Issues with the templates, when I use a wstring and a wchar_t
Why can templates only be implemented in the header file?
In unix/linux, any number of consecutive forwardslashes in a path is generally equivalent to a single forwardslash. eg.  $ cd /home/shum $ pwd /home/shum $ cd /home//shum $ pwd /home/shum $ cd /home///shum $ pwd /home/shum   Yet for some reason two forwardslashes at the beginning of an absolute path is treated specially. eg.  $ cd ////home $ pwd /home $ cd /// $ pwd / $ cd // $ pwd // $ cd home//shum $ pwd //home/shum   Any other number of consecutive forwardslashes anywhere else in a patch gets truncated, but two at the beginning will remain, even if you then navigate around the filesystem relative to it.  Why is this? Is there any difference between /... and //... ? For realism should I use the maximum number of Subsurf levels? I was wondering if I always need to use the maximum value of the options from the elements of "Add Modifier". For example, do I need to use the view 6 in Subdivision surface? I know it depends of what we are trying to achieve, but we all want the same. Make something look the most believable. So do you always use the maximum value Blender offers? I can describe "IMHO" as an acronym for "in my humble opinion."  How can I describe the reverse processes of translating the acronym into the actual phrase?  That is to say, if "IMHO" is the acronym, what do we call "in my humble opinion"?

What is the definition of how to count degrees of freedom? resulted, rather as by-product, the discussion on how to count degrees of freedom (DOF). I extend that question here:   Are necessary1 derivatives such as velocities counted as individual DOFs or together with the respective coordinate2? Should complex valued DOFs be counted twice as in "two real-valued DOFs" or once as in "one complex-valued DOF"? (I mean, when one does not want to specify this explicitly)   Please answer with some reference, unless it turns out this is actually a matter of taste rather than a strictly defined thing.    1) I mean those a value of which is required as an initial condition 2) I count fields in QFT as coordinates as well, while space-time-coordinates are parameters to me, if that matters. I know a field actually has $\infty$ (or rather, $2^\aleph$) DOFs itself, but let's say e.g. "one $\mathbb R^3$ continous DOF" in that case I'm looking for a time and memory efficient solution to calculate a  in C. I need to avoid dividing because I'm on a PIC 16 which has no dedicated division unit.  At the moment, I just store all values in a  and simply store and update the sum each time a new value arrives. This is really efficient, but unfortunately uses most of my available memory... Show that any prime ideal from such a ring is maximal. Let R be a commutative ring with an identity such that for all $r\in$ R, there exists some $n&gt;1$ such that $r^n = r$. Show that any prime ideal is  maximal. (Atiyah and MacDonald, Introduction to Commutative Algebra, Chapter 1, Exercise 7.)    Any hints? How do you make your own agar.io skins? I have noticed recently that people have their own skins. Not like the ones where you type in a specific nickname and it gives you a skin but where the people make their own. How do you do it?

Is it common to supervisors to email their students papers to review (which were apparently assigned to the supervisor, and not to the student). The field is Computer Science, but I  would also like to hear from the other fields. Can I fetch the value of a non-standard CSS property via Javascript? Do I need a firewall for my desktop? I don't have a  router, but I mostly use my desktop for online shopping and torrenting. So, do I have to enable the firewall? I hope not, because I'm really dumb and I don't think I will be able to configure the firewall. they were question banned; it turned out it (in part) it was because of deleted questions.   was deleted by the Community user.  I'm aware it will delete old posts that have a negative score, but for a minute or two, I was really puzzled as to why it was unilaterally deleted without some notation left.  Can we have the Community user leave a notation in a post's history as to why the post was deleted?    Something like the following would suffice:     Post deleted automatically due to having negative votes and no activity for three months Why do paintbrush loops get thicker at the top in Illustrator? When I do swirls in Illustrator with the paintbrush tool I often get this result (see image).    The loops doesn't get perfectly rounded, instead sometimes some of them gets thicker at the top of the loop... It tends to happen more if I paint small with low brush sizes. Why is this happening? I want to install Windows XP on my desktop computer (only XP), but my CD drive is not working.  I've only found installation tutorials on how to install it on the pen drive rather than from the pen drive.  How can I install Windows XP from a USB flash drive? Can you add a separate discussion site? Sometimes you just want to let out some steam, and troll about some technology or software. You are not looking for any answers, but for users with similar experiences and interesting stories. So why not create a separate discussion site (trolling.stackoverflow.com?), where you could ask questions like "why do you hate technology X" or "What are the stupidest bugs you encountered in X"?

The GADM database only has files for the 2300 Tehsils, whereas I'm looking for the about 5500 Census blocks (sub-districts) for any year possible.
