How is it possible the universe expanded faster than the speed of light during inflation? In a documentary written in collaboration with Stephen Hawking, the narrator (supposedly Stephen Hawkings) says that by the time the cosmos was 10 minutes old, it had already expanded thousands of light years in diameter. How is it possible that matter was traveling faster than light?
Can space expand with unlimited speed? just after the Big Bang and before inflation the currently observable universe was the size of a coin. One millionth of a second later the universe was the size of the Solar System, which is an expansion much much faster than speed of light. Can space expand with unlimited speed?
How can I display "recent folders" in the sidebar of "Save as" dialogue? I was using 14.04 and upgraded to 16.04 yesterday.   In 14.04 I had recent folders on top of the sidebar of the Save as dialogue when I saved something from the net (Firefox if that helps). But that feature disappeared in 16.04 and I really want to have it back.   Here is a picture of what I'm trying to explain:  (the save as dialogue in 16.04 without the recent folders on top) So from what I remember it was on cable TV. The main hero was a TV actor zapped to a alien planet. It had a evil overlord with a virgin priestesses. She wants to get laid but he refuses because the next priestesses is only three. Regardless it's a parody things include a man who was maimed by the evil overlord wants revenge the hero eventually screws the virgin priestesses it cuts to scenes of a train going into a tunnel and a volcano erupting. Equals(=) vs. LIKE When using SQL, are there any benefits of using = in a WHERE clause instead of LIKE?  Without any special operators, LIKE and = are the same, right? Search window not opening in ArcMap? How to run Windows 10 from an external hard drive? I am currently able to boot from an external drive or multiboot USB. Taking this concept one step further, I have 3 questions:   1) Is it possible to install and run Windows 10 on a portable external hard drive or USB card with the same functionality of being installed on the internal drive?   2) Is it considered legal to do so or will it affect Windows updates in any way?   3) What are the steps to do that? (please outline steps I can follow so I don't lose a drive in the process). :)  EDIT: My question deals specifically with Windows 10, the legality and method of making it a standalone OS running from an external device and what effect if any it has on Windows Update; questions not dealt with in the other question. Graphical interpretation of LASSO I am trying get an unused server up and running, it booted fine but i was greeted with the login window and none of the known passwords seem to work. The server I am trying to get to work is not a Domain Controller and has not been used in a long time.  OS: Windows 2003 Server R2 Enterprise Edition  I tried Ophcrack XP (there is no WinServer version of Ophcrack) - it couldn't locate the partitions with hashes. I tried mounting the partitions myself (#mount /dev/hda*x* /mnt/ntfs), but it gave me an error saying /dev/hda*x* didn't exist.  Next I tried booting into a Ubuntu 10.04.3 LiveCD so that I could install and use chntpw - no go, Ubuntu Live wouldn't boot.

There are 'n' candies and 't' boxes. Find the number of ways to place the candies in the boxes for each of the conditions (given in the problem). There are 'n' candies and 't' boxes. Find the number of ways to place the candies in the boxes for each of the conditions (all the candies must be spread out) : (a) candies and boxes are different; (b) candies of the same diiferent boxes should not be empty cartons: (c) candies equally new, boxes are different; Edit :(d) candies are different, the boxes are the same, there should be no empty boxes; (e) candies of different boxes alike.(Edit : candies are different, boxes are equal) Specify the display type that matches the placement, if possible. My Answers : (a) Each layout is encoded with a word of $n$ letters from the alphabet of 't' letters $\implies$ possible $n^t$ variants. (b) Write, $n$ candies in the form of balls ina line, we need to put $(t-1)$ partition in $(n-1)$ place, but we can't put two partitions on one place, so we get : $^{t-1}C_{n-1}$. (c) First we need to choose a candy in a box (in the first box $n$ ways, in the second box $(n-1)$, $\cdots$ in the $t-th$ : $(n-t+1)$ ways $\implies$ total $n!/(n-t)!$ methods, and then we distribute the remaining $(n-t)$ candies into $t$ boxes, this is encoded with owrds from the alphabets (for each candy $t$ variants) $\implies$ $t^{n-t}$. The Answer is : $\frac {n!}{(n-t)!}*t^(n-t)$ Are my answers (a), (b) &amp; (c) are correct? For (d) &amp; (e) I don't know how to proceed? Please help me.

