I need some clear cut answers to a question that gave birth to a divorce after 15 years of marriage. My ex husband's phone( Samsung Galaxy 6) would show him at many questionable places that he says he was not while he was supposed to be "at work". For example it showed him at hotels and he told me he didn't know why it would show that. Then gave me the reply that if you drive by a hotel they send out wifi signals that place you there just by driving by there. Now I have driven by a lot of hotels in our area and they never pinged me at any of them and we had the same GPS location feature. Mine always lined up where I went that day and his would be at all kinds of places.I asked around and no one has ever heard of this and I really want to know is this true???
I have a major problem that I hope someone can help with. On my Google Maps feature under my Location History it shows a location that I was never at at any point, but when my wife happened to see that location she doesn't believe me that the GPS could be wrong and pinpoint that location if I was never there.  I was first wondering myself how could that could be possible if I was never there or my phone was never at that location that was 35 miles away from me and second is there any way I could prove the GPS being wrong? Can I contact Google Maps and can they give an official printout of that certain day and every location I was? I really need to prove my honesty to her and hope there is a way.
Cloning a Non-Standard Svn Repository with Git-Svn I'm relatively new to Git, but I've found it so easy to work with at home that I'd like to use it at work where our projects are stored in Svn repositories. Unfortunately, the repositories are slightly non-standard and I'm having trouble getting them cloned. Sure, they all have trunk, branches/ and tags/, but branches/ and tags/ have subdirectories before hitting the real project directories:  trunk/ branches/maintenance/release1 branches/maintenance/release2 ... branches/development/feature1 branches/development/feature2 ... tags/build/build1 tags/build/build2 ... tags/release/release1 tags/release/release2   After cloning:  $ git svn clone -s --prefix=svn/ https://mydomain.com/svnproject $ git branch -r   development   development@1340   maintenance   maintenance@1340   tags/build   tags/build@1340   tags/release   tags/release@1340   trunk   trunk@1340    I get none of the actual project branches or tags. I actually need to be able to work on the trunk, one maintenance branch and one development branch. I've tried this approach in addition to several hacks at modifying the config, but nothing is working for me.  Is there any way I can get the key components of my non-standard Svn project into a local git repository so that I can easily move between them?  Many thanks.  UPDATE: I should add that I can't do a wholesale switch to Git (yet). There are other team members involved and an international presence. The logistics of the transition are more than I'm willing to undertake until I'm much more comfortable with Git; as I mentioned, I'm still pretty new. I've barely scratched the surface of its capabilities. Prove $aba^{-1}b^{-1}\in{N}$ for all $a,b$ I am trying to prove the above with the conditions that N is normal to G and $G/N$ is abelian.  So then for $Na,Nb\in{G/N}, NaNb=NbNa$.  But $NaNb=Nab=Nba$, so then we know $ab=ba$, so G is abelian.  So if $ab\in{G}, N=abN(ab)^{-1}=abN(ba)^{-1}=baNa^{-1}b^{-1}....$ and i'm getting lost... Is Ubuntu based on Debian unstable or Debian testing? which of the two it is? Intuition for $\,c\mid a,b \iff c\mid \gcd(a,b)$ Is it acceptable to write a thank you in a comment? There have been a number of cases where I would like to thank someone for providing me with a thorough response and give them feedback beyond the vote up. Often I wish people would tell me why they voted me up. Not that the thank you part is necessary but it sets it apart from the other comments related to answering the question itself.  In this type of situation is a "Thank you" acceptable in a comment?     For more information, see  in the . How do I remove a property from a JavaScript object? After two days of installation, strangely my Ubuntu machine is restarting instead of shutdown from both desktop GUI and command line.  sudo shutdown -h now sudo halt  # (doesn't shutdown, instead freezes on boot screen Plymouth)   I had force shutdown by powering off the machine.  This is not happening all the times.  I have been using Ubuntu for 6 months and never experienced this kind of problem. What defines the maximum size for a command single argument? I was under the impression that the maximum length of a single argument was not the problem here so much as the total size of the overall argument array plus the size of the environment, which is limited to ARG_MAX. Thus I thought that something like the following would succeed:  env_size=$(cat /proc/$$/environ | wc -c) (( arg_size = $(getconf ARG_MAX) - $env_size - 100 )) /bin/echo $(tr -dc [:alnum:] &lt;/dev/urandom | head -c $arg_size) &gt;/dev/null   With the - 100 being more than enough to account for the difference between the size of the environment in the shell and the echo process. Instead I got the error:  bash: /bin/echo: Argument list too long   After playing around for a while, I found that the maximum  was a full hex order of magnitude smaller:  /bin/echo \   $(tr -dc [:alnum:] &lt;/dev/urandom | head -c $(($(getconf ARG_MAX)/16-1))) \   &gt;/dev/null   When the minus one is removed, the error returns. Seemingly the maximum for a single argument is actually ARG_MAX/16 and the -1 accounts for the null byte placed at the end of the string in the argument array.  Another issue is that when the argument is repeated, the total size of the argument array can be closer to ARG_MAX, but still not quite there:  args=( $(tr -dc [:alnum:] &lt;/dev/urandom | head -c $(($(getconf ARG_MAX)/16-1))) ) for x in {1..14}; do   args+=( ${args[0]} ) done  /bin/echo "${args[@]}" "${args[0]:6534}" &gt;/dev/null   Using "${args[0]:6533}" here makes the last argument 1 byte longer and gives the Argument list too long error. This difference is unlikely to be accounted for by the size of the environment given:  $ cat /proc/$$/environ | wc -c 1045   Questions:   Is this correct behaviour, or is there a bug somewhere? If not, is this behaviour documented anywhere? Is there another parameter which defines the maximum for a single argument? Is this behaviour limited to Linux (or even particular versions of such)? What accounts for the additional ~5KB discrepancy between the actual maximum size of the argument array plus the approximate size of the environment and ARG_MAX?

