For abbreviations - both acronyms and initialisms - where the last word in the abbreviation is the noun, I'm accustomed to adding an 's' with no apostrophe (e.g. ATMs), as described in the answer to this question:   But how do you pluralize abbreviations where the noun is not the last word? E.g. 'Point of Presence' (POP)  I can see how 'POPs' could read 'Point of Presences', when the intention is 'Points of Presence.' Okay I have the following fitch proof almost figured out, from here I know I have to move forth in conlcuding but I don't know what I am missing  (2 premises)  S → (R ∨ P)  P → (¬R → Q)   my work below  new scope assume S   Rule: > elim  R ∨ P  New scope assume R  Q∨R     Rule: V intro  End scope – (new scope assume P)  ¬R → Q         Rule: > Elim  my confusion comes where I go from here  Q∨R            rule Taut Con ??  Goal:├ S → (Q ∨ R) How do I move to a new tab in gedit using the keyboard? If I have multiple tabs open, how do I move from one to another? (Ubuntu 11.10; gedit 3.2.1) Short story that takes place off planet, involving sun and rain I read this short story about 20 years ago, and I'd love to find the title and author. This is what I can recall about the story:   It takes place in a classroom full of kids (around 10 years old?) The planet always gets rain The kids lock the main character (a girl, I think) in the closet during the very rare occurrence of sunlight and she misses the entire event.    I know it's not much to go on, but I hope it rings a bell for someone! I've been wondering about this one for a while; I find it a little weird how abruptly it happens. Basically, why do we need just three uniforms for $Z_n$ to smooth out like it does? And why does the smoothing-out happen so relatively quickly?  $Z_2$:     $Z_3$:    (images shamelessly stolen from John D. Cook's blog: )  Why doesn't it take, say, four uniforms? Or five? Or...? This is one thing that keeps bugging me, and maybe there's a direct answer. Grammatically, which one is more correct of these two?  Does it make a difference?  I tried not to do that. I tried to not do that. How to open and convert CHM documents? I have some documents that are in a .chm format. I wondered if there is a file format that can be easier to navigate, supported and of equal file size in Ubuntu?  If there is, I would like to start converting all those books and probably using them with less hassle on all my Ubuntu PCs and my Android phone. Proving the two given vectors are orthogonal I am given the vectors $\mathbf{w}, \mathbf{v}, \mathbf{u}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $\mathbf{u} \neq 0$ and $\mathbf{w} = \mathbf{v} - \frac{\mathbf{u}\,\bullet\,\mathbf{v}}{\|\mathbf{u}\|^2}\bullet\mathbf{u}$. I am asked to show that the vector $\mathbf{w}$ is orthogonal to $\mathbf{u}$.     So far, I have written out the definition of orthogonal: two vectors are orthogonal if and only if their dot product is zero.   So what we need to prove is $\mathbf{w}\bullet\mathbf{u} = 0$ where $\mathbf{w}\bullet\mathbf{u}$ is defined as $\mathbf{w}^T\bullet\mathbf{u}$.   However, I have been stuck on this problem for about an hour and haven't made any significant progress from here. How do we go about proving that the vectors are orthogonal? I apologize for the subjective "best" keyword.  My friend and I have started creation of a 2D adventure game. It will be top-down in the style of pokemon or zelda (just the perspective). We have been discussing methods of creating a large world-map that the player can traverse without straining the memory capabilities of our machine.  Our first impulse was to create a large map and a circle around the player in which content will be loaded. We figured this won't hold for long and decided to partition the map into sections. First we had four large sections, but realized we could simply break it down into many tiny sections.  I played some Zelda from the SNES and saw that, during the shift of a map, the content could be loaded just then. What I mean is, instead of just checking a rectangular area for data to load, we simply section the map into many tiny chunks that load and de-load data as we move from map-portion to map-portion.  Today, he told me he wanted to create a simply 2D array map[WIDTH][HEIGHT] that contains data about every grid in the game and is a constant save-to-disk operation for data that we don't need.  I'm not sure about these ideas and thought that I might as it here. Any links, resources or tutorials on the subject would be greatly appreciated as well as direct answers to our question on how to do it efficiently. Elliptical orbits of planets As we know, the velocity of the planet changes as it orbits around the sun, both in its magnitude and direction. The centripetal acceleration causes the change in the direction of velocity but I want to know what is the tangential force that acts on the planet to change the velocity by its $magnitude$. The answer normally as to why the speed changes is: If  the  force  that  the  Sun  exerts  on  the  planet increases  (as  the  planet moves closer),  then  the acceleration   of  the  planet must  increase,  resulting  in a  higher  orbital  speed,  and vice  versa. But this force is not along the body but towards the sun. So such a force should only change its direction. I am given two charged particles of same charge at a distance of $r$. They initially apply force $F$.  Now an infinite dielectric (of dielectric constant $4$) of width $\frac{r}{2}$ is introduced between the particles. What will be the new force?   I find this problem confusing because I have only been told about forces when its either fully dielectric or fully vaccum given by Coulomb's law. How do we get forces when only partial space is dielectric? How to prove those "curious identities"? How to prove $$ \prod_{k=1}^{n-1} \sin\left(\frac{k\pi}{n}\right) = \frac{n}{2^{n-1}}$$ and $$ \prod_{k=1}^{n-1} \cos\left(\frac{k\pi}{n}\right) = \frac{\sin(\pi n/2)}{2^{n-1}}$$ Will my Chinese visa still be valid if I renew my passport? Will my Chinese visa still be valid if I renew my passport? If so how does that work?  I have heard that you can travel with your new passport and just show the old passport with the valid visa when entering China. Has anyone done that? Recently?   I have also been told that you have to get a new visa, which seems somewhat logical but frustrating, especially when my Chinese visa is only a few months old.  My Chinese visa was issued in late Nov 2014 and I heard the rules changed between the US and China. My visa says it's good for 10 years and my US passport expires in 5. How to edit Parameters for an Object after it is created? Does anyone know?  And a bigger question is what happens when you encounter this maximum? Is this the same number with other Windows OSs such as Vista, XP etc.?

Any help pointers? Making hats (and other accents) bold I've been typesetting some equations, and I've found that the default behavior accents like \hat, \bar, \tilde, etc. makes a rather small and easily-missed mark. Is there some way to make the accents stand out more? In particular, is there any way to make them appear in bold (without affecting the letter they are over)? Input impedance of Arduino Uno analog pins? I'm using the  on some small robotic arm motors, and reading in the analog voltage with an Arduino Uno.  I've had reasonably good results, but only after putting in an RC filter on the output.  However, in the application note on the datasheet, it says not to do that:  "the addition of an RC filter to the output of a sensor IC can result in undesirable device output attenuation — even for DC signals."  Then it gives a formula to calculate attenuation, but it depends on knowing the input impedance of whatever is reading the signal, so that's what I'm after here.
