My KeyListener isn't working - why?
Unresponsive KeyListener for JFrame
What is a "good fit" Brier score and Harrell's C Index I'm wondering how can I simulate a sample of n Weibull distribution lifetimes that include Type I right-censored observations. For instance lets have the n = 3, shape = 3, scale = 1 and the censoring rate = .15, and the censoring time = .88.  I know how to generate a Weibull sample but I do not know how to generate a censored data that have type I right-censored in R.  T = rweibull(3, shape=.5, scale=1) Tikz: adjusting pin anchor I was looking for a possibility to adjust the anchor of the text of a pin. Tikz does not allow this out of the box.   This question was already asked on the mailing list , Sept. 2009 without any reply till today or feature addition to pgf/tikz:  \documentclass[tikz]{standalone}  \begin{document}      \begin{tikzpicture}[          every pin/.style={anchor=west},          every pin edge/.style={anchor=west}]          \node [pin=60:test] at (0,1) {};          \node [pin={[anchor=west]60:test}] at (0,0) {};      \end{tikzpicture}  \end{document}   There is also a question with a suggested workaround here on  by defining an aligned pin style consisting of another node positioned at the end of the pin using \tikzlastnode:  \tikzset{     aligned pin/.style args={[#1,#2]#3:#4}{         pin={[inner sep=0pt,%               pin distance=#2,% new option, default = 3ex               label={[append after command={%                     node[inner sep=0pt,%                         xshift=-0.1cm,% modified, default = 0                         at=(\tikzlastnode.#3),%                         anchor=#1,%                     ]{#4}%                 }%             ]center:{}}%         ]#3:{}}%     } }   In this code, I have added a second unnamed option for pin distance within the square brackets.  MWE using the workaround showing the desired result:  \documentclass[tikz]{standalone}  \tikzset{     aligned pin/.style args={[#1,#2]#3:#4}{         pin={[inner sep=0pt,%             pin distance=#2,% new option, default = 3ex             label={[append after command={%                     node[%                         inner sep=0pt,%                         xshift=-0.1cm,% modified, default = 0                         at=(\tikzlastnode.#3),%                         anchor=#1,%                     ]{#4}%                 }%             ]center:{}}%         ]#3:{}}%     } } \begin{document} \tikz[pin distance=15mm, every pin/.style={fill=blue,text=white}] \node [circle,draw,     aligned pin={[west,3ex]0:X-Value},%     aligned pin={[west,3ex]45:Y-Value},%     aligned pin={[west,3ex]90:Z-Value}] {my circle}; \end{document}     I would like to add further options such as pin edge to adjust the style of the edge. Another addition would be xshift to finetune the position of the text (and yshift).  Is it possible to change the workaround to allow named options with default values if not specified?  Usage could look like this (without using necessarily all options):  node[aligned pin={[pin anchor=west,pin distance=1cm,pin edge={thick}]90:{txt}}]{};   If someone is interested in the implementation of the pin feature in tikz see  and do a textsearch for pin.  Update after answer by Qrrbrbirlbel:  To achieve almost the same result as my MWE use following code  % use preamble from Qrrbrbirlbel answer \begin{document}  \begin{tikzpicture}[every pin/.append style=draw, every pin edge/.style={thick}] \node[c] [ pin={[pin anchor=south west,pin edge pin anchor=south west,pin distance=6ex]90:Z-Value}, pin={[pin anchor=west,pin edge pin anchor=west,pin distance=6ex]45:Y-Value}, pin={[pin anchor=west,pin edge pin anchor=west,pin distance=6ex]0:X-Value} ] at (0,0) {}; \end{tikzpicture}  \end{document}     However, I would like to finetune the text positioning using inner sep=0 and a slight shift:  \newlength{\xshiftlength} \setlength{\xshiftlength}{0.5\widthof{Z}}   Following works:  \tikzset{   pin inner xsep/.style={tikz@pin@post/.append style={inner xsep=#1}} }   Apparently xshift cannot be added in the same way. It shifts more than only the text. How could a pin text xshift be added? InDesign: How to restore text-frame position/size to be managed by the master page instead of the actual page? I have some designer that moved slightly a text-frame and in order to be managed again by the master page we need to remove the page and create a new one inserting the content in it.  Is there any different way to do it?  I would like to be able to restore the "power" of positioning/size to the master page because now we need to change the master-page to position the text-frame a little bit to the right and in the case above mentioned will not be updated.  Thanks Is it possible in Latex to make a triangular hat? The one that is used in math over three letters representing points to indicate a triangle.  Something like: Google street view URL Hi I have the address of a property and my application can launch a browser to go to . If a good match is found it will take it directly there. Is there any thing I can append to the url to make it switch to streetview without having the exact coordinates? I dont't want to code any javascript or flash. How can one change a coordinate system for a .lasd (Lidar) dataset?  The file is currently in UTM_Zone_15N and I am trying to convert it to IL_East. How can I find $\lim_{n\to \infty} a_n$ Let $$a_n=\left(1-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt2}\right)\dots \left(1-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{n+1}}\right),n\ge1$$ Then find $\lim_{n\to \infty} a_n$.   How can I proceed? I am stuck at the first step. Please help. Possible to have 2 unity launchers? Need to understand parallel query execution error Today we experienced a degradation in performance on our production sql server.  Durring the time this occurred we logged several "The query processor could not start the necessary thread resources for parallel query execution" errors.  