Are there de facto rules for suggesting edits?
How far can I refactor the code in someone else's question?
3D software like GeoGebra Does it exist a free interactive geometry software, like GeoGebra, which works for 3D geometry? I would be able to draw spheres, great circles, and so on. So I wanted to make some minecoins and I also heard that anyone become a marketplace creator could but I don't know where to apply. I'm in Minecraft Pocket Edition 1.14.30. Can you tell me where I can apply? Reading shapefile using C#? I am new to ArcGIS and trying a few things..   I'm trying to read shapefile (which is supplied as an input) using C# and I want to generate a PDF file which contains underlying metadata information (similar to the Identify tool) ? Annoying FrontEnd bugs in Mathematica 10 With ksh I'm using read as a convenient way to separate values: $ echo 1 2 3 4 5 | read a b dump $ echo $b $a  2 1 $  But it fails in Bash: $ echo 1 2 3 4 5 | read a b dump $ echo $b $a     $  I didn't find a reason in the man page why it fails, any idea? When do we not put a comma before "because"? In what situation do you put a comma before "because"?   And, when do you not put a comma before "because"?   I've always assumed that you put a comma, because the clause introduced by "because" will always be independent, because it cannot stand on its own, because it wouldn't make sense on its own.   Is this the case? Could you think of an example where it doesn't take a comma? Why does the find command blow up in /run/? I used the following command to check python versions as given by . It does work except for one error, shown below. Can any one explain why?  $ sudo find / -type f -executable -iname 'python*' -exec file -i '{}' \; \     | awk -F: '/x-executable; charset=binary/ {print $1}' \     | xargs readlink -f | sort -u | xargs -I % sh -c 'echo -n "%: "; % -V'   Error:  find: ‘/run/user/1000/gvfs’: Permission denied Question 1: Let $x,y \in S$ such that $x\sim y$ if $x^2 =y^2\pmod6 $. Show that $\sim$ is an equivalence relation.    This is what I tried: Reflexive: $x^2\pmod6 = x^2$  implying $x\sim x$ Symmetry: suppose $x\sim y$, then  $x^2 =y^2\pmod6$ Operating by inverse of $x^2$ both sides we have $e=(x^2)^{-1} y^2\pmod6$ Then I have $y^2=x^2\pmod6$, hence $y\sim x$ I would like to get some corrections up to here because am not sure with this     Question 2. Find the orbits of the given permutation:    $$v:\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{Z}\quad\text{ defined by }\quad v(n)=n+3$$   Here is my solution which I would also want somebody to correct me! Let the relation $\sim$ be defined on $\mathbb{Z}$ by $a\sim b$ if $b=a+3$ I consider that the orbits of $v$ are the classes of $\mathbb{Z}$ with respect to $\sim$ given by  $\{b\mid b=a+3\}$. Thus I get only three orbits which are $\{1,4,7,10,…,3n-2\mid n\in \mathbb{Z}\}$, $\{2,5,8,…,3n-1\mid n\in \mathbb{Z}\}$, and $\{3,6,9,…,3n \mid n\in \mathbb{Z}\}$. glBufferData not working outside main function The question  only deals with flights in the US sourced from the  . Is there some similar source for EU, Asia etc? Smaller vs. less vs. lesser I am confused as to some of the vocabulary that can be used to compare numbers and quantities, and would very much appreciate some clarification.   I suppose it is safe to say that 1 is smaller than 2.   Can I also say that 1 is less than 2, and if so, which form is preferable?   It seems that saying that 1 is lesser than 2 is uncommon - but is it incorrect?   Finally, -2 is clearly less than -1, but is it true that -2 is smaller than -1? (If I have 2$ of debt, then I would say that I have less money than if I had 1$ of debt, but I would also say that my debt was larger, not smaller). Having recently introduced an overload of a method the application started to fail. Finally tracking it down, the new method is being called where I did not expect it to be.  We had  setValue( const std::wstring&amp; name, const std::wstring&amp; value );  std::wstring avalue( func() ); setValue( L"string", avalue ); std::wstring bvalue( func2() ? L"true", L"false" ); setValue( L"bool", bvalue ); setValue( L"empty", L"" );   It was changed so that when a bool value is stored we use the same strings (internal data storage of strings)  setValue( const std::wstring&amp; name, const std::wstring&amp; value ); setValue( const std::wstring&amp; name, const bool&amp; value );  std::wstring avalue( func() ); setValue( L"string", avalue ); setValue( L"bool", func2() ); setValue( L"empty", L"" ); &lt;&lt; --- this FAILS!?!   The problem with L"" is that it is implicitly casting and previously it was happy to be a std::wstring, but not it prefers to be a bool. The MSVC compiler does not complain, or raise warning, so I'm worried that even if I "fix" the setValue( L"empty", L"" ); to be  setValue( L"empty", std::wstring() );   somebody else may come later and simply use setValue( L"empty", L"" ); and have to track down this issue again.  We thought to use explicit on the method but it is not a valid keyword for this usage. Is there some way to get the compiler to complain about this, or otherwise prevent the issue?  Otherwise I'm thinking to change the name of the method which takes a bool to ensure it can't make an incorrect guess. How to print the longest line in a file? I'm looking for the simplest method to print the longest line in a file. I did some googling and surprisingly couldn't seem to find an answer. I frequently print the length of the longest line in a file, but I don't know how to actually print the longest line. Can anyone provide a solution to print the longest line in a file? Thanks in advance. How can I find more music similar to the ones I like? What do I do if I don't have a META-INF folder or minecraft.jar? I have looked all over the Internet for solutions but I have got nothing.  I want to install the minepainter mod but I need a META-INF folder and a minecraft.jar. We have 10 PC with some version of Ubuntu and only remote access. While doing some upgrades to custom software I did not notice that the line endings in some scripts were Windows version (CR+LF) and not the Unix version (LF). So now when I want to launch the script it gives an error:   bash: /usr/local/bin/portsee: /usr/bin/python^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory   Is there a way to change all line endings in a script from terminal. The thing is that I can not install any new software to this group of PC-s. Understanding ROC curve Can I get more than 1000 records from a DirectorySearcher? I just noticed that the return list for results is limited to 1000. I have more than 1000 groups in my domain (HUGE domain). How can I get more than 1000 records? Can I start at a later record? Can I cut it up into multiple searches?  Here is my query:  DirectoryEntry dirEnt = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://dhuba1kwtn004"); string[] loadProps = new string[] { "cn", "samaccountname", "name", "distinguishedname" }; DirectorySearcher srch = new DirectorySearcher(dirEnt, "(objectClass=Group)", loadProps); var results = srch.FindAll();   I have tried to set srch.SizeLimit = 2000;, but that doesn't seem to work. Any ideas? "Heard me [infinitive]" vs. "heard me [present participle]" What is a magic number, and why is it bad? What is a magic number?  Why should it be avoided?  Are there cases where it's appropriate?
