Lately I've noticed a very annoying trend where individual answers are being indexed by Google. Often these are not even the accepted answer but for whatever reason it's what gets picked up.  Is this a recent change in SO's indexing policy? A profile setting to always go to the question would be awesome.
Lately, I've seen many search results in the form of https://stackoverflow.com/q/&lt;id&gt; and /a/&lt;id&gt; on Google. Why do I see these slug-less permalinks instead of the full URL?  For instance, a search for  gives  instead of :        For the record, it seems that Google has indexed  and .
Error: Account is Not Allowed To Suggest Edits I get this message while trying to edit a post on SuperUser while using the iOS mobile app. I have at least 101 reputation on SU, more than enough to be able to edit posts. This appears to be a bug. Which is better: ... or ... How is the skillset of an evolution being chosen? You may already know that if you catch two Pidgeys, they may have a different skillset.  I've also seen that evolving them from different skillsets will also create Pidgeottos with different skillsets.  Are those skills chosen randomly or do they follow a specific pattern? (Like Pidgey pattern 1 will always evolve into Pidgeotto pattern 1.)  If they are specific, is there a website to check for them? Given a template where the HTML cannot be modified because of other requirements, how is it possible to display (rearrange) a div above another div when they are not in that order in the HTML? Both divs contain data that varies in height and width.  &lt;div id="wrapper"&gt;     &lt;div id="firstDiv"&gt;         Content to be below in this situation     &lt;/div&gt;     &lt;div id="secondDiv"&gt;         Content to be above in this situation     &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; Other elements   Hopefully it is obvious that the desired result is:  Content to be above in this situation Content to be below in this situation Other elements   When the dimensions are fixed it easy to position them where needed, but I need some ideas for when the content is variable. For the sake of this scenario, please just consider the width to be 100% on both.  I am specifically looking for a CSS-only solution (and it will probably have to be met with other solutions if that doesn't pan out).   There are other elements following this. A good suggestion was mentioned given the limited scenario I demonstrated&mdash;given that it might be the best answer, but I am looking to also make sure elements following this aren't impacted. I created an ext4 partition to back-up my files to, and partitioned it for 102GB in Gparted using a live USB. After I booted into Ubuntu, I opened Disk Utility, and it said that the partition was actually 108GB. Confused, I opened the mounted partition in Nautilus, and it said the partition was only 98GB.  Which is correct? Did I partition it wrong? Why are my wrists the first part of my body to start aching during a long ride? Most riders seem to say it's their groin, neck or lower back that starts hurting first after a decent distance has been ridden. For me it is my wrists.  I have no history of wrist pain (strains, breaks etc) so it can't be explained by that and I try to adjust my hand positions across my handlebars as often as I can.  My question has 2 parts:   1. Is there anything I can do to minimise pain in terms of riding position, gloves, exercises etc which will reduce soreness?  2. Why might this pain be occurring?  *I do all of my riding on paved roads on a road (Specialized Allez) bike. I'm having trouble with \includegraphics I'm using MacTeX Is the word tenfold a misnomer? How to force the browser to reload cached CSS and JavaScript files I have noticed that some browsers (in particular, Firefox and ) are very zealous in using cached copies of .css and .js files, even between browser sessions. This leads to a problem when you update one of these files, but the user's browser keeps on using the cached copy. What is the most elegant way of forcing the user's browser to reload the file when it has changed? Ideally, the solution would not force the browser to reload the file on every visit to the page.  I have found  and  suggestion to be useful. It turns out there is a term for this: auto-versioning. I have posted a new answer below which is a combination of my original solution and John's suggestion. Another idea that was suggested by SCdF would be to append a bogus query string to the file. (Some Python code, to automatically use the timestamp as a bogus query string, was .) However, there is some discussion as to whether or not the browser would cache a file with a query string. (Remember, we want the browser to cache the file and use it on future visits. We only want it to fetch the file again when it has changed.) Let $x, y$ and $z$ be real numbers such that $x^2+ y^2+ z^2= 1$. Find the   maximum and minimum values of $2x + 3y + z$ .       