Why does apt removes unwanted packages when giving * as suffix?
apt-get remove with wildcard removed way more than expected. why?
Wifi Automatically Turning ON after iOS 11 Update Tag score calculation wrong in Android App I checked yesterday and today the new homepage in the Android app. Very surprised I saw that I would almost reach a silver tag badge, that confused be because I always take a look on possible badges I can get. However I compared the score with the website and I got a total different results. See this two screenshots: Summing the power series $\sum\limits_{n=0}^\infty (-1)^n \frac{x^{2n+1}}{2n+1}\prod\limits_{k=1}^n\frac{2k-1}{2k} $ I'd like to determine the function corresponding to the following power series: $$x + \sum_{n=1}^\infty (-1)^n\frac{1\cdot3\cdot5\cdots(2n-1)}{2\cdot4\cdot6\cdots2n} \frac{x^{2n+1}}{2n+1}, $$ where $|x|&lt;1$. .NET - How can you split a "caps" delimited string into an array? How do I go from this string: "ThisIsMyCapsDelimitedString"  ...to this string: "This Is My Caps Delimited String"  Fewest lines of code in VB.net is preferred but C# is also welcome.  Cheers! Support for OpenID ended on July 25, 2018 Is there a standard and accepted method for selecting the number of layers, and the number of nodes in each layer, in a feed-forward neural network? I'm interested in automated ways of building neural networks. How to cd into a directory with this name "-2" (starting with the hyphen)? I have a directory named:  -2   I want to cd into it but the cd complains:  bash: cd: -2: invalid option   With no success, I've tried:  cd "-2" cd '-2' cd \-2   Any solution?  Edit: no file browsers like mc, etc. available on the server. GUID COMB strategy in EF "The operation couldn’t be completed. (BKAgentServiceErrorDomain error 8.)" Is it possible to colour or put textures on Bevel curves? So with my model, I've been struggling to create hair because it always looked weird or off and recently I discovered the "Bevel Curve" addon and it's an absolute lifesaver.   So I converted the bevels into mesh to colour it, except it lags blender like crazy and I need this model for a video game I'm currently developing called Candles(so I can't upload the model, sorry) but I was wondering, is it possible to put a texture on a bevel curve like you would mesh or any other method or giving it colour? I am trying to disable the touchscreen on my Asus S200E laptop.  In Ubuntu 16.04, I was able to do so with this:  Section "InputClass"     Identifier "evdev touchscreen catchall"     MatchIsTouchscreen "on"     MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"     Driver "libinput" EndSection   How can this be done on Ubuntu 18.04? I am considering buying my first DSLR.  How do I know whether I need a 18-200 lens, 17-85, or 18-55? Or something else? Context  I'm having trouble understanding the limited situations in which qualifiers can be distributed.  I am given that the rules are:  $$\forall x\left[P(x)\land Q(x)\right]\equiv\forall xP(x) \land\forall xQ(x) \tag{1}$$ $$\exists x\left[P(x)\lor Q(x)\right]\equiv\exists xP(x) \lor\exists xQ(x) \tag{2}$$  $$\forall x\left[P(x)\lor Q(x)\right]\not\equiv\forall xP(x) \lor\forall xQ(x) \tag{3}$$ $$\exists x\left[P(x)\land Q(x)\right]\not\equiv\exists xP(x) \land\exists xQ(x) \tag{4}$$    Questions   What are examples of $P(x)$ and $Q(x)$ that illustrate when these statements are true? How can I show these statements always hold using proofs? Why can't "$\forall x$" be distributed in example 3 or "$\exists x$" in example 4? I have a vector file containing thousands of points. Where points are within x distance from each other, I wish to delete one of the points and keep the other (either by snapping to one point, or simply erasing one of the two points)  However, in Whitebox the vector cleaning tool only works with polygons and lines.  Is there some other way I can do this with my shapefiles? I have a SCSI disk in a server (hardware Raid 1), 32G, ext3 filesytem. df tells me that the disk is 100% full. If I delete 1G this is correctly shown.  However, if I run a du -h -x / then du tells me that only 12G are used (I use -x because of some Samba mounts).  So my question is not about subtle differences between the du and df commands but about how I can find out what causes this huge difference?  I rebooted the machine for a fsck that went w/out errors. Should I run badblocks? lsof shows me no open deleted files, lost+found is empty and there is no obvious warn/err/fail statement in the messages file.  Feel free to ask for further details of the setup. Maximum number of files in one ext3 directory while still getting acceptable performance? I have an application writing to an ext3 directory which over time has grown to roughly three million files. Needless to say, reading the file listing of this directory is unbearably slow.  I don't blame ext3. The proper solution would have been to let the application code write to sub-directories such as ./a/b/c/abc.ext rather than using only ./abc.ext.  I'm changing to such a sub-directory structure and my question is simply: roughly how many files should I expect to store in one ext3 directory while still getting acceptable performance? What's your experience?  Or in other words; assuming that I need to store three million files in the structure, how many levels deep should the ./a/b/c/abc.ext structure be?  Obviously this is a question that cannot be answered exactly, but I'm looking for a ball park estimate. How to factor numbers that are the product of two primes Number of isosceles triangle. What is the right way to consistently mangle bash terminal? I'm on OSX 10.11.1 and occasionally my bash terminal gets mangled. It often happens when I accidentally cat a binary file. The result can be seen on the image below. The output becomes weird, and I can't type ascii characters anymore.    Even though this happens occasionally, I couldn't find a way to consistently reproduce the issue. Online search recommends doing cat /bin/*, but that works sporadically, only after a couple dozen tries.  I want to do this so I can find an easy solution how to handle this in tmux.  How do I consistently get bash to a "mangled" state? Is there maybe a magic unicode character that can do this? Is it permissible to use somebody else's words (without quotations) to describe a concept once their work is cited? Quite often one comes across a really succinct and precise explanation of a concept. I'm wondering if it is permissible to use this explanation verbatim, if the source work is cited in your paper (next to the explanation)? What's in question here is at most 3 sentences.
