I am using Kile to write latex documents. I want to include .svg picture in my document. After including   \usepackage{svg}    and compiling my document into pdf, I have an error:   "File 'svg.sty' not found. \usepackage "   So I downloaded package svg from ftp.tex.ac.uk but I don't know how to install it. I tried to use package manager, but it didn't see this as a package.  Can someone suggest me how can I do that?
I'm trying to compile a document that only works with an up-to-date distribution, so I'd like to know: how do I update my distribution? Please provide screenshots where appropriate.

How to make a spiked sphere? I know how to make it manually with cone rotation around the sphere. but maybe there's much simpler solution or addon that has that option, preferably not very high poly solution.  Also if possible I would like the spikes not to be very pointy if that makes any sense      Thanks Add a property to a JavaScript object using a variable as the name? I'm pulling items out of the DOM with jQuery and want to set a property on an object using the id of the DOM element.   Example  const obj = {}  jQuery(itemsFromDom).each(function() {   const element = jQuery(this)   const name = element.attr('id')   const value = element.attr('value')    // Here is the problem   obj.name = value })   If itemsFromDom includes an element with an id of "myId", I want obj to have a property named "myId". The above gives me name.  How do I name a property of an object using a variable using JavaScript? Accourding to ,   We often use "been to" when we refer to completed visits to a place:  Have you ever been to Budapest?  Not: Have you ever gone to Budapest?  If the visit is not complete, we use "gone to".  Joan’s just gone to the shop. She’ll be back in about ten minutes. (Joan has not yet returned from the shop.)  Joan’s just been to the shop. She bought some cakes. Would you like one? (Joan has returned from the shop.)  Now, does that rule apply to the  "Have been on a trip" &amp; "Have gone on a trip"?  So, "I have been on a trip" (I completed the trip &amp; currently I am staying at home)  "I have gone on a trip" (I haven't completed the trip &amp; currently I am on the trip)  And what about "gone crazy" &amp; "been crazy".  Does "He has gone crazy" mean now he is still crazy?  Does "He has been crazy" mean now he is not crazy any more?  Are there any differences between "Have been on a trip" vs "Have gone on a trip" and "Have been crazy" vs "Have gone crazy"?  Note: I am not asking about "been to" or "gone to". I am asking about "been on a trip" &amp; "gone on a trip". Do we apply the same rule of "been to" or "gone to" to "been on a trip" &amp; "gone on a trip"?  Note2:  seems to prove that my thinking is right. Update Garmin Nüvi 255 maps Where can I find the source code for the Ubuntu Kernel? I'd like to build my own copy of the Ubuntu kernel. Where can I get the source code? There seems to be a preference for to have the    18 mm - 55 mm 55 mm - 250 mm   lenses, but no mention of why they're better than a single 18-200mm. Could someone please explain why the two separate are better than the one combined, and if anyone has quantified this difference?  (I'm curious about Canon in particular.) "Please do not repeat the mistake" and "Please do not repeat the mistake again" Please do not repeat the mistake. Please do not repeat the mistake again.  Should the again be omitted? “Repeat” means “do again”. So to “repeat again” means “to do again again”. Is the second sentence grammatically wrong? How to calculate $f(x)$ in $f(f(x)) = e^x$? How would I calculate the power series of $f(x)$ if $f(f(x)) = e^x$?  Is there a faster-converging method than power series for fractional iteration/functional square roots? URLs: Should I use hyphens, underscores or plus symbols? Which is better for search engines?   example.com/my_cool_page.html example.com/my-cool-page.html  example.com/my+cool+page.html Is it possible to programmatically change connectedApp settings in production? Background: I have a requirement to make it so that an SFDC connected app defaults/is super easy to set to Admin Users are Pre-authorized instead of All users may self-authorize. This setting is important to make this app work and we have historically have had problems with admins not configuring this setting correctly.  Here is a quick history on what I have tried to do to get the isAdminApproved set to "true":   Directly, via xml definition (doesn't get honored) Directly via apex code (doesn't get honored)  (ended up being more pain than what it was worth and was told that it wouldn't work in prod because of security restrictions) Indirectly via a connected-app connected service to make a metadata API call: works in a scratch org but not in prod, which I assume is because it is a managed package. This would occur when an Admin clicks on a button, not from a post-install script.   Details on what I mean by it isn't working in prod: When I try to do a readMetadata call on my connectedApp objects that are in my managed package, the response comes back as [{\n    'fullName': None\n}] instead of with the metadata configuration of my connected app.  Here is a sequence diagram of what I am trying to do in #4 right now:    My question is this: Am I on a fool's errand, where this is impossible to do? ...Or is there a way to set a connected app (in a managed package that I publish) to Admin Users are Pre-authorized without making the admin just do it themselves directly in the settings? GRUB Help and Reinstalling Ubuntu Recently, I installed Ubuntu 10 Netbook edition (on my netbook, yes, obvious). My battery died literally, while I was using Ubuntu.   