On aviation maps (ICAO map 1:500.000) restricted areas are indicated by a line with hachure pointing to the inside of the polygon.    Refer to ICAO Annex 4 Appendix 2 page APP 2-9:    Is it possible to create a line or fill style with QGIS which represents this hachure?
I have a polygon layer in QGIS, and would like to represent the polygons like in the below image:    I have tried two different approaches, none of which are satisfactory.    Using a line pattern fill, the entire polygon is filled with the line pattern. I need a blank area in the middle which is not filled in.    Using a marker line fill, I am able to keep a blank area in the middle, but the markers are rotated to align with the edges of the polygon. I need the markers to preserve the same rotation along all edges, like in the example above.  Any ideas?
Unity remove logo in splash screen Can some metadata about deleted posts be included in Data.SE? I like to use  to view usage stats for some of the sites, however deleted posts are not included on Data.SE and I think this skews the numbers quite a bit, particularly on sites with a lot of deletions. Would it be possible to include some limited data about deleted posts in Data.SE to make statistical queries more accurate? You could clear the non-public data fields of deleted posts, such as Posts.Title, Posts.Body, and Posts.OwnerUserId to address privacy concerns explained . You could even leave the PostId set to 0 since I know SE doesn't want to provide users with a way of searching deleted questions. The data I would mostly be interested in is CreationDate, LastActivityDate, PostHistory (date closed, date reopened, date deleted, etc), and the fact there was a deleted question in the first place. Up/Down votes, Score, Tags, and View/Answer/Favorite count would also be preferred. This would make the statistical queries accurate, while still removing the information not meant to be visible to the public. Add review queues to Android app Let $A$ and $B$ be $m \times n$ and $n \times m$ real matrices.  I proved that if $\lambda$ is a nonzero eigenvalue of the $m \times m$ matrix $AB$ then it is also an eigenvalue of the $n \times n$ matrix $BA$. But I am having trouble finding an example showing that this need not be true if $\lambda=0$  Thank you in advance Xubuntu or Lubuntu on a Mac mini? My Mac mini doesn't have sufficient hardware for Ubuntu 11.04 (specifically Unity I think), and so I have to use the classic environment, which is fine, but it seems to run slower on 11.04 (I'm upgrading now to 11.10).  However, I heard  that if it runs slow I should use Xubuntu or Lubuntu.   So my question is:    What is the best way to upgrade from Ubuntu 11.10 to Xubuntu or Lubuntu and which one would be better for a late 2005 model Mac Mini PPC?

I am working on a prototype, one function of which is to detect whether an object is "in range" by a few cm. Right now I'm just using an Arduino and a cheap  that operates at 13.56 MHz:    I've successfully gotten it to detect the tag, but only at a distance of about 3-4 cm when the tag is oriented parallel to the antenna.  According to my  , the HF band allows read ranges of between 10 cm and 1 m for passive tags, depending on factors like antenna size, tag size and orientation, and transceiver power.  I realize this inexpensive reader is not up to task as-is, but I'm interested in building something that achieves read ranges of 15-20 cm.  Some criteria:   No need to read multiple tags; only whether one tag is in range or not. No need to write to the tag. Cannot use an active tag.   I'm not experienced with RFID reader construction (yet) but am interested in knowing what I should pursue.  Here are some things I've considered:   Ditch the embedded antenna on the cheap RFID reader and construct my own, larger antenna. I'd need to see if the onboard  is up to the task of providing additional power. Look for a different IC around which to build a reader from scratch. Find a ready-made solution instead of trying to build one (more cost-effective?). Use something other than RFID for simple proximity detection.   I am experienced with microcontrollers and basic electronics, and have made audio and lighting projects, but this is a first with RFID. Since I don't need to read multiple tags, which RFID is suitable for, I've considered maybe some sort of magnet and hall-effect sensor, but the range does not seem adequate. I considered using an ultrasonic proximity detector, but the application calls for detecting the tagged object while ignoring untagged ones (ultrasonic would produce false positives on untagged objects). I've considered some sort of reflective surface placed on the object, and detecting reflected light, but the object orientation is not reliable enough to maintain alignment.  So, in a nutshell, What modifications can I make to my existing reader, or what alternate technology should I pursue to achieve 15-20 cm detection of a passively tagged object?  I plan on connecting whatever proximity detector is used to a microcontroller using SPI. Is the usage of text embedded in an image a bad practice, for very controlled uses? What are your thoughts on writing your text in images?  I'm not saying throughout the whole website... But in certain key locations like image carousels. And I'm not talking about the special cases where you have font types that browsers can't render. I'm talking about text that uses standard fonts and is not too big (3/4 bullets).  Should I embed the text in the images that compose the carousel? Or should I apply the text to the images as "real text" HTML?  What are the advantages/ disadvantages of using text in an image? I just installed Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS after installing windows 10 in my new VN7-571G and the wireless is not working. It never had: even during the installation it was not recognized.

