How do I interpret the completeness in Statistics in practice?
Meaning of completeness of a statistic?
Similar to this question posted in August 2014:       Has the fact that  (as  in The Fires of Pompeii, and  in Torchwood’s Children of Earth season) yet been addressed/explained either in, or out of universe? How big an RSA key is considered secure today? I think 1024 bit RSA keys were considered secure ~5 years ago, but I assume that's not true anymore. Can 2048 or 4096 keys still be relied upon, or have we gained too much computing power in the meanwhile?  Edit: Lets assume an appropriate padding strategy. Also, I'm asking both about security of signatures and security of data encryption. Solve the recurrence relation:$ T(n) = \sqrt{n} T \left(\sqrt n \right) + n$ $$T(n) = \sqrt{n} T \left(\sqrt n \right) + n$$  Master method does not apply here. Recursion tree goes a long way. Iteration method would be preferable.  The answer is $Θ (n \log \log n)$.  Can anyone arrive at the solution. cron job schedule Smooth option sometimes produces incorrect arrow tips in PGFplots How to replace text between quotation marks with something from another file? I have the following kind of text: $OU = 'or'; $DINHEIRO_CAIXA = 'Cash balance'; $PAGINA = 'Page'; $DE = 'from'; $ENVIAR = 'Send'; $PRINCIPAL = 'Main';  I've already got all the text within the single quotation marks using cat arquivo | grep -oP &quot;'[^']+'&quot; | tr -d &quot;'&quot; This extracted text was then translated to Portuguese, but now I don't know how to replace the original text between single quotation marks with the translated text, I was looking for something like $OU = 'ou'; $DINHEIRO_CAIXA = 'Dinheiro em caixa'; $PAGINA = 'Pagina'; $DE = 'de'; $ENVIAR = 'enviar'; $PRINCIPAL = 'Principal';  I've tried using grep -F to replace the file itself, but it failed miserably because the pattern didn't match since I don't have the quotation marks on the new file, is there a way to do this? How do I set up a Cron job? I can reproduce that every time now, I go to a site, open an article, then to the next site, open another article. The Feed page pops up for a second, the article page lays over this with some some transparent areas (see picture). The same app-version is ok on a Smartphone with Android 4.4.2. I also sent in some bug reports.    Edit  1.0.71 isn't the solution yet. I go to Meta SE, then to an article. When I want back to Meta SE again, it crashes. Much earlier than before. I already sent in a bug report for this.  Another Edit  I can describe it better now. From the questions-page of a site I go to a post. When I use the back button, everything is ok, I can go to the next site. When I try to go to the next site directly from the post, it crashes. This only happens on the Nexus 10 with Android 5.1.1, App version 1.0.71. Hope this helps.  Edit3  This is fixed in 1.0.73 now. Thanks again. Why did Douglas Adams pick 42 as the ultimate answer? Star Trek often refers to 47 and Star Trek made a sport out of finding real or imagined references to 47. Why did Douglas Adams pick 42 as the ultimate answer in the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy? Does anyone have a Terminal command-line recipe for making a new bootable USB flash drive for one of the new MacBook Air's?  Is there a way to dd copy the USB boot device that comes in the box and make the new copy bootable?  I'd like to make a new backup copy of the USB rescue device for my MBA, preferably on a much larger flash drive with room for a backup of some of my working directories.  Added:  And is it possible to make, not just a rescue drive, but a bootable USB drive that will boot a fully updated version of the OS (say 10.6.8 or later)?  If so how on a MacBook Air 11, and how big a USB stick will this require? Origins of possessive pronouns Update 02/02/2019 I appreciate all the responses and help but unfortunately i must have not seen the emails stating there were responses! I am now looking into a NEST thermostat and was curious if they too, use the same connections. Lastly, looking for a quick recommendation on which WiFi Compatible therms are preferred by the memebers that respond! Thanks again your knowledge is highly appreciated! Bob  I Purchased the Honeywell WiFi Prog Thermostat to replace my Round Digital Honeywell Thermostat. I have separate Heating and Cooling (Heating is a Weil McLain Boiler for Hot water baseboard and Hot water(no tank) and Cooling is a separate unit that was added later.)  