Inbox should say what tag wiki I edited
Can the activity dropdown say more than just "+2 tag wiki"?
Relating the Color of meat to doneness I want to know more about how to correlate the color of meat to its level of doneness. How do I recognize how cooked my meat is based solely on color? Receiving Stack Overflow's Chat Notification This is regarding the feature where we can chat regarding a question on SO. There is an automated process for creating the room from comments. It's a very useful feature in case the OP is not able to understand an answer and needs more clarification.  What I don't see is a notification system for chats where there has been an extended period of time between communication.   Let's say someone replied to my chat after a few days, in that case I do not receive any notification.   This happened to me only a few hours ago, where in I had replied to one question but the OP was not available at that point and he replied to me after some days. As I didn't check that chat I had no way of noticing if someone replied to my message and the 48h window after my last activity in that chat, during which I would have received the @ convention ping notification, had already expired.  We receive notification on posts, upvotes that we receive, so why not the chat rooms?   Should there be a notification center like the one for posts (or may be include this in the same center as posts)? A loss and gain problem This is a very simple but confusing puzzle.  A customer buys goods worth $200$ rupees from a shop. The shopkeeper selling these goods makes zero profit from this purchase.  The lady gives him a $1000$ rupee note.  The shopkeeper has no change, so he goes next door to another shopkeeper to get change for the $1000$ rupee note. He keeps $200$ for himself and returns $800$ to the customer.  Later, the second shopkeeper from next door comes back with the $1000$ rupee note with a stamp on it saying "counterfeit" and takes his money back.  How much loss does the first shopkeeper face? is there a better way to do this XML scraping task in R? Trying to open a http website on any web browser (event telnet) gives a ‘ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED’ or ‘connection timed out’.  However, the same sites can be opened using https. I tried doing a traceroute and it works fine.  I am new to OS X but have experience with Linux. How do I go about troubleshooting this issue?  Update  I think I've tracked down the culprit to a rule in pf (firewall).  The result of sudo pfctl -s nat is:  No ALTQ support in kernel ALTQ related functions disabled rdr pass inet proto tcp from 192.168.0.101 to any port = 80 -&gt; 127.0.0.1 port 9882   192.168.0.101 is the current ip address of the computer.  I tried to remove the rule with sudo pfctl -F all, but it is back after a few seconds. I didn't find the rule in the default configurations (/etc/pf.conf). And disabling pf with sudo pfctl -d has no effect on it.  Is this a malware issue? Show that the Sorgenfrey line does not have a countable basis. How to decide which glm family to use? I have fish density data that I am trying to compare between several different collection techniques, the data has lots of zeros, and the histogram looks vaugley appropriate for a poisson distribution except that, as densities, it is not integer data. I am relatively new to GLMs and have spent the last several days looking online for how to tell which distribution to use but have failed utterly in finding any resources that help make this decision. A sample histogram of the data looks like the following:   I have no idea how to go about deciding on the appropriate family to use for the GLM. If anyone has any advice or could give me a resource I should check out, that would be fantastic. Some people love creating or fostering the creation of events that are noisy, chaotic and fun, such as parties, arguments, reunions, etc. Sometimes there's a negative connotation to this (like in provoking an argument), but sometimes there is not (like in organising a big, noisy party).  The word I'm looking for would be the English equivalent to the Spanish armadanzas, just in case this is helpful.  Any ideas? Suppose you have a physical . It is true that as amplitude increases, the period increases. Can we demonstrate this fact without explicitly finding the period (which is pretty involved and pretty messy) in:    an intuitive fashion,  rigorously? This one-liner removes duplicate lines from text input without pre-sorting.  For example:  $ cat &gt;f q w e w r $ awk '!a[$0]++' &lt;f q w e r $    The original code I have found on the internets read:  awk '!_[$0]++'  This was even more perplexing to me as I took _ to have a special meaning in awk, like in Perl, but it turned out to be just a name of an array.  Now, I understand the logic behind the one-liner:  each input line is used as a key in a hash array, thus, upon completion, the hash contains unique lines in the order of arrival.  What I would like to learn is how exactly this notation is interpreted by awk. E.g. what the bang sign (!) means and the other elements of this code snippet.  How does it work? $\int f=0$ implies $f=0$ almost everywhere Let $f$ be nonnegative and measurable. Show that $\int f =0$ implies $f=0$ almost everywhere (except possibly on a set of measure zero).  My thoughts. Take a set E with $m(E) \neq 0$. Suppose $f \neq 0$ on E. That means $\int_E f \neq 0$. Since $f$ is nonnegative this implies $\int f &gt;0$. That contradicts the given information, so $f$ must be 0 almost everywhere. How can I pay tolls on Japanese expressways? I'm renting a car soon in Japan and am planning to travel on the expressways. What's the best way to pay tolls? An example of a norm which can't be generated by an inner product I realize that every inner product defined on a vector space can give rise to a norm on that space.  The converse, apparently is not true.  