I have set up my proxy server so that it works through the browser ( in firefox: edit > preferences > advanced &lt; network &lt; settings ).  I also got it working from the command line ( in system settings: network &lt; network proxy ) which has been working fine for the last few weeks.  Suddenly connecting to the internet through the command line has stopped working but connecting through the browser still works fine.  Does anyone know why this could happen and how to fix it? Surely if I can access the internet through the browser, why can't I from the command line?   Many thanks.

What is the difference between $* and $@? xcode app crashing on launch with breakpoint Why does the weighing balance restore when tilted and released In Knuth's book "The Art Of Computer Programming Vol.1" there is a description about Euclid's algorithm to find the greatest common divisor of m and n.   And there is a phrase.     $m = qn+r$.  If $r = 0$, then $m$ is a multiple of $n$, and clearly in such a case $n$ is the greatest common divisor of $m$ and $n$. If $r \neq 0$, note that any number which divides both $m$ and $n$ must divide $m -qn =r$ , and any number which divides both $n$ and $r$ must divide $qn+r =m$.   I don't understand why any divisor of $m$ and $n$ must divide $m-qn =r$. Should 'fuck' be present in review audits (intentionally fake suggested edit reviews)? Use grep --exclude/--include syntax to not grep through certain files I'm looking for the string foo= in text files in a directory tree. It's on a common Linux machine, I have bash shell: grep -ircl &quot;foo=&quot; *  In the directories are also many binary files which match &quot;foo=&quot;. As these results are not relevant and slow down the search, I want grep to skip searching these files (mostly JPEG and PNG images). How would I do that? I know there are the --exclude=PATTERN and --include=PATTERN options, but what is the pattern format? The man page of grep says: --include=PATTERN     Recurse in directories only searching file matching PATTERN. --exclude=PATTERN     Recurse in directories skip file matching PATTERN.  Searching on grep include, grep include exclude, grep exclude and variants did not find anything relevant If there's a better way of grepping only in certain files, I'm all for it; moving the offending files is not an option. I can't search only certain directories (the directory structure is a big mess, with everything everywhere). Also, I can't install anything, so I have to do with common tools (like grep or the suggested find). I heard the following dialog in a British English movie:     Words go round quick. All the little tongues go clack, clack, clack.   What does this mean, and why was the word "quick" used instead of "quickly"? I would like to simulate the behaviour of a zener diode in LTspice. Consider the following schematic         &ndash; Schematic created using   I'm interested in simulating its performance when Vcc changes from the rated value (say 12V), for example when Vcc varies from 11 to 15 V.  Now, I know how to simulate this behaviour in LTspice for a generic diode or even for a particular diode which is available in the model library, but when it comes to using a custom diode, I have no idea on how to specify the diode parameters.  Looking into the documentation I was able to come up with a setup that is the correct one, that is, I can specify a custom diode model but now I'm having problems in understanding where to find all the parameters since the datasheet of my diode of choice does not provide all of them. In the LTspice model shown below I've picked a 4.7 V zener diode that was available just to have a base model to edit (and a 1k resistor just for reference).    The diode I'd like to use is a 3V . How can I simulate, as realistically as possible, the behaviour of this diode given the few parameters available in the datasheet? I've recently installed pgAdmin 1.18.1 and noticed a strange thing:  Long json query results are shortened to 256 symbols and then ' (...)' is added.

I couldn't even start How to create a "heat distortion" effect with a cycles procedural node set up without compositing I know how to do a heat distortion effect in compositing.   What I am looking for is a way to do the same effect with a material set up in cycles.   What would be the best way to create a procedural material that can be placed in front of any object and make it look like heat is rising in front of it (without compositing)?  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Is the below a valid circuit implementation and are there any things to watch out for? It's a simplification of the larger circuit but the crux of it is that I need to sink current into two GPIO input pins. The pins are signified by the 1 and 0.  Also, would a diode on the pins be advisable?    Edit: Here's the non-simplified circuit. The question relates to the 3.3v part of it. In essence, the timer and decade counter sequentially pulse current, 'activating' the transistors one at a time. The keypad is a simple matrix keypad. What I'm wondering if I can do is to put a GPIO pin on the line between the keypad and ground. The intended effect is that, when a button on the keypad is pressed, 2 pins will change state - this signifies the row and column.  Note that some of the resistance and capacitance values are notional at the moment. How to use different domains for multilingual sites and keep users logged in? I have a site that is in French and English. I am able to successfully setup so that users can switch back and forth between the two domains to view either language, however I cannot seem to keep users logged in. When they are logged into the english domain and then switch to the french domain they are required to login again. However if they switch back to the english domain they are still logged in.  As an example we'll use www.english-domain.com as the base (default) domain and www.french-domain.com as the secondary domain  In settings.php I have modified the following, however it doesn't seem to be keeping them logged in.

From what I can see, "theoretical computer science" questions seem to be slightly more isolated to discussing algorithms, whereas "computer science" seems to have questions that are slightly broader and higher-level. Is there any place on the Stack Exchange sites where they give a longer description?  I'm just curious as to what niche the beta "computer science" site is meant to fill, as I see many topics in both forums that overlap. I find myself constantly looking up the syntax of  find . -name "FILENAME"  -exec rm {} \;   mainly because I don't see how exactly the -exec part works.

Given a function:  function x(arg) { return 30; }   You can call it two ways:  result = x(4); result = new x(4);   The first returns 30, the second returns an object.  How can you detect which way the function was called inside the function itself?  Whatever your solution is, it must work with the following invocation as well:  var Z = new x();  Z.lolol = x;  Z.lolol();   All the solutions currently think the Z.lolol() is calling it as a constructor. I saw this today, I checked in Mathematica and the integral comes out to $\pi$, but I have no idea how to solve it.
