Unable to append a string to StringBuilder array element
What is a NullPointerException, and how do I fix it?
Programs never open in foreground How can I make programs open in the foreground? Nautilus will open in the background, Remmina (the remote desktop program) also opens in the background. I have to click on the icon in the Launcher for it to come to the foreground. I would think any program that is invoked by any means would come to front, as it opens. It seems if one program invokes another, it will be in the background. If I click on any icons in the Launcher though, it will actually open in the foreground. Test for convergence  $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^n}$$  I'm at a loss on what to do, is this a geometric series $\frac{1^n}{n^n}$? Note: This is not the same as , which is about the moderator tool. I am talking about the flag history page that is accessible through the user profile at .  I tend to have a pretty good hit rate for flags, well above 90% helpful on several sites. I also semi-regularly review the flag history page, both to see the status of any outstanding flags as well as see how flags I raised have been handled. Particularly, whenever a flag of mine is declined, I look over the post I raised the flag against with this new information in mind, to try to determine if I should change my flagging behavior in some way to better match the specific site's scope.  However, comment flags are difficult in this regard. Most often, there is only a binary status: helpful or declined. Helpful comment flags nearly always lead to the comment being deleted, so that obviously could present a bit of a problem, but that's not really relevant because a helpful flag means you should just keep doing what you've been doing. Declined comment flags, on the other hand, usually mean the comment is kept. It's the declined comment flags that I want to learn more about. But there's no way to!  All the flag says is which post it was on, how I flagged a comment, that I was the one to raise the flag (which frankly is rather useless information when you are already looking at your own flags summary), when the flag was raised and whether it's pending, helpful or declined. In a very few cases the moderator handling the flag may leave a helpful return comment.  This can get even more confusing if I raise multiple flags in quick succession against comments on the same question including any answers to it, because they basically all get bundled together.  Even in the case of a declined flag where the comment remains, there is no way to find your way back to the specific comment you flagged! Thus it is very difficult to recognize the error of your ways. Because comment flags (with few exceptions) are handled by diamond moderators only, the lack of feedback about which comment's flag was declined means it's easy to keep wasting the moderators' time without even intending to do so.  Hence my feature request: add a link to the specific comment that the specific flag was raised against, ideally only if that comment remains. Is it only red, green and blue that can make up any color through additive mixture? I'm reading about color vision and have some trouble understanding the motivation for why the  was suggested in the first place. The book I'm reading ("Psychgology: The science of mind and behavior") states:     At the beginning of the nineteenth century it was discovered that any colour in the visible spectrum could be produced by some combination of the wavelenghts that corresponds to the colours blue, green and red in what is known as additive color mixture.   From the explanation in the book, it seems like this somehow should be a reason for also supposing that the human retina was composed of cones sensitive to the colors green, red and blue respectively. I guess this would be a valid argument if it was only red, green and blue that, through additive mixture, could make up any color.  Is it only red, green and blue that, through additive mixture, can make up any color? I've setup a HTTPS and FTP site in IIS but how can I add users to use the FTP site?  Does they necessarily need an account with password in the computer to be able to use it? xml serializing of saved game data What is the spell save DC and spellcasting modifier for a Rogue with Magic Initiate? As a rogue I'm planning to take Magic Initiate with warlock class. The Magic Initiate feat says:     [...] Your spellcasting ability for these spells depends on the class you   chose: Charisma for warlock [...]    cantrip 1: Booming blade or Green flame blade cantrip 2: Minor illusion 1st-level spell: Hex    My stats bonuses are: STR : -3 | DEX +6 | INT 0 | WIS +1 | CHA +4 | prof : 4  Questions:   Green flame blade :      [...] The second creature takes fire damage equal to your spellcasting   modifier. [...]   What is my spellcasting modifier? 0 from INT as rogue or +4 from CHA as warlock?   Minor illusion :      [...] If a creature uses its action to examine the sound or image, the   creature can determine that it is an illusion with a successful   Intelligence (Investigation) check against your spell save DC. [...]   What is my spell save DC? 12 (8 + 0 from INT + 4 from prof) or 16 (8 + 4 from CHA + 4 from prof)? Assigning strings to arrays of characters I am a little surprised by the following.  Example 1:  char s[100] = "abcd"; // declare and initialize - WORKS   Example 2:  char s[100]; // declare s = "hello"; // initalize - DOESN'T WORK ('lvalue required' error)   I'm wondering why the second approach doesn't work. It seems natural that it should (it works with other data types)? Could someone explain me the logic behind this? Outlook: scheduling recurring out-of-office? In Outlook, is there a way (or an add-on that can do it) to schedule a recurring out-of-office message?  I work 4 10's, so I'm out of the office every Monday, and it's a bit of a pain to have to reset my out-of-office message every single week. In Harry Potter and the philosophers stone Harry was "receiving" his letters in a way that was so labour intensive. First, one was sent in the mail, and the others where then sent, either shoved into the letterbox or through the door cracks. It then it got, "out of hand," as twenty four letters found their way inside the house. The letter sender (Minerva, I do believe, Deputy Headmistress) must, obviously have known they were not getting to Harry, so why keep sending them? I cannot even believe Minerva sending more than thirty letters! Why not either,  A) Send the letters directly to Harry  OR  B) Show up at the house, to explain everything.  Why not do a more logical way of sending/explaining Harry's being? Editing Photoshop (PSD) files on Ubuntu? I was wondering that is it possible to edit PSD files on Ubuntu (like with Gimp). Actually, I need to edit layers. I haven't managed to do it. It would be nice if there is a chance! :) I have 4 copies of the Hot Questions widgets.  Sometimes, possibly after they reload on their own, I can only tap to open the last widget I added. If I tap on the question of any others nothing happens.  If I refresh each one then tapping works on the one I refreshed. Create a tar archive split into blocks of a maximum size ElasticSearch doesn't start after installing 5.6.4 Refreshing Formula Fields Dynamically (without save) I have an "invoice" custom object which has a couple of summarising formula fields in. I also have a complicated and dynamic visualforce page for building the invoice objects.  As the user is completing this form, different areas are dynamically updated to show "latest" values. This is all fine where I am copying data about or performing bespoke lookups and maths, but - in what is really the simplest case - a formula field, I can find no way to get the value to update, without performing some weird cyclic save + reload of the whole object.  This is inappropriate for a couple of reasons (the object should not be saved until the invoice is complete + accepted) and the other option I have found online is to spoof the value by duplicating my formula field maths into the custom controller and re-executing them there - also unacceptable from a code/logic location/duplication perspective.  Is there anyway to "force" an object/page to recalculate it's formula fields, either through standard or extended controllers? How to determine equality for two JavaScript objects?
