I am reporting what I would call a bug in the Close Votes quality check test   By 'Close Votes', I mean the Close Votes page of the Review pages at . By 'quality check test', I mean the Close Votes that have no effect on any question and are simply there to check if a user would select the correct option or not.  I was just reviewing some Close Votes earlier today (which if you ask me, more people need to do) and I came across a question that seemed fine. I was curious as to what reason(s) had been given for the previous Close Vote(s), so I clicked on the Close button to see which option(s) had been selected on the 'Why should this question be closed' popup window.  Instead of seeing which reasons the previous voter(s) had given as usual on the popup window, I got a message telling me that it was a test and I had chosen incorrectly. Now I can take an incorrect decision on my record, because there won't be many others. However, it just seems to me that this message appears too early.  My argument is simple. When we actually vote to close a question, we click on the 'Vote to Close' button in the 'Why should this question be closed' popup window, not on the 'Close' button in the Close Votes page. Furthermore, we can't even click on the 'Vote to Close' button until we have first selected a reason for the Close Vote. So it seems as though reviewers are being judged two clicks too early.     Can the Close Votes quality test occur when we click on the 'Vote to Close' button in the 'Why should this question be closed' popup window and not on the 'Close' button in the Close Votes page?
Having just  from any of the queues, it was reviewing close votes; however, this audit was flawed in that I didn't even cast a close vote.  Often I press the Close button to preview greater detail and sentiment of the closure, spawning the Why should this question be closed dialog box:    Especially for duplicates, where functionality is solely dependent on spawning this dialog.  From Closing > Duplicate, I can search or view selected duplicates:    Although, I realize general closure reasons are summarized on the page:    This question had 6-upvotes, but seemed very localized referencing subjective query is "taking too long" and even had a sqlfiddle link.  Maybe overly broad regarding performance tuning, the OP was posting like a forum with two answer posts to his own question  and  with one of those answers asking follow-up questions.    Wanting to gauge community response, current closure totals struck my curiosity.  So, I pressed the Close button and boom - oh, the humanity!  I failed, and didn't even cast a close vote.    Votes are not cast until a reason for closure is selected and Vote to Close is pressed.  Taking any review very seriously on this site, it only seems fair that my review quality is tested through actionable steps instead of clicking for more detailed information, leveraging the functional design of the close vote user interface.  Sure, it's complex to seed fake vote totals, and then there's controversy of mindless voting in the majority or people who simply cherry pick 4-vote questions.  Still though, it seems unfair I should hesitate to review further information of vote totals and duplicates before skipping due to the implementation of this audit.
Proof of an equality involving cosine $\sqrt{2 + \sqrt{2 + \cdots + \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{2}}}}\ =\ 2\cos (\pi/2^{n+1})$ so I stumbled upon this equation/formula, and I have no idea how to prove it. I don't know how should I approach it: $$ \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{2 + \cdots + \sqrt{2 + \sqrt{\vphantom{\large A}2\,}\,}\,}\,}\ =\ 2\cos\left(\vphantom{\Large A}\pi \over 2^{n + 1}\right) $$  where $n\in\mathbb N$ and the square root sign appears $n$-times.  I thought about using sequences and limits, to express the LHS as a recurrence relation but I didn't get anywhere.  edit: Solved, thanks for your answers and comments. How do I manage how many revisions snapd keeps of an application? Is there any shorter pronunciation of W than double-U? When spelling, every letter in the Alphabet is pronounced by a single syllable, with the only exception of W being pronounced "double-U". (Fun fact, in German it's approximately pronounced like the "ve" in very, but in some strike of cosmic justice Y is pronounced "Yps-e-lon") Why is that? Is there any at least semi-officially accepted one-syllable alternative pronunciation of W?  I checked some related post, e.g. , but they are more concerned with the "Why?" instead of the "Why not different?" What exactly is a photon? Pre-generate Review audits to avoid the lag?

The special linear group $\text{SL}_n(\mathbb{R})$ is its own commutator Let $SL_n(\mathbb{R})$ be the set of $n\times n$ matrix with determinant one. Where can I find a proof that $[SL_n(\mathbb{R}),SL_n(\mathbb{R})]=SL_n(\mathbb{R})$? I've seen this result mentioned in several places, but couldn't find a proof.  For reference, the commutator $[SL_n(\mathbb{R}),SL_n(\mathbb{R})]$ is defined as the group generated by the set of all elements of the form $a^{-1}b^{-1}ab$, with $a,b\in SL_n(\mathbb{R})$.

Using a 'corporate author' in the "author" field of a bibliographic entry (spelling out the name in full) I want to list a company name in the author field of a bibliographic entry:  @book{CUDA,   author    = {NVIDIA Corporation},   title     = {NVIDIA CUDA Compute Unified Device Architecture Programming Guide},   publisher = {NVIDIA Corporation},   year      = {2007} }   But the entry keeps showing up "N.

Is there a formula to calculate the number of cells in a column that are shaded (or not shaded) a certain color?  For example: 20 of the cells are gray and 31 are not gray (shaded any other color) and instead of manually counting them, it calculates this at the bottom of reach column.
