Curious on a habit I am starting to see on the trilogy. There is nothing stated on this in the FAQ so figured I would ask here. What is the policy on using a web address as your display name? Personally to me this feels more like spamming since the profile gives you a field for a web address. Just curious what others think.
While doing some flagging (yes, I'm a little bit addicted) I stumbled upon the user . At first the case seemed clear, Spammer, but...and that's a big one, he seems to be a productive member of SU and SO (his account on SF isn't there anymore, but it's still in the Data-Dump of the explorer, not sure what happened).  He does never seem to link against StarWind-Software, except with his name and profile. He also  that he's a developer there...so...at what am I looking here? I can't really place him somewhere.
Tag links in tag excerpts not shown properly If a tag excerpt contains a link to another tag with the [tag:foobar] syntax, this link is not properly shown in every context. For an example see . The link is shown as [tag:school-libraries] but it should be  or at least "school-libraries". At the end of a letter, is it correct to omit "I am" in this sentence?     I am looking forward to hearing from you   Then it will become:     Looking forward to hearing from you Does the universe have a center? If the big bang was the birth of everything, and the big bang was an event in the sense that it had a location and a time (time 0), wouldn't that mean that our universe has a center?  Where was the big bang? What is there now? Are we moving away from the center still? Are these even valid questions? Traditional search-as-you-type on newer Nautilus versions How can I stop certain apps from appearing in the Dash? Update Windows 8 Enterprise to Windows 8.1 Enterprise KMS activation So it is shown that volume license packages of Windows 8, like Pro and Enterprise, are unavailable for upgrading.  I received a link last night to download the Windows 8.1 Enterprise 90-day Evaluation, but it will replace my current Windows 8 Enterprise version.  Is it known when these versions will become available for upgrade? I've been waiting patiently for weeks to get this upgrade.  Thanks. How to avoid overflow using \IEEEpubid on the first column? I am trying to write a journal paper using the IEEEtran.cls template.  My problem is that the Publication ID Mark overflows into my thanks section.  This is the bottom of the title page:    From the documentation of IEEEtran.cls we see that:    I included the command \IEEEpubidadjcol into the second column. This prevents the overflow in the second column as you can see in my previous image, but lets the first column run freely.  I tried including \IEEEpubidadjcol into the first column aswell, but that causes compilation errors.  Please, could you give me some hint on how to solve this problem without doing something illegal with respect to the IEEE modus operandi?  EDIT:  As the answer suggests, the problem can be solved using the \IEEEpubidadjcol command twice. When I tried this, I got an error:  Infinite glue shrinkage found in box being split   In spite of this error a correct pdf is produced. The error goes away when I do not include packages fixltx2e and dblfloatfix. Government investigating home library of missing inventor This is a short story from the 50s or 60s.  A scientist or inventor has invented either teleportation or a space drive and has disappeared - leaving no documentation or clues except his extensive home library.  The government gathers all types of scientists to attempt to duplicate his research.  Several months later, as they are about to launch the first space drive space ship, the officer in charge reveals that there was no 'disappeared inventor'.  The greatest step toward a new impossible concept is knowing that it has already been done. What is the rule for comma placement before a quotation mark? When should the comma go before and when should it go after the quotation mark? I am making the check for update script for my theme  I have 2 text files. First one is called "current.txt" and contains the current version. There is 4.1.1 string in that text file.  Second one is called "latest.txt" and contains the latest version. There is 4.2 string in this text file.  So here is the code  echo "Checking update"; x=$(cat ./current.txt) y=$(cat ./latest.txt) if [ "$x" -eq "$y" ] then        echo There is version $y update else        echo Version $x is the latest version fi   What it mean is if current.txt is NOT the same with latest.txt then it will say "there is version 4.2 update". If not, it will say "version 4.1.1 is the latest version"  But when I try to run it. I get this error  Checking update ./test.sh: line 4: [: 4.1.1: integer expression expected Version 4.1.1 is the latest version   So what am I doing wrong with this? Yu Yuphoria bricked after installing custom recovery and boot file My YU YUPHORIA got bricked while I was working with it. I want to install custom ROM into it for that I am installing custom recovery and boot file but the file that is found on Internet was not working and that's why I am stuck with company logo. I can't go into recovery mod, neither it boot, and USB debugging mode is turned off. I tried to install fresh ROM from fastboot but after installing every driver properly command prompt is showing "waiting for the device". Please sugest some way to get rid of this problem. I want to better understand why the construction something + [adjective] makes grammatical sense. Background: I was recently reading a Washington Post article and came across the following sentence.  