Wires:  RC Cool R Heat W Heat Y Cool G Cool   3 wires from AC unit and 2 from Heater.  If I were to go the separate transformer route to power the thermostat, where would I land the 2 wires?  C and ??? How can I use commercial at sign in Objective-C macro? I am unable to find the bias of the sample variance estimator in this problem. Unfortunately I keep coming up with   Question: Suppose that the true linear model is   $y = X_1\beta_1 + X_2\beta_2 + e$,   where $e \sim MVN(0,\sigma^2 I)$, $X_1: N \times p_1, \beta_1: p_1 \times 1, X_2: N \times p_2, \beta_2: p_2 \times 1$. But we wrongly fit the model  $y = X_1\beta_1+e$ and calculate the estimators of $\beta_1$ and $\sigma^2$ as:  $\hat{\beta}_1 = (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'y$,  $s^2 = \large \frac{y'[I-X_1(X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1']y}{N-p_1}$.  (a) Show that, in general, $\hat{\beta}_1$ is a biased estimator with  Bias$(\hat{\beta}_1) = (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'X_2\hat{\beta}_2$  Under what condition on $X_1$ and $X_2$ is $\hat{\beta}_1$ unbiased?  (b) Show that, in general, $s^2$ is a biased estimator with   Bias$(s^2) = \frac{1}{N-p_1}\beta_2'X_2'[I-X_1(X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1']X_2\beta_2$  Is the bias positive or negative? Under what condition on $\beta_2$ is $s^2$ unbiased?  Attempt:  For part (a):  Bias$(\hat{\beta}_1) = E((X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'y - \beta_1)$  $\hspace{15mm}= (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'E(y) - \beta_1$  $\hspace{15mm}= (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'(X_1\beta_1 + X_2\beta_2) - \beta_1$  $\hspace{15mm}= (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'X_1\beta_1 + (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'X_2\beta_2) - \beta_1$  $\hspace{15mm}= I\beta_1 + (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'X_2\beta_2 - \beta_1$  $\hspace{15mm}= \beta_1 + (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'X_2\beta_2 - \beta_1$  $\hspace{15mm}= (X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1'X_2\beta_2$  If $X_1$ and $X_2$ are orthogonal, then $\hat{\beta}_1$ is unbiased.  For part (b), I am unable to figure out how to derive:  Bias$(s^2) = \frac{1}{N-p_1}\beta_2'X_2'[I-X_1(X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1']X_2\beta_2$  I can get   $\frac{1}{N-p_1}\beta_1'X_1'+\beta_2'X_2'[I-X_1(X_1'X_1)^{-1}X_1']X_1\beta_1+X_2\beta_2$  after taking the expectation of y on both sides.   Any help would be much appreciated. Finding integer solutions for $6x+15y+20z=1$ Problem: Find integers $x$, $y$, and $z$ that satisfy the equation $6x+15y+20z=1$.  I noticed that $\gcd(6,15)=3$, $\gcd(15,20)=5$, and that $\gcd(6,20)=2$. And of course $\gcd(6,15,2)=1$.   Of course I know to set one of the variables (x, y, or z) to be zero. But I want to know how to get the more trivial answers. But where do I go from here to find the solutions? I posted a question and a couple of respondents asked for the source code. I could only post portions of the code.  If attachments were allowed I could have uploaded a .zip file with the whole application.  Will this be a feature in SO?

She doesn't feel the buzz, but she can hear it if I touch her ear.  So I'm guessing it's a faulty laptop, and she's conducting an electrical current.  But why would she not feel anything, and what would it be that she would be hearing when I touch her ear?    More info:  The effect is only intermitent - it's pretty reliable in a single session on the laptop, but some sessions it won't happen and others it will.  I had the same sensation with a desk lamp that I had several years ago, with no moving parts (as far as I could tell)  The effect only occurs when I move my finger - if I'm stationary, I don't notice anything.   I was playing with my son, and noticed the same buzz.  First I thought he was touching the laptop.  Then I realised he had skin-to-skin contact with my wife who was using the laptop.
