How to interpret a quantum circuit as a matrix? I'm looking for a word that can describe a person who does nice things for other people (e.g holding the door open, carrying someone's things) but only for self gain; this person only does nice things to make themselves look good in the eyes of others, but doesn't actually care about the well-being of the people they're helping. Do you think that "was going to be" or "would be" could be used as past tense of will?     I thought this book was going to be your choice.        I thought this book would be your choice.   Do these two sentences basically mean the same thing or are they slightly different? Can I download the Winter Bash hats for use as profile picture? Can I download  and use them as my profile picture?  I actually like some of them, and want to keep them for future use. What is the "Install this third-party software" box in the installer and what third-party software is installed? Update:   Once upon a time there was a feature called . Its goal was to help our most active users find the questions they can answer. &quot;New nav&quot; never made it out of beta and that beta only ever made it to Stack Overflow users. Several months ago we gave new nav a sad, but overdue burial. As we promised, we've been working on a replacement for new nav, and now it's time for us to start rolling it out. We're calling it custom question lists and we are really excited about its potential to help all users get at the questions that are most interesting to them. While we hope what we've built hits the mark for many of you who have requested a feature like this (e.g., , , , , , ), we know how difficult it is to make something complex simple. So, we are rolling this out in beta to gather feedback from you and iterate on it. (Don't worry, we promise to actually release it this time.) When it's live later you'll be able to opt-in to the beta by turning on a new account preference. This will enable the feature for Stack Overflow, Meta Stack Overflow, and Meta Stack Exchange. It will be available for all network sites when the beta period is over. Schedule for future improvements This feature will roll out in four phases:  Phase I: Filter and sort controls to let you modify a question list view (Julyish) Phase II: Saved custom lists (In progress, ETA November 2018) Phase III: Notifications on custom lists (December 2018) Phase IV: Final fixes and official release (January 2019)  Sneak peak Phase I: Filter and sorts We'll add filter and sort controls to question lists. This does two things:  Clarifies the definition of built-in views - Naming is hard and short names can't always describe what a view is showing you. By exposing the filter and sort controls it is more obvious. Introduces the ability to create new custom views - This won't be super useful until we add the ability to save the views to the UI (phase II). Until then you can bookmark the URL and get back to your views.  Question list with new controls   Views drop down   Filter   Sort   Phase II: Saved custom question lists In this phase we will add the ability to save your custom questions lists. Create custom list In our current design, a dialog will be pre-populated based on the filters and sorts you're currently using. Give it a name, confirm your options, and click save.  Accessing your saved lists When you save your custom lists they will show up in the &quot;More&quot; drop down for question list views. Additionally, you can add them to the left navigation bar for easy access (see image below).  Phase III: Notifications For phase III we'll enable indicators for when new items are available in a custom question list. When you pin a question list to the left nav you can see a dot on any list with new items.  Feedback welcome As usual, we're interested in your constructive feedback. This is a work in progress and, as mentioned, will be rolled out in phases. You can provide feedback on the concepts now based on the information in this post and provide feedback based on the working elements as they are released. How coherent light is created for single slit experiment? Help me to get command or ansibile Regex to fetch below details How to compare a program's version in a shell script? Suppose I want to compare gcc version to see whether the system has the minimum version installed or not.  To check the gcc version, I executed the following  gcc --version | head -n1 | cut -d" " -f4   The output was  4.8.5   So, I wrote a simple if statement to check this version against some other value  if [ "$(gcc --version | head -n1 | cut -d" " -f4)" -lt 5.0.0 ]; then     echo "Less than 5.0.0" else     echo "Greater than 5.0.0" fi   But it throws an error:  [: integer expression expected: 4.8.5   I understood my mistake that I was using strings to compare and the -lt requires integer. So, is there any other way to compare the versions? I have a button created by my script. I wonder how I can display what the system console displays but inside blender's console. CoDEmanX did this by running a script inside it as shown , but I want to display what happens in the system console inside blender's console.  My .blend file can be found here: Calculate half life of esters I'm trying to calculate the level of testosterone released from different testosterone esters. Here are some graphs of testosterone levels after single injections of 250mg of each ester.  Testo U    Testo B   Each ester have a specific half life. e.g. testo e have an half life of 4.5 days. testo b 29.5 testo u 20.9  After an injection of an ester, there will be a specific amount in your body. say 250mg.  Those 250mg will follow a normal half life curve for that ester. And I know how to calculate that.  However, when the ester is reduced, the testosterone bound to it will be released.  So over time , more testo will be released from the ester, and the testosterone itself have some sort of half life I assume.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.3 with NVidia drivers (319) for my Quadro K2100M graphic card, and when I switch my main 3200x1800 laptop screen to mode 1920x1080 (using nvidia-settings), the display goes blurry...  I am using two screens:    My main screen is a LCD with max resolution 1920x1200. My laptop screen (original resolution 3200x1800) is sitting to the right of that.   The main problem is that, on Ubuntu, the font is far too small on my laptop screen. Because of that, I wanted to change the resolution of my laptop to 1920x1080.  Reading , I tried to  and here is the DPI configuration which I should have:   94x94 for my main LCD screen 1920x1200 235x236 for my 3200x1800 laptop screen   Is there a way to have dual DPI resolutions with an extended desktop?

As per the following example, and as in  In bash, where has the trailing newline char gone?, I want to know "why" it happens    x="$(echo -ne "a\nb\n")" ; echo -n "$x" | xxd -p  # Output is: 610a62  # The trailing newline from the 'echo' command #   has been "deleted" by Command Substitution   I assume there must be some very significant reason for a shell action, namely Command Substitution, to actually delete some data from the command output it is substituting... but I can't get my head around this one, as it seems to be the antithesis of what it is supposed to do.. ie. to pass the output of a command back into the script process... Holding back one character seems weird to me, but I suppose there is a sensible reason for it...  I'm keen to find out what that reason is...
