So, I'm on my friends Realm and we're trying to make a Nether hub, which we did in a previous Realm about a year ago (hers expired and didn't get a new one). She built up a portal that's 5 across, and 6 up and lighted it. She jumped through and then came back, so she could start getting coordinates of my portal so she could make one in the Nether that would make you go directly from there to my portal in the Overworld. Now, here's the problem: She came out of the portal, and ended up in a new place. I went through my own portal, then back, and ended up coming out of the same portal she went through coming back. She had to go, so I destroyed the portal that we kept coming out of. Then, I went through the big portal she made and then back, and it spawned another portal again. Both portals are close to the big portal she made, but we're still confused on why it keeps spawning new portals and not letting us come back through the one we already made.
On our minecraft server, I've built a Nether portal in my basement. Which connected two-way (tested) to a location in the Nether.    This nether portal took me to an area in the nether which was a small cave. I dug upwards and surfaced close to a Nether Fortress. After clearing the fortress of Blaze spawners, I decided to 'move in'. So I went back to the portal, dismantled it, and reactivated in in a location in the Fortress.    The fortress would be within the same 128m radius I would assume as it's really close to the original place. Literally some steps to the surface, then a ladder up the nearest Nether Fortress bridge support.  Now, taking this portal back to my original doesn't work, I spawn deep underground in an Abandoned Mine Shaft.  I read somewhere that my Nether portal has found a 'better match' and this could be remedied by disabling the 'wrong' portal in the mine shaft.  However, upon multiple attempts, a new nether portal is dynamically created in the same area. See screenie for example. You'll see two 'stacked' portals on the left (from my different attempts at disabling) and then the current active one on the right.    My question is, how can I make sure these portals go to the correct place. Is it a matter of returning the portal to it's original location or am I stuck for returning to the basement?
Why can't I define a static method in a Java interface? Analogous results to Euler's theorem Fermat's little theorem and its generalization, Euler's theorem holds for pair of relatively prime integers. Are there any analogous results for not relatively prime integers ? Thanks in advance. Assume I have many TeX files. For the sake of simplicity, also asssume they are in a single folder or directory.  I want to input all files from within my main LaTeX document. Actually I can create a list of those files using C# in advance.  To enrich my view about LaTeX or TeX, could you tell me whether or not this job can be done only by using pure TeX or LaTeX? How to run a complete GUI as root? I don't care if I mess up the system (which is likely if I do things like this), or the potential security issues that this could imply. Note, that I don't just want to "", but run my GUI from bottom-up as root. I don't want to type my password for anything but just for login and have total control over it.  Of course, I want any application running as root, like Firefox, LibreOffice, etc. without having to mess up with the terminal. So, how do I do this?     This question tries to address users that do not like the current permission system with root being separated from normal users. I do not endorse such behaviors, but if a user wants to, for whatever reason, this question should fit their corncerns.   Not advisable for new users We have been using Notes and Attachment to store files related to the record. I also read about Files in salesforce.   How are Files different from Attachment? Are there any limitations or benefits of using Files instead of Attachments?  Are Files available for all editions of Salesforce?  Is it possible to link Files to particular records so they are visible as related list? I tried looking into the content version  but cant seem to find anything to relate to a record Check tag classes with watir? Show that quotient rings are not isomorphic I've been given a homework problem that requires me to show that the rings $\mathbb{C}[x,y]/(y - x^2)$ and $\mathbb{C}[x,y]/(xy-1)$ are not isomorphic.    This is my attempt at a solution:  For $\mathbb{C}[x,y]/(y - x^2)$, we can parametrize in the following way: $x = t$ and $y = t^2$. Then this ring is isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}[t]$.  For $\mathbb{C}[x,y]/(xy-1)$, we can parametrize $x = t$ and $ y = 1/t$. Then this is isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}[t, 1/t]$.   But $\mathbb{C}[t, 1/t]$ is not isomorphic to $\mathbb{C}[t]$.  Am I on the right track? If not, any helpful hints? How to tell Google to crawl distinct part of the webpage? What approach should I take to make the website Google-friendly, .  The problem is that when a specific content is being requested (eg. ) user is taken to the page using scrollbar, though the surrounding content is still being loaded. How to tell Google that for this URL  only the #36 entry should be crawled.  Is there a tag or other way to select the surrounding content as irrelevant for the URL? How to create Custom Fields on Standard Objects in the package.xml Where does $PATH get set in OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard? I type echo $PATH on the command line and get  /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/Users/andrew/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/local/pear/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/opt/local/bin:/usr/local/git/bin  I'm wondering where this is getting set since my .bash_login file is empty.  I'm particularly concerned that, after installing MacPorts, it installed a bunch of junk in /opt. I don't think that directory even exists in a normal Mac OS X install.  