When I got my first Android phone (the rugged HTC Inspire), I was told that I should restart the device every week. The rational, which made sense at the time, was that it's a small computer and every computer needs a soft reset, right? Over time, my phone needed it from continual app crashes but it took forever to do so. Overall, it did help to restart  I've recently upgraded to the HTC One and, from what I can tell, I don't need to restart this thing every week. It's run for a couple weeks on end without problems (one app-hangup what wasn't fixed with a restart) and although my usage isn't intensive, it's getting heavier.  Is it a good idea to restart my Android device after a certain period of time or does it not do anything at all. I'm not so much worried about harming the device but just keeping all of my info current without needing to open up half-dozen apps every time.  EDIT: Sorry if this comes as a duplicate question. I tried looking around for other answers but my particular question related to normal/periodic rebooting not related to a slow-down of the OS or other apps. Most questions regarding rebooting of an Android device revolved around either a slow OS or apps hanging and not necessarily answering my question.
I've had my HTC Desire for a couple of months now and it is awesome! (A huge improvement to my previous phone... Nokia 3315)  Though recently, I've realised that the phone semi-freezes more and more often - ie. when swiping between homescreens it will either pause/freeze and I will have to re-swipe to get it to change screens. Or worse, it just won't respond to any further swipes and I have to lock the screen then unlock to get the phone back into action.  Got quite annoyed at this (was probably happening once or twice a day) so I thought it might help to turn it off and on again. So I did - not sure if it was a placebo effect but it seems to have helped a bit?  So given that this is my first smartphone, I was wondering if it is 'normal' to need to restart the phone every so often. If so, how often is 'normal'? If not, what can I do to diagnose/fix this problem?
After the upgrade of salesforce to Spring 15, I am getting this error "Error: You have exceeded the maximum number (5) of Apex scheduled jobs." when scheduling more than 5 batches. I have this issue in several environment. I used to more than 20 batches scheduled at once.   On the link below, it says that I can schedule up to 100 batches but I am being restricted to 5 only.   I can't have more than 5 jobs here. Available US State or National business (or employer) database lists? This question dovetails with this post on .  I am familiar with some of larger, paid-for business registry's like  and .  While the detailed information their business listings database include (like # of employees, annual sales, industry code, etc) is fantastic, if you are on a limited budget, sometimes the cost of purchasing the data outweighs the value you can get from it.  If you have geocoding capabilities in house, one could potentially create a reasonable surrogate by spatially-enabling (geocoding) a publicly available business listing on your own.    If you were looking to take on this type of project, where would you start your research? Do you know of US agencies at a State or National level that maintain this type of information, AND are publicly available for download or minimal purchase? A gerund or use a regular noun? Which of these is correct or more natural?        One of my greatest strengths is critically analyzing.      One of my greatest strengths is critical analyzing.

Find all pairs $(p,n)$ of positive integers where $p$ is prime and $p^3-p=n^7-n^3$.   Rewriting the given equation as $p(p+1)(p-1)=n^3(n^2+1)(n+1)(n-1)$, we see that $p$ must divide one of the factors $n,n+1,n-1,n^2+1$ on the $\text{r.h.s}$.   Now, the $\text{l.h.s}$ is an increasing function of $p$ for $p\ge1$. This implies that for any given $n\ge1$, there is exactly one real $p$ for which $\text{l.h.s}=\text{r.h.s}$. For $p=n^2$, we get $\text{l.h.s}=n^6-n^2&lt;n^7-n^3=\text{r.h.s}.$ This means that either $p&gt;n^2$ or $p&lt;n^2$ must hold.  Assuming $p&gt;n^2$, it follows that the prime $p$ cannot divide any of $n,n+1,n-1$. So $p$ must divide $n^2+1$ and hence $p=n^2+1\quad (\because p&gt;n^2)$.  Substituting the value of $p$ in the given equation we get, $n^2+2=n^3-n\implies n^3-n^2-n=2$. As the factor $n$ on the $\text{l.h.s}$ must divide $2$, the above equation has a unique integer solution $n=2$.  Finally, we get $(5,2)$ as the solution to the given equation.      But how do I conclude this is the only solution possible? Also, why does'nt $p&lt;n^2$ (the case which I ignored) hold? As a bonus question, I would like to ask for any alternative/elegant solution (possibly using congruence relations) to the problem. How can I show that $x+y=z$ in the figure without using trigonometry? I have tried to solve it with analytic geometry, but it doesn't work out for me. $f \in {\mathscr R[a,b]} \implies f $ has infinitely many points of continuity.

