How to animate A curve segment?
banner set interval creating a db schema I am trying to create a schema page in LaTeX. It shall look like this.   How can I create schema code which look like this image? There should be also a click to go function. When the user clicks on the user_schema link he should be redirected to that page.  What classes I can use for this? Any suggestions would be appreciated.    \documentclass{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  \begin{document} \maketitle  \section{User schema} \mySchema{Users} {     _id: ObjectId - Id do registro     name: String - Nome do usuário     date: Date - Data de Cadastro     ren_date: Date - Data de renovação do Cadastro     email: String - Lorem ipsum dolorsitamet, consecteturadipisicingelit, sed do eiusmodtemporincididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

The first resource I had access to--I have to do a bit of digging for the exact paper--of course addressed that this invariant takes the tensor form: $$ ds^2 = g_{\mu \nu}dx^{\mu}dx^{\nu} $$ as well. This two things I've seen in all of my texts and online resources regarding resources. The element in question that varies between authors, is the time coordinate, $ x^0 $. When it was first explained to me, it was using the standard Cartesian representation for the spatial portion of the coordinates, and the time coordinate was labeled as $ x^0 = ict $. Squaring gives $ (x^0)^2 = -c^2t^2 $, and applying differential calculus, we get $ (dx^0)^2 = -c^2dt^2 $. Sensible and expected to have the tensor formula spit out the Minkowski Metric. The author then later explicitly states the coordinates are $ x^0 = ict, x^1=x,x^2=y,$ and $x^3 = z$.  My questions is then, why is it most authors on the subject omit the imaginary unit on the time coordinate? For example, .   The only reason I can fathom omission is if the author is using metric signature $ [+,-,-,-] $, where I started off learning the theory with signature $ [-,+,+,+] $ which may be the reason seeing the time coord with no imaginary unit seems dissonant to me. All help appreciated!  Edit: After reading the other answers, my questions is now one of why and how (mathematically) do we obtain the Minkowski Metric Signature. More specifically the one element with a different sign. Duty Free in the USA. Why do I have to be given my purchase as I board the plane? I am not one for buying things in airports but recently my wife asked me to get her an alcoholic beverage while flying from the USA to Ireland (JFK-DUB). I made the purchase in JFK and was surprised to be told I had to collect it when departing for my flight as I board the plane. The sales assistant's English wasn't their best so I may have misheard and my Yorkshire twang may have thrown her, but I was somewhat surprised as to why I couldn't carry the bag myself to the plane.  Is there a law that prevents me from carrying my purchase to the plane or is this an added service I was charged, which I was duped into paying?  When boarding the plane there were several others who had to pick up their sealed duty free bags (why sealed?) so it wasn't just me. No explanation was given. Just freeze an application (suspend the CPU, save its state to disk) and 'defrost' it when I want to use it 4 weeks later. Using matplotlib in pygame I am having problems starting my Apache server, because port 443 is already in use.  It turns out, the system process (PID 4) uses the port 443. I don't have IIS installed, the services.msc shows (predictably) no Exchange server running, nor WWW-Services, nor IIS. I have no idea how to find out what service uses that port, short of just disabling each service one after the other, and I am not even sure that would help.  I would be grateful if someone could point me towards how I can get my SSL port back, thank you :)  P.S.: Of course "just switch Apache to another port for SSL" would solve the problem of not being able to start Apache. But I'd still like to know what is so insistent about hogging port 443. :)    I by now took the 'hard route' and disabled services one after the other. It turned out that the "Routing and RAS" service was the culprit.  Thank you all for the valuable input and the new tools in the combat against "WTF does my system do now?". Disable Debug Log Programmatically I'm trying to disable WP_DEBUG_LOG if and only if debug.log exists. I'd like to hook into wp_footer and test if the file exists and if so disable my debug log. All I've found though is that WP_DEBUG_LOG is a constant and can only be changed from the wp-config.php file which is too early for my case. Is there a way to change it from a constant on install and keep it working as normal?   My only other thought is to create an option on install in the options table and just check it every time wp-config loaded to see if the value has changed but I was wanting to avoid that.   Granted I could check if the file exists before I define WP_DEBUG_LOG but somebody would have to view a page twice before debug log actually exists and is detected by the file_exists() (since it's run very early) which is not optimal.  Does anybody know of a workaround to programmatically turn off WP_DEBUG_LOG? What does DISPLAY=:0.0 actually mean? For an isolated system, can the entropy decrease or increase? In any sizable system, the number of equilibrium states are much, much greater then the number of non-equilibrium states. Since each accessible micro state is equally probably, it is overwhelmingly likely that we will find the system in an equilibrium state.   However, for a closed system, one that does not interact with any external system, the number of micro states is fixed. Therefore the entropy is fixed.  At any given time, the system will be in one of its micro states. Even if the system is in a micro state that does not look like equilibrium from a macroscopic point of view, its entropy will remain the same, since entropy is a property of all the micro states, not just a given micro state.   So, are the number of accessible micro states (and hence entropy) of an isolated system constant? I'm in a numerical analysis course right now and it's pretty rigorous but I'm enjoying it a lot. I took a lower level course before that was more oriented towards implementation of numerical methods, so it's not my first time with the material.  Anyway, my professor wrote his own course notes and they're fantastic but I wanted some reference material since I'm currently outlining my own notes. Just wondering what the big ones out there are  edit: I would say I'm at an advanced undergraduate level How do I work with GUI tools over a remote server? sudo: unable to resolve host   I think I need to edit the /etc/hosts file to make an entry for 127.0.1.1 PC name.

