I have windows 10 installed currently on my C drive. I want to install ubuntu on it replacing windows 10. How can I do that properly? Aslo, If I formate and install on it, will it make any changes to my data in other drives?
I'm absolutely new to Linux. I would like to know how to install Ubuntu alongside the pre-installed Windows 8+ OS.  Should I do it with Wubi, or through the Live USB/DVD?  What steps do I need to take to correctly install Ubuntu?
Badge Notification Repeats BibTeX bibliography not printing I was unable to find a previous post about this - perhaps too simple? I just came across the BibTeX and am trying to use it with an EndNote library. I have exported to the .bib file (which looks good as far as I can tell), but no bibliography is printed and the references aren't being cited. Obviously there is something major missing.  My document looks as follows.  \documentclass[11pt, fceqn]{article} \usepackage{epsfig} \usepackage{setspace, titlesec, caption, floatrow}    \usepackage{amsmath, amssymb, amsfonts, amsthm, cite, mathtools, lineno, subfig, natbib}  \begin{document}   Some text \cite{Alo_1}.  \bibliography{bib} \bibliographystyle{plain}  \end{document}   Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Why is the Java plugin (JRE) disabled in Chrome? Another meta question identified a bug that was marked as designed. To summarize the bug, the little number that appears next the Review link in the header shows an incorrect value most of the time.         I would like to propose that the feature be dropped. Honestly, I would prefer it be fixed, but the response to the question above gives me little faith that it will be. Half of the time, I click that little brown box and find out that I was lied to. There's nothing to review.  The little number no longer does the job it was created to do.        Oh sweet! Three things I can review!        Just kidding... Does an unpublished document you upload to ResearchGate count as prior publication when submitting to a journal? On ResearchGate, if you upload something like a thesis, and then it says publish resources, does this mean the thesis becomes properly published in the sense of the usual requirements of journals that there be no prior publication of the submitted work?   I ask because I’m drafting thesis chapters into journal articles and did not choose to publish the thesis as a whole work in order to do so, so I want to make sure that by clicking publish resources I am not actually publishing the copy I’ve uploaded, I’m just making it publicly available? Does this mean it becomes published despite it not technically being a published work? (If so, I’ll just remove the copy I uploaded). Calibre No Longer Working Calibre stopped working recently. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling. When I open a terminal and call $calibre I get the following error message: Traceback (most recent call last):   File &quot;/usr/bin/calibre&quot;, line 20, in &lt;module&gt;     sys.exit(calibre())   File &quot;/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui_launch.py&quot;, line 73, in calibre     main(args)   File &quot;/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py&quot;, line 543, in main     listener = create_listener()   File &quot;/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/gui2/main.py&quot;, line 514, in create_listener     return Listener(address=gui_socket_address())   File &quot;/usr/lib/calibre/calibre/utils/ipc/server.py&quot;, line 110, in __init__     self._listener._unlink.cancel() AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'cancel'  Do I need to install some dependency that the sudo apt install didn't get? I tried installing via command line and the software installer/updater GUI. I'm on version Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS. I made sure that my software in general is up to date also. Solution check: Let $f_n$ be fibonacci numbers. Prove: $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} \binom{n+k}{2k+1} = f_{2n-1}$ and $\sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n+k}{2k} = f_{2n}$ This is all in iTerm2 on OS X.  I used to have  export TERM='xterm-256color'   in my .bashrc. This meant Vim in tmux did use 256 colors.  And once I added  set -g xterm-keys on   then keyboard shortcuts with modifiers worked fine in Vim. Namely: shift+left/right that I mapped to switch Vim tabs, ctrl+up/down that I mapped to move ("bubble") lines, and shift+left/right which worked out of the box to jump by word in the command-line mode (e.g. when typing something like :e foo bar baz).  However, this setup had the problem that the Vim background color only shows behind text, as mentioned .  So I removed  export TERM='xterm-256color'   from my .bashrc and instead put this in my .tmux.conf:  set -g default-terminal "screen-256color"   That fixed the Vim background color, but broke the keyboard shortcuts - they do unexpected things (move the cursor, delete text) instead.  