How to install ubuntu 13.04 on to a usb
How do I install Ubuntu to a USB key? (without using Startup Disk Creator)
Date and Time only partially visible in Big Sur Why can't I destroy or place blocks? Occasionally I see an old Meta post that has no status tag (like ), but from the answers it looks like the question is resolved.  Example:  should be  since the answers say HTTP compression actually is enabled.  Is it worth flagging these questions, or is that a waste of time? I keep hearing a lot about functors in C++. Can someone give me an overview as to what they are and in what cases they would be useful? This picture is a part of a table i am using, the terms subcases are vertically written but i cant center them vertically also in the next columns terms like A, B, etc are also not vertically centered. I made this table using tabulary package a. My code is  \begin{table}[H]  \centering  \caption{Saturation Table}  \label{tab:5}%  \begin{tabulary}{1\linewidth}{J J J J J J J J J J J J J}  \toprule  &amp; \textbf{Method} &amp; \multicolumn{1}{c}{\textbf{Parameters}} &amp; \textbf{Step 0} &amp; \textbf{Step 1} &amp; \textbf{Step 2} &amp; \textbf{Step 3} &amp; \textbf{Step 4} &amp; \textbf{Step 5} &amp; \textbf{Step 6} &amp; \textbf{Step 7} &amp; \textbf{Step 8} &amp; \textbf{Step 9} \\  \midrule  \multirow{4}[4]{*}{\begin{sideways}\textbf{Subcase A}\end{sideways}} &amp;  \multirow{2}[2]{*}{\textbf{A}} &amp; \textbf{No} &amp; 1 &amp; 2 &amp; 3 &amp; 4 &amp; 5 &amp; \textbf{6} &amp; &amp; &amp; &amp; \\[1mm]  &amp; &amp; \textbf{Maximum Saturation {(\%)}} &amp; 1 &amp; 2 &amp; 3 &amp; 4 &amp; 4 &amp; \textbf{5} &amp; &amp; &amp; &amp; \\  \cmidrule{2-13} &amp; \multirow{2}[2]{*}{\textbf{B}} &amp; \textbf{No} &amp; 1 &amp; 2 &amp; 3 &amp; 4 &amp; 5 &amp; 6 &amp; 7 &amp; \textbf{8} &amp; &amp; \\[1mm]  &amp; &amp; \textbf{Maximum Saturation {(\%)}} &amp; 6 &amp; 6 &amp; 7 &amp; 8 &amp; 9 &amp; 9 &amp; 19 &amp; \textbf{8} &amp; &amp; \\  \bottomrule  \end{tabulary}%  \end{table}% I am stuck in a question where energy conservation is failing and momentum conservation is correct. I think I might be doing something wrong, that's why I'm asking this question. The problem is as follows:     A bullet of mass $25\,g$ is fired horizontally into a ballistic pendulum of mass $5.0\,kg$ and gets embedded in it. If the centre of pendulum rises by a distance of $10\,cm$, find the speed of the bullet.   (H.C. Verma, Centre of Mass, Q47)     Let the mass of the bullet be $m=25\,g$. Let the mass of the pendulum be $M=5\,kg$. Let the peak height be $h=0.1\,m$. Let the initial and final velocities be $u$ and $v$ respectively.  Method 1: (Momentum Conservation)  $$mu=(M+m)v \implies v=\frac{mu}{M+m}\\ \text{Also, }\frac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2=(M+m)gh\\ \implies u^2=2\biggl(\frac{M+m}{m}\biggr)^2gh\\ \implies u=201\sqrt2 \text{ m/s}$$  Method 2: (Energy Conservation)  Since both the masses move together after the collision, and because the velocity at highest point is null, therefore: $$\frac{1}{2}mu^2=\frac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2=(M+m)gh\\ \implies u^2=2gh\biggl(\frac{M+m}{m}\biggr) \implies u=\sqrt{402}$$    To summarize myself, I am curious about the following: Why do the results differ? Shouldn't the energy be conserved as well as the momentum? Since it should be, then what is the flaw in my calculations? Infinity, is clearly not . But there is some dissent on whether or not zero is finite. I have seen authors use "finite" to indicate the value of $0$ is excluded as well as infinity.  Is there any rule about this? What happens to matter (e.g. bodily fluids) that are left on the holodeck? Modal vs Non-Modal vs Auxiliary modal vs Conjugated Verb Modal vs Non-Modal vs Auxiliary modal vs Conjugated Verb   How are these kinds of verb related to each other? Specially Non-Modals and Conjugated Verb. Is the "Auxiliary modal" just another name for "Auxiliary verb"? Can you reuse marinade used with raw chicken? In the sentence below, are the usages of apostrophes correct?     