What is the scope of variables in JavaScript? What is the scope of variables in javascript? Do they have the same scope inside as opposed to outside a function? Or does it even matter? Also, where are the variables stored if they are defined globally? Is there a W3C valid way to disable autocomplete in a HTML form? When using the xhtml1-transitional.dtd doctype, collecting a credit card number with the following HTML  &lt;input type="text" id="cardNumber" name="cardNumber" autocomplete='off'/&gt;   will flag a warning on the W3C validator:     there is no attribute "autocomplete".   Is there a W3C / standards way to disable browser auto-complete on sensitive fields in a form? Derivative of an even function is odd and vice versa I am using gedit text editor with embedded terminal in ubuntu 12.04. I'm trying to search for some text using grep. I want to search for this line of code   'type' =&gt; 'select'   I tried:  grep -r '\'type\' =&gt; \'select\''  But grep didn't return any results.  So can someone kindly tell me how to search for the code above? Is there a public API for Stack Overflow? rtl8723ae unstable on Ubuntu 14.04 I have searched through the internet and in AskUbuntu, but I could not find a working solution for my little problem.  The RTL8723ae WLAN is behaving strangely on Ubuntu 14.04 and drops the WLAN connection constantly. I am using the notebook MSI GE40 and have already seen on the web that there are other people having the same problem but there was no permanent solution. The problem did not exists on the original Windows 8 on the device and the router is a TP-Link, which I can control (channel change and so on, I use WPA2-PSK WLAN security). When does a Möbius transformation map $\Im(z)>0$ to itself? Show Möbius transformation which maps $\Im(z)&gt;0$ to itself iff  $$ f(z)= \frac{az+b}{cz+d}\,,\,\,ad-bc&gt;0$$ and $a,b,c,d$ are real. When I take the pth root, the bottom of the p comes very close to the \sqrt symbol.  In the New Century Schoolbook font (which I am using), the p actually intersects the \sqrt symbol, which looks even more terrible.  Is there a clean way to fix this?  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{fouriernc} % use the New Century Schoolbook font \begin{document} When I write $a^{(1/p)}$ as $\sqrt[p]{a}$, the bottom of the $p$ touches the top of the root symbol, which looks ugly. Even when the root symbol is larger, such as with $\sqrt[p]{\frac{1}{n}}$, it still looks bad (since the tail of the p almost hits that line). \end{document} Can I use the valid Schengen visa in old passport? What fallacy dismisses problems by presenting "bigger" problems? Wasn't really sure how to phrase this, but I'm thinking of an instance in which someone diminishes a problem by presenting one of larger scope - as a rather shoddy example, "x political problem in America doesn't matter because half the world's population is starving."  I honestly have no idea if this is considered fallacious or not, but for some odd reason I can't shake the feeling that someone has described it to me as a fallacy before. Am I crazy or is there something to this (or something similar)? Random quadratic equation I would like to produce quadratic equation with integer coefficients.  Here's my code using pgfmath.  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{tikz} \pgfmathsetseed{\pdfuniformdeviate 10000000}  \begin{document} $\pgfmathdeclarerandomlist{signe}{{+}{-}}% \pgfmathrandomitem{\s}{signe}% \pgfmathparse{random(2)}% \pgfmathparse{ifthenelse(\pgfmathresult==1,"-"," ")}\pgfmathresult \pgfmathrandominteger{\a}{1}{6} \pgfmathparse{ifthenelse(\a==1," x^{2} ","\a x^{2}")}\pgfmathresult % coeff a \pgfmathdeclarerandomlist{lincoeff}{{}{2}{3}{4}{5}{6}} \pgfmathrandomitem{\b}{lincoeff}% \pgfmathrandomitem{\s'}{signe}% \pgfmathsetmacro{\e}{random(0,6)} \pgfmathparse{ifthenelse(\e==0," ", " \s' \b x ")}\pgfmathresult % coeff b \pgfmathrandominteger{\c}{0}{6} \pgfmathrandomitem{\s''}{signe}% \pgfmathparse{ifthenelse(\c==0,"","\s'' \c")}\pgfmathresult % coeff c =0$ \end{document}   It works but it seems to be not a good way, I had some pain with the x-coeficient and my solution looks complicated. I tried to use an ifthenelse inside an other ifthenelse but without success. Is there a better way ? I need to end my visa waiver period when leaving States to Canada so that I don't exceed the period of 90 days. But form I-94 is no longer a physical card, it's only online.  How do I know or ensure that it will be terminated and will not continue counting the days once I leave to Canada? I am sure this question has been asked in some capacity on this site. I am a first year graduate student. I was contracted for a summer program that would have looked very good on my CV about 6 weeks ago.   However, due to the spread of COVID-19 the program was cancelled. Is there any way I can express this on my CV (possibly have an asterisk next to this activity)? If not, how should I explain the situation when applying for positions next year (because, now it is unlikely I will have anything noteworthy to put on my CV for this summer).  Thank you systemd-resolve high cpu usage after update to 17.04 Intuituive reason why Fermats last theorem holds I am unsure of whether it is normal, but to me, intuitively Fermats last theorem should not hold.  If anyone intuitively believed it to be correct, why?     Can someone explain so I understand somewhat why FLT holds without reading a massive and complex proof? How does the speed of electrons change around a circuit? I have been thinking about ways of teaching electronics and I'm wondering if the following is true...  For starters, when we talk about voltage as energy per unit charge, is this energy manifest simply as the kinetic energy of the electron?  So, all other things being equal, will the electrons coming out of a 4 volt battery will have twice the velocity of electrons coming out of a 1 volt battery because of ${1 \over 2}mv^2$?  This would seem to imply that the voltage drop across different parts of the circuit is essentially a comparison of the electron speeds at those points.  Furthermore doesn't this imply that the electrons are nearly halted by the time they reach the positive terminal of the battery? This makes intuitive sense to me, it seems pedagogically sound, and it provides an explanation for how electrons "know" to give up their energy across the circuit -- electrostatic repulsion communicates later resistances to earlier parts of the circuit.  How much of the above is correct? The one things that makes me suspicious is that, in this picture, electron density at the positive terminal of the battery is very high, and repulsive forces would prohibit this. On the other hand, if the Joules per Coulomb are not coming from kinetic energy, then what? The field? But wouldn't that just dissipate as light?  Something is wrong but I don't know what. Are there any simple rules for choosing the definite vs. indefinite (vs. none) article? Batch update/delete EF5 Intuitive idea of the Lipschitz function I'm trying to understand intuitively the notion of Lipschitz function.   I can't understand why bounded function doesn't imply Lipschitz function.   I need a counterexample or an intuitive idea to clarify my notion of Lipschitz function.  I need help  Thanks a lot With regards to  post about  and the part about retaining reputation earned from deleted posts that have a score of 3 or better and were visible on the site for 60 days, does this also apply to self-deleted posts and will it continue to do so? I culled a few of my own answers over the weekend that were less than stellar, and my reputation dropped 1.8k, but the rep is back today after the changes were announced. I thought it would be useful to clarify that this also applies to self-deleted stuff.
