What is the purpose of the Character Table in style files? What is the reason to insert the code below at the beginning of a style file?

I'm working on a jet in blender. While thinking about the final scene, I wondered if there was a way to create schock diamonds(also known as Mach diamonds, Mach disks, Mach rings, donut tails or thrust diamonds) in blender.  Hopefully somebody can help, I haven't found anything online.      picture from wikipedia  picture from Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X  thanks for any tips.  tags: mach, schock, diamond, jet, exhaust, afterburner, engine, Physical phenomena  edit: added some pictures, Could the Horcruxes be destroyed with Avada Kedavra? In The Deathly Hallows Hermione says this about destroying Horcruxes:     “It doesn’t have to be a basilisk fang,” said Hermione patiently.   “It has to be something so destructive that the Horcrux can’t repair   itself. Basilisk venom only has one antidote, and it’s incredibly   rare—"      "That’s a problem we’re going to have to solve though, because ripping, smashing, or  crushing a Horcrux won’t do the trick. You’ve got to put it beyond magical repair.”   Mad-Eye Moody from The Goblet of Fire tells us this about Avada Kedavra,     ...there's no countercurse. There's no blocking it.   but also that,      Avada Kedavra's a curse that needs a powerful bit of magic behind it - you could   all get your wands out now and point them at me and say the words, and I doubt   I'd get so much as a nosebleed.    Harry is also seen once attempting to use Crucio on Bellatrix Lestrange in The Order of the Phoenix out of anger at the death of Sirius, but he fails. She tells him,     "You need to mean [Unforgivable Curses], Potter! You need to really want to cause pain - to enjoy it - righteous anger won't hurt me for long - I'll show you how it is done, shall I? I'll give you a lesson -"   Even if Harry and company are not powerful enough to perform the curse themselves, they know several powerful wizards (Kingsley, Lupin, et al.) who could likely perform the curse.  Lastly we know that Voldemort himself destroyed the last bit of his soul that was inside Harry with Avada Kedavra.  Could the Horcruxes be destroyed with Avada Kedavra as well? I've noticed this issue on a handful of other communities, but making the browser window narrow (mine is 1080x960) makes the .post-layout and #sidebar elements overlap. Maybe something to do with the grid CSS? The #mainbar element seems to be the correct width and changing the .post-layout's overflow-x to auto seems to "fix" it  From retrocomputing:    From this post, because we are meta after all:    Specs:   Google Chrome Version 78.0.3904.108 (Official Build) (64-bit) Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS How do I execute PHP that is stored in a MySQL database? I'm trying to write a page that calls PHP that's stored in a MySQL database. The page that is stored in the MySQL database contains PHP (and HTML) code which I want to run on page load.  How could I go about doing this? Does a constantly accelerating charged particle emit EM radiation or not? The  gives the recoil force, $\mathbf{F_{rad}}$, back on a charged particle $q$ when it emits electromagnetic radiation. It is given by:  $$\mathbf{F_{rad}} = \frac{q^2}{6\pi \epsilon_0 c^3}\mathbf{\dot{a}},$$  where $\mathbf{\dot{a}}$ is the rate of change of acceleration.  If a particle has a constant acceleration, $\mathbf{\dot{a}}=0$, then there is no reaction force acting on it. Therefore the particle does not lose energy.   Does this mean that a constantly accelerating charged particle does not emit electromagnetic radiation?

A link to a source or reference would be fantastic, too. How to use Launchctl for schedule application I try to work with Launchctl and have a question:  How can I set up an application to run in a few minutes using Launchctl? (for example, open the program MyApp.app with arguments "hello" "world" Every 10 minutes)  I know that it can easily be done by creating Launch Agent, I looking for a way to do it using Launchctl directly to programmatically. Why do I have the "required reviews completed" status on my submission in Elsevier? I had submitted my paper in an Elsevier journal one year back. Now, status update on the submission tracking says "Required reviews completed." However, for the last two weeks still there is no change in the status.  Should I ask the editor what is going on with my submission? Uncertainty modeling for samples I have instances of data that are composed of 6 attributes. Each attribute takes values between 1-10. Any instance has a utility calculated by some utility function:  Example: {1,1,2,5,5,2} , utility = 0.89  In some readings for these attribute values, undefined values may appear in the instance, I mark them as question mark '?'  Example: {1,1,?,5,?,2}  These question marks represents uncertainty in the instance.  How can I model this uncertainty in a statistical or mathematical way ?   Thanks Presently, how much information can a quantum computer store, in how many qubits? What restrictions are there and how does it vary across realizations (efficiency of data storage, ease of reading and writing, etc)? echo "#!" fails -- "event not found" The question is :   Show that $I=\langle 2+2 i\rangle$ is not a prime ideal of $\mathbb Z[i]$. Also find the number of elements in $\mathbb Z[i]/I$ and its characteristic.  My try:  I started with elements $2, 1+i \in \mathbb Z[i]$. Clearly, the product is $0$ in the coset representation.  The part where i am struck at is the number of elements and the characteristic.  Well, $2+2i+\langle 2+2i\rangle=0+\langle 2+2i\rangle$  Can we directly write $i^2=-1$ in the coset representation? I'm giving training to a large group of people remotely and will be covering a number of application shortcut keys.  I've seen 's on-screen display of keystrokes; is there a similar product for Windows?    The other features of MousePose (fancy mouse pointers, etc.) aren't really useful to me, just the OSD of key presses. The abstract environment changes the \linewidth for the whole document In the article class, it seems that using the abstract environment has an effect to the rest of the document. More precisely, it seems that it redefines the \linewidth, which equals \textwidth without abstract, is smaller with the abstract. My feeling is that \linewidth is redefined for the abstract environment, but the value is not reseted at the end of the abstract.  Here is a minimal example:  \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \abstract{This is an abstract. This is an abstract.}\bigskip  This is text. This is text. This is text. This is text. This is text. This is text.\\  \rule{\textwidth}{3em} \rule{\linewidth}{3em} \end{document}   The output is not the same if you comment the \abstract line or not.  Do you have the same problem as I do when you compile (if not, I will upload some PDF files to show)? Is this a (known) bug in LaTeX2e? How can we circumvent the problem?
