How to make the Terminal make a noise on command completion? Let's say I run a command which takes a long time to do its stuff, but I don't want or need to look at it the whole time, and as I need to do some other stuff as well I might get into that and forget to check on how the command is doing for some time... Then when I finally do check I may find that the command finished 3 hours ago and needed my attention then... Or perhaps it didn't need my attention, if I had seen that it had finished at the time I would have had more time to run more commands...  So I was wondering if there is a way to get it so that when a command or program has been run, whenever it finishes and returns to $, for it to make a little sound, like play an mp3 file or something? Though it would be acceptable just to get this working in gnome-terminal, I would like it in as many CLI environments as possible including the TTYs if that would be possible... I am running Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 with GNOME 3.18.
How to make a sound once a process is complete? I have started a long process through a terminal. Is it possible to make the Ubuntu terminal make a sound once the process is complete? This way, I don’t need to keep checking, but will instead be notified through a sound.
Is there an issue tracker for already reported Mathematica bugs? Why do corn flakes clump together in milk when stirred? The Cheerios Effect is the name the scientific community has given to this phenomenon. When cornflakes or oats are mixed with milk and stirred, they tend to clump together. Why does this happen? Can physics explain this? I would like to know how to get the version information of an installed program that doesn't have the      --version or -version   method implemented. Tikz: setting options for pin I just found the pin option to drawing, and it looks useful in some of the things I want to draw. How do I format it though? I've tried pin=[red]60:{Hey!} and I get the error Cannot parse this coordinate.  \documentclass{standalone} \usepackage{tikz} \usetikzlibrary{shapes,arrows,positioning} \begin{document} \begin{tikzpicture}[node distance=2cm,&gt;=latex, every node/.style={     font=\sffamily\scriptsize     },       circtext/.style={draw,circle,minimum size=8pt,inner sep=2pt},     dot/.style={draw,circle,fill=black,minimum size=0.6mm,inner sep=0pt} ] { \node[rectangle, fill=green!10!white!90!black, minimum width=6cm, minimum height=3cm] at (2,0){}; \node[circtext, fill=yellow](A) at (0,0) {A}; \node[circtext, fill=yellow, right=of A](B){B}; \draw[-&gt;] (A) -- node[dot, pos=0.5, pin=[red]60:{Hey!}](C){}(B); } \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}     The default style looks like it's a gray thin arrow, and I want to change it to a black thin dotted line with no arrow.    update: I figured out how to add style to the pin node:  pin={[red]60:Hey!}]  But I can't figure out how to change the linestyle though. I've noticed in the last couple of days that there have been a few occasions when there's been a sudden surge of questions in the SO "Reopen" review queue.  Normally there's either no questions at all to reopen or at most three or four, and that's still the case, except that for the last couple of days I've gone to the review page and seen about fifty-odd questions in the queue, where just moments before there had been none.  I've gone through the reviews and the questions themselves seem reasonably legitimate (including the occasional audit), so I'm not questioning that... it just seems odd that there would be so many more than usual all of a sudden, and that they'd all appear at once.  Anyone got any insights, or should I just chalk this down as "one of those things"? Show that the free group on $n$ generators is a finite index subgroup of $F_2$ Using covering spaces, prove that for each integer $n \geq 2$, $F_n$ is a finite index subgroup of $F_2$, where $F_n$ is the free group on $n$ generators.  I get how the cayley graph of $F_n$ would be a wedge of $k$ circles and the cayley graph of $F_2$ would be a graph of a vertex and two edges, but I don't understand how we can create an injective map from $F_n$ to $F_2$ and show its a subgroup. I am confused with the grammar here. Which is grammatically correct?       At which time will you call me?     At what time will you call me?    And why? "Have you ever seen anyone walk (walking) the streets like that?" Have you ever seen anyone walk the streets like that? Have you ever seen anyone walking the streets like that?  Are both the above sentences grammatically correct? Do they mean the same?  I saw him kiss her the other day. I saw him kissing her the other day.  Are both the above sentences grammatically correct? Do they mean the same? And I'm sorry, if the latter two sentences come off immature .-. I couldn't come up with better sentences. Converting a list of tuples into a dict I have a list of tuples like this:  [ ('a', 1), ('a', 2), ('a', 3), ('b', 1), ('b', 2), ('c', 1), ]   I want to iterate through this keying by the first item, so, for example, I could print something like this:  a 1 2 3 b 1 2 c 1   How would I go about doing this without keeping an item to track whether the first item is the same as I loop around the tuples? This feels rather messy (plus I have to sort the list to start with)... mysqli or PDO - what are the pros and cons? In our place we're split between using mysqli and PDO for stuff like prepared statements and transaction support. Some projects use one, some the other. There is little realistic likelihood of us ever moving to another RDBMS.  I prefer PDO for the single reason that it allows named parameters for prepared statements, and as far as I am aware mysqli does not.  Are there any other pros and cons to choosing one over the other as a standard as we consolidate our projects to use just one approach? What's a good back-up strategy for 1 desktop PC? linux command to prevent dos attack by using netstat and iptables I want to DROP more than 200 requests per ip to prevent ddos attack. this is command that i used to detect requests count per ip :  netstat -alpn | grep :80 | awk '{print $5}' |awk -F: '{print $(NF-1)}' |sort | uniq -c | sort -nr   now i want add all ip addresses that made more than 200 requests into IPtables to DROP input and out put. How do I survive in the Nether? Error while running Quickly What is the word that is used to describe the oversimplification or non-academic discussion of a complex issue?   Typically, I'm looking for a word like pedantic, or puerile, except that the word covers the fact that the discussion is particularly non-academic. I know that such a word exists since I have used it before, but it has skipped my mind. I have 4 time series. One of them is stationary and rest of them are not. I need to find relation between them. I will use AIC to decide lag length.   Should I use VAR or VECM to find relation between them?  Will VAR or VECM give me relation in terms of equation which can be used for forecasting?  Do I need to perform Johansen's test of cointegration?  What good would it do? True\False?  For every matrix $A\in M_{2}( \mathbb{C}) $ there's  $X\in M_{2}( \mathbb{C})$ such that $X^2=A$.  I know that every complexed matrix has a Jordan form matrix $J$ such that $P^{-1}CP=J$, But it's not diagonalizable for sure.  Thanks states that the relationship between current ( I ) voltage ( V ) and resistance ( R ) is  $$I = \frac{V}{R}$$  However  cause the resistance of a material to go to zero, and as I understand it, as $R \to 0$, $I \to \infty$. Does this present a problem for Ohm's law? Given a continuous random variable $X$ and the pdf find.... There is a pattern excercise:  First pattern: We have $X$ and the probability density function is usually:  $$ f(x) = \begin{cases}   {ax+bx^2} &amp;  {0\lt x \lt 1} \\   0 &amp; \text{else}   \end{cases} $$  Then we are given $E|X| = 0.6$   And usually asks to find:  a) $P\{X&gt;0.5\}$  b) $Var(X)$    Second pattern:  $$ f(x) = \begin{cases}   {cx^4} &amp;  {0\lt x \lt 2} \\   0 &amp; \text{else}   \end{cases} $$  Where c is a constant. Find:  a) Mean value of $X$  b) Variance of $X$     Third pattern (it's more like a reverse problem):  We are given $Y= \sqrt{X}$, find it's cumulative distribution function (CDF) and  it's probability density function (pdf).    Update:  The third one is transferred to a .  This is not homework. I'm self-studying and in need of some help. Thank you. How to delete column/field in PyQGIS?
