I am one of the developers of Kubernetes.  We have an on-call rotation answering questions here, but we get rate-limited in our answers.  How can I, the owner of the product, answer more questions without this silly rule?
I noticed that I can only perform certain actions such as commenting a finite number of times in a given period of time. Obviously, rate limiting is in place to prevent accidental misuse or intentional abuse of certain features.  Where else is rate limiting applied on Stack Exchange sites, and what are the limits?
How to deal with upvoted yet clearly wrong answers Is there a way to add a timer to a Beamer presentation? I have seen presentations in Power Point which contain a timer. Can this be done in Beamer using a simple command, or maybe a package? If not a timer, is it possible to at least get a clock on your slides? I'm on IBM AIX 7.1 where cURL and wget are not available. Also, I'm not in a position to install either.  Are there alternatives that would be available that would enable remote API calls using GET/POST? Sometimes when you're downloading an image and the connection breaks mid stream, you are left with a half downloaded image. If you try to view it you get the upper part of the image and the bottom part is usually coloured grey or green or some other color.  In other words, it is corrupted.  Is there a way to check whether the image is damaged in that way or otherwise corrupted? How can I apply Newton's sums to solve this problem? I'd like to implement a big int class in C++ as a programming exercise&mdash;a class that can handle numbers bigger than a long int.  I know that there are several open source implementations out there already, but I'd like to write my own.  I'm trying to get a feel for what the right approach is.  I understand that the general strategy is get the number as a string, and then break it up into smaller numbers (single digits for example), and place them in an array.  At this point it should be relatively simple to implement the various comparison operators.  My main concern is how I would implement things like addition and multiplication.  I'm looking for a general approach and advice as opposed to actual working code. What are tag badges? How do they work? Show that the rings $2\mathbb{Z}$ and $3\mathbb{Z}$ are not isomorphic. According to WolframAlpha,  but I don't know how I can prove it. I hava Lenovo g580 laptop. I want to change disk to SSD drive, but I'm not sure if my laptop support SATA 3 (6Gbps).  I write following output:  dmesg | grep SATA [    3.190743] ahci 0000:00:1f.2: AHCI 0001.0300 32 slots 6 ports 6 Gbps 0x5 impl SATA mode [    3.199450] ata1: SATA max UDMA/133 abar m2048@0xd3617000 port 0xd3617100 irq 43 [    3.199455] ata3: SATA max UDMA/133 abar m2048@0xd3617000 port 0xd3617200 irq 43 [    3.518365] ata1: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) [    3.857921] ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)   Is that means I Can use SSD disk in SATAa 6Gbps mode? I'm using PostGIS 1.5.2, with geometries in SRID:900913. I need create a circles using a list of points as centre, with a radius of 600 kilometers. I'm using this query:  INSERT INTO circles (geom) (    SELECT ST_Buffer(point, 600000, 'quad_segs=8')     FROM points );   But circles created have not 600 kilometers of radius (radius is near this length, but not exactly).  Are there other methods to create circles in PostGIS?  NOTE: Information represented is from Spain. Correct projection is 4326, but client use Google rasters, so I am storing data in 900913 to avoid reprojections and increase performance. The problem of counting the solutions $(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_n)$ with integer $a_i\geq0$ for $i\in\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ such that $$a_1+a_2+a_3+....a_n=N$$ can be solved with a stars-and-bars argument. What is the solution if one adds the constraint that $a_i\leq r_i$ for certain integers $r_1,\ldots,r_n$?  e.g. for $n=3$, $N=6$ and $(r_1,r_2,r_3)=(3,3,2)$, the tuple $(a_1,a_2,a_3)=(2,3,1)$ is a solution, but $(2,1,3)$ is not a solution because $a_3=3&gt;2=r_3$. Can I install a ROM made for a different device? I own a MicroMax A100. I want to install the latest version of a different ROM (Samsung or Nexus).  Is it possible? If so, can you tell me how?  If not, can I install a ROM made for a different device, but from the same manufacturer? For example, could I install a ROM for the MicroMax A110, which is the successor of A100? Can anyone tell me how to judge if a supervised machine learning model is overfitting or not? If I don't have an external validation dataset, I want to know if I can use ROC of 10 fold cross validation to explain overfitting. If I have an external validation dataset, what should I do next? What can you say about the range space and null space Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $F$ and $T$ a linear operator on $V$. If $T^2$$=$ $0$, what can you say about the relation of the range of $T$ to the null space of $T$? I was recently watching Episode 3 and a few clone wars episodes, and I found myself thinking during the opening battle between the Republic and General Grievous' forces above Coruscant, on a planet so densely populated where potentially thousands of inhabitants can be killed from a drifting capital class ship with a decaying orbit during space battles what defenses are in place?  Is there any instances of some form of emergency services that tractor beam chunks of debris to safe landing places or repulsor towers that can slow or suspend it until it can be taken apart safely? Even disintegration lasers or emergency force field generators like the types deployed on Hoth as they must have the energy output capable of sustaining it. This IS the galactic capital so must have some advanced tech at its deposal. Even now in our own development humans have certain preventative measures for all types of threats and ways of tracking them, plus responses or fall back plans. Let's say you have a typical web app and with a file configuration.whatever. Every developer working on the project will have one version for their dev boxes, there will be a dev, prod and stage versions. How do you deal with this in source control? Not check in this file at all, check it with different names or do something fancy altogether? return statement vs exit() in main() Should I use exit() or just return statements in main()? Personally I favor the return statements because I feel it's like reading any other function and the flow control when I'm reading the code is smooth (in my opinion). And even if I want to refactor the main() function, having return seems like a better choice than exit().  Does exit() do anything special that return doesn't? Express js - can't redirect Let's say that you want to output or concat strings. Which of the following styles do you prefer?   var p = new { FirstName = "Bill", LastName = "Gates" }; Console.WriteLine("{0} {1}", p.FirstName, p.LastName); Console.WriteLine(p.FirstName + " " + p.LastName);   Do you rather use format or do you simply concat strings? What is your favorite? Is one of these hurting your eyes?  Do you have any rational arguments to use one and not the other?  I'd go for the second one.
