How to add Android Studio to the launcher?
What set of books makes a complete starter set for 4e? I've asked several questions about 4th Edition D&amp;D because I may be able to start a game. However, I'd need to purchase (some) materials. I am aware of the 4 book set (core) and the expected Essentials Red Box.  So now I need to know: presumably buying either the 4 book set or essentials will be enough to get my game on. Would there be something 'lacking' though? Would I be missing character types, for instance, as I've seen that the splatbook strategy is still in effect?  I'm an experienced player and GM and plenty creative, so many holes I'd be able to fill in myself. I just don't want to get sucked into too much financial impact. Shape gets distorted when adding stroke in Illustrator CS6 I very recently started learning how to use Adobe Illustrator (CS6), and just now I noticed something strange. When I add a 1pt stroke to my shape, it gets slightly distorted. This distortion does not disappear if I remove the stroke. (But only if I remove the stroke by setting its weight to 0. Using CTRL+Z does return the shape to its former state.)  After adding and removing the stroke a few times, the difference becomes quite noticable:   Am I doing something wrong? Is it a bug? I can't imagine this being the expected behaviour.  EDIT: I think I figured it out. Appearantly, turning 'Align to pixel grid' off doesn't affect previous shapes. If I turn it off and then recreate my shape from scratch, the problem is fixed.   However, I was wondering if their is a way to disable the effect for existing shapes. In other words, can I 'fix' the shapes I created while 'Align to pixel grid' was still on? Run a batch file in a completely hidden way I am on Ubuntu and I have forgotten the password for my Gnome Keyring (yes, stupid me, I know). Any way I can get it back? I have already looked at , but it says it's not possible if my home directory is encrypted and unfortunately my home directory is encrypted. Choosing between $z$-test and $t$-test Background: I'm giving a presentation to colleagues at work on hypothesis testing, and understand most of it fine but there's one aspect that I'm tying myself up in knots trying to understand as well as explain it to others.  This is what I think I know (please correct if wrong!)   Statistics that would be normal if variance was known, follow a $t$-distribution if the variance is unknown CLT (Central Limit Theorem): The sampling distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal for sufficiently large $n$ (could be $30$, could be up to $300$ for highly skewed distributions) The $t$-distribution can be considered Normal for degrees of freedom $&gt; 30$   You use the $z$-test if:   Population normal and variance known (for any sample size) Population normal, variance unknown and $n&gt;30$ (due to CLT) Population binomial, $np&gt;10$, $nq&gt;10$   You use the $t$-test if:   Population normal, variance unknown and $n&lt;30$ No knowledge about population or variance and $n&lt;30$, but sample data looks normal / passes tests etc so population can be assumed normal   So I'm left with:    For samples $&gt;30$ and $&lt;\approx 300$(?), no knowledge about population and variance known / unknown.   So my questions are:   At what sample size can you assume (where no knowledge about population distribution or variance) that the sampling distribution of the mean is normal (i.e. CLT has kicked in) when the sampling distribution looks non-normal? I know that some distributions need $n&gt;300$, but some resources seem to say use the $z$-test whenever $n&gt;30$... For the cases I'm unsure about, I presume I look at the data for normality. Now, if the sample data does looks normal do I use the $z$-test (since assume population normal, and since $n&gt;30$)? What about where the sample data for cases I'm uncertain about don't look normal? Are there any circumstances where you'd still use a $t$-test or $z$-test or do you always look to transform / use non-parametric tests? I know that, due to CLT, at some value of $n$ the sampling distribution of the mean will approximate to normal but the sample data won't tell me what that value of $n$ is; the sample data could be non-normal whilst the sample mean follows a normal / $t$.  Are there cases where you'd be transforming / using a non-parametric test when in fact the sampling distribution of the mean was normal / $t$ but you couldn't tell?

