Drawing wavy, wiggly lines in QGIS? Is there a QGIS function or plugin to draw wiggly line?   I have used Spline Tool to manually draw some waves, but it is time consuming.  If possible, I would like to draw something like:    Inkscape Function Plotter ( sin(x) curve). I've been wondering why I've never seen any official specifications of the maximum allowed torque that can be exerted upon lens mounts. It seems to me like a very useful specification, but I can't seem to find it from any manufacturer.  indicates that there might be no specifications for Nikon mounts. Are there really no manufacturer that publish these specification of their mounts? I use ps -ef | grep catalina | grep -v grep to print the tomcat process running on the system:  kshitiz   7099     1  0 May11 ?        00:02:29 /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0/bin/java -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,suspend=y,address=localhost:38156 -Dcatalina.base=/home/kshitiz/Documents/workspaces/ggts/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp1 -Dcatalina.home=/opt/tomcat-7.0.42 -Dwtp.deploy=/home/kshitiz/Documents/workspaces/ggts/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.wst.server.core/tmp1/wtpwebapps -Djava.endorsed.dirs=/opt/tomcat-7.0.42/endorsed -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -classpath /opt/tomcat-7.0.42/bin/bootstrap.jar:/opt/tomcat-7.0.42/bin/tomcat-juli.jar:/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0/lib/tools.jar org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start   Then I use ps -ef | grep catalina | grep -v grep | awk -F' ' '{print $2}' to extract the process id:  7099   But when I alias the whole command alias tomcat_id="ps -ef | grep catalina | grep -v grep | awk -F' ' '{print $2}'" and use it via alias, it prints the whole text and awk doesn't seem to work.  type tomcat_id gives:  tomcat_id is aliased to `ps -ef | grep catalina | grep -v grep | awk -F' ' '{print }'' One thing that made me curious while watching a football game on TV was the numbers that appear on the ground. For instance, there's a "1st &amp; 10" beside one team, but there was a "3rd &amp; 6" a few minutes prior (and I think it was beside the other team). What do these numbers mean? I know that it does consider ' ' as NULL, but that doesn't do much to tell me why this is the case.  As I understand the SQL specifications, ' ' is not the same as NULL -- one is a valid datum, and the other is indicating the absence of that same information.  Feel free to speculate, but please indicate if that's the case.  If there's anyone from Oracle who can comment on it, that'd be fantastic!

New tags page mangles tag wiki excerpts Falsely accused witch befriends transforming dragon she was to be sacrificed to Story is in a medievalish setting and starts with a woman who has been falsely accused of being a witch being taken by 2 men to be sacrificed to a dragon.  She ends up befriending the (male) dragon, who is able to transform into various forms, including human, and can speak only the language of whatever form he is in. e.g. can speak English in human form, but can't in dragon form.  He needs to return to his dragon form every day at sunrise or he dies.  Contact with iron or steel causes him pain and prevents him from transforming.  Near the end of the book, he's been put in handcuffs by one of the two men from the start and the woman has to get the assistance of the other one (village blacksmith?) to remove them before sunrise, which they manage to do just in time.  I think I read it maybe 10 years ago.    I also remember it was a very short book, probably only about 100 pages. How to correctly setup Ubuntu 18.04 LTS installed from mini.iso to use NetworkManager? Can you add new statements to Python's syntax? Can you add new statements (like print, raise, with) to Python's syntax?  Say, to allow..  mystatement "Something"   Or,  new_if True:     print "example"   Not so much if you should, but rather if it's possible (short of modifying the python interpreters code) Transformations from n-sphere coordinates to cartesian coordinates. I was wondering how one would proceed to convert between coordinate systems in $ \mathbb R^n $.  For $ \mathbb R^2 $ the conversion is easy and just basic trigonometry. Given $(r, \theta)$ we can convert these polar coordinates to cartesian coordinates to $(x=r\cos\theta, y=r\sin\theta)$  The same follows for $ \mathbb R^3 $. Given $(r,\theta_1,\theta_2)$ in spherical coordinates we can convert the spherical coordinates to cartesian coordinates with the following transformation $(x=r\cos\theta_2\cos\theta_1,y=r\cos\theta_2\sin\theta_1, z=r\sin\theta_2)$, just so my point of reference is clear:$\theta_1$is the angle lying in the x-y plane, and  $\theta_2$ is the angle the vector makes with the x-y plane.  So what about for four dimensions and up? For the sake of simplicity we can define the n-sphere vector as $(r,\theta_1,\theta_2,...,\theta_n)$ and the cartesian vectors $(x_1,x_2,...,x_n)$ and maintain the same reference of $\theta_1,\theta_2$ as before.  How do we define a transformation in $ \mathbb R^4 $?  A look into this wikipedia page under the  gave me something that I don't believe is quite right.  As according to the section  $(x_1=r\cos\theta_1,x_2=r\sin\theta_1 \cos\theta_2,x_3=\sin\theta_1 \sin\theta_2\cos\theta_3,...)$ which is already in contradiction to my statement about $ \mathbb R^3$ transformations.   What is the general transformation rule? Am I missing something that I should know from linear algebra that I might be forgetting because my linear algebra is rusty? If so, please let me know what I should review or point me in the right direction.

Implications? Alastair Rae states that there are 4 postulates of Quantum Mechanics in his text on the subject matter.  The first part of his second postulate can be stated as:      Every dynamical variable may be represented by a Hermitian operator whose eigenvalues represent the result of carrying out a measurement of the value of the dynamical variable...   My question is: just how much can we deduce from saying that the some of the operators involved in Quantum Mechanics are Hermitian?  When I use the word Hermitian, I am referring to the property that $A=A^+$ where $A$ is an operator and $A^+$ is the adjoint of $A$.  Does an operator being Hermitian automatically imply that there will exist eigenfunctions and eigenvalues corresponding to this operator?  Does being Hermitian imply that, should there exist eigenfunctions corresponding to this operator, they will form a complete and orthonormal set?  That any wavefunction can be expanded in terms of these eigenfunction?  Just how much is hidden in the word "Hermitian"? Can a single player build a clan dojo? Is it possible for an one-or-two-person clan to build a dojo? If so, what are the resources involved?   I'd like to experience the whole Dojo building experience so I don't plan to join an existing Clan with a dojo already. In the review page, it shows stats of recent reviewers.

Add 1Password extensions support to the SE iOS app Please implement the URL scheme to call 1Password for password lookups on the iOS app.   a URL scheme for switching to 1Password to search item titles for a custom term, usually a service name like “twitter” or “evernote”. This speeds up the process for the user so they can copy something like their password and get back to your app  That will ease sign up speed using long, complicated or unmemorable passwords for many users of both apps. In the two years since the above blog was published there are now updated instructions for implementation and code on github:
