A word for someone who refuses to admit to being wrong or mistaken about anything, even as minor as a typo?
Is there a word for someone that always has to be right? The person gets angry if they are not.
I want to prove the  over a field are prime ideals. To be concrete:      For simplicity, let $I=(x_{11}x_{22}-x_{12}x_{21},x_{11}x_{23}-x_{13}x_{21},x_{12}x_{23}-x_{13}x_{22})$ be an ideal of the polynomial ring $k[x_{11},\ldots,x_{23}]$. I have no idea how to prove that $I$ is a radical ideal (i.e. $I=\sqrt{I}$). Could anyone give some hints?   Generally, let $K$ be an algebraically closed field, then $\{A\mid\mathrm{Rank}(A)\leq r\}\subseteq K^{m\times n}$ is an irreducible algebraic set (I first saw this result from ). And I tried to prove this by myself, then I have proved it (when I see the "Segre embedding").      But I have no idea how to show that the "determinantal ideals" are radical ideals (I hope this is true). BTW, is the statement that the determinantal ideals over a field are prime ideals true ?   Thanks. convergence to infinity of$ (2^n + 3^n)^{\frac{1}{n}}$ (as $n \to \infty$) Just checking. $2^n$ ($n \to \infty$) tends to $\infty$. + $3^n$ also ($n \to \infty$) tends to $\infty$  so the sum gets me $\infty$.  Now $(\infty)^{1/\infty}$ : $(\infty)^0 = 1$  I see no other way.  Theorem: $n^{\frac{1}{n}} = 1$ as $n \to \infty$.  Analogous:  $(2^n - 3^n)^\frac{1}{n}$ = $(\infty  - \infty)^0$ = 1 ???  Is it ok to suppose infinity on any integer $k^n$ as $n$ goes to infinity ? New Google SEO benefit with SSL - with only a few sections in SSL, or always on? I can't seem to get this hat on straight!

Using File Geodatabase coded domain with ArcGIS Online? I created a File GDB and set up a domain, and the domain was assigned to a field in a feature class. The domain behaves as expected on ArcGIS Desktop (dropdown list when editing the content of that field).  But if I zip up the FGDB and upload to ArcGIS Online to created a feature layer and edit the layer online, there is no dropdown when editing.  I don't see any additional step in this tutorial, other than a different mechanism of getting data to ArcGIS Online. I don't think I can do it the same way in ArcGIS 10.0:   Anyone has any idea what's going on? Received an unexpected cashiers check for over $2K from another state - is this some scam? This is actually about my sister-in-law who lives in Georgia. She just received a "cashiers check" for $2395 from a company in Indiana. It looks like this:    She said that she has been doing "mystery shopper" work for a company and thought that this would be payment for that, but that usually the payments she received for that work were just a couple of hundreds of dollars.  She said she had not done that much of that "mystery shopper" work that she would have expected to receive anything close to the amount on this check.  She was asking me about it but I thought that if she does not know the sender, perhaps this could be some kind of new scam and she should check with the local police (which she said she was going to do).  Anyway I wanted to ask here if anyone knows of a scam like this? Considering that the check here seems to be a "cashiers check", how would a scam like this even work?  Update: I just found out that there was indeed a letter included with the check (and it seems to have instructions similar to those mentioned in the answer by "BrenBarn"). This is indeed related to that "mystery shopper" work. Turns out the reason she was not sure was because the sender of that check has a different company name than the company she normally dealt with. Here is a part of the letter: Why enums require an explicit cast to int type? Is there a way to Inset in the opposite direction (not Outset)? Is there an operation similar to inset that creates faces in the opposite direction? That is, instead of creating faces inwards, they create faces outwards?

Is there a case insensitive version of the  jQuery selector or should I do the work manually by looping over all elements and comparing their .text() to my string? Is there a single word for a "friend of a friend"? I am looking for a word that I could use instead of "friend of a friend". On certain occasions, it happens that you may want to talk about a friend of a friend with someone else.   In such cases how would you refer to this friend? How do the Incredible Hulk's pants stay on but not his shirt? I guess I can live with the fact that the  changes size drastically when he transforms, but why does his shirt rip off and not his pants?  I think that we need a little better answer than "it keeps us tied to the fact that inside he's still human".

