Can we use "not" after verbs?
What is the name for the grammatical device of putting "not" after a verb to negate it?
Problem with sudo apt get update: The repository cdrom... does not have a Release file Laravel loading error in Ubuntu 14.04 Ubuntu Server 18.04 LVM out of space with improper default partitioning I feel stupid asking, but I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere. I'm trying to follow  to edit my bash prompt, but there is no .bashrc in either my user directory (~/.bashrc), or in my home directory, or in the main file system directory.   There is no .bashrc in /etc/ (there is a bash.bashrc, however).   Do I create a .bashrc file in my user or home directory? Is there a better, more recent set of instructions for modifying the bash prompt? Apologies in advance for the long question.  My understanding is that in GR, massive observers move along timelike curves $x^\mu(\lambda)$, and if an observer moves from point $x^\mu(\lambda_a)$ to $x^\mu(\lambda_b)$, then his clock will measure that an amount of time $t_{ba}$ given by the curve's arc length; $$   t_{ba} = \int_{\lambda_a}^{\lambda_b}d\lambda \sqrt{-g_{\mu\nu}(x(\lambda))\dot x^\mu(\lambda)\dot x^\nu(\lambda)} $$ will have elapsed where $g_{\mu\nu}$ is a metric on spacetime with signature $(-,+,+,+)$.    Why is this so?     Here is how I would attempt to justify this fact in special relativity with $g_{\mu\nu} = \eta_{\mu\nu}$.  Consider an inertial observer $O$ in $\mathbb R^{3,1}$, and suppose that this observer sees a clock, which I'll call observer $O'$ moving around on a curve $x^\mu(\lambda)$.  If $O'$ were also an inertial observer, then given any event with coordinates $x^\mu$ as measured by $O$, observer $O'$ would measure the coordinates of the event to be $x'^\mu = \Lambda^\mu_{\phantom\mu\nu} x^\nu + x_0^\mu$ for some Lorentz transformation $\Lambda$.  If $O'$ is not inertial, then this is no longer true, and there is some more complicated family of transformations, say $T_\lambda$ between events as seen by both observers.  I would argue, however, that if we were to partition the interval $[\lambda_a, \lambda_b]$ into a large number $N$ of intervals $I_1=[\lambda_a, \lambda_i], \dots, I_N=[\lambda_{N-1}, \lambda_b]$ with $\lambda_n = \lambda_a+n\epsilon_N$ and $\epsilon_N=(\lambda_b-\lambda_a)/N$, then on each interval $I_n$, $O'$ is approximately an inertial observer in the sense that $$   T_{\lambda_n} = P_n + \mathcal O(\epsilon_N), \qquad (\star) $$ for some Poincare transformation $P_n$.  Then we would note that since $O'$ is stationary in his own reference frame, he measures his worldline to have the property $\dot x'^\mu(\lambda) = (\dot t(\lambda), \mathbf 0)$ so that $$   I_{ba}=\int_{\lambda_a}^{\lambda_b}d\lambda \,\sqrt{-\eta_{\mu\nu}\dot x'^\mu\dot x'^\mu} = \int_{\lambda_a}^{\lambda_b} d\lambda \, \sqrt{\dot t^2} = t(\lambda_b) - t(\lambda_a) = t_{ba} $$ On the other hand the integral on the left can be written as a Riemann sum using the partition above, and we can invoke ($\star$) above to get \begin{align}   I_{ba}  &amp;= \lim_{N\to\infty}\left[\sum_{n=1}^N \epsilon_N\sqrt{-\eta_{\mu\nu}\dot x'^\mu(\lambda_n)\dot x'^\nu(\lambda_n)}\right] \notag\\ &amp;= \lim_{N\to\infty}\left[\sum_{n=1}^N \epsilon_N\sqrt{-\eta_{\mu\nu}\dot x^\mu(\lambda_n)\dot x^\nu(\lambda_n)} + \mathcal{O}(\epsilon_N^2)\right] \notag\\ &amp;= \int_{\lambda_a}^{\lambda_b}d\lambda \,\sqrt{-\eta_{\mu\nu}\dot x^\mu\dot x^\mu} \end{align} Combining these two computations gives the desired result.  How do others feel about this argument?  I'm not completely comfortable with it because of the assumption $(\star)$ I made on $T_\lambda$.  I imagine that in GR a similar argument could be made by invoking local flatness of the metric.

