which is more grammatically correct to say on date 26/6 or in date 26/6 ?  I am using the on as a preposition and I feel not sure about that.
When writing dates in prose in the dmy format (29 March 2014), is the correct preposition "in" or "on". I'm seeing it with "in" , but that construction is foreign to me.     It was released in 29 March 2010 on Steam for Microsoft Windows, and in 25 March 2010 on Xbox Live Indie Games for the Xbox 360.    "On" would seem to make more sense, from what I know. Verdict?
When Ron broke his wand, why didn't he apply for Hogwarts financial aid? We know, from Book Six, that Hogwarts has a financial aid for students in need. It's supposed to cover all expenses regarding materials and school supplies, so it certainly covers wands. So why didn't Ron simply apply for this fund when he broke his wand in Book Two, since his family could not afford a new one?  Seems absurd that no teacher would notice that Ron had a broken wand and inform him there's a school fund. Plot hole?  Obs.: Even if Ron could afford a new wand, one could ask how we would purchase it (you must experiment personally to find a wand that chooses you). It turns out that there's a local branch of Ollivander in Hogsmeade. I'm sure that, under those circumstances, a second-year student like Ron would be allowed to visit Hogsmeade to purchase a new wand.

Here at Stack Exchange we're working on moving all traffic to SSL. The reason we're not doing logged-in-users only is that one side of the login divide would suffer a redirect from Google every time.  This happens because Google's only going to have http:// or https:// in the results, not both.  Aside from building the SSL infrastructure (), the outstanding question we have is: how do we best transition to SSL?  Here are the relevant bits of our plan (testing on small sites, moving up to stackoverflow.com):   Get SSL ready/enabled (but not linked to) on all domains Start rendering only the &lt;link rel="canonical"&gt; as https:// Start sending a 301 for all http:// requests to https:// (from our domains...of course we can't do anything about all the existing links pointing to us) After a transition period, set all user cookies as secure   So the endgame is having all content delivered over SSL and all HTTP requests redirected.  What we're primarily concerned with is how this will affect PageRank to our sites. We depend a great deal on traffic that comes from Google and want to ensure that doesn't take a dive as we start delivering more security to our users.  The only bits I've found on this that seem to be substantive are  on :     @Frank Yes, I'm certain that Google treats HTTP and HTTPS URLs as separate URLs for crawling, indexing and ranking (I work with the web-search team here at Google). Doing canonicalization with a 301 redirect like you mentioned is a great way to solve this :) –  Oct 23 '10   and the only webmasters video I could find:  The video doesn't have a solid answer, not one I'd base the future of a company on anyway.  Is our transition plan the best way to accomplish an SSL move, at least from an SEO perspective?  If there's other more recent or concrete advice around how a move like this affects Google ranking we'd love to hear about it. Other word for person who does something to others but does'nt like it done to them This is a duplicate question but has still not been answered for me. I'm so close to the exact word - I know there is one out there - but the closest word I can find is a hypocrite --     a person who claims to have certain moral principles or beliefs but behaves in a way that shows they are not sincere.    The word I'm looking for is a person who does not claim things, but does thing to another and they consider it wrong or immoral to have done to them. try+gerund/infinitive (Difference in meaning) I tried to open the door. I tried opening the door   We can use both infinitive and gerund with verb "try" as used in above sentences. Does it change the meaning of the  sentence if use gerund or infinitive?.(here i don't know if the meaning of sentences is changed.)     The same confusion arise in these two sentences.  1.I stopped seeing him. 2. I stopped to see him.(But in case of these two sentence i know the meaning is changed but don't know exactly what the change is). Why is __init__() always called after __new__()? I'm just trying to streamline one of my classes and have introduced some functionality in the same style as the .  However, I'm a bit confused as to why __init__ is always called after __new__. I wasn't expecting this. Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how I can implement this functionality otherwise? (Apart from putting the implementation into the __new__ which feels quite hacky.)  Here's an example:  class A(object):     _dict = dict()      def __new__(cls):         if 'key' in A._dict:             print "EXISTS"             return A._dict['key']         else:             print "NEW"             return super(A, cls).