Lets call the app I need to close A. The problem I have is that A starts an other application, lets call it B.  So if I close A, B is still running.  The reason why I need to also close B is because if I restart A after I closed it, it does not work properly, because a B app is already running because a previous A started it.  I only know the path to the A application.  Sysinternals Procmon can see that they have this starter-started relationship, but how can I?    I'm writing my closer app in Delphi, but I'm open to any alternative solutions.  Thanks.
I'm currently passing the pid on the command line to the child, but is there a way to do this in the Win32 API?  Alternatively, can someone alleviate my fear that the pid I'm passing might belong to another process after some time if the parent has died?
What is the difference between lands and mana? What is the relationship between lands and mana in Magic and what do each of them do?  A good answer should especially include how a new player should think about them.    Note:  This is an attempt to create a canonical question about the relationship between lands and mana in Magic.  Beginners are often confused about this given the same symbols are used to mean different things across basic lands, non-basic lands, and mana costs.  This can lead to confusion about , about , or even about . Show that $\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} \sqrt[n]{c_1^n+c_2^n+\ldots+c_m^n} = \max\{c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_m\}$ Let $m\in \mathbb{N}$ and $c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_m \in \mathbb{R}_+$. Show that $$\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} \sqrt[n]{c_1^n+c_2^n+\ldots+c_m^n} = \max\{c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_m\}$$  My attempt: Since $$\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} \sqrt[n]{c_1^n+c_2^n+\ldots+c_m^n} \leq \lim_{n\rightarrow \infty}\sqrt[n]{\max\{c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_m\}} = \lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} \sqrt[n]{n}\sqrt[n]{\max\{c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_m\}}=\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \max\{\sqrt[n]{c_1^n},\sqrt[n]{c_2^n},\ldots,\sqrt[n]{c_m^n}\}=\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}\max\{c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_m\}=\max\{c_1,c_2,\ldots,c_m\}$$  it follows that $\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} \sqrt[n]{c_1^n+c_2^n+\ldots+c_m^n}$ is bounded, but I don't think it's monotonically decreasing, at least I can't prove this. Can anybody tell me whether the approach I have chosen is a good one, whether what I have done is correct and how to finish the proof?

Is Feyerabend confusing discovery and justification when he criticizes the scientific method? I am reading Feyerabend's "Against Method", where he uses Copernicus's (and Galileo's confirmation) discovery of the fact that the Earth orbits around the Sun and other examples to show that irrational approaches can lead to legitimate scientific progress. He then claims that no unified epistemic principle or principles can be used to define science, and that science is best characterized by anarchy.   Is he confusing the way scientific truth is discovered with the way scientific truth is epistemically justified?   Even if it is true that Copernicus, Galileo and others used irrational methods to arrive at valid scientific discoveries, why does that affect science's special epistemic status compared to other fields of inquiry? Can whole chilli peppers be frozen? I have some  chilli peppers bought from the local supermarket.    Aren't they lovely?  :)  Well, unfortunately, my local supermarket (I think the only one in the UK that stocks them) doesn't always have them in stock, so when they do appear on the shelves, I quickly stock-up on them.  Storing them in the fridge, they'll last maybe a week or so before starting to deteriorate.  My question is, can these chili peppers be frozen and, if so, will freezing them have any "negative" effects ?  I buy these particular peppers for their heat (and also their great smoky flavour), so I'd hate for either the heat or the flavour to be negatively impacted if they were frozen. Using Rule of Three to obtain confidence interval for a binomial population I have a large population of data instances (say, 1000 instances) that are either of class1 or of class2. I would like to obtain a confidence interval for how many instances are of class1 without exhaustively checking all instances. I have randomly sampled 50 instances, and all 50 were of class1. I used the  to determine that a 95% confidence interval for the percentage that an instance is of class1 is  [0.94, 1].  From my sampling, I know that at least 50 instances are of class1. For the remaining 1000 – 50 = 950 instances whose classes are unknown, I assume I can apply the [0.94, 1] confidence interval found above. Therefore, can I conclude that, with a 95% confidence, there are at least 50 + (1000 – 50)(0.94) = 943 instances from the population of 1000 that are of class1?  If this conclusion isn’t statistically sound, how can I obtain a confidence interval for class1? Which of the following is most correct?      The distance of the shortest path must not be higher than 10km.   