How to Mine w/ 5+ Graphics Cards on Gigabyte 990FXA UD5 (Ubuntu 13.10) What is the specific process by which to properly set up 5 or more graphics cards for litecoin mining on the Gigabyte 990FXA UD5 or other motherboards running Ubuntu 13.10?
Mining cryptocurrencies with Ubuntu and sgminer What are the steps for setting up a Ubuntu machine for mining of crypto-currencies?  I am looking for a full guide to follow - from installing Ubuntu to how to config and start the miner itself.
Today, we had a math class, where we had to show, that $a_{100} &gt; 14$ for  $$a_0 = 1;\qquad a_{n+1} = a_n + a_n^{-1}$$  Apart from this task, I asked myself: Is there a closed form for this sequence? Since I didn't find an answer by myself, can somebody tell me, whether such a closed form exists, and if yes what it is? I have a layer of georeferenced points, and a layer of vectorized borders. Is there a way I can use QGIS to calculate how many points fall within each area of the borders layer? Why can't certain programs (like readlink) take input from a pipe? Some areas of the mesh are dark (Shadow artefacts) I've been modeling a hermit crab and I don't know why but some areas of the mesh are really dark on some spots, like the legs and the claws.   I hope you can help me fix it. I would like to see a breakdown of reputation by post type on the user summary page.    This would help show, at a glance, how much someone actually knows vs. how good they are at asking questions.  For instance:     Reputation from Questions - 10,015 from 1024 posts   Reputation from Answers - 110 from 11 posts   Reputation from Edits - 400 from 1000 edits     I would take any answers the above person gave me with a grain of salt instead of assuming they were knowledgeable because they have 10k rep.  We already have a multitude of other readouts on the new page, so this shouldn't up the clutter factor too much either. How can I retrieve data within my widget I have a Widget which I am creating but my quesiton is how do I access my custom table which I created via my plugin. I am attempting to fill the dropdown from the table called tfp which contains the column liters which I wish to popluate the values into the drop down   class my_plugin extends WP_Widget {  // constructor function my_plugin() {         parent::WP_Widget(false, $name = __('Thomsons Fuels Widget', 'wp_widget_plugin') );  }  // widget form creation function form($instance) {  //Check values if( $instance) {  $title = esc_attr($instance['title']);  $dropdown= esc_attr($instance['dropdown']);  $textarea = $instance['textarea'];  } else {  $title = '';  $textarea = ''; } ?&gt;   &lt;p&gt; &lt;label for="&lt;?php echo $this-&gt;get_field_id('dropdown'); ?&gt;"&gt; &lt;?php _e('Liters',   'wp_widget_plugin'); ?&gt;&lt;/label&gt; &lt;select&gt; &lt;option value="volvo"&gt;Volvo&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;   How I created the table in the plugin   global $wpdb; global $custom_table_example_db_version;  $table_name = $wpdb-&gt;prefix .

Schengen Visa Refusal: Justification for the purpose and conditions of the intended stay was not reliable Schengen refusal formulae can be difficult to understand sometimes.  Sometimes an applicant receives a refusal with:       Justification for the purpose and conditions of the intended stay was not reliable.     often accompanied by:       Your intention to leave the territory of the Member States before the expiry of the visa applied for could not be ascertained.   What is meant by this refusal reason?  What are they trying to say? The StackExchange™ MultiCollider SuperDropdown™ says I've got replies, but I've already viewed those My earliest PhD graduation date is 10 months away. Funding permits me to stay 1–3 months longer, so the final date is still uncertain.  It is never too early to make contacts for possible post-docs. But how long in advance is too early to formally apply to post-doc job openings or funding opportunities? Depending on the bureaucracy, the path from applying to starting can probably be anything from a week up to a year — someone I know is applying with  which had the opening advertised in August, application deadline in October, will have interviews in December/January, and the commencement of work only in September, 13 months after the initial job advertisement. My personal guess is that the long time between interviews and starting is to create a level playing field between those who do and those who don't need to go through a visa application procedure.  If I'm too early in applying for a post-doc, a hosting institution might prefer someone who can start earlier and where the graduation date is more certain. For example, in my case the graduation date is still uncertain, so there is a risk in accepting even if they are willing to wait. Project funding might also require the money to be spent rather soon.  If I wait too long, there might be a considerable period where I'm between jobs. Having a long (>6 months) period between jobs is a disadvantage for me. Maybe it's also a disadvantage for a hosting institution (I'm not sure).  How do I find the balance? For example, considering the duration of funding and visa applications, does it make sense to apply e.g. ? Or is it in any case virtually inevitable to have at least several months before my PhD graduation and the start of a post-doc? velocity of an object after leaving a ramp Convergence of $\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\left\{ 1-n\log \frac {2n+1} {2n-1}\right\} $ What is the difference between a tatkal and premium tatkal ticket in Indian Railways? How large is it possible for a PC to get?  For clarity, here are my parameters:   This is about size categories, not 'feet' or 'inches' or 'meters' or any other precise measurement. This is about Medium to Large to Huge to Gargantuan categories.  This is for an NPC charlatan using this to trick people. (It's an NPC but will have a full PC sheet, so the distinction between PC and NPC doesn't matter). Any means of size category enlargement works for this purpose, including magic spells, magic items, etc. Illusions do not count because it's about actually becoming larger, not just casting an illusion of a gargantuan giant version of yourself.  The character must remain the same physical structure. Polymorphing into a Gargantuan Dragon would not satisfy the need here. Consumable items are fine. This does not need to be permanent. I am trying to understand model vs. interpretation of sentences vs. theories, with respect to a propositional calculus.  Is a model of a wff just a sentence that is true under some interpretation?   Or a set of wffs that are all true under some interpretation?   Or when an interpretation satisfies a wff (or set of wffs)?   Does it make sense to say that an interpretation is a model if all valid propositions are true? Or an interpretation being a model iff all theorems from the theory are still valid under the interpretation? How to determine an object's class? In the last 30 years, human technology has developed massively.  Every year a new smartphone is released with a faster processor, more memory, better features.  Why hasn't the same level of progress happened in the Star Wars universe?  In The Phantom Menace, we see a number of droids - R2 units, C-3PO, Pit Droids, etc.  In Return of the Jedi - the droids we see pretty much have the same capabilities.  I would have thought that technology would still be progressing in the Star Wars universe - but it appears to have stopped.  During wars on Earth, our technology capabilities grow - so it can't just be the effect of a massive war which is causing the stagnation of development.  So, what gives? Stopping resetting of linked locators in manipulate Windows shortcut (.lnk) parser in Java? I'm currently using Win32ShellFolderManager2 and ShellFolder.getLinkLocation to resolve windows shortcuts in Java. Unfortunately, if the Java program is running as a service under Vista, getLinkLocation, this does not work. Specifically, I get an exception stating "Could not get shell folder ID list".  Searching the web does turn up mentions of this error message, but always in connection with JFileChooser. I'm not using JFileChooser, I just need to resolve a .lnk file to its destination.  Does anyone know of a 3rd-party parser for .lnk files written in Java I could use?  I've since found unofficial documentation for the .lnk format , but I'd rather not have to do the work if anyone has done it before, since the format is rather scary. I have complicated math expression:    Vertical spacing between text and fraction line is too small. I tried to define new \frac command (with amsmath package) with adjustable vertical spaces.
