I'm having serious problems installing the Broadcom drivers for Ubuntu. It worked perfectly on my previous version, but now, it is impossible.   What are the steps to install Broadcom wireless drivers for a BCM43xx card?  I'm a user with no advance knowledge in Linux, so I would need clear explanations on how to make, compile, etc.    lspci -vnn | grep Network showed:   Broadcom Corporation BCM4322 802.11a/b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller [14e4:432b]      iwconfig showed:  lo        no wireless extensions. eth0      no wireless extensions.

Continuous function on R which tends to infinity on open interval must have a minimum Suppose we have $f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ continuous and $$\lim\limits_{x \to \pm \infty} f(x) = \infty.$$  Then must $f$ have a minimum on $\mathbb{R}$?  Intuitively it seems so, and it's easy to prove for some arbitrary closed interval in $\mathbb{R}$ with the Extreme Value Theorem, but how can we apply that to an open interval like $(-\infty, \infty)$? Problem: Let $X$ and $Y$ be independent and suppose that each has a $\text{Uniform}(0,1)$ distribution. Let $Z = \min\{X, Y\}$. Find the density $f_Z(z)$ for $Z$. Hint: It might be easier to first find $\mathbb{P}(Z &gt; z)$.  Attempted Solution:  Given that $X, Y \sim \text{Uniform}(0,1)$, how do we not just have the following?  $$ f_Z(t) = f_X(t) = f_Y(t) = \begin{cases} 1 &amp; \text{if } 0 \le t \le 1 \\                                           0 &amp; \text{otherwise}                             \end{cases} $$  Of course I'm highly suspicious of this answer because it's not making use of the fact that $X$ and $Y$ are independent, nor is it making use of the provided hint. Why is it possible to answer a question twice? You normally answer a question and you have the opportunity to answer again. The second time, a message is shown suggesting the use of the edit tool, but I think it's kind of wrong. I mean, if you answer something and then you want to say anything else you know that you must use edit.  Why not disable the answer button if you already have an answer? Infinite amount of flags I have been going through some old posts, flagging them as necessary. But I have noticed that the number of posts that I am able to flag is continually staying at ten. It seems that the new flagging system has messed this up.  I am able to keep flagging posts even after 10, so I know it isn't a UI bug. This is a very big problem, because I can flag infinitely many times. And I am pretty sure this isn't the intended behavior of the overlords This isn't because I am being awarded more flags. I flag more than 13 posts in 5 minutes, and I can keep going without restriction  Some of the flags were accepted, so now my number is up to 13. But it is still staying at 13 Can you use Skyrim Legendary Edition mods on the normal edition? I just figured out I had Skyrim in my Steam games. It's the 32-bit non-Legendary Edition Skyrim without any DLCs. Can I still use Legendary Edition mods on it? Error -504 on appliation installation Yes. I've read all other questions regarding this problem. Like this one:  It's the same problem as this one but with more background information and an other app:   The details: My device is an Ulefone Be Touch 2 running Android 5.0.  My connection is perfect. To be sure I tried different networks, among them are 3G, 4G and wifi on ADSL, VDSL, cable and fiber. I've also used Tor and 3 different VPN providers in 3 countries on 2 continents. Let's say I ruled the network out.   A single app does not install: OpenKeychain.  Currently I have 126 apps installed. It does not install via desktop browser > play store > install button.    I have enough free space (40GB). The app is 7MB.   Re-adding Google account and clearing caches did not work.    Even a complete device wipe and re-install didn't work.     Downloaded the apk and tried manual installation, same error.   I also own a Nexus 7 (2013 wifi) and the app installs fine on that device. Why does the weighing balance restore when tilted and released I'm talking about a Weighing Balance shown in the figure:    Press &amp; Hold on onside of the horizontal beam and then release it. It makes some oscillations and comes back to equilibrium like shown in the figure.  Both the pans are of equal equal masses. When the horizontal beam is tilted by an angle using external force, the torque due to these pan weights are equal in magnitude &amp; opposite in direction. Then why does it come back to it position? What's making it to come back? Getting "Not found" message when running a 32-bit binary on a 64-bit system I have currently a strange problem on debian (wheezy/amd64).  I have created a chroot to install a server (i can't give any more detail about it, sorry). Let's call its path /chr_path/. To make things easy, I have initialized this chroot with a debootstrap (also wheezy/amd64).  All seemed to work well inside the chroot but when I started the installer script of my server I got : zsh: Not found /some_path/perl (the installer includes a perl binary for some reasons)  Naturally, I checked the /some_path/ location and I found the "perl" binary. file in chroot environment returns :  /some_path/perl ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, not stripped   The file exists, seems ok, has correct rights. I can use file, ls, vim on it but as soon as I try to execute it - ./perl for example - I get : zsh: Not found ./perl.  This situation is quite understandable for me. Moreover :   I can execute other basic binaries (/bin/ls,...) in the chroot without getting errors I have the same problems for other binaries that came with the project When I try to execute the binary from the main root (/chr_path/some_path/perl), it works. I have tried to put one of the binaries with a copy of my ls. I checked that the access rights were the same but this didn't change anything (one was working, and the other wasn't) When should a supervisor be an author? I understand that in a lot of big-lab fields it is common for the principal investigator to append their name to a paper even if they did not write the paper, design the experiment, or collect data since they spend energy securing funding, and managing the whole lab. What about for small labs?  