How can I able to solve the problem? Thanks for your help. Access network share from within VBScript eg FileSystemObject Opposite of caregiver I want to write a book about the unfair expectations of a caregiver. A caregiver refers to somebody to looks after somebody else.  What is the term for that 'somebody else'.  'Patient' doesn't seem all encompassing. I know that in the case of Gaussian mixture, the "intuition" is that you're drawing from a PDF which itself is just a sum of weighted Gaussian PDFs.  I don't understand the intuition behind how the sum of two iid Gaussian RVs leads to a Gaussian RV. I know the maths behind it, but I'm having a hard time visualizing how the sum of two Gaussian RVs leads to a Gaussian RV (and not a mixture). Can anyone please help and tell me if this sentence is correct?  &quot;A significant amount of zombies were detected in your city.&quot;  In my opinion it should be &quot;A significant amount of zombies was detected in your city.&quot; because &quot;amount&quot; should be in agreement with &quot;was&quot; even though amount usually refers to something plural. Are both (was and were) acceptable in this case? Edit1: Yes, &quot;number&quot; would be the correct one in this case. So allow me to ask one more thing.  &quot;A significant amount of purchases were detected...&quot;  Does the use of &quot;number&quot; apply in this case also? As purchase is not exactly a thing/person. And if no, is it correct to say &quot;A significant amount of purchases were detected...&quot;? Edit2: So, please tell me what is the correct phrasing?  &quot;A significant amount of purchases were detected...&quot; &quot;A significant amount of purchases was detected...&quot;  Or, since purchases are countable, is the use of &quot;number&quot; instead of &quot;amount&quot; correct here, as in:  &quot;A significant number of purchases were detected...&quot; &quot;A significant number of purchases was detected...&quot;  Or would amount be correct since a purchase involves money and it refers to the amount of money? Would greatly appreciate an answer, and if possible a detailed explanation. I asked  yesterday, approximately 18 hours ago ("2011-12-13 20:24:03Z" according to the hover text), and it's still being displayed as "today".  I assume the "Z" in the timestamp refers to Zulu time, so I , and the date (2011-12-14) differs from the timestamp on the question.  I don't pretend to understand all of the complexities when converting time zones, but I thought it was strange enough to report. If it matters at all, I'm in US-Eastern. I started learning Bash a couple of days ago.  I'm trying to obtain an exit status of grep expression into a variable like this:  check=grep -ci 'text' file.sh   and the output that I got is   No command '-ic' found   Should I do it with a pipe command? How can I match multiple occurrences with a regex in JavaScript similar to PHP's preg_match_all()? I am trying to parse url-encoded strings that are made up of key=value pairs separated by either &amp; or &amp;amp;.   The following will only match the first occurrence, breaking apart the keys and values into separate result elements:  var result = mystring.match(/(?:&amp;|&amp;amp;)?([^=]+)=([^&amp;]+)/)   The results for the string '1111342=Adam%20Franco&amp;348572=Bob%20Jones' would be:  ['1111342', 'Adam%20Franco']   Using the global flag, 'g', will match all occurrences, but only return the fully matched sub-strings, not the separated keys and values:  var result = mystring.match(/(?:&amp;|&amp;amp;)?([^=]+)=([^&amp;]+)/g)   The results for the string '1111342=Adam%20Franco&amp;348572=Bob%20Jones' would be:  ['1111342=Adam%20Franco', '&amp;348572=Bob%20Jones']   While I could split the string on &amp; and break apart each key/value pair individually, is there any way using JavaScript's regular expression support to match multiple occurrences of the pattern /(?:&amp;|&amp;amp;)?([^=]+)=([^&amp;]+)/ similar to PHP's preg_match_all() function?  I'm aiming for some way to get results with the sub-matches separated like:  [['1111342', '348572'], ['Adam%20Franco', 'Bob%20Jones']]   or   [['1111342', 'Adam%20Franco'], ['348572', 'Bob%20Jones']] I'm trying to show the following:  Let $f:X\to Y$ be a proper holomorphic map between connected, non-empty Riemann Surfaces. Show that a map $g:Y\to\mathbb{C}$ is  holomorphic if and only if  its composition with f is holomorphic.  So far I know that $f$ is surjective, since it's proper and holomorphic. My next step was to look at the charts, but it's there, I get stuck. I have an ASUS E402S laptop with Ubuntu 64-bit 16.04 LTS installed. The main problem is that the OS does recognize the touchpad with basic functions, but additional options such as scrolling through pages or between open applications are non-existent.
