Is the ability to unilaterally close/reopen duplicates for Gold Badge holders SO specific?

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages Capacitor on USB cable? I was messing around with a USB camera. I wanted to change the cable because is trimmed but as I was cutting it I saw a small thing (image below). As I was trying to cut the casing and see what it has inside I saw a spark. I tried to connect it with another cable but I don't know if I'm gonna damage the camera or the USB port.    What is it and can I connect the camera without it? Given I have Drupal 9 composer installation with composer-patches plugin and given a contrib module with a stable v8 release, but no v9 release (not even dev branch) and given that contrib module has a working v9 patch in the issue queue  is there any method to install that module + patch in composer? Even if I manually add both, the package and patch, to my composer.json, I still can't require or update this module with composer due conflicting versions. I really want to avoid duplicating /contrib code into my project's /custom codebase. My current workaround is:  forking that module to my own, private git repo applying patch there creating a new composer.json in my private git, and changing the package vendor to my custom_private_vendor adding my private git as VCS repo in the D9 project's composer.json and then composer require custom_private_vendor/contrib_module  This fulfills my goal of not duplicating the contrib module in my project's custom codebase, but every time I do this I feel the urge to wash my dirty hands. Is there something more elegant like composer require drupal/contrib_module --apply-patch-first or can I somehow target drupal.org's git with a specific patch included? I need a way to determine the type of an HTML element in JavaScript. It has the ID, but the element itself could be a &lt;div&gt;, a &lt;form&gt; field, a &lt;fieldset&gt;, etc. How can I achieve this? How to create a new object instance from a Type One may not always know the Type of an object at compile-time, but may need to create an instance of the Type.    How do you get a new object instance from a Type? Role of capacitors in amplifier What is the significance of a coupling capacitor in a common-emitter amplifier? What would happen if it is removed? What will be  the effect on AC amplifier gain on removing it? Since I'm confused with these two phrases, I did a search in Google Books hoping to find some examples. But then I found :     Two private spaces or replicas cannot contain the same object with two distinct references. For example, during a disconnected phase, the pump can be present in two different private spaces and still be designated with the same name. During a meeting, two replicas use a same name to access the pump object(local or distant).   This made me more confused. I don't really understand why "the same name" was used in one sentence while "a same name" was used in another. Are there any differences between them? Coefficient changes sign when adding a variable in logistic regression In my logistic regression the sign of coefficients of a variable (location distance of an amenity) changes based on other variables (with time -ve, with travel distance +ve) in the model. When the location distance is the only variable in the model, it has +ve sign.    Should the variable need to maintain the +ve sign no matter what other variables are added in the model? Does changing sign signify a multicollinearity issue? Some IVs are gaining significance while in a bivariate model, they didn't show significance and vice versa. Is it okay to add variables that don't have much significance (ex: travel distance has a significance of 0.33 individually, but 0.05 when added with other variables) but becomes significant in the model? thanks. Which annotation should I use: @IdClass or @EmbeddedId The JPA (Java Persistence API) specification has 2 different ways to specify entity composite keys: @IdClass and @EmbeddedId.   I'm using both annotations on my mapped entities, but it turns out to be a big mess to people who aren't very familiar with JPA.   I want to adopt only one way to specify composite keys. Which one is really the best? Why? Suppressing addition of blank page before figure when wrapping long JPEG image Is there a human home planet? Did all the humans in the Star Wars universe originate on a single planet some time in the distant past, or did they originate on different worlds and intermix into one species over millenia?  This is specifically about only humans, not humanoid aliens. I would prefer answers from the main canon or EU canon.

I see the usual recommendation when suggesting an edit is:     Avoid trivial, tiny one-letter edits unless absolutely necessary.   I can see the logic in that for most cases, but for example I just read a question with a title containing "Andriod" which would be trivial in one way but also affect the ability of users to locate the question using both the site and external search engines. Would it be frowned upon to suggest an edit for those cases? What should I consider when choosing continuous lighting vs. strobes for studio photography?

MacTeX - TeX Live Utility broken after 2015 update What commands are there for horizontal spacing? I know that \: in LaTeX produces a space when rendered.  Are there any alternatives, because my LaTeX renderer doesn't support \: (it renders it as text), and there is no help / FAQ that I can find. I'm on Ubuntu 16.04.1 at the moment, and system windows like the Files window, Terminal or System Software open behind the Unity launcher, which means they are partially hidden behind it. I can move them with Alt+F7, but I'd like a more permanent solution to this problem.
