How to install Ubuntu on a Mac with M1 processor? I am looking for a detailed instructions to install Ubuntu on a Mac with the new ARM based M1 processor, in particular the Mac Mini.
Will my device work with Ubuntu? I have a device on which I would like to install Ubuntu. How do I find out if Ubuntu will work on it?
Why isn't there a centre of charge? When determining the gravitational attraction between 2 solid bodies, we can simplify computations by taking their masses to be concentrated at their respective centres of mass. However, had they been electrically charged bodies and we needed to compute electrostatic attraction, there is no "centre of charge" notion available to us. ( We would evaluate a 2-dimensional integral, or equivalently, apply Gauss's law. )  Is there any simple reason for the absence of such a centre of charge? Frequently, I've got the answer: "charge just doesn't work that way". I recently installed Ubuntu 14.04, then I installed lamp-server and placed my webpages in /var/www directory, but when I opened localhost in the browser there was nothing. I think that happened because Zend updated Apache.  Whatever the reason may be, I want to know where to keep my php files so that I can access them from my browser. If $X$ follows a Binomial distribution with parameters $n$ and $p$, what can we say on the distribution of $n\choose x$ and $x\choose n$ ? ($x$ is realization of $X$). Let $X_1, X_2, \ldots X_n$ be random variables with mean $\mu$ and variance $\sigma^2$. We define the sample mean $\bar{X} = \sum_{i = 1}^n X_i$.  I am having trouble understanding why the variance of $\bar{X}$ is $\sigma^2 / n$.  Here is what I worked out thus far:  $$\begin{gather} \sigma_\bar{X}^2 = E((\bar{X} - \mu)^2) = E(\bar{X}^2 - 2\bar{X}\mu + \mu^2) = E(\bar{X}^2) - 2\mu E(\bar{X}) + E(\mu^2) = E(\bar{X}^2) - \mu. \end{gather}$$  However, I'm not sure what to do with the $E(\bar{X}^2)$. Compute the integral $\int\frac{dx}{(x^2-x+1)\sqrt{x^2+x+1}}$ What is difference between have/get/make someone do something? I have a particular situation here, In March of 1997 I travelled to the US as a tourist and lived there illegally for almost 9 years. I was never arrested, or had any trouble with the law, I was never deported. I paid my taxed (had a TFN) had a job, bank account bought a house, etc. About 9 years ago I decided to leave as I was tired of living like that, not able to be legal, in fear of deportation and loosing everything. I also got married (to a person in the exact situation as me) we were able to legally migrate to Australia and now we are Australian citizens. We never returned our I-94s and in 2005 left through Mexico (walked through the border) so there are no records of us ever leaving. We have lived here in Australia for over 9 years.  OK so my question is... We have been thinking we would like to visit our friends and family back in the US now that we have a little girl. Is there any chance they won't let us in because they know we overstayed? We would be travelling with our Australian passports.

Injection from $\mathbb{N}\to\{0,1\}$ to the set of all monotonic decreasing functions from $\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{Z}$ How to highlight paragraph (linebreak preserving) as well as itemize, tabular etc.? I want to highlight changes which are introduced by myself in the pdf document. So far the soul package is very neat but it does throw errors when I want to highlight not only paragraphs but also some itemize environments, and I don't want to highlight the items separately. Also the \cite{...} command is not supported by \hl. I recently posted a slightly different question:   BTW: What I liked most over other approaches like pdfcomments etc. is that the \hl command from soul has a very exact and clear output, no icons, no clicking etc. involved. Together with todonotes it's very good and almost all I need. When I tried to install Matlab using the Software Center, it prompted me for the Location of MATLAB installation(s). Since I am trying to install it, I don't know what to do. How do I install a .tar.gz (or .tar.bz2) file? Why Did Dumbledore Let Harry Give the Remains of the Diary Horcrux to Dobby? J.K. Rowling confirms that Dumbledore knew the destroyed diary was the remains of a Horcrux;     JKR: "In essence divided," exactly, the "essence" being the soul. So Dumbledore knew all along that he must have- well, he suspected until Chamber of Secrets, and then at the point where he saw what was clearly the remains of a Horcrux, in other words, the diary, he thinks, "Okay. There you go. And not only has he definitely done it, but he's got to have more than one, because he's treated this one very casually."      