I understand some precautions must be taken with regards to URLs for SEO. On my website, I have a 301 redirect from wwwmysite.com to mysite.com as I understand that otherwise this can duplicate the webpages. Is there a difference between mysite.com and mysite.com/index.html ? Do I need to have a redirect somewhere to ensure they are the same ? If, for example, I want the URL of each webpage to end with / I can do so by naming each page index.html and placing it in a folder of the desired name, such as the about page would be mysite.com/about/. Is there a difference between this URL, which is my preference, and mysite.com/about/index.html, which both lead to the same file ? I also think this may not be a good method to achieve this, is there an alternative which is good for SEO and will allow the URL of pages to appear as above.
For only my index pages, I am receiving this warning in Google Search Console:     Duplicate, submitted URL not selected as canonical   I know that this occurs because Google is attempting to track both the default landing "page" (i.e. www.domain.example/) and the page to which to which DirectoryIndex points (i.e. www.domain.example/index.html). They are, in fact, the same page, and so the warning is the result of a false positive.  Two questions for our community:   Why does Google not conflate these and count them as a single page? Alternately, is there something wrong with my set up if this has happened? I can easily force both pages to point to a single canonical URL. But which is preferable, "/" or "index.html"?

My question comes from what I learned in the movies, considering I have not yet been able to read the books. I would just like to know why Severus Snape called himself the Half-Blood Prince? Did many people call him that or did he just think that it was a cool nickname? This question might be answered in the books so feel free to quote from it. Jackknife vs. LOOCV Why is my SSH login slow? I'm seeing delays in SSH Logins. Specifically, there are 2 spots where I see a range from instantaneous to multi-second delays.   Between issuing the ssh command and getting a login prompt and between entering the passphrase and having the shell load   Now, specifically I'm looking at ssh details only here. Obviously network latency, speed of the hardware and OSes involved, complex login scripts, etc can cause delays.  For context I ssh to a vast multitude of linux distributions and some Solaris hosts using mostly Ubuntu, CentOS, and MacOS X as my client systems.  Almost all of the time, the ssh server configuration is unchanged from the OS's default settings.  What ssh server configurations should I be interested in?  Are there OS/kernel parameters that can be tuned? Login shell tricks?  Etc? How to launch a command on network connection/disconnection? I have a wifi connection that requires to authenticate using a web form once the wireless link is established. I know how to automate the authentication with a script that uses curl/.  But how can I ask Windows to call my script every time I connect to a particular network connection?  I would be also interested in receiving the name of the wireless profile or the ESSID on the command-line of my script. I can't seem to figure out how to get past this step. Any suggestions? I just upgraded my texlive distribution and can no longer insert space in table rows using \\[x pt] syntax when colortbl is loaded.

Cannot set up multiple desktops (workspaces) I am running a web site design service for local small business owner. I want avoid legal issues on the images I use.

Help ending a proof using binomial theorem: $\sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k}\cdot\frac{(-1)^k}{k+1} = \frac{1}{n+1}$ Is there a rule to understand how the group "Cha" has to be pronounced?  "Character" sounds with a hard first syllable, while "Charm" sound softer, but I don't find how to tell which sound to use before earing someone saying the word. It could be because of the double consonant "rm" vs "ra"? Or is it just a matter of knowing the rule for every single word?  EDIT: More specifically, let's talk about UK English pronunciation. I understand the reasoning behind the fairly narrow textwidth in a default LaTeX article. 60-80 characters per line and all that. However, I am preparing a document that features many lengthy equations, and it seems silly to me to restrict the equations to fit into the same margins as the text when there's all that whitespace going unused on either side.  I'd like to have equations which are wider than the textwidth do the obvious thing, that is, continue to be centered on the page just like all the other equations, and simply extend into both the left and right margin equally. My equations are unnumbered, so there's no concern about where to put equation numbers.  How might I go about implementing this? How to make child process die after parent exits?
