C# Check if a decimal has more than 3 decimal places? Current measurement maximum time On my multimeter I have two current measurement connection. One for the mA and one for the A.  On the ampere one there's a time limitation but not on the mA one. Also they mention in the manual a kind of "cooldown time" after the measurement for the A one. So, basicaly, probing with this input can really slow down my project. (max 15 sec every 5 minutes)  My question is, I have to switch to that A one for a 600-700mA current (mA input is 500mA), as it's not a "big" current, can I bypass this limitation ? Is it design for higher current only or any measurement done on that input ? It's a middle-end multimeter but even the online datasheet is not complete about what. (Was excepting a kind of measured current/cooldown time graph) The recent discovery by the LIGO made me wonder about this.  We know that there exists a CMBR, Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation, a blanket of electromagnetic energy covering the universe, made by the Big Bang.  But, the big bang was an explosive event. The huge "shockwave" made by it sent ripples in space time. (Primordial gravitational waves)  Wouldn't these ripples flood the universe creating sort of a Cosmic Gravitational Background Radiation (not exactly radiation)?  If such waves do flood the universe, couldn't a much more sensetive version of LIGO be able to detect this and use it as a contrast to create "gravitational telescopes"? Is it possible to detect 32 bit vs 64 bit in a bash script? I am writing a bash script to deal with some installations in an automated way... I have the possibility of getting one such program in 32 or 64 bit binary... is it possible to detect the machine architecture from bash so I can select the correct binary?  This will be for Ubuntu machines. Is "remove" a reserved keyword in Google Chrome? How do I close a connection early? Resistance between two points in an infinite metal sphere/cube Let's imagine that we have a tridimensional metal object of infinite size, and decide to calculate the resistance between two arbitrary points. How would we go about doing this?  I have thought of two possibilities for calculating this, the first one being an adaptation of the conductivity (S/m) using the Pythagorean theorem to find a distance and isolating the resistance from there, treating it like we would treat an electrolytic liquid.  The second possibility I have been thinking about would be a 3-dimentional adaptation of the infinite-resistors problem (which I have only seen in 2d).  Would one of these methods result in giving a decent approximation, or would another method give better results? I've seen many posts regarding a combinatorial proof of the following question. But for a non-combinatorial proof would the following method work? Also... is this the easiest way to arrive at a proof? It seems to be rather verbose.  Show the formula $k {n\choose k} = n {n-1 \choose k-1}$ is true for all integers $n,k$ with $0\le k \le n$.  My answer:  Observe that  $$\begin{align*} {n\choose k}&amp;= \frac {n}{k} {n-1 \choose k-1}\\ &amp;= \frac {n}{k}\left[ {n-2 \choose k-2} + {n-2 \choose k-1}\right]\\ &amp;= \frac {n}{k}\left[ \frac{(n-2)!}{(k-2)!(n-2-(k-2))!} + \frac {(n-2)!}{(k-1)!(n-2-(k-1))!}\right]\\ &amp;= \frac {n}{k}\left[ \frac{(n-2)!}{(k-2)!(n-k)!} + \frac {(n-2)!}{(k-1)!(n-k-1)!}\right]\\ &amp;= \frac{(n-1)!}{(k-1)!(n-k)!} + \frac {(n-1)!}{(k)!(n-k-1)!}\\ &amp;= \frac{(n-1)!}{(k-1)!(n-1-(k-1))!} + \frac {(n-1)!}{(k)!(n-1-k)!}\\ &amp;={n-1 \choose k-1} + {n-1 \choose k}={n \choose k}. \end{align*}$$ One of our websites was copied word for word all 400 pages by someone who used a special program to clone the site. We saw the program in the code.   This was done in early April and soon after that we lost a lot of rank in Google. We just discovered the copied site today. It is mirrorred 100%.   We did change the front page of our site since then to make some differences but since the Penguin update, we still have not recovered. We have also corrected the problems in Webmaster Tools. Will the mirrored site affect our Google rank to a severe degree or are there other issues that are affecting us? What can be done about that mirrored site? Rocket Altitude Calculation Assignment Basic data I was launching a rocket model and I tried to calculate the reached altitude.  The engine (C6-0) impulse is 10 Ns Total weight is 65,7 g (includes the engine)  I calculated speed = 152 m/s $$\vec F \cdot t = \Delta m \vec v$$ Then I calculated the altitude 1007 m which seems too much to me. I guess something about 200 m (you may see the video) $$y_{\max} = \frac{v_0^2 \ }{2 g}$$ Drag I guess, I have to consider drag  Diameter of rocket 2,5 cm Drag coefficient 0,05 (I guess)  $$F_D\, =\, \tfrac12\, \rho\, v^2\, C_D\, A$$ But what about now, what is really achieved altitude? Engine description  (source: )  (source: ) Rocket Altitude Calculation User is able to edit a file using vim I have a file named file.txt with some contents located in /home/myuser directory and I change the permissions of that file to root.root and 644.   -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.4K Jan 15 07:09 file.txt   Then I switched to myuser and opened it with vim(without sudo) and tried to edit and save it :wq! and I got output like:  "file.txt" E949: File changed while writing Press ENTER or type command to continue   Then I hit enter and then again :wq! and the output was :  WARNING: The file has been changed since reading it!!! Do you really want to write to it (y/n)?   I hit y, the file got saved and exit from vim.  The question is why a file with ROOT privileges and read-only access for a user changed by the way?  PS: 1. myuser is a sudo user.   The user permissions after saving the file changed to myuser.myuser as well.  -rw-r--r-- 1 myuser myuser 1.4K Jun 27 18:57 file.txt I'm trying to create a multi-page table with all cells having the same height (as well as certain fixed widths) so that certain manual cut-and-paste operations are a lot easier.  One issue is that one column in particular is text-heavy and should line-break within the cell.  As I don't want it justified, I looked into alternatives such as .  This is doing exactly what I want for horizontal alignment.  For vertical alignment, I've looked at  and the \vphantom method detailed in the above link doesn't seem to be working.  Here's what I'm currently working with:  \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage{array}  \newcolumntype{P}[1]{&gt;{\raggedright\hspace{0pt}\arraybackslash}p{#1}} \def\Z{\vphantom{\parbox[c]{1.7in}{\Huge Something Long}}}  \begin{document} \begin{tabular}{| c || P{0.5in} || P{0.5in} || P{5in} |}\hline  1.  \Z &amp;&amp;&amp; Long long long long long long long long long             long long long long long long long text  \\\hline 2.  \Z &amp;&amp;&amp; More long long long long long long long long             long long long long long long long text  \\\hline \end{tabular}   When I compile, the cells do not have a uniform height, and none of them are as large as 1.7 inches vertically.  So this suggests that somehow the \vphantom method is failing.  Does anybody know of a relatively straightforward solution to this problem? How would you explain why $e^{i\pi}+1=0$ to a middle school student? Hi I was asked by a friends child who is in middle school why $e^{i\pi}+1=0$. Now I couldn't think of a way to explain it so he would understand. Albert Einstein once said “If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough” so how would I explain it.

Why there isn't any integer solutions in non-zero integers for $z^3 = 3(x^3 +y^3+2xyz)$? Consider the following Diophantine equation  $$z^3 = 3(x^3 +y^3+2xyz)$$  Is there any elementary proof for the non-solubility in non-zero integers for this  Diophantine equation, where the absolute value of $x, y$ and $z$ are pairwise coprime integers?  I have proved the impossibility of solution of this Diophantine equation in non-zero integers, but that took quite a few pages and I consider this too long. I hope for a much more elementary and shorter proof for this puzzle.  Hint: It should be noted that is also true for the non-availability of the similar form (replacing coefficient 3 by 1) as the following:   $$z^3=x^3+y^3+2xyz,$$ but this case is very simple to prove, where $x, y\;\&amp;\; z$ are nonzero integers. How can I make a macOS Mojave bootable USB installer in Windows 10? I have downloaded and saved macOS Mojave installation file from the Mac App Store into my external hard drive. Unfortunately, macOS has crashed on my Mac and now I need to install it again. I have used a software named TransMac to make a installation USB in windows following the steps in the link below:    But the provided USB drive after all these steps doesn't show up in my MacBook pro. Considering that I have saved Install macOS Mojave.app on my external hard drive, and I don't have access to any other Mac computers, How can I fix this issue and build a USB for installing Mojave? Using modified copyrighted music in non-commercial games Background: I'm making a retro style game for both fun, and an unofficial contest.   I have bought a song, song X. However, I then found notation for song X, and all the instruments. So basically, it's a program recreating song X in a sense.  I took the notation, and used another program to make it sound like a chiptune does (just for the fun of it, and it sounds good :P). However, I would like to use this in my game. It's non-commercial, but is this allowed? I would've said yes, because I'm not actually using the original, copyrighted song.  I think the main point is can I:   Use the music with no reference to the author Use the music with a reference, since it's non-profit. Not use the music at all since the melody and rhythm is copyright. Why is sum of squared residuals non-increasing when adding explanatory variable? In my econometric textbook(Introductory Econometrics) covering OLS, the author write, "SSR must fall when another explanatory variable is added."  Why is it? True Definition of the Real Numbers I've found lots of resources that say this is a real number if it's not rational, but what is a real number, really?  I mean what is the definition of a real number?  If nothing else, anyone know of a resource where I could find out myself?  Thanks! Can we clarify to the OP that their question is not yet closed and the duplicates are only suggestions?
