Prove inequality using Jensen's inequality
When do I use "I" instead of "me?" From some comments in the answers for  (now deleted, 10k only), there's confusion around the usage of I vs. me:  While the sentence, "the other attendees are myself and Steve," is agreed to be incorrect, there's confusion about whether the correct form is "the other attendees are me and Steve" or "the other attendees are Steve and I."  (I've always used the heuristic of removing the other people from the sentence, so I always thought "the other attendee is me" would be correct, instead of "the other attendee is I." Is this true, or am I using a flawed heuristic?) Has anyone successfully deleted the Windows Installer files successfully before? They are taking up 35.1% of my total hard drive space.  Which ones are needed and which ones can be purged?  In order to see this folder, I had to unhide system files by going to Windows Explorer > Organize (dropdown) > Folder and Search Options > view tab > uncheck ==> Hide protected operating system files (Recommended).  I used WinDirStat program to get these percentages. To see the image in full size, open it in a new tab.  I was told by someone that you should not delete these files, but then I found a utility--Windows Installer CleanUp Utility (very old version) that deleted these.  But it doesn't run on Windows 7.  If anyone has a later version that they found works, please let me know the path. $|p(z)| \leq M$ for $|z| \leq 1$ Show that $|p(z)| \leq M|z|^n$ for $|z| \geq 1$ Evaluating the integral $\mathop{\lim}\limits_{n \to \infty} \int_{-1}^{1} f(t)\cos^{2}(nt) \ dt $ Given that $f\colon [-1,1] \to \mathbb{R}$ is a continuous function such that $ \int_{-1}^{1} f(t) \ dt =1$, how do I evaluate the limit of this integral: $$\lim_{n \to \infty} \int_{-1}^{1} f(t) \cos^{2}{nt} \,dt$$   What I did was to write $\cos^{2}{nt} = \frac{1+\cos{2nt}}{2}$ and substitute it in the integral so that I can make use of the given hypothesis of $\int_{-1}^{1} f(t) \ dt =1$. So the integral becomes,   \begin{align*} \int_{-1}^{1} f(t)\cos^{2}{nt} \ dt = \int_{-1}^{1} f(t) \biggl[\frac{1+\cos{2nt}}{2}\biggr] \ dt  &amp;  \\  \hspace{3cm} = \frac{1}{2}\int_{-1}^{1}f(t) \ dt + \int_{-1}^{1} \frac{f(t)\cos{2nt}}{2} \ dt \end{align*}  But I don't really know how I can evaluate the second integral and also I can't realize as to why that integral condition on $f$ has been assumed. Moreover without assuming that condition on $f$ is it possible to evaluate this integral? If yes, then what would the answer be? How handicapped am I in graduate admissions if I graduated from a lower tier university? Due to a combination of factors, I ended up going for my undergraduate studies to a relatively unknown university that was close to me geographically.  Let's say that I have a relatively standard background for someone trying to apply to top tier schools for graduate studies (some research experience, some low to medium quality publications, very strong grades, good recommendation letters). Then how much does the alma mater have an impact for someone like me? I obviously know that it is still possible to be accepted, but how much of a disadvantage am I looking at exactly? RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags Why is quadratic integer ring defined in that way? Quadratic integer ring $\mathcal{O}$ is defined by \begin{equation}    \mathcal{O}=\begin{cases}       \mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{D}] &amp; \text{if}\ D=2,3\ \pmod 4\\       \mathbb{Z}\left[\frac{1+\sqrt{D}}{2}\right]\  &amp; \text{if}\ D=1\pmod 4    \end{cases} \end{equation} where $D$ is square-free.   I understand $\mathbb{Z}\left[\frac{1+\sqrt{D}}{2}\right]$ is not closed under multiplication if $D=2,3\pmod 4$. But still, isn't it more natural to define $\mathcal{O}=\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{D}]$ for all square-free $D$? (in that case, it really seems like 'quadratic integer') I wonder what is the motivation of this definition. I was able to install Ubuntu 12.04 using the alternative version of the image, (64 bit) but when I start the system it tells me the GPU  locked up, and instead presents a text only screen.  I understand that this site is not for bug reports, but at the same time, I know that there are some versions of the installer than have to be compatible with my graphics card (Nvidia GTS 360M).  I assumed that the mere fact that the alternative installer ran was an indication that I could get some sort of graphical interface running after the install.  Is there some way of getting some type of graphical interface running on my machine? Even better would be is there a way to get the rest of the system running as normal (i.e. GPU up and running)?  If an internet connection is required to download driver support or something similar, directions for how to configure a wireless connection with WPA2-Personal protection from the text-only interface (bash).  Any help would be appreciated.  Note: I was able to find  which tells me that the card is supported.  