Which of the following is grammatically correct?  I am having OR I have. We/they/you are having OR we/they/you have.  For eg.  I have/ We have a problem that I/we can't seem get rid of.  OR  I am having/ We are having a problem that I/we can't seem get rid of.
I use Stack Overflow a lot and have noticed a certain trend that I myself got caught up in at one time of using the phrase "I am having a problem" in place of "I have a problem."  I would use this phrase for an event in the future, for example, "I am having a steak dinner tonight," but for a problem that I need solved and am asking for a solution, I'd use "I have a problem..."   What would force us to use this phrase? Is it even valid English for the present tense?
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity, and $S$ a multiplicative subset of $R$ not containing $0$. Which step in my reasoning is wrong?   Every element of $S$ is a unit in $S^{-1}R$. Every element of $S$ that's a zero divisor in $R$ is a zero divisor in $S^{-1}R$. But zero divisors can't be units. Therefore it's not possible to localize $R$ at $S$. Possible to do a MySQL foreign key to one of two possible tables? Go to  Add a few photos to a photo album Go back to All Photos   See all of the photos there, even ones you copied to the Album. No problem here, per se. At least not yet.  What if you want to delete photos that you did not copy to that album?  Where is the selector or filter that filters those "in an album already" photos from this main view?  Or is there a way to create such a filtered view such that I can then cherry-pick photos for deletion? How to check iOS version? Web service - current time zone for a city? Is there a web service of some sort (or any other way) to pull a current time zone settings for a (US) city. For the parts of the country that don't follow the Daylight Saving Time and basically jump timezones when everyone else is switching summer/winter time... I don't fancy creating own database of the places that don't follow DST. Is there a way to pull this data on demand?   I need this for the database server (not for client workstations) - there entities stored in the database that have City, State as properties. I need know current timezone for these entities at any moment of time. How can I get list of symbols, abbreviations, abstract, acknowledgements into Table of Contents before Introduction, and under roman numerals? Why is $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-n}], n\ge 3$ not a UFD? I'm considering the ring $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-n}]$, where $n\ge 3$ and square free. I want to see why it's not a UFD.   I defined a norm for the ring by $|a+b\sqrt{-n}|=a^2+nb^2$. Using this I was able to show that $2$, $\sqrt{-n}$ and $1+\sqrt{-n}$ are all irreducible. Is there someway to conclude that $\mathbb{Z}[\sqrt{-n}]$ is not a UFD based on this? Thanks. I found 11 questions like this on gamingSE already, but none of them have proper and up-to-date answers. So I'm creating this Q&amp;A:  How do you either activate a command x seconds/minutes/hours/… in the future or every x seconds/minutes/… in a loop?  Repeating command blocks and ticking functions execute 20 times per second, redstone is  in many situations and most of the extremely fancy solutions, like falling blocks in cobwebs, have broken over time or are needlessly complicated. How to group distinct values from a list using odata rest api Hi I have a list with two fields "Regions" &amp; "Countries" I am using a rest api to retrieve the list of just regions like so: http:mysitename/_api/web/lists/getByTitle('TaxTool')/items?$select=Region  In the results there are lots of duplicates and I was wondering how to return unique values. What are all the correct answers to the Squirrel's questions, and what is the reward when I get them all correct? What do you call a person who "shuts down" ideas? How do you iterate over each file in a directory with a .bat or .cmd file?  For simplicity please provide an answer that just echoes the filename or file path. Subfields of finite fields How does Linux kernel compare to microkernel architectures? I read once that one advantage of a microkernel architecture is that you can stop/start essential services like networking and filesystems, without needing to restart the whole system. But considering that Linux kernel nowadays (was it always the case?) offers the option to use modules to achieve the same effect, what are the (remaining) advantages of a microkernel? Number of bins when computing mutual information I want to quantify the relationship between two variables, A and B, using mutual information. The way to compute it is by binning the observations (see example Python code below). However, what factors determines what number of bins is reasonable? I need the computation to be fast so I cannot simply use a lot of bins to be on the safe side.  from sklearn.metrics import mutual_info_score  def calc_MI(x, y, bins):     c_xy = np.histogram2d(x, y, bins)[0]     mi = mutual_info_score(None, None, contingency=c_xy)     return mi If I multiply two numbers, say $3$ and $5$, I know it means add $3$ to itself $5$ times or add $5$ to itself $3$ times.    But If I multiply two matrices, what does it mean ?  I mean I can't think it in terms of repetitive addition.       What is the intuitive way of thinking about multiplication of matrices?

I want to find its title.  The story takes place in a kingdom that is preparing for the a cycle of war, where every time the winds changes (50 or 100 years), invaders will try to cross the sea from another continent using airships with air balloons, filled with soldiers and warlocks. The kingdom has made several man-made island fortress along their coastline, filled with soldiers with war machines, sorcerers, and enchanters who act as the main guard/defence for the kingdom, calling lightning and fireballs, and using machines to stop and destroy and bring down as many of the invader airships as possible while countering the warlocks on board.  The book involved a man and a girl whose journey brought them apart in preparing for the imminent war.   The women found herself adept in magic and went to the academy in the capital to learn to be a sorceress.   The man found a different calling. With a good memory, he was sent to learn to become a mnemonic storyteller (to train with battle staff and fighting skill and mnēmonikos skill) who carried the history, literature of the entire culture in their heads. They used their knowledge to convey the kingdom's literature, poetry, history and stories to the people from generation to generation.  Both eventually "graduate". Sadly, and with great emotion, both have to part ways. She was sent to a fortress island and began her role as a sorcerer who will stand guard there. He, as a storyteller, began his own journey without her, going from town to town, village and soldier barrack, across the kingdom, telling stories of great men and their deeds, and courageous heroes who fought the war, to uplift the spirit of the people and bring valor to the soldiers stationed at the border and people in the coming war.   In brief, he meets a dragon (who used to be involved in the war in ages past), long thought to be extinct. He finds himself able to communicate with it and has a "born" friendship with it. The dragon teaches him to become a "dragon rider", a long-lost ability of his people (due to the "extinction" of dragons.)   The wind changes with the dread of war hanging on the kingdom.  Airships start to blacken the sky again with soldiers and war machines battling each other. Poll on best VNC / remote desktop software for assisting others on Windows/Mac machines from Ubuntu?    I've heard good things about TeamViewer and Fog Creek Copilot, but I'm wondering if the included GNOME Vinaigre VNC client is good enough for this.  To specify, I'm looking for best option based on:   SIMPLEST ease-of-use for client to download/use on their end. See #1. Works cross-platform I am able to control client's mouse and/or keyboard from remote machine.