Update: Thanks to  for correcting my echo $PATH statement R linear regression categorical variable "hidden" value How does the coin limit work? The new gym update , including a limit of 50 coins earned per day. How does this limit work? Is each pokemon limited to accruing 50 coins per day? Are all my pokemon limited to a collective 50 per day? My teammates keep feeding my Dragonite and she has been at the gym for almost a week; will she return with 50 coins for each day she was there? Fewer than 50 for the days I had other pokemon in the gym? Or will she accumulate vast sums of coins over the week, but only deliver me 50 (or fewer) when she comes back based on what I have collected from returning pokemon that day? Let $f$ be a real, continuous function defined on $[0,\infty)$ such that $xf(x)$ is increasing for all sufficiently large values of $x$. Show that if   $$\int_0^x f(y)\,dy \sim Ax^\alpha \quad \left(\,x\to \infty\right)$$  for some positive constants $A$ and $\alpha$, then  $$f(x)\sim \alpha Ax^{\alpha -1} \quad \left(\,x\to \infty\right).$$  Clearly, I have to use differentiation somewhere, but I don't know how to manipulate $\lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{\int_0^x f(y)\,dy}{Ax^\alpha}=1$ to get the desired result.  From suggestions given, I know that by L'hospital's rule, it's enough to show that the limit $\lim \frac{f(x)}{\alpha Ax^{\alpha -1}}$ exists, and this limit equals $ \lim \frac{xf(x)}{\alpha Ax^{\alpha}}$. From here, I'll need to use the given assumption that $xf(x)$ is eventually increasing. But how can I show the existence of the limit based on these facts?  I would greatly appreciate any solutions, hints or suggestions. What does string theory predict for the singularity inside a black hole? The usual explanation for what's going on inside a black hole goes something like "General Relativity predicts a singularity with infinite curvature, but when matters gets so tightly compressed we should expect quantum effects to become important, so the singularity will probably be blurred". Authors then proceed to say that we need a quantum theory of gravity to answer such things, and quickly abandon the subject.  Well, while we don't have an experimentally confirmed quantum theory of gravity, we do have a speculative one, string theory. What does it say about singularities? Are they smeared out like the books say? Do they remain points (or rings for a rotating black hole) with infinite curvature and density? Do we not know? Why are some applications so hard to find in the Ubuntu Software Centre? Some applications don't pop up in the search even when you type in their name. Take for instance Sushi. When you type in "sushi" into the search box, it fails to throw up the application. Only when you type in "gnome-sushi" does it appear. This is despite the fact that the application has "sushi" by itself in the application description. There are other applications which don't spring to mind right now, but I've discovered before. bash script – for i in {x..y} i am writing a script in bash and I would like to give the two numbers in the brackets, x and y to be precise, as variables.  I wrote the script this way:  echo "x?" read x echo "y" read y  for i in {$x..$y}   but it does not work.  How could I set it up to make it function?  Thanks a lot in advance. Who were the hooded people in The Rise of Skywalker? Near the end of Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker there are several hooded figures that are shown chanting stuff (in Sith?) and just hanging out with Palpatine. Who were these people? FileReader.js nothing happens in IE9 Best way to reward an exceptionally good answer Have you ever gotten an answer soooo good, you wished you could give a +20 instead of +1 ?  Bounty System  That's a good mechanism, but they're not always right for this situation:   Bounties are usually associated with giving incentive to answer or draw traffic. I would expect that most users offered bounties before getting an answer, not after. Bounties are usually offered by people with plenty of reputation. "New" users should be able to reward exceptional answers too.   Thanking in a comment  A warm comment on the answer is always nice, but I'm not sure comments are intended for saying thanks - but to clarify / improve the answer itself.  So what is the recommended way to reward this truly exceptional answer?  Other suggestions?  I know there is an answer of the week blog, is there a way to nominate an answer to be there? Sometimes exceptional answers are hidden in low-interest questions that receive less traffic - so those will never be upvoted enough to become noticed.  Or maybe instead of a single blog for the entirety of SO, there should be an entire section called "Answer of the week" with more than one answer (maybe on a per-tag basis). Answers should arrive there based on manual nominations and not on upvotes so unpopular questions will not be discriminated against.  Clarification:  It's not that I'm personally against bounties - I use them plenty of times. I'm mostly concerned about what other people tend to do. I suspect the bounty post-answer reward is not used as much as it should. I believe the majority of people don't consider bounties for this purpose. What SIM card would you recommend for a smartphone user for travel in Germany?  It would be probably the only or the most important connection to the Internet, so large amounts of data and relatively fast transfer is an issue.  I need to stay in touch with friends and family, so the calls to other EU countries should be as cheap as possible.   For to the first criteria, I found the T-Mobile offer interesting. The internet costs 10 Euros/month and after reaching the transfer limit it stays relatively fast. According to tests (Galileo from Pro7, AFAIR) it has also the best coverage. However, calls to other countries are very expensive.  For to second criteria, Lebara and Mobilka are interesting. The calls are very cheap, but there are problems with signal strength in many locations, where T-Mobile has no problem. The voice quality, at least in Lebara, is also limited. They both have mobile internet with unlimited transfer, but after reaching the high speed limit, the transfer is reduced to 64 kbps, which is too slow.  I've found out that O2 has foreign calls at moderate prices, but I haven't yet checked for details. There are so many other options, making it is hard to compare them all without spending the whole weekend on it. So, if someone has found a better option than having 2 SIM cards and constantly switching them, this answer would be greatly appreciated.
