I made a light beam, very similar to this: , but for some reason I can't render it. If I switch to rendered view mode, I see everything in place, but when I render it, there's nothing in place of the beam, except for some lighter and yellower rain drops. on the top half, you can see 3d rendered view mode, on the bottom half, you can see actual rendered image. I have checked in outliner, that everything should render (which is also visible from the image). Here is my nodesetup:  I am using cycles render.
Bit of an issue here, trying to render this glass scene    Looks fine in the viewport, but when I hit render    Does anyone know the cause of different view port and final render, and how to fix it?  Here's my
Express $\sqrt{3}\sin\theta - \cos\theta$ as: $a\cos (\theta + \alpha) $ Express $\sqrt{3}\sin\theta - \cos\theta$ as: $a\cos (\theta + \alpha) $  Can someone please explain to me how to go about doing this? "media change: please insert the disc labeled" when trying to install Ruby on Rails I have iterate over numbers in various order. I am able to display them in increasing order, even with steps like:  $ seq --separator="," 1 10 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 $ seq --separator="," 1 2 10 1,3,5,7,9   I am also able to display them in reverse order, neither continuous nor step wise.  $ seq --separator="," 10 1    $ seq --separator="," 10 2 1   No output for above commands.

Many a time I've asked what the difference is between an analogy and a metaphor. I've asked it to my teacher, on internet sites, to my parents, so on and so forth. I got a different answer every time, and I never fully grasped what the difference is, so what is the difference? Zero probability and impossibility I read a comment under :     There are plenty of events that can occur that have zero probability.   This reminds me that I have seen similar saying before elsewhere, and have never been able to make sense out of it. So I was wondering    if zero probability and impossibility mean the same? if an event with zero probability doesn't mean that the event is impossible to occur, how probability theory represents/describes impossibility?   Thanks and regards! I have the following query:  select column_name, count(column_name) from table group by column_name having count(column_name) &gt; 1;   What would be the difference if I replaced all calls to count(column_name) to count(*)?  This question was inspired by .    To clarify the accepted answer (and maybe my question), replacing count(column_name) with count(*) would return an extra row in the result that contains a null and the count of null values in the column. Some guy called one of my Snipplr submissions "crap" because I used if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') instead of if ($_POST)  Checking the request method seems more correct to me because that's what I really want to do. Is there some operational difference between the two or is this just a code clarity issue? Showing range on hexagonal grid Here is the situation.  I have hexagonal board,and a unit on it,with speed or move value 4.Diffrent terrain has a diffrent cost.When i click on the unit,game should show me a move range.  My solution was to check each  hex in range of 4,with A* pathfinding,and if path cost was less than 4 then this hex was in range.Finally game nicely show me range of that unit.  My question is:   Is there other solution to search for range on hex grids or square grid,because even if i am really proud of what i did in my solution,i think,it is a little to exaggerated?:))  What make me ask this question?I noticed that when unit speed is 4 or 6 or even 8,time to computing range for my computer was really good,but when speed was 10 and more i noticed that i needed to wait few second to compute.Well in real games i rather dont see something like this and my A* pathfinding is rather well optimized,so im thinking that my solution is wrong.  Thanks for any replies. Update Windows 10 to 1809 manually Should one ask generic or specific question? Let's assume that one has some problems with coding or designing specific project. Should one ask general question about techniques, algorithms, generic problem (anonymising the project references), or should one ask about specific problem in specific problem? Or perhaps something in between?  Example:   generic: Cross-browser implementation of “HTTP Streaming” (push) AJAX pattern specific: How to implement AJAX-y 'incremental blame' view in gitweb (git web interface in Perl)?   If one should ask generic questions, how to anonymise problem? If one should ask specific question, how avoid 'homework' syndrome? cin>> not work with getline() The opening sentence to The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien reads,     In a hole in the ground there lived [verb] a hobbit [subject].   I wonder if there are accepted stylistic purposes for such a structure.  When is it natural, and when is it unnatural? I need to install more applications - can I use my external HD (samsung T5) and add an additional applications folder? I have loads of space on it and it the speeds are great. The shellscript is very simple:  retroarch $* -c /tmp/retroarch/Data/retroarch/gambatte.cfg   ("retroarch" is another shellscript)  If the filename passed contains spaces it fails:  RetroArch [ERROR] :: Could not read ROM file. Proof about Graph with no triangle Lightning Web Component embedded in Visualforce Page via Aura Component and App not displaying I am writing a lightning web component that is going to be used in Salesforce Classic, Lightning Experience and an Employee Community. It does not HAVE to be a lightning web component - I could use a traditional Aura Lightning Component if I must.   However, what I am finding is that the visualforce page does not work, even when the lwc component is embedded in a aura component that is then used with Lightning Components for Visualforce. I can see from the documentation  that using a lwc directly from within visualforce is not supported, but I was under the impression that it may work if wrapped in an aura component.   My question then is this:  Has anyone had success having a lwc wrapped in an aura component display successfully within Visualforce? Or is this completely unsupported behaviour? Proving that $f(x) = g(x)$ for some $x \in [a,b]$ if $f,g$ continuous, $f(a)  g(b)$ Suppose $f$ and $g$ are continuous on $[a,b]$ and that $f(a) &lt; g(a)$ but $f(b) &gt; g(b)$.   Prove that $f(x) = g(x)$ for some $x \in [a,b]$.     I did try and actually did get as far as coming up with $f-g$. Would I set $h(x)= f(x)- g(x)$ and say $h(a) &lt;x&lt; h(b)$?
