So I came across an , screenshot shown below, for this .    I felt that this answer really wasn't an answer, so I raised a "it is not an answer" flag, but that flag was disputed, but it's apparent that there are others that feel the same way as I do.  So my question is why was my flag disputed?  I just want to get some perspective on this so I can better understand what really constitutes an answer and what doesn't.  And if this shouldn't have been disputed, well then obviously my flag should be corrected and the answer removed.  Don't know if it's worth mentioning, I have nothing against Jeff Yates, just doing my part to help keep the boards following the established guidelines.  Cheers.
In my flagging summary under the statistics, there is 1 flag listed as "disputed".  This is the first time I've ever seen a disputed flag in my summary, so I'm just curious, what is a disputed flag? How would you even dispute a flag? Is this the same as voting a flag as invalid?
How can I switch a 32-bit installation to a 64-bit one? I've got a 32-bit Ubuntu installation running on 64-bit hardware. Now that , I would like to switch to 64-bit without having to reinstall the OS.  This is one of the :  Shawn installed his system using the 32-bit version of Ubuntu, but his hardware is 64-bit and he wants to switch over. He manually installs the amd64 versions of dpkg and apt, replacing the i386 versions and changing which architecture is used as the default; then he installs the amd64 ubuntu-minimal package; then he installs the amd64 ubuntu-desktop package. Over time the remaining i386 packages are replaced automatically on upgrade.  However, when trying to follow the instructions in there, I cannot find any 64-bit version of dpkg or apt.  Did this user story got implemented in a different way in the final spec, or do I need to do something differently?  In short, how can I switch my 32-bit installation to 64-bit? Are Variable Operators Possible? Java generics super keyword What is the best way to add options to a select from a JavaScript object with jQuery? Complete list of Lollipop system icons shown in notification bar? Is there a complete list of these? I've seen lots of Q&amp;A about "What does x icon mean" but it would be really useful if there were a complete list for reference! Is there a proper way to handle large combat engagements with party members involved? For instance, a party of four player characters raise a force of 30 militia men to go take a bandit camp. When they get there the bandit camp has 40 men, and none of them notable.  For the sake of simplicity, both the 30 men and the 40 bandits are armed with long swords, and wearing leather armor.   Is there a proper way to handle combat between the 30 man militia and the 40 bandits while also incorporating our four player characters? If no "proper" way exists, is there a generally accepted "best" way? CSV text files loading error / crash in QGIS 2.18.8 I got a problem when I try to load tab-separated text files in the "Create a layer from the delimited text file" tab (that one with de comma symbol). After normally selecting the X and Y fields and clicking OK, the reference coordinate system (SRC) selector screen appears, then the program closes by itself. I had uploaded more than a hundred of this type of file by the same procedure in the previous version of QGIS (2.14 Essen) and have no problem, but since I updated to version 2.18.8 (Las Palmas) I can not load any files or .CSV type.   Do anyone knows what's happening? Am I doing anything wrong? Merge two arrays as key value pairs in PHP I've got two arrays of the same size.  I'd like to merge the two so the values of one are the key indexes of the new array, and the values of the new array are the values of the other.  Right now I'm just looping through the arrays and creating the new array manually, but I have a feeling there is a much more elegant way to go about this.  I don't see any array functions for this purpose, but maybe I missed something?  Is there a simple way to this along these lines?  $mapped_array = mapkeys($array_with_keys, $array_with_values); Why would Louise telling the Chinese commander about his wife's last words change his mind? In the future in Arrival, the commander says that he changed his mind about going to war with the aliens because Louise called his private number and told him his wife's dying words. My question is what did Louise say to him (like in English) and why did it change his mind? How to specify an arbitrary (possibly non-integer) font size in LaTeX I may be wrong, but it seems to me that I cannot obtain non-integer (or non-preloaded) font sizes (say, 9.876pt) using \fontsize.  If this is true, how do I do this in LaTeX?  Do I have to resort to the \font ... at ... primitive?  (The reason I need this is that I'd like to implement a more LaTeXy way to do the \diminuendo macro from .) "Which" vs. "what" — what's the difference and when should you use one or the other? How to bottle your own homemade salad dressing Why was "An Update to our Community and an Apology" deleted? Recently, Sara Chipps posted her message . After reading it, I wanted to compare it with . It turns out that she deleted it. Does anyone know why? It looks strange since (as far as remember) it was a sort of official position of SE. Why would such a statement be deleted? How is MSE divided by $\sigma^2$ always a chi-square distribution? Why does this not work with an imaginary exponent? Convert audio stream to WAV byte array in Java without temp file Given an InputStream called in which contains audio data in a compressed format (such as MP3 or OGG), I wish to create a byte array containing a WAV conversion of the input data. Unfortunately, if you try to do this, JavaSound hands you the following error:  java.io.IOException: stream length not specified   I managed to get it to work by writing the wav to a temporary file, then reading it back in, as shown below:  AudioInputStream source = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(in, 1024)); AudioInputStream pcm = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(AudioFormat.Encoding.PCM_SIGNED, source); AudioInputStream ulaw = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(AudioFormat.Encoding.ULAW, pcm); File tempFile = File.createTempFile("wav", "tmp"); AudioSystem.write(ulaw, AudioFileFormat.Type.WAVE, tempFile); // The fileToByteArray() method reads the file // into a byte array; omitted for brevity byte[] bytes = fileToByteArray(tempFile); tempFile.delete(); return bytes;   This is obviously less desirable. Is there a better way? Every power series is the Taylor series of some $C^{\infty}$ function There is a sentence:     No sooner had he sat down than he fell asleep.   I just do not understand, is this an inversion? And if so, I still do not understand the sentence. I am using gedit text editor with embedded terminal in ubuntu 12.04. I'm trying to search for some text using grep. I want to search for this line of code   'type' =&gt; 'select'   I tried:  grep -r '\'type\' =&gt; \'select\''  But grep didn't return any results.  So can someone kindly tell me how to search for the code above? How can I verify the following statement?     The image of a morphism $f : A \longrightarrow B$ is defined as $\text{Im}(f) = \text{Ke}r(\text{coke}r f)$ whenever it exists (e.g., in every abelian category). The morphism $f : A \longrightarrow B$ factors   uniquely through $\text{Im} f \longrightarrow B$ whenever $\text{Im} f$ exists, and $A \longrightarrow \text{Im} f$ is an epimorphism and a cokernel of ker $f \longrightarrow A$ in every abelian category.
