Could Hermione really free the Hogwarts house-elves with her knitted hats? Make flash drive bootable with MULTIPLE Windows Installers "Give a hand" vs "Help" Currently, I'm working in an international company with many non-native speakers (so am I) but with pretty good level of English, I suppose.  I have noticed that my colleagues usually use phrase "give a hand" when asking for  help or even talking about it and seems to be avoiding the strong word "help".  It looks a bit confusing to me especially after I made people laugh when I said  "I will help you" in one of our conversations, don't remember exact context though...  So could you please describe the difference between them? And is there something wrong or hidden meaning with help-based phrase? I want to remove all the files from different directories, and want to keep only latest files 20 files. is this the correct command to do this?  ls -t1 /mnt/dwh/ftp/dwh_ftp_cbs/ARLOGS/ | tail -n +22 | xargs rm -f Maximum weight an average bicycle can carry? When is partial differentiation commutitive Consider a function: $$f:\mathbb R ^2\to\mathbb R $$ when does $$\dfrac {\partial f(x,t)}{\partial t\partial x}=\dfrac {\partial f(x,t)}{\partial x\partial t}$$  Thinking about it in terms of the limit definition of derivative,  and thinking about it as taking slices of surfaces and measuring the slope on the edge, seems to be giving me the feeling that answer is always.  However I have some memories of there being requirements like piecewise continuous, and smooth.   What is the full set of conditions? What are character special and block special files in a unix system? Conjugation: Do we cite authors or papers? When referencing to another work in a scientific paper, do we cite the paper or its author(s)?  This question is intended to clarify the conjugation of the verb that follows the reference -- especially in these cases:   One author, two papers:     Jane Doe (2015a, 2015b) list-s the very specific conditions under which...   -> lists (singular: referencing to Jane Doe) or list (plural: referencing to both papers) Several authors, one paper:     John Doe, et al. (2015) claim-s this and that.   -> claim (plural: referencing to the multiple authors of the paper) or claims (singular: referencing to the single paper). Prove that some topology is not metrizable How to remove link for an application in new Google Launcher? It's not consistent to leave an edit pending for approval (thus not making available for everyone else and locking its state) after a user who has those privileges have given his endorsement.   You could say why don't I improve the edit, but that makes no sense for something that is correct and it would not follow the "keep it simple" policy.  Update:  This is the current time line:   Someone who doesn't know about formatting makes a question. It's not legible A user without edit privileges amends the formatting. The correction is not visible, still not legible. I see the question and the pending revision and then cast my approval. It doesn't take effect yet, still not legible. Even for me if I didn't take care of copying the question source because it disappears from my own revision page!   I might agree that one's approval is indicative of both revision's quality and editor's competence. But we should retain that the main objective is to ask and answer questions. So, I propose this model:   Someone who doesn't know about formatting makes a question. It's not legible A user without edit privileges amends the formatting. The correction is not visible, still not legible. A user with edit privileges cast his approval. Revision takes effect. Although it keeps the pending approval (the Edit (1) button). If a second user with edit privileges cast a rejection, it also takes effect as a rollback.

What is a tensor? I have a pretty good knowledge of physics, but couldn't deeply understand what a  is and why it is so fundamental. I keep hearing a lot about functors in C++. Can someone give me an overview as to what they are and in what cases they would be useful? Invisible space when trying to remove file (but exclude all files in a list)? I'm trying to accomplish a simple task using the excellent post : I would like to remove all files from a folder except those listed in a .txt file contained in the folder. The syntax works fine, but for some reason all files are removed - basically the script is saying that there are no correspondences between the filenames in the folder and those in the .txt file - but I can see that there are!   I thought maybe there might be some invisible white space after my file names that I cannot see (in the folder or the .txt file). But I don't think so...Is there another solution that I am not thinking of?
