Lost Ubuntu upon re-installing windows 7
WUBI installed Ubuntu not showing up at boot menu after Windows reinstallation
Display the original question beneath the answer edit form Often when I edit one of my answers, it's because I want to better address the original question. The only problem is that I can't see the original question while I'm editing my answer!  I'd love to see the original question text beneath the "answer edit" form. This way I could scroll down slightly to read it if I wanted to, or just ignore it if not.  Current workaround is to click the 'return to answer' link and hope that you remember to launch it in a new tab/window, then tab back and forth.    Imported from this uservoice item: How to implement Bitcount using only Bitwise operators? infinite monoid H that is not a free monoid and contains a free monoid as a submonoid Let $H= \langle h_1, \ldots , h_n \rangle$ ($n&gt;1$) be an infinite monoid that is not a free monoid. Does $H$ contain an isomorphic copy of a free monoid as a submonoid? EDIT. It is a natural question. The corresponding question for groups is the Burnside problem. What make is my BMX frame? I have a BMX forsale, but I would like to know what make the frame is so I can determine how much it is worth. Does anyone recognise this symbol on the frame?  Thanks for your help Jon euler's theorem of homogeneuos function suppose that $f$ is a mapping from $\mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R$.  a positively homogeneous of degree $n$ and suppose $f_1, f_2, .... f_N$ are continuous for $a \neq 0$. then   $$\sum_{i=1}^n a_if_i(a)= n*f(a)$$   now, they asked me to prove this. (Which is a total no no to me)  I write my proof as;  $f$ is a mapping from $\mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R$  A homogeneous function of degree $n$ if for all $a \in \mathbb R^n$ and all $L&gt;0$, $f(La)=L^n\,f(a)$. let $a \in \mathbb R^n$ and define function $g$ be a mapping from $[0,\infty) \to \mathbb R$. so I write $g(L) = f(La)-L^nf(a)$. then $L≥0$ let $L=0$ then, $g(L)=0$ and therefore $g'(x) =0$?  then i don't know what's goes next. can anyone help me about this? "I saw him crossing" vs. "I saw him cross" I saw him crossing the road.   I saw him cross the road.   Which one is correct and why? What files should i put in a logo pack to give to clients? Should I put small, medium and large version of my logo as well as the vector file. Why is there a peeking duck in my profile pic? Age and Graduate school I am 33. I live in the US. I am a neither a US citizen, nor a green card holder. I have worked in various jobs as a research assistant (physics, biology, economics) usually involving programming, mathematics or statistics.  As a newly minted undergraduate, I didn't really have much confidence in myself and I completely ruled out graduate school as pointless.  I didn't think of myself as smart enough.  I drifted into working in labs, because those are some of the easiest ones for which one can get a work permit in the US as a non-American.  Having worked in academia for a while now, I've had a chance to leap into various fields and help build solutions to complex problems.  I think I have literally gone as far as I can go researching in academia with no higher degree.  I work at one of the top universities in the world.  (If you looked at US News rankings or the Academic Ranking of World Universities, it's in the top 5.)  Lately, I've been thinking about applying for graduate school.  I do have a few papers in various fields.  I'm thinking of a PhD in either pure mathematics, applied mathematics, statistics or computer science.   I see two big minuses to applying to graduate school:   Most people applying are more than a decade younger than I am.  (Alas, more than a few gray hairs have made an appearance in recent years.) Perhaps my achievements would look good for someone younger, but partially my achievements are the result of a long career rather than any special brilliance. So, I wonder how my record will be perceived.  I did take GRE and I scored 800 quantitative, 800 verbal and a 5 on the essay.  (I would most likely have to do a GRE subject test depending on what field I ultimately decided.)   Please advise on how accomplished, but older candidates, are viewed in the graduate school application process. Difference between Can/Could: "Can (could) you sell your old computer to me?" What is difference between  Could you sell your old computer to me, seeing (that) you have no use for it. Can you sell your old computer to me, seeing (that) you have no use for it.  Can I use either one of them? Which one is grammatically correct or if both are, what is the difference in meaning? Why is 'ping' unable to resolve a name when 'nslookup' works fine? On my Windows XP workstation, I can find the machine I want to connect to in DNS with nslookup:  nslookup wolfman Server: dns.company.com Address: 192.168.1.38  Name: wolfman.company.com Address: 192.168.1.178   But, when I try to connect to that machine, I get an error telling me that the machine can't be found (i.e., can't be looked up in DNS):  C:\&gt; ping wolfman Ping request could not find host wolfman. Please check the name and try again.   I am able to connect if I use the IP address directly:  C:\&gt; ping 192.168.1.178  Pinging 192.168.1.178 with 32 bytes of data:  Reply from 192.168.1.178: bytes=32 time=41ms TTL=126 Reply from 192.168.1.178: bytes=32 time=41ms TTL=126 Reply from 192.168.1.178: bytes=32 time=44ms TTL=126 Reply from 192.168.1.178: bytes=32 time=38ms TTL=126   I could work around this by adding an entry to my hosts file, but I would rather find out why this is happening.  The problem is transient, most of the day I can connect to the machine just fine.  How is this possible?  ETA: I left this out for brevity, but it was asked for:  C:\&gt; ping wolfman.company.com Ping request could not find host wolfman.company.com. Please check the name and try again.   ETA: Other applications get the same results.  I only tried ping to simplify.  telnet can't connect, Cygwin apps print a "unknown host wolfman" message.  Update: Using wireshark, I found that my workstation is not attempting a DNS lookup.  It's just reporting the "could not find host" error message. How can I run Debian stable but install some packages from testing? Say you're running a server and you don't want to upgrade to Testing (Squeeze) from Stable (Lenny) to just install a required package or two.  What's the best way of installing only certain packages from Testing? How do I write a mathematical equation for ARIMA (2,1,0) x (0,2,2) period 12 I would appreciate if someone could help me write the mathematical equation for the seasonal ARIMA (2,1,0) x (0,2,2) period 12. I'm a little confused with how to go about this. I would prefer an equation involving $Y_t , e_t, θ$ and $Θ$. Gray cone obscuring/clipping the 3D Viewport When looking at my objects in 3d view I'm seeing a gray cone that seems to be hiding other objects.   Can anyone help me turn this off and explain what it is please.  Screenshots attached. How do you compute negative numbers to fractional powers? Ubuntu 11.10 is installed, and I have updated my system via Ubuntu Software Centre, and after the update 3 updates remain in the list. But I am unable to select them, the tickboxes cannot be checked and Ubuntu Software Centre gives no error when I try to check.  Also, below it says "There is no update to be installed" and even though there seems to be updates Install Updates button is unclickable.  What should I do in order to install these updates? In C#, what makes a field different from a property, and when should a field be used instead of a property? Should I use UUID as well as ID What is Ubuntu's status on the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities? Any questions relating to status updates, or asking if anything is going to be patched for these vulnerabilities should be closed as duplicates of this question.    are in the news right now and sound pretty severe. I don't see any security updates from Ubuntu that cover these vulnerabilities.  What is Ubuntu doing about these vulnerabilities, and what should Ubuntu users be doing?  These are CVE-2017-5753, CVE-2017-5715 and CVE-2017-5754. I have read the Rules of a competition. The text of the Rules include a sentence as follows:     As per stated in the Rules the entrants will be notified by May 30th 2010.   Does the sentence above mean that May 30th is included in the term of notification or not?