Yet Dumbledore allows Harry to take this very dark magical artifact and return it to Lucius Malfoy (in order to free Dobby):     ‘Professor Dumbledore,’ he said hurriedly, ‘can I give that diary back to Mr Malfoy, please?’   ‘Certainly, Harry,’ said Dumbledore calmly. ‘But hurry. The feast, remember.’   Harry grabbed the diary and dashed out of the office.   Chamber of Secrets - page 248 - Bloomsbury - chapter 18, Dobby's Reward   Why did Dumbledore allow Harry to take the Horcrux before he had fully examined it, especially as Dumbledore knew it was a Horcrux? The Peverell ring had a lethal curse placed on it for anyone who tried to put the ring on. Why didn't Dumbledore check the diary for additional curses or Dark Magic before giving it to Harry? I would have thought Dumbledore would have wanted to keep whatever Horcrux relics he found.   Also, do we know what happened to the diary after Harry gave it back to Lucius Malfoy and Lucius threw it aside? Are there any instances in canon that place the diary back in Dumbledore's hands? I just updated from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04 and have an issue regarding the screen resolution. I have Intel integrated gfx chip and my monitor supports resolutions larger than 1024x768. (in 10.10 I've been using 1280x1024) But as soon as I upgraded, I'm stuck with 1024x768 resolution and seems I can't change it.  running xrandr In terminal yields the following results,   Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 4096 x 4096 LVDS1 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm    1280x800       58.1 +    1024x768       60.0*     800x600        60.3     56.2      640x480        59.9   VGA1 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 194mm    1366x768       59.9 +    1360x768       60.0      1024x768       75.1     72.0     70.1     60.0*     832x624        74.6      800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2      640x480        72.8     75.0     66.7     60.0      720x400        70.1     1280x1024_60.00 (0xce)  109.0MHz         h: width  1280 start 1368 end 1496 total 1712 skew    0 clock   63.7KHz         v: height 1024 start 1027 end 1034 total 1063           clock   59.9Hz   What maybe the problem?

UPDATE    Screenshot after running xrandr --addmode VGA1 1360x768  As you can see, side bar is not completely visible and Ubuntu logo at the task bar is missing. Also when you open an application, the Task bar of the application (where it should go to the top panel) is missing as well.. I have snippets of Html stored in a table. Not entire pages, no  tags or the like, just basic formatting.  I would like to be able to display that Html as text only, no formatting, on a given page (actually just the first 30 - 50 characters but that's the easy bit).  How do I place the "text" within that Html into a string as straight text?  So this piece of code.  &lt;b&gt;Hello World.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Is there anyone out there?&lt;/i&gt;&lt;p&gt;   Becomes:  Hello World. Is there anyone out there? Finding the missing digits of $23!$ HTML 5 Video stretch Field extensions with(out) a common extension Let $K$ be a field having two field extensions $L\supseteq K$ and $M\supseteq K$. Does there exist a field $N$ along with embeddings $L\to N$ and $M\to N$, such that the diagram $$     \require{AMScd} \begin{CD}     K @&gt;&gt;&gt; L\\     @V  V V @VV  V\\     M @&gt;&gt;&gt; N     \end{CD} $$ is commutative? To put it less formally, do $L$ and $M$ have a common field extension $N$ (with $K$ lying in the intersection)?  If yes, consider this side question (but do leave an answer even if you can only answer the main question!): Does the above property of fields generalise to the following, stronger property? Let $p$ be either $0$ or a prime number. Does there exist a sequence of fields $$ \mathbb F_p = L_0\subseteq L_1\subseteq L_2\subseteq L_3\subseteq L_4\subseteq\cdots$$ (where I use the convention $\mathbb F_0 = \mathbb Q$) such that any field $K$ of characteristic $p$ has an extension field among the $L_\alpha$? This sequence should be understood as enumerated by ordinal numbers. In other words, what I need is a function that assigns to each ordinal number $\alpha$ a field $L_\alpha$ containing all $L_\beta$ with $\beta &lt; \alpha$. (Intuitively, I suspect that this might depend on the Axiom of Choice.)  If the second property holds, it shows that you can essentially only extend a field in one "direction." It also shows that the class (it is obviously not a set) $\mathbb M_p = \bigcup_\alpha L_\alpha$ is a field (class). We can define all the usual field operations (addition, multiplication, division) here since all pairs of elements lie in $L_\alpha$ for a sufficiently large $\alpha$. This "monster field" of characteristic $p$ then contains all other set fields of that characteristic. How to get WordPress' hooks/actions run sequence?