Since I updated to Ubuntu 17.10 a while ago, my private keys – the which I use for example to access my server via ssh – are not unlocked programmatically after login anymore.    My understanding is, that usually the seahorse client should take care of this, by asking you whether or not to store the key's password when typing them in for the first time.  My first guess was, that seahorse-daemon wasn't running for some reason, but it is:  user@Zeus:~$ ps aux | grep seahorse user    19170  0.0  0.1 432636 26564 ?        Ss   00:07   0:00 seahorse-daemon   My second guess was, that for some reason I have to delete all related passwords stored in seahorse under »Passwords->login«:    I was hoping to force the client to ask me again and then storing them again. But this didn't help either. The client does not pop up to ask me...  Then I found this question, which could be related, but did not help me:    As the management of other passwords work as expected (for example passwords for nautilus, Chromium, Nextcloud etc.) I assume the problem has to do something with ssh-agent...  Can anybody hint me in the right directions, how to solve this problem? Has anything changed in the way how GNOME handles passwords? Maybe some new fancy program failed being installed during the upgrade process?   UPDATE When I add the private key to the authentication agent again with:  ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa   and try to log in, I will be asked to unlock the key only once, after that the key gets unlocked programmatically. But this works only until the next reboot. After a fresh start, I have to add the key again... How to prove one has spent time in the non-Schengen European microstates, in order to pause the Schengen clock? I am considering staying in Monaco, San Marino, or Vatican City before I can enter the Schengen area again. , it is valid to stay in these three micro-states in order to stop the Schengen clock. However, also according to the answer:  Problems will arise when the visitor ultimately leaves the zone and must undergo a Schengen exit inspection. At this point the person may be asked to prove that they are not an overstayer and the border guard will be entitled to see hard evidence in the form of official documentation. There was a case where an individual attempted to show that his mobile phone registered to a tower outside of the zone and this failed obviously: radio waves have no respect for nation borders but also one could mail the SIM card to a friend in a far away land, put in a phone where it registers to the tower and then mail it back. Apparently hotel receipts can be too easily forged to be successful as evidence. What the border guard will want to see is a passport stamp from the local constabulary. But the constabulary is under no obligation to issue one, so success is down to personal impact and articulation skills.  I'm not sure if I could get a stamp from the local constabulary. However, I always use AirBnB to stay, and the reservation email and the mobile app might be far more reliable than a random hotel reservation document. So, does the AirBnB reservation email work as a proof of staying there? Or is there any better document as a proof of staying (&quot;better&quot;, in terms of ensuring that I don't pay the overstaying penalty)? I will likely leave the Schengen area ultimately from Frankfurt International Airport. I'm playing on a Survival world with cheats on, "easy" difficulty, and at night in-game. I didn't have a sword or anything to make a sword with, and I was starving, so I switched to Creative to give myself a stack of food and a bed to set my spawn point. When I switched back to Survival, I couldn't destroy or place blocks. I'm on single player, and my Internet is fine, and I can destroy blocks still if I switch to creative. I've tried resetting the button one, and reloading the map, and it still doesn't work. I've even tried deleting everything I gave myself in Creative. This happened before on a different world and I ended up deleting it.  This only happens on this world. How do I fix it?  If I know I'm in the correct game mode, what else can cause this?  Are there different causes in multiplayer? The title says it all, just wondered if accessing the iOS will count towards your consecutive visited days. Is it possible to create image data and save to a file from a script I'm currently trying to extract textures from a binary file, and ideally I'd like to save each texture to a file or embed in the .blend file. However, before saving an image, I need to be able to create an image in memory from an array of pixel data.  The PIL library contains the kinds of functions I need to use, but it is not included with Blender. Is there anything similar to PIL in Blender? bpy.ops.image seems to be close to what I need, but lacks necessary pixel set/manipulation functions. How to repeat currently typed in parameter on bash console? I was just typing something along the lines of:  mv foo/bar/poit/zoid/narf.txt   and suddenly realized, damn, I have to type large parts of that parameter again  mv foo/bar/poit/zoid/narf.txt foo/bar/poit/zoid/troz.txt   Even with tabcompletion, quite a pain. I know I can copy paste the parameter by mouse-selecting the text and middleclick but that is not good enough. I want to remain on the keyboard.  So is there a way to copy paste the current parameter of the line using the keyboard?
