I have tried GIMP and the tool I am looking for is not in it. I have looked into paint.mono but have no clue on how to install it. I just need an art program with a simple Curve tool, where draws a curve through specified multiple points.
Does anyone know of a simple Image Editor, with functionality comparable to ,  for Ubuntu?  I've always found GIMP to be overkill and too complicated for what I want to do.
Prove that  $ n &lt; 2^{n}  $ for all natural numbers $n$.  I tried this with induction: Inequality clearly holds when $n=1$. Supposing that when $n=k$, $k&lt;2^{k}$. Considering $k+1 &lt;2^{k}+1$, but where do I go from here?  Any other methods maybe? Definition of Significant Figures In my textbooks,  are defined as:   “Significant figures by definition are the reliable digits in a number that are known with certainty.”  “A significant figure is the one which is known to be reasonably reliable.”    Reliable means giving the same result on successive trials or reliable information can be trusted to be accurate. However, at the end of each of the two definitions it is also written that ‘the last digit of a number is generally considered uncertain in the absence of qualifying information.' For example if the mass of an object is 12.248 gm, the last digit which is ‘8’ is uncertain by plus or minus 0.001 gm. This uncertainty is unreliability in the information. So, the digit ‘8’ is uncertain, and thus according to the definition 1 it is not a significant figure. However, the rules for significant figures say that ‘non-zero digits are all significant’. Due to the last digit ‘8’, if the object was weighed with careful handling minimizing the chances of error, the figures preceding ‘8’ that are (1, 2, 2, 4) are certain and reliable. If the mass of another object is 2 gm, then it is uncertain by plus or minus 1 gm i.e. its mass could be 3 gm or could be 1 gm.  ‘2’ is therefore not certain! What is the reason that significant figures are defined to be the reliable digits in a number? In what sense they are said to be reliable? iPhone 7 Plus takes days to turn on showing Apple logo or black screen I’ve had this issue for months but in the last couple of days it’s got very very bad.  When my phone runs out of battery it needs like 2–3 days to turn back on. At the beginning of this problem the phone would need about 1h. Every time when my phone goes off again the time to switching on goes up.  What does this all look like? Well, when my phone died I put it on the charger, then the logo appears and goes off. When it goes off, a black screen pops out with a little white line on in it, then it turns on back to Apple logo. It keeps doing this until it turns on which is 1 or 2 even now 3 days.  I tried to restore it and also update it but nothing happens, literally nothing happened. I saw this bug mentioned in image below, where in I was about to mark the question as duplicate..

Can we do something about this...?? Expressing $1.24\overline{123}=1.24\;123\;123\;123\;\ldots$ as the ratio of two integers Is there any danger to letting food cook in a slow cooker for a very long time? I've recently started using a slow cooker and I was thinking about recipes that could be cooked for days.  My main concern is if there are any side effects for leaving food cooking for days that would make this plan unfeasible (dangerous to try).  Since it is at cooking temperature, there wouldn't be any reason to worry about bacteria growing on the food.  Liquid would be lost over time, which could result in burning if left unchecked, but if I add more every morning/night as needed, that too wouldn't be a problem.  All I can see is that most recipes wouldn't end up tasting as well, but undesirable isn't equal to dangerous.  There just seems to be something absurd with the notion of leaving food cooking for 5 days or even 2 weeks without there being any dangers, but I'm having a hard time figuring out what they would be. Direct "rate in iTunes" link in my app? The thing with these tags is, you can always (or almost always) use a specific product/technology/language tag which would render the company-name tag completely redundant (see Appendix C for sloppy non-proof). For example, what relevant information would  tag add to  already tagged with ? What would  tag add to  already tagged with ? Another way of looking at this: how much useful information do you lose if you don't tag a question with a company name? Note: I'm not talking about brand/company/organizations like , , ,  because those names also refer to websites/web services with which you can interact via API or from which you can extract data. Appendix C: The &quot;about&quot; test The relationship between a tag and a question can be expressed as such  This question is about [tag]  In case of ,  This question is about [microsoft]  Fair enough. But in reality people are using these company-name tags like this  This question is about something developed by or related to [microsoft]  But if that's the case, you might as well just go with  This question is about [something developed by or related to microsoft]  where  can be , , ... you get the idea. Disable flagging on old chat messages In response to the effect  is referring, I am proposing one of two possible scenarios:   Disallow flags on chat messages older than X hours, or Remove old flagged posts from the transcript, but no suspension occurs (as in the aforementioned question). What's the "official" explanation for Harry's (and everyone else's) absence from muggle school? The answer to tactical downvoting problem? As we know, the tactical downvoting (I'm talking especially about SO, as I don't know about other sites) is more and more becoming a serious problem, as I see, the community can't stop this behavior without some sacrificing.  