I do not see wifi settings in network settings I'm not a linux power user, so I do not know what to do to solve the issue. What should I do to make it work? I replaced a non-protected receptacle with a GFCI type and now my circuit tester trips the GFCI as soon as it is plugged in.  The receptacle tested fine before replacement, ground, neutral, hot, etc.  I've double checked the hot/neutral/ground connections.  I've also tried it with the downstream load disconnected.   The GFCI trips the moment I plug in my circuit tester (before pushing the test button).  Otherwise things check out OK.  I can plug in a power tool without it tripping.  Also, the integrated test/reset button work correctly.   I've read that the integrated test button is the only one that truly matters. Is this correct or should I be concerned? I'm sure a home inspector will red flag this if their tester has the same result.  Update  My tester is by "Commercial Electric".  The tester is one of the palm sized three prong type with three leds to indicate the condition of the circuit and a button on top to test GFCI. It's new from the local box store. I met a guy on a sugar daddy dating site and we talked, I told him my situation and he said he would help.   He asked for my bank account information and I told him you can use cash app or PayPal to go through. He said his account manager deals with his finances. So I set up an account with a bank that I don’t use so that my primary account isn’t used.  Eventually he was in the process of sending me money and we had agreed on a amount that wasn't crazy. But then he asked for my address and I asked why and he said just wondering. Then said he wanted to send me a surprise for being his baby. Which I didn’t give.  Then later on he sent the money and said he sent me a bonus and that I was supposed to use that to pay his mothers caregiver, which he didn’t mention until after.  I kept questioning him and he was saying that he works in construction and he’s trusting me to carry out the errand. Then he said don’t let him down and I asked him if he was threatening me and he kept saying I need this done but didn’t really answer my question.  Am I being scammed? I’m about to change my password but is this a scam? Alternatives to Dmitri Bertsekas' Introduction to Probability and Sheldon Ross' A First Course on Probability I have Ross' A First Course on Probability and Bertseka's Introduction to Probability book. However these two books do not exactly give me what I am looking for. The problem is  Bertsekas' book is introductory, while Ross' book explains expression $E[\ E[X\mid Y] \ ]$ just by briefly saying it is a function of $y$ if I remember correctly. I need a probability book which will make me feel comfortable with the symbols and letters rather than ready made formulas. I want to be able grasp when a random variable is a constant or when it is not. I want  to be able to read and understand equations involving both random variables and constants and when are interpreted as a rv. when they are not etc. Can we make a Vpn server run on Android?

Rigorous proof that surjectivity implies injectivity for finite sets Isomorphism involving Eilenberg-Maclane space, Tors.

I read recently that if you hold a bullet in one hand and a pistol in the other, both hands at the same height, and subsequently fired the pistol at the same time as dropping the bullet, both bullets would hit the ground at the same time (assuming the fired bullet encounters no obstacles).  Is this true, and if so can you explain the reasoning behind it with as few equations as possible? I assume it is essentially that gravity is unaffected by momentum, but it just sounds counter-intuitive. If granted omniscience and we know that $\beta_1$ in a multiple linear regression model is truly 0, what does that mean in words (and math notation)?  The model is: $Y = \beta_0 + \beta_1X_1 + \beta_2X_2 + \epsilon$  Does $\beta_1 = 0$ mean:   Empirically: "If we make infinite, perfect measurements of our data, $\hat\beta_1$ approaches 0 at the limit?" [Math: ??] Formally: "In the true, finite population of our data, $X_1$ has 0 association with $Y$ and their vectors of values are perfectly linearly independent, uncorrelated, and orthogonal?"
