Hi I would like to know if its possible to develop app using HTML, CSS, Javascript and PhoneGap SDK on a Ubuntu system and uploading the app on to Adobe PhoneGap Build for packaging it into native installation files for iOS,Android and windows.  All I see on the official Adobe PhoneGap guide is, its support for OS's like Mac and Windows only.  I know I could use cordova on Ubuntu, But i need to use Adobe PhoneGap Build for packaging the app.
Can .exe and .msi files (Windows software) be installed in Ubuntu?
How do I create a decimal field in Access with Alter Table? I am working on vector auto-regression (VARs) and impulse response function (IRFs) estimation based on panel data with 33 individuals over 77 quarters.  How should this type of situation be analyzed?  What algorithm's exist for this purpose?  I would prefer to conduct these analyses in R, so if anyone is familiar with R code or a package designed for this purpose that they could suggest, that would be especially helpful. "Recent Badges" list is displayed without margins on "Home" page When the &quot;Hide Hot Network Questions&quot; preference is enabled (i.e. HNQ sidebar is hidden), we see &quot;Recent Tags&quot; and &quot;Recent Badges&quot; in the homepage instead of the HNQ. However, the &quot;Recent Badges&quot; list is displayed with no margins. ex.)   I think that the appropriate margins were set in the past. cf.) Should individual letters be preceded with "an"? I was reading a comic book and I noticed that the author used "an A" and "an N" in a particular phrase (screenshot below). While I understand the usage of "An A" here (A being a vowel and what not) and "N" having a pronunciation which has a sound similar to "A".  Since most of English alphabets have pronunciations which start with a syllable similar to one of the vowels or semi-vowels; is it OK to prefix the letters using "An"?  For eg. An X, or An Y.        Zenescope's Grimm Fairy Tales - Werewolves: The Hunger, page #8 (Click to enlarge) What is the best practice for multiple button placement and emphasis? Usually, we only have 2 buttons at the bottom of a form or a page that requires an action: Submit &amp; Cancel.  This one is quite easy to style. However, what if we are dealing with multiple buttons at the bottom of a page? For example:   ← Back | Send Email | Booking Paid | Check-in Guest   I'm thinking of making "Back" just a link (not a button) and making "Send Email" / "Booking Paid" secondary buttons (light gray). Then I'd make "Check-in Guest" as the primary button (green).  I still feel that there's a better way of doing it or dealing with multiple buttons / actions. What do you think? Show that $\sum\limits_{n=0}^\infty \frac{z}{(1+z^2)^n}$ converges for all $z\in \mathbb{C}$ outside $|1+z^2|=1$ Show that $\sum\limits_{n=0}^\infty \frac{z}{(1+z^2)^n}$ converges for all $z\in \mathbb{C}$ outside $|1+z^2|=1$  Actually, I have the problem to understand the meaning of "outside $|1+z^2|=1$". If it means that the collection of $z\in\mathbb{C}$ such that $|1+z^2|&gt;1.$ This problem will be easy to verify since for each given $z$ with $|1+z^2|&gt;1$, then we have $|1+z^2|^{-1}&lt;1$. Then, it is the geometric series with common ratio less than $1$ which implies that the series converges.   Do I have correct interpretation with "outside $|1+z^2|=1$"? If not, what is the correct interpretation with this? Thanks. Meaning of different Orders of Derivative I have been trying to analyse the meaning of higher order derivatives and their geometrical significance.  Given a function $f(x)$ what are the unique geometric interpretation of its higher orders?   $f'(x)$ - slope (rate of change of x w.r.t y) $f''(x)$ - convexity / concavity of $f(x)$ based on $sign(f''(x))$ $f'''(x)$ - increasing / decreasing slope of $f'(x)$ $f''''(x)$ - ?? ... $f^n(x)$ - ??