As a suggestion, I think it makes sense to prevent an answerer from downvoting any answer on the same question, this -sure- has a harm, but IMO, it's less harmful than the tactical downvoting issue, and to make the things a bit more easier, we can prevent an answerer from downvoting a question without posting a comment to that answer before.  And vice versa, if a user downvoted an answer, he shouldn't be able to post another one unless he posted a comment first, to prevent working-around that system, so a user can't downvote other answers before posting his own to avoid posting comments.  EDIT, more clarification: I don't say wrong answers shouldn't be downvoted, BUT if you want to downvote an answer and post your own, you'll have to post a comment, so we make sure you're not just downvoting right answers tactically. How to test a confirm dialog with Cucumber? Usage and example of the word “litotes” I've come across the word litotes, which means a rhetorical understatement. However, I’m having trouble understanding how to use it in colloquial English. Could someone please give an example? I am installing Ubuntu 16.04 in an Intel NUC computer with UEFI enabled. I am using an SSD from another computer. During the installation I chose Erase the disk and make a new full install  At the end of the process I see:  grub-efi-amd64-signed failed installation /target/ Ubuntu 16.04    And the system does not boot.  I tried to use boot-repair but apparently it does not solve the problem. Is there an official Marvel Cinematic Universe viewing order? I'm planning on re-watching the currently-released 5 Marvel films prior to seeing The Avengers.  Have Marvel released any sort of official viewing order?  Captain America: The First Avenger seems like the hardest one for me to place in order with the rest.  It takes place prior to the other films, but has the greatest number of references to the other films.  So should it be watched first, or last?  The rest of them are relatively clear, as they're chronological in the order they're released, with the possible exception of The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man 2 happening at the same time. Beamer: change header background color I have decided to switch from Powerpoint to Beamer, and for my first presentation I'd like to use the , and the same colors as in this goggle slide template:  .  I tried to do some research about it, the closest answers I found are the question  and the . I tried this code:  \documentclass{beamer} \usepackage[frenchb]{babel} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  \usetheme{metropolis}  \definecolor{bluegreen}{rgb}{3, 166, 155} \definecolor{pitchblack}{rgb}{0, 0, 0} \definecolor{lightbeige}{rgb}{255, 251, 241} \definecolor{mediumgray}{rgb}{183, 183, 183}  \setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=pitchblack} \setbeamercolor{normal text}{fg=lightbeige} \setbeamercolor{headline}{bg=bluegreen, fg=mediumgray}  \begin{document} \begin{frame}     \frametitle{The title}     Lorem ipsum... \end{frame} \end{document}   I does everything I want, except that the title bar's background color is lightbeige:    What did I do wrong? Or what argument should I pass to \setbeamercolor to get it right? Thanks in advance :-). Why do some questions in question lists have a yellow background? On SO, when I'm scrolling through "questions" some have a yellow background.  Is this intuitive to everyone but me?  What is the yellow background trying to tell me about this particular question? How to change the chapter number to display as text (One, Two, ...)? In LaTeX, how do I change the chapter number to display as text? eg:  CHAPTER ONE not CHAPTER 1;  CHAPTER THIRTEEN not CHAPTER 13. Evaluating $\int P(\sin x, \cos x) \text{d}x$ Suppose $\displaystyle P(x,y)$ a polynomial in the variables $x,y$.   For example, $\displaystyle x^4$ or $\displaystyle x^3y^2 + 3xy + 1$.  Is there a general method which allows us to evaluate the indefinite integral     $$ \int P(\sin x, \cos x) \text{d} x$$   What about the case when $\displaystyle P(x,y)$ is a rational function (i.e. a ratio of two polynomials)?   Example of a rational function: $\displaystyle \frac{x^2y + y^3}{x+y}$.    This is being asked in an effort to cut down on duplicates, see here:   and here: Rotate Geographic map
