Just set up a new desktop with the 6th generation intel i5 core (6500) processor, 16GB RAM, and use the on-chip GPU for display. I tried to run Ubuntu 14.04 TLS 64bit version without installation, but I was only able to see the center aligned "Ubuntu ...." screen with purple background. After that it ended quietly at a completely black screen.
Ubuntu can't be installed on my system because of what the title says. This is because support Intel HD Graphics 530 was only just added in Linux kernel 4.3 and all versions of Ubuntu only have kernel versions up to 4.2 as of 15.10. My computer's processor is the new Intel Skylake 6600K if you need to know, everything else is generic. It has a UEFI BIOS motherboard. Help?
Ought we only form beliefs based on sufficient empirical evidence? How to prove this decomposition of sum of squares? I am reading a paper   It has a mathematical step shown as  $$\sum_{i=1}^{n}(x_i-\mu)^2=n(\mu-\overline x)+\sum_{i=1}^n(x_i-\overline x)^2$$  Here the $\mu$ is unknown parameter and $\overline x$ is the known mean of $\mathbf x=(x_1, x_2, x_3, \dots,x_n)$  How do I demonstrate this identity? Why can't I suggest edits on SE meta sites? When you click &quot;edit&quot; on a meta site as a non-edit-privileged user, the error message appears:  Suggested edits are not allowed on non-tag-wiki posts on meta sites.  Right as I was going to post this as a possible bug, I finally found  which says that per-site Metas don't have suggested edits by-design because it's &quot;not needed&quot;. However, I've been participating a lot over at  where there is a lot still to be figured out in terms of site guidelines.  The Meta is one of the most active I've seen and a lot of the questions are really trying to gather community-built suggestions.  So maybe more of those need to be Community Wiki, but it still brings me to ask why don't per-site-metas &quot;need&quot; suggested edits? Adding bounty: The more betas I participate in, the more I don't get this. note: this question has been updated to reflect that we are currently using MySQL, having done so, I would like to see a how much easier it would be if we switched to a CTE-supporting database.  I have a self-referencing table with a primary key, id and a foreign key parent_id.  +------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+ | Field      | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra          | +------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+ | id         | int(11)      | NO   | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |  | parent_id  | int(11)      | YES  |     | NULL    |                |  | name       | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |                |  | notes      | text         | YES  |     | NULL    |                |  +------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+   Given a name, how can I query the top-level parent?  Given a name, how can I query all of the id's associated with a record of name = 'foo'?  context: I am not a dba, but am planning to ask a dba to implement this type of hierarchical structure and would like to test some queries. The motivation for doing so is described by .    Here is an example of the relationships among ids in the table:    -- ----------------------------------------------------- -- Create a new database called 'testdb' -- ----------------------------------------------------- SET @OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS=@@UNIQUE_CHECKS, UNIQUE_CHECKS=0; SET @OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=@@FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS, FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0; SET @OLD_SQL_MODE=@@SQL_MODE, SQL_MODE='TRADITIONAL';  CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS `testdb` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1 COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci ; USE `testdb` ;  -- ----------------------------------------------------- -- Table `testdb`.`observations` -- ----------------------------------------------------- CREATE  TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `testdb`.`observations` (   `id` INT NOT NULL ,   `parent_id` INT NULL ,   `name` VARCHAR(45) NULL ,   PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE = InnoDB;  SET SQL_MODE=@OLD_SQL_MODE; SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=@OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS; SET UNIQUE_CHECKS=@OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS;  -- ----------------------------------------------------- -- Add Example Data Set -- -----------------------------------------------------   INSERT INTO observations VALUES (1,3), (2,5), (3,NULL), (4,10),     (5,NULL), (6,1), (7,5), (8,10), (9,10), (10,3); Populate an entire pre-configured workspace in i3wm Is it possible with I3Wm to populate an entire workspace with determined size, position and commands for each window?  I know I can do i3-msg "exec xterm -e 'ls; bash'" to create a new window, but I can't specify his position and size.  Maybe there is also an alternative by declaring via JSON the layout or something like that? Row space and column space of $A^T A$ and $A A^T$ Apex compile error : variable does not exist I'm having issues with creating a pretty simple test Utility Class. I want to create two records: an account and a related child contact. The error I see in the developer console is:     Variable does not exist: a.ID   My code, based on the Salesforce Apex Workbook, is as follows. I've played around with various things, but it's not working. Where am I going wrong? Thanks in advance.  @isTest public class AccountSaveTestSuite {      public static Account createOneAccount(){           Account testAccount = createAcct('ABC Computing inc.');              Contact testContact = createContact();          return testAccount;             }      // Helper methods //     //        private static Account createAcct(string accountName) {          Account a = new Account(             Name=accountName);         insert a;         return a;     }      private static Contact createContact(){         Contact c = new Contact (             FirstName = 'Jane'              , LastName = 'Smith'             , Account = a.ID); // *** Error is here ***         insert c;         return c;      }  } What is the difference between HTML tags  and ? I would like to ask for some simple examples showing the uses of &lt;div&gt; and &lt;span&gt;.   I've seen them both used to mark a section of a page with an id or class, but I'm interested in knowing if there are times when one is preferred over the other. Do the glowing pillars in The Storm Halls do anything? I've noticed that occasionally if I shoot at (or near) the glowing red pillars they will kind of explode a bit for a second and then reform. Does this affect my attacks in any way? What about nearby enemies? Is this purely cosmetic (like pillars in other dungeons crashing down)? Showing that $f$ is linear function if $\forall z \in \mathbb{C}$, $|f(z)| \leq 1 + |z|$. Let $f$ be an entire function that satisfies $|f(z)| \leq 1 + |z|$ for all $z\in \mathbb{C}$. Show that $f(z) = az +b$ for fixed complex numbers $a,b$.    The hint tells us to try and use Cauchy's Integral Formula on an arbitrary circle.    This is my attempt: Consider an arbitrary large circle with centre $0$ and let $\Upsilon$ be the contour around this circle.    Then $$\int_{\Upsilon} \frac{f(z)}{z^{n+1}} \mathrm{d}z = \frac{2\pi i}{n!}f^{(n)}(0).$$    Note that $$\int_{\Upsilon}\frac{f(z)}{z^{n+1}} \leq \int_{\Upsilon}\left|\frac{f(z)}{z^{n+1}} \right|\leq \int_{\Upsilon} \frac{1}{|z^{n+1}|} + \frac{1}{|z|^n}$$ and the right hand side is $0$ by Cauchy's Integral Formula. I'm not sure if the first equality is valid, and not sure where to go from here. So I'm going to be starting a Job here in a few weeks, I've been doing QA for about 6 years now. Pretty much your standard Test Plans/Testing with a little normal SysAdmin stuff that sometimes comes with the task. I've had some good ideas implemented in companies, as far as tracking requirements/test plans/issues differently, and they seem successful. However, this new position will be me laying down the foundation for QA. Right now things are done in what seems to be as needed as far as QA goes, requirements are gathered and sometimes kept in different locations, same with test plans (which are done by developers right now). So my job will be sort of centralizing this, or developing a Flexible way of QA'ing the Software (Web/Mobile development). So it seems the challenge will be centralizing everything, while creating test plans/ or ways of testing similar requirements that is flexible enough to span projects. I've had a few ideas, however, all my previous test work was windows based (So test plans in TFS or Microsoft Test Manager). I wanted to get some ideas from everyone here, or anyone that has started a QA department from scratch. I was also going to see if there were any books on the subject. My thoughts were mainly keeping projects separated for issue tracking (not sure of the software we will use yet). And keeping test plans for common I guess &quot;actions/elements&quot; that are repeated between different customers and executing those. Eventually maybe using selenium to save those &quot;common&quot; elements as test scripts. But I've never set something up like this before solo, so I've been doing quite a bit of reading. Any books/suggestions would be appreciated! How can I modify the size of swap with LVM partitions? How do I add reCaptcha to a custom form? I need to add a reCaptcha to my form; creating the form then adding the form ID to the reCaptcha settings did nothing. How do you repair an "input/output error" in an NTFS partition? What's the meaning of the transpose? Does SQLDeveloper support executing scripts? Integrate : $\int \frac{x^2}{(x\cos x -\sin x)(x\sin x +\cos x)}dx$ $$\int \frac{x^2}{(x\cos x -\sin x)(x\sin x +\cos x)}\ dx$$   My approach :   Dividing the denominator by $\cos^2x$ we get $\dfrac{x^2\sec^2x }{(x -\tan x)(x\tan x +1)}$ then  $$\int \frac{x^2\sec^2x}{x^2\tan x -x\tan^2x+x-\tan x}\ dx=\int \frac{x^2(1+\tan^2x)}{x^2\tan x -x\tan^2x+x-\tan x}dx$$  But I am not getting any relation between numerator and denominator so that I will take any substitution and solve further please suggest whether it is correct and how to proceed in this. Thanks. Citing a range of papers using numeric keys as in \cite{a, b, c} -> [1-3] How can I cite a range of papers, the output is a range of numbers, instead of a list of numbers? In other words, when I type  ... some dummy text here is due to me \cite{me1, me2, me3, me4} ...   I want the output to be     ... some dummy text here is due to me [3-6] ...   instead of     ... some dummy text here is due to me [3.4.5.6] ...   (I use LaTeX, and am currently using the amsart class and whatever it includes. But I am open to other suggestions.) Is there a shortcut for switching between these three modes? What is wrong with this chi-squared calculation? I am calculating chi-squared in R and manually, and getting two different answers. I believe that R is correct, but I am not 100% sure.  Can someone please help me understand why?  In R:  test           &lt;- matrix(c(4203, 4218, 786, 771), ncol=2) dimnames(test) &lt;- list(group = c("control","exp"), click = c("n","y")) print(test) print(Xsq      &lt;- chisq.test(test, correct=F))    This gives me $\chi^2 = 0.1712$.  If I do this by hand, however, I get $0.339$.  Here is my calculation: \begin{align} \frac{(E1 - O1)^2}{E1}     &amp;+ \frac{(E2 - O2)^2}{E2}    &amp;  \\ \frac{(4203-4218)^2}{4203} &amp;+ \frac{(771 - 786)^2}{786} &amp;= .3398 \end{align}
