probbaly a bug somewhere, but there's a lot of sports related questions popping up on SO, getting voted down real fast and disappearing. probably a glitch in some other stackexchange site? (for example, see )
Is something wrong with StackOverflow's spam filter? Recently there have been huge numbers of spam topics related to football streaming. They have all been spam flagged and deleted but there are more getting posted all the time, I just flagged another 6 or so a few minutes ago. This has been going on for around 3 days now with these topics getting constantly posted over and over again in the  tag.
I'm a student who uses the laptop all the time and I have a problem with Wifi on the laptop. I don't really know what it is. I can describe the problem tho. For example, i closed my laptop last night, so it goes in suspend mode. I turn it on this morning and my wifi doesn't want to connect until I restart the laptop. It says that it's connecting and in Wifi settings the circle animation is spinning, turning Wifi off and on doesn't do anything. Here's what happens when I check to see my network info: sudo lshw -C network   *-network                         description: Wireless interface        product: Wireless 3160        vendor: Intel Corporation        physical id: 0        bus info: pci@0000:02:00.0        logical name: wlp2s0        version: 83        serial: 00:1e:64:e6:1c:93        width: 64 bits        clock: 33MHz        capabilities: pm msi pciexpress bus_master cap_list ethernet physical wireless        configuration: broadcast=yes driver=iwlwifi driverversion=5.4.0-52-generic firmware=17.3216344376.0 ip=192.168.0.14 latency=0 link=yes multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11        resources: irq:129 memory:df100000-df101fff   *-network        description: Ethernet interface        product: RTL810xE PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller        vendor: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.        physical id: 0        bus info: pci@0000:03:00.0        logical name: enp3s0        version: 07        serial: f8:ca:b8:52:72:49        capacity: 100Mbit/s        width: 64 bits        clock: 33MHz        capabilities: pm msi pciexpress msix vpd bus_master cap_list ethernet physical tp mii 10bt 10bt-fd 100bt 100bt-fd autonegotiation        configuration: autonegotiation=on broadcast=yes driver=r8169 firmware=rtl8106e-1_0.0.1 06/29/12 latency=0 link=no multicast=yes port=MII        resources: irq:17 ioport:d000(size=256) memory:df000000-df000fff memory:d0000000-d0003fff  Also I have to mention that my Linux is doublebooted alongside Windows 10, but I don't think that makes any difference.

What are the steps to install the Spelling Check and other language supports for LibreOffice. For example spanish, french, italian, etc.. Auto-incrementing field in feature class using ArcGIS Desktop? So I'm relatively new to ArcGIS and ArcCatalog.  I have created a field name of PROJECTID in a feature class in a Personal Geodatabase.  The data type is TEXT.  This will be a ten digit ID.  The first five characters will be a acronym.  The sixth character will be a digit that represents the type of feature.  It will be a number.  The last four characters will be numbers that should be incremented starting at 0001.    Example:     WATER-1-0001  Screen shot of the field:   So my question is how can I do this in ArcCatalog.  I've seen some Python code that will autoincrement like the following:  rec=[OBJECTID] def autoIncrement(a):   global rec   return "water" + str(a) + "-" +  format(rec, '04d')   Again I'm a newbie when it comes to ArcGIS . Now I am getting an error NameError name 'OBJECTID' is not defined. Is the ArcGIS Server JavaScript API free to use? The 2008  announcing the ArcGIS Server JS API says:     Everyone can use the ArcGIS JavaScript API. There is no fee for using the ArcGIS JavaScript API or deploying an application built with it.   But Esri's  page says "Contact us for pricing".  Which is correct? Entity Framework and SQL Server View Mathematics needed for string theory I'm interested in cutting edge string theory studied by research physicist. I'm wonder what  mathematics is needed and how far am I in terms of mathematics background needed and how much more mathematics do I need in order to study it properly and reach my goal. My mathematics level is at calculus/Linear algebra. Correctness of questions without inversion, relying on intonation Evaluate $\lim_{x\rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin (6x)}{\sin(2x)}$ without L'Hopital I am using MikTex 2.9 and TeXstudio for my TeX preparation. I would like to set the path to my figures folder, which contains all the figures, plots etc. required for my work.   I used \graphicspath to set the directory, but it gives me an error message:  \documentclass[12pt]{article}  \usepackage{graphicx}  \graphicspath{D:/LATEX/Reports@IIT/figures}  \begin{document} \includegraphics[width=4.5cm,height=4cm,angle=0]{logo.jpg}  \end{document}      Error: Package pdftex.def Error: File `logo.jpg' not found   However, when I prepend the filenames of the images with the same path in the \includegraphics command, it works just fine:  \documentclass[12pt]{article}  \usepackage{graphicx}  \begin{document}  \includegraphics[width=4.5cm,height=4cm,angle=0]{D:/LATEX/Reports@IIT/figures/logo.jpg}  \end{document}   Why is \graphicspath not setting the path? Windows 10, 'System' process taking massive amounts of RAM Since I upgraded to Windows 10, my system has been consuming RAM excessively    I've been reading a bit and determined it's likely a driver leaking memory. So I got myself the Windows Driver Kit and tracked memory usage with poolmon:    However, I don't really know how to proceed from here. Is the item tagged "smNp" the culprit in this issue? How do I go from there to actually identifying the driver?  