What does 'synchronized' mean? TAR 6 GB worth of files into separate 1.9 GB TAR files Is time continuous or discrete? I was coding a physics simulation, and noticed that I was using discrete time. That is, there was an update mechanism advancing the simulation for a fixed amount of time repeatedly, emulating a changing system.  I though that was interesting, and now believe the real world must behave just like my program does. It is actually advancing forward in tiny but discrete time intervals? Novel about alien conquerers who conduct games to select servants I read this maybe 10-15 years ago.   Aliens have conquered earth. Possibly quite some time before the time then novel is set in. They have built their own cities. They conduct periodic athletic competitions for humans similar to the current olympics. The winners are take into the city to act as servants to the masters. The protagonist is part of a human resistance movement who is competing in the games. The plan is to infiltrate the city, gather intel and escape. He wins, get in, finally has to kill his master and escape down a waste disposal system which ends up outside the city.   Anybody knows which one I am talking about? This is a weird phenomenon.  Consider the following code:  \documentclass{article} \begin{document}   $$Z^* \frac{Z^*}{Z^*}$$ \end{document}   It produces the following picture:    The asterisks appear in various places in comparison to the Z. This looks particularly bad in the denominator. Any idea what's behind this? There are a few questions on this forum asking about why Latex3 is taking so long to come out. However, all of these are from the early 2010s. I'm just wondering what the current state of the project is and whether it's ready (or nearly ready) for prime time? Does a (half) beheaded Ettin take bleeding damage of some sort? Let's say a character cuts off one of an Ettin's heads, but the other head is still intact, and it's as such still alive. Obviously, there's a lot of blood. Does the Ettin take continuous damage from naturally bleeding out? Or does it not work that way? After Upgrade to Ubuntu 20.04: "Oh no! Something went wrong" Using the residue theorem, calculate $\int_{0}^{2\pi}\frac{1}{1-2a\cos{\theta}+a^2}d\theta$ I use Lyx 2.1, document class : Report. My problem is that the titles of figures are written on the numbers at List of Figures. rake db:migrate doesn't seem to work in production How do I do a search in File Explorer that includes subfolders of zip archives? In File Explorer, I can enter search terms in the upper-right search box to search the current folder and all subfolders. I can also navigate the folder tree of zip archives like any other folders. However, if I want my searches to include files in a zip archive I have to navigate to the specific folder in the zip archive where the file is located. My searches never include files in zip archives if I'm not in the archive, and when I am in the archive my searches don't include files within the archive's subfolders.  Is there a way for my searches to include zip archive subfolders? How to get over "device or resource busy"? What does "soft" in "soft symmetry breaking" mean? Why do we need both the Suffrage and Vox Populi badges? The Suffrage badge is awarded for using 30 votes in the day, and the Vox Populi for using 40.  I understand from  that the idea of Vox Populi is to incentivise voting on questions, but is there any evidence that having two badges does so better than just having Vox Populi? On sites with new responsive theme, word wrap on long titles breaks in the middle of a word Custom environment in wrapfigure Brace expansion not working in a script for i in {1..40} do     echo $i done   I got  {1..40}   and I would like to have something like  1 2 3 and so on   so I can use the variable i inside a command's parameter. How many distinct functions can be defined from set A to B? Detecting start bit in software UART I'm experimenting with writing a software UART on my microcontroller using GPIO pins. This is to temporarily add a UART channel on a project until we get the new design implemented that uses a uC with more UART ports.  What I'm having difficulty with is correctly detecting a start bit in a serial stream. The source of the stream is external and doesn't care when my device powers up. So it's very likely that my device will power on and start seeing data bits in the middle of a byte transmission. Undoubtedly, that will cause my software UART to read erroneous values, as it won't be able to tell the difference between a start bit and any other high-to-low transition.  Is this an inevitable issue with a UART channel? Or is there some clever trick that the uC manufacturers use in their hardware UARTs?
