How can I find the name of a Package?
Is there a way to Inset in the opposite direction (not Outset)? Is there an operation similar to inset that creates faces in the opposite direction? That is, instead of creating faces inwards, they create faces outwards? A normal inset operation:  What I would like: Copy current terminal prompt to clipboard Is there a way to copy the currently written content of the bash prompt? Say I wrote:  ping www.google.com   so that the lines in terminal looks like:  petr@sova:~$ ping www.google.com   and didn't hit return yet. I want to copy that text to clipboard. Is that possible?  The usual usecase would be hitting up several times and finding a command which I want to copy. When drawing a line between two nodes in TikZ, you can specify the anchors on the beginning and end nodes in order to control how the line is drawn.  I would like to specify the anchor on the beginning node, and the angle at which the line is drawn, and let TikZ figure out where it will intercept the end node.  The usual use case is when I'm connecting to a "big node" and I would like the lines to be vertical.  I can cheat by placing a coordinate behind the big node, drawing a line to the coordinate instead, and then drawing the big node so that it covers things up.  However this won't work if I need to put an arrow on the end.  I could try to calculate the intercept coordinate on the edge of the big node manually, but that seems against the TikZ spirit.  |- doesn't work in this case.  \documentclass[10pt]{minimal} \usepackage[active,tightpage,pdftex]{preview} \usepackage{tikz}  \begin{document} \begin{preview}  \tikzstyle{RectObject}=[rectangle,fill=white,draw,line width=0.5mm] \tikzstyle{line}=[draw] \tikzstyle{arrow}=[draw, -latex]   \begin{tikzpicture}   %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%   %%  LEFT SIDE   %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%   \draw (1,0) node[RectObject] (Small1A) {A};   \draw (3,0) node[RectObject] (Small1B) {B};   \coordinate (Cheat1A) at (1,2);   \coordinate (Cheat1B) at (3,2);   \path [line] (Small1A.north) -- (Cheat1A);   \path [line] (Small1B.north) -- (Cheat1B);    % need to draw Big Node last to cover up our cheating   \draw (2,2) node[RectObject, inner xsep=1cm] (Big1) {Big Node};    \draw (2,4) node[text width=4cm] (text1) {L: Cheating to control line orientation.

The left side of this example shows what I want to be able to do, except I want to do it without cheating, and I'd like to put arrows on the end of the lines. Change desktop background to a solid color (e.g. pitch black) in GNOME 3 Using the uncertainty principle to estimate the ground state energy of hydrogen I have been reading through this  of the ground state energy of hydrogen  and others like it. In this one it says it is using the uncertainty principal but then proceeded to use the following: $$pr=\hbar$$ But why is it not using: $$pr=\frac{\hbar}{2}$$ which is more in line with the uncertainty principle and what comes earlier in the derivation. I would appreciate it if someone could refer me to a proof (or simply give one here) for the statement in the title. That is:  If $k&lt;n$, then every $k-$dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ has $n-$dimensional Lebesgue measure zero.  I've seen some proofs that use Sard's lemma but I'm not really familiar with that subject and I've never seen a proof of said lemma so I'd appreciate a proof that doesn't use it if possible.  Thanks in advance! How could a statement be true without proof? How do I prove the sequence $x_{n+1}=\sqrt{\alpha +x_n}$, with $x_0=\sqrt \alpha$ converges? ( boundedness?) Website is under maintenance - how to restrict access? I am doing some forecasting in R using Rob Hyndman's forecast package. The paper belonging to the package can be found .  In the paper, after explaining the automatic forecasting algorithms, the authors implement the algorithms on the same data set. However, after estimating both an exponential smoothing and ARIMA model they make a statement I do no understand (on page 17):     Note that the information criteria are not comparable.    I thought that an advantage of using AIC for model selection is that we can compare AIC values from different models, as long as they are estimated using the same data set. Is this incorrect?  This matter is of particular interest to me, as I was planning on combining forecasts from different model classes (e.g. exponential smoothing and ARIMA) using so called Akaike weights (see Burnham and Anderson, 2002, for discussion on Akaike weights)  References   Burnham, K. P., &amp; Anderson, D. R. (2002). Model selection and multi-model inference: a practical information-theoretic approach. Springer Verlag. Obviously you need to have some high level idea of what's going on in the world around the players, and where you are heading with the story, but in an ongoing game at some point players will be players and will head off in a different direction to what you planned.  How far ahead should you be planning to minimise or eliminate being caught off guard, but also try to minimise the amount of 'wasted content' you come up with but never gets used? When is the present perfect tense used instead of the past tense?    I know that the present perfect tense is used when some adverbs (e.g., never, ever) are present in the sentence; the same is true for sentences like the following one.     When you returned, I have been at home since 3:00 PM.   In which other cases should I use the present perfect? Do the following sentences require it?     I have walked downtown everyday for a year.        I have been at home since 3:00 PM.

Wavy stream of liquid Net work done on the body when we lift it and put it on the table is zero? Proof that exponential function's limit definition increases monotonically? It is well known that we can define $e^x$ by the following limit  $$e^{x}=\lim_{n\to\infty}\left(1+{x\over n}\right)^n$$  I would like to show that the RHS sequence is always less than or equal to $e^x$ for all $-n\le x\le0$ and $n&gt;1$, and what I had currently done is to study the property of this sequence (which is defined as $f(x)$)  $$f(x)=\left(1+{x\over n}\right)^n$$  I also find its first and second derivative $f'(x)=\left(1+{x\over n}\right)^{n-1}$ and $f''(x)={n-1\over n}\left(1+{x\over n}\right)^n$ and show that they are strictly positive for all $x\in[-n,0]$. As a result $f(x)$ is monotonically increasing and concave up. By plugging in the end points I found that $f(0)=1\le e^0$ and $f(-n)=0&lt;e^{-n}$, I wonder if these conditions allow me conclude that $f(x)\le e^x$ for all $x\in[-n,0]$.
