I would like to ask a question about a licence (GNU GPL) but, I am not sure which is the right community. I have already read many sources, including the official one and also the most frequent asked questions section. However, since this is a delicate matter and I would not want to ruin things, I want to make sure that I understood correctly. Also, not being a native english speaker causes me trouble when it comes to specific topics - like licences for example. Someone suggested me Superuser, but It did not seem like the right place.
Is it appropriate to ask questions about software licenses/licensing on ? Or is the appropriate place  ? Or is there no appropriate site currently and we should suggest such a site on ?
bash aliases equivalent for powershell? By default my Windows PowerShell starts in C:\Users\Santosh, my XAMPP installation is in D:\ so the htdocs folder is located at D:\xampp\htdocs. If I have to edit something in htdocs folder then I have to type full cd D:\xampp\htdocs\ (autocompletion is not so kind) then edit that file.  If this PowerShell were a Bash I would do this in .bash_aliases file:  alias htdocs='cd D:\xampp\htdocs'  Is it possible to maintain Bash aliases like file and alias any command in PowerShell? How can I swap Ctrl and Fn keys on a corporate computer? Our computers have been upgraded to HP EliteBook 8570p machines and while they're very nice machines, they are also very large -- so large that the left Ctrl key is too far away, making Ctrl+V really difficult to do with one hand.  I'm sure there are ways to re-map the keys so that their signal is swapped. But add the factor of corporate security, is there still a reasonably simple approach to this?  I'm sure you'd like more information before you can answer -- I'll try to add updates based on comments and answers. Taken from :  Show that it cannot be the case that $U=X+Y$ where $U$ is uniformly distributed on [0,1] and $X$ and $Y$ are independent and identically distributed. You should not assume that X and Y are continuous variables.  A simple proof by contradiction suffices for the case where $X$, $Y$ are assumed discrete by arguing that it always possible to find a $u$ and $u'$ such that $P(U\leq u+u') \geq P(U\leq u)$ while $P(X+Y \leq u) = P(X+Y \leq u+u')$.  However this proof does not extend to $X,Y$ being absolutely continuous or singular continuous. Hints/Comments/Critique?

Encode URL in JavaScript? How do you safely encode a URL using JavaScript such that it can be put into a GET string?  var myUrl = "http://example.com/index.html?param=1&amp;anotherParam=2"; var myOtherUrl = "http://example.com/index.html?url=" + myUrl;   I assume that you need to encode the myUrl variable on that second line? I am using find -type f command to recursively find all files from a certain starting directory.

I am trying to align some text to left/center/right in the same line. For example, I want to put my phone number on the left, my name in the center, and my email on the right, how do I do that? "Stack Overflow requires external JavaScript from another domain" message What does the Asterisk * mean in Objective-C? Why does a bigger sensor lead to a shallower depth of field? It has been mentioned at    that a larger sensor results in images with a shallower depth of field. Example image:          I understand how sensor size would relate to, for example, field of view, but the relationship with depth of field does not seem straightforward.  It actually seems contradictory - I have more wells on my sensor, and I am able to focus on less number of points.  What is the reason for this effect? Number of solutions to the congruence $x^q \equiv 1 \mod p$. Let $p, q$ be distinct odd primes, I would like to compute the number of solution $\mod p$ to the congruence $x^q \equiv 1 \mod p$. (Show that it's $gcd(q, p - 1))$  If $x^q \equiv 1 \mod p$, since $q$ is prime, this must mean that $x$ is either $1$ or has order $q$.   Hence, the problem reduces to finding the number of elements of $U_p$ which is either $1$ or has order $q$.  If $ q \nmid  p - 1$, then there is only one element, namely $1$.  If $q \mid p - 1$, then the number of elements of order $q$ is $\phi(q) = q - 1$, and so the number of solutions to the congruence $\mod p$ is $q - 1 + 1 = q$, and in either case the number of solutions is $\gcd(q, p - 1)$.  Does this look fine? Use induction to prove a product of sums of squares is a sum of squares Prove that $\binom{m+n}{m}=\sum\limits_{i=0}^m \binom{m}{i}\binom{n}{i}$ I need to proof this following equality :  $$\binom{m+n}{m}=\sum_{i=0}^m \left(\binom{m}{i}\binom{n}{i}\right)$$  This is what I did combinatoric proof:  Left : subset with $m$ members from $m+n$  Right : $\binom{m}{i} \rightarrow$ The number of subsets in set $m$ could also be written as $2^m$ AND $\binom{n}{i} \rightarrow$ the number of subsets with $m$ members from set $n$  In case $ n \leq m \implies \binom{n}{i}=2^n$  So this is what I came up with I still can't see why those expression are equal.  Any ideas? Thanks. Please note: I posted this question about an hour ago on my account (I just made it as I am new to the site). I revisited my post and saw that I had not given definitions of what I was asking (I thought they were common notations) and it would not let me edit the post for some reason so I will ask here now and hopefully someone can delete the other thread.  How to prove for a finite group $G$ that $|\langle g \rangle|=o(g)$?  Here are the definitions:  Let $G$ be a finite group and $g \in G$  $o(g)$ is the smallest $m \in \Bbb{N}$ such that $g^m=e$ (the identity element of the group). (If such an $m$ exists)  $\langle g \rangle=\{g^m : m \in \mathbb{Z}\}$  I really don't know how to show that this is true I tried to say let $o(g)=m$ and then show that $|\langle g \rangle|$ has exactly $m$ elements but I wasn't even sure it did because it would contain the elements $g^0,...g^{m-1}$ so that would mean it's true but what about $g^{-1}$ and the other elements with negative coefficients so it seems like it would actually be bigger than $m$?  Thanks. Study the following limit: $$ \lim\limits_{ (x,y,z) \to (0,0,0) } \frac{xy-z^2}{x^2+y^2+z^2} $$   I'm not sure if this way of proving that the limit does not exist is correct so I'm this is basically for a proof verification.  Approaching $(0,0,0)$ through the plane $z=0$, then the limit becomes  $$ \lim\limits_{ (x,y) \to (0,0) } \frac{xy}{x^2+y^2} $$  Now this limit does not exist, because approaching $(0,0)$ through the line $y=0$, the limit becomes  $$ \lim\limits_{ x \to 0 } \frac{0}{x^2} =0$$  But if we approach $(0,0)$ through the line $y=x$ we have that  $$ \lim\limits_{ (x,x) \to (0,0) } \frac{x^2}{2x^2}=\lim\limits_{ (x,x) \to (0,0) } \frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{2}$$  So the limit $ \lim\limits_{ (x,y) \to (0,0) } \frac{xy}{x^2+y^2} $ doesn't exist. This means that the limit we began with doesn't exist, correct? I'm experiencing a bug where when the machine comes back from standby a monitor connected via displayport (MST) does not come back on, however the windows are still in the area it cover if it did come on.  The only way to recover from this short of a restart is to disable and reenable the display now I can do that via the command line just fine but when the display is disabled all the windows get rearranged onto the remaining screen.  Is there a way to persist the window positions and restore them so my script could do this sequence:-   enumerate windows, store positions display off (messing up positions) display on (making the display work again, yay!)  restore position of the windows   I can do step 2 and 3 just fine but I'm lost for step 1 and 4  I know I can force a position per app but that's not what I want as I could be doing different things and have the same apps in different positions, I also have multiple terminals open, I need the current positions storing somehow and restoring.  Any help would be appreciated!