The distance of the shortest path must not be greater than 10km.   The distance of the shortest path must not be bigger than 10km.   Or is there an even better word? How to clone ArrayList and also clone its contents? A composition of a periodic function that is somehow not periodic. My actual WhatsApp back total size is 474Mb but when I go to I cloud back up it is showing 10GB, how is it possible? I mean I have deleted all media files from my WhatsApp and in WhatsApp application the total space is 474MB and also in iCloud storage it is 474MB, but when I entered further in to Backups and then choose my phone, it shows total backup size is 14GB and WhatsApp itself is taking 10GB. Can someone help with this? Collinearity can pose certain problems in various kinds of regression problem. In particular, it can make the parameter estimates have high variance and be unstable.   Various methods have been proposed to deal with this including ridge regression, partial least squares regression, principal components regression, dropping variables and getting more data.   One method that is controversial is standardizing or scaling the independent variables, with various experts saying it is a good (e.g. Garcia) or bad (e.g. Belsley) idea. Belsley's issue seems to be (in non-technical terms) that changing the IVs just pushes the problem under the rug.  But other experts seem not to agree. And the authors tend to get rather heated in defending their own positions.   Back when I did my dissertation (on collinearity diagnostics) I found Belsley's arguments convincing, but that was long ago (I got my degree in 1999).  I'm looking either for expert guidance or for any current review article that is unbiased. How do I iterate over a range of numbers in Bash when the range is given by a variable?  I know I can do this (called "sequence expression" in the Bash ):   for i in {1..5}; do echo $i; done   Which gives:     1    2    3    4    5   Yet, how can I replace either of the range endpoints with a variable? This doesn't work:  END=5 for i in {1..$END}; do echo $i; done   Which prints:     {1..5} Can a virtualized machine have the CPU and RAM resources of multiple underlying physical machines? We are studying implementing some virtualized servers here, but we don't know what will be better suitable for us. Some folks are saying better have two huge servers, and others are saying have like a ten middle-end servers.  We have a legacy Visual Foxpro application, which nowadays run on Dual Xeon E5405 @ 2GHz and 16Gb of RAM. The currently server its getting too slow due the number of active users and process running on it. Virtualizing this server will give us the benefit of an faster disaster recovery.  So the question is, having like ten physical servers running at 1.7GHz and 4Gb of RAM, we could virtualize one server into 4 machines, and have one virtualized server running at 6.8GHz and 16Gb of memory? If yes, there is some how if one machine stops, automatically manage this virtual machine to another one, and execute the appropriate maintenance on it, and later back to it again? Call marker color in Geojson to apply to leaflet.js in php I just had a case of a user who re-posted his question because his first question was closed as a duplicate. And, logically, I closed his re-post as a duplicate of his original, asking him to edit his original and explain why it's not a duplicate, so we can reopen it.  This process has worked like that for years now, but suddenly I realized that with the new message, question repetition is even encouraged:     This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.   Clearly, a new user who finds their questions closed will now be happy to just post their question again and again, until it's not a duplicate anymore, instead of just fixing their original post.  We need to be more explicit about this, and show this message to the OP of the question:     If those answers do not fully address your question, please edit your question and explain why it is not a duplicate.   The original message should still be visible to other users and visitors, as they can't fix that question, of course. Mountain Bike on Paved Roads I'm an occasional biker. I bought a mountain bike (nothing fancy) with the idea that I might use it off-road or on mountain trails (of which there are many here in Calgary). However, since I've bought it I've done nothing but bike in the city on streets and paved bike trails.  Is there anything worth doing to my bike to convert it to something more suited to urban biking? In particular, the tires have me wondering; they have large rubber off-roading lugs that surely aren't doing me any favors on pavement. I'm not looking to spend a tons of money on a retrofit, but will do so if its worthwhile. What is $\int_{-\pi}^\pi \cos(nx)\cos(mx)\,dx$? How do I get lightning:datatable to do some undocumented thing X? Canonical Question  I want to do &lt;some really cool thing&gt; with a lightning:datatable, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. I checked the , but I did not see a way to implement &lt;this really cool feature I need&gt;.  Perhaps I want to provide tooltips, or a pick list, or alter the behavior of the menus, or display images, or show a custom component I created, or define a new row-level click behavior, or alter the keyboard event handlers, etc.  Can I somehow do this?
