Maximizing healing and damage for a Cleric
Cleric build to maximize melee damage and spell healing
Where should the period go when using parentheses? For example:     In sentence one, I use this example (which has a parenthesis at the end.)   Should the period be inside, or outside of the parentheses? What about if the entire sentence is a parenthetical (as below)?     (Where does the terminal punctuation go here?)   Is there a hard and fast rule? Puppet client not connection to master - SSL connect Error I installed the puppet master and agent on the same machine. When the client is started, I got the following error message.  puppet agent --server=agent.com --no-daemonize --debug    err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed.  This is often because the time is out of sync on the server or client What is going on with pgfpages and page labels? I’m using a feature of beamer that shows notes beside slides, but the page numbers that are coming out are crazy, making it impossible to extract specific slides into other documents with \includegraphics[page=n]{presentation.pdf}.  For example, in this MWE, there are two frames that are each 1 slide, and then one frame that is four slides. The PDF page labels that show up in Acrobat are, as indicated, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, and 7. It starts at page 2 instead of 1, and then there are four page 3s, but they don’t even all belong to the same frame!  \documentclass{beamer} \usepackage{pgfpages}  \setbeameroption{show notes on second screen=left} \setbeamertemplate{note page}{frame \insertframenumber \\ \insertnote} \def\pg#1{pgfpages says this is page #1 but it is really page \arabic{page}}  \begin{document}  \setcounter{page}{0}  \frame{hi \note{\pg{2}}}  \frame{there \note{\pg{3}}}  \frame{how \pause are \pause you \pause today \note&lt;1-3&gt;{\pg{3}} \note&lt;4&gt;{\pg{7}}}  \end{document}   Here’s what the output looks like:    I know that the manual says, “pgfpages will produce wrong page numbers in the .aux file” and gives a manual workaround. But the page counter still works, so shouldn’t there be some way to pass that through to the PDF? I’d like to fix this, but don’t know where to start. Specifically, when the manual says that “TeX instantiates the page numbers when writing an .aux file only when the physical page is shipped out,” what exactly is it talking about? Where is the source code for that? Let $G$ be a group and $H$ be a subgroup of $G$ of index $2$ .Then show that if $a,b\notin H$ then $ab\in H$. Let $G$ be  a group and $H$ be a subgroup of $G$ of index $2$ .Then show that if $a,b\notin H$ then $ab\in H$.   $a,b\notin H\implies aH,bH\neq H\implies $ $aH=bH$  since $H$ has only two distinct left cosets in $G$.  $\implies a^{-1}b\in H$  How to show that $ab\in H$ from here? $R$ is commutative, $I$,$J$ are ideals, $I+J=R$, then $IJ=I\cap J$ If $R$ is a commutative ring and $I$ and $J$ are ideals s.t. $I+J=R$ then show that $IJ=I\cap J$.  I've already shown that $IJ \subset I\cap J$, now I need to show the reverse inclusion.   I'm a bit lost, so far i'm just figuring out what pieces I have to work with.  Such as:  $\forall r\in R$ $\exists i\in I ,j\in J$ s.t. $i+j=r$  $\forall ij\in IJ$, $ij=i_1$ and $ij=j_1$ for some $i_1\in I$, $j_1\in J$.  Also, if I let $x\in I\cap J$, then $x=i_2=j_2=i+j$ for some $i_2\in I$, $j_2\in J$  Anyone, having problem getting to the conclusion here, thanks in advance I'm working on a fairly big document that has a lot of graphs of functions- so far it has around 200, by the end it will have around 1500. I use pgfplots for each graphic, and the functions are pretty basic: exponential, rational, polynomial, and trigonometric.  Once I am happy with each graph, I don't necessarily need to see it every time I compile, and would like to minimize compilation time for future drafts. Naturally, the document is already chopped up into chapter files, but each chapter contains around 100 figures.  Having studied the pgfplots documentation, I haven't found a draft mode, but I'm interested in knowing if one could be created.    I'm envisaging something similar to the draft mode of the graphicx package, in which graphics are not included, and blank boxes are put in their place.  Some things I've considered:   the  documentclass; but with about 1500 figures, wouldn't this mean over-modulization?  tikzexternalize, but this still requires an initial 'monster' compilation to get the images externalized before the draft option could be invoked   Here's a MWE to play with  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{pgfplots}  \begin{document}  \begin{tikzpicture}     \begin{axis}         \addplot {x^2};     \end{axis} \end{tikzpicture}  \end{document} Can you add a separate discussion site? Sometimes you just want to let out some steam, and troll about some technology or software. You are not looking for any answers, but for users with similar experiences and interesting stories. So why not create a separate discussion site (trolling.stackoverflow.com?), where you could ask questions like "why do you hate technology X" or "What are the stupidest bugs you encountered in X"? Prove that in a triangle $$r^2+r_1^2+r_2^2+r_3^2=16R^2-(a^2+b^2+c^2)$$ where the symbols have their usual meanings. I am looking for a smaller or elegant proof using trigonometry. A geometric proof would be super cool. I did prove it but it took me ages to do the calculation. Thanks. Is it a good practice to always scale/normalize data for machine learning? recovering deleted file held open by apache? Suppose an apache log file gets deleted but it's held open by apache; then this is what I am doing:  pid=$(lsof | grep text.txt | awk '/deleted/ {print $2}') fd=$(lsof | grep text.txt | awk '/deleted/ {print $4}' | grep -oE "[[:digit:]]{1,}")  cp /proc/$pid/fd/$fd directorytobecopied/testfile.txt   This is what I am doing to recover the file and put it back where it was. Is there any simpler way of doing this because above code doesn't look good. Furthermore how do I know from where the file was deleted(directorytobecopied) so that I don't have to manually ask somebody where the file was located originialy and put it back there. Passing parameters to a document I compile most of my documents via Makefiles which take care of the bibliography, indexes, etc. Often I'd like to compile different versions from the same TeX file changing only small things (e.g. a beamer presentation plus a version with the handout option).  