so that my file name is always MyFlow.flow.  This is an annoying extra step, but makes version control simpler.  On the other hand, it probably makes deployment much harder.  Track each file in version control with its original name.  We'd need to be diligent about deleting MyFlow-1 in the commit where we add MyFlow-2 so that git would recognize this as a rename/move and show helpful diffs.  Otherwise, the whole file appears to change with every change, which makes version control rather less useful.   The Challenge for Deployment/Continuous Integration From my experiments so far, once a flow has been activated in a given environment, the metadata file can't be deployed again (either it is currently active, or has been active in the past and superseded). That means that I need to prevent my previous flow versions from being included in a deployment package (either by not tracking them at all, or by using a script to delete earlier versions).  I also need some way to determine whether the current version (in my repo) should be included in the deployment payload for a given environment or not. I could imagine a script that (1) downloads flows from the target environment, and removes *.flow files from the payload if they already exist in the target environment, but that feels complicated.  And it's even harder if I've removed the version numbers from my flow files. Are you using flows in VS or CI?  How are you managing these issues? Note:  I'm not sure whether VC and CI should be one question or two - depends on how integrated the strategy for dealing with these two challenges.  If you think these should be separate questions, comment and I'll re-post. I have the following code that shows either a bug or a misunderstanding on my part.  I sent the same list, but modified over an ObjectOutputStream.  Once as [0] and other as [1].  But when I read it, I get [0] twice.  I think this is caused by the fact that I am sending over the same object and ObjectOutputStream must be caching them somehow.  Is this work as it should, or should I file a bug?   import java.io.*; import java.net.*; import java.util.*;  public class OOS {      public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {         Thread t1 = new Thread(new Runnable() {             public void run() {                 try {                     ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(12344);                     Socket s= ss.accept();                      ObjectOutputStream oos = new ObjectOutputStream(s.getOutputStream());                     List same = new ArrayList();                     same.add(0);                     oos.writeObject(same);                     same.clear();                     same.add(1);                     oos.writeObject(same);                  } catch(Exception e) {                     e.printStackTrace();                 }             }         });         t1.start();          Socket s = new Socket("localhost", 12344);         ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(s.getInputStream());          // outputs [0] as expected         System.out.println(ois.readObject());          // outputs [0], but expected [1]         System.out.println(ois.readObject());         System.exit(0);     } } Error in updating to ADT rev 23 for Eclipse Deriving Chinese Remainder Theorem from gcd Bezout identity We want to find the solution $x$ to the congruence system  $$\begin{align} x &amp;\equiv r_1 \!\!\!\pmod{\!m_1}\\ x &amp;\equiv r_2 \!\!\!\pmod{\!m_2}\end{align},\ \ {\rm where}\ \  \gcd(m_1, m_2) = 1$$  These can be rewritten as  $$\begin{align} x &amp;= r_1 + m_1 j\\ x &amp;= r_2 - m_2k\end{align}$$  for unknown integers $j, k$. So we set those two equations as equal and rearrange them to  $$m_1j + m_2k = r_2 - r_1$$  Now assume we perform $\text{egcd}(m_1, m_2)$, which gives us the solution to  $$m_1u + m_2v = \gcd(m_1, m_2)$$  Let the integer $\,h\,$ make $\,h \gcd(m_1, m_2) = r_2 - r_1$.  Then $\qquad hm_1u + hm_2v = h\gcd(m_1, m_2) =  r_2 - r_1 = m_1j + m_2k$  At this point I am lost because I don't think we can just assume  $hm_1u = m_1j$ and extract $j = hu$.   How do I get the values of $j$ or $k$ so I can get the value of $x$?

Prove that the subsequence of a convergent series with nonnegative terms converges How can I reference the script element that loaded the javascript that is currently running?  Here's the situation. I have a "master" script being loaded high in the page, first thing under the HEAD tag.  &lt;!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"  "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"&gt; &lt;html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="scripts.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;   There is a script in "scripts.js" which needs to be able to do on-demand loading of other scripts. The normal method doesn't quite work for me because I need to add new scripts without referencing the HEAD tag, because the HEAD element hasn't finished rendering:  document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(v);   What I want to do is reference the script element that loaded the current script so that I can then append my new dynamically loaded script tags into the DOM after it.  &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="scripts.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; loaded by scripts.js--&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="new_script1.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; loaded by scripts.js --&gt;&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="new_script2.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; K-Means clustering for mixed numeric and categorical data My data set contains a number of numeric attributes and one categorical.

So my question: is it correct to split the categorical attribute CategoricalAttr into three numeric (binary) variables, like IsCategoricalAttrValue1, IsCategoricalAttrValue2, IsCategoricalAttrValue3 ?
