What good does zero-fill bit-shifting by 0 do? (a >>> 0)
What is the JavaScript >>> operator and how do you use it?
I've just returned from several unusual countries in Asia, and annoyingly despite being told I'd have no problem, I'm unable to find anyone in London to change back to pounds.  I've tried Travelex in Heathrow, a currency exchange place, and the post office.  The currencies include cash from: Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.  Most of the responses when shown the money is to the tone of "What the hell currency is this?" which doesn't fill me with confidence.  Any suggestions welcomed for places that may change this. Otherwise I may need to go back next year ;) How can I find the program I'm hiding in bash I understand that there is an upper limit. But why do you have to type at least 15 characters to post a comment? It is easy to work around it anyway (like adding dots or other useless things). Equipartition of energy Let $u$ solve the initial-value problem or the wave equation in one dimension: $$\begin{cases}u_{tt}-u_{xx}=0 &amp; \text{in } \mathbb{R} \times (0,\infty) \\ u = g, u_t = h &amp; \text{on } \mathbb{R} \times \{t=0\}. \end{cases}$$ Suppose $g,h$ have compact support. The kinetic energy is $k(t) := \frac 12 \int_{-\infty}^\infty u_t^2(x,t) \, dx$ and the potential energy is $p(t) := \frac 12 \int_{-\infty}^\infty u_x^2(x,t) \, dx$. Prove (a) $k(t)+p(t)$ is constant in $t$, (b) $k(t)=p(t)$ for all large enough times $t$.  This is Chapter 2, Exercise 24 of PDE Evans, 2nd edition. I am only doing part (a) right now; my work is shown below: Define $$e(t):=k(t)+p(t)=\int_{-\infty}^\infty u_t^2+u_x^2 \, dx.$$ Then $$e'(t)=\frac 12 \int_{-\infty}^\infty 2u_tu_{tt}+2u_{x}u_{xt} \, dx= \int_{-\infty}^\infty u_tu_{tt}+u_{x}u_{xt} \, dx.$$ Now, I want to get $e'(t)=0$ so that $e(t)$ is constant. How can I go about doing this? I do know that I can use $u_{tt}-u_{xx}=0$, if $t &gt; 0$. With $t&gt;0$ into mind, do I have to consider the $t=0$ case separately? Or can I treat both cases together as $t \ge 0$, since $g$ and $h$ have compact support? Parentheses vs. double commas vs. dashes to provide additional detail When do you use commas and when do you use parentheses to provide more detail about something?  For example:   The suspect, Tom Wilson, is now being charged with murder. The suspect (Tom Wilson) is now being charged with murder. John Smith, a member of the jury, agreed with the verdict. John Smith (a member of the jury) agreed with the verdict. The first example, the one about the fox, is the more valid one. The first example (the one about the fox) is the more valid one.   I realize that the first example, the one that uses parentheses, is probably more valid in this case (if anyone has a better example, please include it), but when, if ever, would you favor parentheses?  Update: I realize that dashes are sometimes used for similar situations, so I'd appreciate information on these as well.  For example:   The children—who are wearing shoes—will go on the trip The children, who are wearing shoes, will go on the trip The children (who are wearing shoes) will go on the trip How does a Pokémon gain CP when evolving? Can a virtualized machine have the CPU and RAM resources of multiple underlying physical machines? How does damage dealt increase as you level up I've recently taken over as GM in my group.  We are all new to RPGs except for our original GM, so they decided to run an adventure path so it would be easier to change GMs if they had to stop playing.  Along this path, we had one CR 4 encounter that took us an hour, almost killed our bloodrager and knocked our brawler unconscious. When we leveled up, our GM told us to increase the damage we did by "one level," so my 1d6 became 2d6 and my friend's 2d6 became 4d6.  I saw no problem with this as a player, but I was looking over the adventure path and later encounters that also have a CR of 4 could be ended in one turn by our bloodrager. This would make encounters really boring, and my goal is to avoid boredom.  My question is: As you level up, how does the damage you do increase? Does it go up like my GM said so that at level 3 my rapier does 3d6 and the bloodrager's earth breaker does 6d6, or does it go up by some other method?  I have read the PHB and I don't think that what the GM was saying is correct, but being a first-time player I wasn't sure if had just missed something, so I figured I should ask elsewhere. How to add days to current Date using JavaScript. Does JavaScript have a built in function like .Net's AddDay? How can I backup my programs/applications, so that after I reinstall a new one, I can still use the backup-ed ones? Is there a way, that I could backup all my programs, all apps, put them in a directory or something, so that I could install them quickly next time, without having to manually going over the app center, downloading them from terminal, etc?  Note that I might import them from a distro other than the one I exported them on. So, say I'm in Ubuntu, exported some stuff, and then installed BT and wanted to import them from there. In most of the mechanics textbooks , the  is stated without any justification or an experiment to confirm this law. Also after introducing this law forces are also decomposed without any justification. Please suggest any links or books related to this. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Error: 'else' without 'if' Modular arithmetic: division, fractions, solving linear congruences I want to ask a question about modular arithmetic. I know, that modular multiplicative inverse exists only if modulo and integer are relatively prime. I want to know, are there any ways of division in modular arithmetic, if modulo and integer aren't relatively prime? I tried to find info about that, but failed.

Broadcom Wireless Drivers unclaimed after installing update 16.04 How to concatenate two MP4 files using FFmpeg? TeXShop and Mac preview crashing when opening latex/beamer built pdfs After updating to Sierra 10.12.4 last week, TeXShop crashes:   when opening an existing .tex document that has a pdf associated to it immediately after compiling a new document, i.e. as soon as a pdf is created.   Furthermore, preview crashes opening almost any pdf that has been created with TeXShop. There is virtually nothing on the internet about it, and the only solution seems to be a complete reinstall of MacOSX (so as to reinstall the supposedly broken preview), which I'd like to avoid if at all possible.  Someone else has described a similar issue, but has not received any responses ().  I would be very grateful for some help, as I can neither produce work, nor look at any at the moment. Many thanks!
