Is there any way to turn on some sort of progress update for compilation using TikZ?  I'm working on the fireworks question on a rather slow machine (ARM chromebook) and starting to have my doubts about whether it's actually doing anything (it just sits  there saying (/usr/local/texlive/2016/texmf-dist/tex/latex/latexconfig/epstopdf-sys.cfg)).  I can write some terminal dump code and probably will, but is there anything off-the-shelf?
Often I need to recall the different \tracing commands; and a couple of times I stumbled on some webpages that worked fine for me; sadly, I didn't keep them, and my searches don't take me there anymore.   So I thought I'd ask about links to where one can read a list of \tracing commands?   For instance,  mentions:  \tracingall \tracingassigns \tracingcommands \tracinggroups \tracingifs \tracinglostchars \tracingmacros \tracingnesting \tracingonline \tracingoutput \tracingpages \tracingparagraphs \tracingrestores \tracingstats \tracingscantokens   .. but, I'm pretty sure there was something like \tracingboxes (and not so sure if there was something like \tracingglues); yet I cannot find any resources mentioning those.
I'm trying to create a functioning sub theme of Omega 4.4. I've worked  with Drush before with it, but the site is on a host that I'm not administrator of. I've tried the  but not succeeded in executing the Omega Wizard. In short, the Omega Wizard may be extremely helpful, but I can't get it to work.   Next, I've tried to manually create a sub theme using the . However, the results of this is a theme catalogue in the Themes-folder, but the theme not showing up in Drupal. Perhaps I'm using the wrong instructions for the wrong version of Omega?  Anyhow, does anyone have instructions for how to install an Omega 4.4 sub theme manually for Drupal 7? How do I change my username? 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. Photoshop To CSS: How do you translate Fill to CSS Since I installed EasyTag on my Arch Linux several other programs use EasyTag instead of Nautilus as filebrowser.  For example, Firefox starts EasyTag if I click on "open containing folder".  Where can I set Nautilus as my "standard file browser"? Here, we suppose that $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$ and that $x^n=y^n$, where $n$ is odd. I want to prove that $x=y$.  Maybe we can use that $x^n-y^n=(x-y)(x^{n-1}+x^{n-2}y+...+xy^{n-2}+y^{n-1})$  So, it suffices to show that if $x^n=y^n$ then $x^{n-1}+x^{n-2}y+...+xy^{n-2}+y^{n-1}\neq 0$  Any hint? Should we pass a shared_ptr by reference or by value? Preparing CSV files for use in ArcGIS Desktop?

How can I run a program on a remote Windows PC in our network without the need of killing an existing remote-desktop-connection? I only need a command line for running the program and getting its results. Thank you! When does $P(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}{\frac{n!}{n^n}\cdot x^n}$ with $x\in \mathbb{C}$ converge? Why do we need Diffie Hellman? Diffie–Hellman offers secure key exchange only if sides are authenticated. For authentication, sides are using public/private key. So if side A knows the public key of the side B, then A can simply use that key to encrypt the message (or the new session key).  Why bother to use separate key exchange algorithm? Using ST_Union in PostGIS I have a spatial table (polygons,polylines) in a database. These are digitized by multiple people. For example, a state is divided into multiple Grids and given to multiple people to digitize using QGIS; which is connected to a postgres database. Now, I have to merge all those polygons and polylines. I don't know how to do this via ST_Union. I Used the following snippet to merge the polygons and polylines CREATE TABLE schema_name.polygon_un2 AS SELECT upg.un_geom,npg.Column1,npg.Column2,npg.Column3,npg.Column4,npg.Column5  FROM (  SELECT st_union(the_geom) As un_geom,(   SELECT oid FROM schema_name.polygon    WHERE oid = 100748191   ) FROM schema_name.polygon WHERE oid IN (100748191,100763519)  ) upg  INNER JOIN schema_name.polygon npg ON npg.oid = upg.oid;   DELETE FROM schema_name.polygon WHERE oid IN (100748191,100763519);  I have the interesecting polygon oid in a Seperate Table, I want to do this process in an update query and that should be a dynamic plpgsql function.  Green : Grid , Other : Polygon But This snippet did not work !! The snippet which i expect is  It should create a new row for the merged polygons and polylines (eg oid - 1 and 2 merged to oid 3).  The polygons which are not merged (eg 1 and 2 should be deleted) Make font size bigger than max limit of 1296 pt in Adobe Illustrator (2015)? For some reason and for many years there's a limit for font size in Illustrator. It is 1296 points max, so you can't go bigger without converting type to outlines first. Converting to outlines means you will not be able to edit type parameters and text it-self. Don't know how about you, but this makes me sad in non-destructive editing era.  What's your workaround? What's the best way to take a segment out of a text file? 32-bit, 64-bit CPU op-mode on Linux Let $L$ and $R$ be $n \times n$ matrices. I am trying to solve the following minimization problem  $$ L^{k+1} := \arg \min_{L} \lambda \|L\|_{\ast} + \frac{1}{2\mu}\|L-R^{k}\|_{F}^{2} $$ $$ \mbox{s.t.}\ L \succeq 0 $$  where $\|\cdot\|_{\ast}$ and $\|\cdot\|_{F}$ denote the nuclear and Frobenius norms, respectively. Also, $k$ expresses the $k$th iteration when solving an optimization problem successively.  I don't know how to solve this problem. Would you tell me the way?

How do I add a custom script on a specific page? I wanted to add custom JavaScript code on certain nodes. I have written this code in the html.tpl.php template, but this doesn't work.