In research about parent stereotypes, the correlation between parents’ beliefs about their early elementary age children’s’ mathematics abilities and the children’s actual abilities increased as children aged. How to put legend below the chart? I have the following code that produces a line chart:  \begin{figure}[p]     \centering \begin{tikzpicture}     \begin{axis}[     use units,     cycle list name=exotic, %This defines the color. It produces nicer colors         width=15cm, height=8cm,     % size of the image         grid = major,         grid style={dashed, gray!30},         %xmode=log,log basis x=10,         %ymode=log,log basis y=10,         xmin=0,     % start the diagram at this x-coordinate         ymin=0,     % start the diagram at this y-coordinate         %/pgfplots/xtick={0,5,...,60}, % make steps of length 5         %extra x ticks={23},         %extra y ticks={0.507297},         axis background/.style={fill=white},         ylabel=Time,         xlabel=Number of Datapoints (n),         y unit=s,y unit prefix=m,         tick align=outside]        % import the correct data from a CSV file       \addplot table [col sep=comma,trim cells=true,y=Best Case (Ascending)] {datasets/time_mergesort.txt};           \addplot table [col sep=comma,trim cells=true,y=Average Case (Random)] {datasets/time_mergesort.txt};                     \addplot table [col sep=comma,trim cells=true,y=Worst Case (Descending)] {datasets/time_mergesort.txt};                      \legend{Ascending,Random,Descending}     \end{axis}  \end{tikzpicture}     \caption{Mergesort Run Time for Sorting Random Data}     \label{fig:merge_sort_from_csv} \end{figure}   And at the moment the legend appears on the chart on the upper right corner. I need to move that below the chart, or even to leave that on the chart but to move that on the upper left corner.   I have tried the solution mentioned at , but it did not work for me.  How can I move the axis in a different position? Integral of $\sin x \cos x$ using two methods differs by a constant? $$ \int \sin \theta\cos \theta~d \theta= \int \frac {1} 2  \sin 2\theta~ d \theta=-\frac {1} 4  \cos 2\theta$$ But, if I let  $$ u=\sin \theta , \text{ then }du=\cos \theta~d\theta $$ Then $$ \int \sin \theta\cos \theta~d \theta= \int u ~ du =\frac { u^2 } 2 =\frac {1} 2 \sin^2 \theta $$ Since $$ \sin^2 \theta =\frac {1} 2 - \frac {1} 2 \cos 2\theta$$ The above can be written as $$ \int \sin \theta\cos \theta~d \theta= \frac {1} 2 \sin^2 \theta =\frac {1} 2 \left( \frac {1} 2 - \frac {1} 2 \cos 2\theta \right)=\frac {1} 4-\frac {1} 4 \cos 2\theta   $$ Why are the two results differ by the constant $1/4$? Thank you. Clock displays incorrect time I've just installed 64-bit Ubuntu 11.04 and after I updated it, the clock stopped displaying the right time. It's now 8 hours behind my normal time. I've checked the Time and Date settings and the Location field is correct. What's even weirder is that the time displayed in Time and Date Settings adjusts itself after a few seconds and is correct. The time displayed in the task bar remains the same, however.  Any ideas? A relative managed to change her password, yet can not input the correct password.  She does not want to reset the phone to avoid loss of data (pictures, contacts, messages, etc.).  Will the phone eventually stop accepting logon attempts? What is the view on accounts shared by multiple users on Stack Overflow? It has been my understanding that accounts are suppose to be for a specific user. This user, , is a company: . No doubt, this account has provided some quality answers. However, if a specific user cannot be identified, I don't think that the rep gain, rewards, or badges should be given. This should somehow be tagged as a 'Corporate User'. The rep has no real value when you can't be somewhat sure that the same person is giving the answers all the time.  This is where I found an answer by Devart: , peddling a product.    