By using ctrl+v to insert the verbatim output from the key combinations (as described ), I was able to work around it:  map [1;5A &lt;C-Up&gt; map [1;5B &lt;C-Down&gt; map [1;2D &lt;S-Left&gt; map [1;2C &lt;S-Right&gt; cmap [1;2D &lt;S-Left&gt; cmap [1;2C &lt;S-Right&gt;   This makes the shortcuts work, but it doesn't feel like the right solution. Could anyone tell me what's happening here and how to fix it? Vito and Luca question Proof of this fairly obscure differentiation trick? Suppose we're tying to differentiate the function $f(x)=x^x$. Now the textbook method would be to notice that $f(x)=e^{x \log{x}}$ and use the chain rule to find $$f'(x)=(1+\log{x})\ e^{x \log{x}}=(1+\log{x})\ x^x.$$  But suppose that I didn't make this observation and instead tried to apply the following differentiation rules:  $$\frac{d}{dx}x^c=cx^{c-1} \qquad (1)\\ \frac{d}{dx}c^x = \log{c}\ \cdot c^x \quad (2)$$  which are valid for any constant $c$. Obviously neither rules are applicable to the form $x^x$ because in this case neither the base nor the exponent are constant. But if I pretend that the exponent is constant and apply rule $(1)$, I would get $f'(x)\stackrel{?}{=}x\cdot x^{x-1}=x^x.$ Likewise, if I pretend that the base is constant and apply rule $(2)$ I obtain $f'(x)\stackrel{?}{=}\log{x}\cdot x^x$.  It isn't hard to see that neither of the derivatives are correct. But here's where the magic happens: if we sum the two “derivatives” we end up with $$x^x+ \log{x}\cdot x^x=(1+\log{x})\ x^x$$ which is the correct expression for $f'(x)$.  This same trick yields correct results in other contexts as well. In fact, in some cases it turns out to be a more efficient way of taking derivatives. For example, consider $$g(x)=x^2 = \color{blue} x\cdot \color{red} x.$$ If we pretend the blue $\color{blue} x$ is a constant we would get $g'(x)\stackrel{?}{=}\color{blue}x\cdot 1=x$. Now if we pretend the red $\color{red}x$ is constant we get $g'(x)\stackrel{?}{=}1\cdot \color{red} x=x$. Summing both expressions we end up with $2x$ which is of course a correct expression for the derivative.  These observations have led me to the following conjecture:     Let $f(x,y)$ be a differentiable function mapping $\mathbb{R}^2$ to $\mathbb{R}.$ Let $f'_1 (x,y)=\frac{\partial}{\partial x} f(x,y)$ and $f'_2 (x,y)=\frac{\partial}{\partial y} f(x,y)$. Then for any $t$ we have: $$\frac{d}{dt}f(t,t)=f'_1 (t,t) + f'_2 (t,t).$$   (I apologise for the somewhat awkward notation which I could not seem to get around without causing undue ambiguity.)  This formulation also seems to lend itself to following generalisation:     Let $f:\mathbb{R}^N \to \mathbb{R}$ be a function differentiable in each of its variables $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_N$. For $n=1,2,\ldots,N$ define $f'_n(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_N)=\frac{\partial}{\partial x_n}f(x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_N)$. Let $t$ be any real number and define the $N$-tuple $T=(t,t,\ldots,t)$. Then one has: $$\frac{d}{dt} f(T)=\sum_n f'_n(T).$$   Thus my question is:   Is this true? How can it be proven? (Specifically in the case $N=2$ but also in the general case.) Im creating a community user from an Apex code. When our internal users (non-admins) run the code they are getting following error.

I've found some solutions but they simply don't work or behave really weird. The best solution would be a jquery plugin that can do the work - something like , but it should be able to limit text line count not character count. How to cite own unpublished work in text and reference? I would like to cite one of my own unpublished work (under review). Is it okay to cite as following?  In text According to author et al. (year of submission)................. In reference authors list, year of submission, title, name of the Journal (status)   How about the results?   How will the reviewer access those results cited here?   Is it okay to provide them as supplements?   If I provide couple of figures as supplements, whether it will violate the copyright of the under reviewed paper? Is there a difference between "==" and "is"? How can we recover the Newtonian gravitational potential from the metric of general relativity? The Newtonian description of gravity can be formulated in terms of a potential function $\phi$ whose partial derivatives give the acceleration:  $$\frac{d^2\vec{x}}{dt^2}=\vec{g}=-\vec{\nabla}\phi(x)=\left(\frac{\partial\phi}{\partial x}\hat{x}+\frac{\partial\phi}{\partial y}\hat{y}+\frac{\partial\phi}{\partial z}\hat{z}\right)$$  However, in general relativity, we describe gravity by means of the metric. This description is radically different from the Newtonian one, and I don't see how we can recover the latter from the former. Could someone explain how we can obtain the Newtonian potential from general relativity, starting from the metric $g_{\mu\nu}$? implementing a shell in C How to block sites with iptables How do I turn off the arrow for desktop icons? What did the public at large know about the assassination attempt on Palpatine and how he survived it? When a/an precedes a parenthetical aside (sometimes seen in informal/conversational writing), should the vowel rule depend on the first word in parentheses, or the next word in the "regular" flow of the sentence?
