Many people copies/pastes text/data from msword, actually into web forms.  The standart upper coma character is " ' " this but msword's upper coma is " ‘ " so that lead some problems like turning into "?" character after posting the data.  Is there any way to prevent this rather than using functions like string replacement or regular expressions ?
I'm setting up a new server and want to support UTF-8 fully in my web application. I have tried this in the past on existing servers and always seem to end up having to fall back to ISO-8859-1.  Where exactly do I need to set the encoding/charsets? I'm aware that I need to configure Apache, MySQL, and PHP to do this — is there some standard checklist I can follow, or perhaps troubleshoot where the mismatches occur?  This is for a new Linux server, running MySQL 5, PHP, 5 and Apache 2.

How to find previous boot log after Ubuntu 16.04+ restarts? My question is, how can I find boot log from previous system boot attempt?  Today when first powering on my PC, boot process stopped on Ubuntu logo, when I pressed Esc I have seen several lines containing some kernel error and restart required at the bottom, so I pressed Ctrl+ALt+Del and next boot went OK without problems.  I have trouble finding messages from the screen I have seen during the first unsuccessful boot. Should I have taken picture to my phone?  /var/log/boot is there but empty, I searched  and  for strings I remembered with today's date like error but found nothing familiar to what I have seen on previous boot screen.  $ journalctl -b -1 gives me only kernel messages during boot, I can find that elsewhere too, and they are not what was appearing on screen during boot, journalctl is useless for me, I am looking for messages appearing on screen during boot time.  For now, only option is take a photo of write the message on paper. Prove that $\lim_{N\rightarrow\infty}(1/N)\sum_{n=1}^N f(nx)=\int_{0}^1f(t)dt$ Suppose $f$ is continuous and periodic on the reals with period 1. Prove that if $x\in[0,1]$ is an irrational number, then  $$\lim_{N\rightarrow\infty}\frac{1}{N}\sum_{n=1}^N f(nx)=\int_{0}^1f(t)dt$$   Suggestion: First consider $f(t) = e^{2\pi(ikt)}$ where k is an integer.   I can see that this is a limit of a weighted average, but the suggestion throws me off. I've seen the suggestion in fourier transforms but it's not clicking at the moment. Any help would be welcome. What to do with sudden wealth? Ramsey Number Inequality: $R(\underbrace{3,3,...,3,3}_{k+1}) \le (k+1)(R(\underbrace{3,3,...3}_k)-1)+2$ I want to prove that:  $$R(\underbrace{3,3,...,3,3}_{k+1}) \le (k+1)(R(\underbrace{3,3,...3}_k)-1)+2$$  where R is a Ramsey number. In the LHS, there are $k+1$ $3$'s, and in the RHS, there are $k$ $3's$. I really have no clue how to start this proof. Any help is appreciated! Quad tree vs Grid based collision detection I added two torus objects, and when I click one of them, it also selects the other. They both share the same node thing. I want to delete one of them, but it keeps on deleting the other with it. I can't even undo placing the second torus without removing the other. Imputation before or after splitting into train and test? What is the cause of this sudden drop in CV queue size? At Sat, 30 Nov 2013 14:51:01 GMT, there was a sudden drop in the close votes review queue size from 98932 to 98314. This is about 600 questions over the course of one minute.  It doesn't seem like a routine cleanup script. If it was, this is a very odd time for it to run. Also, the drop occurred over the span of a minute, so it's highly unlikely there was simply increased review activity. So, I ask: What was its cause?         (yes please don't shoot me I know my freehand circle is blue) (it's actually a dark teal look again) (the source for this script I  (slightly modified), found through  post)  Raw data:  Epoch time  CV Size 1385822821  98932 1385822881  98932 1385822941  98932 1385823001  98932 *** 1385823061  98932 *** 1385823121  98314     [author's note: the difference between iterations is 60 seconds] 1385823181  98314 1385823241  98314 1385823301  98314 1385823361  98314 Let $u:\mathbb{C}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ be a harmonic function such that $0\leq u(z)$ for all $ z \in \mathbb{C}$.

Running Fedora-13 This is a very simple question but I believe it's nontrivial.  I would like to know if the following is true:      If $R$ and $S$ are rings and $R[x]$ and $S[x]$ are isomorphic as rings, then $R$ and $S$ are isomorphic.    Thanks!  If there isn't a proof (or disproof) of the general result, I would be interested to know if there are particular cases when this claim is true. When there are too many linked questions to fit in the sidebar, it shows a link to &quot;see more linked questions...&quot;. Clicking on this link takes you to a front-page type showing only the linked questions. You can then use the tabs to sort by &quot;active&quot; to show the most recently active linked questions. However, the gray popup that appears when new questions are posted shows up for any recent activity, not just activity on the linked questions. Clicking through then updates the list, appending more questions to the top of the list, regardless of whether or not they're linked to the question at hand. To reproduce:  Go to  Wait for activity  Screenshots:   Now obviously this isn't a show-stopper, but I thought it might be worth mentioning.  Update June 2020 This is still relevant.  While sitting on the &quot;linked questions&quot; page for a specific question - in the above screenshot,  - and sorted by newest, when a new question is asked the &quot;1 question with new activity&quot; banner will show up, even if that new question does not link back to the question that you were on. Is explicitly closing files important? How to avoid being prompted for a password by sudo? I know I can become root (super user) via the su command but I have to authorize it after entering the commands. Is there a way I can become root and authorize (with password) in one line What is the motivation for including the compactness and semi-simplicity assumptions on the groups that one gauges to obtain Yang-Mills theories?  I'd think that these hypotheses lead to physically "nice" theories in some way, but I've never, even from a computational perspective. really given these assumptions much thought. Increasing the size of the memory: not all files are built successfully I am trying to compile a large file which contains a tikz picture with more data points than tex can handle.  Following the questions  and  I set to increase the capacity of tex by changing the file texmf.cnf in my path /usr/local/texlive/2012. I included the line  main_memory = 10000000   and on terminal I run  sudo fmtutil-sys --all   The problem is that this memory is not enough, and numbers bigger than that don't finish the fmtutil run properly. I get the error   fmtutil: Error! Not all formats have been built successfully.   To give a better idea of where the problem is coming from, if I only include in the file texmf.cnf the lines  main_memory.latex = 15000000 main_memory.pdflatex = 15000000   then these are the files which are not properly built:  This is a summary of all `failed' messages: `pdftex -ini  -jobname=latex -progname=latex -translate-file=cp227.tcx *latex.ini' failed `pdftex -ini  -jobname=pdflatex -progname=pdflatex -translate-file=cp227.tcx *pdflatex.ini' failed   How can I increase the size of the memory beyond 10000000? Am I doing anything wrong?  (BTW, I am running texlive 2012 on a mac) How to boot from a USB drive in VirtualBox? The question is simple and straight forward:  How to boot from an USB drive in VirtualBox?  EDIT:  I have attached usb to VirtualBox as shown in the screenshot.    But it is not possible to boot from an USB drive even when attached  .  So I would like to know if there is any other possiblity to boot from an USB drive?