'Which', 'whose' or something else? Currently, a user does not get any notification when a trivial edit (less than 6 characters, by a user who has the ) is made on one of his/her posts. As in .  Even though the user is trust-worthy (owing to the rep of the user), wouldn't it be nice for the OP to get a notification whenever an edit is made, even trivial? Enumerate non-isomorphic graphs on n vertices In the following the graphs are assumed to be undirected and simple.  1.Enumerate the number of non-isomorphic graphs on $n$ vetrices where $n$ is fixed.  Here are some ideas I had:  The number of labeled graphs is $ 2^{\frac{n(n-1)}{2}} $.  So it is enough to find the number unlabeled graphs on $n$ vertices.I have no idea for this.  2.Enumerate the number of non-isomorphic graphs on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges where $n,m$ are fixed.   Can we find a closed formula for each of this?  Any help?   Thank you! Intuitive explanation of entropy I have bumped many times into entropy, but it has never been clear for me why we use this formula:  If $X$ is random variable then its entropy is:  $$H(X) = -\displaystyle\sum_{x} p(x)\log p(x).$$  Why are we using this formula? Where did this formula come from? I'm looking for the intuition. Is it because this function just happens to have some good analytical and practical properties? Is it just because it works? Where did Shannon get this from? Did he sit under a tree and entropy fell to his head like the apple did for Newton? How do you interpret this quantity in the real physical world? Let $\times$ = cross product and $a$ and $b$ have vector signs on them.  $a = [a_1, a_2, a_3]$  $b = [b_1, b_2, b_3]$  How would I prove this? Do I expand out cross product?  Any help is appreciated! What is the $n$ times iterate of $f(x)=\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}$? Suppose $K/F$ is an extension field, and $E_1$ and $E_2$ are two intermediate subfields of finite degree. Let $E$ be the subfields of $K$ generated by $E_1$ and $E_2$. I'm trying to prove that $$ [E:F]\leq[E_1:F][E_2:F].$$  Since $E_1$ and $E_2$ are finite extensions, I suppose they have bases $\{a_1,\dots,a_n\}$ and $\{b_1,\dots,b_m\}$, respectively. If $E_1=F$ or $E_2=F$, then the inequality is actually equality, so I suppose both are proper extension fields. I think $E=F(a_1,\dots,a_n,b_1,\dots,b_m)$. Since $\{a_1,\dots,a_n,b_1,\dots,b_m\}$ is a spanning set for $E$ over $F$,  $$[E:F]\leq n+m\leq nm=[E_1:F][E_2:F]$$ since $m,n&gt;1$.  Is this sufficient? I'm weirded out since the problem did not ask to show $[E:F]\leq [E_1:F]+[E_2:F]$ which I feel will generally be a better upper bound. How to test multiple variables against a single value? ASP.NET: Is there a way that I can simply pass a model into a view and render it to a string? I was amused by the expression "Paid a penny and only farted" (related by @FumbleFingers), which suggested a similar Japanese saying: 大山鳴動鼠一匹 - "Find only a small mouse coming out after hearing rumblings and experiencing shaking of the big mountain."  It’s humorous. I chuckled when I read it, and I wrote to the author that I love it.  With that said, the word "fart" reminds me of another Japanese proverb, 百日の説法屁一つ- "A fart ruins 100 days of sermons by the priest", which means that a small mistake (the sound of a fart in front of the congregation) brings all his efforts to naught.  It can’t happen in big Western churches. But it could well happen in a small wooden temple where a priest would preach to 30 – 50 provincial followers. Can you imagine how the proud priest being called 'the venerable' would be embarrased when his loud fart is heard by all his followers during his serious sermon and they start to giggle here and there in the hall?  We also have a similar saying" 九仞の功を一簣に欠く, which literally means "Collapse a 9- meter sand tower with the last pile of sand."  What is the English equivalent of the saying "A fart ruins 100 days of sermons by the priest (bishop): a small mistake depreciates the value of (vitiates) all labor and effort to naught," preferably in such a humorous way? Is it possible to check a bash script syntax without executing it?  Using Perl, I can run perl -c 'script name'. Is there any equivalent command for bash scripts?