Using NPN transistor as switch Almost half of disk space unaccounted for on Windows 7 computer I'm trying to determine what's eating almost half of disk on my Windows 7 Lenovo laptop but haven't been able to determine what.  I read some of the answers on this site but none of the causes seems to be the cause of my problem.  What I've done so far:   Checked Windows' System Restore points but only minimum use, either way I deleted around 2GB if usage from there Used WinDirStat and it came back with a total of 71.3GB usage at the root level C Drives properties says 135GB being used out of 138 GB total, ie, 135 GB - 71.3GB = 63.7GB missing somewhere No "Unknown" files reported by WinDirStat Windows Disk Management utility doesn't report any unused partitions or unclaimed space chkdsk comes out clean Windows disk cleanup tool doesn't report anything big, just small stuff in the lower MB range Lenovo backup tool hasn't been used nor there is a folder for the backup images   Any idea on what to look at and/or do?

Options are   a: $\infty$  b: $0$  c: $1$  d: $2$ Dynamic Table partitioning on a daily basis I have a SQL Server database which contains two tables -- Acks and Logs.  These two tables are related in logic but not in a relational database way. Basically, every message that comes in gets saved in the Log table and, if our server acknowledges it, then that ack gets stored in the Ack table.  We are storing around 5 million Acks and 3 million Logs a day. I am trying to partition these two tables on a daily boundary so that we can easily remove older partitions from the table, and also improve query performance.  I haven't done table partitioning before, so I have been reading some on-line tutorials, however I am stuck on one thing. All the tutorials I have followed seem to manually add filegroups and manually add boundaries.  I want SQL Server somehow to do this daily, and this is what my question is about. I need it to create the new filegroups for the next day, every day at, say, 22:00. Then at 24:00 the inserts should start filling up the new day's partition.  Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to achieve this? Either a comprehensive tutorial or some good old advice will do as well.  My second question: can I somehow apply the same partition function to the two different tables?  They both have a datetime(2) column on which I want to partition, and the same rules  will apply.  How does that then fit in with my filegroups? Do I need a single filegroup for the day? Will each table have a file in that filegroup, or will both tables save to the same file in the filegroup?  Do I have to make a .mdf and .ldf for each filegroup? Or is there still one log file for the entire database? Want to fill line with repeating string Similar to the \dotfill command, but with your own text, rather than dots.  If the string was: kitty!  The entire line would look like the following: kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!kitty!  Is there any way to do this? I'm adding two footnotes to a section heading:  \documentclass{article} \usepackage[english]{babel} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage{lipsum}  \usepackage[stable]{footmisc}  \usepackage{titlesec}  \begin{document} \section{test \footnote{This is footnote no1.} \footnote{This is footnote no2.} } \lipsum[4] \end{document}   The heading will have both of the footnotes, but at the end of the page only the second is displayed. The problem appears to be \usepackage{titlesec}, because it works fine without it.    Stuff I specified in \usepackage{titlesec}:  \renewcommand\thesection{\arabic{section}}  \renewcommand\thesubsection{\arabic{subsection}}  \renewcommand\thesubsubsection{\arabic{subsubsection}}  \titleformat{\section}[block]{\Large\scshape\centering}{\thesection}{1em}{}  \titleformat{\subsection}[block]{\large\scshape}{\thesection.\thesubsection}{1em}{}  \titleformat{\subsubsection}[block]{\large\scshape}{\thesection.\thesubsection.\thesubsubsection}{1em}{}   Thanks in advance!