Anamorphic Perspective in Illustrator or Photoshop? What are the dangers of accepting gifts from unknown accounts on Steam? A user named 'steamfairy1' gifted me a game on Steam. I don't know this user, their profile shows no games, no friends and zero hours played. The profile of 'steamfairy1' was created the day I received the gift.  It very much looks like a scam, but I can't figure out how the scam is supposed to work. What's the worst thing that could happen if I accept the gift? Any idea what the trick here is? It could be just a random act of kindness and I'm just paranoid…  I contacted the Steam support, but they were unhelpful as usual: responding in the wrong language and with a canned one-liner that didn't make a whole lot of sense or had much to do with my question.

When I mount it under my OSX machine, I can read and write from and to it.   When I mount the drive in ubuntu, using:  sudo mount -t cifs -o username=${USER},password=${PASSWORD} //server-address/folder /mount/path/on/ubuntu   I am not able to write to the network drive, but I can read from it. I have checked the permissions and owner of the mount folder, they look like:  4.0K drwxr-xr-x  4 root root    0 Nov 12  2010 Mounted_folder   I cannot change the owner, because I get the error:  chown: changing ownership of `/Volumes/Mounted_folder': Not a directory   When I descend deeper into the network drive, and change the ownership there, I get the error that I have no permission to change the folder´s owner.  What should I do to activate my write permission? Should you use a plural verb if you refer to a fraction?     Nine tenths of the pillar have rotted away.   I think has should be used here, but I'm not sure. I have a script that does a number of different things, most of which do not require any special privileges. However, one specific section, which I have contained within a function, needs root privileges.  I don't wish to require the entire script to run as root, and I want to be able to call this function, with root privileges, from within the script. Prompting for a password if necessary isn't an issue since it is mostly interactive anyway. However, when I try to use sudo functionx, I get:  sudo: functionx: command not found   As I expected, export didn't make a difference. I'd like to be able to execute the function directly in the script rather than breaking it out and executing it as a separate script for a number of reasons.  Is there some way I can make my function "visible" to sudo without extracting it, finding the appropriate directory, and then executing it as a stand-alone script?  The function is about a page long itself and contains multiple strings, some double-quoted and some single-quoted. It is also dependent upon a menu function defined elsewhere in the main script.  I would only expect someone with sudo ANY to be able to run the function, as one of the things it does is change passwords. What is the difference between shell, console, and terminal? How to use both binary and continuous variables together in clustering? I need to use binary variables (values 0 &amp; 1) in k-means. But k-means only works with continuous variables. I know some people still use these binary variables in k-means ignoring the fact that k-means is only designed for continuous variables. This is unacceptable to me.  Questions:     So what is the statistically / mathematically correct way of using binary variables in k-means / hierarchical clustering? How to implement the solution in SAS / R? How do I enable or disable the global application menu? I'm fairly excited for Unity, as it looks like a promising new direction for Ubuntu.  However, I do have a concern - will it be possible to use Unity without the global menu?  I have my window manager set to focus-follows-mouse/sloppy focus, and find the productivity gains to be immense. Sloppy focus is incompatible, however, with global menus, as it is possible for the focus to change while you move from window to menu.  Will Unity support an option to use window menus while still using Unity?
