For an Indian citizen, will a UK Tier 2 short term ICT visa be sufficient to travel to the Republic of Ireland and fly back to UK?
Can I travel to Dublin, Republic of Ireland with UK Tier 2/Schengen visas with Indian Passport
Where does the curve $x^y = y^x$ intersect itself? This problem is quite easily solved by using logarithms and derivative and forming the function $f(x,y) = x^y - y^x$, however there are assertions that this problem can be solved without using either of the two. I can not see how one would proceed to solve this problem in the absence of logarithmic manipulation and differentiation. Can anyone shed some light on this? Is there some markup to post tags? I am wondering because I was editing my profile and I though it would be nice to put the languages I know and stuff like tags.  Is it possible to post a tag? If it's not, do you think it's possible to implement on the profile?  For example:  [c#]   Would generate    With tag formatting and link... Professionals: Would you choose GIMP over Photoshop and/or Inkscape over Illustrator? How often do ewoks eat sentients? In Return of the Jedi, the ewoks plan on eating Luke, Han and Chewie.     THREEPIO: I'm rather embarrassed, General Solo, but it appears you are to be the main course at a banquet in my honor.   At this point, the tribe had already met and befriended Leia, and had encountered the Imperials in the past, making it fairly likely that they knew humans were .  This raises the question of how often they ate sentients. Was it a one-off thing, to honor an extremely rare visit from a god, or was this fairly common? How to count occurrences of one field grouped by values of another? Why can't I paste § into a Minecraft command? Can a single PS Plus subscription be used on two different profiles on the same PS4? Both my girlfriend and I play on the PS4 at home, so there are 2 profiles on PS4. When we set our profile in PS4, we set the console as the primary console.  Now we want to buy PSN Plus subscription, and I want to know if the same subscription can be used in both profiles, or  only in one.   In case the same subscription can be used in both profiles, how can we set it up? Or is automatic? Prove that the minimum number of cycles is $m-n+1$ The question I have is:   Prove that the minimum number of cycles is $m-n+1$ in a connected graph. Where one cycle is a path that starts that begins and ends at the same vertex. Where $m$ is edges and $n$ is the vertices.   I have no idea where to start. A few hints would be appreciated. Please do not provide me with the answer. In both the movies and comics Cap gains his peak human strength via the supersoldier serum and a does of vita rays, resulting in the rapid development of his super buff body:     While the most obvious real world analogue would be the use of steroids, these would still require that the person taking them train extensively and significantly increase their protein intake in order to gain muscle mass. While there are frequent scenes of Steve training in both mediums I've yet to see any scenes of him eating a 12-egg omelette or downing protein shakes. Are there any in-world explanations that would account for the increased muscle mass? Extra-dimensional energy conversion? I've looked at the demo of Beeline reader and would like to test it out on a physical version of my books, which are done in LaTeX. I'm wondering if it would even be possible.   Beeline reader takes online test a puts a slight gradient on the letters for a single line of text. On the next line it reverses the direction of the gradient. The idea being that it helps tracking text and improves speed of reading.  Any hints or suggestions as to how to do this in LaTeX?  What follows is an example taken from Is it possible to match encrypted documents using user-defined search terms? Suppose I am storing a number of encrypted documents in a database. I would like to make it possible to identify the subset of documents whose contents match user-specified search terms without a) maintaining a plaintext index or b) decrypting documents on the fly. Is there any way to accomplish this securely?  By the same token, I'm wondering if a collection of encrypted documents can be sorted according to an encrypted attribute (e.g., document title) without first decrypting all attribute values. Why does the product topology allow proper subsets for only finitely many elements? How to change the name of document elements like "Figure", "Contents", "Bibliography", "Appendix", etc.? Could someone recommend a free and/or open source GIS application that can orthorectify map images? I'm basically searching for the opposite of putting all your eggs in one basket, where the risk is total failure because you did not hedge your efforts. I'm searching for a phrase that encompasses splitting your efforts and evokes the prospect of failing at both. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush also encompasses a sense of having focused your efforts, but only alludes to total failure. To satisfy the criteria, the phrase must cover:  attempting two things (or multiple iterations of one thing) both of which you might succeed at, if you addressed them serially but both of which you fail at because you address them in parallel  Here are the idioms/phrases that do not sufficiently cover the idea and why:  &quot;A servant to two masters&quot;  This has the sense of competing priorities, but not the sense of failing to achieve your goals.  &quot;Jack of all trades. Master of none.&quot;  The sense is insufficiently pejorative. Being a jack-of-all-trades can be seen as an advantage; I'm trying to focus on the lack of mastery.  &quot;The man who fancied himself a wit, and was half-right.&quot;  From Christopher Hitchens. Hilarious, but lacking the sense of split effort between two things.  &quot;Walking and chewing gum at the same time.&quot;  An idiom for multi-tasking, not for failing to multi-task. Edit Addressing a few suggestions and another one that occurred to me:  &quot;Hedging your bets&quot; or &quot;Betting against yourself&quot;  In this case, you cannot win both bets, but you will almost certainly win one. You limit your upside, but also limit your risk. I'm looking in particular for total, catastrophic failure due to split attention/effort.  &quot;Can't walk and chew gum at the same time&quot;  Failing to do two fairly simple things that most everyone can do, not failing at two hard things because you tried to do both.  &quot;Robbing Peter to pay Paul&quot;  In this case, Paul gets paid. If you were to rob Peter to pay Paul, and get robbed yourself before you could get the money to Paul, that'd be closer. :)  &quot;Spreading yourself too thin&quot;  An actual English idiom, but missing the implied sense of failure.  &quot;Too many irons in the fire&quot;  &quot;A lot of irons in the fire&quot; can be viewed positively, so this is missing the sense of a strategic misstep.  &quot;Between a rock and a hard place&quot;  The sense is of needing to act but having no good alternative.  &quot;Falling between two stools&quot;  My favorite answer so far because it does appear to be an actual English idiom (not a proverb). In that sense, it's great, but some of the usages are closer to a failure of  than a failure of effort. And falling between two stools implies that the attempted action was simply sitting down.  &quot;Chasing two rabbits and catching none.&quot;  This is the exact sense I was looking for, but it appears to be a cross-cultural proverb rather than idiomatic English like &quot;putting all your eggs in one basket&quot;. I'll be accepting it, and using it in my work! But if there are other ideas, please let me know. Newton's third law does not apply to the kinetic energy formula? Here is a classic problem:     A 60kg boy and a 40kg girl are sitting in front of each other on skateboards on a frictionless horizontal surface. The boy pushes the girl and the girl gains a velocity of 0.3m/s during the 0.5s the boys hand was in contact with her. What is the boy's resulting velocity?   Considering Newton's Third Law, the best way is to find the total force applied and rearrange the formula to find the boy's speed.  Newton's Law Method:  $F = m*a$  $a=\frac{0.3m/s}{0.5s}$  $F = 40kg * 0.6m/s^2$  $F = 24N$  Therefore the boy's speed will be:   $\frac{24N}{60kg} = a$  $a = 0.4m/s^2$  $v = 0.4m/s^2 * 0.5s$  $v = 0.2m/s$  Kinetic Energy Method:  $E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2$ the girl's kinetic energy  $E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*40kg*(0.3m/s)^2$  $E_{k}=1.8J$  Since every action has an equal and opposite reaction the boy should have the same amount of kinetic energy.  $E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}*60kg*(0.2m/s)^2$  $E_{k}=1.2J$  As you can see, using Newton's Third Law, the kinetic energy was not the same. So what's going on here? I thought that in this case they should both have the same amount of kinetic energy due to Newton's Law. I must be missing something since there is more energy going in one direction than the other after meeting. My book used the first method as the answer and, well, it feels wrong. Prove that subsequence converges to limsup Given a sequence of real numbers, $\{ x_n \}_{n=1}^{\infty}$, let $\alpha =$ limsup$x_n$ and $\beta = $ liminf$x_n$.   Prove that there exists a subsequence $\{ x_{n_k}\}$ that converges to $\alpha$ as $k \rightarrow \infty$.   Not sure how to start this without since I'm not given that the subsequence is bounded.. Determine if $.ajax error is a timeout I have an ASUS N550JK laptop (BIOS version 204) running Ubuntu 14.04 (3.13.0-43-generic kernel).  My issue is that the battery indicator ALWAYS shows that it's using battery power - even when plugged in and fully charged. So even though I have selected to show the battery status in the menu bar only when charging or in use (in power settings), it is ALWAYS displayed. When it reaches a full charge, the indicator icon will either show just the percentage (usually 99% or 100%), or sometimes a very big number for time (like 22:14) along with the percentage. If I go to the power settings menu, it always says "Using battery power", with something like 40 hours remaining. This is all while plugged in and fully charged.  Are there any fixes less drastic than trying to update BIOS, or is a BIOS update necessary to fix this? The latest BIOS version is 208 according to the ASUS website, but the (very brief) descriptions of the updates don't mention anything about battery issues. If at all possible I'd like to avoid updating BIOS because of the risk involved.  I've already tried letting the battery drain all the way and then charging to full, with no luck.  Thanks in advance! When trying to install CrossOver deb I get "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable libpng12-0" I have tried to install libpng12-0 but it still doesn't work.  Here:    How do I fix this?