Watching Star Trek made me think of a few "deeper" questions about Starfleet, which are all related to the Star Trek TV series.  So, let's take for example the Dominion War: people are dying every second, ships get destroyed and cadets are still joining although they know they are probably going to die unless they are with Picard or Sisko.  As I read and got to understand, money has no value anymore, latinum is the general trading currency in the universe. But people on Earth don't trade and don't earn their paychecks. Earth is a much better place than today and yet young boys and girls from every culture/civilization are joining Starfleet as they are willingly signing their death note.  Why are they joining, what motivates them? They might know that they're probably going to die.  They don’t earn paychecks. They could be doing any other job, yet they choose this. And what's more interesting how many died on battlefields must be lined up in front of StarFleet every day?  What do they receive after service? Why are they doing it other than preserving their homes? Create instance of generic type in Java? How does the coin limit work? I have played and tried to GM games since I was in elementary school, beginning with games like Shadowrun, Earthdawn, and Champions. Recently, I've gotten dack into gaming with a variety of other games (newer Shadowrun and Earthdawn, plus TOON! and Outbreak:Undead).  I've found examples of actual play and advice on how to actually GM a game in games to be lacking. I can only help but feel I am not alone as someone who isn't already a LITERAL dungeon MASTER.  I fully realize that there are an unlimited number of GM styles, personalities, etc. I do not think I am a very good GM though. No one else wants to be the GM, and few care enough to learn the complex rules that I often have to assist with and explain AS WE PLAY. Being left with the responsibility is quite overwhelming unless I create dynamic encounters or make it all up on the spot. I'm often left having no idea what to do.  Examples of Why I Think I Need Help  This question isn't about these examples so please don't dig into them in the answers - they're here to explain the basic things that leave me feeling like I don't know how to proceed as a GM.  I've read preparation is important, but last time I tried to make a story, the players immediately killed the primary character (a friendly person.) within about 2 minutes of starting the game. While I realize now that I let the dice take control over the story, it was rather difficult to continue a story that relied on this friendly character, with the players making enemies with the character's faction. It is still discouraging when my only other attempt at a prepared story ended with the players wanting to go in a complete opposite direction of where I planned. Both times, the hours of work I put into it were completely wasted, leaving me as ignorant as I always was before.  My group often wants to play Shadowrun, Earthdawn, or L5R- but I feel as though I am a horrible GM. The last time we played Shadowrun, I was bored out of my mind as we rolled hundreds of dice to do an obvious straight-forward "kick down the door" mission.   If I make security as I believe it should or as the forum threads describe their security or a few example missions I can scrounge up (examples of stories, not actual gameplay), my players literally feel completely hopeless as to how to achieve their mission without total failure.   One time when I was a teenager, I had players blow up at me saying "We have no idea what would work. You're telling us that our character's experience or the ally operative says that would get us killed, but what else can we do?" Since there are no examples of what players can do - I am left with the same feeling as the players. As an adult, I've had a similar occurrence where a player said to me, "I don't know what to do. I don't think we can even begin this mission." I had to make something up and just go with it, creating an NPC group (that fit in with the story) that goes in before the players to do something stupid so they don't have to. Mainly because I ALSO didn't know how to accomplish the mission, so I acted as the players would using my NPC group. Extremely boring and IMO a failed dungeon run.  I've had successful stories, but I've had more boring encounters than successful ones. Seeing as how roleplaying takes endless hours to complete a story, I do not see benefit in an activity that wastes more time than is enjoyable.  How Do You Learn To GM?  Where are the resources? Books, blogs, gameplay examples? Am I missing them? How did YOU learn to be a good GM? Or do you feel as bad at this as I do, even when it's a successful, fun encounter? Let $G$ be a finite group. For each positive integer $m$, if $x^{m}=e$ has at most $m$ solutions in $G$, $G$ is cyclic.   What I have thought is that $n=\sum_{d\mid n}\phi(d)$ can be used to solve this and showing that $|G|$ order element in $G$ exists is enough. What sort of waves are produced by tuning forks?

I used to work on the Mac terminal before and I used:   open file2open.pdf   and the PDF file would be opened on preview or whatever my default viewer was. When I use it in the terminal in Ubuntu I get this error message:   Couldn't get a file descriptor referring to the console I was reading a review of 5e game play  from our RSS Feed. And in it he makes an observation about a strange rule:     Weird rule thing. You recover half your level in hit dice during a   long rest, which means level 1 characters never recover hit dice.   That didn't make sense to me, and so I double checked the long rest rule and it reads:     At the end of a long rest, a character regains all lost it points.   The  character also regains spent Hit Dice, up to a number of dice   equal to half of the character’s total number of them. For example, if   a  character has eight Hit Dice, he or she can regain four spent Hit   Dice upon finishing a long rest.   And of course the rules state that in general you always round down.  Am I missing something? Is there a good explanation for why at first level you can't recover hitdice? I am married to a UK citizen. What type of visa do I need to travel to the UK for tourism? I am a Bangladeshi citizen married with my husband who is a British citizen by birth. Currently, we both live in Bangladesh and my husband works at a university. We, are planning to visit UK for about 3 weeks. Just to be clear, we have no intention to settle down in the UK.  Do I need to apply for a visa? If so, then what type of visa should I apply for?  N.B. I've been searching on the internet (including the UK border agency website) for hours now but couldn't get a definite answer.
