What is the role of NS records at the apex of a DNS domain? $ORIGIN example.com. ; not necessary, using this to self-document  $TTL 3600 @        IN     SOA   ns1.example.com. admin.example.com. (                       1970010100 7200 1800 1209600 300)  @        IN     NS   ns1.example.com. @        IN     NS   ns2.example.com.  @        IN     A    198.51.100.1 ns1      IN     A    198.51.100.2 ns2      IN     A    198.51.100.3  sub1     IN     NS   ns1.example.edu.  sub2     IN     NS   ns1.sub2 ns1.sub2 IN     A    203.0.113.1 ; inline glue record   The role of a NS record beneath the apex of a domain is well-understood; they exist to delegate authority for a subdomain to another nameserver. Examples of this above would include the NS records for sub1 and sub2. These allow the nameserver to hand out referrals for portions of the domain that it does not consider itself authoritative for.  The purpose of the NS records at the apex of a domain, ns1 and ns2 in this case, seem to be less understood by the internet at large. My understanding (which may not be holistic) is as follows:   They are not used by caching DNS servers in order to determine the authoritative servers for the domain. This is handled by , which is defined at the registrar level. The registrar never uses this information to generate the glue records. They  used to delegate authority for the entire domain to other nameservers. Trying to do so with software such as ISC BIND will not result in the "expected" referral behavior at all, as the nameserver will continue to consider itself authoritative for the zone. They are not used by the nameserver to determine whether it should return authoritative responses (AA flag set) or not; that behavior is defined by whether the software is told to be a master or a slave for the zone. Most nameserver software will quite happily serve apex NS records that disagree with the information contained by the upstream glue records, which will in turn cause well-known DNS validation websites to generate warnings for the domain.   With this being the case, what are we left with? Why are we defining this information if it doesn't appear to be consumed by caching DNS servers on the internet at large? Origin of the term "fun fact" Where does the term "fun fact" originate?-- namely, not with the compositional meaning but rather with the idiomatic usage to introduce some sort of unusual, esoteric, absurd or otherwise "controversial" fact? Should a function have only one return statement? Asume the following search queries: osx, cocoa, iphone, xcode, applescript, mac, carbon    Searching for osx, cocoa, iphone or xcode like:   http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=osx   Results into searching by tag:   http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/osx   While searching for applescript, mac and carbon like:   http://stackoverflow.com/search?q=applescript   Results into searching by string.  Yes, I know how to search by tags using brackets: [applescript] But why are the queries above interpreted differently? All queries are valid Stack Overflow tags! Why not convert all queries into search by string or search by tag? What is the logic behind? Tag popularity? It seems rather inconsistent to me. Autosegmental Representation in tikz-qtree This is what I want to achieve    and this:    But all I've been able to make with tikz-qtree is the following:  \documentclass[12pt,a4]{article} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage{tipa,tikz,tikz-qtree} \begin{document}  \begin{tikzpicture} [baseline] \tikzset{frontier/.style={distance from root=90pt}} \Tree [.$\sigma$ [.O [ p ] ] [.R [.$\mu$ a ] [.$\mu$ : ] ] ] \end{tikzpicture} \begin{tikzpicture} [baseline] \tikzset{frontier/.style={distance from root=90pt}} \Tree [.$\sigma$ [.O [ p ] ] [.R [.$\mu$ a ]  ] ] \end{tikzpicture}   And this:  \begin{tikzpicture}[baseline] \tikzset{frontier/.style={distance from root=90pt}} \Tree [.$\sigma$ [.O [ l ] ] [.R [.$\mu$ a ] [.$\mu$ l ] ] ] \end{tikzpicture} \begin{tikzpicture} [baseline] \tikzset{frontier/.style={distance from root=90pt}} \Tree [.$\sigma$ [.O [ : ] ] [.R [.$\mu$ a ] [ l ] ] ] \end{tikzpicture} \end{document}   Which renders:    and    The important part here is the linking from the leaves to more than one parent (it would be nice if I had the option of making the line dashed too). Now, pst-asr doesn't quite achieve what I want it to. It's important that I have the moras ('mu's). (Also it's a pstricks package, which means I must typeset it in DVIPSPDF.) I have tried a bit of the forest-package (especially forest-GP1), but I can't make that work as I want either. Lastly, some have recommended xyling, but I find that package very difficult to use.  Any recommendations?  