I submitted a paper to Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems that uses the prosemanager submission system. The manuscript status has changed from "Awaiting Reviewer Assign" to "Awaiting Reviews(8 outstanding)".  And now "Awaiting Reviews(8 outstanding)" changes continuously to "Awaiting Reviews(7 outstanding)", "Awaiting Reviews(6 outstanding)", ..., "Awaiting Reviews(4 outstanding)" with time.   What does this change mean? What is the flow chart of the different statuses for a manuscript for this "Awaiting Reviews"?
What steps does a manuscript typically go through from submission to publication (or rejection) in a typical journal? How are these steps referred to, in particular by editorial systems, and how long do they each typically take?  Note that this question is about the typical situation and hence not about:   Journals with an atypical workflow, e.g. those that allow for an instantaneous reviewer–author interaction. Exceptional steps or rare occurrences such as withdrawal or .   This is a canonical question on this topic as per . Due to its nature, it is rather broad and not exemplary for a regular question on this site. Please feel free to improve this question.
I went through a , but the answer was informing how to hide the monitor, but not how to disable it. I do not want any new windows to creep into the laptop display when the external display is connected. I could not find any in the Display Settings (under System Preferences). I don't want to close the lid because I think it impacts the air flow of the MacBook Pro. I don't want to close the lid because the sound quality is reduced.

I have a 64-bit (amd64 a.k.a. x86_64) Debian or Ubuntu installation. I need to run 32-bit (i386/i686) programs occasionally, or to compile programs for a 32-bit system. How can I do this with a minimum of fuss?  Bonus: what if I want to run or test with an older or newer release of the distribution?

Mac Mini (Mid-2011), 16GB SSD, 16GB RAM, El Capitan (v10.11.6)  The Mac ran fine until I upgraded to Sierra. The latest Mac OS conflicted with most of the specialized apps I use every day, So I immediately returned to El Capitan.  Activity monitor shows that two "Installer/Installer.app" items are always running and are they major users of all of my available memory. Consequently, all my others apps become unresponsive.  I run Disk Utility, and the Installer.app show up there as .dmg files; but I cannot erase, delete, or unmount them. None of my 3rd party app can remove the installers.  My Mac Mini, which should be running super-fast (as it used to), now runs dreadfully and disgustingly slow. I a truly upset with Apple for this kind of garbage. To get their help: $$$. The + vowel letter I've been told that when "the" is proceeded by a vowel sound, like "apple" or "hour", it's pronounced as "thee" and not as "thu".  But after listening to a couple of songs, I noticed that sometimes this "rule" is not followed. Take for example the two Katy Perry's songs, "Roar" and "The one that got away". In the first she sings "I got thee eye of thu tiger", but in the second she sings "Thu one that got away".  I don't know if it was sang this way to better suit the song melody (I understand nothing about those techniques), but I got confused. What's the correct pronunciation?  Thanks in advance. Which IP address do I use to access my server? I'm running a Samba server on my MacBook and I've also set up port forwarding to said server from my router.  My public IP is 106.51.x.x (according to google and a few other services) and my Mac's local IP is 192.168.x.x, but when I head to my router's configuration page, it says my external IP is 10.242.x.x.  This is what I don't understand, when connected to my home WiFi, using the 10.242.x.x address works just fine. But if I try to access the same over 4G, the connection times out.  As for the public address, neither WiFi nor 4G works.  Is there some setting on my Mac (I'm running MacOS Sierra) that I must alter to make it visible to the public? Odds made simple banner set interval How to convert hex string to float in Java? What type of Collider should I add to a LineRenderer? I am currently building a game where I need to generate some wires (as Bézier curves) using LineRenderer. After changing the width of each line  lineRenderer.SetWidth (0.15f, 0.15f);   I am attaching an EdgeCollider2D to the same game object (specifying the same points used in generating the Bézier curve). This seems to work. However, I would like to be able to know if the Mouse Pointer is at any time over the EdgeCollider2D (something similar to the popular Fruit Ninja game). I'm using Raycast as follows:  void CastRay() {     Ray ray = Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay (Input.mousePosition);     RaycastHit2D hit = Physics2D.Raycast (ray.origin, ray.direction, Mathf.Infinity);      if (hit) {         Debug.Log (hit.collider.gameObject.name);     } }   I'm calling the CastRay method inside the Update method. Because EdgeCollider2D does not have width (as expected), the log message is never produced.  Do I need to use a different type of Collider? Do I need to call CastRay somewhere else? Is floating point math broken? Consider the following code:   0.1 + 0.2 == 0.3  -&gt;  false   0.1 + 0.2         -&gt;  0.30000000000000004   Why do these inaccuracies happen? I'm writing a web app using Twitter Bootstrap with PHP on server side. My app makes regular ajax requests via jQuery and i want to disable certain parts of the UI until the server completes processing and hands back the control to Client-Side.  I wonder what would be best practices for the same? Prove that even + odd is odd. Prove that a even number + odd number = odd number  Let $x$ be the even number, let $y$ be the odd number.   From the definition of odd numbers, $y + 1$ is even.   Let:  $$x + y = z$$  Suppose $z$ is even.   $$x + y = z$$  It follows that:  $$x = x + y - y = z - y$$  But I cant think of any other contradiction here. The issue is with the assumption I suppose. Any help is appreciated! Case-insensitive string comparison in C++ Do trees really get a large share of their mass from the carbon in the air? I remember hearing that trees and other plants actually obtain a large amount of their mass from the carbon floating in the air, not the ground beneath them. Does the makeup of air actually contain enough carbon to support this theory, and is a tree's surface area actually large enough to obtain the amount of carbon it needs directly from the air?