Error contacting Google servers. This is probably an authentication issue Was Elrond, in Tolkien's opinion, more inherently powerful than Galadriel? I always thought it was the other way around, but then I read this (Letter 246):     "Of the others only Gandalf might be expected to master him – being an emissary of the Powers and a creature of the same order, an immortal spirit taking a visible physical form. In the 'Mirror of Galadriel', 1381, it appears that Galadriel conceived of herself as capable of wielding the Ring and supplanting the Dark Lord. If so, so also were the other guardians of the Three, especially Elrond. But this is another matter. It was part of the essential deceit of the Ring to fill minds with imaginations of supreme power."   This "especially Elrond" confuses me. I don´t think that Elrond is inherently more powerful than Galadriel, who is described as the greatest of the Noldor, except for Fëanor (and possibly even his equal).  A quote from Unfinished Tales says:     "...In this he (Tolkien) emphasized the commanding stature of   Galadriel already in Valinor, the equal if unlike endowments of   Fëanor; and it is said here that so far from joining in Fëanor's   revolt she was in every way opposed to him."   Furthermore,      "A queen she was of the woodland Elves, the wife of Celeborn of   Doriath, yet she herself was of the Noldor and remember the Day before   days in Valinor, and she was the mightiest and fairest (so even   fairer than Arwen I would guess) of all the Elves that remained in   Middle-earth."   (The Silmarillion, of the Rings of Power)  And again...     "Galadriel was the greatest of the Noldor, except Fëanor maybe, though   she was wiser than he, and her wisdom increased with the long years."   (the Shibboleth of Fëanor)  Restating it:     "These two kinsfolk (Fëanor and Galadriel), the greatest of the   Eldar in Valinor, were unfriends for ever." "Who together with the   greatest of all the Eldar, Luthien Tinuviel, daughter of Elu Thingol,   are the chief matter of the legends and histories of the Elves."   (Unfinished Tales)  The latter means that Luthien, Fëanor and Galadriel are the chief matter of the history and legends. It seems to me that Tolkien thought of those three as the creme de la creme of the elven crop.  Reading all that I have serious problems believing that Elrond could be superior to her. As great as Elrond is, descending from Melian, he is no equal of Fëanor, who is said to be the mightiest of all elves, and if Galadriel is his equal, then there is no way that Elrond would be mightier than her.  Maybe I just read this "especially Elrond" wrong; it could as well mean that especially Elrond was deceived into thinking that he could master the ring, because that was the deceit of the ring. And Tolkien said explicitly that only Gandalf could possibly master it.  So, what do you think? How prove :         $$ {31}^{11}&lt;{17}^{14} $$       help please! Is it possible to recover an account deleted at the SE team level? 19MB/s Net Speed but Only 2MB/s Usable Hi so i just got internet a about a month ago and my net speed is 19MB/s, I have tested it on loads of sites they all say the same thing(19MB/s), but it wont use more than around 2MB/s i have tried downloading different ways, and with more than 1 download at a time and I still get capped at about 2MB/s. It affects everything like loading websites and playing games as well. So if I'm downloading (max 2MB/s) and I load up a web page, every thing slows down, the download speed slows and web sites take for ever to load up, what can it be that makes it thus, and speed test say's 19MB/s sudo apt update always giving Clearsigned file isn't valid, got 'NOSPLIT' (does the network require authentication?) I'm working under 12.04 and suppose I have a Firefox windows active (or in foreground) with English as input language and I need to type a document in other language using some text editor.   With the text editor in foreground (or active) and the input language set to a non-English one, when I bring Firefox in foreground (or making it active) the input language remains set to the non-English and the language flag does not switch to English (as it would be expected, since I do not alter the language during the whole Firefox session).  Because of this, I have to make extra moves and change the input language manually every time I switch from the text editor to Firefox and back to text editor. This was not happening with 10.04, and each application windows had the corresponding input language set to its default or previous session every time I was bringing it to the foreground!   How will I make 12.04 to behave the same way? How to install "vanilla" TeXLive on Debian or Ubuntu? Just a curiosity. I just saw a video where pi was being calculated by the series  $$1-(1/3)+(1/5)-(1/7)+...$$  My question is how can $\pi$ be irrational if we can calculate it using rational numbers? Prove that $\left (\frac{1}{a}+1 \right)\left (\frac{1}{b}+1 \right)\left (\frac{1}{c}+1 \right) \geq 64.$ Let $a,b,$ and $c$ be positive numbers with $a+b+c = 1$. Prove that $$\left (\dfrac{1}{a}+1 \right)\left (\dfrac{1}{b}+1 \right)\left (\dfrac{1}{c}+1 \right) \geq 64.$$   Attempt  Expanding the LHS we obtain $\left (\dfrac{1+a}{a} \right)\left (\dfrac{1+b}{b} \right)\left (\dfrac{1+c}{c} \right)$. We are given that $a+b+c = 1$, so substituting that in we get $\left (\dfrac{b+c+2a}{a} \right)\left (\dfrac{a+c+2b}{b} \right)\left (\dfrac{a+b+2c}{c} \right)$. Then do I say $\left (\dfrac{b+c+2a}{a} \right)\left (\dfrac{a+c+2b}{b} \right)\left (\dfrac{a+b+2c}{c} \right) \geq 64$ and see if I can get a true statement from this?
