Knowing which program runs a process at macos startup
Is it possible to identify what the parent program/app is from a running process?
Connecting two DC wallwarts in series - to produce dual DC supply I have two 9 V, 300 mA wallwarts and would like to connect them in series to produce +9 V, 0 V and -9 V. This can be done with two 9 V batteries (as seen below), but can I do this with two non-identical wallwarts? Proper capitalization of commonly used acronyms and initialisms Can't change font size for GD imagestring() Python, Unicode, and the Windows console When I try to print a Unicode string in a Windows console, I get an error . UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character .... I assume this is because the Windows console does not accept Unicode-only characters. What's the best way around this? Is there any way I can make Python automatically print a ? instead of failing in this situation? Edit:  I'm using Python 2.5.  Note: @LasseV.Karlsen answer with the checkmark is sort of outdated (from 2008). Please use the solutions/answers/suggestions below with care!!  is more relevant as of today (6 Jan 2016). How to log commands within a "sudo su -"? If I:   [user@notebook ~] sudo echo 123456uu 123456uu [user@notebook ~]    Then I can see that in the logs:  [root@notebook /var/log] grep 123456uu * auth.log:Jan  9 17:01:51 notebook sudo: user : TTY=pts/3 ; PWD=/home/user ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/echo 123456uu [root@notebook /var/log]    but if I:   [user@notebook ~] sudo su - [root@notebook ~] echo 1234567zz 1234567zz [root@notebook ~]    I cannot see it in the logs:   [root@notebook /var/log] grep 1234567zz * [root@notebook /var/log] echo $? 1 [root@notebook /var/log]    My question: How can I turn the logging on for the commands within the "sudo su -"?  OS is an Ubuntu 12.04 but the question is in general.   UPDATE#1:   [user@notebook ~] sudo su - [sudo] password for user:  [root@notebook ~] echo zizizi zizizi [root@notebook ~] cd /var/log [root@notebook /var/log] grep -iIR 'zizizi' * [root@notebook /var/log] grep 'COMMAND=/bin/su -' * auth.log:Jan 10 15:42:42 notebook sudo: user : TTY=pts/1 ; PWD=/home/user ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/bin/su - [root@notebook /var/log] Is "The empty set is a subset of any set" a convention? If $|f(z)|\le |f(z^2)|$ then prove that $f$ is constant Let $\Bbb D$ be the open unit disc and $f:\Bbb D\to\Bbb C$ be an analytic function such that $|f(z)|\le |f(z^2)|$, for all $z\in\Bbb D$. Prove that $f$ is constant.   Here is my proof:   For any $0&lt;r&lt;1$, consider the closed disc $B=\{z\in \Bbb D:|z|\le r\}$. Then the given condition implies that $|f(z)|\le |f(z^{2^n})|$, for all $n\in\Bbb N$ and for $z\in B$. Since for $z\in B$, $|z^{2^n}|\le r^{2^n}\to 0\implies z^{2^n}\to 0$. So by continuity, $|f(z)|\le |f(0)|$, for all $z\in B$. So by the Maximum modulus theorem, $f$ is constant on $B$. By the uniqueness theorem, $f$ is constant on $\Bbb D$. Is this correct? Let me know if there is any fallacy. Integral of $\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x^2 -9}}$ How do I remove directories that begin with a dot after my server was infected? My server had been infected and the attacker spread a bunch of .5randomletters folders around my file system, with malicious code inside of them. I want to search for all the folders that begin with a dot, review them and then remove them.  How can I do that? Can bug reports and feature requests requiring SE Dev attention be reported on per-site metas, or do they need to all go here? Similar to this question posted in August 2014:       Has the fact that  (as  in The Fires of Pompeii, and  in Torchwood’s Children of Earth season) yet been addressed/explained either in, or out of universe? What control type should I use - Image, MediaElement, etc.? Where can we find frequently updated details about travel/entry restrictions due to Coronavirus (nCoV-19)? Due to the outbreak of nCoV-19 (Novel Coronavirus) many Countries have imposed several entry restrictions. But these are quite confusing for a lot of people. Some countries allow transit through parts of China (like Shanghai) but some restrict transit even through Hong Kong/Macau. Philippines restricted passengers coming from Taiwan too, but I think that that was later changed.  Where can one find a list of such restrictions for all the countries, ideally a source that is updated frequently Similar to Lifepod 1993, but not it Weird font in system windows Suddenly all the system windows have this weird font. I can't read nor understand what the system is asking me. How can I change it to normal fonts?    I'm using OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 Work is not done by the magnetic field? Calculate time elapsed in php - spans over 24 hours Changing the resistor to be in front or behind an LED doesn't affect brightness? Note: I am very new to the more advanced side of electricity. I do not have a firm grasp on the exact mechanics.  Lets say I have an example circuit:  5V Power Supply -&gt; LED -&gt; Resistor -&gt; Ground  Now the LED is receiving 20ma and 5V. If I were to switch the LED and the resistor however, the LED should receive less voltage but the same current, so wouldn't it be dimmer? Or would it receive the same voltage?  I've looked at these two threads and their answer doesn't help. Mars needs water and women I read this book in high school too many years ago for me to think about. Martian colonist are raiding earth's oceans for water and because of the conditions on Mars where only male children are conceived, they are also on the look out for young women as potential mates. Our main character while on a raid, bags not only a young woman but her brother as well. Returning to Mars they find that Earth has attacked Mars can't remember much more.
