Why do we write. He talks as if he were my master? Shouldn't the verb be singular in this case? And if not then why?
In which cases should I use the subjunctive mood?     I suggest that every applicant fill out the form carefully.        If she were rich, she would live on Long Island.
There are $k$ penguins, $k\ge 3$. They are all different heights. How many ways are there to order the penguins in a line, left to right, so that we cannot find any three that are arranged tallest to shortest (in left to right order)? The penguin triples do not have have to be adjacent.  This problem is courtesy of someone I know only as "DaMancha." Multivariate multiple regression validation Either fix edit preview display to render bare links to more than five sites just like the post renderer, or convert all links The tablet functionality stops working after I wake my Lenovo Tablet from sleep mode (closing &amp; opening lit). The error message is "Tablet Serial Wacom Tablet (Lenovo X201) removed" (screenshot: ). In the system settings under input devices it states that "No tablet device is detected". Only a restart helps and the touch screen works again.  This error appeared only after upgrading from Kubuntu 12.04 to 14.04. In 12.04 the same error message appeared after waking from sleep mode, but then another followed that the tablet was activated again and it worked properly. Any ideas how this could be fixed? What are the specifics of 18.04's ten year support? Which graphic file formats are supported by browsers? How to construct a relative path in Java from two absolute paths (or URLs)? What if 'kill -9' does not work? I have a process I can't kill with kill -9 &lt;pid&gt;. What's the problem in such a case, especially since I am the owner of that process. I thought nothing could evade that kill option. I have a directory full of images:  image0001.png image0002.png image0003.png ...   And I would like a one-liner to rename them to (say).  0001.png 0002.png 0003.png ...   How do I do this? I have a financial transaction that looks something like this (pseudo):  begin     select record for update     update record(same record as selected)     insert another record into another table commit   If I call SELECT ... FOR UPDATE within the transaction, will the lock be released for the specific rows only when the transaction is committed ? Variable scoping in Module Ubuntu does not offers me "install alongside Windows" I've already defeated the Big Bug.   I see the hint that the small bugs disguised as cursors are vulnerable to the three words "Charity", "Uganda", and "Bram".  I think I have all keys available, I've tried undoing with the bugs on the three words, I've tried motions which include the three words in their range, I have each of the three words stored in a named register, but I haven't figured out how to defeat the three small bug minions underground in Level 14 of Vim Adventures.  I suspect I should have defeated them before defeating Big Bug, maybe even before finding 'undo'. Is there instead something I should do in the 'lorem' buffer where I found the three cursors (Blue, White, and Pink) at the beginning of the level?  How does one defeat the three small bug minions in Level 14? Automatically resize uploaded images Possible Duplicate:             Could large images of more then 640 pixels wide automatically be resized to reduce loading time and band width use? Not that I have a prehistoric internet connection here, but sometimes pages seem to need unnecessary time to load fully.  I just resized the image  from 179 kb down to 32 kb using a 15% compression rate. I think that is already worth it, although there have been much bigger downsizes in the past.  This feature then propably should/could be combined with , and uploading an image then would result in the following post addition:  [![enter image description here][2]][1]  [1]: http://i.stack.imgur.com/ZSBxw.gif "View &lt;image title&gt; full sized" [2]: http://i.stack.imgur.com/VXmBA.jpg "&lt;Image title&gt;"   Update:  I now understand from  that images áre resized already, but that post authors have to do some changes themselves. Could it then be automated to add the already resized image (that with the l suffix):  [![enter image description here][2]][1]  [1]: http://i.stack.imgur.com/ZSBxw.gif "View &lt;image title&gt; full sized" [2]: http://i.stack.imgur.com/ZSBxwl.jpg "&lt;Image title&gt;" Updated WiFi fix for Yoga 13 and Ubuntu 16.04? I have a Lenovo Yoga 13 and I was running 14.04 on it and I've since upgraded to 16.04. I applied the fix descibed here () with 14.04 and it worked but no longer seems to with 16.04. I know that the way Realtek drivers work was reorganized in Linux kernel 4.4 () however I don't know enough about what was changed to know if that was the problem. Has anyone else experienced this issue or know how to fix it? Negative R squared contradicts ssa/sst? Dynamic Symlinks I have built my app for different architectures and would like to create a "dynamic symlink" which takes me to the right version based on a variable.   If the machine I am currently logged in to, is x86, then the symlink should take me to that build.  A mocked example of what I want to do:  $ uname -i x86_64  $ ls -ltr  lrwxr-xr-x  1 dogbane gg     4 Feb 16 15:40 mylink -&gt; @sys/ drwxrwxr-x  2 dogbane gg  2048 Feb 16 15:40 x86_64/ drwxrwxr-x  2 dogbane gg  2048 Feb 16 15:40 i386/  $ cd mylink  $ pwd -P ~/x86_64   Is this possible?   I know I can use cd $(uname -i), but want something simpler. 'find' utility does not output all files when using wildcards Running:  $find . -name *.exe   gives:  ./MakeItSo_1.2.2/MakeItSo_1.2.2/MakeItSo.exe ./MakeItSo.exe   but those are not the only exe files in the directory. For example, running  $find . -name ATLTester.exe   gives:  ./Debug/ATLDmoVexaTester.exe Objects not rotating with each other (Rubik's cube) Is it "me" or "I" and why?
