Sum of (example: 0+1+2+3 = 6 , 0+1+2+3+4+5+6+7 = 28 and so on) When can we use 'much' in affirmative clauses? I found the below in  web-site:     We use much in questions and negative clauses to talk about degrees of something.      We don’t use much in affirmative clauses.   Also, it the same web-site, I found the following:     She runs much faster than he does.    also I noticed that some web-sites use much with affirmative clauses:     May we all be having this much fun and getting this much exercise when we're his age!    Is it Okey to use much in affirmative clauses? If yes, when can we use it? and what is the rules?  Update:  Here is another example on how often the word "much" is used  in informal style:     After much consideration I will NOT be performing at the Inauguration with my improv group Capitol Hill-arious I'm writing a simple bash script, but I need it to check whether it's being run as root or not. I know there's probably a very simple way to do that, but I have no idea how.  Just to be clear: What's a simple way to write a script foo.sh, so that the command ./foo.sh outputs 0, and the command sudo ./foo.sh outputs 1? Valid US visa on expired passport. Can I travel to the US? In reading through the original GCM specification (), the composition of the 128 bit Initialization Vector as a concatenation of a 96b nonce and a 32b unsigned wrapping counter seems arbitrary and forces the scrambling pattern to repeat every 232 16-byte block.  Is the algorithm expected to be secure for significantly longer stream lengths if for example the IV were a 128b nonce XORed with a 64b or 128b counter, or are there known cryptanalysis issues that begin to arise? Is there a way to get the name of the currently executing method in Java? How to create a bootable USB with multiple ISO images in it What I want is to create a bootable pen drive that shows GRUB menu and I can select any of the several bootable systems from there to install/run. I have several ISO images that I want to install in the USB like Ubuntu, Fedora, System Rescue CD, Windows XP and Windows 7 (The windows versions are optional, mostly am looking for a multi installer for Linux distros, specially Ubuntu version)  The default Startup Disk Creator only works with Linux Images and only 1 at a time (At least for the mean time. If it allows more systems and multiple ISOs it would be awesome)  What method exists that I can use step by step to create a bootable USB Drive with multiple images than can be booted from the USB and selected from GRUB. It must support Windows Images and Linux Images.  Alternatively, is there also a way to have multiple versions of the Ubuntu installation ISO on same USB Drive, such as, when booting from it, I get to choose what Ubuntu version and architecture to install, for example:     BOOT MENU   Ubuntu 12.04 32 Bit   Ubuntu 12.04 64 Bit   Ubuntu 12.10 32 Bit   Ubuntu 12.10 64 Bit   UPDATE: Wanted to add that the English version for the post mentioned by daithib8 is here: Is there a free or open source library to read Excel files (.xls) directly from a C# program?   It does not need to be too fancy, just to select a worksheet and read the data as strings. So far, I've been using Export to Unicode text function of Excel, and parsing the resulting (tab-delimited) file, but I'd like to eliminate the manual step. From the  article on Wikipedia, the following with regard to the Coriolis Effect on a rotating sphere:     By setting vn = 0, it can be seen immediately that (for positive φ and ω) a movement due east results in an acceleration due south. Similarly, setting ve = 0, it is seen that a movement due north results in an acceleration due east. In general, observed horizontally, looking along the direction of the movement causing the acceleration, the acceleration always is turned 90° to the right and of the same size regardless of the horizontal orientation.   My intuitive (but possibly incorrect) understanding is that if there are two points, Point A and Point B, at different latitudes in the Northern hemisphere, the Eastward velocities of these points are different because they are at different distances from the Earth's axis of rotation, and this causes the Coriolis effect for a rotating sphere.  If a projectile is fired due North from Point A near the Equator towards Point B near the North Pole, the projectile will start off with the higher Eastward velocity of Point A, and will land to the East of Point B, which is moving East at a slower velocity than the projectile.  Firstly, is that correct?  If that IS correct, that brings me to the quote off Wikipedia. The quote implies that, if a projectile is fired due East, it will experience a Coriolis force to the South. My intuitive explanation based on differences in velocities between origin and destination does not account for a Southwards movement at all, since the Point A and Point B velocities are identical if the points are on the same latitude.  