I am working in world map (the Natural Earth data) which I would like to readjust for a political map of the world.   So, I have already changed the central meridian in Mercator projection, but I discover a new problem. It is a line which is the rest from orginal WGS84 projection that divide continental Russia and its island into two parts. The functions dissolve and split dont work. The line is still in the map :-(
I'm not sure how to remove the line that represents the 180th meridian (international dateline) on my polygon. I have the "Russia Country Boundary 2017" feature layer added from the Living Atlas. My Projected Coordinate System is set to "Asia North Albers Equal Area Conic". I've tried to google this question, but I haven't come across an answer I can fully understand. I'm a student and very new to all this!  The line is actually a gap between the polygons.   Using ArcGIS Pro 2.3.1  ANSWER:  It turns out I was not projecting correctly, which was creating issues down the line when editing polygons. Here's what I did...  1. Start a blank project in ArcGIS. Insert new map, go into its     properties, change the Coordinate System to "Asia North Albers Equal     Area Conic".  2. Add "World Countries (Generalized)" from the Living     Atlas. Select Russia and Export Features to new feature class layer.  3. Search and select the Project tool from Analysis>Geoprocessing>Tools.   4. Select the Russia layer for input. Select "Current Map" for Output Coordinate System. Run.  5.Now edit the polygons to close the gap and merge to remove any lines. All done!  The only thing that bothers me with this fix is the addition of shape area (484,914.49674 m²) and shape length (4.59 m) to the original Russia polygon. These numbers could be different depending on how you close the gap, and possibly affect data projections depending on your use of this map?

Matching a sentence with grep Can I accept an already rejected edit (to my own post)? Today,  to one of . Before I got to see the notification, the edit already was rejected by other people (three rejections, one approval).  But the edit was actually a good one (like most edit proposals to my post I get to see) – a correction of syntax errors, so I would have definitively approved it.  (The suggested edit didn't change the main point of the answer, which was about the API to use, but it made the code example of my answer actually usable. I didn't compile it when writing my answer, it was late at the evening.)  So I did edit my post to include the proposed change, so the proposal is not fully lost. But the proposer only got the negative feedback from the rejection, and none of the reputation bonus an accepted edit gives.  My suggestion: Could there be added a way a post author can accept edits which were already rejected by other users?  Also, is there some way I can contact the rejectors and teach them not to reject good edits? Does $\int_{ - 1}^1 {\frac{1}{x}dx} = 0 \text { or } \infty $?

My goal is to produce a graph showing the linkages (and lack there of) between several fields that share a common subproblem by showing who cites whom.

I already derived a QM expectation value for ordinary momentum which is: $$ \langle p \rangle=  \int\limits_{-\infty}^{\infty} \overline{\Psi}  \left(- i\hbar\frac{d}{dx}\right) \Psi \, d x $$ And I can read clearly that operator for momentum equals $\widehat{p}=- i\hbar\frac{d}{dx}$. Is there an easy way to derive an expectation value for $\langle p^2 \rangle$ and its QM operator $\widehat{p^2}$? How to show textures in the 3D View editor? What exactly are censored data? I have read different descriptions of censored data:  A) As explained in  thread, unquantified data below or above a certain threshold is censored. Unquantified means data is above or below a certain threshold but we do not know the exact value. Data is then marked at the low or high threshold value in the regression model. It matches the description in this , which I've found very clear (2nd slide on first page). In other words $Y$ is capped to either a minimum, a maximum value or both because we do not know the true value outside of that range.   B) A friend told me that we can apply a censored data model to partially unknown $Y$ observations, provided we have at least some limit information about the unknown $Y_i$ outcomes. For example, we want to estimate the final price for a mix of silent and open auctions based on some qualitative criteria (type of goods, country, bidders wealth, etc.). While for the open auctions we know all final prices $Y_i$, for the silent auctions we only know the first bid (say, $1,000) but not the final price. I was told that in this case data is censored from above and a censored regression model should be applied.  C) Finally there is the definition given by the  where $Y$ is missing altogether but the predictors are available. I'm not sure how this example is different from truncated data.  So what exactly are censored data? How to store and preserve lots of data? I have many DVDs with movies and games, they are getting old and dusty, some of them are damaged. And I have more than 300 GB of general files in my PC. I want to store and preserve all of my data and keep them for a long long time.  I want to know what is the best and more reliable storage media that I should use and... I can buy. I will copy all of my DVDs to a new media and throw all of my DVDs away. It will take a very smaller physical space.  I think that everything that I need to store is currently 800 GB.  I do not like optical discs, because they are fragile and I have lost many CDs and DVDs. Hard drives would be good, but they can suddenly stop working, and it is very expensive to recover data from a broken hard drive.  Other questions: How often will I have to copy the files to a new storage media? Is it good idea to have another copy of each file stored in another storage media?  Edit: If I put all of the movies and games in a HDD, if the HDD stops working, I will lose everything. This is how valuable they are for me: If I lose 10% of them, I will not cry, because I can get new ones, but if I lose 90%, it will be a disaster.  Edit 2: I do not think that that online storage is reliable even if I pay for it, because they may be closed or may get bankrupt. They are not from my country and it would be difficult to get the files back. When I execute a program without specifying the full path to the executable, and Bash must search the directories in $PATH to find the binary, it seems that Bash remembers the path in some sort of cache. For example, I installed a build of Subversion from source to /usr/local, then typed svnsync help at the Bash prompt. Bash located the binary /usr/local/bin/svnsync for "svnsync" and executed it. Then when I deleted the installation of Subversion in /usr/local and re-ran svnsync help, Bash responds:  bash: /usr/local/bin/svnsync: No such file or directory   But, when I start a new instance of Bash, it finds and executes /usr/bin/svnsync.  How do I clear the cache of paths to executables?
