I'm having a problem with my Netbeans IDE and I'm not sure if I can ask about it on Stack Overflow.   Can I ask question about problems with my IDE on Stack Overflow?
There seems to be more than a few computer science/programming Stack Exchange networks (is that the correct term?). Stack Overflow, being the first, has by far the most users, questions, and answers.  What is the reasoning for creating the others, and are there clear guidelines for which kinds of questions should be posted? I can see a large amount of potential overflow, many cases of people not getting a good answer to their question, because the person who has the answer isn't browsing that particular network at the moment.  I understand that they were probably created for organizational purposes, but wouldn't it almost make more sense to just have them as categories under Stack Overflow, keep them separated but still connected, instead of making people have to create multiple 'account's, one for each network?  I am sure there was a very good reason to break them up, but as someone that is new to SE, it can be somewhat intimidating to decide which one to post in to ensure you get a good answer. For example, if I am a computer science student, my first instinct might to be to post in the computer science network, until I see that it literally has 1% of the users as the Stack Overflow network, which still seems to be for programming/computer science related questions.  So my second instinct would then to be to post it into the Stack&nbsp;Overflow site on the basis that I have a significantly higher chance of my question being seen and getting a good answer. Then I notice that there is also a 'programmers' network, and I don't even begin to know where that fits in. I, and I am assuming most people, will probably just post on Stack&nbsp;Overflow to be safe.  My question is, other than the short little description blurb of each one, is there a clear cut set of guidelines which what each network is intended for, what kinds of questions should go to each one, and is anything being done to encourage people to post in these newer, smaller (more specialized?) networks as opposed to just posting in big daddy Stack Overflow?  Now again, this is for computer science/programming/"why isn't this code doing what I want?" related questions, I am not saying that if I had a question about Linux or WordPress or something I would have the same confusion.
(Built-in) way in JavaScript to check if a string is a valid number I'm hoping there's something in the same conceptual space as the old VB6 IsNumeric() function? Find this integral $$\operatorname I=\int\limits_{0}^{1}\dfrac{\arcsin{\sqrt{x}}}{x^4-2x^3+2x^2-x+1}\operatorname d\!x$$  My try: let $$f(x)=x^4-2x^3+2x^2-x+1$$ I found  $$f(1-x)=(1-x)^4-2(1-x)^3+2(1-x)^2-x+1=x^4-2x^3+2x^2-x+1=f(x)$$ so $$I=\int_{0}^{1}\dfrac{\arcsin{\sqrt{(1-x)}}}{x^4-2x^3+2x^2-x+1}dx$$ so $$2I=\int_{0}^{1}\dfrac{\arcsin{\sqrt{x}}+\arcsin{\sqrt{(1-x)}}}{x^4-2x^3+2x^2-x+1}dx$$ then I can't,Thank you very much How do I create an Ubuntu live USB using a Mac? "How to [...]?" and "Where to [...]?" Questions that are not questions. Is this defensible? Adding a question mark to the end of a "How to" or "Where to" sentence appears to be quite common. Here are two examples from this very site:  How to punctuate a list of questions? ()  Where to put the periods when using a parenthetical sentence? ()  In my mind, the question mark doesn't belong at all, and it bothers me.  Am I being unreasonable? Is this practice defensible? Why ZSH ends a line with a highlighted percent symbol? I've noticed this on occasion with a variety of applications. I've often thought it was because the output was cancelled early (ctrl+c, for example) or something similar, and zsh is filling in a new line character. But now curiosity has gotten the best of me, since it doesn't seem to do this in bash.   zsh    bash    The Sequence program is something I pulled from a book while reading on Java certifications and just wanted to see if it would compile and run. I did notice that it does not use the println() method from the System.out package/class. Instead it uses plain old print().  Is the lack of a new line character the reason I get this symbol?

I have the strange experience that from the combination      \glossarystyle{altlisthypergroup}     \clearpage     Printing acronyms     \printglossary[type=acronym]   only the debug message is printed, the glossaries not.  Even, the \printglossary leads to hanging. At the same time, in the text commands like \gls{} work as expected.  Any advice, what other package can interfere with glossaries? (It is part of a bigger project, the MWE works as expected.)    I changed to command line version from TeXstudio. I receive the output  makeglossaries DSc2 makeglossaries version 2.12 (2014-01-20) added glossary type 'main' (glg,gls,glo) added glossary type 'acronym' (alg,acr,acn) makeindex  -s "DSc2.ist" -t "DSc2.alg" -o "DSc2.acr" "DSc2.acn" This is makeindex, version 2.15 [TeX Live 2013] (kpathsea + Thai support).

Warning: File 'DSc2.glo' is empty. Have you used any entries defined in glossary 'main'? Remember to use package option 'nomain' if you don't want to use the main glossary.   What I do not understand, that if there are entries accepted, and sorted, why do I receive the warning about empty .glo file? And also, why the pdflatex hangs if I try to continue with using pdflatex again? We just got a new laptop (ASUS) though we did have a mac.  We are trying to log onto Mojang to download Minecraft and it keeps saying, "The username and password are not recognized."   We have done all the usual procedures; we have reset the password, we are using the email, not the username to sign in, and it looks like the minecraft login servers are working etc. etc.  We quit Minecraft on the old computer and shut off that computer thinking that was the issue.   Still, we can't get onto Mojang.  We are accessing mincraft through firefox and trying to download it to the new computer but we can't get into the account to do that!

Windows file system is case insensitive. How, given a file/folder name (e.g. "somefile"), I get the actual name of that file/folder (e.g. it should return "SomeFile" if Explorer displays it so)?  Some ways I know, all of which seem quite backwards:   Given the full path, search for each folder on the path (via FindFirstFile). This gives proper cased results of each folder. At the last step, search for the file itself. Get filename from handle (as in ). This requires opening a file, creating file mapping, getting it's name, parsing device names etc. Pretty convoluted. And it does not work for folders or zero-size files.   Am I missing some obvious WinAPI call? The simplest ones, like GetActualPathName() or GetFullPathName() return the name using casing that was passed in (e.g. returns "program files" if that was passed in, even if it should be "Program Files").