The reading that I've done suggests that this has to do with how many CPUs to use when executing a complex query.  However when I checked during the outage our CPU Utilization was only at 7%.  Is there something else this could be referring too that I haven't come across yet?  Is this a likely culprit of the performance degradation or am I chasing a red herring?  My sp_configure values for this are as follows:  name                                minimum maximum config_value run_value cost threshold for parallelism      0       32767   5            5 How can I get an underbrace and an overbrace to partially overlap in an equation? Sometimes I want to describe portions of an equation using \underbrace and \overbrace in such a way that the portions are not completely distinct, for example:          /-------\ x = A + B + C + D + E     \-------/   \---/      What is the best way to do this? When a Battle Master fighter gets a critical hit and uses a maneuver that adds a superiority die to the damage, is that damage die doubled? The Battle Master fighter has access to a number of maneuvers that add a superiority die to the damage roll. For instance, the Trip Attack maneuver says (PHB, p. 74):     When you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can expend one   superiority die to attempt to knock the target down. You add the   superiority die to the attack’s damage roll, and if the target is   Large or smaller, it must make a Strength saving throw. On a failed   save, you knock the target prone.   The Critical Hits rule states (PHB, p. 196):     When you score a critical hit, you get to roll extra dice for the   attack’s damage against the target. Roll all of the attack’s damage   dice twice and add them together. Then add any relevant modifiers as   normal. [...] If the attack involves other damage dice, such as from   the rogue’s Sneak Attack feature, you roll those dice twice as well.   During our game, the fighter PC rolled a critical hit. He then wanted to use a superiority die to use the Trip Attack maneuver to trip the enemy. Based on the above rules, is the damage from the superiority die also doubled?  I'm assuming the answer is yes based on the last statement in the Critical Hits section, but I wanted to confirm. Why is integration so much harder than differentiation? When I was at school and learning integration in maths class at A Level my teacher wrote things like this on the board.  $$\int f(x)\, dx$$  When he came to explain the meaning of the $dx$, he told us "think of it as a full stop".  For whatever reason I did not raise my hand and question him about it.  But I have always shaken my head at such a poor explanation for putting a $dx$ at the end of integration equations such as these.  To this day I do not know the purpose of the $dx$.  Can someone explain this to me without resorting to grammatical metaphors? Apex Array Slice Sometimes I like to use a Queueable to perform work on a list of Ids or sObjects over the heaver Batchable Interface.   However, to do this, we need a very solid implementation of an Array slice method.  Most other programming languages have a native slice method, but Apex does not.  While I have written my own version of slice and it's working fine, I would be interested in hearing about other implementations of slice - the more efficient the better.  My version is in this Utilities class on github   It's modelled after the Javascript version described on the mozilla site   I would expect that the usage and output be similar to this:  String[] arr = ['zero', 'one', 'two', 'three']; String[] sliced = Utilities.slice(arr,1, 3);  System.debug(arr);      // ['zero', 'one', 'two', 'three'] System.debug(sliced);   // ['one', 'two'] Is it possible that $a_n>0$ and $\sum a_n$ converges then $na_n \to 0$? (without assuming $a_n$ is decreasing) vertical alignment of a turned cell I know using turn command and a sample code like this:  \usepackage{rotating}  \begin{turn}{90} Supervised Learning \end{turn}}   we can rotate a text inside a cell, however, I couldn't find a way to vertically center this rotated text. Any suggestions is appreciated.  Here is the sample MWE:  \begin{table}[]     \centering     \begin{tabular}{|&gt;{\centering\arraybackslash}m{0.5cm}|c|&gt;{\centering\arraybackslash}m{8cm}|}         \hline         \multicolumn{2}{|c|}{Classification} &amp; References \\ \hline         %\multirow{2}{*}{{\begin{turn}{90}Supervised Learning\end{turn}}}            \multirow{2}{*}{\rotatebox[origin=c]{90}{Supervised Learning}}  \end{tabular}     \caption{A Classification}     \label{tab:Machine_Learning_models} \end{table} How to get the result of OnPostExecute() to main activity because AsyncTask is a separate class? Can I change the font systemwide (10.8.3) Is it possible to change the systems font? (finder, alerts, menus etc) I just wanted to make some input where I press a key and the auto-repeat function engages so I don't have to press the 0 key many times to make a long number.  10000000000000000000000000000  This has always worked without fail in the past, but it's not something I do often and I'm not sure where to look next to figure out what might be preventing this.     I've toggled the sliders to change the delay for key repeat, but the only thing I can hang my hat on is that perhaps Lion disables this with the new feature where you hold down some keys (like the vowels, but also some consonants) to get alternate accented characters.  s turns into ß or ś or š and so on....  Am I missing an obvious setting, or is this something that has moved to a hidden setting or is simply a bug that these controls are still around since key repeat is now deprecated?  Comments welcome if anyone doesn't have an answer, but can provide specifics where this does work for them. I've checked two Macs so I'm guessing it's not related to keyboard type or connection method.
