How to run a command that requires sudo at login
How do I run specific sudo commands without a password?
I have an equation, such as:  \documentclass{report}  \begin{document}  \chapter{hello} \begin{equation} x=1 \end{equation}  \end{document}   And the equation appears as "x=1 (1.1)".    What I want is "x=1 (1)" ignoring the chapter number.  How do I get that?  Thank you. What is the difference between a function decorated with  and one decorated with ? Hibernating Ubuntu on EC2 instance? I've got an application I'd like to move to EC2. It will likely spend more than half the day completely dormant, so I'm trying to come up with a good solution for starting and stopping it as needed. It takes a few minutes to start up from nothing, so it would be nice if i could hibernate the OS for quicker resumes. I've seen a couple forum discussions on the topic of hibernation within EC2, but never anything conclusive. Has anyone found a working solution to this, or at least some resources that could help me out? Voltage Controlled Current Source integrated circuit? Exists? Does anyone know of a Voltage Controlled Current Source IC? Or do you know how I can build one with as few other components as possible taking up a minimal amount of space?  current range needed is from 0mA to 350mA FTP File Upload with HTTP Proxy Is there a way to upload a file to a FTP server when behind an HTTP proxy ?  It seems that uploading a file is not supported behind an HTTP Proxy using .Net Webclient. ().  If there is no workaround ? If not, do you know a good and free FTP library I can use ?  Edit: Unfortunately, I don't have any FTP proxy to connect to. Finding an angle within an 80-80-20 isosceles triangle Why are my quotation marks causing an “unexpected token” error with this command? How can I get the source code of a Python function? Suppose I have a Python function as defined below:  def foo(arg1,arg2):     #do something with args     a = arg1 + arg2     return a   I can get the name of the function using foo.func_name. How can I programmatically get its source code, as I typed above? How does Intel Turbo Boost work? I just got a new Intel CPU, and the specifications say 3.5GHz but with turbo boost to 3.9GHz. What does Intel Turbo Boost do? From the description it sounds like they are saying "The road's speed limit is 100 km/hr, but if you get to that speed then the new speed limit is 140 km/hr". Why not just set the clock speed to 3.9GHz to start with? So what is Intel Turbo Boost actually doing? In what order do multiple readied actions with the same trigger resolve? My players have been scheming with rapid entry tactics for the megadungeon I've recently started running. Unfortunately, the monsters are aware of the adventurers, and this has lead to a weird question of priority. Given the following situation (which I'm pretty sure is going to happen next session in some form or another) what happens?     Alice the adventurer readies an action; if her teammate Carlos opens   the door, she's going to throw the alchemists fire through the door,   which should do enough damage to kill any goblins hiding there.      Meanwhile, on the other side of the door, Bob the goblin is lying in   wait. He readies an action; if the door opens, he's going to hit the   switch to open the trapdoor in the next room, which should drop any    pesky adventurers into a pit with spikes at the bottom.      Carlos opens the door.   I know what happens when , but what happens when multiple readied actions get triggered at the same time? My guess would be an opposed reflex save or initiative check of some kind to see who goes first, but that's entirely just intuition speaking. The rulebook doesn't seem to speak to the issue. Repeat each line multiple times Would like to have each line in a file repeated a fixed number of times.  e.g. have each line repeated four times:  a b c   becomes:  a a a a b b b b c c c c   I've done some searching, and there are a lot of questions and answers along the lines of doing the reverse, e.g. merging duplicate lines into single lines, and maybe a few about doubling lines by printing them again.  It would be easy to do this in C, but I wish I knew more about the native commands so I wouldn't have to resort to these kinds of one-off throw-aways all the time. Torus object stretched in array curve modifier I have a chain object. And i have a curve it follows. I got it to work for following curve, but chain object is not circles but both parts are more like stretched circles (ovals). Object i made with 2 toruses one rotated 90 degrees and then joined them together. I tried single torus too. But same issue. on a curve it just looks stretched oval. What can be the issue?   Thanks How to cut the non-overlapping part of 2 shapes in Illustrator CS6 I have 2 shapes (see below) a circle and a shape of the US. I want to remove the part of the US that falls outside the circle. How is this possible?    Thanks Following discussion , what constitutes a weapon damage die?  Is it any damage die dealt by the weapon? For example, consider a  longsword.     While the sword is ablaze, it deals an extra 2d6 fire damage to any target it hits.   What are the weapon damage dice? Just the 1d8 from the longsword? Or do the 2d6 Fire damage also count? How can I determine whether my processor is 32-bit or 64-bit? My processor is AMD Phenom 8450 triple-core. Explain $\iint \mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy = \iint r \,\mathrm \,d\alpha\,\mathrm dr$ It is changing the coordinate from one coordinate to another. There is an angle and radius on the right side. What is it? And why?  I got:  $2\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = r(\cos^2\alpha-\sin^2\alpha)\,\mathrm d\alpha \,\mathrm dr$,  where $x = r \cos(\alpha)$ and $y = r \sin(\alpha)$.  but cannot understand and get the right side. The problem emerged when trying to integrate $\displaystyle \int_0^\infty e^{\frac{-x^2}{n^2}}\,\mathrm dx$ where I tried to change the problem knowing $r^2=x^2+y^2$ but stuck to this part. What is the change in the title called and why is it so? Bind an element to two sources I currently have two text boxes which accept any number. I have a text block that takes the two numbers entered and calculates the average.   I was wondering if there was a way I could bind this text block to both text boxes and utilize a custom converter to calculate the average? I currently am catching the text changed events on both text boxes and calculating the average that way, but I am under the assumption data binding would be more efficient and easier. Is Checksum to file back decoding possible? So, I was having this weird thought. If the checksums(MD5 or SHA...) are unique to any file and are modified if any part of the file is edited, why cant the checksums be decoded back to get the original file? That is if I want to send a large(say 700MB) video, instead I could send just the hash and the file be decoded locally in my friend's computer. I know the thought is stupid, but is it possible by any chance? Or am I missing some thing here? And forgive me if I'm wrong, I ain't a professional. What is the best collation to use for MySQL with PHP? I'm wondering if there is a "best" choice for collation in MySQL for a general website where you aren't 100% sure of what will be entered? I understand that all the encodings should be the same, such as MySQL, Apache, the HTML and anything inside PHP.  In the past I have set PHP to output in "UTF-8", but which collation does this match in MySQL? I'm thinking it's one of the UTF-8 ones, but I have used utf8_unicode_ci, utf8_general_ci, and utf8_bin before. Proofs of AM-GM inequality