Note 2: In the install software stage of the install, I was unable to install anything (no internet connection)  Update: The exact error message is [8.591394] [drm] 0000:01:00.0: GPU Lockup - switching to software fbcon  Update 2: If I try to install with the regular version of Ubuntu, the screen goes staticy. This also happens if I install with Wubi (distasteful I know) and then try to use Ubuntu.  Update 3: I've tried xforcevesa, nomodeset and xforcevesa nomodeset as my wubi boot options.  Update 4: Thanks to jokerdino, I can now connect to the internet, so internet tools would now be a possibility. Temporarily suspend bash_history on a given shell? Is there a way to temporarily suspend history tracking in bash, so as to enter a sort of "incognito" mode? I'm entering stuff into my terminal that I don't want recorded, sensitive financial info. Georeferencing scanned map using ArcMap? Which of the following is a correct sentence:   Does anyone know where's Linda?  Does anyone know where Linda is?    Does anyone know why and how to use above usage if #2 is correct. Also please let me know this kind of specific structures. In non-relativistic QM, the $\Delta E$ in the time-energy uncertainty principle is the limiting standard deviation of the set of energy measurements of $n$ identically prepared systems as $n$ goes to infinity. What does the $\Delta t$ mean, since $t$ is not even an observable? Windows 7, file properties, date modified, how do you show seconds? Anyone know a way to immediately show the seconds of a file's date modified property in the GUI? So if you create a file, any file in any directory, right-click and choose Properties, the date modified (if it's recent) will say something like "dd/mm/yyy hh:mm, one minute ago" - reminder this is in Windows 7. Windows XP did it normally. Then they changed something.  If you wait a while, eventually you'll see the seconds, I'm not sure how long a while is, but this is incredibly annoying if you want to troubleshoot something that relies on the seconds of timestamps... is there a setting? registry key I can change perhaps?  I'm literally using Chrome, pasting in the path of the directory to be able to see the seconds quickly (as a workaround) but would be nice to be able to use Win7. I built a model of multiple linear regression to predict the revenues at the box office of a movie: the variable $Y$ is revenue while the variables $X$ are two: Activity (number of tweets per day) and sentiment (connotation of these tweets).  The problem is that the intercept is not significant. I thought of a possible explanation: the intercept in practice is the value of the variable $Y$ when the variables $X$ assume values of 0; but because of the very strong development of social networks, it is virtually impossible not to have even a tweet (and then a wave of activity) about a movie that just came out, I thought that the significance or not the intercept could be neglected because the assumed value has no meaning in reality (a tweet of 0 would never be satisfied, given the market today). In this way, I consider the intercept a mere constant for the calculation of the line, without worrying about its significance (because in some cases would take negative values, which is impossible for revenues).  The interpretation may be correct? What makes a DSLR better than a Point & Shoot? Why should I put up with the inconvenience of lugging around a DSLR?  They look cool, but is there more substance to it? Is it possible to assign numbers generated in an Error-Message? consider positive numbers $a_1,a_2,a_3,\ldots,a_n$ and $b_1,b_2,\ldots,b_n$. does the following in-equality holds and if it does then how to prove it  $\left[(a_1+b_1)(a_2+b_2)\cdots(a_n+b_n)\right]^{1/n}\ge \left(a_1a_2\cdots a_n\right)^{1/n}+\left(b_1b_2\cdots b_n\right)^{1/n}$ Why is $\pi$ irrational? I've a few questions in mind:   Why is $\pi$ irrational? If it is, then how can 2 rational quantities (circumference, diameter) can produce irrational number? How are we able to determine digits of $\pi$ accurately? I can't read beta sites' chat logos! Here, you try:  If it weren't for the text shadow, it might as well be entirely invisible...  The cause is a CSS rule lurking in the transcripts for beta sites only:  #transcript-logo {   background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #273A5D; }   The problem is the #273A5D - a bluish colour not dissimilar to that used for the site name in the beta theme. Disabling that rule yields the much more manageable  I'll admit it is a little hard to read the "beta" in that shot. But if you had to choose which part was readable, wouldn't you choose the bit that tells you the name of the site?  Edit: It happens when actually in a chat room too! In the header of my document I set the maximal author names to 2:  \usepackage[style=authoryear-icomp, maxbibnames=9, maxcitenames=2, backend=biber]{biblatex}   Now, when I cite texts with two authors, LaTeX gives me the following:     (Author_A/ Author_B 2012: 232)   When I have three authors or more, LaTeX makes it:     (Author_A/ Author_B et al. 2012: 232)   But I want LaTeX to just name the first author if there are more than two authors ... like this:     (Author_A et al. 2012: 232)   Any tips on how to achieve this ?
