Fuzzy string search library in Java Great Expectations [is written vs has been written] by Charles Dickens This code won't compile:  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{listings} \lstset{     language=C,     basicstyle=\small }  \begin{document} lorem ipsum\footnote{% \begin{lstlisting} // some C code or whatever... printf("Blah blah\n"); \end{lstlisting}} \end{document}   It says Illegal parameter number in definition of \lst@insertargs. I know listings is really picky about where it goes, but there must be a way to cram a listing into a footnote, right?  (This is a MWE and my tex files are a bit more complex; my actual error is Paragraph ended before \lst@next was complete. but they are hopefully related; I couldn't get this error with the MWE.) How do I revert a Git repository to a previous commit? Turning vector grid into individual shapefiles using QGIS? I am using QGIS and I created a vector grid on a crop field in order to cut it into plots. I want to save each grid cell into individual polygon shapefiles automatically.  Here is an example of a vector grid I would like to split into 117 shapefiles:    Eventually, I did it manually with the selection tool and "Save as" but it is really time-consuming when there are more than 100 plots to save.    Is there any way to do it faster and more automatically?  Each plot as an attribute named "Plot" that can discriminate against them (basically being id + 1). It's the attribute used here to label them. Placement of varistor with respect to fuse My design includes a pretty standard AC/DC converter powered by mains for intended use at home. For overvoltage and overcurrent protection, I am planning to use a combination of varistor and fuse placed before the power converter.  I understand it is good practice to put the fuse before the varistor - in an overvoltage event, the varistor will draw a large current that may blow the fuse, protecting the rest of the circuit and even the upstream circuitry.  However, due to extremely tight layout, it is very hard to put the fuse before the varistor.  What risk am I running if I put the varistor before the fuse?  What if I put a second fuse in series with the varistor? Does it negate the varistor's protection of the downstream circuit? Is the tabu package obsolete? "Distribution worker" vs. "distributed worker" I cannot differentiate the meanings of the two words. Could you please clarify?   In general, when should I use a noun (distribution) or an adjective (distributed) for verbs similar to distribute, like organize, create? I am looking for a story about the future of mankind, in which most people have been enslaved in a virtual reality. It ends with the revelation that the people are just lying there imagining their lives with their heads in a trough of feed.  It explains that chemists began to create compounds that could be released into the air to manipulate citizens - causing them to live, shop, think as desired by whoever was in charge. Eventually these tools got subtle enough that they could simulate reality using just these airborne compounds.  This was clearly a prescient view of what later became computer-based virtual reality fiction. pc ram memory 2x1GB or 1x2GB I don't know if it's the right place to ask but can somebody advise me for buying a ram memory for my computer.  I have a Dell Vostro 200 with 1GB of RAM and 667MHz. (2 x 512MB)  I want to buy raise the amount of RAM but I'm confused whether to buy 1 x 2GB or 2 x 1GB  I know it's the same for the available amount of memory but is ther a difference maybe in the clock speed so that 2 x 667MHz will be better than 1 x 667MHz. or maybe accessing one single memory slot will be faster and better than accessing two slots.  Please anyone helps. How can I attach a file to a post? Retagging questions in terms of possible answer technologies When entering the title of this query I was pointed to , which has tentatively endorsed this concept, especially once an answer has been accepted.  Can I get a confirmation that it is actually good practice before an answer has been accepted? (IMHO it is not.)  Two examples:   : I didn't need a WCF answer, which I would have assumed if I had seen the question tagged with WCF even if I didn't mention it in the question or title.   : It looks probable that the answer (if there is one) is related to AOP, but the questioner does not require it. "I want you succeeding" vs. "I want your succeeding" There's vs There are For example:     There's two options here   or     There are two options here   I hear a lot of people say the first line (or something similar), but isn't that incorrect? Isn't it plural and therefore you should use "there are"? Who should I be damage buffing as Mercy I just started playing Overwatch (played a few games during open beta, but wasn't able to play much). I'm enjoying Mercy, but who (in a group situation) should be getting the damage buff? Additionally, when my team splits up, who should I follow to support? How to enable multiple logon remote desktop in Windows 7 How to format numbers as currency strings How to find chromatic number of the $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$? I've just executed a long-running process from the bash prompt. In hindsight, I wish I'd run time on it, or noted down the time at which I kicked it off.  Is there any way of getting this information retrospectively? The .bash_history doesn't seem to include timestamps.  In my particular case it's Mac OS X, but I'm interested in general Unix/Linux solutions.  To clarify, the process has now completed, and I'd prefer not to run it again unless absolutely necessary! Open Mapping Theorem: counterexample The Open Mapping Theorem says that a linear continuous surjection between Banach spaces is an open mapping. I am writing some lecture notes on the Open Mapping Theorem. I guess it would be nice to have some counterexamples. After all, how can you appreciate it's meaning without a nice counterexample showing how the conclusion could fail and why the conclusion is not obvious at all.  Let $\ell^1 \subset \mathbb{R}^\infty$ be the set of sequences $(a_1, a_2, \dotsc)$, such that $\sum |a_j| &lt; \infty$. If we consider the $\ell^1$ norm $\|\cdot\|_1$ and the supremum norm $\|\cdot\|_s$, then, $(\ell^1, \|\cdot\|_1)$ is complete, while $(\ell^1, \|\cdot\|_s)$ is not complete.  In this case, the identity $$   \begin{array}{rrcl}     \mathrm{id}:&amp; (\ell^1, \|\cdot\|_1)&amp; \to &amp;(\ell^1, \|\cdot\|_s)     \\                 &amp; x &amp; \mapsto &amp; x   \end{array} $$ is a continuous bijection but it is not open.  I want a counterexample in the opposite direction. That is, I want a linear continuous bijection $T: E \to F$ between normed spaces $E$ and $F$ such that $F$ is Banach but $T$ is not open. This is equivalent to finding a vector space $E$ with non-equivalent norms $\|\cdot\|_c$ and $\|\cdot\|_n$, such that $E$ is complete when considered the norm $\|\cdot\|_c$, and such that $$   \|\cdot\|_c   \leq   \|\cdot\|_n. $$ The Open Mapping Theorem implies that $\|\cdot\|_n$ is not complete.  So, is anyone aware of such a counterexample?