What are the requirements for a supervisor to be included as an author on a paper, as opposed to just appearing in the acknowledgements? If you are working on your own projects independently of your supervisor, but using funding provided by your supervisor (how does this change when the funding provides resources versus just your salary), are you suppose to add them as authors or just acknowledge the source of funding? Programmatically obtaining Big-O efficiency of code I wonder whether there is any automatic way of determining (at least roughly) the Big-O time complexity of a given function?  If I graphed an O(n) function vs. an O(n lg n) function I think I would be able to visually ascertain which is which; I'm thinking there must be some heuristic solution which enables this to be done automatically.  Any ideas?  Edit: I am happy to find a semi-automated solution, just wondering whether there is some way of avoiding doing a fully manual analysis. How to join a LAN / IPX game on Diablo 1? Recently some of my friends and I grew nostalgic about the original Diablo and realized we've never truly tried the multiplayer aspect of that game. So we set up a modern VPN LAN solution via tuungle (using the appropriate IPX Wrappers) but the problem is, while any of us can manage to create session in Diablo FULL, others cannot find a way to join my IPX/LAN game.  There are no "join" buttons in the game itself.  I've read somewhere that Spawn version is a trial version but can be used to join Multiplayer games. If they can, is it possible for them to play the entire game on LAN or is trial restricted from choosing some classes/accessing some areas?  Or are there some other ways to join? Is it possible to host a web server from behind a NAT My PC is behind a NAT router that has a public IP address. If I want to host a website then I believe I need a domain name which I can purchase from some site which would pledge to resolve all DNS requests for that domain name and send the IP address of my NAT router (assuming I do not want to host my domain name on their servers). Now I want to host a web server on my computer.   What changes should be done to the NAT router's configuration to forward all HTTP requests for example.com to my PC in the internal network. Is the above strategy correct? Is it commonly used? Have you used any of the C++ interpreters (not compilers)? I am curious if anyone have used UnderC, Cint, Cling, Ch, or any other C++ interpreter and could share their experience. How can I exclude API keys, passwords, and so on from configuration management? I am using Drupal 8 and drush cex to commit my configuration to my repository.  However, I want to keep passwords and API keys out of the repository.  How do I do that? (selectively exclude sensitive information from configuration management).  For example, I'm using the  module, but I noticed that in addition to the SMTP server and sender's name, etc., it also exports the API key to code, which should not be exposed.  I want to manage module configuration with configuration management, but I don't want to commit the key. Why is area of a surface of revolution integral $2\pi y~ds$? not '$dx$'? In electromagnetism, why does nature prefer the right-hand rule over the left-hand rule? At school I learnt the  to remember the resulting direction of different phenomena, such as geometrical cross products, mechanical torque, or the direction a screw will move when turning it. This directions are however decided by humans, and we could have easily defined the directions in the opposite way.  However the right hand rule also predicts phenomena which is not arbitrarily set by humans, but is intrinsic to the nature. If you have a coil in which you put some current, and the nature creates a magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to it, the direction depends on the right hand rule.  My question is, why this direction and not the opposite? Nature tends to be symmetric and not have apparent preferences for two equal options, so in a so why is one direction preferred over the other one? Why doesn't a "left hand" rule apply? What are the differences between consumer grade SSDs and the much more expensive enterprise SSDs? I am in need of a terabyte or so of storage space for Lucene indices on a testing server.  I'm having a hard time differentiating between disks like the  for about $450 vs  of dollars.  What concerns should I have regarding the 840 evo, and what should I be looking for?  This server will be used strictly for in-house testing purposes by our development team and will have to put up with periodic load testing. Here's what is happening; everytime I go to Stack Overflow (stackoverflow.com, NOT meta) with Firefox, it gives me the "Welcome back" tab that pops up from the top. Whenever I click in the "click here to refresh the page" link, all it does is refresh the page without logging me back in.  Even if I try to log in using the "log in" button at the top, all it does is pop up the tab that says "Welcome name here, you're being redirected." The problem is I'm not being logged in, not to mention that it keeps refreshing the page over and over again without giving me a choice to log in with Facebook.  For some reason, I was capable of logging in to Meta Stack Overflow using Firefox. I am still unable to log in to Stack Overflow. Any ideas? Before:  After:   The pros:  Speeds up the tag synonym voting process. Easier to locate (as opposed to navigating to each individual tag wiki page). Encourages users to vote on more than one at a time.  The cons:  Serial up/downvoting. But this really isn't even an issue because, (1) only experienced users can vote on tag synonyms, and (2) more than one vote is required to approve a tag synonym, so the occasional serial up/downvoter won't significantly impact the overall process. I have just had my broadband upgraded to  which means my router has had to change. Previously I was using a Thomson TG585v7 ADSL thingy provided by my ISP. One nice thing about that router was that it would act as a local DNS and allow me to find my other machines on the network by using &lt;hostname&gt;.lan instead of IP addresses.  I've now switched to a Linksys WRT320N ethernet router which connects to my fibre modem, and which I've updated to the latest firmware (1.0.04). I have 2 machines on the network which I regularly want to connect to each other; one is running Windows 7 and the other is running OS X Lion.  The problem I'm having is that I'm unable to connect to my Win7 machine from the OS X machine using the Win7 machine's name. However, I'm able to ping the OS X machine from my Win7 machine using the hostname.
