I get a lot from Stack Overflow, I want to contribute to others' questions too, but numerous .net, html questions come to the front page, while what I am good at is c and linux. How to filter those questions and just show questions related to my favorite tags?
What are watched tags and ignored tags? How do they work? What are tag subscriptions? What are interesting tags? On Stack Overflow, the content of the main page question list appears to be influenced by watched and ignored tags. How does that work?   For more information, see &quot;&quot; in the .

Get referenced node fields in twig Does English have any singularia tantum besides mass nouns? and  are, respectively, nouns that have only a singular form and nouns that have only a plural form.  In English, we have a handful of pluralia tantum that are mass nouns which take the plural form (e.g. "riches" and "remains"), a whole load of pluralia tantum that refer to things that come in pairs (e.g. "trousers", "sunglasses", "knickers", or "scissors"), and at least one plurale tantum that fits into neither of the above categories ("clothes", meaning multiple items of clothing - it's clear what the hypothetical singular "clothe" would mean, yet it mysteriously isn't a word). Singularia tantum, on the other hand, seem less varied. As far as I can tell, they are all  - things like "information", "milk", and "racism".  One can imagine there being a singulare tantum that is not a mass noun. For example, we can imagine an alternate universe in which it is still correct English to talk about "a dog", but talking about "dogs" in the plural is incorrect and funny in the same way that it is incorrect and funny to talk about a "scissor". It might seem unintuitive to think that such a noun even could exist - surely, if it is not a mass noun, then people would just pluralise it with an "s" on the end like most other words? But the converse argument could just as well be made about countable pluralia tantum, and I still cannot go to a shop and buy a "clothe". Hence my question: do we have any such countable singularia tantum in the language? Have we in the past? Terms for collections of animals As I watched the murder of crows sitting on the line above my house this evening, I got wondering where all of the collective nouns for animals (pod of whales, gaggle of geese, pride of lions) came from and why we need so many.    If sheep can be a flock, why can't whales, geese, lions, and crows? SQL Server, convert a named instance to default instance? I need to convert a named instance of SQL server 2005, to a default instance.  Is there a way to do this without a reinstall?    The problem is, 2 out of 6 of the developers, installed with a named instance. So its becoming a pain changing connection strings for the other 4 of us. I am looking for the path of least resistance to getting these 2 back on to our teams standard setup.    Each has expressed that this is going to be, too much trouble and that it will take away from their development time. I assumed that it would take some time to resolve, in the best interest of all involved, I tried combing through configuration apps installed and didn't see anything, so I figured someone with more knowledge of the inner workings would be here. I already know that if groups $G,H,K$ are finitely generated abelian groups, following is true.  If $G\times K$ is isomorphic to $H\times K$, then $G$ is isomorphic to $H$. I prove this by uniquness of factorization of finitely generated abelian groups.  My questions are   If group $G$ is finite,$G\times K$ is isomorphic to $H\times K$, then $G$ is isomorphic to $H$? Can you give me a easiest proof and it can be proved by projection function on external direct product? If $G,H,K$ are groups.  If $G\times K$ is isomorphic to $H\times K$, then $G$ is isomorphic to $H$. This statement is false. What is a counterexample?   *$\times$ is external direct product How OPTIONS are settled can be an eye opener and I hope I can get some answers The only reason why I put it here is to find out whether I am a victim or just ignorant of the way brokers deal with option positions that were exercised. Whether I am a victim or just ignorant depends on the answer that I posted here. The facts are: I had a 2 SHORT QS Option at 75 which was exercised against me on the 23 Dec 00.45 AM and I later exercised my 2 LONG QS Option at 70 on 23 Dec 9.31 AM. The broker charged me Borrow Fee for 24-27 Dec for $1102, which means instead of getting $1000 profit I turn this into a loss of $102 plus comm. My question:  Since both long and short options were exercised on the same day one at 45 mins on 23 Dec and the later at 9.31 am on the same day, how can there be a SHORT POSITION in the stocks since both are net-off in my account ?  The answer I got from my broker and this is the point that I want to clarify.  The response I got from IB was that the initial exercise at 45 mins on 23 Dec was actually on 22 Dec (not 23 as I alleged). They refused to show me how they got 22 Dec.  This is my explanation to my Broker in reply.  Even if the short call and long call was exercised on different dates 22 and 23 Dec respectively, IB can only charge me for the SHORT position for one day and not from 24-27 Dec by ignoring my long call position was not there.  Further Facts:  My Broker ignored my answer and insisted the dates are correct and therefore I was charged to borrow shares that was need to satisfy the short position on exercised. So I am lost as I do not know whether the broker is correct and they can do this by ignoring my long call position after exercised or there is something they had not tell me. That is the reason I came to this site soliciting answers from those who know more than I do or had experienced the same.  I hope I have explained this clearly now and why would I want to give an opinion when I am looking for an answer ? How to load JAR files dynamically at Runtime? Why is it so hard to do this in Java? If you want to have any kind of module system you need to be able to load JAR files dynamically. I'm told there's a way of doing it by writing your own ClassLoader, but that's a lot of work for something that should (in my mind at least) be as easy as calling a method with a JAR file as its argument.  Any suggestions for simple code that does this? Is Meta Stack Overflow just the meta for Stack Overflow or is it a somewhat special meta site? Initially I thought that Meta Stack Overflow was the common meta for all SE sites.   Then I noted that  has its own meta site.   It took a while for me to learn that even Server Fault has its own meta site.  Looking at my reputation points, I see difference between Stack Overflow and Meta Stack Overflow, but not between the other sites and there corresponding meta sites.  Now, is Meta Stack Overflow in some sense the master meta site of all or not? How fast does gravity propagate? Can a player character use the Misty Step spell to bring another character or creature with them when they teleport? I am an Eladrin elf and have the ability to use the misty step spell to teleport with my clothing and items. However, can I grapple a party member (or NPC or other creature) and use the misty step spell to bring them with me when I teleport? Would they have to be willing? Is there a way to force a line break inside a math mode text?  My example:  \[   \underbrace{....}_\text{Some long text that should be multiline} \]   Trying  \text{Some long text that\\ should be multiline}   Didn't do the trick.