I'd like an example of a norm which no inner product can generate. Google map signed api key errors in Android Launch app only if not already open Why would spacetime curvature cause gravity? It is fine to say that for an object flying past a massive object, the spacetime is curved by the massive object, and so the object flying past follows the curved path of the geodesic, so it "appears" to be experiencing gravitational acceleration. Do we also say along with it, that the object flying past in reality exeriences NO attraction force towards the massive object? Is it just following the spacetime geodesic curve while experiencing NO attractive force?  Now come to the other issue: Supposing two objects are at rest relative to each other, ie they are not following any spacetime geodesic. Then why will they experience gravitational attraction towards each other? E.g. why will an apple fall to earth? Why won't it sit there in its original position high above the earth? How does the curvature of spacetime cause it to experience an attraction force towards the earth, and why would we need to exert a force in reverse direction to prevent it from falling? How does the curvature of spacetime cause this?  When the apple was detatched from the branch of the tree, it was stationary, so it did not have to follow any geodesic curve. So we cannot just say that it fell to earth because its geodesic curve passed through the earth. Why did the spacetime curvature cause it to start moving in the first place? What is the relationship between MIME types and File .extensions? I may have the wrong idea here, but I thought that:    MIME types are identifying codes, embedded inside a file. File .extensions are idenifying codes, suffixed to the file's name.   I thought, from something I heard in the dim dark ages, that Linux was .extension agnostic... ( maybe it was in the early days, and things have changed since then...? )  I've recently come from the Windows world, where, at the Operating-System level, a file .extension is the only way (as far as I know) to associate it with its relevant Application program.    Because I don't know why, I find it a bit disconcerting that a file named  "fred" and a file named "fred.txt" both open up in a Text Editor.    Is there a clear-cut hierarchy at work here? Learning and using English I'm always confused about what word to use for referring to things that have been described by me a few sentences earlier: "that" or "this".   Confusion comes from the fact that only the equivalent of "this" is always used in my native language for such referring. But I've noticed that in English for such referring "that" is used as often as "this" (or maybe even more often).  Some examples for illustrating (just tried to google something appropriate to convey my idea better):     We assess local... the demographics of the local population. What are the natural traffic drivers in the area. Things like cinemas and pubs and retail and office and all that type of things and we now put together a bit of a matrix and actually give a weighted score to each of the things we know help our business. That helps us decide in a more scientific fashion.   or:     The problem of Cervantes' origin became after that into a tough matter. Some experts believed that the Cervantes from Alcázar, in the times of the Lepanto Battle, was in the age of a child, more concerned about gathering nests and that type of things than about fighting as a soldier.   and for "this":     I believe lot of people who involved fishery industries in Mexico Gulf are suffering now but as for economic issues, U.S government and other countries will support them and give an utmost response to it. Important thing is that we learn from this mistake and make sure this type of things will never happen in the future and protect nature environment thus we have to take this technology to get energy from water very seriously. I really hope this technology will be available and used for everybody as soon as possible.   Is there a rule describing proper usage of these words in cases like this? (or should I have written "..in cases like that"?) Why KL divergence is non-negative? Why is KL divergence non-negative?  From the perspective of information theory, I have such an intuitive understanding:  Say there are two ensembles $A$ and $B$ which are composed of the same set of elements labeled by $x$. $p(x)$ and $q(x)$ are different probability distributions over ensemble $A$ and $B$ respectively.   From the perspective of information theory, $\log_{2}(P(x))$ is the least amount of bits that required for recording an element $x$ for ensemble $A$. So that the expectation $$\sum_{x \in  ensemble}-p(x)\ln(p(x))$$ can be interpreted as at least how many bits that we need for recording an element in $A$ on average.   Since this formula puts a lower bound on the bits that we need on average, so that for a different ensemble $B$ which brings about a different probability distribution $q(x)$, the bound that it gives for each element $x$ will surely not bit that is given by $p(x)$, which means taking the expectation, $$\sum_{x\in ensemble}-p(x)\ln(q(x))$$ this average length will surely be greater than the former one, which leads to $$\sum_{x\in ensemble }p(x)\frac{\ln(p(x))}{\ln(q(x))} &gt; 0$$  I don't put $\ge$ here since $p(x)$ and $q(x)$ are different.  This is my intuitive understanding, is there a purely mathematical way of proving KL divergence is non-negative? The problem can be stated as:  Given $p(x)$ and $q(x)$ are both positive over real line, and $\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}p(x)dx = 1$, $\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}q(x)dx = 1$.  Prove $$\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}p(x)\ln\frac{p(x)}{q(x)}$$ is non-negative.  How can this be proved? Or can this be proved without extra conditions? When would I need a SecureString in .NET?
