What is Ubuntu's status on the Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities? Any questions relating to status updates, or asking if anything is going to be patched for these vulnerabilities should be closed as duplicates of this question.    are in the news right now and sound pretty severe. I don't see any security updates from Ubuntu that cover these vulnerabilities.  What is Ubuntu doing about these vulnerabilities, and what should Ubuntu users be doing?  These are CVE-2017-5753, CVE-2017-5715 and CVE-2017-5754. I have this statement and I need to say if it is true or false:  Let $\{a_n\}$ be a real sequence.  $$\lim_{n\to +\infty} a_n = 0 \quad \implies \quad \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^na_n \quad \text{converges}$$  I know, from the Leibniz criterion that:     If $a_n \to 0$, $a_n$ is decreasing and positive then $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^na_n$ converges   From this fact I believe that the statement is false but I couldn't come up with an infinitesimal sequence that isn't decreasing and for that reason is divergent. I tried some function with $sin(\frac{1}{n})$ without any luck. Any help would be very appreciated, thank you! My Developer Account cannot be activated because I used a relative's credit card How can an uneducated but rational person differentiate between science and religion? I recently found myself unable to respond to the statement "But the big bang theory is just another creation myth!" during a science vs. religion argument. I found it very difficult to explain the difference between the big bang theory and creation myths without going through a crash course in Newtonian and then Relativistic mechanics.   This had me thinking of the following scenario: Consider a person who for various reasons never got a formal education beyond basic reading and writing. He/She doesn't know any science or math, and was never exposed to any scientific reasoning and experiments. She/He is however an open minded, level headed, and rational person (I've met more than one such person myself).   How would such a person differentiate science from religion? As far as he/she is concerned science has the exact same structure as religion:    A hard to understand scripture: Science treatises and journal papers.  An ordained clergy with a high entry barrier: Doctors, professors, scientists, etc... Seemingly arbitrary injunctions against certain behaviors: "Don't smoke", "Don't pollute",.... Various metaphysical (from his/her perspective) claims about the world around us: The big bang, other galaxies, blackholes, quarks,... Organizations which control and oversee doctrine: The FDA, The NIH, The NFS,...   From his/her perspective, all of these characteristics are no different than the way organized religion presents itself as being the source of truths about the world.   In particular if such a person were to heed the advice of the :         Do not go upon what has been acquired by repeated hearing (anussava),   nor upon tradition (paramparā),   nor upon rumor (itikirā),   nor upon what is in a scripture (piṭaka-sampadāna)   nor upon surmise (takka-hetu),   nor upon an axiom (naya-hetu),   nor upon specious reasoning (ākāra-parivitakka),   nor upon a bias towards a notion that has been pondered over (diṭṭhi-nijjhān-akkh-antiyā),   nor upon another's seeming ability (bhabba-rūpatāya),   nor upon the consideration, The monk is our teacher (samaṇo no garū) Kalamas, when you yourselves know: "These things are good; these   things are not blamable; these things are praised by the wise;   undertaken and observed, these things lead to benefit and happiness,"   enter on and abide in them.'      Following the Buddha's advice (ironically himself a religious figure), such a rational but uneducated person would have just as much reason to doubt the various results of scientists as to doubt the dogmas of organized religion.    How would it be possible for such a person to distinguish scientific facts from religious dogma?  How can we convince such a person of the validity of ideas like those of modern cosmology or evolutionary biology, without first having to teach them enough biology and physics to understand those concepts? Is there a way to start over?  No spoilers here, but after a certain point in the game I wish I had done something different, so I'd like to perhaps start over and make some different decisions based on my current game play experience. Restore SQL Server 2012 backup to a SQL Server 2008 database? Why does the standard error of the intercept increase the further $\bar x$ is from 0? The standard error of the intercept term ($\hat{\beta}_0$) in $y=\beta_1x+\beta_0+\varepsilon$ is given by $$SE(\hat{\beta}_0)^2 = \sigma^2\left[\frac{1}{n}+\frac{\bar{x}^2}{\sum_{i=1}^n(x_i-\bar{x})^2}\right]$$ where $\bar{x}$ is the mean of the $x_i$'s.  