Why is foo.hasOwnProperty('__proto__') equal to false?
Where the property "__proto_" is stored?
Notation: Why write the differential first? I made a map with annotations in QGIS 3.0.  This is how it looks like in the layout view:    If I print the map as PDF, one would expect to get the PDF to be WYSIWYG, right? However, it looks like this (it's about half the size):    Is there a way to influence the the scaling of the Annoations? I already tried to play with the Scale and Magnifier in the map view. I also tried to change the Scale in the map item.   The strange thing is, I believe it worked a few days ago. But today I installed QGIS 3.0 on a new PC and it showed the same behaviour... Setting ArcGIS Desktop license to lower level for testing whether Python script still runs? I have a Python script that will need to be given to a client.   We are currently evaluating what license level the client will need in order to run the script for their software acquisition purposes.   We all have ArcGIS 10.1 Advanced license in our company.   I checked all the tools and extensions used in the script against the web help and found that they should work on the Standard license level.   Is there a way I can test the script against the Standard license level, when we have no Standard license level in or company (only the higher Advanced level)? I have a Python program that uses the "threading" module. Once every second, my program starts a new thread that fetches some data from the web, and stores this data to my hard drive. I would like to use sqlite3 to store these results, but I can't get it to work. The issue seems to be about the following line:  conn = sqlite3.connect("mydatabase.db")    If I put this line of code inside each thread, I get an OperationalError telling me that the database file is locked. I guess this means that another thread has mydatabase.db open through a sqlite3 connection and has locked it. If I put this line of code in the main program and pass the connection object (conn) to each thread, I get a ProgrammingError, saying that SQLite objects created in a thread can only be used in that same thread.   Previously I was storing all my results in CSV files, and did not have any of these file-locking issues. Hopefully this will be possible with sqlite. Any ideas? Consequences of a master thesis with errors I finished my master thesis 6 years ago, since then I gained a lot of experience on my field and also in academia. I can say that in that time I was a "child" , very inexperienced. I think that also my advisor did not help a lot, and I tried to do  a lot of things by my own, without someone to really review my things. Despite that, I still received a good mention by the master committee on final results.   Some days ago, I just decided to read part of master thesis, and I just realized a big nightmare coming. I identified a lot of typos, some references errors, and some improvements that I should do, but I did not. The worst thing is that I wrote a paper to a conference with my master thesis results (and some errors are there). The conference is not a high impact conference, but still the paper has my name and is available for everyone...   As I am finishing my PhD studies for now, I am concerning a lot that situation. My dream and goal is to pursue a Professor career. So, my questions are: What are (or could be) the consequences of a master thesis and paper with errors (some minor and some major) in academia? Revoke degree after years by errors in master is possible ( I am concerning a lot this situation that I thought on it)? How can I minimize it (I thought that I can put a fixed version of my thesis and paper in the future, for instance on my personal website)? How those errors can impact me in a Professor recruitment process?  Sorry for the long text, I am blaming myself all the time, and really afraid about the possibilities since I know that Academia career is really competitive. SubView slide in animation, iphone How to strike through obliquely, e.g. to indicate cancellation? How can I strike through an expression (e.g. "2x") obliquely, e.g. from bottom left to top right, so as to indicate cancellation? With the \sout command from the ulem package, I can only strike horizontally. Are groups satisfying $g=g^{-1}$ for all $g \in G$ abelian? Is the following statement true or false:  If $G$ is a group with the property that $g=g^{-1}$ for all $g \in G$, then $G$ is abelian.   I believe it is false since I know that abelian or commutative property implies that every element in $G$ must have an inverse. Thus $g\cdot g^{-1}= g^{1}\cdot g = e$. I need someone to check my attempt. Why are local variables not initialized in Java? How to escape ampersand in \acro command? I am trying to use the acronym package to create an acronym list. The problem is that one of the acronyms I need to use contains an ampersand ('&amp;').  But when I try to compile the .tex file I get this error:  ! Missing \endcsname inserted. &lt;to be read again&gt;                     \&amp; l.2 ...&amp;M}[\AC@hyperlink{M\&amp;M}{M\&amp;M}]{I like them}   Here is an example:  \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{acronym}  \begin{document}  \begin{acronym} \acro{M\&amp;M}{I like them} \end{acronym}  \end{document}   So how do I use an ampersand in an acronym using the acronym package?  