I want to install Skype, but I can't locate it in Software Center or by using Synaptic Package Manager. Can anyone help me?
The difference between with or without intercept model in logistic regression This code in JS gives me a popup saying "i think null is a number", which I find slightly disturbing. What am I missing?    if (isNaN(null)) {   alert("null is not a number"); } else {   alert("i think null is a number"); }     I'm using Firefox 3. Is that a browser bug?  Other tests:    console.log(null == NaN);   // false console.log(isNaN("text")); // true console.log(NaN == "text"); // false     So, the problem seems not to be an exact comparison with NaN?  Edit: Now the question has been answered, I have cleaned up my post to have a better version for the archive. However, this renders some comments and even some answers a little incomprehensible. Don't blame their authors. Among the things I changed was:   Removed a note saying that I had screwed up the headline in the first place by reverting its meaning Earlier answers showed that I didn't state clearly enough why I thought the behaviour was weird, so I added the examples that check a string and do a manual comparison. What is the relation between electromagnetic wave and photon? At the end of this nice video (), she says that  is a chain reaction of electric and magnetic fields creating each other so the chain of wave moves forward.  I wonder where the  is in this explanation. What is the relation between electromagnetic wave and photon? Is it costly to do array.length or list.count in a loop I know that in JavaScript, creating a for loop like this: for(int i = 0; i &lt; arr.length; i++) is costly as it computes the array length each time. Is this behavior costly in c# for lists and arrays as well. Or at compile-time is it optimized?  Also what about other languages such as Java, how is this handled? Should I be concerned that the sill plate is not lined up with the foundation? I am in the process of building a one level home in PA. After the formed concrete walls were poured and the framing began, I noticed that on one side of the house that the sill plate was flush with the edge of the foundation wall in the rear, but, by the time the sill plate got to the front it was 2 1/2" away from the edge of the foundation wall. In summary, the sill plate walks from flush with the foundation wall at the rear to 2 1/2" at the front. This happens over about a 50' run.  Any thoughts or concerns would be appreciated. Any recommendations on what sorts of questions to ask when I meet the site supervisor on Monday? I occasionally update my kernel from this web site    I have been always downloading 3 deb files for installing  linux header all, linux image and linux headers. I noticed one more deb file recently for 64 bit kernel called Linux-image-extra.  I would like to know what does kernel file Linux-image-extra do and should I also install it? "Above"/"below" before/after a noun Use of inequality $1 - \cos (x) \leq x^2 /2$ In  answer the value of $1 - \cos(x)$ has to be evaluated in order to find its upper limit, if it exists.  In particular, $x = 2 \pi / n$. The answer is related to the length of a side of a regular $n$-gon inscribed into a unit-radius circumference; because the perimeter of the $n$-gon is always less than $2 \pi$, the single side must always be less than $2 \pi / n$.  The inequality  $$1 - \cos (x) \leq \displaystyle \frac{x^2}{2}$$ (1)  is used and the proof is completed with   $$2(1 - \cos(x)) \leq (2 \pi / n)^2$$  $$\sqrt{2(1 - \cos(x))} \leq 2 \pi / n$$  But it is well known that the cosine is a function $f(x) \in [-1;1]$, so $1 - \cos (x) \in [0,2]$. By using this information, we would obtain  $$1 - \cos (x) \leq 2$$ (2)  The proof would provide  $$2(1 - \cos(x)) \leq 4$$  $$\sqrt{2(1 - \cos(x))} \leq 2$$  which is a completely different result.   Why in that case it is preferable to use (1) instead of (2)? How to choose when it is convenient to use (1) and when to use (2) in a proof? Is there an integer $N>0$ such that $\varphi(n) = N$ has infinitely many solutions? Let $\varphi: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ be the totient function.   Is there an integer $N &gt; 0$ such that there are infinitely many integers $n &gt; 0$ such that $$\varphi(n) = N?$$ How do I backup my Ubuntu Phone? vim-clang-format: clang-format is not found Intuitively, why does (B → S) ≡ (¬B ∨ S)? I pursue only intuition; please do not answer with  or . I comprehend the following explanation, but it still does not supply the intuition and I sense a deeper, directer, more intuitive explanation. So how else can I intuit this? Or have I neglected something below? I rewrote: p 51-52.  (2010 2 ed) by Henle, Garfield, Tymoczko.    If the kid misbehaves and the teacher forces him to stay, then the teacher spoke truthfully. Suppose the kid misbehaves but travels. Then clearly the teacher lied. But what if the kid misbehaves, but a big snowstorm forces the trip’s cancellation? You can’t say the teacher lied. The kid behaved but didn’t go; nobody went. The teacher spoke truthfully. 1. If the kid behaved and travels, the teacher spoke truthfully.  Notice that the pattern of Ts and Fs we get, is the pattern for disjunction (see p. 38).

Luggage transfer in Dubai between flights, without a visa I am traveling from Stockholm to Dubai and Dubai to Nairobi using two different airlines.

I make heavy use of screen's "log" command to log the output of a session to a file, when I am making changes in a given environment. I searched through tmux's man page, but couldn't find an equivalent. Is anyone aware of a similar feature in tmux, or do I have to write my own wrapper scripts to do this?  EDIT: I'm aware of 'script' and other utilities that allow me to log a session. The reason that screen's functionality is so useful is the ability to define a logfile variable which uses string escapes to uniquely identify each session.  e.g. I have a shell function which, given a hostname, will SSH to that host in a new screen window and set the window title to the hostname. When I start a log of that session, it is prefixed with the window title.  If this functionality doesn't exist in tmux, I'll have to create a new set of shell functions to set up 'scripts' of sessions I want to log. This isn't hugely difficult, but it may not be worth the effort given that screen does exactly what I need already. Would Gollum qualify, as a Ringbearer, to go to the Undying Lands?
