An increasing number of funding organizations require publications on the research that they fund to be open access, i.e. available to the public without having to subscribe to a journal or pay a fee. Does anybody know where I can find a list of journals/publishers that do not allow material that they publish to be published this way? I've read that it is possible to add a method to an existing object (i.e., not in the class definition) in Python.   I understand that it's not always good to do so. But how might one do this? I would like to find a way to construct uncountably many non-isomorphic linear (total) orderings of natural numbers (as stated in the title).  I've already constructed two non-isomorphic total orderings. They are $$ 1 &lt; 2 &lt; 3 &lt;\ldots\\ 1 &gt; 2 &gt; 3 &gt;\ldots $$ where "$&lt;$" and "$&gt;$" are  strict total ordering relations.  Thanks in advance for your help. "This is a favorite question" tooltip when not favorite When viewing a question, when I hover over the star icon (under the voting module) the tooltip says I've made it a favorite when I haven't yet. Is there an elegant way to have performant, natural sorting in a MySQL database?  For example if I have this data set:   Final Fantasy Final Fantasy 4 Final Fantasy 10 Final Fantasy 12 Final Fantasy 12: Chains of Promathia Final Fantasy Adventure Final Fantasy Origins Final Fantasy Tactics   Any other elegant solution than to split up the games' names into their components    Title: "Final Fantasy" Number: "12" Subtitle: "Chains of Promathia"   to make sure that they come out in the right order? (10 after 4, not before 2).  Doing so is a pain in the a** because every now and then there's another game that breaks that mechanism of parsing the game title (e.g. "Warhammer 40,000", "James Bond 007") REST Service API executor.executeAsync Call Ends in Failure Function in Sharepoint Hosted App Any Answers Will Help me to Forward and Gain Knowledge in SharePoint Development  While i am Trying to get the list Items Using Rest API Calls in SharePoint Hosted App Using Below Function  function loadingSamples()  {     var JobListName = "RRR Jobs #";     var executor;     // Initialize the RequestExecutor with the app web URL.     executor = new SP.RequestExecutor("/");      //Fetching the choice values from the Job Status Field, to show in the Dropdown field     executor.executeAsync     ({         url: "/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('" + encodeURIComponent(JobListName) + "')/fields/getbytitle('Job Status')?$select=Choices",         method: "GET",         headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" },         success: successHandlerStatus,         error: errorHandler     }); } function successHandlerStatus(data)  {     alert("sucesss") }  function errorHandler(data, errorCode, errorMessage)  {     alert("errorMessage") }   It's always going to error function named errorHandler With  Error Code as -1002 and Error Message as Bad Request and Inside Data -> Body , the Error message is  {     "error":{            "code":"-1,Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.InvalidClientQueryException",         "message":{             "lang":"en-US",             "value":"The expression \"web/lists/getbytitle('DWR Jobs \" is not valid."         }     } }   Note :    This is working code in Sharepoint Hosted App that previously hosted in another Windows server. Now i hosted this App in New windows server,it's successfully hosted but it gives above mentioned Error in Rest Service Call. Is there a Windows standard way to do things such as "start fan", "decrease speed" or the like, from C/C++?  I have a suspicion it might be ACPI, but I am a frail mortal and cannot read that kind of documentation.  Edit: e.g. Windows 7 lets you select in your power plan options such as "passive cooling" (only when things get hot?) vs. "active cooling" (keep the CPU proactively cool?). It seems the OS does have a way to control the fan generically. Can I install Windows OS (Windows 7) on a removable USB hard drive? I wanted to take a sneak peek at Windows 7 so I thought of installing it. I have Windows Vista on my laptop which came pre-installed with it. I didn't want to mess with it.  So I created a partition (20 GB) in my USB external hard disk and tried to install Windows 7 on that partition. But when I booted from a Windows 7 DVD and selected the target partition on USB hard disk, it said it cannot be installed.  Is there any way to install Windows on an external USB hard disk? I've read a lot of conflicting advice on whether it's advisable to store eggs in the refrigerator. The case against seems twofold: (1) that eggshells are porous, and eggs can take on unwelcome flavours, or even spoil faster in the fridge, and (2) that cooking with cold eggs can be problematic. But lots of people refrigerate eggs through perceived necessity.  