Thanks. How to bypass "Verify your account" (Factory Reset Protection) Pixel RGB with ImageMagick and Rails How do you deal with a player that's determined to play the game in a way that is detrimental to the advancement of the story? How can I clear event subscriptions in C#? Take the following C# class:  c1 {  event EventHandler someEvent; }   If there are a lot of subscriptions to c1's someEvent event and I want to clear them all, what is the best way to achieve this? Also consider that subscriptions to this event could be/are lambdas/anonymous delegates.  Currently my solution is to add a ResetSubscriptions() method to c1 that sets someEvent to null. I don't know if this has any unseen consequences. Attributive nouns vs. of-genitive I would be very grateful for some advice on how to decide whether to use an attributive noun or the "of genitive" (periphrastic genitive).  It seems to me that an attributive noun is generally preferable, except when it leads to ambiguity, often due to the combination of several modifiers with mixed dependent relationships.  Additionally, the of-genitive, when used stand-alone, seems to impart a more formal tone, a higher register.  Simple examples (preferred first, less-preferred second):  The department secretary vs. the secretary of the department.  But:  The excellent secretary of the department vs. the excellent department secretary.  Any additional guidelines would be most welcome. Does the existence (now proved) of gravitational waves imply the existence of Gravitons? I studied the theoretical part about the Gravitational waves in General Relativity (linearization of gravity and small perturbations of the metric and so on).  But I was wondering about: since electromagnetic radiation is composed/carried by Photons (or better:the EM force), shall gravitational waves be composed/carried by Gravitons?   In the end:do gravitational waves imply the existence of gravitons? Or it's something unrelated and off topic? Divisibility Rule for 9 I'm working through an elementary number theory course right now and I think I've come up with a proof here but wanted some feedback on my logic.    Question:  If the sum of the digits in base 10 is divisible by 9, then the number itself is divisible by 9.    Proof: Suppose that $9|d_1+d_2+...+d_n$ then $d_1+d_2+...+d_n=0\mod9$  Now consider $d_1(10^{n-1})+d_2(10^{n-2})+...+d_{(n-1)}(10^1)+d_n(10^0)$ Each power of $10$ is equivalent to $1\mod9$   therefor  $d_1(10^{n-1})+d_2(10^{n-2})+...+d_{(n-1)}(10^1)+d_n(10^0)=(1\mod9)(d_1+d_2+...d_n)$  $9|(d_1+d_2+...d_n)$ by our assumption, thus $9|(1\mod9)(d_1+d_2+...d_n)$  Thus we have shown that if 9 divides the sum of the digits in base 10, 9 divides the number itself.    The only question I really have is whether I'm jumping the gun on my assumption concerning the powers of 10 being $1\mod 9$.  I think this is fair game here but not 100% confident.  Thanks. Consider the following piece of Markdown code:  This is some regular text.      &gt;&gt;&gt; def factorial(n):     ...     return 1 if n &lt; 2 else n * factorial(n - 1)     ...   * This is a list item.      &gt;&gt;&gt; def factorial(n):     ...     return 1 if n &lt; 2 else n * factorial(n - 1)     ...    Notice that the second code block is preceded by a list item.   Why is the factorial code not properly formatted under these circumstances? To demonstrate the problem, I'll insert the Markdown code show above:    This is some regular text.  &gt;&gt;&gt; def factorial(n): ...     return 1 if n &lt; 2 else n * factorial(n - 1) ...     This is a list item                 def factorial(n):       ...     return 1 if n &lt; 2 else n * factorial(n - 1)       ...               This applies to numbered as well as unnumbered lists. Spyder - touchpad scroll does not work I use the scroll function with my mouse and it works fine. But either in script, or in terminal sections of Spyder, I can't use the touchpad for scrolling. I do not experience any problems with my touchpad in other programs like Word, Chrome etc. Is there any option for this in Spyder, specific for touchpad?  I am using Lenovo Legion Y520, Windows 10. After starting Ubuntu, I see the following lines. Should I be worried?  /dev/sda6: recovering journal /dev/sda6: clean, 355773/1835008 files, 470404803/7335680 blocks Learn Bayesian inference applied to astronomy / astrophysics? I'm looking for resources (books, articles, sites, etc.) to learn about Bayesian inference, but specifically applied to astronomy and astrophysics. We have a directory and want to protect that from remove and rename, but we need to be able to rename, remove and create contents. What we can do? I know that there is a simple way to shutdown the computer in command prompt, but is it possible to do system updates and then shutdown the computer in command prompt?   For example, when Vista needs to install updates, it will let me install them and shut down by clicking the Shut Down button (while relegating the normal shut down button into the menu). So is there a command to do this in command prompt? How can I get form data with JavaScript/jQuery?