When are objects or something else said to be "first class" in a given programming language, and why? In what do they differ from languages where they are not?  EDIT. When one says "everything is an object" (like in Python), does he indeed mean that "everything is first-class"? How to make a curve path from scratch given a list of (x, y, z) points? What is the right way to apply an image texture over a glass or plastic material? I am trying to put a label over the transparent plastic bottle, but i was unable to do so, because when i build the bottle material(plastic) and mix it with the diffuse shader(using the label texture), the label gets faded. So the solution i found was to duplicate the bottle and scale a little bit and apply the label material on it. So it looks its the same material, but in reality its one material over the other. How can I make my plastic material be under my label material(image)? Here's how it looks:   Here's my material setting for the plastic bottle:   Thanks in advance. How to merge an unallocated partition with an extended partition? I wonder whether it is possible to draw the three following quadric surfaces (cone, hyperboloids)  x^2+y^2-z^2=0  x^2+y^2-z^2=1  x^2+y^2-z^2=-1  (and the axis)   using pgfplots 3d or TikZ as it is done in the following image Can XeLaTeX generate bold and italic font styles for typefaces that lack them? I use XeLaTeX in order to have easy access to fonts installed on my operating system, and Chinese in particular. Some of the Latin typefaces most pleasing to my eye do not have bold or italic font styles, and I wonder if XeLaTeX can remedy that.  I'm aware of the FakeBold and FakeSlant transformations within the fontspec package, but I'd be glad to know of a more attractive process, if there is one. (The specification, v2.1f, says, "Please don’t overuse these features; they are not a good alternative to having the real shapes.") My SoulSeek client Nicotine+ checks my open ports during initial configuration and promts that the one port number it needs is closed, cutting me off frmo about 50% of the users. Is there anyway I can open that particular port for the application to use?  RUnning ubuntu desktop 13.04.

How to prove that $\quad\displaystyle\frac{4^{n}}{\sqrt{4n}}&lt;\binom{2n}{n}&lt;\frac{4^{n}}{\sqrt{3n+1}}\quad$ for all $n$ &gt; 1 ?     Does anyone know any better elementary estimates?   Attempt.  We have $$\frac1{2^n}\binom{2n}{n}=\prod_{k=0}^{n-1}\frac{2n-k}{2(n-k)}=\prod_{k=0}^{n-1}\left(1+\frac{k}{2(n-k)}\right).$$ Then we have $$\left(1+\frac{k}{2(n-k)}\right)&gt;\sqrt{1+\frac{k}{n-k}}=\frac{\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n-k}}.$$ So maybe, for the lower bound, we have $$\frac{n^{\frac{n}{2}}}{\sqrt{n!}}=\prod_{k=0}^{n-1}\frac{\sqrt{n}}{\sqrt{n-k}}&gt;\frac{2^n}{\sqrt{4n}}.$$ By Stirling, $n!\approx \sqrt{2\pi n}\left(\frac{n}{e}\right)^n$, so the lhs becomes $$\frac{e^{\frac{n}{2}}}{(2\pi n)^{\frac14}},$$ but this isn't $&gt;\frac{2^n}{\sqrt{4n}}$. I want to prove that $\lim_{(x,y)\to (0,0)} \frac{\sin(x+y)}{x+y} = 1$  Is it sufficient to say that if $u = x+y$ then as $(x,y) \rightarrow (0,0)$ then $u \rightarrow 0$ and then evaluate $\lim_{u\to 0} \frac{\sin u}{u}$ which is 1 by L'Hôpital's rule?  I feel that this is somehow "cheating" and I would really like to prove it in a more rigorous way, i.e., by using an $\epsilon$ - $\delta$ argument.  I have tried for a long time to use the one variable version and prove that if $0 \lt \sqrt{x^2 + y^2} \lt \delta$ then somehow $0 \lt |x+y| \lt \delta$ and it would follow from the one variable case that $| \frac{\sin(x+y)}{x+y} - 1| \lt \epsilon$. However, because $|x+y| = 0$ when $y = -x$ I am not getting anywhere with this.  Any input on this would be helpful :) Penguin Brainteaser : 321-avoiding permutations There are $k$ penguins, $k\ge 3$. They are all different heights. How many ways are there to order the penguins in a line, left to right, so that we cannot find any three that are arranged tallest to shortest (in left to right order)? The penguin triples do not have have to be adjacent.  This problem is courtesy of someone I know only as "DaMancha."