So if you fall in that category, [the movie] feels more like magic than repetitive.  (Note: I've copied the relevant spoiler-free sentence above; following the link to the article will open you up to movie spoilers! ) The phrase more like magic than repetitive struck me as odd, presumably because it was non-parallel (more like [noun] than [adjective]). I would have expected &quot;...more like magic than something repetitive.&quot; (Actually, that needs to be rewritten to flow better, but the point is that at least it appears to be grammatical.) Thus, one would have the noun phrase &quot;something repetitive,&quot; of the form &quot;[noun] [adjective].&quot; This got me to thinking about the use of adjectives after nouns. There is a great Stack Exchange article  that involves the characteristics of the adjective that indicate it should come after the noun. But I haven't been able to find examples of how the word &quot;something&quot; requires a postponed adjective. Consider the following sentences:  I want to buy something red. I am looking for something sweet to eat.  You cannot say:  *I want to buy red something. *I am looking for sweet something to eat.  But you can say:  I want to buy something (that is) red. I am looking for something (that is) sweet to eat.  So, my question:  Do the above examples mean that the &quot;something [adjective]&quot; construction is an example of the ellipsis of &quot;that is&quot;?  Is there something special about the word &quot;something&quot; that requires the postponed adjective? Note that I am NOT looking for details about adjectives that are postponed; I'm interested in the word that precedes the adjective (either &quot;something&quot; or similar words).   By the way, I am not interested in the following constructions, which are different:  I want to paint the house red. I tried to build the brick house taller.  Thanks in advance! Calculate $\lim\limits_{x\to4} \frac {\sqrt {1+2x}-3} {\sqrt x -2}$ After I just learned there are ways to cancel out $0$s in the divisor of fractions onto limits I looked back at a task where I gave up when I got the result $\lim\limits_{x\to4} \frac {\sqrt {1+2x}-3} {\sqrt x -2}$ so I tried to find a way to get the $0$ out here, as well. Am I just not seeing the solution or is there no way to do it? I am considering buying a Dell XPS 15 laptop. The laptop has a Nvidia 420m card which should work with Linux but I keep reading that the Nvidia Optimus technology isn't supported on Linux. I am not really interested in switching from Nvidia to Intel to save power but need to know that the Nvidia card will in fact work if I installed Ubuntu.  If anyone has experience using a Nvidia card with Optimus technology or even better the exact laptop in question (Dell XPS 15 with 1GB NVIDIA® GeForce®  GT 420M) it would be great.  A major problem holding people back from adopting Linux is this sort of hardware issue. I am a long term Ubuntu user and supporter who can't afford to make a mistake with a purchase like this. I don't want to spend £500+ to find I have no graphics acceleration because Windows 7 is not an option. How do I force Postgres to use an index when it would otherwise insist on doing a sequential scan? Selenium python drop down menu select How does the linux kernel know device major and minor numbers? As far as I know, the kernel detects hardware, adds information to sysfs creates a device in /dev and then generates a udev event. My question is, do device drivers do all of this or it is the kernel itself? If drivers do it, then they would know the device major and minor number to create the file in devtmps.   I also understand (maybe wrongly) that it is udev who calls modprobe to load the drivers that handle a device.   I was told that they do so with the contents of the MODALIAS uevent environment variable, thus loading all modules whose aliases match this string (the correct driver). In short: what are the steps of hardware detection in linux and WHO performs each step: the kernel itself, the driver inside the kernel or udev in userspace. Thanks. Prove any orthogonal 2-by-2 can be written in one of these forms.... I'd like to prove that any orthogonal $2 \times 2$ matrix can be written   $$\bigg(\begin{matrix}    \cos x &amp; -\sin x  \\     \sin x &amp; \cos x   \end{matrix}\bigg) \hspace{1.0em} \text{or} \hspace{1.0em} \bigg(\begin{matrix}    \cos x &amp; \sin x \\    \sin x &amp; -\cos x \end{matrix}\bigg)$$  for $0 \le x &lt; 2\pi$.  I have no idea how to do this. I feel like this is something I've missed and is really straightforward but I can't find it in my book... How can I make sure that only low and medium security inmates are in a specific area? Is it possible to reverse the overlay you can set? It seems like you are only able to clear areas for low OR medium security prisoners, but sharing is not possible. The thing I want here is to make sure that max security prisoners are not in certain areas. Deriving the inverse of a 2x2 matrix