Do eggs last longer in the fridge, and is the shelf life gain worth it? Or should I just stick them in the cupboard? I have been following  tutorial until I started adding nodes. The problem is that he has completely different nodes than I have. Even nodes that are created at start are different (I have Material and Output and he has Render Layers and Composite). Have I missed something or should I use different nodes than he? Question: If $G$ is a finite group such that the product of its elements (each chosen only once) is always $1$, independent of the ordering in the product, what can we say about $G$?  I was trying to conclude that $G$ must be abelian (I am not sure about this). I proceed as follows: if $|G|\leq 4$, then obviously, $G$ is abelian. Suppose $|G|&gt;4$. Then consider products of all elements in the order $a^{-1}b^{-1}ab cc^{-1}dd^{-1}....$. This, being identity, implies that $a^{-1}b^{-1}ab=1$, i.e. $G$ is abelian.  BUT, the problem is in $a^{-1}b^{-1}ab$, the elements $a$ and $a^{-1}$ should be distinct, and similarly for $b$. Otherwise, the product $a^{-1}b^{-1}ab cc^{-1}dd^{-1}....$ is not in the prescribed form as in question.  Also, note that the cyclic group of order $4$ doesn't satisfy that $abcd=1$ where $\{a,b,c,d\}\cong \mathbb{Z}_4$. In Oracle, I can re-create a view with a single statement, as shown here:  CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW MY_VIEW AS SELECT SOME_FIELD FROM SOME_TABLE WHERE SOME_CONDITIONS   As the syntax implies, this will drop the old view and re-create it with whatever definition I've given.  Is there an equivalent in MSSQL (SQL Server 2005 or later) that will do the same thing? Why did Palpatine wait so long before giving Order 66? I know in TNG that all computer interfaces are now touch-screen, and that got me thinking: when was the first reference to touch-screen computer interfaces in Sci-Fi made? What is the reasoning that leads one to postulate this second form for the relativistic particle action? The action for the free relativistic particle with worldline $\gamma : I\subset \mathbb{R}\to M$ is  $$S[\gamma]=-m\int d\lambda\sqrt{-\dot{\gamma}^a(\lambda)\dot{\gamma}_a(\lambda)}\tag{1} $$  Now, one may postulate a second action  $$S'[\gamma,\eta]=\frac{1}{2}\int d\lambda \bigg(\eta(\lambda)^{-1}\dot{\gamma}^a(\lambda)\dot{\gamma}_a(\lambda)-\eta(\lambda)m^2\bigg).\tag{2}$$  These are classically equivalent actions.  My question is: usually what we have is (1) and we have a problem both with the square root and with the massless limit. Given this, how could we think about postulating (2)? In other words, how can we reach (2)?  Usually some people answer this by saying: "it doesn't matter, actions are postulated, you postulate it, compute the equations, prove it works and its over".  Now I beg to differ. I want to know how could someone reason exactly in order to know what to postulate.   I am perfectly comfortable with computing the equations of motion. I want to know is how given (1) we would have the idea to postulate (2).  Is it some special case of some general procedure that deals with constraints? How can something happen when time does not exist? I saw  hosted by Stephen Hawkins.  And if I didn't get it wrong, it says that there was no time before the big bang, time was created there.  So how can anything happen when there is no time (eg: the creation of time and the universe)? Is this what he calls a 'singularity'? Which I could think like this: when there is no time nothing can happen, except during this singularity.  Of course I don't know of a law that says 'when there is no time nothing can happen..', I just came up with it, as something intuitive. How to change all the keys of a hash by a new set of given keys tables with lots of columns I have a table that lists various attributes of an individuals personal development plan; objective, time to complete objective, comments etc. The table is editable so the user can directly add comments without having to go to an intermediate form. The problem is that the client wants to add more columns and this is messing up the visual display.   The alternatives I have are:   allowing columns to expand out on click keeping essential attributes in table, rest in 'advanced edit option form' or somesuch I don't know - have you any ideas?   One more thing to add: I think the addition of extra columns is based on user feedback ...  edit: here is what I have gone for Is Using Digital Signatures to prove identity a zero knowledge proof? Suppose Alice publishes a book with a public key in it, and later wants to prove that she wrote the book. She could sign challenge messages with her private key, and others could verify those signed messages. Alice is proving she knows a private key without revealing anything about it.  Is this an example of an interactive zero knowledge proof?   Or does this example somehow not apply to zero knowledge proofs? Does "Delete Local Content" retain save files? If you remove a single player game installation with the Delete Local Content option from the Steam Libary, in general will save files be deleted or retained?