More generally, how is it possible to apply special formatting to a single acronym? For example  \acro{\textit{IAF}}{Italic acronym frenzy} Clarifying question on meaning of derivative of a linear transformation In my analysis class, my professor (and the textbook) reference the fact that $\mathbf{D}T(\bar{x}) = T$ for any $\bar{x} \in \mathbb{R}^n$ where $T \in \mathcal{L}(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{R}^n) $. I'm wondering about the precise meaning of this statement. Is it that the differential of any linear transformation is also linear? Or is that the differential of any linear transformation is itself (and therefore also linear)? The second seems confusing to me because the derivative of a function is often not itself. For example, $f(x) = 2x$ is a linear transformation but $f'(x) = 2 \ne 2x$ for all $x \in \mathbb{R}$. I add js file with drupal_add_js in hook_form_alter, it is ok and I see it in list of js loaded in page, but when I submit form and form not validate and return to that form (after validation failed) I don't see js files that added to form, why this happened? and how can add my js file in that form after validation failed ?   some part of my code   function mymodle_form_alter(&amp;$form, $form_state, $form_id) {   if ($form_id == 'news_node_form') {     drupal_add_js(drupal_get_path('module', 'mymodule') . '/js/mymodulejsfile.js'); //, array('scope' =&gt; 'footer','weight' =&gt; 10));   } }   code work correctly in add and edit form, but when form submit and validation failed it show validation error but my js file not loaded in page (I checked html source and check firebug script files), but there is not my js file, Proof that the set of irrational numbers is dense in reals Is there any way to get real-time compilation for LaTeX? I would really love to have a software or tool which provided real time compilation of my LaTeX document (to be able to see the final pdf or dvi document as I type the latex code), especially for when I am drawing pictures using tikZ. So far, I know of two things, but none of them work for me. They are:   : This is only for tikZ, which would be perfect for me, but unfortunately as far as I know it only works with Ubuntu and Debian, and I use Mac OS X (so I have never actually tried it, though I did dig a lot to see whether I would be able to install on my mac and from what I see it is really what I want - I am even considering installing Ubuntu just to use it!). : This is a minor mode for Emacs. It was extremely hard to get it to work on the mac (see my quest ), and it is not all that fast. The speed is not all that big of a deal for me, but the fact that it does not work with tikZ pictures is (the nodes all collapse in one point so that the words are all one on the top of the other).   So my question is: is there a software ideally like KtikZ or another type of editor which provides real-time compilation and that I can use on my mac? I guess if you know of a Windows/Linux option I would also like to know, and the same for a way to set up a script to get the document compiled every 5 seconds or so (I am sure I have seen this written somewhere, but I don't know whether I can do it with a mac or whether it is editor/pdf viewer dependent), but what I really want is a software/tool which would work with a mac.  To be clear, I am not after something like LyX, that is, I am not after a WYSIWYG-type thing, but rather something where I can type real LaTeX and see my code, but have at the same time another window showing me the pdf (or dvi) file compiled.

Anyone else encountered this problem? How does Java's PreparedStatement work? I am planning to replace repeatedly executed Statement objects with PreparedStatement objects to improve performance. I am using arguments like the MySQL function now(), and string variables.   Most of the PreparedStatement queries I have seen contained constant values (like 10, and strings like "New York") as arguments used for the ? in the queries. How would I go about using functions like now(), and variables as arguments? Is it necessary to use the ?s in the queries instead of actual values? I am quite confounded. I already have cast iron skillet but I can't find a decent "normal" pan, for eggs and stuff, sometimes steaks, more or less general purpose.   Here are some more features: high quality, durable, non stick, oven safe, dish washer safe, extremely flat surface - not to be higher in the middle, this is very important.  Of course pricier usually means better quality, but is it worth it based on the criteria I'm after? Is it likely to be worth going from pans below $60, to pans from $60 to $130, or to pans over $130? How do you overlay an image on a shader in Cycles? Group theoretic meaning of natural isomorphisms between certain functors So imagine you have a group $G$ and we consider the set of group homomorphisms from $\mathbb{Z}$ to  $G$ specified by  $\forall g$ $\in G$ $\exists$   $\phi(1)=g$. Each of these homomorphisms is in 1-1 relation with the elements of $G$.  Consider groups for a moment in the context of category theory, viewing the groups as one object categories and thereof group homomorphism as functors. What would a natural isomorphism mean in group theory terms for G?  My thoughts are that the natural transformations equate to maps between homomorphisms and since the homomorphisms are in 1-1 relation with the elements of G, then a natural transformation is a map between group elements, i.e another element of the group. I'm not entirely convinced by this.   Anyway continuing my reasoning a natural isomorphism is a map between the homomorphisms that has an inverse, the thing is in relation to the elements of G this is every element? Furthermore I'm looking to find an equivalence class defined by this natural isomorphism, is this just a collection of the elements that are each others inverses?