Edit 2 Good points have been brought up and most I can agree with. But we are setting a precedent. Meta Fudgey brought up a good point about the account's ability to use mod tools responsibly and consistently. Maybe this feature is not available to an account that appears to be an umbrella account unless a single user is identified. I think it is important to consider this aspect.    Let me re-iterate: the user(s) has provided excellent content and I would want that to continue. However, there is more at stake here than meaningful content and helpful resources.      Edit The view on 'shared' accounts wasn't so bright a year ago. For most of us, we have information in our profiles that identifies us as individuals. No, I don't have absolute knowledge of the activities on this account and how many people might use it. Meh, for all we know it could be a knowledgeable programmer with some good PR sense. On the other hand, it could be a PR person with no programming knowledge getting the answers from an employee. Who knows... WinBUGS: Multiple definitions of a node So this question is about the BUGS modeling language. So you either know it or have no clue. I'm a newbie to this so it's been driving me mad. I want to define a simple two-state hidden Markov model (HMM) where the emission of each state follows a Normal distribution. I have an array data of Nxl dimension where each row is a subject and column is a continuous variable Time associated with the subject. So in WinBUGS, I would define the model as:   for(i in 1:N) { # for each subject     # Sample the initial observation     Time[i, 1] ~ dnorm(mu[State[1]], tau[State[1]])      for(j in 2:l[i]) { # for each observation         # Sample the observed variables         Time[i, j] ~ dnorm(mu[State[j]], tau[State[j]])         # Sample the hidden states         State[j] ~ dcat(P[State[j-1], ])     } }  # P is the transition matrix of the hidden Markov chain P[1, 1:2] ~ ddirch(Pinit) P[2, 1:2] ~ ddirch(Pinit)  # Set the initial states State[1] ~ dcat(Pinit)  # Sample the initial params mu[1] ~ dnorm(200, 1.0E-6) mu[2] ~ dnorm(400, 1.0E-6)  # The precision params tau[1] ~ dgamma(0.001, 0.001) tau[2] ~ dgamma(0.001, 0.001)   Initial values have also been provided via R2WinBUGS. The model is syntactically correct. But when I run, I got this error: "multiple definitions of node State[2]"  Can you please tell me why and how to solve this? I've searched around on the error but each has their own specific case and there's not a generic solution or explanation as to why this arises. What are the difference between the following sentence?    I ate apples. I have eaten apples.    When should we use simple past tense? When should we use perfect past tense? A twice differentiable function $f$ satisfies $f′′(x)+f(x)=−xg(x)f′(x)$, $\forall x\ge 0$. Consider $f\in C^2$ so that $$f''(x)+f(x)=-x\,g(x)f'(x), \ \forall x\ge0 $$ where $g(x)\ge 0$. Then ($\forall x\ge 0$)         (A) $f(x)^2+f'(x)^2$ is non-increasing,   (B) $f(x)^2&lt;3f(0)^2+(2f'(0))^2$,   (C) $|f(x)|\le\alpha$, where $\alpha$ is a fixed real constant.   (D) $\lim_{x\to\infty} f(x)\sin\left(\dfrac{1}{x}\right)$ exists.        Answer Given: (A),(B),(C),(D)  What I have tried : I differentiated option (A) and then with the help of the given equation in the question I was able to show that  it is less than zero . Hence I was able to infer that option (A) is correct .   Now coming to option (B).  I assumed the function in option (A) to be $h(x)$.   $$ h(x) = f(x)^2 + f'(x)^2 $$  Since $h'(x)&lt;0$ ,therefore $h(x)$ is a decreasing function   hence for all $x\ge 0$  $h(x)&lt; h(0)$  which implies $(f(x))^2 + (f'(x))^2&lt;(f(0))^2 + (f'(0))^2$  From the above expression we can get the second option .   Is my method correct ?. If not , please show the right method .  I am unable to get the the 3rd and 4th option . Is there any way to recover deleted files which may have since been overwritten? I deleted lots of files &amp; folders on my laptop and then I put a new files in the same folders. I need to recover the deleted files. I tried a lot of recovery software and I couldn't recover my old files.   I read that if you refill the folders with new files after deleting old ones then I can't recover them again. Is that true?   What should I do?
