Is the Stack Exchange engine that powers Stack Overflow available to download or install internally for an enterprise or company?  I think Stack Exchange's engine is very great and could be very cool to use for internal enterprise patterns and practices, like the engine of Wikipedia. Massive spam users and spam entries despite triple layer protection Simulating group_concat MySQL function in Microsoft SQL Server 2005? I'm trying to migrate a MySQL-based app over to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (not by choice, but that's life).  In the original app, we used almost entirely ANSI-SQL compliant statements, with one significant exception -- we used MySQL's group_concat function fairly frequently.  group_concat, by the way, does this: given a table of, say, employee names and projects...  SELECT empName, projID FROM project_members;   returns:  ANDY   |  A100 ANDY   |  B391 ANDY   |  X010 TOM    |  A100 TOM    |  A510   ... and here's what you get with group_concat:  SELECT      empName, group_concat(projID SEPARATOR ' / ')  FROM      project_members  GROUP BY      empName;   returns:  ANDY   |  A100 / B391 / X010 TOM    |  A100 / A510   So what I'd like to know is: Is it possible to write, say, a user-defined function in SQL Server which emulates the functionality of group_concat?   I have almost no experience using UDFs, stored procedures, or anything like that, just straight-up SQL, so please err on the side of too much explanation :) How did Montague Apparate into the Hogwarts bathroom? In year 5, Fred and George jam Montague into the Vanishing Cabinet. He's found weeks later in a toilet.      ‘He never managed to get all the words out,’ said Fred, ‘due to   the fact that we forced him head-first into that Vanishing Cabinet   on the first floor.’      […]      ‘They’ve found Montague, sir, he’s turned up jammed inside a toilet   on the fourth floor.’   ‘How did he get in there?’ demanded Snape.   ‘I don’t know, sir, he’s a bit confused.’   In year 6 Malfoy expands on that.      ‘I had to mend that broken Vanishing Cabinet that no one’s used for years. The one Montague got lost in last year.’      […]      ‘The other’s in Borgin and Burkes,’ said Malfoy, ‘and they make a kind of passage between them. Montague told me that when he was stuck in the Hogwarts one, he was trapped in limbo but sometimes he could hear what was going on at school, and sometimes what was going on in the shop, as if the Cabinet was travelling between them, but he couldn't make anyone hear him ... in the end he managed to Apparate out, even though he’d never passed his test. He nearly died doing it.   What happened here? Did he Apparate out into Hogwarts, Apparate into Borgin and Burkes and somehow wander back to Hogwarts and get stuck into a toilet? What areas of physics depend on the sum $1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6+ 7+\ldots= -1/12$? This youtube video from Numberphile,   shows how the value is derived. In the video, one interviewee claims that "this result is used in many areas of physics". In the video, only string theory is mentioned.  Which areas of physics use or depend on the sum $$1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6+ 7+\ldots= -1/12?$$ Why does ( exit 1 ) not exit the script? I have a script, that does not exit when I want it to.  An example script with the same error is:  #!/bin/bash  function bla() {     return 1 }  bla || ( echo '1' ; exit 1 )  echo '2'   I would assume to see the output:  :~$ ./test.sh 1 :~$   But I actually see:  :~$ ./test.sh 1 2 :~$   Does the () command chaining somehow create a scope? What is exit exiting out of, if not the script? How to make a bootable ISO image from a bootable DVD? How to set a letter to the margin of the page and position it vertically according to alphabetical order? "There is/are more than one". What's the difference? While adding to an Answer to  question, I needed to use the above phrase, and I suddenly realised I was unsure whether to write "is" or "are".   There is more than one way to skin a cat. If there are more than one species of cat, we will flay each species differently.   I don't think that second example above sounds quite right to me (disregarding the meaning - sorry!), but in my original Answer I felt "is" would have been even worse.  Is "are" always wrong here? If so, what exactly is the rationale? If not, is there a case where it's unquestionably preferred – and why is that?    Note that in both the problematic Answer and my example attempting to mimic the same context more briefly, the writer doesn't know how many there are. There may be one, more, or even none.  Getting even more specific, the writer might have an opinion on how many there might be, and wish to convey his leanings by choice of verb form if language allows this to be done succinctly. How to schedule a cron job to run a video fill every 5 minute? Trying to identify a short sci-fi story about a human that is "resurrected" by malignant aliens SF novel about one-way scientific expedition to inhabited planet, where telepathic aliens "talk" sort of ++like this++ and ~*~this~*~ I'm looking for a novel I read in the mid-to-late 1990s. It was a science fiction novel about an expedition of scientists sent at sub-light-speed (maybe in cryo-sleep?) to investigate a star system. Once there they set up a permanent scientific outpost.  There was at least one inhabited planet in the system, with a sentient species that communicated telepathically. The aliens' speech was represented with various symbols instead of quotation marks, with each named character having (I think) its own characteristic set of symbols, as in the title of the question. The scientists are eventually able to communicate with these (generally friendly) aliens.  The thing I remember most clearly is the end of the book. This was a one-way trip for the scientists, so gradually they all die off from various causes. When the next-to-last member of the crew dies of old age, the survivor is looking for an epigraph for her funeral, and (ironically, considering my current plight) can't find it in his search of the electronic library. He finally discovers it under "humor" because it's by Mark Twain: "Wherever she was, there was Eden." (This quote, of course, I found immediately in  and many other sources; it's from Eve's Diary.)  Other pieces of information I'm less sure of:   I don't think the planet was hospitable to humans; it may have been something like a gas giant, with the aliens "swimming" through the gas. I think the scientists stayed in an orbital space station, though they may have made expeditions to the planet in vehicles or protective suits. There may have been a "twin" planet, or a moon in an eccentric orbit, that caused periodic "flares" of some sort on the aliens' planet. There might have been some conflict between the crew early on, maybe because there was a non-scientific (military) commander, or perhaps just because people have conflict. I think the author was of sort of middling fame; respected and known by SF enthusiasts, but not a superstar like Asimov or Clarke. Almost certainly male, and probably with a professional science background. I think the science was fairly authentic, although the first-contact bit was obviously highly speculative. Cannot locate Ubuntu Software Center via Firefox to open APT links Let $F,G,H$ be groups such that $F\trianglelefteq G \trianglelefteq H$.  I am asked whether we necessarily have $F\trianglelefteq H$. I think the answer is no but I cannot find any counterexample with usual groups. Is there a simple case where this property is not true? Consider a hypothetical situation: In which a time traveler travels in a spaceplane at close to speed of light circling the earth and I get a live telecast of inside of that plane to my television. How time dilation will effect him and what will I observe sitting next to the tv seeing him live. Considering time runs slower at speed of light, will he be looking like a slow motion video? (Or let he also watching live streaming of us at earth, what it will look to him) P.S. I'm not sure if it even makes some sense but if it does kindly explain in logical details. Sorry for the the bad english, I'm not a native speaker. Is it possible to build a .dmg file (for distributing apps) from a non-Mac platform? And if yes, how? If I add a comment but navigate (by mistake) to another page, I lose my unfinished comment (ok, depends on browser etc). On the other hand, when formulating a question, and I click on a link by mistake, I'm asked if I really want to leave.  It would be nice to have this warning for comments as well.
