How to find an invisible window in Ubuntu 20.04? Sometimes when I open files in LibreOffice, they open in minimized windows that I cannot find anywhere on my screen. How can I find the windows and resize them? The files still appear if I click on the LibreOffice icon in the dock (see attached screenshot; file names pixellated for privacy), but no thumbnail appears and clicking on the minimized file does not cause the file to appear or have any other apparent result.  Notes: (1) This started happening recently. I don't know if I made a change that caused it, if it was related to an update, or if it has some other cause. (2) It happens primarily when I open a file from the web in LibreOffice, by clicking on the &quot;open in LibreOffice&quot; button in the download popup in Firefox. I'm not sure whether it happens under other circumstances as well. (3) Restarting Ubuntu fixes the problem, in that I can then open the file in question to a visible window. But it is not a permanent solution, as the problem recurs with other files. Thanks for any suggestions.
Windows of an application have minimum size and I can't find the window anymore I had an application (in case it matters: LibreOffice Calc] in full-size mode. I then clicked the middle of the three buttons of the top right to adjust the size. When I did that, the window became minimum size, literally a vertical line. I panicked and alt-tabbed, and now I can't even find the vertical line anymore. Opening new windows in that application opens all of them hidden to me, and closing/reopening or even restarting the OS doesn't help. I don't know how to resize my invisible windows anymore. Here's the preview of the windows in the application launcher: a vertical line (that I don't find on my screen anywhere if I click this).
Is there a way to test an application where you simulate a hundred different clients connecting to a IIS server and asking the same data? At the customer where our project is running they have 400 computers and they often do stress tests with all computers. I on the other hand have only got my laptop... (and a development server).  (In my case the data is asked through a WebORB Gateway). How to derive variance-covariance matrix of coefficients in linear regression Show JDBC ResultSet in HTML in JSP page using MVC and DAO pattern Volumetric Windows 10 logo effect I'm trying to recreate the windows 10 background effect on a logo I've made in blender.  Half the logo has a glass like material, the other half has a steel like material. And I'm using cycles at the moment.  I've put various light sources behind the logo and tried a few variations of volumetric scatter in the world to get the god ray sort of feel coming off the logo, but it's just not looking anywhere near as effective as I'd like.  I know the win10 background was a real set and photographed, but has anyone come across a tutorial to do something similar in blender?  I'm very new to the tool, I'd appreciate any pointers in the right direction. I know from reading  that the "primary" use of the IDisposable interface is to clean up unmanaged resources.  To me, "unmanaged" means things like database connections, sockets, window handles, etc.  But, I've seen code where the Dispose() method is implemented to free managed resources, which seems redundant to me, since the garbage collector should take care of that for you.  For example:  public class MyCollection : IDisposable {     private List&lt;String&gt; _theList = new List&lt;String&gt;();     private Dictionary&lt;String, Point&gt; _theDict = new Dictionary&lt;String, Point&gt;();      // Die, clear it up! (free unmanaged resources)     public void Dispose()     {         _theList.clear();         _theDict.clear();         _theList = null;         _theDict = null;     }   My question is, does this make the garbage collector free memory used by MyCollection any faster than it normally would?  edit:  So far people have posted some good examples of using IDisposable to clean up unmanaged resources such as database connections and bitmaps.  But suppose that _theList in the above code contained a million strings, and you wanted to free that memory now, rather than waiting for the garbage collector.  Would the above code accomplish that? Can 12 teams in 6 disciplines play 6 rounds without repetition? Uncertainty principle and multiple observers My understanding is that an observer can measure the precise location of a particle so long as the corresponding uncertainty in momentum measurement is not an issue and vice-versa.    Say there is such an observer, interested in the precise position of a particular particle.  Now, consider a second, independent observer, unbeknownst to the first, who is trying to measure the exact momentum of the same particle without caring about the position.  As a thought experiment, we assume that the two observers are somehow able to access the same particle at the same time in some way without being aware of each other.  Can both observers get their desired results?

I wanted to try gnome-shell in 11.10 (also 12.04 now)  I removed it, however, classic Gnome is still there and the battery icon is changed (too big and can't use a icon pack on it like faenza)   Also, numerous applications were added and the entries remain on the login screen.    How can I remove it completely, rolling back all changes made when installing gnome-shell? Why I can't scan the WhatsApp QR? Here is the dictionary I have  propertyList = {     "id":           "int",     "name":         "char(40)",      "team":         "int",     "realOwner":    "int",      "x":            "int",     "y":            "int",      "description":  "char(255)",      "port":         "bool",     "secret":       "bool",     "dead":         "bool",     "nomadic":      "bool",      "population":   "int",     "slaves":       "int", }   But when I print it out with "\n".join(myDict) I get this  name nomadic dead port realOwner secret slaves team y x population id description   I know that a dictionary is unordered but it comes out the same every time and I've no idea why. The square roots of different primes are linearly independent over the field of rationals I need to find a way of proving that the square roots of a finite set    of different primes are linearly independent over the field of    rationals.    I've tried to solve the problem using elementary algebra  and also using the theory of field extensions, without success. To  prove linear independence of two primes is easy but then my problems  arise. I would be very thankful for an answer to this question.

Can steam create an overview of all my achievements? I play several games on Steam and I love the achievement system. It would be great to get an overview of all the achievements ever gained in Steam games. Does Steam support this? I haven't found such an overview.  If such a feature does not exist, I would already be happy with an easy way to calculate the sum of all my achievements automatically.  Edit: I stumbled upon an interesting website called  today. Unfortunately it only works for XBox-Achievements. Does anyone know of a similar service for Steam? This would solve my question right away. Implementing my own solution based on the links posted in the answers didn't work because the APIs are not sufficient for my needs. Correlated joint normal distribution: calculating a probability Given   $$ f_{XY}(x,y) = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{1-\rho^2}} \exp \left( -\frac{x^2 +y^2 - 2\rho xy}{2(1-\rho^2)} \right) $$  $Y = Z\sqrt{1-\rho^2} + \rho X$  And   $$ f_{XZ}(x,z) = \frac{1}{2\pi } \exp \left( -\frac{x^2 +z^2}{2} \right) $$  Show that $P(X&gt;0,Y&gt;0)= \frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{2\pi}(\arcsin \rho) $  I'm supposed to use the fact that X and Z are independent standard normal random variables, but I don't quite understand how.

I have a question about the following text:     Last week Alex Knapp at Forbes published an article criticizing my Nikola Tesla comic. I don't normally respond to these kinds of thing, but since it's' Forbes I figured a proper response was in order.    I would rather say "this kind of things" rather than the version in the text above.