I tried some stuff like "C:\Windows\System32\drivers>findstr /s smnp ." but it returned no results. I also took a look at the pooltag.txt file and this is the description I found for it:      So yeah, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. "I think him to be about 50" or "I think he is about 50"? I recently installed Ubuntu Server edition 13.10 (Saucy Salamander). But I have run into a bit of problem. At the end of the installation, it asks about several extra packages whether you want them or not, like OpenSSH server and virtual machine host. Here's what I'm looking at:  Now, my problem is that I can't remember if I have checked the &quot;virtual machine host&quot; checkbox. How do I check if my server has the corresponding packages? What packages come with the virtual machine host? How do I draw the graph of inequalities in the coordinate plane? I want to graph the following inequalities (done in desmos) in latex. I need the code. What do the various dpkg flags like 'ii' 'rc' mean? I frequently need to check which packages are installed, and I use the following command:  dpkg -l | grep foo  which gives the following output  Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Cfg-files/Unpacked/Failed-cfg/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name                       Version         Description ii   foo                       &lt;version&gt;         &lt;description&gt;    What does the ii mean?  What other flags are there? How to read the flags? (because the explanation is quite complicated, IMO)   Thanks. How to use induction to prove the product rule for higher derivatives? How do I show through mathematical induction that   \begin{equation} \frac{d^n}{dx^n}[f(x)\cdot g(x)] = \sum_{k = 0}^{n} \binom{n}{k} \frac{d^k}{dx^k} [f(x)] \cdot \frac{d^{n-k}}{dx^{n-k}} [g(x)] \end{equation}  which is the product rule for higher derivatives? Why doesn't the command "ls | file" work? I've been studying about the command line and learned that | (pipeline) is meant to redirect the output from a command to the input of another one. So why does the command ls | file doesn't work?  file input is one of more filenames, like file filename1 filename2  ls output is a list of directories and files on a folder, so I thought ls | file was supposed to show the file type of every file on a folder.  When I use it however, the output is:      Usage: file [-bcEhikLlNnprsvz0] [--apple] [--mime-encoding] [--mime-type]         [-e testname] [-F separator] [-f namefile] [-m magicfiles] file ...     file -C [-m magicfiles]     file [--help]   As there was some error with the usage of the file command Are all algebraic integers with absolute value 1 roots of unity? Where is attribute table in ArcGIS Desktop when not visible? I've just updated to ArcGIS 10.1 for Desktop and when I go to open an attribute table, I can not see it anywhere.   I'm wondering if it is off my screen somewhere or if its just super tiny that I can't see it.   I'm using dual monitors and it's not popping up on either.  Is there a way I can find my attribute table? What is the relative speed of two near-light speed particles headed towards each other? I understand that nothing can move faster than light due to time dilation. I want to build upon my understanding of Einstein's theory of Special Relativity, so I came up with this hypothetical problem for myself:  If both particles are moving at 0.9c towards each other (according to an observer on Earth), what speed does each particle have relative to the other?  I'm stumped since I am only familiar with Newtonian classical mechanics to solve this (which would be wrong). I am aware of Lorentz' factor $\gamma =\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2}}}$ and the time dilation equation $t_m = \frac{t_o}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2}}}$, but I'm not sure how to apply it in this instance. I'm just looking for a gentle push in the right direction. Edit: My prior research:  This article, ,  talks about the effect of a baseball thrown at 0.9c would have as it traveled towards a batter. This is not what I'm looking for since it doesn't explain the math behind finding the collision speed between two high velocity entities.  This question on Yahoo, , asks a similar question to mine, but no math is involved to demonstrate the calculations behind the reasoning.  This question on Physics.SE, , does not answer my question either. I have not been able to find a similar Physics.SE question which can provide me to clues to my own hypothetical question.  I have also Googled the following phrases:    i. &quot;collision faster than the speed of light&quot; ii. &quot;collision of high speed particles&quot; iii. &quot;lorentz transformation in a collision&quot; iv. &quot;collision analysis at light speed&quot; Restoring MySQL database from physical files Is it possible to restore a MySQL database from the physical database files. I have a directory that has the following file types:  client.frm client.MYD client.MYI    but for about 20 more tables.  I usually use mysqldump or a similar tool to get everything in 1 SQL file so what is the way to deal with these types of files?