Of course, there is an object which seems similar to a field with one element: the zero ring, $\mathbf{Z}_1$, defined as having one element, $0$, obeying the equations $$0 + 0 = 0 - 0 = 0 \cdot 0 = 1 = 0.$$ The zero ring seems to behave like a field in every respect, except for the fact that it fails to satisfy $0 \ne 1$. (But the importance of the axiom $0 \ne 1$ isn't clear to me.) However, in any case, there seems to be consensus that the zero ring is not the field with one element. People say that the zero ring &quot;does not behave like a finite field&quot; () or that it &quot;does not have the features that mathematicians need&quot; (). I'm not familiar enough with algebraic geometry to understand the properties that $\mathbf{F}_1$ is expected to have. Is there an elementary, undergraduate-level explanation of  why it seems like a field with one element &quot;ought to exist&quot; in the first place, what properties we expect it to have and why, and how the zero ring fails to satisfy these properties?  Or do I need to study algebraic geometry if I want to have an understanding of any of this? (A side question: do we have a good answer to the question of whether the single element of $\mathbf{F}_1$ ought to be $0$, $1$, both, or neither?) Is it possible in Ruby to get a reference to methods of an object ( I would like to know if this can be done without procs/lambdas ) , for example , consider the following code :   class X   def initialize     @map = {}     setup_map   end    private   def setup_map     # @map["a"] = get reference to a method     # @map["b"] = get reference to b method     # @map["c"] = get referebce to c method   end    public   def call(a)     @map["a"](a) if a > 10     @map["b"](a) if a > 20     @map["c"](a) if a > 30   end    def a(arg)      puts "a was called with #{arg}"   end    def b(arg)      puts "b was called with #{arg}"   end    def c(arg)     puts "c was called with #{arg}"   end end   Is it possible to do such thing ? I would like to avoid procs/lambdas because I want to be able to change the behaviour of A,B,C by subclassing . Catching exceptions from a constructor's initializer list Which command / configuration file controls the open file limits on OS X?  Is there a different command for OS X 10.5 / 10.6 / 10.7?  The options I explore below are ulimit, sysctl, and launchctl  "Too many open files" is apparently a common error on Leopard, perhaps other versions of OS X:        There are many (related?) ways to view the open file limits:  $ ulimit -a core file size          (blocks, -c) 0 data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited file size               (blocks, -f) unlimited max locked memory       (kbytes, -l) unlimited max memory size         (kbytes, -m) unlimited open files                      (-n) 2048 pipe size            (512 bytes, -p) 1 stack size              (kbytes, -s) 8192 cpu time               (seconds, -t) unlimited max user processes              (-u) 512 virtual memory          (kbytes, -v) unlimited   $ launchctl limit cpu         unlimited      unlimited       filesize    unlimited      unlimited       data        unlimited      unlimited       stack       8388608        67104768        core        0              unlimited       rss         unlimited      unlimited       memlock     unlimited      unlimited       maxproc     1024           2048            maxfiles    2048           4096         $ sysctl -a | grep files kern.maxfiles = 32768 kern.maxfilesperproc = 16384 kern.maxfiles: 32768 kern.maxfilesperproc: 16384 kern.num_files: 2049   It has been claimed in some of the above posts that these can be modified with the following commands:  sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 16384 32768 sudo ulimit -n 32768 sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfilesperproc=16384 sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfiles=32768   However, out of the above commands, only the sysctl commands have any apparently effect (i.e. ulimit -n and launchctl limit show no change after the above commands have been entered, while sysctl -a does show the requested changes).  The corresponding locations to change these parameters for the OS are:  /etc/sysctl.conf /etc/launchd.conf   I also discovered one  which reads that ulimit only controls the current shell.

We are sponsoring a family to visit us in UK as friends from Madagascar for two weeks. They have a 6 year old and a 16 month old.   Do the kids need their own visas, and are they the standard visitor visa or a special child visa?   Also, when I try and apply on the website I can only apply for one person so how do I apply for all the individuals in the family?
