How to manually trigger "turn off display"? How do I manually trigger the "turn off display" function in Windows 7? This normally happens automatically when the user doesn't move mouse or presses any keys for a certain amount of time (power management section of control panel).  Third party software or a full blown application is nice, but I'd prefer an approach native to Windows 7. Like a command line or something.

I am currently undergoing a full Apostol Calculus I reading, and with few chapters left I've began planning what other books to read. I was thinking about finishing both Apostol Calculus l and ll, and then read Apostol mathematical analysis. I'm not pretty sure whether these are the best books or if they will provide me with a strong math basis. I've already taken calculus i, ii, iii and linear algebra. The reason I've chosen Aapostol volume 1 and 2 is that I've heard they cover almost all the topics I've seen and will see in the next semester/s. I would appreciate if somebody could give me some advice about this. I really like to have a book that really gives me hard and challenging problems.

There's   1. subjunctive should, and   2. mandative should, and   3. , at least;   and I s[up]pose 4. Should we? is suggestive should, and   5. Shouldn't we? is tag **should**, and I can think of a lot more.    I ask about only operative uses of this modal verb including literary and formal usage,  but please omit anything obsolete. I'm trying to classify them and learn the formal terms describing each. Are there any apt others in addition to the ones above? (I added the enumeration below)  1. What's 'subjunctive should'?

Define $\rho (X,Y)$ by $\rho (X,Y)$ = correlation between random variable $I_X$ and $I_Y$, where $I_X$ and $I_Y$ are the indicator function of $X$ and $Y$. Express $\rho (X,Y)$ in term of $\mu (X)$, $\mu (Y)$, $\mu(XY)$. Conclude that $\rho(X,Y)=0$, if and only if $X$ and $Y$ are independent.      How to show that: $$\rho(X,Y)= \frac{\mu(XY)\,\mu(X^cY^c)-\mu(XY^c)\,\mu(X^cY)}{(\mu(X) \,\mu(X^c)-\mu(Y) \,\mu(Y^c))^{1/2}};0&lt;\mu(X)&lt;1;\,0&lt;\mu(Y)&lt;1$$ Frequent Write to Non-volatile Memory Can I manually put an external hard disk to sleep? How to calculate overlap between empirical probability densities? I'm looking for a method to calculate the area of overlap between two kernel density estimates in R, as a measure of similarity between two samples. To clarify, in the following example, I would need to quantify the area of the purplish overlapping region:  library(ggplot2) set.seed(1234) d &lt;- data.frame(variable=c(rep("a", 50), rep("b", 30)), value=c(rnorm(50), runif(30, 0, 3))) ggplot(d, aes(value, fill=variable)) + geom_density(alpha=.4, color=NA)     A similar question was discussed , the difference being that I need to do this for arbitrary empirical data rather than predefined normal distributions. The overlap package addresses this question, but apparently only for timestamp data, which doesn't work for me. The Bray-Curtis index (as implemented in vegan package's vegdist(method="bray") function) also seems relevant but again for somewhat different data.  I'm interested in both the theoretical approach and the R functions I might employ to implement it. How can I send the stdout of one process to multiple processes using (preferably unnamed) pipes in Unix (or Windows)? I'd like to redirect the stdout of process proc1 to two processes proc2 and proc3:           proc2 -&gt; stdout        /  proc1        \           proc3 -&gt; stdout   I tried   proc1 | (proc2 &amp; proc3)   but it doesn't seem to work, i.e.   echo 123 | (tr 1 a &amp; tr 1 b)   writes   b23   to stdout instead of    a23  b23 A lot of people recommend to use the maximum node for glass setup, but I can't find that node.

Resetting crontab file to default Are there any downsides to passing structs by value in C, rather than passing a pointer? Are there any downsides to passing structs by value in C, rather than passing a pointer?  If the struct is large, there is obviously the performancd aspect of copying lots of data, but for a smaller struct, it should basically be the same as passing several values to a function.  It is maybe even more interesting when used as return values. C only has single return values from functions, but you often need several. So a simple solution is to put them in a struct and return that.  Are there any reasons for or against this?  Since it might not be obvious to everyone what I'm talking about here, I'll give  a simple example.  If you're programming in C, you'll sooner or later start writing functions that look like this:  void examine_data(const char *ptr, size_t len) {     ... }  char *p = ...; size_t l = ...; examine_data(p, l);   This isn't a problem. The only issue is that you have to agree with your coworker in which the order the parameters should be so you use the same convention in all functions.  But what happens when you want to return the same kind of information? You typically get something like this:  char *get_data(size_t *len); {     ...     *len = ...datalen...;     return ...data...; } size_t len; char *p = get_data(&amp;len);   This works fine, but is much more problematic. A return value is a return value, except that in this implementation it isn't. There is no way to tell from the above that the function get_data isn't allowed to look at what len points to. And there is nothing that makes the compiler check that a value is actually returned through that pointer. So next month, when someone else modifies the code without understanding it properly (because he didn't read the documentation?) it gets broken without anyone noticing, or it starts crashing randomly.  So, the solution I propose is the simple struct  struct blob { char *ptr; size_t len; }   The examples can be rewritten like this:  void examine_data(const struct blob data) {     ... use data.tr and data.len ... }  struct blob = { .ptr = ..., .len = ... }; examine_data(blob);  struct blob get_data(void); {     ...     return (struct blob){ .ptr = ...data..., .len = ...len... }; } struct blob data = get_data();   For some reason, I think that most people would instinctively make examine_data take a pointer to a struct blob, but I don't see why. It still gets a pointer and an integer, it's just much  clearer that they go together. And in the get_data case it is impossible to mess up in the way I described before, since there is no input value for the length, and there must be a returned length.
