Ubuntu 14.04 LTS fails to start with a kernel panic
Do rogues get sneak attack damage added to attacks made outside their turn? PHB says 'once per turn,' so, it would seem that a Rogue with Sentinel, for example, could "consistently" deal Sneak attack twice per round (whether the enemy triggers an OA or the melee weapon attack provided by the Feat).  So, can rogues deal sneak attack damage with any weapon attack outside their turn? (obv. one that meets the standard requirements--finesse, adv or adj ally) In Java, arrays don't override toString(), so if you try to print one directly, you get the className + '@' + the hex of the  of the array, as defined by Object.toString():  int[] intArray = new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; System.out.println(intArray);     // prints something like '[I@3343c8b3'   But usually, we'd actually want something more like [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. What's the simplest way of doing that? Here are some example inputs and outputs:  // Array of primitives: int[] intArray = new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; //output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]  // Array of object references: String[] strArray = new String[] {"John", "Mary", "Bob"}; //output: [John, Mary, Bob] In Java, why do people prepend fields with `this`? When referencing class variables, why do people prepend it with this? I'm not talking about the case when this is used to disambiguate from method parameters, but rather when it seems unnecessary.  Example:  public class Person {             private String name;      public String toString() {         return this.name;     } }   In toString, why not just reference name as name?  return name;   What does this.name buy?   a stackoverflow question whose code has this pre-pending.

Fig. 1. CMOS NAND scheme.  I took some measurements of volteges U(output) vs. U(input). Using two independent voltage sources (constant high level Udd and Uin varying in 0-to-Udd range), I considered three different connection possibilities so to investigate all four input configurations. Those were:  a)  Input terminal A connected to Udd, input terminal B connected to Uin.  b)  Input terminal A connected to Uin, input terminal B connected to Udd.  c)  Both input terminals connected to Uin.  I've obtained following characteristics:    Fig. 2. CMOS NAND voltage characteristics with different connection methods.  As long as a difference between case c) and other cases I could have expected, I was surprised to see a) and b) differ as well. Could someone please explain to me why would changing voltages connection between A and B significantly changes threshold voltage of the gate? Is it a widely observed effect or have I just picked a defective NAND? Partitioning with varying partition size What is the sweet spot for experience gain? Is it more effective to fight the highest level enemies I can find, or am I penalized for being out of my depth? Are certain areas of the game better/best for experience gain/leveling? Are bosses better than areas with infinite minions? Would I get exp faster in a higher-level co-op game?

List has no rows for assignment to SObject Are recommendation questions an acceptable kind of list-type question or should they be closed? Recommendations are a recurring topic on multiple Stack Exchange (SE) sites. Some sites allow recommendations (ex: ), some do not (ex: ). There are many reasons for that and I can still remember animated discussions on this subject on the Gaming meta. Then there is that existential problem with Sci-Fi SE, &quot;What problems does answering a question on this site solve?&quot;  The only common problem I can think of is What to read/watch next?, which obviously led to a big number of recommendation questions, later slightly disguised as list question. And the main trouble with these questions isn't objectivity at all, some of them aren't even subjective. It's the fact that they don't have an answer - they are open ended. -  Those questions are monstrously popular because:  There's an actual problem to be solved,  or  This problem is quite common.  In view of the  blog post, a recommendation question fails the &quot;real questions have answers, not items or ideas or opinions.&quot; criteria. But it's still a &quot;practical, answerable questions based on actual problems that you face. &quot; and it requires expertise to answer. The problem is that there are multiple acceptable answers, and the asker is not the best person to evaluate the best answer because he doesn't know which one is the best compared to the others, and he cannot test it in short term. Even the need to accept an answer is questionable. So, is a recommendation question an acceptable kind of list-type question or should it be closed just like any other list-type questions? I am notified about old comments instead of new ones I have three notifications pending but when I open the tab they were a month ago. When I refresh the page I see the correct three notifications. Pictures:  Here you see notifications from March but it is April:    Here I refreshed the page and recognized that there are indeed three unread notifications.    This behavior occurred already three times before, always with the spinlock question as first comment. Today I finally realized that there were indeed notifications pending.  Is this a bug to report?

Now with Windows 10 x64 installed, Task Manager constantly shows unusual CPU usage by "System" and "System interrupts". To solve this, I already tried the following, without success:   Disabling and uninstalling all non-essential drivers. Installing newer drivers than the ones that were automagically installed (if available). Disabling/enabling fast boot option. Disabling all of the non-essential services. Sysprep. Resetting BIOS to defaults and various combinations of settings. Flashing BIOS to the latest available version. Clean install from the same media that I use for other PCs. Installing all of the updates offered in Windows Update to this day. Windows Performance Recorder / Analyzer.   I'm not very familiar with Windows Performance Analyzer, so I'm hoping someone here can point me in the right direction - what exactly should I look for, to figure out which device/driver is the culprit. Or, if there's any other approach to figuring out this problem?  For the brave souls, here's my  and a screenshot of the problem: Nearby objects won't move independently? I created a thick glass bottle and duplicated the interior faces to make a new object to create the liquid inside.   I went in the edit mode, selected the faces I wanted to copy and duplicated them with ShiftD. Then I pressed P to  separate the duplicated faces.   Now I try to make a duplicate of that liquid to make it flow out of the bottle, and I simply need the duplicate of one face of it. So I go to edit mode and do as I did to make the liquid from the bottle faces... but as soon as I'm back to the object mode and I want to move the duplicated faces, every thing moves with it...   I played around and tried things, and while doing so I realized that if I dupe the liquid object in object mode using ShiftD and press 0 to place it where the original is, they move together if I duplicate it and place it somewhere else so that they are separated.   Also if I pick one of the two separated objects and make it intersect with the other one, release my left mouse button to place it there, and then try to move it again, they both move together, but not at the same speed.  I really don't understand what is going on and I'm sure it's really badly explained, so what I'll do is make a screen capture of my Outliner and record the behavior of the objects and upload those to help you understand.

What is the best format to capture addresses for a universal user-base? What is the best and most usable format to capture address information from a universal user base? I was thinking to have the system detect the country by IP address and have that selected by default, and then state/province droplist would be populated accordingly. But the issue is some countries have states and provinces and some do not. Some have postal codes and some do not. Is there a universal standard to capture complete address info to ensure efficiency for most users?  FYI: I did research on here and while there are some questions that are close, none are about this exact same question (unless I missed something) How to check if an object is nullable? How do I check if a given object is nullable in other words how to implement the following method... bool IsNullableValueType(object o) {     ... }  I am looking for nullable value types. I didn't have reference types in mind. //Note: This is just a sample. The code has been simplified  //to fit in a post.  public class BoolContainer {     bool? myBool = true; }  var bc = new BoolContainer();  const BindingFlags bindingFlags = BindingFlags.Public                         | BindingFlags.NonPublic                         | BindingFlags.Instance                         ;   object obj; object o = (object)bc;  foreach (var fieldInfo in o.GetType().GetFields(bindingFlags)) {     obj = (object)fieldInfo.GetValue(o); }  obj now refers to an object of type bool (System.Boolean) with value equal to true. What I really wanted was an object of type Nullable&lt;bool&gt; So now as a work around I decided to check if o is nullable and create a nullable wrapper around obj.