What am I missing? Would a projectile fired due East or due West experience any North or South drift caused by the Coriolis effect (or anything else for that matter)?  Why? What is wrong with this query? (Unknown error parsing query) When I run the following query in query editor I get this error.  Error     Unknown error parsing query   Query  SELECT Id, OwnerId,Account.OwnerId FROM Contact where OwnerId = Account.OwnerId limit 100   Does anybody know what the problem is? Why aren't my guide and other dead NPCs respawning in Terraria? I am currently in hard mode and during a blood moon, several of my NPCs including my guide and my healer died. it's been several in game "days" now and they have yet to respawn. Is there a way to check why they aren't respawning?   Is there a list of reasons for the NPCs to not respawn?   Edit in reponse to lunbok's answer:  1. They don't have appropriate housing - There is an in-game housing query function (changes your cursor into a ?) that lets you click on your house to see if it is still a suitable house and I clicked in every room in my house and they are all listed as "This housing is suitable" or "This housing is already occupied".  2. Their spawn conditions aren't met anymore. - This doesn't explain why my guide isn't respawning since they don't need a condition to respawn (other than having a suitable housing which the point above already prove isn't the problem).  3. There's a goblin invasion going on. - Do the invasions last that long? It has been about two reals days and a lot more in-game "days" now. As far as I can tell there shouldn't be an invasion going on.  4. It could be because you built your house in a part of the world that is now corrupted Class imbalance strategies When dealing with the class imbalance problem in a binary classifier, there are three ways I know of to address it: over-sampling, under-sampling and using cost-sensitive methods.   Are there any guidelines, rules of thumb or general strategies to choose among these methods? A possible answer would be: over-sample when the positive class has more than 100 instances (I just made it up). Can I put 700c tires on rims made for 27 x 1.25"? Peer to Peer: Methods of Finding Peers Are there any known methods of finding peers without using a dedicated central server?  ie: If I have peers which are disconnecting and reconnecting to the internet but getting a new IP address each time, and I want to connect to them without setting up a dedicated server to register with.  I was thinking about using peers email address to send a manifest of connected peers periodically, with some sort of timecode, negating the need for a dedicated server.  This would be a fallback if none of the peers could be connected to after trying all the previously known peer addresses.  But existing models of finding peers would be preferable. In the absence of a signal handler, does SIGTERM behave identically to SIGKILL? One-dimensional vector space and it's subspaces LLC-SCorp to self - actually, does the corp pay payroll taxes? In the USA. Here are the two common scenarios for the self-employed:  A. Joe makes 100,000 over the year. It's paid to him as 1099 payments from his various clients.  Joe pays the many taxes on that.  B. Joe makes 100,000 over the year.  He has an LLC as SCorp (or maybe an SCorp per se).  The clients pay $100,000 to the entity JoeCorp.  JoeCorp pays Joe a certain salary (it might be the whole 100,000, or, it might be (let's say) half of that and the rest is taken as profit distribution, not relevant here).  So, JoeCorp (his LLC) pays Joe say $50,000.  In fact: does JoeCorp have to pay "payroll taxes" on that??  Does it perhaps make a difference if it is an LLC with S-Corp election v. S-Corp?  (I realize there are many questions on here about "1099 v. corp" .... but I've never really understood this and can't seem to google it up.) Why can I modify a read-only file? Short Question:  Why can we manipulate a read-only file in Vim using : + w + q + ! even without being an administrator?  Long Question:  I have a text file (myFile.txt) which is read-only for everyone:  navid@navid-ThinkPad-T530:~/ubuntuTest$ ls -l myFile.txt  -r--r--r-- 1 navid navid 26 Aug 22 21:21 myFile.txt   I can open it with Vim without having admin privileges:  navid@navid-ThinkPad-T530:~/ubuntuTest$ vi myFile.txt    I modify it and press: Esc + : + w + q + Enter and I see this error message:  E45: 'readonly' option is set (add ! to override)   So far, everything makes sense.  But when I press: Esc + : + w + q + ! + Enter, Vim saves the changes.  I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and VIM 7.4. Method always returns true? I dont need this vertices and/or edge. What is the best way to get rid of them?