__new__(cls)      def __init__(self):         print "INIT"         A._dict['key'] = self         print ""  a1 = A() a2 = A() a3 = A()   Outputs:  NEW INIT  EXISTS INIT  EXISTS INIT   Why? How do I handle partially correct edits in the Suggested Edits review queue? Contradicting Instructions While going through the suggested edits review queue, one sometimes stumbles upon partially useful edits like . Trying to follow the instructions listed in the descriptions doesn't lead to a conclusive answer. Considering our example:   Approve edits that clearly improve the post ↳ No, not *clearly* Improve Edit when you can make additional improvements to the post ↳ I most definitively can Reject and Edit to replace an ineffective edit with your own substantive changes ↳ It is ineffective in the sense that it made the post worse overall (imho) Reject edits that fail to improve the post or that make it worse ↳ Like the last option: yes Skip if you are not sure and want to go to the next suggested edit ↳ Well, yes. But that is really why I am here, asking this question   Reasoning about the remaining Choices This leaves us with three choices: Improve Edit, Reject and Edit and Reject (the last one slightly modified):  Improve Edit  + Acknowledges that some things in the edit where correct - Learning effect for author might vanish, as the improvement might get overlooked - Can't leave a custom message for edit author (except in comments, which pollutes the thread) - Doesn't trigger the system which &quot;punishes&quot; users who repeatedly have their edits rejected - Rewards the edit author with reputation for a poor edit   Reject and Edit  + Clearly shows the author that there were problems with the edit - Still can't leave a custom message explaining the problems of the original post. - One has to partially redo parts of the edit that have just been rejected, which might feel unjust to the original editor   Reject with a custom note and come back immediately to make a good Edit  + Clearly shows the author that there were problems with the edit + Possibility to leave an explanation as to what was wrong with the edit - One still has to redo parts of the edit that has just been rejected - Seems to be a weird workaround for Reject and Edit   Something else?   Each of the three options come with their distinct advantages/disadvantages making it non trivial to decide which one to pick.  Or does the answer simply depend on the quality of the edit? Like:  Improve Edit for subjectively slightly positive edits Reject and Edit (Or Reject and Edit) for subjectively slightly negative edits I have a Linux CentOS server, the OS+packages used around 5GB. Then, I transferred 97GB data from a Windows server to two folders on this Linux server, after calculated the disk usage, I see the total size of the two folders is larger than the disk used size.  Run du -sh on each folder, one use 50GB, the other one use 47GB  But run df -h, the used space is 96GB. (50GB + 47GB + 5GB) > 96GB  Is there any problem? Those two folders contain lots of files (1 million+). Thanks. What does negative R-squared mean? Let's say I have some data, and then I fit the data with a model (a non-linear regression). Then I calculate the R-squared ($R^2$).  When R-squared is negative, what does that mean? Does that mean my model is bad? I know the range of $R^2$ can be [-1,1]. When $R^2$ is 0, what does that mean as well? We should make books of our best content! And that's a good idea!  We have a lot of high quality content here, certainly enough for a small book.   I'm not saying that it necessarily has to be integrated into the main site, but this is just a suggestion if anyone wants to implement it.   Stack Exchange probably could make money selling the physical books though. CC-BY-SA allows selling, as long as you allow others to make copies of your book, and credit the author.  What Wikipedia does is you can custom order any set of articles as a book (it even has a nice set of authors at the end, to satisfy the BY part of CC-BY-SA).  This could even tie into the docs feature. I have a many-to many relationship between three objects. LGFProducts, PartsinProducts, and Parts. PartsinProducts is the junction object. I want to be able to get data like the names of the parts that are related to the selected LGFProduct.   I understand that parent-child relationship can only traverse one level down while grandchild-grandpa can travel 5 levels at most. What is the parent-child or child-parent in a many-to-many relationship?  I assumed that I should be traversing upwards from Parts to the junction object partsinproduct and then LGFProducts? But my friend who is not a Salesforce expert but has knowledge in CS said that I should do a parent-child query (of LGFProducts to partsinproduct) to child-parent relationship query (PartsinProduct to Parts). Or perhaps both of these options are wrong and another is appropriate.   Also, I am having a little trouble traversing for custom objects. I understand that I need to append the letter r instead of c but get confused. For example, this is my attempt at a three level upward traversal that fails.   SELECT Id, Name, Parts__r.PartsinProducts__r,LGFProducts__r.Name FROM Parts__c   Also if three levels of upward traversal are needed, could one provide an example with custom relationships? As seen above, I am having difficulty successfully querying a three level upward traversal statement for custom objects.  This is my attempt at the parent-child relationship query of LGFProduct to PartsinProducts:  SELECT Name,   (     SELECT Name     FROM PartsinProduct__r   ) FROM LGFProduct__c    I am then given this error: How to run SuperHot at full screen on a Mac?

Align an object to a specific face I usually face this problem when I cut objects to make them printable in my 3D printer. As you may know, you need your object to have a nice base to be printed.  So I usually use bisect to cut an object to different pieces.

This is probably a dumb question. I guess what I'm trying to ask is if radio waves travel the same speed as gamma rays, how do gamma photons carry more energy than radio photons? Do they spin faster? What other energy sources could they carry if they are moving the same speed through space? Splitting file based on size, but make sure that it ends with newline I am able to use the split command successfully to split large file into multiple smaller files. This is being achieved by following command  split -b 1G $temp_path $final_filepath   But only caveat is that these files many times contain last line which is split across 2 files. Is there any way to avoid that using split or any other command ?
