Same package from 2 different PPA in sources.list.d; how to force the install from one specific PPA?
How do I cherry pick packages from a PPA?
Saving Mathematica kernel state? Rewriting a custom-post-type permalink with taxonomy term? Dealing with "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space" error Where can I get a device with 'Ubuntu for phones' pre-installed? When I try to move, rename, or delete a file named ␀in Finder, I get this error message:     The operation can't be completed, because an unexpected error occured (error code -50).   With mv, rm or find -delete in Terminal   rm: /Library/␀: Invalid argument  mv: rename /Library/␀ to /tmp/␀: Invalid argument  find: -delete: unlink(/Library/␀): Invalid argument   Can I move or delete this file in Mac OS X or do I have to use another operating system?  I even tried creating a file with this name in /tmp and it has not gone away since 8 reboots. Double-column listing package Not too well up on LaTeX, but I want to use the listings package for listings spanning a two-column format.  Unfortunately, asterisks cannot save me (like for figures/tables); this doesn't work:  \begin{lstlisting*} ... \end{lstlisting*}   I've Googled about, but got no satisfactory answer, and getting a bit desperate. Should be simple... hope I'm not missing something stupid. Perhaps it's possible to embed this into a separate spanning float?  Help?  (P.S., I've posted this on the main stackoverflow site as well...  if this is considered a duplicate, please comment and I'll remove the other. Getting a bit desperate fighting a deadline.) get value part of specific word in AIX want to search string and need part of string  file.txt:  CREATE MULTISET TABLE $$ENV$$_TEMP_ESM.EMPASGMTAMPTMPRTRSE, NO FALLBACK ,      NO BEFORE JOURNAL,      NO AFTER JOURNAL,      CHECKSUM = DEFAULT,      DEFAULT MERGEBLOCKADSRATIO   while using below sed command getting extra value  Output:   bash-4.3$ sed -n 's/.*$$ENV$$_//p' file.txt  **TEMP_ESM.EMPASGMTAMPTMPRTRSE** ,NO FALLBACK ,   I need only TEMP_ESM.EMPASGMTAMPTMPRTRSE Why there is "the" before some names but not others Is there a rule beyond the common "no the with proper nouns and names" for the following problem?     I saw the Empire State Building.      We went to the White House.      We saw the Golden Gate Bridge.   but     I went to Death Valley National Park.      I crossed Brooklyn Bridge. JQuery to load Javascript file dynamically I am preparing a paper in the field of Computer Science.  In order to report test results, we usually run a number of tests and report the average of those tests.  For each test, we generate random data.  Because of the randomness, at some points, the results may come out not as expected.  For instance, a graph may be like:   Usually, one should explain why on points 8, 11 and 12 there is a decrease on the plot. Probably, it is because of that randomness.  Not hand-crafting all the graph, but just manipulating a few points makes the graph acceptable:   Since three weeks or so, I work my ass off and try to figure out why my resulting graph looks like the first one. Sometimes I feel like yielding to temptation and just modify the raw data before I go crazy.  I believe, at this point the title became misleading, so let me make it clear:  I am not seeking an advice on data manipulation. I will not manipulate my data. However, I ask to myself "how the hell this can be detected?"  And now, I don't only ask to myself, but to whole community. How is this detected? For editors, referees out there, have you ever detected something like this? Does Quicksilver's walkman speed up with him? Why do my lamps require an insane "strength" value of 1 million? recently, I was using mesh planes to emit some light, and they had a strength of 8.0.. this worked well now, I want to swap these out for area lamps (to improve performance) i've positioned these area lamps in the place of my emitter polygons i've scaled them such they have 1.0 transform scale, and in the lamp settings, I set the size to 1m across (to size-match the previous emitters) the problem is, the lamps require a crazy "strength" of at least 1 000 000 (one million!) to produce any reasonable amount of light... this seems bonkers! point lamps, area lamps, and the others, are all effected my scene is scaled using the Centimeters preset.. the foreground is only a meter a way, and the more distant background is more like 5 meters back i've paid special attention to the sizing and scaling of this scene, I can't figure out why the mesh emitters are working with a sane Strength of 8, and the lamps require something out of this world? something must not be right...     Edit: Remastered scene corrects scales, problem persists       i've remastered the scene so that all of the objects have a proper scale factor of 1.0 this should correct any sizing discrepancy/confusion my scene must be in centimeters preset, all my other work is in centimeters the area lamp size is now definitely 1m, as highlighted in the above screenshot (and it is not affected by the 1.0 transform scaling factor, also highlighted (I also verified the delta scale is also 1.0)) despite correcting the scaling of my scene, strength 1 000 000 is still required is blender simply not accounting for my scene's Unit Scale setting? If I add a new case class, does that mean I need to search through all of the pattern matching code and find out where the new class needs to be handled?  I've been learning the language recently, and as I read about some of the arguments for and against pattern matching, I've been confused about where it should be used.  See the following:  Pro:  and    Con:   The comments are pretty good in each case, too.  So is pattern matching something to be excited about or something I should avoid using?  Actually, I imagine the answer is "it depends on when you use it," but what are some positive use cases for it and what are some negative ones? How can I tell Google Analytics to not use cookies for my sub domain? I have my web site at example.com, and i have also setup a sub domain for serving static content at static.example.com. On my web pages I'm using Google Analytics, so it will attach its cookies to all page request, even on static.example.com.     I went into the GA settings and added a filter to exclude static.example.com, but I still see cookies (with the __utma.. name) on all web requests to my static domain.  How can i prohibit GA to use cookies on my sub domain? Creating a link using an 18 character ID I have an 18 character SFDC ID. I was under the impression that I should be able to create a link to that record using the following pattern: https://&lt;org server&gt;.salesforce.com/&lt;id&gt;  For example: https://na12.salesforce.com/00TU000000Nf5NP  That link works fine for me. However, when I try to link to the same object using the 18 character, case insensitive ID (ex. https://na12.salesforce.com/00tu000000nf5npmaz), I get the following error:     Insufficient Privileges      You do not have the level of access necessary to perform the operation   you requested. Please contact the owner of the record or your   administrator if access is necessary.   What exactly is the problem? If all I have is the 18 character ID, how can I create a link back to the correct SalesForce record? Computing irreducible components of algebraic set Representation of electromagnetic wave? Pure virtual destructor in C++ Is it wrong to write:  class A { public:     virtual ~A() = 0; };   for an abstract base class?  At least that compiles in MSVC... Will it crash at run time? I had Ubuntu 12.04 Beta installed on my computer. When 12.04 was finally released, I made a bootable USB Flash Drive using Startup Disk Creator.  Then I decided to check if this drive works properly and to reinstall the system on my desktop. I must add, my desktop behaves a bit strange when it comes to bootable USB's, it recognizes them as HDD.  In BIOS I changed priority of boot so USB Flash Drive (recognized as HDD) was first. Successfully booted, I installed Ubuntu. Everything worked fine, but...  Now I cannot boot from my real HDD. Every time I want to boot, I put the USB Flash Drive into my computer, boot, safely remove it and everything works.  What do I need to do to repair boot? Why does sudo change the PATH?
