Why can't we read voltage between just one pin of a loaded capacitor and any ground?
What is ground and what does it do?
If I have flagged a post, show me a "flags" link in my profile I tried to change network interfaces name on this new Ubuntu 16.04 LTS version but doesn't have the /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules.  So, I tried to use /lib/udev/write_net_rules but it not exist.  Why do I need this modification? Because I'm using a tool to Simulate virtual platforms that use flex licensing and the authentication need to be in eth0 interface name.  Any suggestion?

I'm running Fedora 25 and I need to take a few particular screen captures so I've read that shutter is a great tool for that. Sadly I am unable to use it for some reason. Whenever I try to take a screenshot this is the result: I had to create an 800mm x 2000mm print and so I started by actually creating a 800mm x 2000mm file in Illustrator.  The file contained only vectors so my question is:  Can I create my file size dimensions to be smaller as long as it keeps the correct ratio for the final print?  Like I said, vector ONLY, no photos or raster images. Automatic updates are not auto-downloading I have my Xbox One set up to automatically download and install updates, the rest of my settings are shown below:    Is there a reason my games will show an update symbol on their tile, but they still don't download the update until I start the game manually? List all commands that a shell knows What can I type at my shell (which happens to be bash) that will list all the commands that are recognized?  Also, does this differ by shell? Or do all shells just have a "directory" of commands they recognize?  Secondly, different question, but how can I override any of those? In other words how can I write my own view command to replace the one existing on my Ubuntu system, which appears to just load vim. Creating random numbers with no duplicates How does reputation between the main site and its meta work on SE 2.0? I noticed that the reputation from the main site carried over to meta on Gaming (at least the first upvote), I guess that doesn't work the other way around, right?  Is it then impossible to have a meta reputation higher than the site reputation? Can a wealthy investor invest in or make a deal with a company before it goes public / IPO? Can a wealthy investor invest his money in any company before it goes public / IPO? I am referring to a recent Goldman Sachs and Facebook deal worth $450 Million at a valuation of $50 Billion dollars.   I want to know what is the procedure and how are these valuations made prior to the company going public? Is is possible that an investor could raise capital from investment banks, private equity, or commercial banks to re-invest in a pre-IPO deal at some valuation?  Knowing that angel investors don't provide so much money, can they play their role here with a normal investor? How to find a whole word in a String in java So I want to texture clothing for example that I created using the mirror modifier. But I want the 2 sides of the clothing piece to have individual designs for instance but it is not possible since the original and the mirrored surfaces use the same UV-coordinates. How can I change that? I have a site on my webhotel I would like to run some scheduled tasks on. What methods of achieving this would you recommend?  What I’ve thought out so far is having a script included in the top of every page and then let this script check whether it’s time to run this job or not.  This is just a quick example of what I was thinking about:  if ($alreadyDone == 0 &amp;&amp; time() &gt; $timeToRunMaintainance) {    runTask();    $timeToRunMaintainance = time() + $interval; }    Anything else I should take into consideration or is there a better method than this?

Alignment issue in Area 51 main site - site switcher, inbox and achievements Consider the partial sum of the divergent Harmonic series $H_n = \sum\limits_{k = 1}^{n}\frac{1}{k}$. I recently saw a question which required finding out the asymptotic bounds of $H_n$. Now, I could not find any bound closer than $O(n)$. So I looked up the series and found  Wikipedia article which says that $H_n - \ln n$ approaches a constant (the ). This clearly shows that $H_n = \Theta(\log n)$.  However, considering the question was in an beginners undergraduate algorithms course in CS, I was wondering if there is a simpler proof of this? Is there some clever proof requiring elementary mathematics to show $H_n = \Theta(\log n)$?  PS: This is not homework in the sense that it is not my homework, and the actual question does not ask for a proof, but rather asks a lot of functions to be arranged asymptotically.

I would like to set up a new business site. I plan to direct www.example.com to example.com and only use that domain. My plan is also to only use HTTPS and not HTTP.   Does this affect the SEO for the site? E.g. do Google put lower or higher rank for sites that is only available via HTTPS?
