How to launch terminal on login How could I get the terminal to be launched once I have logged in, so that typing commands is much simpler? What do you call an 'unselfish' action made with a selfish reason? There are many examples of this, and I'd like to give a few:   A person who puts a lot of effort to help the community and earns reputation points. But that reputation is the motivation behind helping the community, not because they really want to. A student approaches a professor, and helps them in their teaching and doing research in order to have a good LOR (letter of recommendation). To a SEO, the content of the website must be good (well, this one is a little tricky, but you get the spirit.)   I'm not saying that the reputation/LOR/high-ranked is not deserved. It is. I just want to focus more on the selfish reason(s) behind that.  Any kind of answer can be accepted: single word, phrase, proverb or idiom. Perfect infinitive Is it possible to print a variable's type in standard C++? For example:  int a = 12; cout &lt;&lt; typeof(a) &lt;&lt; endl;   Expected output:  int Two column float with [t] using the cas-dc template I am using the cas-dc template for Elsevier. When trying to use \begin{figure*}[t], except I get the error 'The module 'cas/fig' does not have a key called 'cas/fig/t'. Other templates I use work fine. I have included \usepackage{stfloats}. I don't see anything mentioned that strictly forbids it, unless I missed this. Anyone know why? Blender image output is greyish and not white Why is Ubuntu Software Center dropping previously provided applications? Ubuntu Software used to provide Pinta, KolourPaint, Audacity, and others, but they are no longer available there. I have to use apt to install them.   Why has Ubuntu Software 3.20.5 stopped providing applications that it used to?  Ubuntu 16.04 Ubuntu Software Center 3.20.5  Thanks in advance for your help! How to install qt 4.8 from repository? I would like to make cross references to own defined counter on environments. So far I have tried the following,   \documentclass{book} \newcounter{entryc}[subsection] \newcommand{\thetheorem}{\thesubsection.\arabic{entryc}} \newenvironment{qd}[1]{\refstepcounter{entryc}\noindent\textbf{Quasi Definition \thetheorem.}\begin{itshape}} {\end{itshape}} % \begin{document}  \chapter{First chapter} This is the first chapter.  \section{First section} This is the first section.  \subsection{First subsection} This is the first subsection.  \begin{qd}{}\label{qd:emp} This is my environment. \end{qd}  \noindent In quasi definition \ref{qd:emp} it \dots  \end{document}   What happens is that     But I would prefer "...In quasi definition 1.1.1.1". Do anyone have some suggestions of how solve this? and How to avoid the          \noindent  thing before the continuation of the text?   Additional information: if possible I would try to not use ntheorem. I am moving from Egypt to the Netherlands and I need to take my PC with me. I won't be taking the monitor, just the case, but I'm wondering what the best way would be.  Am considering taking it as carry-on because I'm allowed 8kg and at least then I can handle it myself. Has anyone done this before and can give me tips or warn me that this doesn't work? Would putting it in my normal suitcase as checked baggage be a better idea? How to merge two arrays in JavaScript and de-duplicate items Is the power set of the natural numbers countable? jQuery Validate Plugin - How to create a simple custom rule? TikZ: remove margin, padding, border around nodes containing images I want to create a simple figure where images are connected with arrows. Here is what I did:  \begin{tikzpicture} \node[](A) {\includegraphics[width=0.2\textwidth]{a}}; \node[right=1mm of A](B) {\includegraphics[width=0.2\textwidth]{b}}; \draw[-&gt;] (A) to (B); \end{tikzpicture}     But I want the arrow to start and end right at the images with no space between. How can I do that? While revising for exams, I came across a question where at the end of it, we had to determine whether the below series was convergent or divergent:  $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n}{n(2+(-1)^n)} $$  Unfortunately, other than knowing that as the series $ \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^n}{n} $ converges, this series will most likely converge as the $(2 + (-1)^n)$ terms are bounded, I can't see a way of using this to determine if it converges or not.  Here's a list of some of the other ideas I've tried, which don't seem to get me anywhere:   Generalising the series - By this, I mean replacing the $-1$ for $z$ and then try and use the ratio test to see whether $-1$ is inside or outside or on the boundary of the circle of convergence - however, when I did so, I believe that the ratio test is inconclusive for all values of $|z|$, which while disappointing, is an interesting feature of the series.  - While this is usually a nice tool to use for when dealing with awkward sums, I can't see any good choice of sequences $ (a_n) $ and $(b_n)$ to choose to use. Summing consecutive terms - By this, I mean evaluating the series by looking at the sum of    $$\sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{(-1)^{2k}}{2k(2+(-1)^{2k})} + \frac{(-1)^{2k-1}}{(2k-1)(2+(-1)^{2k-1})}$$  $$ \Rightarrow \sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{1}{2k} - \frac{1}{3(2k-1)}$$  $\quad$ but then as we are left with parts of the harmonic series this doesn't seem like a nice way to  $\quad$evaluate it.  Other than that, I'm completely out of ideas, so any new ones (or ways to make my old ones work) would be much appreciated! How can Obito use his Mangekyo so often? Using recordtypes of the same name across multiple SObject types I have one recordtype named 'India' in both Account and Contact Objects.My requirement is whenever i create a new account record of type 'India' a new contact record of type 'India' should be created automatically.  i tried with the following code:  trigger AccRecTypeTrigger on Account (before insert) {     List&lt;RecordType&gt; recType = [select id,name from RecordType where sobjectType = 'Account' and isActive = true];    Map&lt;String,Id&gt; m = new Map&lt;String,Id&gt;();    for(RecordType r : recType){      m.put(r.name,r.id);    }     List&lt;Contact&gt; conlst = new List&lt;Contact&gt;();    for(Account a : trigger.new){        a.recordTypeId = m.get('India');        Contact con = new Contact();        con.accountId = a.id;        con.recordTypeId = a.recordTypeId;        con.recordType.name = a.recordType.name;         conlst.add(con);       }    insert conlst; }   But i am getting following error when i try to save     Apex trigger AccRecTypeTrigger caused an unexpected exception, contact   your administrator: AccRecTypeTrigger: execution of BeforeInsert   caused by: System.NullPointerException: Attempt to de-reference a null   object: Trigger.AccRecTypeTrigger: line 14, column 1   Please help me how to achieve this...... Automate keystrokes in Windows 7 64-bit I need to automate the pressing of the  key then pressing 5 digits then press  in Windows 7 64-bit.
