How do we "restore" notepad after crash? I was running NotePad and Chrome when my computer suddenly shuts down.  After reboot, chrome was able to "restore" itself such that I didn't lose any data.  However, how do we "restore" notepad.exe? How to space columns evenly in a table with multicolumns? Does causation imply correlation?

When I am trying to execute a file(name.sh) in the command line by the command  ./name.sh  , I am getting the error that:     "." is not recognized as an internal   or external command, operable or batch   file   please help me execute the .sh file Dynamically Create a generic type for template I'm programming WCF using the ChannelFactory which expects a type in order to call the CreateChannel method. For example:   IProxy proxy = ChannelFactory&lt;IProxy&gt;.CreateChannel(...);   In my case I'm doing routing so I don't know what type my channel factory will be using. I can parse a message header to determine the type but I hit a brick wall there because even if I have an instance of Type I can't pass that where ChannelFactory expects a generic type.   Another way of restating this problem in very simple terms would be that I'm attempting to do something like this:  string listtype = Console.ReadLine(); // say "System.Int32" Type t = Type.GetType( listtype); List&lt;t&gt; myIntegers = new List&lt;&gt;(); // does not compile, expects a "type" List&lt;typeof(t)&gt; myIntegers = new List&lt;typeof(t)&gt;(); // interesting - type must resolve at compile time?   Is there an approach to this I can leverage within C#? How to fix java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Unsupported major.minor version I am working to build a reinforcement agent with DQN. The agent would be able to place buy and sell orders for a day trading purpose. I am facing a little problem with that project. The question is "how to tell the agent to maximize the profit and avoid the transaction where the profit is less than 100$".  I want to maximize the profit inside a trading day and avoid to place the pair (limit buy order, limit sell order) if the profit on that transaction is less than 100$. The idea here is to avoid the little noisy movements. Instead, I prefer long beautiful profitable movements. Be aware that I thought using the "Profit &amp; Loss" as the reward.  "I want the minimal profit per transaction to be 100$" ==> It seems this is not something that is enforceable. I can train the agent to maximize profit per transaction, but how that profit is cannot be ensured.  At the beginning, I wanted to tell the agent, if the profit of a transaction is 50 dollars, I will remove 100 dollars, then It becomes a penalty of 50 dollars for the agent. I thought it was a great way to tell the agent to not place a limit buy order if you are not sure it will give us a minimal profit of 100$. It seems that all I would be doing there is simply shifting the value of the reward. The agent only cares about maximizing the sum of rewards and not taking care of individual transactions.   How to tell the agent to maximize the profit and avoid the transaction where the profit is less than 100$? With that strategy, what guarantee that the agent will never make a buy/sell decision that results in less than 100 dollars profit? Does the sum of reward - # transaction * 100 can be a solution? How can I make my browser lie about my operating system? I'm using Chromium (Version 30.0.1599.114 Ubuntu 12.10) under Linux. I'm trying to access  that claims that it doesn't work under Linux. Of course, this is most likely crazy since the web is platform-independent (unless they're using some kind of evil plug-in).  I've used a user agent switcher to supply a Windows user agent, but to no avail. Upon viewing the source, it appears that the site is using Javascript to determine the operating system. I'm looking for a way to get my browser to report in Javascript that it is Windows or MacOS.  Do you know how to do it? Can some metadata about deleted posts be included in Data.SE?

One caveat though: I did google it and the best solution I could find was to attach an onkeypress event to every input, then check each time if the letter pressed was uppercase, and if it was, then check if shift was also held down. If it wasn't, therefore caps lock must be on. This feels really dirty and just... wasteful - surely there's a better way than this? DOS commands for Epson dot matrix not working Our Epson dot matrix printer is not printing on the following DOS command.:  Type text.txt&gt;prn   But it does print perfectly on:  open TEXT.txt&gt;File&gt;Print    What is the issue here? There are 100 ropes in a bag. In each step, two rope ends are picked at random, tied together and put back into a bag. The process is repeated until there are no free ends. What is the expected number of loops at the end of the process? A Pokemon which has the Technitian ability gets x1.5 boosted attack power for all moves used which have an attack power of 60 or less (so a move with 60 attack power will actually have 90 attack power). STAB (Same type attack bonus) gives a 50% boost to damage, assuming the attack has the same type as the Pokemon using it (so a Grass Pokemon using Razor Leaf will do 1.5 times the damage). However, I have seen contradicting information, so currently I do not know whether STAB boosts the actual damage or the move's attack power.  What I would like to know, first, is the precise manner in which a STAB is applied to an attack. Secondly, I would like to know what happens if an attack which would be affected by the Technician ability is also affected by STAB (though this answer might vary depending on the actual way that STABs work).  For example, my Scyther has the Technitian ability and attacks using the "Wing Attack" attack, which is a Flying-type attack with 60 attack power. Since Scyther is a Bug/Flying type pokemon he should also get a STAB for this attack, so just what is the eventual attack power/damage in this case?