From what I understand, the SE quantifies your uncertainty- for instance, in 95% of the samples, the interval $[\hat{\beta}_0-2SE,\hat{\beta}_0+2SE]$ will contain the true $\beta_0$. I fail to understand how the SE, a measure of uncertainty, increases with $\bar{x}$. If I simply shift my data, so that $\bar{x}=0$, my uncertainty goes down? That seems unreasonable.  An analogous interpretation is - in the uncentered version of my data, $\hat{\beta}_0$ corresponds to my prediction at $x=0$, while in the centered data, $\hat{\beta}_0$ corresponds to my prediction at $x=\bar{x}$. So does this then mean that my uncertainty about my prediction at $x=0$ is greater than my uncertainty about my prediction at $x=\bar{x}$? That seems unreasonable too, the error $\epsilon$ has the same variance for all values of $x$, so my uncertainty in my predicted values should be the same for all $x$.  There are gaps in my understanding I'm sure. Could somebody help me understand what's going on? How can I set an external display (monitor) as the primary one? Currently the MacBook's display works as primary, so every application I open gets open on the 13" and I have to drag it to the 24". I also don't have access to the dock on my 24".  Is is possible to turn off the MacBook screen and use only the one attached via DVI?  (I've just connected my 24" HP LP2475w via Mini DisplayPort to DVI to my MacBook Pro 13", which works great except for this one thing.) Why does observation collapse the wave function? In one of the first lectures on QM we are always taught about Young's experiment and how particles behave either as waves or as particles depending on whether or not they are being observed. I want to know what about observation causes this change? How do I format a number in Java? Perturbation property of Orthonormal basis for Hilbert space Let $r$ be the smallest positive integer such that $a^r \equiv 1 \bmod{n}$. Prove $r \mid \phi(n)$. Let $a \in \mathbb {Z}$, $n &gt; 1$ a natural number with $\gcd(a, n) = 1$, and let $r$ be the smallest positive integer such that $a^r \equiv 1 \bmod{n}$. Prove that $r \mid \phi(n)$.  Euler's generalization of Fermat's Little Theorem: If $n \in \mathbb {N}$ and $m \in \mathbb{Z}$ such that $\gcd(m, n) = 1$, then $m^{\phi(n)} \equiv 1\bmod(n)$.  By Euler's generalization I would have $a^{\phi(n)} \equiv 1\bmod{n}$.  Then I could say $a^r \equiv a^{\phi(n)} \equiv 1 \bmod{n}$. At this point I can see that $r$ clearly must be some multiple of $\phi(n)$.  If I want to show that $r \mid \phi(n)$, then I can show that $\phi(n) = rk$, for some $k \in \mathbb {Z}$.  However, I am a bit stuck about how to make this last step showing that  $\phi(n) = rk$, where $k \in \mathbb {Z}$. How do I give players already enchanted Tools/Armour/Weapons I'm making a map where I want players to be able to choose there kits/classes. The problem I'm having with it though is giving players already enchanted Tools/Armour/Weapons.  I'm not sure if you can use the /give [player] [item] [amount] because you'll have to use the whole {} thing and I'm not sure how to make enchanted Tools/Armour/Weapons using that.  Can anyone help? How to compute $\,3^{3^{3^{\:\!\phantom{}^{.^{.^.}}}}}\!\!\!\!\bmod 46,$ for power tower height $2020$? What is the remainder of $\,3^{3^{3^{\:\!\phantom{}^{.^{.^.}}}}}\!\!\!$ divided by $46$?  The level of powers is $2020$.  First there is no parenthesis so it means 3 power of 3 which is also power 3 and so on 2020 times  Second I think that we can use Fermat's Little Theorem but I don't know how, and maybe there is a better way. $\sum \cos$ when angles are in arithmetic progression Possible Duplicate:          Prove $$\cos(\alpha) + \cos(\alpha + \beta) + \cos(\alpha + 2\beta) + \dots + \cos[\alpha + (n-1)\beta] = \frac{\cos(\alpha + \frac{n-1}{2}\beta) \cdot \sin\frac{n\beta}{2}}{\sin\frac{\beta}{2}} $$ The IPA symbol for the labiodental flap (ⱱ) This is perhaps a simple question with a simple answer, but I'm stumped as a tikz novice.

When and what cause Voldemort to look the way he does, vs how we've seen him as a teen? As the title says, when and what made Voldemort look the way he does (pale, snake-like etc) as opposed to how we've seen him in his earlier years as Tom Riddle? Is it just a side effect of his unnatural resurrection? Before he died attacking Harry as a baby did he look like a normal guy? Is there a way to make Git mark a file as conflicted? Problem:   Prove that a set of nine consecutive integers cannot be partitioned into two subsets with same product   My attempt:  This problem would be solved if it could be proven that 9 consecutive numbers cannot exist such that all the numbers are of the form $2^a  3^b  5^c  7^d$ where $a,b,c,d$ are integers.  A suitable hint would be appreciated, I don not want a complete solution.  Edit:  If there existed a prime factor greater than $7$ of any number present in the set, then its multiple cannot exist b/c $22-11&gt;9$  Edit 2: As mentioned by Erick, my reasoning is not valid for numbers $1-9$ and $2-9$, let this be an exception.