Is there any standard mechanism for passing parameters to the TeX file so that I can just type make handout to get the handout version in the above example? Why is it true that $\mathrm{adj}(A)A = \det(A) \cdot I$? How get the :hover css style of an anchor with jQuery? How can i get the :hover in css stylesheet on the fly with jquery?  stupid example:   a.foo {     color: red;     font-size: 11px; }  a.foo:hover {     color: blue;     font-size: 12px;  }   how to retrieve that color and font-size before that mouse will go over the anchor? "This edit would have to be a suggested edit" / edit button grayed out A couple of times recently when I attempted to edit a post while reviewing it from the "First Posts" queue, I received the following message when I tried to submit the form:  This edit would have to be a suggested edit. (x)   This is a rather cryptic message, considering that edits made from a review are suggested edits, subject to the same peer review process. There was no indication of how the edit would have to be submitted differently, much less why. I searched both help and meta for more information about this message, but came up empty.  The first time it happened, after I cancelled out I saw that someone else had just edited the post, so I thought maybe that's why I couldn't submit an edit from the review (and wondered why, if that's the case, the error message didn't just say that instead of telling me something that doesn't make any sense - that the edit I'm trying to suggest can't be submitted because it would have to be a suggested edit). However, the second time I received this message (last night, for this question: ), there was no other edit. So, I clicked the No action needed button and tried to edit the post outside the review process, only to discover that the edit link was grayed out.   I see several explanations of possible causes for graying out the edit link here: . However, there was no tooltip when I hovered over the disabled link, and the edit queue was in the single digits.  A few minutes later, I noticed that the edit link was no longer grayed out, so I edited the post and my edit was accepted.   My best hypothesis based on my experience with the error so far and the explanations I've read here at meta is that someone submitted a suggested edit while I was reviewing the post, which (a) caused me to get the cryptic error message and (b) caused the edit link to be grayed out when I accessed the post the normal way. Then a few minutes later, the suggested edit was rejected, opening up the question for new edit suggestions.  Rather than speculating about it and trying to determine the answer scientifically, it would be helpful if someone could give me the answer (as Seinfeld fans might put it, "Why don't you just tell me why I can't edit the post?"). It would be even more helpful if the error message itself provided the explanation, or if the message were defined somewhere in the help pages. But, at the very least, hopefully there will soon be an answer on meta to enlighten people who scratch their chins over this in the future. :) XeLaTeX update [20201004] and item ball in Beamer Beamer item balls go missing while compiling in XeLateX since yesterday's TeXlive update, however, the same code works with pdfLaTeX. Any solution, please. Here is my MWE: \documentclass{beamer}  \setbeamertemplate{itemize item}[ball] \setbeamertemplate{enumerate item}[ball]  \begin{document}  \begin{frame} \frametitle{A tested title} text \begin{enumerate}     \item this is an item \end{enumerate} text3 \begin{itemize}     \item this is an item \end{itemize} \end{frame} \end{document} I'm facing this frustrating "feature" that I can't seem to remedy; when I duplicate an object (and now, even when I create two completely new objects), their transformations/scaling is synchronized. This is extremely annoying when trying to use any sort of transformation keyboard shortcut.  It should be noted by going to the properties menu (N) and manually setting the properties works just fine.  For instance, here is just the camera selected (trust me, I made sure):   And when I try to transform by clicking+dragging on the X axis OR by hitting G->X, this happens:   They are not grouped (verified by going to the Groups list up in the Scene panel) and they do not have parents (verified by going to Object->Relations).  I have tried the unlink command as well, to no avail.  I have seriously run out of options; what did I change to have my G->X shortcuts transform multiple objects? It seems completely at random, too; certain objects seemed to be "linked" to other random objects, and this "linking" is guaranteed when duplicating even when I do a non-linking duplicate (Shift+D).  What gives? What is the largest inductance value ever attained(in Henries)? Where can I find good literature for beginners? I am trying to find some database tutorials,books and similar, since I have started this course in college, and received some material, but it is really hard to manage through all the info on the net. I searched through the questions on the site but didn't find any. Thankfull for all your input. Do Dragonborn get tails/wings? $\infty = -1 $ paradox I puzzled two high school Pre-calc math teachers today with a little proof (maybe not) I found a couple years ago that infinity is equal to -1:   Let x equal the geometric series: $1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 \ldots$  $x = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 \ldots$ Multiply each side by 2:  $2x = 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 \ldots$ Again from the equation in step 1, move the $1$ term to the left hand of the equation:  $x - 1 = 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 \ldots$ So the following appears to be true:  $2x = x - 1 \implies x = -1$   This is obviously illogical. The teachers told me the problem has to do with adding the two infinite geometric series, but they weren't positive. I'm currently in Pre-calc, so I have extremely little knowledge on calculus, but a little help with this paradox would be appreciated.