Now, when I restart the computer, it seems that GRUB has duplicated all of the entries in the MBR that pertain to the partition that houses my Ubuntu install. For example:  Ubuntu ... Ubuntu ... (Recovery Mode) Ubuntu ... Ubuntu ... (Recovery Mode) Memtest ... Memtest ... Windows (Vista loader) Windows (Windows 7 starter loader)    When I try to access either of the two Ubuntu instances in the boot loader it presents me with an error akin to this:   ...numbers... Kernel panic ... VFS unable to mount...   What I would like to do is:  Wipe out grub, and Ubuntu, and then reinstall Ubuntu (I really only use it for emacs and ess for R so there's nothing in the home directory that I need to backup)  How would I go about "resetting" my system? Or fixing the issue that I have.   Thanks in advance!   BEB I'd like to create a LaTeX document that when rendered into PDF, has forms that can be filled out using Adobe Reader or other such programs. Then I'd like to be able to extract the data. I deliberately would like to avoid using Acrobat for all the usual reasons (non-free, need different versions for different platforms etc).   Can this be done ? A question about the idea of Laplace transform In Laplace integral transform equation one multiplies the function $f(t)$ by $e^{-st}$. I read in many tutorials that $e^{-st}$ decays much faster than any other function so the integral diverges.  But what I don't understand what makes one to think to multiply a function with  $e^{-st}$ to transform it in $s$ domain? What is the motivation behind it? Why would you suddenly come up with an idea as such: "Oh there is a function $f(t)$ in time domain what can I do to transform it to complex freq. ($s$) domain? Hmm let me multiply it with $e^{-st}$ and integrate it from zero to infinity" What would have motivated this idea of multiplying and integrating for transformation? Adding feature class to Map in CURRENT project using ArcPy in ArcGIS Pro? polynomial converges uniformily to analytic function I have been around on Twitter for awhile and I regularly find people using "Please to retweet this" or "Please to help me", etc. Is this proper English? I do not think prefixing the infinitive form with a 'to' is necessary here at all. QGIS locked into fullscreen mode on Ubuntu 12.04 No crash in this case, but I made the mistake of toggling to fullscreen mode on my netbook running Ubuntu 12.04. It's now impossible to escape , and it seems to have disabled the popout unity launcher as well. Steps I've already taken:   Alt-Tab to move to a different program, then back - QGIS remains in fullscreen Alt-V, Ctrl-F and F11 get no response I've unistalled QGIS, deleted the /.qgis/ profile data folder, and reinstalled. Still launches fullscreen   To add to the weirdness, it now launches - still in fullscreen - into a different workspace than the active one.  I realize this has the sound of a Unity problem, but it's just this program that has a malfunctioning UI.  Thanks to all the crew; this in no way changes my opinion of QGIS as an essential tool. Activate Field Service Lightning feature in a Salesforce DX scratch org? I am struggling to figure out how to -- or if it's even possible to -- create a DX scratch org with the "Field Service Lightning" (FSL) feature installed. Based on the feature list  I'm guessing the answer is no and I'll just have to wait. But I'm not sure I'm interpreting that source correctly or missing something entirely since I'm just wrapping my head around DX.   Background: we have a production org with FSL installed and active, along with it's accompanying managed packages. I can create sandboxes from it and do development using standard Metadata API tools, but I was hoping to start a new project using DX. But I'm stuck configuring a scratch org with the proper features. What is the difference between '->' (arrow operator) and '.' (dot operator) in Objective-C? Hello Physics StackExchange!  I will put the TL;DR in the beginning: I need a self contained, relatively hand-holding sequence of textbooks that covers up from the end of Griffith's Intro to QM to relativistic QM/particle physics to QFT.    This will be my first post. I'm a medical physics grad student who majored in biomedical engineering for my undergrad, with serious regrets about not doing math/physics double major in hindsight. Oh well. I've made it my goal to eventually understand QFT.  My background in relevant subjects is Calc 1 to 3 and Diff EQ, 2 part freshman physics, an E&amp;M course that used Griffiths Electrodynamics, a summer of self studying Griffith's QM (got most of the way through). I will also be officially taking a class in QM using Griffith's textbook this next spring. I am aware of the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian approaches to mechanics as well. In addition I have familiarity with special and basic general relativity using tensors and all this. What would be the best way for me to get from where I am now to a strong understanding of QFT autodidactically? I have no aversion to studying pure maths where I need to.  EDIT: My question is much different than simply asking for a handholding explanation of QFT. Generally these textbooks assume a certain amount of physics/math background, and I was asking for a sequence of textbooks leading up to QFT from the end of a specific textbook, Griffith's QM. Did you even read my question? Did you read the thing you linked me to?
